By the sea...

Today,
you wore a bikini for the first time,
you were at the beach for the first time,
you had the sea breeze brushed thru your face for the first time
you felt the texture of the sand for the first time,
you smelled the scent of the sea for the first time,
you saw the horses' face close enough that you could smell it's breath for the first time,
you had the parachute flew over your head for the first time,
you were in the swimming pool with Pa for the first time,
you tasted a little ice-cream for the first time.


Today,
sky was blue,
water was green,
sand was golden.

Today,

everyone is by the beach,

your little friend Cayden, Jordan, Aaron, auntie Linna & uncle Sam, auntie Peggy & uncle Daryl, Kim, Leng Lui Po Po & ah Kung...

Your first word

Your first word?
Of course calling Papa - your favorite person on earth.
The person you have a huge smile on your face every time you see.
Your Pa was so so happy and overjoy the moment you called him. This seriously came as a surprise for us on this hot Sunday afternoon.
You have just made his day baby.
He feels so proud that the first word you said is calling for him, ya not even me...but i think Pa definitely deserve it.
Can't wait for you to start talking now as I can't wait to know what you think of me as a mom...

A night out

A night out with Kai Ma, uncle Blair and uncle Damian along Batu Ferringhi Walk.
Night market is cool and buying pirated DVD is exiting...

Your 1st christmas

Merry Christmas my cutie pie... muah ..muah...kisses all over your face from mommy!

This is our first Christmas with you, we had you as our best gift ever!
Plus your kai ma Sue and uncle Blair are here to make this day a more than a perfect day.

I was actually quite surprise how both of you just got along so well.

You didn't cry nor make a fuss like how you would normally do when you met her.

I'm proud how you behave today. Happy, cheerful, played and did your own thing. You are a totally cool babe!

Ma Sue and uncle Blair cooked Christmas lunch for all of us and we went to the Little India in the afternoon. You seem very amazed with all the activities and music that was going on down there.

It was totally a nice and pleasant day today, specially with you around.

Pa & ma had picked a typical classic Christmas gift for you.

Actually we let you choose between a reindeer soft toy and this snow globe, and you seems to be more exited when you saw the globe, so we decided to go with this snow globe.

So, here you go, your 1st Christmas gift from mom & dad...

No more drool

Chinese believes that by holding this little ceremony on the 100th days of the baby's life:

1. with biscuits

where you hang a bunch of biscuit around baby's neck, so that they could go on and lick and take a bite on the biscuit, the mother will then have to eat those biscuits, the baby will stop drooling (WOW...no more bibs)

2. with drumstick

prepare and cook drumstick to make it the most delicious, let the baby taste and lick the drumstick, the baby will not have any problem while teething, and from this day onwards they can start to go on and become a carnivore, meaning they can start to have meat in their diet, they have more choice in food from this day onwards (WOW)

Mommy didn't hold this little ceremony for you.

Main reason is: I don't believe in this and I don't think I could relate this to any scientific and medical facts.

However, you do have a chance to take part in this too because auntie Peggy was holding one for Cayden and so happen we visited. So, you got the chance to wear the biscuits chain and licked the biscuits with Cayden's saliva on it. Yes, you hear me right, haha. You were really fast and greedy while licking and biting on those little biscuits. But you don't like the drumstick part, you started crying and got cranky.

Guess what, you are still drooling big time weeks after borrowing and taking part in Cayden's ceremony.
This is fun. Thanks to anutie Peggy & Cayden.

Sleeping with toy

Caught you holding one of your favorite toy while sleeping.
That is one of your favorite toy bough for you by Da Ee.

You cherish and love your toys now, but when you grow older, you will learn to cherish something more valuable - MEMORIES

Weekend getaway

We went back to see Ah kong and Ah ma during the weekend.
You were surrounded by all your cousins.

You seem to be enjoying your stay quite a fair bit as you were being carried by so many people in the house to places where you were busy looking and observing many activities and different sounds all over the place.

Gift from Kai Ma Sue

Kai Ma Sue brought you lot's of really nice & meaningful gifts this trip.

1. Nice and special photo album that Kai Ma Sue specially hand picked all the accessories and made personally for you. Mommy think it is really unique and meaningful. It is the nicest baby scrap book I've seen.

2. This little Picture Me book:



3. A treasure tin which we could keep your foot print forever but I've help you ruined it on Christmas day as we were having lunch and I totally forgot about the clay that I had mixed 30 mins ago and it has became totally harden when uncle Blair reminded me. So sorry kiddo. Mommy apologise. My fault.


4. Tons of new clothes to last you until the next Christmas:

A weekend with you

You seems like you've grown a fair bit when mommy took you home this week.

Totally in good and playing mood.
You were laughing out loud so hard every time I said: naughty girl...bad...bad...bad...

I am just not sure how exactly does funny expression and our tone is working for you right now or what you've heard exactly as it surely sounded so amusing to you and you were laughing at the same sentence I said for like 15 mins, amazing...

But you might started to think what a complete idiot I was when you look back 10-15 years from now.

A weekend with you always just passed by so quick before I even realising it.

Looking at your face that is as pure as the spring water make me feel clam.

And it is always the simple time we share that make mommy feel most happy.
