Cheers Guys

You learnt 2 new things....

CHEERS - hold glass up and knock on our glasses, then drink. (just in time for a.is's wedding. hahaha)
SHAKE HAND - hold hands out, and start shaking everyone's hand....

Well, I am really happy that you learnt these 2 things at this time. As I have always wished you can walk on a.is's wedding. I'm proud that you are already walking now. Also, you can drink with us, by knocking on everyone's glass, hahaha.

Yesterday mummy skipped work again (kk is gonna kill me soon). So at home I stayed to jaga you. Then I changed you into the tuxedo. You started pulling the collar and making irritating sounds. Oh god, I'm afraid you might not wear it on the big day. Well, I pressume you will not, so I will be bringing an extra shirt, just in case.

The other day I was talking to daddy...

M : I'm bringing baby with me to Christine's house
D : Why? No, he is following me
M : No, he wont follow you
D : He become heng tai la, follow you be chi mui ahh?? Like sissy.
M : Hehehe, oh ya.

I've just checked with the bride-to-be, she said she wants to play with you and be in the room with her and all the chi muis...

jj said he wants you to follow him. He agreed to what daddy said...

*sigh* how now? We'll just see how it goes on that day

Scary Post Xmas Dinner

Yesterday after Secret Recipe's lunch with a.janie & u.kwailo, daddy & I brought you to TTDI park. A park recommended by a.ailyn. It was really a nice place. She had asked me to buy a loaf of bread. You were so happy to feed the tortoise, koi's, catfish. Too bad, lazy daddy didnt wanna walk anymore, we didnt get to see monkey. You made a friend there. He was so friendly, laughing always, and asking me for bread. His mother "mm hou yi si". Hehe, it's okay.

We left for home and waited for a.vp & family to come. We were bathing when they came. When I went down, I saw the big Renee wearing sailo's t-shirt and saw the lil' Reeve grew bigger. First time, a.vp & I saw you playing with Reeve. He threw you the ball and you threw back. Soon we left for dinner in Sakae Sushi.

We took our seat. If you have been there, you should know how their tables are. One family on each side. And at that moment, a.vp said she was afraid to have the 3rd, well, I was scared to have my 2nd. Anyway when we left, the table and floor were full of food. Thanks to you 3 kiddos.

While I was paying, I was surprised to see u.kwailo walking alone (he was supposed to be carrying Reeve). Then hehehe, a small fella was following him from behind. So cute. Walking so steady already, whereas you walk like a zombie... hehehe, mummy so bad.

Well, 3 of you met a new friend.....

Did you miss anything?

Added To Toy List

I almost forgot I got a x'mas present for my dearest you. Well, we dont celebrate xmas though, but I mummy has always wanted to buy you this, since you were 6 months old. But then, daddy said you were too young to play with that, so now that you are 14 months, I made the decision to add this to your toy list.



I'm going to invite all your lil' friend over to pp's house next Monday to share your toy... Hehe, the sort-of-monthly get together.

Boy Boy

Well, last Monday, I went to 1U to see your tuxedo. I have waited for so long and finally got it. I prefer the other one actually but that was RM199.00. Knowing you can only wear once, I thought I might as well go for the cheaper one RM85.00. A lot of difference though.

You looked funny in this. Cute. I'm glad that you are walking now. Must be funny. Hmm, still your shoes to buy. Getting him a black one, still considering from where. No more adidas as I find it not comfortable at all. Osh Kosh, maybe cause his favorite pair is from there. Combi, another choice. Anywhere else???

These days, you have been so cheeky and mischievous. I dont know where you learn them from but it sure put a smile on everyone's face....

• you tapped on us (calling us) and point to whatever you want us to see
• how you kissed us unexpectedly
• the cheeky laugh, and same time nod your head
• dance - slow - sway from left to right
• dance - fast - jump up and down, hands left to right
• golf - swing your hands
• wave bye bye, smiled cheeky & laugh & "aaaa"
• after drinking, you will finish with an "ahhh" with your mouth open wide
• when it rains, u in the car will look out the window and keep quiet (as if millions of things in mind)
• when you know we look at you, you will look back and smile you big smile
• when drinking 100+ or equivalent, you hold the can, I cannot even remove from your hands
• when drinking milk, you will take pp's hand, put them on your bottle to hold for you
• if you dont dare to touch something, you will take my hands and put it there first
• etc etc

The list will go on and on and on....
Cheeky my boy

25 Cars On 25th

I got the title from a.vp. And how she got it, let's read on.

On x'mas eve, we got all dressed up to a.yee's house. It was raining a lot. Guessed it was quite a sad x'mas. I dont remember any rainy xmas though. Anyway, I got her a nice microwave and a cute t-shirt for Jonathan. Before we left, daddy said we should join a.aud. So I tied ribbons on to 2 bottles of wine and carried along with me.

When we reached a.yee's place, she greeted us, asking why I bought her a big present. I told her that I would be eating half her lamb, so in order to feel less guilty, I brought her something big. Anyway, you spent most of your time under the xmas tree with sasha. Then a.yee came over to give you kids your presents. Hehe, sasha got a barbie doll, and you got 25 cars.

Merry Xmas

You enjoyed so much inside. Daddy and I were having our Indian cum lamb feast. I met a lot of old colleagues. They said you were cute and didnt believed you were 14 months. Hmm, you ate a lot. At around 10pm, you started rubbing your eyes. Poor child, we have another session. So we thank a.yee for the dinner and present and left.

In the car, we drove towards a.aud's house. Daddy was so excited, as he was more comfortable with the bunch. Within 10 minutes, you shut your eyes so tight, we thought we might as well go home. Daddy reluctantly changed the direction and headed home...

My Inner Child

I found this "Inner Thingy" on Sue & Egghead's blog. Thought wanna give it a try. And true enough, I do cherish every detail of my life. In fact, I'm treasuring every step of my life with you around. I love you dear.

Your Inner Child Is Surprised

You see many things through the eyes of a child. Meaning, you're rarely cynical or jaded. You cherish all of the details in life. Easily fascinated, you enjoy experiencing new things.

How Is Your Inner Child?

Overall

This trip was really a hectic & tiring one. We mothers thought this wasnt really a holiday, a.vp & I thought it was more relaxed at work than to bring you 2 kids to Bangkok.

Anyway, I think somehow you know you were out of Malaysia. You were so happy all the time. Once in a while, you would smile to yourself. Sometimes, you would hold my face with you 2 hands and laugh so loud. Daddy was so happy that you slept in his arms so long.

You didnt wanna sleep. You stayed up so late. I think most probably you didnt wanna waste time. You didnt wanna drink your milk.

The people there are so polite and nice. The weather is great. I quite like the country, no wonder it's called the Land of Smile....We will go there again, dear.

The Finale

I woke you from sleep again. We dont have much time. We went down for breakfast. After that, we walked to Zen Central. There was a small market there. The walk was great. The weather was cooling. It was like Genting Highlands.

Nothing much, we walked around, waste some time. We went back, packed everything and off we went to the airport.

