Mom's too BUSY!

Image
Mommy was very tied up with work in the office... Poor thing, she has to bring her work back to home. There is not ample time for her to update our babbles... She decided - to squeeze some time daily for an update of our growing process.. With us, 2 monsters bothering her everyday, I guess it's really not easy to juggle.

Mini People in my brain

Mom: How do u know the Bala stays so high up in the flat? Ray: I know, cos my brain tells me. Mom: Y do u always say your brain? Who told u to say brain? Ray: Nobody, there is a small computer in my brain.. Eh, no no, medium computer. Then press the keyboard and I will think & do things. Mom: Huh? who press the keyboard? Ray: Mini people will type on the computer, in my brain. Then my hands n mouth will move. Then I can think n say

Journey to Walking Part VI

There she is, trying to stand & hold for a few seconds before squatting down... Now, she can hold more firmly onto handles and shift her legs a little. There was a little accident too, she "clipped" her own pinky finger (last finger) when she tried to open the shelf & closed it while not noticing that her finger was in between the door & the shelf.. She started to bawl only after about 5 seconds... That was a slow response but babies are usually like this when they were not so aware of their surroundings yet.

Mei Mei sensitive skin again

Image
Dunno if it is because of the pacifier that had caused the rashes to run around her lips area... Mom changed to Avent "NEW" Pacifier... looks like it. Advanced orthodontic pacifiers This looks like a good one, similar to NUK pacifier. Wider and looks more hygiene? Mom had just threw away one of the NUK Pacifiers. Left one NUK to standby. This Avent Pacifier cost around SGD 10.00 (cannot remember now due to short-memory from Mommy... :p) So far, Mei Mei is adapting well to this Pacifier for the past 2 nights. Except she looks as if - feeling weird maybe due to a bigger nipple? Most important of all, not much rashes anymore. So, it may be a good choice to switch to this Pacifier afterall.

Happy 5th Birthday to ME!

Image
Today is my 5th Birthday! 5 years ago, I was still a little tiny baby. Now, I had grown taller, bigger in size (of course) and naturally more mischievious! 5 years had passed and this was the 1st time I celebrated my birthday in a school. I was all excited about it! I kept going around, telling teachers & all my friends - my birthday is coming and Im holding a "party" in the school. Well, Mom was very excited too. She took pains to prepare the goody bags for me... Just only for my class - total of 11 boys & 3 girls. The rest of the schoolmates will get jelly from me each, some gotten sweets. GOODY BAGS Then, Mom collected the cake from Prima Deli in the morning itself. It was really a hectic morning as they need to place the icing sheet on top of the bare-body cake... Let's see! Nicely placed - simple & nice. Then, Mom & Dad proceed to school for my wonderful party! So coincidentally, one of the boys (my classmate) is also having his pa

My Birthday CAKE!

Image
So, I insisted on a BEN 10 Birthday. So, Mom had gotten the idea of ordering an Icing Sheet instead to place on my Birthday Cake. Mom ordered a Halal Birthday Cake from Prima Deli, since most of my school teachers are Muslims and some of my classmates & schoolmates are Muslims too. Well, Mom is really considerate as what her friends had commented. In fact, she didnt need to care so much about ordering a specific cake which is Halal to cater to the school folks. However, she just wanted everyone to enjoy the day with me. And being considerate is a good value. Thumbs up! Mommy! This is the link . 2 advantages! 1st - the icing sheet is Halal itself. 2nd - it is nearby our area, Tampines self collection. They do their reg post - but Mom prefers to self collect from them. This is the design Mom had done up on a Powerpoint - as a JPG file & send it to the icing sheet maker... And this is the cake which she had ordered from Prima Deli, without the toys and design on the top of

Dr Lily Aloe Vera Gel...GOOD

Image
After some research, instead of getting California Baby Calendula Cream , Mom decides to get Dr Lily Aloe Vera Gel instead. This was after the incident of me getting a serious body rash after a fever. Actually the fever was not very high, but Mom suspected - I had taken eggs (tiny bit of fried egg) and peanuts (peanut soup) which had aggravated the "fake measles" after the fever is gone. Usually, I am able to take in these foods, not daily but sometimes. But because they are highly allergic foods, my rashes got worse after taking them all. Imagine, it is only a tiny weeny bit of them. I didnt even eat the peanut itself but only drank the soup... Sesame oil is the other culprit as well. So, Mommies - Please do avoid such highly-allergic foods during a baby/toddler/kid's fever period. Well, it may not have happened before, but we cant promise that it will not happen... Being Mommy, just have to extremely careful.. when it comes to such sensitive cases.. Look at how my rash

Daddy not around

Image
One of the ocassions; Daddy was not at home. Somewhere around last week or so... He has to travel for some usual business trip. Mom was feeling bored, so she took some snap shots & send via email to Daddy... Err, he was not using any iphone.. plus no Blackberry yet at then. So, didnt send via Whatsapp. Haa. She thought this may "cheer" him up after some boring meeting with some agents/customers at overseas. I am forever showing my "teeth" whenever I am in camera shots. Mom gotta tell me to close my mouth & smile, then the cheeky smile will emerge out. Somehow, my smile looks exactly like Mommy.. Eyes that are squeezed into a line when smiled and the mouth kinda big, ... yeah, BIG. Anyway, Daddy was happy to receive the pictures. Mom & Dad had some video chat before they turn in for the day. We all missed Daddy at then, especially ME. I kept asking - Where is Daddy? Is he not coming back? Silly me...

Crocs Jibbitz

Image
Once in awhile, I will still wear my Crocs. But in order to encourage me to wear more often, Daddy went to get Jibbitz from the local Crocs Retail shop. Of course, it is always cheaper to get online from the US Store. Anyway, it is alright since the difference will not be much as it is only the accessories. Thomas the Train! Nice ones, and they can blink in its own colour when movements are "sensed". I was of course fantasized by this wonderful "lighting". I had always like colourful lightings since young. Mom cant understand.

Pumpkin Porridge

Image
Nice pumpkin porridge - recycled from our Daily Soup of the dinner. Because Pumpkins are sweet - Mei Mei loves the taste! No other ingredients, no salt nor any soy sauce. Just smashed the pumpkins into the porridge, and its ready to eat. Nowadays, Mei Mei starts to chew instead of swallow. Without molars, how to chew?! Well, she uses her gums to chew... That sounds interesting eh. This is what happens now when she "eats"...

My Birthday Cakes...

Image
This year will be my 5th Year Old Birthday. Mom decides to hold a mini celebration in my school. So, she has to decide what type of cake to order. I had told Mom - I want a BEN 10 Cake! So, she googled and found some nice Ben 10 cakes. They are mostly priced at SGD 80 to SGD 120. And are "home-made", usually Halal. Mom needs a Halal cake though - because I have a few Muslim friends in the school. Most of my teachers are Muslims too. But they are all my favorite teachers. Here are some cake designs..
