Trimming my hair for my 2nd Chinese New Year

Today, my parents bought me to Suntec Junior League for a hair cut again. This was the third time I had my hair cut at this shop. Wow! Daddy and mummy were shocked to see so many bbs and their parents waiting patiently for their bbs turn to have their hair trimmed. By the way, we reached there around 3pm... so my mummy took a "lucky number" for my turn, it was no. 49. Hmm.. 10 more bbs to go before my turn, so we went to Carrefour to shop around and returned there in 45 mins time.. phew, finally it was my turn to have my hair trimmed. The aunty took about 20mins to trim my hair. Luckily, I can play with a robot (toys provided by the shop) and watching barney vcd.

Do you like my new hair style? Look more like boy boy already? Earlier on before I had my hair cut, the salon aunty still need to guess my gender leh.. pengz

Before
After

New toy storage box for my toys
This was my new toy storage box, slightly bigger than the previous and it had got wheels! Daddy bought this for me to store all my toys.. The moment I saw it, I pushed the box around the living room, I was a bit pek1 chek2, I do not know why also. But think after my daddy saw me doing this.. he removed all the wheels to prevent me from pushing the box liao. Hiaz.. :(

So bored!! yawnnn....
I am already 13 months+ liao, my mummy still put me inside this exersaucer. Can see in the video that I feel so bored ... but I guessed they just want to let me have a feel of the exersaucer before my daddy going to keep it. Since I no longer need to use it anymore..

Don't disturb
Mummy took this video when I was busy watching one of the 2 female finalist project superstar singing. "See mei2 nui3 no blink eyes" :p

Taking egg yolk
Yesterday and today, my mummy let me try eating 1/2 egg yolk & 1 egg yolk (hard boiled) respectively, taken with my porridge. The reason why she gave me egg yolk was because she heard that when I turn 15mths (in 2 mths time), I will need to take MMR injection (injections again!?!)
So, if let say I was allergy to egg yolk, then they may have to delay letting me take the jab. Luckily, I was offically clear with eating egg yolk. My mummy was so happy, she also hope that I will be able to eat hard boiled egg white and eventually the whole hard boiled egg in near future. So that she can give me more variety (ingredients with egg) to eat. Mummy, please take 1 step at a time. :p

Demonstrating the art of somersaulting
This evening, while I was happily standing on the sofa, giggling away, suddenly I somersaulted and fell onto the floor! Ouch! Luckily my mummy was sitting near me and she somehow managed to catch hold of me on time, thus preventing a "bah lu ku" from appearing on my head. The moment after the somersault, I was a bit shocked.. daddy then kept "scolding" me for not heedling his advice. Hiazz, how do I know i will end up in that way.. Daddy and mummy really hope that I would not do this again.

Practising Walking

2 days before I reach 13 months, I was trying to walk on my own. What I do was that I would stretched out both my hands to balance myself while walking. But don't know why I was caught in action doing "gongxi gongxi", maybe Chinese New Year is just around the corner or maybe because my daddy who was infront of me. haha My daddy and mummy cannot stop laughing whenever they see this video.... so funny huh?




This was another video of me walking... my daddy used his mobile phone to make me walk....

New toy cars from my daddy
Today, my daddy brought out his so called "limited edition" toycars for me to play. He bought those cars from Hong Kong last time when he went there for a holiday. There were 2 taxis, 1 bus and 1 Ferrari! Among them, I like the red Ferrari car the most. See, mummy even caught me drool-ing while playing with it. Aiyo, so pai sey leh. :p



Another video...

I was happily playing with the taxi, then halfway through, I was "eating" the coffee table.. Aiyo, the table so hard leh, I was like testing my teeth patience, checked whether were them as tough as diamonds. :p

It was a public holiday today, my daddy and mummy do not need to work. Yipee, does it mean more gai gai for me

Early this morning, while I was having my breakfast (my mummy feed me with instant oatmeal from nature farm) I saw daddy fixing a huge strange boards between the entrance of the living room and kitchen. Hmm.. what was that for? After I finished eating my oatmeal, I eagerly (making some noise) to ask my mummy to release me from my high chair...