We checked in, went for lunch in a japanese stall. I ordered eel rice for you, which you dont quite like. You were pushing the pram the whole time. When we went into the plane, you played around for a while before dozing off.... Hehehe...

Glimpse of Bangkok

The 3rd Day

I had to wake you up cause we were all going to Jahtujat (if I spell it right). We went down to the 7th floor. When you saw Renee, you called for her and laughed so much, same goes to Renee. when she saw you "Rayern Rayern..." Hehehe.

We walked to the train station. There we took some pictures. In the train, you paid more attention to the passenger than what's outside. When we reached, daddy carried you using the sarong-thingy. First all the guys said it was ugly for men to wear that, but later, u.billy wore first to carry Lauren then Renee, then daddy used it to carry you to sleep, and lastly, u.kwailo took mine to carry Renee. Hahaha...

It was an eye-opener...The market was so big, after 3 hours of walking there, I didnt see the same shop. The things were so cheap, but I didnt buy much, I dont know why. I missed so many things. Served me right, cause a.vp & a.aud told me earlier, if I see something, I must buy, cause it's difficult to find the same shop again.

I bought a lot of things for you. Almost everything was yours. Then we went for lunch in one of the restaurant. Hmm.. okay la. We left after lunch. Thanks to daddy, u.kwailo, a.vp, Renee, Lauren & we were caught in a 1-hour jam.

I put you to sleep. While daddy & you took your nap, I went out to the living room to unpack my buyings.... After that I made a hot bath. I relaxed and enjoyed the bath for a good 30-minutes. After that I went for my 30-minute nap...

We woke up, got dressed and went down again. u.suthi brought his beautiful girlfriend to have dinner with us. We went to the Beer Garden in Suan Lum. We shopped a while, then to coffee somewhere near.

We went back tot he hotel. You were playing so much you didnt wanna go up. It was so late (1am). We went up and packed our bags. You were busy playing with everything you could find. Soon you were tired, I off the lights and made you your milk. You slept so soundly in my arms... Sweet little boy.

The 2nd Day

I woke up but didnt wanna get out of bed. Still recuperating from previous day. Soon you woke up. Smile smile smile... Hmm... I brought you in to bathe. Then headed for breakfast. a.aud & a.rena was still in their rooms. After that we went up to the rooms. I hadnt see daddy since we got outta plane. He went golf with the uncles.

At noon, we took a cab to MBK (Sg Wang-like SC). You still didnt want your milk. From MBK we went to Discovery. At about 2pm, the guys called us saying that they were on the way back. So we headed back also. Daddy was so happy to see you, well, I was so happy to see daddy... I thought I could pass you back to him while I rest a while, but you were so clingy. In the cab, I told a.vp & a.aud that this would be the last time I be in Bangkok as daddy didnt like it here.

Daddy told me he won 2 days golf. I thought we had free hotel stay, but u.kwailo back out last minute. Sigh. Anyway, he won 2 round of green fees, 1 spa, 1 dinner. But didnt claimed his spa, so got rm300 hehehe... Hmm, after this 2 rounds of game, I think I can make plans to come again next year. Cause daddy loved Bangkok heheh...

Anyway, we went over to Central again. Daddy was with you all the time. You slept in the pram. a.janie & I were digging into the bundle of BBBush clothes. I managed to get you 3 pants and 2 tshirt for Jada & Hyun. Then we left for hotel and waited for dinner.

u.phol brought us to a fairly nice restaurant near Suan Lum Night Market. The food was ok. A friendly waitress came over to play with you. I think she wanted me to have a peaceful dinner. You did play with her, after you saw her playing with Renee...

You cannot sit quietly, so I pushed you out for a walk first. You slept after 10 minutes.

We didnt spend much time in SL cause you were tired. We left a while. Daddy suggested we take the toot-toot, cause he wanted you to experience it. But you were scared. Actually I shouldnt have let him take it, cause it was so dangerous. I hold you so close to me.

We went back and you slept at 1am.

The Very First Day

We woke up at 615am. You were still sleeping, so dad said we will just carry you into the cab. After I packed everything, we were on our way to the airport. You were still sleeping soundly. Poor thing, I didnt even changed you, I didnt wanna wake you up.

When I got down from the cab, you woke up. You were so blur. We looked for a.janie, u.kwailo & renee. Renee was so fresh and excited. You played with her a little before we went to check in. u.billy, a.audrey were as usual late. After that we went down for nasi lemak breakfast. Not so nice.

As the flight was delayed for 2 long hours, we sat in McD and chat, while you and Renee played with Ronald McDonald. We had special privilege for bringing you kids, at least no queues. Before we board you slept in Renee's Mclaren. Hmm... we had Burger King.

When on board, you were so excited. You wanted a seat of your own. Baby, you are still too small. So I carried you and gave you your pacifier. According to a.aud & a.vp (janie), it reduces the ear pressure. You were okay until the end of the flight... I think must be the pressure, you were making lots of noises.

When we got down, daddy & the uncles went to play golf, while all the girls & babies went back to the hotel. While waiting for a.vp to check in, u & Renee played at the xmas tree... I was afraid you might pull down the tree, but lucky my dearest listen to me. You just touched.

We went up to the room. It was magnificent. 2300 sq feet. I was so so happy to see the apartment, until I found the 3rd room. It was so small with only a sofa bed. Well, sorry guys, I did make a fuss. We paid 7,500 baht a night. I dont think anyone would wanna sleep on the floor.... I dont know bout them, but I wont. Anyway, it was actually a good thing that I made a fuss, though. If not we wouldnt have gotten a free room....

We then went over to Central Shopping Center. We walked. It was nice, cause the weather is cooling. Renee & you were in your prams. Everything was ok, until we reached a overhead bridge, we had to use to cross over. So I had to carry you, while Renee walked with a.vp. a.reena carried Lauren. And poor a.aud carried her big big backpack and our 2 prams. Havoc.

After that we put you kids in the pram again. You slept. I was glad cause I can shop a little. I brought you into the changing rooms. Hmm, and I got a 50% discount voucher, which we used it on something not worth it. Anyway, we then headed to a nice restaurant for dinner. You had most of a.aud's chicken rice & some fried rice.

After that we went to the supermart for water and some snacks. Thank god, Central offers home delivery. He sent our stuffs back for us. We were so so tired. After our shower, we stayed there to chat a little. By then, Renee & Lauren were fast asleep. So I tried to put you to bed as I was really tired.

You refused to sleep. You refused to drink the whole day. I brought you into a.reena's room. You cried so much. You sat in front of the door wanting to go out. I was so tired to bring you around, so we just stayed in the room. You cried and cried, and somehow you knew I was angry. You came over laid you head on my lap and smile to me. Then hugged me from behind. So sweet. You are so stubborn, baby. I'm so sorry to make you cry so much, but I was really tired. Thank god, I still can control and not hit you.

After about 10 minutes, I brought you out to the living room, dimmed the lights, made you milk. You finished half the bottle and slept on my chest. So sweet, I packed everything and a.vp & a.aud helped me up to the room. I was so tired that I fell asleep the moment I got up the bed...

I think I almost fell in love with Bangkok, due to the hospitality. Everyone's so friendly and polite.

