I can read!

After being in this school for almost 3months, Daddy had not stopped singing praises about my speech & choice of words learnt in the school. Compared to my ex-school, it was really a world of difference. Perhaps I would say, the teachers are important. I had stopped refusals to school and happily bring my toys & sometimes foods to school for sharing with my school mates. In the past, I didnt have the habit in the old school. So sometimes, change of environment is really a must even for toddlers like me. I am able to count properly. Although I do not have many worksheets like my ex-school, it seems that I am learning better with occasional learning papers. Our decision of changing school is indeed right; apart from shunning away from unnecessary harassment... >_< Last night, we begin our reading routine as usual before bedtime. Am able to read on my own! Check out the vid above!

My Bro Javier

Image
We had an appointment today - YES! To the library & back to Javier house for some play-time! I just love to be with Javier and enjoy his company very much. Mommy is happy to see us enjoying with each other. One thing she is glad, lucky she is not having 2 sons with a close age gap like say 1 year or less. That was what she had talked to Aunty Sammi the other day before. Otherwise, its gonna be a handful for Mommy.  Few days ago, Aunty Helen also mentioned something about having kids of the same sexes. And yes, Mommy agrees that having 2 girls or more - tongues will wag especially in this Asian society. Basically, the Chinese prefers a son than daughter. Our Por Por also have 2 daughters and glad to say, both are as good and filial. Nowadays, men listen to their wives more than to their mothers. Its the same as my Mommy would want Daddy to listen to her first.*GRIN* Having the same sexes for all the children, there are common toys to play with. Hand-me-downs are easier. On the...

In hood

Image
As usual, we headed to the Temple for our weekly prayers. Since I was born, we had been going to the same temple every week for 4 years plus. We will continue to do so as long as we are able to. Mom snap some pictures; since am in this hooded sweater. Actually the size of this sweater is 3T. Because of my petite size, am still able to fit in. Well, since mei mei is much smaller in size, guess she can wear this sweater longer next time.  Talking about sizes, Mom has a cousin whose son is over-weight. Actually she is glad that the both of us are not. Being obese, over-weight, will have more health problems in future. Although Mom envies babies & kids whom are much fleshy, since we look skinny; sometimes we have to put up with those gossips like, "Aiyo, your Mommy didnt feed you arh?", "Wah, why are u so skinny?", "This Mommy dunno how to look after her kids", Mom is honestly very fed up with all these comments. But nevertheless, health is most important,...

Girls clothes

Image
Yesterday, Mei mei wore a nice hand-me-down jacket from Aunty Sammi to Por Por house. So nice & cute! Actually in general, it is so easy to buy clothes for girls, compared to boys. It has always been a breeze to shop online for my clothes, be it tops, bottoms (pants/shorts); caps, etc. The colours are very standard. It is either blue, green, brown, yellow, ... etc just that few boyish colours. As for designs, they are even easier to choose from. Now, choosing & buying girls clothes has started to become a challenge for Mommy. Hence, that explains WHY UNTIL NOW, Mom has not really bought any dress for me yet. The more she browse the online catalogs, Polo Ralph, Gap, Children's Place, Carter's, etc, the more confused she is... she dunno which one to choose from. Well again, Mom remembers not to buy too many clothes because babies outgrow clothes very quickly before you can imagine. Just like me; if Mom had not re-packed my clothes for Mei mei the other time, she ...

I'm still so skinny

Image
No matter how much I eat, I'm still as skinny. Only distinctive feature is my bloated tummy tum tum. Until now, still dunno the cause behind this big tum. Suppose to disappear though since I'm already 4 years old.. But seems it's there. My stomach is a little weak.. So hopefully, it will diminish as I really gets a bit older. Modeling; didn't know I can be so photogenic at times....

Lego GUN?

Image
Playing Lego is of course more educational than any other toys... Mom feels more glad to see me with Lego of playing whole day. Now that even though we changed maid, I still scold the maid & all. Ended up I scolded her even louder. Sometimes I would ask the maid to build the blocks with me... Quite bored and I rather mommy instead. See the Lego gun I have!!!!

Train ride with Mommy

Image
Its been quite some time for me to spend quality time with Mommy. Now that mei mei still very young, we can still have some time together to read book and play short games... Today, Mommy brought me to downtown east and we saw Kungfu Panda! I insisted on the cute train ride. So 3 of us sat together although mei mei dunno ways going on. Such a nice experience for me; boring one for Mommy for sure. Mom tried to capture a pix of me with Panda... I can't stand still as kept looking back at the Panda. When will I start to watch my first maiden movie with Mommy?

Beat people

A very interesting conversation: Mom : Next time if people beat / bully your mei mei, u must stand up for her and beat them back yeah. Ray : Cannot, Teacher said if someone beats you, you cannot beat back this person. Mom : Oh then what must you do? Ray : Report to teacher Mom : So if someone beats mei mei, how?? Ray : Then I tell the policeman loh! Mom : **speechless**

My new snack wz dinner

Image
As usual, mom bought a nice new snack for me. I always ask to eat snack after dinner... Through the hard work & efforts, I had loved and learnt that rice is important to us as it gives us strength & energy. Mom's rules: Eat rice first then followed by Snacks. Sometimes I ate too much rice till I have not much appetite to eat my favorite snacks... At times, I will bargain with Mom till she got so fed up with me.... Because I know; if I finished the big bowl of rice, my small tum will not have any more space for the M & M Chocolates, Wan-Wan Biscuit, Jelly, Sweets, etc.

Mei mei in sarong

Image
See mei mei in sarong... Mom collate all the pictures and chose the best 3 shots... So far do good, mei mei is adapting well in it. At least besides the soother, sarong is another good helper to mom.. So much abt maid's, mom has not train her anything on baby are yet. Wait till she passed this 1-mth probation, mom will determine if she can look after mei mei... Hopefully we dun need to change maid again; to put mei mei on infant care...

BCG Jab (lousy)

Image
Mom is very displeased with the doc whom had given mei mei the BCG JAB. Mom remembered I didn't have this pus when I had it 4 years ago... It's either the dkc is lousy or mei mei skin is sensitive... Poor little girl, no choice but to put antiseptic cream once a day even though nurse advised not to.. The wound looks like a volcano crater man!!   Now it's recovering but can't touch water until the skin grows back slowly... The fragile skin peels off again when touches just a little water. So mom is extremely careful when bathing mei mei.

Girl girl is so cute!

Image
Mom realised there are just so many nice dresses for baby girl. As she was browsing through so many US & Europe websites, she just cannot control her spending.... Gosh, she is gonna spend more and more real soon now... Supportive Spouse being the CONTROLLING PARTY... hahahaa, may not even have any say as well. Anyway, just by looking at the above purple dress, Mom feels so sweet for meimei.... Nice dress given hand-down by Aunty Sammi... So Pretty dress!

Crying or 撒娇

Image
Mei mei cries are just so funny & cute. Mom likes it when mei mei pressed her lips and make a sad face... Well, sounds like mom is a sadist but actually she dun mean that. She just finds her cute.. But hey, dun mess around with her. She looks fierce though when she cries very hard..

Big Eye Mei Mei

Image
Didn't know mei mei got such big bright eyes man!! Could it because of fish oils which mom been taking during pregnancy? All mommies; taking fish oils not only providing omega 3 but it seems to give very nice big eyes... They looked as though wearing those enlarged-pupils contact lens... 难道,她是下一代的大眼辣妹妹!
