Bye Bye 2007

As mummy typing this bye bye note to 2007, you are in your lala-land.
Today also an easy night for me as i don't have to let you sleep in my arm and do story telling. After you've done with your milk, you pull my hand over to you, asking me to lye beside you, and very fast, you are in your lala-land.

What an active baby!

Today you didn't take your afternoon nap, so around 6pm, you walked like drunk person, keep hitting yourself here and there. So quickly, mummy fed you dinner and off, we headed back. Deep in my heart i wish you will fall asleep as soon as we reached home, but from my previous experience, i know u will not. As you will be able to see the bright sky from our room, so you will not sleep as long as you can see some bright light....

Daddy and mummy mess around with you in the room for close to 40 mins. You roll on the bed, move here and there and you even do some china acrobatic on the bed!
Daddy said " Bb, do you think we still need to send him to Tumble Tots?"
Mummy **no eyes see**

Since there is no way we can make you sleep and both me and daddy haven't take our dinner, so mummy suggested to bring you out to Queensbay Mall. Thank god, we have one mall nearby our house! Off, we went to QBM.

We decided to have dinner at the food court and again another surprises for us. You sat in the high chair throughout the dinner time. Mummy gave you a small amount of rice on a big plate, together with fork and spoon, for you to learn how to self feed and at the same time keep you busy with something new.

After dinner, we went around the mall for a while as daddy need to look for his magazine. Mummy let you sit in the shopping trolley and push you around the ground floor. As we pass by each shop lot, as soon as you see any Christmas tree with blinking light, you will "wahhh". And going to the mall and come home with empty hand is not mummy's style, so again mummy bought you one shirt and pants! yeah! When mummy paying money for the shopping, suddenly i heard you shouting "WAH!!!" loudly....you saw the Christmas tree at first floor. Not to disappointed you, daddy brought you up to first floor to look at the big Christmas tree while mummy went to pay the parking ticket.

When we reached home, after taking milk you went to lala-land. Wow, mummy doesn't even need to do any story telling, what an easy night for me!

First time in swimming pool

Mummy has been thinking to bring you for a swimming session few months ago. But somehow, mummy doesn't have the opportunity to bring you play in water...until yesterday, i told daddy that i WANT to let you wear on your mickey swim suit that i bought when you were 10 mths old and bring you to Penang Swimming Club to play water!You woke up from your afternoon nap at 5:10pm, and thanks to our dear doggies, their noise woke you up, else mummy not sure what time you will wake up from your nap. So quickly, we change ourselves and off, we headed to Penang Swimming Club.

Today's weather quite nice as there is lots of people by the beach. When we were at the Club House, wow, lots of people in the pool, both adult and baby pool. And guess what? We met Jing Ee mei mei, but too bad, she already done with her water playing session, so both of you don't get to play water together. Aunty Asher said next time we can date each other for water playing session!

Actually the water a bit cold and when daddy bring you down into the pool, initially you a bit reluctant to go into the water. Daddy then let you walk into the water slowly, step by step, and very fast, you start to enjoy yourself! You keep moving around as if you are swimming around the pool by yourself. Mummy gave you the arm float but you refuse to use it, so poor daddy need to carry you and move around in the water.

You get so excited seeing so many ke ke and che che in the pool, and you keep walk towards them. Mummy and daddy need to keep drag you further from them as we afraid they might accidentally kick your face. And when the water splash onto your face, it doesn't seems to bother you, you just use your hand to wipe your face. Too bad, mummy forgot to bring along some toy for you to play in the water. You keep going after other people's ball. Ok, ok, next time mummy will remember to bring some toy for you to play in the pool huh

We played in the pool for around 30 mins then daddy decided to call the day off. Luckily we don't have any hard time pulling you out from the pool! good job baby, you behave very well...so this make us want to bring you for another swimming session in near future. Next Tue? Hmm...Since it's public holiday!

Since there is only daddy, mummy and you, so mummy need to shower you alone in the ladies. No choice. Luckily you very cooperative with mummy. And we both survived!!! Mummy even managed to wash your hair for you. Mummy quickly towel dry your hair and your body so that you won't catch cold, then bring you out to meet with daddy so that mummy can take my shower and have our dinner at the Captain's Desk restaurant. Daddy waiting for us outside the ladies with worry face, and proudly, mummy told him that we managed to survive without any problem!!!