I quickly had a feel of the safety gate, I keep playing peek-a-boo with my mummy when she was in the kitchen cooking my porridge. But not long later, my daddy took out the gate (within 3 hours after it was installed) I do not know what was the reason though. Anyway, I was happy that the gate was not installed, if not I would not be able to roam into the kitchen to explore. :p

Praying my late ye3 ye1
Yesterday was the last day of year 2006. My parents, together with my nai nai, shu shu, shen shen, gu zhang, gu gu and cousins brought me to a temple located in Geylang to offer prayers to my late ye ye.

As it was my first trip there, I kept crawling around the "praying area" to explore. (my daddy got no choice but to let me crawl).. As it was not so nice because I was giggling loud while crawling.. my daddy decided to carry me and put me into my pram.. hiaz...

After the trip we went to IMM for a short while before my parents head back home. I did not want take nap when I was back home because I already had it during the journey back home (In fact my daddy drove to East Coast then drove back to IMM.. in order to let me zzzz) So I only went to bed at 940pm. Who knows I woke my daddy and mummy up at 1150pm... they got no choice but to pat me back to sleep. While I was "going back" to my zzz land, it strucked 12midnight, our house was able to hear the fire works "pop pop pop" sound.. haha..maybe I want to be the 1st one to greet my parents a Happy 2007 New Year!!

HappY 2nd Year Wedding Anniversary

Finally, we had a family photo. The photo was taken during the christmas season. My daddy and mummy brought me to Marina Sq/Suntec again.
See, my "quan2 jia1 fu2" (in mandarin) ... posing in front of the Marina Square Shopping Center christmas decoration.

Pek4 Ki4 Pek4 Lok4

Eversince I have mastered the skill of climbing up and getting down from the sofa, my daddy and mummy was getting busier than usual. The reason was because they will need to keep a look out at me, having fear that I may fell down one day while climbing up halfway to the sofa.

Daddy and mummy, please don't get too worry. "Practise makes perfect", right? Kekeke.

Singapore Swimming

It has been raining since sunday (17 Dec 06). But yesterday's (19 Dec 06) rainfall was the 3rd highest in 75 years according to record. The total level of rainfall recorded between midnight and 8pm last night was 345mm - more than dec ave.. News reported that the northern part of singapore was flooded.
Sob Sob, so my nai nai cannot bring me go down walk walk and my mummy complained about my clothes were only able to totally dry after two days of hanging.

Hopefully the sun will come out, which it did today! :) But then, at 5pm in the evening, it started to rain again. :( Rain Rain go away, come again another day.. me WaNt To PlaY!!

2nd Trip to Changi Airport

No one in particular to fetch, just that after my pneumo jab, daddy wants me to have a good sleep.. since the journey to airport will take about 20-30mins. So here we were. The airport was up with christmas decoration. The airport has become more beautiful since the last time I came. See, it was me posing with my daddy and mummy and also not to forget, posing with ChristmAs tree and a fountAin that I found it interesting. :)

1st pneumococcal vaccine
Just one day after my Birthday, my daddy and mummy brought me for "mosquitoe bite"!!! (injection) It was my 1st pneumo jab. When my PD, Dr Winston Ng, from Kidslink clinic (at CCK) injected the needle into my left thigh, I just let out a short "scream". It was definately a painful experience sia Ouch! I did not cry but was rather agitated as there was an auntie holding onto me, PD, mummy holding me, aiyo so many people.. , luckily the whole process took less than a minute. I hope my daddy and mummy would not bring me for this kind of injections again. Bo2 bi3 bo2 bi3 (in Hokkien)

I am ONE yEaR Old today!!!

I spent the whole day with my daddy and mummy. They brought me for shopping again (haha), because the weather was not so good. I received presents from my yee yees, my grand parents, not to forget from my dearest daddy and mummy too. Thank you all for the presents. :)

cAlcuLator, mOnEy here I COmE!!