"I Tawt I Taw A Puddy Cat"

A brief intro before I start the blog....

Sunday morning we went to have breakfast with kk. You were still sleeping but I thought we seldom have chance to have breakfast with kk on Sundays so I woke u up. Sorry...And that is the main reason I ffk a.janie & u.kwailo again. We went to Ikano's Uncle Lim. After that we went up to walk a bit. I bought you a new bedsheet. It's filled with Tweety's picture...

Yesterday I went to pp's room to find the bedsheet was nicely tugged in. And somehow you were wearing 'tweety & bugs bunny' t-shirt. I pointed at tweety on the bedsheet and said 'tweety'. Then when I asked you where's tweety, you pointed at it. And rested your head on the sheet. (you always do that to cartoon characters, like u always oi oi on the mickey mouse carpet..)

Then suddenly, you pointed at you shirt's tweety.... ha ha, you know tweety...

Another Get-Together

Well, baby, I loved seeing you around with little kids. That is why I have been organising so many get together with friends and relatives. It's always nice to see you playing, laughing, crying with them. You seemed to enjoy so much. Every once in a while, I would call up all the aunties to bring their kiddos over to our house to swim, eat or do whatever.

Yesterday, after a.janie said she cant join us for dinner, I made another arrangement to go dinner with a baby - baby yew yew. We met up with them in Dsara Palace (again??) at around 7pm. You sat there so quietly playing with the peanuts. a.sun & a.see said you are so handsome (hehe, damn perasan). Before the food came, you pointed towards the aquarium. Then kk brought you there to see the lobsters & fish. I put you up the stage again. Everytime I put you up there, you will definitely look at our table. To get the attention, you clapped your hands, and smiled so cunningly.

When food came, I gave you half of my rice. I put the tofu into your bowl. Then you sort of fed yourself, just a little. Then I fed you the remaining. You finished the whole bowl of rice. Not surprising though.

Then we left to their house. It was cozy. There was a nice xmas tree. I asked you where's the xmas tree. You crawled towards it and stood up. Wanted to touch the ornaments, but mummy said no. So you just stood their admiring the nice blue & silver xmas tree...

Sparkling X'mas Tree

Things That Came Back to my Mind

This is actually a review of some of the things that had happened last weekend. Knowing that I always forget, I have missed a lot of stuffs.

That day we went to Ikano. On the way back, you laughed when we went through a hump. Hehe, so everytime we see one ahead, I said "baby, wait ahh, wait ahh" (with my hand showing the stop gesture). Soon we went through the humo, you laughed again. Later, when I said "wait ahh..." you did the stop gesture yourself. Hahaha, fast learner...

Hmm... that day before going to JayDen's party, we were home waiting for daddy & u.kl to bathe. Before that, u.kl carried you and played superman with you. He threw you up and ran round our house. You loved it so much. Everytime he puts you down, you will look at him and nod your head again. But baby, u.kl is tired.

I think it must be the click between daddy & u.kl that made you like him also. At JayDen's party, you were clapping and playing with a.is & I at another table. Then you looked over to u.kl, pointing at him and ee-aa. So a.is held your hand and brought you nearer to him. When you saw him looking at you, you stood there and started to clap your hands.... hehehe, you wanna show him you clever boy is it?

Whenever you see a.is, you will give her the biggest smile, and laugh non stop. That day in a.sandy's house, you looked at her as if you didnt know who she was. I dont know whether it's because you just woke up or it's her permed hair. Hahaha, maybe you think she was someone else. But after she played with you, you know it's her....

While you little fellas were clapping and singing, suddenly out of balance you fell to the ground. Thank god, you didnt land on your head. It's nothing serious, but you cried so loud cause a.is, a.janie, a.siewwai & mummy shouted so loud. Haha, sorry, mummy's always so kua cheong.

Well, that's all mummy can recall. If there are more, I will put them in here again.

My Big Boy

I honked at the gate of pp's house. k.yati brought you out. So I asked k.yati & k.romi to go pack your stuffs. While they were inside, you sat on my lap in the car. Then you took my hand and put it on the gear. I pushed to "R". Then you took my hand and put it on the steering wheels. I laughed. I know you wanted to go out, as you have been in the house the whole of yeaterday.

I brought you all to A&W. You enjoyed your fries. I gave you a bite of my burger. You quickly nodded your head and pointed to my burger. Hehehe. Then we had a little conversation that goes something like this....

me : baby, you like eating fries?
u : aaa eee aaa
me : you ate a lot already hoh?
u : eee ooo aaa
me : you cannot eat too much, afterwards you get tummy ache wo.
u : arhh uuhh argg

Hehehe, so funny, it was as if we were really ahving a conversation. You replied to every word I said. So funny, k.yati was laughing to herself.

We reached home and while k.yati cleaned the house, I brought you up to bathe. I dunno why, everytime when k.yati or I bathe you, you will take advantage. When pp bathe you, you'll quietly come out of the water once called. But yesterday when I took the towel and wanted to carry you up, you scolded...

Anyway we changed and after daddy came home we left for 1U. You went to take your shoes. The red osh kosh. You always liked that maybe because it feels comfortable. Other Adidas cannot fit your spongy leh. Then I said the red one doesnt match your baju. So u took the silver & red one (a.janie bought). Baby, it's too small for you, but you insisted. Alright, I put it on for you. Once in the car, you complained and I have to take them off. So no shoes again.

Daddy said u.kl will be there. I assured him that I just got an sms from a.janie saying she didnt want renee to be caught in the rain. I think about 3 minutes in the car you fell asleep. I put you into the stroller and went shopping a while. We went to Jack's Place. We ordered fish & chips, lamb chop, mango shrimp cocktail, escargot & lobster bisque. While eating, daddy wanted so much for you to wake up. He wanted you to share the BIG meal with us. But you only woke up after we asked for the bill.

Then daddy said to order a kid's fish & chip for you. Cause you looked stoned & hungry. But I told him, you wont eat then, cause you just woke up.

We went to buy you a Roti Boy bun. You dun quite like it. So I told daddy I will cook you pasta when we go home later. We then headed to Giant, to get the "BKK" stuffs. At the toy section, you pointed and nodded. Daddy brought you down to play. You loved the playground which I wanted so much to buy for you, but daddy stopped me last 5 months. He wanted to buy yesterday but it was rm70 more expensive. I said, not worth it.

In the carpark, you wanted milk, so you search in my bag for the bottle. Then you took out the flask, then opened the milk container. You wanted to pour the water in, but it was too hot. Then you pour in the milk powder with daddy's help.Then closed the bottle... Hahaha, daddy said you "wise guy" dont even wanna hold your own bottle when drinking but wanna try to make milk yourself????

When we reached home, I cooked you egg, cheese & beans. Then pp called, asked me to send you back, but I said no, cause I was too lazy. I switched on the xmas songs - Santa Claus is coming to town & Jingle Bells. You swayed from left to right, so funny. Daddy & k.yati cannot stop laughing. Mummy taught you a new way to dance.

We went upstairs, getting ready to sleep.

