What's new with the kids?

Obviously, I've been missing out on updating my kids' blogs. So many things happening at home what with the house repairs ongoing, getting a new nanny, a job interview and Patrick's new job to boot!

Well, the kids are adjusting well to the new nanny, Bing, although when we were talking about that subject with Dana, she refused to have one. I guess she thought that I won't be there to take care of her. When Bing arrived though, Dana was very explorative with her, at first shy, then she was showing Bing her toys, her stuff which meant that she's okay with her :) Dylan was shy too but then he adjusted well too.

When I went to my job interview with Patrick, that was the first time we left the kids alone in the house. Fortunately, Den didn't have school at that time so Bing wasn't totally alone with the kids. Dylan spent a long time crying (which was to be expected). When we arrived, he immediately run to my side and hugged me tight.. he really missed me (aww). Dana was not too bothered when I left because she knew I'll be back anyway. We brought books for them and Krispy Kreme donuts :)

One other milestone for Dana was when we moved rooms to accommodate Bing. Dana and Den now share a bedroom. Dylan rooms with me and Patrick :) When I moved furniture around, we installed the ladder for the kids' double bed. Dana was fearful of climbing it but Dylan had no fear from it. When Dana saw that Dylan could do it, she found strength in doing it by herself too :) My kids are growing up so fast :)

Now she considers their bedroom as the "Girls' Room" since she's sharing it with Ate Den. She's just waiting for me to paint the room red when we've also replaced the window in their room :)