As it was my 1st BiRthDaY, my parents decided to let me choose "things" in order to forsee what I will grow up to become. They had picked 5 things for me to choose according to hear say.
I have chosen quite a few, calculator, $$, biscuit and ruler. So what do those represent? Can someone tell me, please? Thank You in advance. :)

cAlcuLator or RuLer?
See, I was happily playing with them. Haha

Today my Daddy bathe me
Hi, I was so happy because today my daddy bathe me instead of my mummy. It was a long wait for daddy to bathe me again ever since I was 2mths+. I still remembered daddy was the one to bathe me when I was just borned. (When mummy was doing her confinement, daddy was the one who bathe me for 1 whole month!) I wondered what was the occassion. :p But anyway, I was happy and hope that daddy can bathe me often. :)

Daddy and mummy did not go to work today, they brought me to vivo city for the second time. It was still as crowded as before.



Can you find me in the tv? Sorry ah, that was the best picture that my daddy had taken since an auntie was also posing at that moment...


After the window-shopping, we went to wai4 gong1 & wai4 po2's house to have dinner.
I met my biao3 jie3 (noelle) who was 9 mths older than me.




I saw my da4 yi2 and da4 yi2 zhang4, jiu4 jiu4 and jiu4 mu3 too. (But no photos, sorry ah.. , as my mummy forgotten to take)

But I still don't really like any one of them to carry me, except my parents.

Shaking my head
Sorry ah, the video was rather blur as my mummy was taking the clip while I was trying to move the pram using my body strength.... (movement involves.. that was why)

BIG CHriStMaS tree at Takashimaya Shopping Center

Daddy and mummy brought me to Orchard for window shopping.

I was very awake and refused to sleep although daddy and mummy tried very hard (pushing me in my pram) to make me sleep. Haha... Daddy and mummy, I do not go to orchard often, especially christmas is just around the corner, so of course I would want to "kpo" mah... heee.. I did not take any nap after my morning nap (merely about 1 hour only).. I "tong" from 12pm to 7pm...

Me with the BIG christmas tree at Taka shopping center. :)

Hi All,

See, I found a new way of playing.... with my number book! :p Jialat jialat, daddy and mummy caught me in action.....

Hi All,
Hmm.. Today, I was practising "walking" again.. I was able to walk more steps! About 5 steps, but daddy and mummy did not video clip for me. Nevermind, maybe wait till I have mastered the skill then I will show you all. Daddy find that I don't have much confidence in myself (in walking), because I "walk" very fast towards mummy.. so that I can fall my whole body on her... hmm.. daddy, please have be patient with me as I wanted to make sure I am very zai3 (steady) in walking before I really officially walk mah. :p

Break Record

I wonder why daddy still needs to go back to work at changi since it was a sunday. Mummy decided to bring me to my wai4 gong1 wai4 po2 house. Daddy sent us there around 1pm. Mummy take my cousin's toys for me to play. haha.. since she was not around. (My grandparents are the caregiver of my cosin, so during weekends, she would not at my grandparent house)

When I was there, the activity I did were to cruise around the sofa, kitchen cabinet.. or anything I can get hold of. I will crawl in and out of the whole house too. haha I had my "tea break" (milk) at 330pm and my dinner at 615pm in my grandparents house too. I did not take my nap, mummy tried to pat me to sleep, but I refused. Maybe because I am not use to taking nap in my grandparents house yet. Daddy came back to fetch us at 7pm+.. what a long wait.

Thereafter, they still went to IMM (again) to had their dinner. But luckily they had their dinner fast enough and went back home straight after that. I almost knocked off, I went to bed at 845pm without even take my last feed of the day. Imagine I was not able to take nap or sleep for almost 8.5hrs..... ZzZzZzZzZzzzzz

Hmm, Sunday again. Daddy and mummy brought me to the market for the 2nd time. We went to market to buy breakfast and newspaper.
The 1st time mummy did not follow my daddy. This time round, mummy came along too, but they are still lazy, because they only pushes me in my stroller. Although they did not really pushed me into the wet market, as it was very crowded. I did enjoyed the short trip. Hopefully there will be more trips to come. heee

Another weekend. Today was saturday. Daddy and mummy brought me to IMM after I had my lunch. They went there just to have their lunch, fastfood long john silver, I think it was rather crowded today as the extension of the IMM building (Next Level) started operation already.

