Peek-a-boo In The Closet

Posted on November 25, 2009November 24, 2009 by Shireen

These days, this little cili padi loves playing peek-a-boo with us by hiding inside the closet. She is not afraid of being in the dark and will always push the sliding door of the closet to close it when she’s inside. I always drag her out of the closet as I don’t want her to…

Lovey-Dovey Sisters

Posted on November 24, 2009November 24, 2009 by Shireen

This is what I would normally do when #3 turns crabby when she’s up from her afternoon nap and #1 doesn’t want to get up from her nap: I’ll carry #3 to her jie jie’s bed and the reaction is almost magical. I would see smiles and hear giggling instantly. No fussing, no fretting, no temper…

Bye-Bye Cage

Posted on November 23, 2009 by Shireen

Last week someone bought the playpen that I had earlier advertised in my blog. Before we collapsed the playpen, we told Baby that we will be giving the playpen away. Baby seemed to understand what we were telling her and she was happy! Hubs then placed her inside the playpen for the last time and…

I Wan, I Wan…..

Posted on November 19, 2009November 18, 2009 by Shireen

Baby’s favorite line these days is “I wan, I wan, I waaaaaaan……”. She says it all the time – when she wants food, when she fights with her jie jies over toys, when she wants to go kai kai and when she wants just about anything. Her latest favorite word is “STOP!” and she says…

On A Typical Day…

Posted on November 16, 2009November 15, 2009 by Shireen

… this is what transpires at home: Baby will play with the house phone. We used to have a cordless phone but Baby kept playing and throwing it and it’s now spoilt. The cordless phone has since been replaced with our old non cordless phone. “Alo, alo, alo, dadee…..” Baby follows her samseng jie jie…

Welcome Terrible Twos

Posted on November 14, 2009November 13, 2009 by Shireen

Yesterday, I caned Baby with the rotan (which is our back scratcher) for the first time. She has been driving me bonkers with her incessant climbing and nose-diving stunts from one sofa to the other. A few days ago, she fell down when she climbed up the dining table chair and had a blue-black bump…

Steamed Fish And Pumpkin With Butter And Mixed Herbs

Posted on November 11, 2009November 11, 2009 by Shireen

This is one of Baby’s latest favorite dishes: Ma Yau fish slice with organic Japanese pumpkin (this type of pumpkin tastes very much better than regular local ones), McCormick mixed herbs and butter. This is before steaming. This is how it looks like after 8 minutes of steaming in the pot. Baby spoon-feeding herself. There…

Monkey See Monkey Do

Posted on November 10, 2009November 10, 2009 by Shireen

One reason why Baby is incredibly active and samseng is because her 2 jie jies are just like that. Monkey see monkey do, she’s getting really good training from both my 2 older gals whom I always call monkeys coz they climb, swing and jump non-stop. Baby is doing forward rolls on the bed here, with…

Baby C Is 19 Months Old

Posted on November 9, 2009November 9, 2009 by Shireen

Baby now loves to say “I wan” (I want) whenever she competes with her 2 jie jies to get food. She also loves to say “I wish” when she’s in a cheery mood but I really don’t know why she says that for I think she doesn’t know what it means. She will melt everyone’s heart…

Our Sunday

Posted on November 6, 2009November 6, 2009 by Shireen

Last Sunday was Aly and Sher’s pre-school concert. It was held at a public hall in town. I had to wake them up at 7am, got them all ready, dressed up in their costumes and put on make-up for them. They had to reach the hall by 9am. Alycia was dressed up in a sexy Rock…

Alycia’s The Best Jie Jie In The World

Posted on November 5, 2009November 4, 2009 by Shireen

People often tell me that first borns are always very caring and responsible. I think it’s so true. Alycia is indeed a very responsible and loving jie jie. If Baby is seated on the highchair during meal times and I’m busy in the kitchen, I don’t have to tell her what to do. She will…

Grim Reminder

Posted on November 4, 2009November 4, 2009 by Shireen

The 2 cuts on Baby’s abdomen never fail to remind me that I should be thankful that I got her back all in one piece, that I should be thankful that despite 2 major surgeries that she had so painfully endured, she is still one bubbly, active, smart baby who is developing pretty normally, albeit a…

What’s Up Baby?

Posted on November 2, 2009November 1, 2009 by Shireen

Baby has been driving me up the wall lately not only with her daredevil stunts but also with her diaper-removing and clothes-removing rebel! What’s up Baby? You have 5 more months to reach 2 years old, so why are all your Terrible Twos traits rearing their ugly head now? Feeding time is another hair-pulling, skin-tearing, tear-jerking…

Tiny But Mighty

Posted on October 31, 2009October 31, 2009 by Shireen

My cheeky Baby has been giving me the peeves for the past 1 week. There’s not a moment where she will obediently remain in the playpen, not even when her Alycia jie jie climbs inside to play with her. The second she’s placed inside her cage, this fiesty fler will pretend to bawl with flailing hands, then…

Baby C’s Potty And Bathroom Stories

Posted on October 26, 2009October 26, 2009 by Shireen

Whenever Baby refuses to stay in her playpen when I need to take my shower in the morning, she follows me into the bathroom. We’ll both do our business together – she on her potty and me on the throne. Baby used to have the patience to sit quietly on her potty while I take…

Baby C Wears Swimming Cap During Meal Times!

Posted on October 24, 2009 by Shireen

Meal times are now mess times for Baby. She wants to eat on her own and you know how a 1.5 year old feeds herself right? Food will be flung everywhere and stuck everywhere – her hair, her scalp (which is the hardest to clean, unless you wash her hair), her clothes, her highchair, the…
