anyone wants to adopt my toys? - ALL TAKEN

2009-05-16T11:34:00.009+08:00

i'm tidying my toybox today and there are toys that i loved but i'm not playing with them much nowadays. mommy says we can put them up here to help them find a new home because they will be so lonely sitting in my box. please, can you bring them home with you? it will make a little boy / girl happy, i'm sure. please email mommy if you would like to adopt them. thank you!

TAKEN BY KRIS CHONG
my little plush toys. mommy washed them last month but it will be good to give them a little tumble in your washing machine and sun them again before you let your little boy / girl play with them.

TAKEN BY JULIA
thomas the engine medium set. all parts are still there (i think :) )

TAKEN BY JOLENE
this was a really fun game to play with daddy and mommy! oh and aunty joy too!

TAKEN BY KRIS CHONG
playdoh inside have been quite mixed up but it will be lots of fun still, pressing them into the shapes. be sure to line your table and floors with newspaper so the doh won't stick on them :)

TAKEN BY JULIA

connectors that can be fixed into different things (i used to turn them into guns haha!) and a box of plastic dinosaurs.

TAKEN BY JOLENE
wooden blocks are fun but i think a couple of shapes are missing. the wooden clapper is nice and loud :P

I love eggs, especially half boiled eggs. I can have that everyday for breakfast. I used to share with papa his breakfast eggs. At first I only take half an egg, then I took more… now I can finish 2 eggs on my own (and papa has no egg to eat … he can only eat kaya toast… kekekek…)

But now mama thinks I’m eating too many eggs so she told papa to stop giving them to me… boooooooooo

I love shaking hands. I shake hands with the uncles & aunties at red dot, at the hawker centre, in the mrt, anywhere. I shake hands with other children, big or small. The adults will come & shake hands but the children some times either go away or cries. I wonder why? I don’t look like a monster, do i?

2006-07-27T15:14:00.000+08:00

we had dinner at amoy hawker centre tonight, at the stall that we always go to (hello fat uncle :P). papa said i can try to eat on my own so mama put the rice, fish & veg into a bowl, gave me my own spoon. papa helped me scoop up the rice and put into my mouth. it was soooo fun cos i can flick the rice all over hahhaha... (of course papa didn't find it funny).

then i decided to get up from my seat to see what's on the table. hmmm... the little dish here looks interesting. i kept trying to touch the dish until finally mama gave up. she let me touch the little red things in there. then she let me taste my fingers... mmm? oopsss!

2006-05-07T13:09:00.000+08:00

i'm a big boy. why do i say that? 'cos i do big boy stuff... like

picking up my toys & putting them back into the basket, then helping mama carry it back to the shelf;
fetching the bath stuff (my shampoo, shower foam)when it's time to bathe;
packing away the bath stuff when i come back from my bath;
packing the pillows & blankets away when mama tells me to;
fetch my shoes whtn we are going out;
remove my shoes when we get home;
bring things for papa & mama when they ask me to;
roll up the yoga mats for mama after her class...

i'm now trying to put the chairs back after papa & mama get up but they're heavy so i have to push the chairs instead of carrying them... just wait... i'll be able to carry them up soon...

merry christmas, happy new year.... whatever ... hehehe

sorry i've not been updating this space. can't say i'm busy (how busy can a baby get? hehehe) but i... er... nevermind...

anyway, it's mega bonding day for me and mama today and we went swimming. it was soooo cold! but you know what? i was a brave boy (mama told papa that). i didn't kick up a fuss when she put me in the pool of terribly cold water. i didn't brawl when i tripped in the pool (ok i did scream for 2 seconds when i got up but stopped immediately when mama hugged me) i was struggling to get up, head under water for a second but mama didn't help me. she let me get up on my own. after that, i made sure i have at least one hand on mama before i moved :P

2005-09-03T13:54:00.000+08:00

2005-09-03T13:51:00.000+08:00

attention all babies!!!

2005-08-27T16:16:00.000+08:00

listen up, babies! i don't usually teach others my tricks but just this once, i will let u all in on my secret *wink* so read on!

how not to fall asleep (or be forced to go to sleep)
1. kick & scream when your papa or mama tries to put you down to sleep
2. eat as little as you can because if you are full, you may feel sleepy and hence fall asleep
3. pick up your favourite toy and keep on playing with it. if you happen to doze off, immediately wake up and pick up your toy again. pretend nothing happened, even if you fall & bang your head when you happen to doze off, do not cry. just continue playing
4. if you find that you are falling asleep, shake your head vigorously from side to side. that should keep you awake for a short while before you have to shake your head again.