The Lil' Boy

We went to pick jj then left for JayDen's party. You slept on the way, not surprising. When we reached, I asked k.yati to bring you up to JayDen's room. While you sleep, I went down. We were almost the first to reach, as I dont see any familiar faces around. Talked to a.sandy while she fed lil JayDen.

After a while, a.janie, renee, a.audrey, lauren, a.julie & u.simon came. I passed them their tickets and the mummy-popular-for postcard to them. I thought Lauren & Reeve deserved one too. Anyway, we went out to get our food.

It was a nice dinner, where everyone get to sit and chat. I went up to check you out. Before I reached the room, I could hear you cry. I carried you down. Everyone wanted to play with you but you were so moody. I cant blame you, cause you slept for 1 hour only for the whole day.

Still, I put you on the floor standing. a.is & Renee came over to entertain you. She sang "If you're happy". You began to clap your hands and of course Renee too. Then she hugged you and I quickly snapped a picture. You played a while and then I fed you rice.

Later k.yati brought you in to play. While walking I heard you shouting for Renee. And same goes for Renee, shouting your name walking to you. Hehehe. I think there really is a click between you & renee.

Anyway, at about 10pm, I told daddy we had to leave, cause I know you were really tired.

Share the Joy

The 3 Monkeys

Ederlyn sent me the BKK tickets early morning. I felt a little funny to see your air ticket. Having you name on it. Well, sorry to say, but this is your first air ticket, I have to put it up here. hahaha!!!

I left office at 11am. Hmm, kk is going get mad one day. But I had to leave for lunch with you & mahmah. After lunch, we went home for a while before I sent them all back to moi.yp's house. Then it rained so heavily. I waited for a.ailyn to come.

She picked us up and we left for a.penny's house. You were sleeping, when we got down, you woke up. You were so quiet there. It seemed like the girls were more **** (cant think of that word) than you. Anyway, you played with the two of them.

It was a great get together. The mothers and the kids. We talked a lot, but mostly on you guys. You liked cookie (puppy). You went so close to her, but when she came closer, you retreated. Hmm, scaredy cat. You all went into the inflated car and played while we mummies talked.

Then I asked for the cake. She brought it out and you were right in front of it the very minute. You wanted to touch it, but mummy said nono.... You put your hand so close to it, but didnt touch. My dear child so good boy. Zo-E & Jada wanted so much to touch it.

Blow The Cake

Thank god, I managed to snap some pictures of the 3 monkeys. We all had our share. You liked the cake. After looking through Zo-E's album, we left for Curve. It was raining, we had to leave.


We waited for daddy & u.kwailo to come home to go to JayDen's full moon....

KK's Big Day

kk's birthday is today, but tonight is jay den's full moon, we had to have kk's dinner yesterday.

After you woke up from your nap, we headed to the restaurant. chia.pp, mny.pp, a.see, yewyew, u.yong, a.sun all came to celebrate with kk. We bought him a cake and wrote "Happy Birthday kung kung"

He was so happy to see you. I think being a grand-pa & a father, what he wished is to have the whole family seated for dinner. For the whole time, he was carrying you. When yewyew came, you played with her. She's so small at 10months. Or are you big? Anyway, you sayang her like you always did, so gentle. And you shared all your food & snacks with her, hmm in fact eevryone. chia.pp & mny.pp said you are so kuai.

Woo-ing Yew Yew

U ate almost quarter of the fish. After that you were on the ground walking everywhere. During the cake cutting, you looked at everyone when they sang. No clapping. Until everyone stopped singing only you clapped. Hmm, sometimes I also dunno what to say bout you.

Happy Birthday KK

kk, jj & pp each drove a car. So I have to carry you while daddy drove. And daddy thought tonight you might as well sleep with us. When we reached home, you played so much "mummy coming" with me, you laughed so loud I think the whole row of houses could hear you.

We went up to bed. I gave you your last feed and you laid on the bed, eyes wide opened looking at the ceiling. Then you cried again.... After 5 minutes, I made you another bottle of milk. You finished 2 whole bottles of milk??? Wow, scary.

Legal Pass Out

I was quite inpressed with the way our Malaysian Immigration works now. They are so efficient. We reached there at about 11:30am. There were so many people there waiting to help us - at a price, of course. We followed on of them. Took your passport photo (you looked so blur - you were sleepy). Then we went up straight to get your number. It was 3045 - four more to go.

There you were walking everywhere. We passed them everything and waited for another 20 minutes to pay. And at 12:00pm we were on our way to The Curve for lunch. We went to Sakae Sushi, as you liked the place the last time we went. You looked at the sushi on the belt. Wanting to take everyone of them. But mummy said no, you will have your chawanmushi and teriyaki rice.

After that we walked for a while. You were enjoying yourself at the Anakku playground while daddy looked after you and I shopped a little. Soon, daddy was more tired than you, we left for home.

On the way you slept.....

Finkle Minded Parents

Yeah yeah my dear RayErn, we are bringing you to Bangkok with us. After much consideration, we decided to bring you. With u.billy's assurance of safety, I guessed why not.

Well, but still we have to wait for your passport. I'm taking half day off to go make it now.

Hyun - The Korean Malaysian Baby

Yesterday you were in the office the whole day. You always loved the office, as there are so many new things for you to play. After you woke up from your 2-hour nap, we went to sook.piuyi's house. When I first saw hyun, I exclaimed "Oh My God..." And sook.py thought what happened. She looked exactly like her, only the eyes - the 100% korean eyes.

Hyun's Picture
She is so so cute. Then you came into the room. I asked you to come over to sayang her, you did. Clever boy. After dressing her up in her tiny sleeveless & her mini hot pink skirt, we were on our way out.When we were about to get into the car, sook.py asked where is your car seat. Oppss, I said it's at home. And understanding she is from Australia, she said "no no" to going out without the car seat. I told her that I will drive extra careful & slow, still she insisted on not going.

Well, we then sat home and chit chatted while you played with shi ren & hyun. sook.py said you are big - big hands, big feet, big head, big body. She said she can see your muscles, but I dont. Well, you have lost so much weight. poor thing.

Soon both yi poh came home, sam.yp said you have grown so much. The last time she saw you was about a month ago, what's she saying. She said you really grew bigger. Hmmm... Then you pointed at the dining table. I asked k.yati to bring out some rice. You finished the whole bowl & hung.yp said you are so clever at chewing. She said shi ren never chew like you before. When I asked if you wanted somemore you nodded your head - another praise... hehehe.

After that you pointed at the swimming pool. sook.py asked whether you wanna swim, you nodded. But baby, it was raining. So I asked sook.py to call me when hyun wants to swim, cause you always loved the pool. After playing with them for a while more, we left for home. Waited for daddy to come home to pick us up to 1U for dinner.

We had dinner with u.billy in Dragon-i. You loved the "siu lung pau" like daddy. Then you played with u.billy, laughed. Hehehe, you should, after meeting him for so many times. After dinner, I brought you out while daddy & u.billy talked. You sat on the Snoopy Machine and laughed so much...

When we reached the golf shop, you swing your hands again. I know you loved golf like daddy. So, I gave you a kid's putter and you stood there putting. Hahaha...

