I really wanted to see the third Madagascar movie, so when I saw that it was coming up at mommy&baby movie, I had to be there. \u00a0Babulya also wanted to see it so off to the movies we went. The bonus…. it was in 3D. So mommy and Babulya were sporting coll 3D glasses and Ilyusha couldn’t miss that too. He decided that he wants to watch the movie as well. \u00a0He was not content with just seating and sleeping in his car seat and spent part of the movie in mommy’s arms looking at other people wearing glasses. \u00a0He did finally fall asleep … for the 20 min at the end of the movie! Even though I spent a lot of time in the isle, trying to get Ilyusha to sleep, I did enjoy this movie a lot!!! \u00a0When the movie was over, Ilyusha was still sleeping (notwithstanding that it was time for his feeding), so I was hoping I can get home before he wakes up. Yea right! \u00a0Ilyusha was up the moment we reached our car in the parking lot, and then it was a mad dash to find a place to feed. The line up at the feeding place was humongous, so we run to Sears and asked to use one of their change rooms (and a nice lady there gave us the biggest room, so we could fit in the stroller!)<\/p>\n
Tuesday (June 19)<\/strong><\/p>\n Today, my friend, Joanna, came over for a visit. \u00a0She played with Ilyusha a bit and promised to come back with her girls. Ilyusha also got a cool new toy and two sets of clothes.<\/p>\n In the evening, after we put Ilyusha down for the night, Ilyusha turned over from his back to his tummy by wiggling his legs high in the air (he was swaddled). As our pediatrician was very adamant that it is too early for Ilyusha to sleep on his tummy, we got out rollers for him to sleep with so he would not be rolling around in his sleep.<\/p>\n Wednesday (June 20)<\/strong><\/p>\n First of all it was HOT outside, it was really really HOT!!! In addition we had a very busy day planned for Ilyusha & I.<\/p>\n First was a play date at Toma’s house. \u00a0She has a nice pool, but because it was so hot, we could only spend a few minutes outside before hurrying up inside. \u00a0Here are some pictures from our gathering.<\/p>\n Ilyusha & Yonik together \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0fighting for attention<\/p>\n Ilyusha & me… just chilling<\/p>\n Yulya & Dashenka \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Yonik using Mila’s swing, and she is checking him out \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Once we got home, we only had a few moments to rest as it was our uncle Emil’s birthday! and we were getting ready for his birthday party. Since there were a lot of people the party was held outside. \u00a0Ilyusha spent some time going from one set of arms to another, and then it was time for his evening feed and bed time. \u00a0We put Ilyusha upstairs in Julia & Emil’s house, but he wasn’t that crazy about sleeping in a different place and it took forever for him to actually fall asleep. Mommy was exhausted and needed a drink (virgin though). Luckily, once he felt asleep he didn’t stir until it was time for his night feeding (when we took him home).<\/p>\n Thursday (June 21)<\/strong><\/p>\n Was Ilyusha’s \u00a03 month check up. \u00a0He is growing up fast!<\/p>\n His weight was 7.22 kg<\/p>\n Height 68 cm<\/p>\n Head size 41 cm<\/p>\n Overall, his pediatrician was happy with the progress Ilyusha is making!<\/p>\n Friday (June 22)<\/strong><\/p>\n It was a quiet day, and then in the afternoon Kira came with Antoshka to see Ilyusha and brought a present for him (a top and jeans shirts \ud83d\ude42 )<\/p>\n My camera on the phone started to work again, so I’ve been snapping pictures of Ilyusha during the day.<\/p>\n Ilyusha had a very rough time sleeping during his nap time, so I did what I wasn’t supposed to do. I took him to sleep with me. \u00a0Here are some pics. Finally some peace and quiet…<\/p>\n After a nap, I had one happy baby!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ilyusha and his favourite tree.<\/p>\n Although here it looks like he is more interested in the camera than his tree<\/p>\n “Mom, what are you doing?” \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Hmmm…. how does this tree thing work……<\/p>\n “Mom, I can still see you hiding behind my toy!” \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Here, showing mama his tongue!<\/p>\n Then, he had fun with his burp cloth!!! Why buy expensive toys? A simple cloth is much more interesting!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We’ve been going to Shabbat dinner to either my sister’s place or to Alla & Sasha’s place, but this week decided to do it at home. It actually felt very nice to do the Shabbat prayers as our little family of 3.<\/p>\n My handsome little guy wearing a kippah!!! \u00a0This one is actually from our wedding <3<\/p>\n Everything is ready: candles – check, wine – check, challah – check! \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Mesmerized by the candle….<\/p>\n Saturday (June 23)<\/strong><\/p>\n Daddy was in charge in the morning as I had to run some errands. After I was done, the three of us went to have breakfast at Bagel World. \u00a0The remainder of the day was pretty quiet.<\/p>\n I put Ilyusha in his swing to take care of some business and gave him his two favourite \u00a0toys.<\/p>\n I came back to find him like this (making this face) \u00a0 The closer look\u00a0revealed that he had his arm through a hanging hook. \u00a0How did he manage that?<\/p>\n We also started sitting Ilyusha on the sofa when we are right there next to him. \u00a0He looks pretty comfy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n As we started to get ready for the trip, Ilyusha wanted to be with us all the time, so Yurka had him in his snuggly. \u00a0Not sure what this look says!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sunday (June 24)<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong>We spent some time outside to prepare a big boy stroller. The bassinet in the stroller was getting too small for Ilyusha, plus Ilyusha was not content anymore with just laying around and watching the sky (or more particularly the hood of the bassinet). So the decision was made to change it to the sitting stroller before the trip. Hope he likes it.<\/p>\n Yurka prepared a nice dinner (even if it doesn’t look appetizing on the photo, it was very yummy). \u00a0Ilyusha was at the dinner table (counter) with us. Looking at his reaction, he is already ready for something more solid than breast milk.<\/p>\n “Hmmm… what do you have there?” \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 “F… milk! I want this!” \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0“I can’t have this…. sad” (\u043f\u0435\u0447\u0430\u043b\u044c\u043d\u043e)<\/p>\n Busy week continues! \u00a0My phone camera was not working properly, so not that many pictures this week. Monday (June 18) I really wanted to see the third Madagascar movie, so when I saw that it was coming up at mommy&baby movie, I had to be there. \u00a0Babulya also wanted to see it so off to […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=144"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":263,"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144\/revisions\/263"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=144"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=144"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=144"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.littlebarsuchki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IlyushaYonik.June_.20.2012.jpg\" "\\"Ilyusha&Yonik.June.20.2012\\"")