Mummy gotten me a white balloon, see I was admiring the balloon.




We just took a stroll in IMM and went home after that. Thank god we went back early, the moment we stepped into our house, it started raining heavily.

Play until "Per4 Cher4" in mandarin (pek4 chek2 in hokkien)
I was playing with a new playskool toycar that my parents bought for me. I was examing the wheels of the car, because I find it hard to make the car "run smoothly".. wondering why... hiaz

"Roaming" around alone in Vivo City Gymboree

Workout at Vivo City Gymboree with Gezann and Cathleen

New Activity

This sunday afternoon, daddy and mummy brought me to gymboree trial class at vivo city. It was the first time I had attended this kind of playgroup. It was certainly an eye opening to my parents and myself. There were tunnels, slides, see-saws, etc. I didn't like what the teacher was teaching, I thought she was trying to train our body muscles, something like that, and I felt her teaching was boring. So I chosed to crawl away from my mummy's hand to explore around. :p Sorry mummy, i must have tired you out while you chased after me. Daddy didn't bring along his socks, thus he wasn't allowed to enter the playground. He could only see me happily playing through the glass door. It was a rule that they had set, that adults must wear socks for hygiene purpose. But bbs do not need, just that mummy wanted me to wear lor. However, halfway through, my mummy removed my socks, because she sensed that the socks restricted my movement.

Oh yes, I was happy to see familiar faces, Cathleen and Gezann. :)

Giving "Speech"
This was the longest "speech" that I have given so far. This video was about 4mins, but due to the file size constrait, my daddy had cut short my speech so that it can be upload here. Sorry if I were too long winded. :p

Daddy and mummy found me standing un supported on the ground for about 10 seconds. They were so happy. I wonder will they be happy when I really can walk on my own, think by then they sure will get headache.. hahahaha :p

Washing my daddy's hair

Hee, I have mastered "washing" my daddy's hair. But you can see that my attention of "washing" was short, as I was distracted by my favorite tv commercial. :p
Sorry daddy, think your hair scalp must be very painful hor. (the video was blur as it was taken by mobile)

Yipee

Daddy caught me in action, I was was raising one of my hands up happily. I have been doing this quite often, but I think daddy and mummy do not know what I want to say or what it means. Anyway, can see that I was very happy in the video. :)

My cousins (my daddy's sister's kids) came over to my house to play with me. Only now then my mummy posted the photo. Here is me with one of my cousin, ah Ben kor kor. (wearing his pyjamas) :p

New Toy "Form Fitters"

Today i finally get to see my FIRST numbers book!!! The book is so colourful and the pictures at every page is so real that makes me drool with saliva.... I finally use my teeth to bite on the book....hmmm....so yummy desu... But... daddy and mummy keep saying "NO.. dun do that" when i try to put the book into my mouth... dun really understand why they dun allow me to do that...HaHa...

I am 10 months old today. :) Two more months to go and I will be 1 year old already.

Tooths that I have:-
My 2nd upper tooth is cutting too. So now i have two upper tooth cutting. Mummy wonders when my cutting tooths will be fully grown out. She and daddy has been waiting patiently. But the strange thing they found out is that they heard normally baby will grow bottom tooths first, but I am the odd one out. My upper tooths cut first, anyway.. "got gey better than bo gey right"? haha

Trip to Suntec



Daddy and mummy brought me to suntec city again. This time they decided to stay longer so that I was able to catch the suntec fountain show.. see me with my daddy. :)

Oh yes, I was able to catch a glimpse of the fish tanks located at the basement of suntec too. I was so engrossed looking at the fishes.

See, I got a new toy car. Daddy and mummy bought this is to let me learn my ABC, but I seem to be more interested in playing with the wheels then pressing the A, B C, buttons. heee

Playing with camera case

1st Tooth

Finally, my mummy discovered that I had got my 1st tooth cutting. It was my upper right tooth cutting. Made her so happy. I wondered why, maybe she might be thinking after I had got my tooth I can eat more things rather than just eating the same old thing like, porridge, cereal, brown rice.. blar blar blar. heee

Can this be eaten?