Quickly, i shower myself and meet with you guys as i'm hungry!! Mummy ordered kid spaghetti for you, fried rice for daddy and hot dog sandwich for myself. To my surprise, you even know how to slurrrrppp the spaghetti in without any noise. Other than that, you even remain in your high chair throughout the dinner. Daddy and mummy manage to have an uninterrupted, peaceful dinner! GOOD JOB baby! After dinner, we went to library for a while before we headed back to our home sweet home.

Your 2nd Christmas celebration

Merry Christmas, my sweetie pie! Mummy made a silly mistake by telling daddy that they will be a Christmas eve celebration at Penang Swimming Club.So we quickly had out dinner and headed to the club.

When we reached there, there is ample of parking, so mummy started to feel something not right. When we walked towards the old deck, no singing sound..and it's so quiet. No one there.....and then...only mummy realised that, oops...usually during Christmas eve, people will go to church for prayers or whatever it is called. So we walked around the club, taking pics, then headed back to our home sweet home !

Merry Christmas, baby!

Me and my Sunday

How i spend my Sunday? Of course is busy walking around the house exploring every single corner of the house. Now i don't need daddy or mummy to carry me, i can walk to wherever i want, isn't that cool?!

But...one thing i don't understand is, when i don't know how to walk, the adult always encourage me to walk, but now, they keep follow me wherever i go, and whatever i do, they will give advise, telling me CAN or CANNOT do! Sometimes it really bother me, coz i don't get to do things that i want.

I love climbing the stairs! It's so fun. But i am not allow to do it alone, ARGH! Don't understand, can you please tell me why? How come daddy and mummy can go up down up down the stairs many many times per day all by themselves and i can't. Maybe i need to wait till i am 2 yrs old then only can do it by myself?

By the way, do i look cool in this attire? Mummy said i look like big boy by wearing this way. **wink**wink**

What’s wrong with you??

For the past few weeks, you kept getting BIG ANG PAU , at home and in nursery.

8-Dec
You fell at home and hit your lips on the Saturday. You were playing with the curtain at Ah Kong’s house and you were basically enjoy yourself very very much. Every time when you over-laugh, it will follow by a fall as you used up most of your energy laughing, so u will walk senget and fell. This time u were sort like doing pumping, moving yourself up and down from the floor. And after 2 times, finally, it followed by a loud crying sound instead of laughing. Quickly, mummy carried you to the kitchen, look for Ee-poh and she said eating sugar and stop the bleeding , whatsoever, so just to calm you down, we let you take some sugar…YES, u stop crying, and start asking for more sugar, keep pointing at the sugar and said “mum mummmm”. YES, sugar stop you from crying, I think mainly it divert your attention..hahaha! After that, you TOTALLY forgot about the incident and start playing with the curtain again!

10-Dec
You fell down and hurt your lips as you DANCE when teacher Chuah sing song.
Salute you! Just learn how to walk and now want to dance with legs up some more! Dear, don’t be so aggressive, learn how to balance yourself first then only dance with legs up, ok?

17-Dec
When I picked you up, aunty Dianna told me you knocked on your face while you are playing with the wheels of the walker. NEAR to your eyes, ok!!! Really gave me a big shock and thanks the daddy, he kept asking me to check whether your eyes are ok or not, and this make me even worried. What I did was, move my fingers left right and check whether you are following my direction or not, thank god, u r and there isn’t any redness in your eyes, phew!!

According to aunty Dianna, you were playing with the walker and you suddenly decided to squad down to play with the wheels of the walker, and I bet u doesn’t know how to adjust your distace and end up you hit on the walker. And according to Miss Goh, sometimes u will lay on the floor, playing with the wheels too! Geez, u like wheels so much, what makes u LOVEEEE wheels so much huh!!

20-Dec
After lunch, you decided to play with the curtain again. Before any of us stop you from playing with it, here u go, u lost your balance and fell on your lips again..duh...another light bleeding. Mummy quickly carry you and distract you with other thing. Luckily you stop crying right immediately. And later, start walk around and mess up the house again.