Baby's Night Out

Mummy and daddy had a wedding dinner to attend day before yesterday, but still I wasted no time. I went home straight to see you. As I thought it was still early. I played with you a little. I brought you out to the garden. You pointed at the water hose. So I gave it to you. You started to water the plants. So funny. I remembered the last time you played with the hose and got yourself all wet, pp scolded me for making you catch the cold. When I got into the car, you started crying. Poor thing.

It was raining so heavily yesterday. I was so lazy to drive home so I followed jj's car. When we reached home we rushed in to carry you. You laughed when you saw us. You are always happy to see us back, cause that means you have a higher chance of going out.

But dear son, it was raining outside. We brought you to the porch. jj put your hand our to let you feel the rain. After a while, jj was too tired to carry you. So I did and starting singing "raindrops keep falling on my head & rain rain go away". You laughed....

Then we went in to have dinner. Daddy asked you whether you wanna go Tesco and you nodded your head so hard it nearly feel.. hehehe. So after dinner we went up to bathe you. And off we went. On the way, you started rubbing your eyes and scratching your ears. But still daddy wanted to go ahead. Before we turned into Tesco, daddy remembered that u.kl asked us to go yum cha.

We called him to reconfirm and as it was only 815pm, we thought of going to Babyland. But the jam restricted us. We changed plans to go Hartamas Kowloon again...... You entertained yourself with the sugar pack & toothpicks. When u.kl's french toast came, I asked for a piece for you. Then u.kl played with you.

You thought he was playing "uncle coming..." so you quickly hugged me. heheheh. Then you laughed so much. After that we went over to the dvd store. I gave you a Mickey Mouse dvd. You held it while we choose ours. Then I heard you laughed, when I looked at you, you were laughing and playing with the shop owner. You kacau him by giving him the dvd, but when he wanted to take it, you pulled back. Naughty boy.

Then in the car, you drank your milk and your eyes were half closed. I patted you to sleep. I sang you x'mas songs "jingle bells & santa claus is coming to town", you stood up and started to clap your hands. Hmmm... then I thought I had better sing a slower, your usual sleeping song - red river valley & hush lil baby.

Still you didnt wanna sleep...

Little Peguin

After dinner we went to 1Utama with pp, kk, jj & k.yati. I wanted to to see more of the x'mas environment. We used the park way up. There were so many koi's (japanese carp). You were so happy, you laughed and wanted to put your foot in the water.

We walked around, you were looking everywhere. You wanted so much to touch everything. Too bad you dont know how to walk.

I suddenly remembered that I need to get your tuxedo for a.is's wedding. We all went. On the way there, pp said I was wasting money cause you still didnt know how to walk well. The moment the man brought out the suits, she was the first one who exclaimed it was so nice and took one for you to try.

It was really nice and cute. He gave me the size for age 2. I thought it was okay to have a bigger size. So I put it on for you. I put on the white shirt, then the tiny vest and finally the tuxedo. You were so so cute. We were all laughing. But the tux was a little tight. So I asked for a bigger size. He said he ran out of sizes and asked me to go back next week. *Sigh* Okay we shall wait another week....

After that we continued walking around, when we stopped at a golf shop. When you saw the clubs, you starting swinging your hands from left to right (imitating daddy & kk's golf swing). So funny.

Full Day Out

We woke up at 9am today. We were supposed to meet a.janie & u.kwailo in Curve for gym but I changed my mind. We went to Mutiara Damansara's McD instead. After breakfast we brought you into the playroom. You were so happy as you were the only person there - the slide was YOURS. You climbed up the stairs and slide down. Again & again & again... Daddy was so proud of you and asked me to see how happy you were. Well, I told him I see you like that everyday when I bring you to the playground.

Anyway, after that we went to Petronas. I brought you to Burger King. You were so happy pushing the chair around. Daddy went into the mart and happiy came out with a box in his hand. He passed it to me - it was a Chicken Little endorsed plaster. It was RM5.50 for 10 pieces. Waste of money, but he said you will like it. I do hope so. He put one on your arm. After 10 minutes you peeled it off.

We went to meet yehyeh, mahmah & everyone else for lunch. You slept on the way home. At 340pm, a.janie, u.kwailo & renee were in our house. We went to The Curve to meet a.desi & belen.

The Curve-d X'mas

It was so beautiful. You were so happy to see all the x'mas trees around you. I asked you "baby, where x'mas tree ah?" You pointed at one then another then swung your hand around showing me that x'mas tree is every where. So clever boy.

We met them in Secret Recipe. Belen came with eyeshadow. a.desi said she had the Cinderella photo shot. The 2 big sisters entertained you. So funny when belen & renee started to feed you fries. We ate & drank when jj, a.is & u.gary came. After they had their share, we went back to the concourse.

There were carolling. You paid attention on them and in fact hummed along with them. Hahaha, you even clapped your hands. Then belen went to get you a balloon cap. We took lots of picture and soon we left.

We rested and waited for kk & pp for dinner. During dinner, k.yati carried you to play "ray ern coming" with renee. The 2 of you enjoyed so much, laughed so so much. u.kwailo spent us dinner, you went home with pp while I'm stuck here with daddy in the internet cafe...if you are wondering how can I have internet access at this hour.

Zo-E's First

Yesterday after you woke up from your nap, we went to zo-e's first party. When we reached the corner of her house, I could see lots & lots of balloons. As I stepped into the garden, I was fascinated by the decor. I thought what I have done for your first was good enough, but it was nothing much compared to hers.

We went to wish the birthday girl and gave her the pressie. We saw a lot of familiar faces. When u.kai saw you, he asked if you were 2+ years old. I told him you were exactly 14 months yesterday. He said you are so much bigger and taller than his 2-year-old daughter. The whole time he was looking at you in surprise. Other uncles & aunties asked what we fed you.

I gave you a sneak peek into a.penny's house. You wanted so much to go in, but mummy had to eat first. I quickly grabbed a bite and gave you your share too. Then we all went into her house. There were a lot of kids, all their attention was on the inflated car. It was big enough to fit 10 kid (hmm although a little exeggerated). I put you in. You enjoyed so much. You played with some kids, you even shared the balls with them, good boy.

The cake cutting session was the kids' favourite. All you kiddos were surrounding the table. There were 3 cakes - 1. Secret Recipe's Choc Banana
- 2. Lovely homemade agar-agar cake
- 3. Beautiful Teletubbies Cake

Your eyes were on the cake. Then when everyone began to sing, you started to clap your hands. Then after having the cake we left for home as a.janie, u.kwailo & renee were waiting for us.

Duracell vs Energiser

Yesterday, I made daddy pick me up from work with you. We went straight for Chuai Heng's dim sum. In the middle of the meal, k.yati carried you away to play with Renee. I really think there is some kind of connection between you and Renee. You both were enjoying yourselves. You would look for her if she was out of sight. Anyway, k.romi brought renee to the stage in front. When k.yati is holding you half way to the stage, you were already screaming for renee. So funny, you wanted so much to go play with her. As usual, mummy couldnt stand anymore but to take out my camera and went to the 2 of you.

