Monday：今天爸爸送他去，走的時候聽見娃哭了，但是似乎很快就停了。下午有點事耽誤了，我5點了才到DC，連爸爸都打電話以為我們已經回家了。去的時候有2個老師，隻剩3個娃。我在門外就看見一個金發的女娃和Lindsay在玩一個zoo的玩具，玩具上有一些pads, 把動物放上麵會發出動物的叫聲。女娃和老師互動地很好，可以和老師應答（我聽見她說elephant等），把動物往pad上放。我們家有個類似的玩具，所以娃應該會玩這個東西，但是崴隻是在旁邊站著看著他們玩，稍稍有點走動，雖然他每隻手上都捏著一個小動物/玩具。不知道他是害羞、語言不夠好、還是沒有得到足夠的鼓勵。很快他就看見我站在門口，很急切地指著門想走。第一次和老師Lindsay說話，她說娃had a great day. 我問娃哭了沒，老師說在爸爸drop off的時候哭了一會兒。
今天的小插曲是，早上車都開走了，爸爸特地返回拿了厚夾克和褲子，說隻有11度。我10點到公司，覺得氣溫很溫和，擔心娃穿的太多，特別是回到室內，就給supervisor打電話。Supervisor說這個老師會掌握，但是還是替我看了一眼，回來說現在屋子裏氣溫也不高。我就問娃是不是還穿這那條很厚的有fleece的灰褲子，supervisor說是的，如果熱了老師會給他換的。我難受了一陣，說服了自己不糾結這種細節。我接娃的時候，他穿著比較薄的褲子，但是長袖衫上還罩了一件棉線的前開口的sweater, 而那個金發的女孩穿的是短袖T恤。。。 br>
比較困擾我的是，娃的behavior變差了。上周四（去DC第3天）睡前娃大哭一場以後，每天晚上讓他睡覺都變得非常困難，不讓我們關燈。不是怕黑，是不想睡覺。昨天竟然在關了大燈後（有微弱的night light）還把lego火車等拿到床上玩。還有其他時候也特別任性，家裏人包括我媽都覺得他上DC後脾氣明顯變壞了。原來讓他幹什麽不願意的事（比如換衣服尿片），或者讓他停止他喜歡做的事，他隻是哼唧幾下就停了，現在能哭鬧很久。因為timing太巧合, 不知道是不是在DC從其他小朋友那裏學的。
Tuesday:
Daddy dropped Alex off. He was not thrilled either in parking lot or inside. I arrived DC at 4:30pm, not many kids were there. I didn't enter the door but Alex saw me soon. He was eating a cracker. Both Heather and Lindsay came over to the door and told me Alex had the best day ever. He was laughing, babbling/talking. After nap, he pointed to the ceiling babbling, probably wanting to play with the string. Heather said I should be very proud of him. While we were talking, Alex walked to me and waved bye to teachers with smiles on his face.
He seemed happier at home as well. He had a great dinner, asking for more pork bone soup. We went to the school playground after dinner. On the way back he saw Jiajia taking a walk with her friend (Michal's grandma), he was not happy to see her walking away from us. Bedtime was better as well. He still didn't want the light on in his room but didn't fuss for long. I brought him to the king bed and gave him my bra. He likes to play with the strings on it, which acts like a soother for him. In the middle of the night(4-5am), I saw his arm in the loop of the string and tried to put the bra away. But he protested by moaning. I was surprised he was actually half-awake at that hour.
Wednesday:
We arrived DC at 9:30 today. He behaved very much the same like yesterday. Most of the panda class were outside. Lisa took him out while he was crying.
I stayed for the longest time today (about 10-15min) to observe him. He stopped crying pretty soon and was playing with some toys with mirrors (i couldn't see very well) when Lisa went back to put on his hat/outdoor shoes. One teach from Teddy class was sitting in the sandbox edge surrounded by kids. Alex lingered around, walked close from the teacher's behind to see or listen but didn't climb in the sandbox. He stood there for several minutes (appeared doing nothing much other than looking at somewhere). He tried to ride several vehicles (including a lawn mow which is not supposed to be a ride toy) but didn't succeed. He walked close to watch/listen when another Teddy teacher used a bucket to gather water from the tap but still didn't stand very close. After a while, he started to play with a school bus and some other vehicles. He transported them to the other end of the playground where there was a hay stack. He "drove" them on the pile of hay. During the whole time, no teacher came to talk to him or help.
In the evening, I suggested we let Alex practise riding toy vehicles at home to build his confidence. He played with the dump truck and fire truck in the basement for a long time. We also called parents for advice. Mom said we should talk to teachers more to show our interest in our kid's happiness and development.
Thursday:
Alex behaved pretty much the same like previous days at drop-off, tears dropping on my hand. I carried him outside. One of the Teddy class teacher took him over. Heather talked to me and said he was doing great yesterday and said:"Look, he stopped crying already". I went to the Teddy room and saw him holding his dog while observing. He saw a teacher reading a book to other kids but didn't walk closer. Then I saw Heather went over and handed him some small toys and showed him a farm house or sth. I left with some relief.
Daddy picked him up. He was walking around, near other kids. He started from the library area and walked with the rockabye baby book to the middle of the room when he saw daddy. he then smiled and went over to meet dad. He was eager to go but didn't insist on his dog. The teacher said he isn't talking too much to them yet but is playing a lot now. The log says he was riding bikes yesterday and playing with houses today.
Friday:
It was raining early in the morning. Alex has been going to DC for 4 days and I think he could use a break. I asked Mom to bring him to YMCA Early Years Center. He was not very happy on the way and yelled a little when I left. But when I picked him up he was happily playing and didn't want to leave. We went to Early Years on Sat. morning, Alex was singing with the teacher and very excited about the sponges in the soapy water and crawl tube. I wish he was this happy at DC.

他最近老是把一隻手放嘴裏，另一隻手還拿著玩具，不知道是不是長牙，如果這樣，也許能解釋他為何最近這麽fussy。還有就是連著幾天發現屁屁上有一層薄薄的poo, 有時候是剛拉過的，不知道是不是爸爸說的跑步引起的。最近一周一個明顯的變化是在家裏喜歡玩lego小火車, Thomas火車/軌道等。但是娃很容易frustrated, 比如他發現Thomas火車車廂有磁鐵，但是磁鐵有南北極的，所以有時候吸不到一起，他就開始煩。或者有時候lego/mega-block放不好他也急，可以想象在DC老師不可能象我們這樣關注他，他肯定會frustrated.