Attract Attention

See, this was me with my daddy. He was busy studying his exam for a course that he took. Don't know what course. While, I was secretly playing with a "new toy", that was the tv set remote control. kekeke :p I wonder whether you were able to see the remote control that was holding in my hand.

Climbing the obsticles

Pulled myself up
Eversince I knew how to pull myself up (with the help of the cot rails), I have been "practising" the skills... see this was me standing in my cot happily.. hehe..

New "chair"

Today, daddy let me sit on a new "chair".. hmm.. it was a car seat to be placed in daddy's car mend for me when I take his car.. I felt so happy to sit on it initally, but not for long lor... after a few minutes I wanted to get out liao because I saw mummy walking towards me from her room. :p

Pulling myself up from my cot

Hmm, it was another adventure day for me. Because I have mastered another skill, i.e. to pull myself up from my cot. haha.. Mummy got a fright when she saw me pulling myself up from my cot while I was in lying postion. Daddy wasted no time, but to quickly lower down my cot level, so that I would not fell out from my cot. Aiyo.. so I would not get a chance to climb out from my cot.

Gathering


This afternoon, daddy and mummy brought me for gathering again! :p

This time round, the gathering was hosted by auntie Sin Mei's at Chua Chu Kang condo, the gathering took part in the condo lounge. It was a cosy place with air conditioner, big tv set, sofa, washing basin, lots of food... etc etc.. I enjoyed the gathering soo much.... I was so happily crawling on the bb matt provided by auntie Sin Mei and Siao Wei (I think, because I was not the 1st one to arrive.. :p)

As my daddy needs to work, so he dropped us there and went back to work. Mummy was the only one who handled me there, thanks to auntie Sandy for helping out.. (to play with me when mummy washed my milk bottle) :) Nevertheless, we had a good time there.

Must thanks to auntie Sin Mei for hosting too. :)

Taking semi solid food

I had my first taste of semi solid food when I was about 6mth+, because mummy partially breastfeed me since birth till now. Then also partly because I developed mild ecezma. Mummy had tried feeding me Heinz plain cereal, the first few scoops I did not really take it well. So my parents gave up, they waited for a few days later then they let me try again it again. Then think another 2 days later, my nai3 nai3 (ah ma) also tried giving me the same thing again and she was happy that I finished up the cereal and pumkin puree that she made for me. (She told my daddy about it). So this time round, mummy tried again by giving me porridge too. Here was I, sitting in a bamboo chair while she was feeding me with porridge for my dinner.

Weaning Day
Today my mummy went for her wisdom tooth extraction. When she came back from the hospital, during night time when I wanted to drink milk (latch on), she kept refusing to latch me... then I heard her explaining to me that she cannot breastfeed me because she was on medication. (The dentist presribed her some pain killer after her tooth extraction) Of course I protested by crying.... but she kept "explaining" and refused to latch me because she do not want to take the risk. From the 2nd night onwards, I grew to accept the fact that my mummy can no longer breastfeed me. Hiaz, no choice, I got to drink milk from milk bottle. Luckily, I was already partial drinking milk from milk bottle, if not I think it would really be a big big blow to me.

Merry-Go-Round

Eating Chocolate

This was me, trying to lick the snickers bar chocolate while seeing my daddy eating, can see from the video that I was very fierce when I "requested" my daddy to let me taste the chocolate. :p

Sitting independently
Hi all, I have been trying to sit on my own, see.. my parents put me in sitting postion on there bed. Although I still not very "zai3" in sitting, but I was trying my best already, hope in few wks time I am able to sit on my own on the floor. :)

2nd gathering

Today, mummy brought me to auntie Sandy's house (en en's mummy) at Little india for gathering. This time round, it was consider a big gathering, because I saw a lot of babies, daddies and mummies. There were about 15 bbs, so you can imagine including the bb's parents.. auntie Sandy's house was super crowded.

I also see some familiar faces.. that I have met during the 1st gathering, but because I became cranky after an hour or so, mummy and daddy left auntie Sandy's house so that I won't not make a big fuss.

Thank you auntie Sandy for hosting the gathering.



That was the reason why mummy and me was not in the picture. :p
