Hayley @ 14.5 months

Our youngest bean is getting bigger. she walks like a pro now, runs like she's stepping on coal, hardly ever crawls and loves screaming the word "Dahhhdeeeeee" and of coz, "NO!" btw, Dahdee usually means "mummy" cos she screams the word even when Jin is in the same room and only stops when I am within her sights :p

A quick run down on what she can say :
Words
- Dahdeee (mummy)
- pease (please)
- yeye (xie xie)
- NO!
- YES!
- ye ye (grandpa)
- mummee (yummy)
- What zi that (what is that)
- There!
- I lobb yew (my fav! I LOVE YOU)

she's still fairy light..8kgs at 13.5 months (and she was the same 8kgs at 10 months!)..doc said we have to give her pediasure but we persevered and patiently fed her and made sure she finished her meals and happy to report that at 14.5 months, she now weights 8.75kgs...woohoo,my arms are so gong to thank me in Hong Kong next month :p

her favourite game is "peek a BOO" and she loves running to us when stuffing her face in between our legs yelling "BOOO", "BOOO". hilarious!

This sweetie pie can also give kisses, rub nose and hugs with pats on demand.

The tiger in hayley comes out when she's upset. Usually when she sees Big Bean snuggling with me, she gets quite upset and rushes over to try smack her big sis. Aiyoh!

As for sleeping through the nite, hits and misses. some nights she sleeps from 8.30pm till 6am. sometimes she wakes up 2-4 times a night crying for us. sleep training is taking a looong time with this little one.

I love you little one, crazy fuzzy hair and all :)

Easter @ Penang

It was a good fun trip to Penang during easter. Good cos all the makan shops which are usually closed when we visit during CNY were opened! Fun cos jin's parents met us there from KL and took us to new places like the Youth Park which has not 1 but 3 huge playgrounds - best of all, free.

Spore biennale @ Old Kallang Airport

We finally got our lazy bums out of the house to visit the annual biennale at the old Kallang Airport. it was our first time seeing spore's first civil airport - small was my 1st impression of it. we were early so had most of the exhibits to ourselves. we had a great time just exploring room after room of funny art and then we headed down to the activities area where we made a kite and bean got a cute easter bunny balloon sculptor.


I am not sure if bean knew she was staring at bunches of hair

Swimbabe @ 5.5 months

Today's sunny and hot weather meant that the pool would be warm enough to bring Hayley into the pool for her first dip. She was a natural - doing froggy kicks the minute I held her in the water.


kawaii :)

Bean @33 months

Bean's latest antic is telling us that she is a naughty girl when she does not want to do what we want her to do. she will say :

Bean : I am a naughty girl! (gives us her haughtiest look, folds her arms and stamps her feet)
Me : naughty girls go stand in corner
Bean : I don't want to stand in corner..I am a good girl.
Me : "rolls eyes and giggles behind her back" :)

She loves :
puzzles, grape juice, fruits - grapes, bananas, strawberries, blueberries (i get all the sour ones), apples, broccoli, MUSHROOMS, pasta, yakult, chocolate milk, swimming, playgrounds, her pink scooter, BUNNY, mummy's milk, stickers, handiplast, licking jam off her bread, piggyback rides, iPad, feeding fishes, running errands with daddy, medicine, chocolate, grocery shopping, us reading to her , school and playing with her dolls.

She not so like :
water on her face (esp shampoo), washing her hands and feet when she gets home, putting away her toys, attention given to mei mei, mummy busy and working, THUNDER, creepy crawlies.

She can :
talk a lot, repeat her questions over and over again till she gets an answer, tell us 60% of the alphabets (mixes W for M), knows her numbers (mixes 6 and 9), spell her name, be incredibly sweet just to get things her way.




hanging out with poppy at jacob ballas - see how tall poppy is!



chillin with Hayley

mini bean turns 5 mths old!

i simple LURVE this little one - she greets us with smiles at her 2am feeds, at her 530am wayyy too early wake up sessions and every time we walk through the door. such a delight to come home and smell her goodness, ruffle her hair and shower kisses on her silky smooth baby skin.


see her hair after her bath :D

Hayley now has about 3 short naps during the day so by 7pm, she gets her milk and falls straight into her dreamland. we have given up waking her at midnight for her dreamfeed cos for some reason, she will still wake at 4am for milk. instead, we let her wake us up which is usually between 2 -4 am and jin (bless him) wakes up to feed her. most days she wakes up at 530am and starts coo-ing for us and since we tend to ignore her out of sleepiness, her coos turns to short shrieks and Marie (bless her too!) wakes up at 6am and tends to her.



she loves company and is usually quite contented playing by herself as long as someone is near her. she does enjoy sitting up more than lying down...guess she has some of my kepoh-ness ;)