I guess there is no way mummy can protect you from falling down, this is part and puzzle of growing. But, baby, can you pls be more careful and don't give so much heart attack surprises to mummy.

My cellphone!

See, what my ah kong gave me? His old Nokia cellphone. Isn’t that cool? I can “hello hello” with my mummy, daddy, Ah Kong , Ah Ma, Ee Poh anytime!
But my mummy always keep it away from me, coz I will just throw it away when I am bored playing with it.

Mummy said Ah Kong will scold if I spoil the phone, but Ah Kong gave it to me already…thought it’s mine, how come Ah Kong will scold me if I broke my own toy.
Sigh, sometimes, adult very misleading and confusing!

Wait, lemmi “hello hello” with Ah Kong and double check with him again!

My little magnet

You like to play with those magnets that mummy put on the fridge door. Since most of them are small, so we need to supervise you while you are playing with it..until……when I purchased cloth diaper for you, I got this from Sandra!

Ta…daaaa…I put it at the lower portion of the fridge so that u can help yourself playing with it. At initial stage, you have hard time to pull it out, but after few practices, you are able to do it yourself. Practice make perfect huh!

Finally…I have sandals!

Mummy bought u a new sandal on Saturday, and you seems get annoyed by the blinking light everytime u step on it. You will walk and whenever u sees the light, u will sit down and try to catch it!! Mummy found it fun and bought it for you, but end up, you found that it’s not fun.

So what shall we do with the shoes? It becomes one of your toys!!! You will press on the shoes and let the light blink non stop…duh!

Mummy, diaper and you.

You are getting more and more cheeky and helpful nowadays. The first time I taught you throw your own diaper, you were very excited. So now, every time after we change your diaper for you, if we forgot to let you throw it yourself, you will scream scream and scream until…we let
you take your own diaper and throw it!

And mummy like to tease you, saying your diaper is so full and you will point at your diaper, and sometimes, you will walk to me with a new diaper, giving me the instruction “mummy, time to change diaper!”

My little boy seems growing up , now, can give instruction to mummy huh!

When I say...

“Baby, show me one”, you will…

"Baby, how the roti-man ting ting ting?", you will .....
(don't know how he comes out with this sign, he will move his hand with finger up left and right, showing us roti-man is on the way!!)
“Baby, every morning when you wake up, what will you do ?”, you will ….

New game!

As you are able to walk by yourself nowadays, mummy found that it's easier for me and you. You will walk to wherever you want, and play with whatever thing that within your reachable limit. But of course, we need to keep our eyes close on you as you are exploring the whole house especially the kitchen area!

Since we bought you a new container to keep your clothes, so mummy let you play with it before i use it to keep your clothes. You seems enjoy sitting in the container, haha!

Ah Kong's little helper

Ah Kong washed his shoes today and since i'm so free, nothing to do, as daddy not at home, i have no one to bully play with, so i decided to help mess up with Ah Kong's shoe.

I choose one side of the shoes then carry it, walk around the house. Geez, the shoe is so so so heavy and my hand so tired holding it, but it's fun! New toy!!! Mummy happy seeing me playing with this, as this is FOC toy! See, this is me and the shoe.
Surprises me, no one scolded me, they in fact clap their hands and laugh at me. **Scratch head, adult so confusing, sometime they will scold me, sometime they wont** Never mind, i enjoy myself very much! Would you like to join me?

My shoes

Mummy bought me this pair of shoes when i was around 8 mths old, but according to old wives tales, i am not suppose to wear it until i'm one yr old, so mummy has to keep it until.........i'm around 10 mths old, finally, they let me wear on it. There is a lion head on the shoes, and i like to pull the lion hair, few of the hairs being pulled off by me, but overall, the lion still in good shape. When i'm about 13 months, Teacher Chuah told mummy to get me another pair of shoes which is meant for walking baby. So this is what mummy get for me, a sport shoe like baby shoe.
After 2 months, when i' 14 months, i'm sort like out grown the shoe, my feet feel very tight, so time for mummy to get me another pair of new shoe. This is what we bought last night...I don't like this shoe as it's heavier than the previous one due to the shoe sole is hard, but since i'm big boy now, so i need to wear big boy shoe, no more baby shoe for me.