Renee & RayErn

Renee always has her way of catching people's heart. Even first time seeing k.romi, she hugged her and talked to her so much, unlike you after being with her for one whole week, still kept your distance. Anyway, you both played "renee coming" on stage. After a while we all left for home.

After sending k.yati home, we left for 1u. We met up with a.janie & renee while daddy went to the driving range with u.kwailo. During the whole shopping spree you didnt allow k.romi to carry you much. You were so tired and yet stil didnt want to sleep. We came out of Parkson to find there was a mini playground - RM3 per entry. You loved it so much. You crawled high and low.

After a while we left. I asked a.janie to drive as I know you will definately doze off, and I guessed right. Everyone had to be quiet.....When we reached home, renee went up to bathe and conveniently helped herseff to your wardrobe - hehehe, see the inflated you???

Nice Picture

This is a great photo taken by a.is. Although this swimming blog has been written long ago, still I have to put this up, cause it's so cute....

Stage Performance

Yesterday we were supposed to pick jj from the airport, to collect our souvenirs, but mahmah called in the morning saying she will be coming for dinner with all her sisters. So I sms-ed jj asking him find his own way home.

We went to Dsara Palace. As usual you asked kk to bring you to the aquariums. After everyone came, you got your usual praises... Haha, then when u saw jj, you held your arms opened. He brought you to see lobsters & fish. Then I put you on the stage. You stood there so long and looked at the two tables, waiting for their attentions. pp & kk walked up to you and asked you to dance, you swung your arms from left to right (your way of dancing). You loved to stand up there - well you always loved attention, that's why. It's sort of like you were doing some kinda performance or such.

During dinner, mahmah brought you from this table to the next to show you off. She's always proud of you. How can anyone not be ? You looked at your friends (daddy's cousin's kids). So assuming you wanted to play with them, I brought you to the stage to play with them. You guys played, kohkoh & jeje coming.... You were screaming and laughing so much.

Soon dinner ended at 1030pm, you were already sleepy, So we left...

Where's That Trolley

We had to wait for a.is to come for dinner. So kk, pp & I brought you out for our routine walk. Hmm, I have stopped the routine walk for a long time, this is due to khaimah. I have to leave home early to see her for dinner... Anyway, as usual you enjoyed seeing the dogs, cats & birds.

Then we put you on the road. pp & I hold one hand each. You started to walk. I think must be the "falling" that made you didnt wanna walk. Poor thing, you fell too many times.

After dinner, we went to Tesco. You were so tired but still you nodded your head when asked if you wanna go Tesco. I looked high & low for the small trolley, but couldnt find any. So you stand up in the big trolley. Everytime when we are near the shelves, you will reach out and grab whatever you can. At the end of the spree, I had to put everything back.

Before we left, a.is saw 2 kids unloading their groceries from the small trolley. Our eyes didnt leave that trolley... The kids were still holding on to it. Once they let go, I went over to grab it. The we began to put some stuffs inside for you to push. You walked so far. And when we were behind, you would "eee-aaa" to us, and start complaining in your own baby language. You must be saying why arent we walking in front of you.

So funny.... After that we left. It took you 2 minutes to fall asleep in the car.

Kakak No.2

On Friday, pp's kakak finally arrived after 5 months waiting due to some complications. Anyway, she is okay, overall. When she saw u she played with you and wanted to carry you. You allowed her though. You did play with her.

Then during Saturday's dinner, kakak yati indirectly told kakak romi that SHE is YOUR kakak. I can feel that she is a little jealous when kakak romi plays or carries you. Well, for me it's okay, as long as they dont do funny funny things to you.

kk said kakak romi is kakak2, so everytime when we asked you where's kakak2 you'll look at her...

Clips

Well, being well-known as "the photographer", I've taken a lot of picture during yesterday's get-together. People always asked why am I doing that? Am I so free? Etc etc... Well, it's my interest at no cost. Well, for your information, either than your folder, I have a folder for every kiddo - jada, 2R (renee & reeve), lauren, ying2, 2D (davin & darren), zo-e, belen, ruey...

Waste no time, here you go... Enjoy the clips of yesterday's event.

Double Joy

Yesterday we reached a.sin's place at about 3pm. Everyone was there already (not exactly everyone - cause the usual late comers ie mr & mrs tang were still not at sight) - busy eating and playing and watching tv. You were busy playing with ying2's toys. At one point, you were playing with the drums, darren came over, you aaa at him, so I said, "RayErn you cannot do that, must share ok?" Both of you looked at me, then Darren aaa back at you, you crawled to me. So funny, straight away I told daddy & a.nicole.

We adults chatted a while before I started taking photo of everyone. Unfortunately my camera ran out of battery. The good thing was, it ran out at the right time. I was satisfied though.

The baby was so cute, but still we didnt know his name. a.sin asked me to take more pictures for them. I think it's already a norm that friends asked me to take photo. Well, I love photo taking and I dont really mind though, as I have the camera in my bag 24/7. She asked me to do the postcard-liked photo for her. He he, I did for all the babies though - renee, davin, ying2. Well, that was before I had you, cause by then I hadnt any time for other babies....

We then left for u.billy's house. We mothers & a.is went over first. In the car, Renee & you baby talked, only the 2 of you understood. You laughed to each other. After changing, we went to the pool. a.is was a good help though. She snapped a few photo. Renee pushed you round the pool. You loved the water. Reeve didnt join you guys as he has just recovered from the bad cough.

I brought you upstairs after 10 minutes as the wind was blowing hard. You were so cold. I saw you shivering. Poor thing. I know you were very tired. But still you didnt wanna sleep as there were too many people there.

I was a little glad that you didnt sleep, cause something so sweet happened...

1) You were standing at the console. Renee came over to hug you (both facing each other). You rested your head on her chest while she wrapped her arms around you, then patted your head.

2) Renee took a toy car from Reeve (he cried so much). a.janie asked her to give Reeve, but she didnt want, instead she shared it with you. Then when Reeve came over to scratch you, you turned to Renee whom protected you in a way.

Baby Lauren slept, it's a good thing that she can sleep anywhere, anytime. She laid on the sofa. You went over to her. I asked you to sayang her, you did. Then I said, "RayErn oi oi Lauren". You rested your head on her arms... So sweet.

I brought you into the guest room twice, but still you didnt wanna sleep. I gave up. We went down for dinner in Aunty Nat's. In the car you fell asleep. You were so tired that you didnt even need the pacifier. At the restaurant, you slept the whole time. You were really tired and uncomfortable, so we made a move first.

You slept until this morning.....

Note: No pictures here yet, as my PC is spoilt and I cannot download anything. Be patient and watch out for tomorrow's album.

Tiring Day Out

Yesaterday we went to Subang Imigression to make your passport. We left after seeing the long queue. We headed to DU for brunch before meeting the girls in Curve. You slept, I made you sleep. I didnt want you to be sleepy in the music class. We met them in Kopitiam for drinks.

We then left for Kindermusik. We parked our strollers outside and went into the studio. We met Cheryl the teacher. We had balls, jumped up & down, slide right to left, played with the drums and shakers. We were all given 2 shakers but you wanted more. Haha, towards the end, I guessed you were already bored, sleepy and wanted milk.

