Arden At Library

Anders started going to the library when he was 6 months old because he was really afraid of strangers (怕生) and I hoped that he would become more social by meeting and playing with other kids. Now Arden is also 6 months old and I started taking her along too. She’s the opposite. She was very excited. She smiled at everyone and let anyone to hold her.

Anders also played a good brother role. I was worried that Anders would get jealous and fighting for sitting on my laps like what he always did at home. Surprisingly, he was very nice to Arden. He sit on my side and let Arden to be on my lap; he went for the toys and played by himself; he grabbed toys to Arden and “asked” her to play; he ran away by himself when he wanted to play something else. He did not demand for Mommy at all.

Here are photos of Arden at Hayward Library and video of independent Anders. Kaitlin was also calling uncle Harrison from the library.
