Alycia has been bugging me to trim her hair but busy mummy kept forgetting. Chinese schools are pretty strict with discipline and physical tidiness. If you want long hair – bun it up neatly. If not, make sure the back of your hair does not touch the collar. Duh, what a rule! Anyway, thank God…

Why Mummy?
Yesterday, Baby asked me a question which stumped me and had me lost for an answer. Baby – mummy, which is it when people do boxing, they put something white white like bread in the mouth? For a moment, my brain could not process what my 3.5yo toddler was trying to ask me but after…
She Talks
This morning after her shower, she stepped onto a strand of long hair on the bathroom floor. As she struggled to pull away the the hair that was entwined on her toes, she said “mummy, the hair likes me a lot” and then said “hair is rambut, right mummy?”. My baby girl, she is still…
Sick puppy
My little sick puppy is the most resilient pupper ever, just like she has always been. She survived 3 surgeries, did not shed a drop of tear when the doctor inserted an IV catheter into her hand 3 months ago for a MAG3 scan and now, she bounced back after ‘being away’ for 2 days….
Master Of Electronic Gadgets
Early this year when she just turned 3YO, she mastered the laptop. Months later, she mastered the iPad2. Now, this cili padi has mastered the Astro remote control coz she has finally recognized her numbers! This afternoon, I got a big surprise from her when she switched the channel from 855 (the TV is always…
My 3YO Out-Talking Me
Over lunch just now, my 3YO rascal was jumping up and down her chair at the dining table. Her 6.5YO che che was no better. She was hanging on the table like a primate. I was almost going to blow my top to see them behaving like that. Me – hey you two, stop jumping…
Am I Cute?
Recently, Baby found this very old owl mask that we got from an Enfagrow milk booth months or perhaps years ago. Each time she puts on the mask, she will come up to me, tap on my leg and say this “am I cute now mummy?” and then gives me her cutest, sweetest grin. And…
I Told You Not To Put In Your Computer?
…. continuation from my post yesterday on My 3 Year Old Samseng dated 12 Sept 2011… This morning, Baby saw her picture on the computer and she snapped at me… Baby – I told you not to put in your FACEBOOK?? Me – I did not put in my Facebook. This is my blog! Baby…
My 3YO Samseng
Funny conversations with Cassandra: I like to carry Baby, though she is already 3years 5 months. As I lifted her and carried her on my hip yesterday….. Me – baby, I love to carry you. You are so skinny and I can still carry you like a little puppy. Next year when you are 4…
Environmentally Conscious 3YO Girl
My 3YO daughter who makes me proud. She never fails to leave empty milk boxes, Vitagen bottles, plastic punnet after finishing her cherry tomatoes and empty shampoo bottles into the bag for recycling empty bottles in the wet kitchen. And I better not let her see me throw papers away with a clean reverse side,…
Bestest Che Che in the WWW
When I saw that Baby had dozed off on her favorite che che’s lap one night, I just had to snap a pic to capture the moment. It was such a heart-warming sight. I pray that my 3 girls will be the bestest of friends forever. No prize for guessing whose lazy leg was on…
Learning To Write From The iPad2
I used to spend a fortune on those alphabet and numbers tracing books for my girls. Baby has been learning how to write lately and has keen interest too. But this stingy mum does not want to spend so much money on those tracing books as sometimes she will get bored with the books and…
My Environment-Conscious 3-YO Girl
Baby is by far the most environment-conscious 3-YO girl I have ever met. She reminds her 2 sisters, kakak and me each time we forget to put empty bottles and boxes into the bags meant for recyclable items, in our wet kitchen. After drinking her packet milk and Vitagen, she will bring the empty box…
Hilarious Conversation… and Our Sunday
I just have to put this on record as this is too cute. Over dinner just now: Alycia – I don’t want to get married when I grow up. Cassandra, you don’t get married too ok? Me – Baby, you told mummy you want to get married when you grow up right? You told me…
Cassandra Says The Darndest Things
At 3years 4months, Baby is one very chatty toddler, who likes to speak with pun and sarcasm too. She is really good with her words. I guess this is contributed by the fact that she’s got 2 siblings as role models to her. She has the ability to tickle my funny bone all the time…
Learning From Their New iPad2
Rascal #2 learns very well in an environment that has elements of fun peppered with lots of visual and audio enhancement. She likes sounds and colors, not the boring black and white words and numbers. So our new iPad2 is now her best tutor. I love Apple for creating such wonderful apps for kids in…