my papa is trying to get the above education video done so watch this space. meanwhile, keep on practising!

my first (& last) teething biscuit

2005-08-11T13:57:00.000+08:00

mama let me try my first teething biscuit. it's quite hard & doesn't really have much taste (just like my ikea building blocks hehehe). in fact, papa says the way i chew on the biscuit is like me chewing on my building blocks hahaha... want a bite?

but then i almost choked 1 big chunk that i bit off & papa thinks it's dangerous so i don't get the teething biscuit anymore... :(

watermelon & peach

2005-08-03T13:03:00.000+08:00

aunty swan was here when i woke up in the afternoon. she was eating her lunch & then shared some fruits with mama. papa gave me a tiny piece of watermelon... i don't know if i like that. aunty swan said most babies don't... anyway when mama asked if i wanted another, i shook (yes i did! don't believe? ask aunty swan) my head.

mama had a peach tonight and bit of a small piece for me. it's cold & sweet. i like! so i opened my mouth & mama fed me a few more pieces. wonder what they will give me tomorrow?

my teeth!!

2005-08-01T12:46:00.000+08:00

hey! my first tooth is breaking out! what? you want to see? naaaaaa... mama tried to take a picture but i won't let her ... hehehehe

2005-07-30T13:22:00.000+08:00

mama brought me to meet aunty francesca for lunch last wednesday at the coffee club. the supervisor brought me a baby chair so mama can keep my stroller. mama was doubtful about chair because she was afraid i would try to climb out but she gave it a shot anyway. so i finally got to sit on my own... bear bear kept me company while mama & aunty francesca had their lunch... soooo cool.... hehehehe

2005-07-28T21:05:00.000+08:00

2005-07-17T14:38:00.000+08:00

when we went out for dinner this evening, i took my favourite toy out from the box and brought it with me. i was holding it, swinging my hands back and forth while sitting in the stroller. then it fell out of my hand. papa and mama didn't know and the kept on walking. they only found out when we reached yu hwa. booo hoooo hooo !

my rocking horse

2005-07-14T11:38:00.000+08:00

mama brought home something for me today. it's a rocking horse! isn't it cute? i still can't ride on it though. my legs are too short hehehehe... i can only ride on it when papa or mama hold me. but soon, very soon, i will be able to ride it on my own!

ouchiee... again

2005-07-12T06:24:00.000+08:00

"nananananana... mama, what's below this chair?"

"baby, please sit down. you forgot how you fell that..."

"maaaamaaaaaaaaa... mwaaaaaaaaaa!"

"oh no, not again..."

"hush baby. serves you right for not listening to mama," papa carried me up, laughing.

"hmmm... you scraped your nosey. let's put a little plaster on your nosey so it won't get infected, ok?"

ouchieeeee

2005-07-09T12:53:00.000+08:00

mama was feeding me brown rice porridge with broccolli yesterday. i hate the feeding chair so mama put me on the rattan chair instead. food was yummyyyyy but i was more attracted to mama's laptop on the table. let's see... i can hold on to the side of the chair and stand up. then i can reach out try to pull at the cable attached to the laptop.

"baby, please sit down. you are going to fall off the chair!!" mama was trying to clean off the blobs of porridge that i blew out hehehe...

i kept reaching out, further & further...

"plop!"

"muaaaaaaaaaa!!!! mamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

"now u see what happens? u get ouies for not sitting down properly. did u bump your head? let papa check"

"it's ok baby. don't do that again, understand? come, let mama carry u. u want some water? no? do u want to eat some more porridge?"

yummmm... porridge tastes even better when i eat it while sitting on mama's lap hehehehe...

this was how it all started... daaaa.... it's just a re-enactment

2005-07-09T00:37:00.000+08:00

ah choooooo... *sniff* *sniff*

i had a fever yesterday & mama gave me medicine, some pink liquid... mama said it smelt like strawberry... what's a strawberry?

yuck! what's that funny taste? papa's making me take that yucky stuff. i'm just going to let it all dribble out from the side of my mouth hehehe

doctor told mama that my fever is high, 38.7 deg. and i have viral flu. he said that's also the reason why i can't poop yesterday. oh it was soooo painful! i came up with 2 hard chunks in the day. at 4 am, my tummy was very upset and i had to poop but it was sooooo painful i cried and cried till the poop came out. there... i'm much better now mama, no more pain in the tummy or bum :)

oh pls don't make me take that horrible stuff papa... *bleck* there, i managed to take them all out from my stomach... time for shower! yippee!

what!??!! i have to take that again? noooooooooooooooooooooooo

hmmm... i want to play with mama... mama's singing me a little tune... it's familiar *yawn* mmmm zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