All the mothers thought we were more tired than the kids.

Not too nice, as compared to Gymboree. a.penny said we might as well pay RM18 for every session in Gymboree than to be tied down by these semester classes. I agreed with her.




We then went for drinks in Dome. We shared a lot. Reeve & you slept, while Lauren was busy self entertaining. Zo-e's kakak was trying hard to get her to sleep, while Jada walked & ran around showing off....

Although it wasnt as I expected, it's great to have a mother & baby get together!!! We should make this more often, maybe once a month???? Or more? Anytime Anyday in ERN...

Baldness Revealed

Well, this is you. I find it ugly though. Poor baby, my handsome son... I've saying you not leng jai, and called you botak... poor thing, i was so disappointed. pp & kk said you're so handsome, and assured me that you will get your hair back in 1 or 2 weeks time. When I asked where botak? You touched your head...

Anyway, I think you understand what I say. For the whole of yesterday, you wore a bandana, that's so surprising. You never allow me to put any head accessories for you, not longer than a minute. Oh god, I think you felt inferior too, sorry baby. I didnt mean to say that. Dont worry whether or not you have hair, you are still the most BEAUTIFUL in my eyes.

Surprisingly Bald

Just now pp called me asking whether I wanted lunch. Of course I do. So I waiting patiently for my lunch & my ceo to come. After 1/2 hour, pp called, asked me to go down to collect my lunch as you were sleeping. I went to her car. I looked behind to touch my precious boy, and OH MY GOD..... pp brought you to the barber for a haircut. Oh god, you looked different, and I dont really liked it though.

How am I supposed to bring you to make your passport then? You looked not yourself. And I cant postponed again or a.ailyn will kill me. This is the 4th time she asked, and she already called this morning to confirm. Oh god oh god....

When kk came back from lunch, I told him - he was so happy. kk always like you to be bald. hmmm.....And jj called, I told him, he laughed so loud just to annoy me. And I called a.ailyn to tell her, she laughed and asked me to mms her. I told jj & a.ailyn that I will mms them later today. Daddy called and I told him the same, he was so happy and said should have done that earlier............. ARGH!!!

Well some comments i received.... thru msn, sms & phone
u.rodney and u.redbean said bald's the in thing now....
a.is asked me to go home & take a picture of you for her.... i will definately & it'll be on the blog tomorrow

A Quick Review

Last weekend was like hell. I was so sick that I didnt dare carry you. Well, I am still sick while writing this. Nothing much really, Saturday we stayed home all day cause I couldnt walk much. You were as active as ever, crawling, climbing, riding.....

Then when night came, I took my medicine and went to bed. I could hear daddy patting you to sleep, but you didnt want. I slept on the floor as I didnt want you to catch the cold. But you came down and laid beside me. So sweet. After much crying, I couldnt help it but to carry you. We walked around dilly dally dilly dally... walked up & down, kitchen to living, dining to bedroom.

You finally slept at 2am. I dunno why, but I thought it might be because of the fall. Kakak said you cried for the past 3 nights. Oh god, that's after the fall.... I'm so worried. By then I was half dead.

The next morning you poked my eyes & nose & mouth again. Cute fella. When I opened my eyes to see you, you were rubbing your eyes. Then again poked my eyes. So cute. I got up and changed you, we have to go for lunch with yy & mm.

We then went to Ikano, Ikea & Curve. It was so packed. I guessed you like Ikano the most. When you saw the machines you pointed from far and nodded your head.... hahha daddy quickly brought you there. Then we went into Hytex, where you played a little.

After strolling around for like an hour and a half we headed home to wait for kk & pp for dinner.

At dinner, pp gave you a yam ball... You loved it and I caught you on camera. Chicky Boy!!! You were so happy, clapping and showing your very good sign... hehhehe yummy yum yum.

Gymboree

Last Friday, I missed first half of work to bring you to gymboree. a.penny & I thought of bringing you 2 monkeys for a trial class. I arrived a little early. The mums & kids there were friendly. As soon as I put you down, you started crawling everywhere - the slides the balls everywhere. There were like 10 pairs of mummy & baby. Then a.penny & zo-e came.

Let's see if mummy can remember them all. Ian, Ruyi, Nadya, Kai Xiang, etc etc...

Anyway, we started of singing and dancing. Then walked up & down the slides. You were the first to do everything. Then you played with balls and this & that. I was more tiring than you I guessed. There was a pool of balls for the kids to play. Everyone stood out and played with the ball, while you climbed and sat right on the balls. Hahaha.... The teacher said you were clever but greedy haha.

You enjoyed the bubble most. You tried to catch every one of them... which happened to burst when you laid your tiny finger on them. All the babies were around 12 -14 months. Youngest was zo-e. You were so big compared to all of them. The teacher was surprised to hear your age. She said you are a big boy... and at first she thought I lied to get into the class.

Anyway, you were more interested in the slides behind. You tend to crawled towards them and not pay much attention to the teacher. Funny.... When the teacher hid Gymbo (the clown) you opened up the cover to find it. The teacher said, "RayErn you're so clever!" I was so proud of you.








hello people, move it, i need to get to the other end....









i want the green ball.. hmm maybe all of them!!









aren't these all mine? you guys can play from the outside okay?









hmm... boring, i rather go on the slides

Then after that we left to Toys'R'Us. I bought you the bubbles...

We went to office and pp sent you home.

The Fall

At 930am, my phone rang & it was daddy. Unusual call at this time of the day. The conversation went something like this .....

Daddy: Where are you?
Me : Work la, then?
Daddy : You know your son fell? From the bed.
Me : Oh my god, what happened?
Daddy : I dont know, I was sleeping and he cried so loud. I woke up seeing him lying on the pillow on the floor crying so loud.
Me : Poor thing. How now? Is he okay? Is he vomitting? Is there a bump?
Daddy : He's okay, still crying.

Poor thing my son. I know this will happen sooner or later. Last week I was still proud to say that my son has not fallen off the bed. Today it happened. Poor thing. I was so 'sum thong'. I called pp, and she went over right away. I told her to pay extra attention. Just in case you vomit, you have to be admitted.

Then at 1030am, I asked her to bring you to the office. I needed to see you. When you arrived, you smiled at me.. Poor thing, but thank god you still played & laughed like you always do...

I Love Music

Yesterday daddy brought us to Ikano. I went to check Kindermusik. Lots of aunties & pohpohs asked me to bring you to music classes when they see how you react to songs (ie twinkle twinkle & if you're happy). I got the details. After that we went for sushi dinner. It was so nice. You loved the place. There you were so busy arranging the sauce plate. You put them on the belt. Haha... You had some of the okayo don & finished the whole chawanmushi.

You were so sleepy, you slept on the way home.

Early this morning, I msn-ed a.ailyn, a.penny, a.janie & a.audrey. I arranged an exclusive music class for you all. First Cheryl (the coordinator), said it would cost us more RM35. I told her that there will be 5 of us, so she gave us the normal RM28. So we are all set to go for the Music class on Tuesday 14:00 hours...