Mummy, i'm ready to sleep

Friday , we didn't go to Ah Kong's house as daddy and mummy need to meet up with the loan executive from Public Bank. Mummy asked the loan executive to come to our apt as i don't think you will like to stay in the noisy McDonalds for long hour. She's kind enough to come to our apt to explain the loan packages to daddy and mummy.

When daddy busy getting info from the loan executive, you were busy walking around in apt pant less, with diaper only. After a while, you felt tired and you walked into the bedroom, then pointed at the stereo, asking mummy to on it for you. After mummy switch on the stereo, you took your bolster, then lay on the bed, then follow by your favourite word "nen nen!" Mummy then prepared the milk for you and once you finished the milk, you went to la-la land.

What amazed mummy is, you lead me to the room, then asked me to switch on the stereo, grad your bolster then ask for milk, this is what we usually do for you every night, and you actually remember the whole sequence well. Good job, baby!

Cheese stick??

You used to have the cheese kids stick from Arla as your snack during the weekend. And, so coincident, you had the last cheese stick before you vommitted on that day. And daddy said it was the cheese that causes the tummy upset, but mummy don't think so. Daddy's statement made mummy feel so bad and guilty, but since the tummy upset happen more than a day, so i am sure it's not related to the cheese.

Shall we resume back the cheese eating schedule? Everytime when mummy feed you the cheese, you will keep asking for it and you love it soooo much!! Time to refill the cheese sticks!

You are my sunshine

Mummy feel sooo down on these few days, it was caused by my work. I have no mood to blog even though there is lots of fun moments that i want to write it down in this blog, but i just don't have mood to type it out. Finally, today....i decided, no matter what, i want to write something for you.

Whenever i look at your pic, i will turn fromto. So glad that i have you to cheer me up!

My little Japanese Table

Daddy and mummy brought you to Tesco on Saturday morning....while screen through the Tesco brochure, mummy spotted this! But i can't find it at the area where they displayed the cabinet and chairs, so mummy checked with the store personnel. He directed me to the other area in Tesco and when mummy get to that area, the super unfriendly lady told me that the stock not yet arrived. Mummy very disappointed, and then i saw the previous store personnel walked towards me...he is such a nice guy, he told mummy that he found out that the table is actually just right behind where we stood earlier, it's in the box, that's why both of us can't find it. He even offer mummy to carry the table to our shopping cart. As mummy can't find you and daddy, (we in fact walked half of the Tesco to find you and daddy), so at the end, mummy asked him to leave the table at the diaper area as i want to buy diaper for you.

In fact, Mummy has been searching high and low for a small table that suit you,and finally....yes, we found it!And..here u go, your small little dining and playing table.

You like it very much and you even spread out your toys on the table.....can you tell what is the background of the table? haha! It's dinosaurs background.

Little Pirate at home

Incident #1:

Early morning, after stretching yourself, you will insists us to bring you out to the living room. If daddy and mummy pretend sleeping, you will either call out Papa or Maaaa loud, or crawl to us, pull my hair or hit on daddy's face gently.

When you are out at the living room, you will request us to switch on your favourite music VCD for you. After that, you will walk to the TV cabinet, mess around with the DVD player. Not the end yet, then...you will play with the TV cabinet's sliding door, then...finally, ransack daddy's VCDs.


Incident #2

**See how the little pirate ransack the kitchen! The target is rice container!**

You will walk into the kitchen with his pirate flag, place the pirate flag on the rice container, then start hitting it real loud. Then you will open the cover, close it, open it, repeat for few times.

Can you spot the pirate flag?

This is the way i brush my teeth

I started to let Kelvin play with my and his toothbrush when he's around 12 months old. He shows strong interest on my toothbrush especially if it's with toothpaste. He will insists to hold my toothbrush and brush my teeth for me. But of course it will end up having toothpaste all over my face. But i think this is a good way of introducing toothbrush to him through playing.

Glad that, nowadays, whenever i pass him his toothbrush, he will put it into his mouth, brushing his teeth and at the same time biting the toothbrush

This is how you play with your toothbrush
