"What're we going to do tonight Brain?"

"... what we do every night Pinky... try to take over the world!"

This reminds me a bit of what we're doing now... waiting... everyday, maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow. but the same thing... for the past week+? haha. well, tomorrow will be 41 weeks! That means that little Sofia, you will be 1 week late (unless you decide to come out today, 11/18, being 40w+6d). Though tmrw is your grandma's birthday and also your great grandmothers birthday (based on lunar calendar for g-gma)... maybe you want to wait till then? Though I was hoping you'd have your own birthday... For sure now though, you will be a scorpio-sagittarius cusp, which is nice, since Sagittariuses are fun, firey, and mommy's best gf from college is actually a Sag. so we'll see.

Last night mommy couldn't sleep so well, even though I took an earlier nap- noon-3pm... still couldn't fall asleep till about 2am. My tummy is hurting too, and today feels quite stretching, like "jeurng"... i wonder if you're still growing, or if it's hopefully getting closer and closer. Only time will tell i guess. Patience, if anything, is the first lesson mommy is learning from you, and I'm sure there will be a lifetime more things and lessons you will teach both mommy and daddy. :)

Anyhow, the weather is getting colder here in HK... it's about 11 degrees today which is about 50; doesn't sound too cold, but it is gloomy. no sun. and wind. So it feels more like 40. but it's ok, as long as we don't get sick! B/c the crisp air and cold weather is a wonderful change from the hot and humid summer here. So i'd take this weather anyday... just need to bundle up some more and wear more layers! :)

Daddy cleaned up the box that was sitting in your crib area finally last night too... I think he found a lot of stuff and threw it out, kept it, whatever... but i think it was nice for him to go through, keepsakes. He found a journal he wrote from his post grad HS trip to europe, which basically was him high the entire time. I don't think you should read it until you grow up but it's quite funny.

Hopefully we can make your crib by this weekend... hopefully you too, decide to come out by this weekend! We know you will choose your day wisely... and a happy day it will surely be.

we love you little girl... hope you're staying healthy, happy, strong, and beautiful...

big hugs and kisses love mommy & daddy