M&M Attack

Just now you brought me lunch. You laughed when you came into the office. As usual you went everywhere, messing everyone's desk. At one point while I was working on the computer, it suddenly went off. Thanks to my dearest child, you off it.

So I thought I had better bring you out for a while. We went to 7-Eleven. I bought you a toy mobile phone & your favorite mini m&m's. It's one thing that can make you sit down quietly, well at least for a while.

We came back to the office and you were so busy with the m&m. You took out one by one to feed me, then ate some yourself. After that I gave you a cup and you started entertaining yourself. You poured out everything into the cup and put them back into the tube - one by one.

I started my work as I guessed I will be leaving early again. Now you are sleeping soundly....

Sunday Pool Party

I organised a pool party yesterday. This time it was a pot luck cause I dont want pp to be too stressed cooking for a party of almost 20 everytime we had a get together. Anyway, just a list of food -

us - roasted duck

jj - pp's yummy tom yum mee hoon

a.ailyn - mouth watering la manilla hazelnut cake

a.janie - home cooked curry chicken

a.sin - delicious yong tau foo

a.audrey - all time favorite KFC

We ate from 4 till 8pm. After everyone arrived, I changed you to the new swimming trunk. You looked cute. You always loved the water. This time mummy stayed up to snap some pictures of everyone. The pool was so packed.... packed with mummies actually. You stand on yourself most of the time. Haha, but the water kept pushing you, you drank some water I guessed. Poor thing Belen couldnt go into the water as her hand was hurt. So she stood there playing with you outside.

After a while, kakak asked you to come up. You quickly squat down. She had to force you to come up. You cried, but baby, it's cold. i dont want you to catch a cold. So up we went to the room, to bathe and change. We went downstairs and kakak gave you a KFC drumstick and some mee hoon. I played mahjong with a.sin & a.janie. You wanted me to carry you so much, maybe it was because you wanted to play with the mahjong.

While playing, I watched you lil ones enjoying yourselves with the kakaks. Thank god you guys didnt fight. After we stopped playing, I brought out the baby bites, gave reeve & you. Then when ying2 saw, she came so fast and snatched the biscuit from you. You looked at her dont know what to do. I gave you another one.

I know you were tired. You were pulling your ears & rubbing your eyes. I thought I might as well see them out before putting you to bed. You waved good bye to everyone. I brought you upstairs to clean you up, changed you into your pyjamas. Then sang you your songs, read you your bedtime story while you rolled another thousand times before dozing off...

At 130am, you woke up. I knew this would come. You are too tired my boy. You cried and I had to turn on the CD-player before you stopped. It's nothing unusual. You looked at the player and rested in my arms. Pointed and holding the remote control to the player. After about 30 minutes, you slept again.

A Lot Of Buying

I woke up, but you were still sleeping. I couldnt sleep anymore cause of your pool party. I went downstairs to blow up the pool & cook breakfast. Before I finish blowing up the pool, I heard you crying. When I went up, you stood there looking at me sadly, sobbing. Usually you wake up smiling, daddy said because you didnt see me, that's why you cried.

After breakfast, we went out to do some groceries shopping. We went to Tesco. I gave you the tiny trolley. You pushed and walked yourself... Funny, too bad I didnt bring my camera, but I had it on my phone. Kakak saw you exhausted, so she put you in the mini trolley. When daddy asked if you liked it, you nodded.

We bought our stuffs. As usual, you wanted to join in so you busy "ee-aa" at everything you saw. To keep you quiet, I opened a pack of 'honey star'. You sat quietly until we pay.

Then we went to tabau the roasted duck for the pot luck. After that we went to Sg. Buloh to buy fish. Daddy bought you 3 fish. When we reached home, you took the net to catch them. Poor thing the fish.

And time passed.... 12pm - 1pm - 2pm - 3pm...... you tried so hard to stay awake, still no sign of the guests, until 3pm you dozed off.....

Not Really A Birthday Party

We left office at 1130am, to get pressies for Ruy Quin (a.suet mei’s daughter). It was her first also. Wow, so many birthday parties to attend these days. You were as usual shy, but after ½ hour you were crawling hi & low. a.suetmei, jj & I wanted to talk so I put you at the fridge while you played with the magnets. Then a.suetmei gave you grapes. You saw jj peeling the skins before eating them. You insisted on having one, then you started to peel the skins. You tried so hard, and finally when you got it out, you put it in your mouth. a.suetmei said you were clever.

Anyway, it wasnt really a birthday party. It was more like a family & close friend get together. Only 2 babies around, just you & RuyQuin. It's okay though. It's always good to have another friend. And that was why I brought you.

After that on the way home jj bought you McD fries. You loved it. We watched tv at home. Then kk came to play with you. Then you slept from 6 – 8pm. We met the other yap family for dinner. I fed you your porridge and renee wanted a little. In the end, she ate almost all of it. Reeve was busy enjoying his tomato pretzels.
You always loved seafood. Daddy fed you crab , that made you sat still.

After dinner we went home to watch movie. You 3 musketeers played a while before Reeve went up to bed.
Left you & renee. You both started with riding on the bikes, then into the tents, underneath the mattress, eating all the snacks you could find.

Then being a good husband, u.kwailo massaged a.vp. Everyone asked why you started hitting my back. I told them my lovely boy is giving me a massage. Hahaha, so cute, this manja fella. Daddy was jealous. I’m so proud of you. I‘m glad that you always share. You never cry when people take your toys. I love you.

You are so observant, or should I say curious. You always looked at people when they do things. Yesterday I observed you myself. I saw you looking at how u.kwailo took his sotong out to eat, how renee played your toys.

You slept at 1230am. I'm tired baby.

Yucky Barney

I'm sorry for the title, but I have never liked this purple dinosaur. I know it's educational, but I just didnt like it. And I got to know that it's having a concert in KL. That's funny, I thought it was just any other shows they have in the center concourse where anyone can see from the escalator & such. Until yesterday night only did I realised, it was a concert as in a real concert. A theater, a stage etc etc... I was so surprised when a.vp told me it cost her RM82 to go in (whether u are below 2 or adult). And that's supposed to be the cheapest. Madness!!! She told me it's the REAL barney (the one from USA).

It seemed quite popular though. a.desi brought belen last year. a.vp bringing renee & ying2 this year. u.rodney asked if I'm bringing you, if so, asked me to go with a.muych'ng & ruey. No way, and a big thank you for those who invited.

I'll stick to Disney's Playhouse - Jojo's Circus, Bob the Builder, Elmo's, Bear in the Big Blue House, etc etc.....

Lil' Hands & Feet

Nothing much happened yesterday. I went home you were sleeping. No matter how much I touched & disturbed you, you didnt wake up. pp said you hadnt slept the whole of yesterday, that's why. I took pictures again - of your hands & feet. I do that a lot. Cause when you are awake I never have the chance as you are always on the move.



You woke up at 7pm. Still sleepy, you clinged on to me. I brought you to the porch to see lizards... You laughed, but mummy was afraid of the reptilias, I kept a distance. Then went in to feed you your porridge & gave you your bath, before leaving to 1U for movie with a.vp(janie), a.sin, u.kwailo & u.johnny.
