2 of us

Most of the time I will not let mei-mei play with my toys while I CAN play with her toys!! It was so unreasonable right? So whenever I see mei-mei sitting in my car or play with my toys, I will said: mei-mei, don’t take, it is mine! But I am now learning to share my toys with mei-mei, otherwise I will not get to play her toys. I will now take other toys and try to exchange with her so that she will let go my toys and most of the time it works! Tell you something, mei-mei is not so gentle as well, she will snatch with me and sometimes she will hold the toys so tightly till I couldn’t even win her! She is smart too, she will cry or whine when she couldn’t win me.. hehe
Here we are riding our own car and I will purposely ride and bang her! Look at the bottom picture, initially we were happily playing together but after a while, mei-mei messed up my blocks and I was so mad! Look at my angry and sad face..

Funny faces by Yu-qi

Latest favorite activity of mei-mei.. She likes to dig her nose when she has nothing to do!! It was so unsightly right? We have no clue where she learned from but mummy think the (role model) is me because I love to dig nose too. So perhaps after seeing me digging my nose repeatedly, mei-mei followed me!

Here is another two funny faces that mei-mei likes to do nowadays. On the bottom picture, she likes to closed her eyes tightly and smiles when we asked her to smile :-)

Relax @ pool

It has been a while since we last visited the pool. So mummy suggests going for a swim and she is sure that yu-qi will enjoyed because she loves to play with water! Since she is a month old, she loves to be bath because everytime she will lie down quietly :-)

























Today is her 2nd time to a pool and she is so excited to go down to the pool when we just reached even though mummy hasn’t changed her! Look at her smiley face in the 1st picture!

























As for me, I don’t like to swim because everytime when we visited the pool, I will just sit at a corner and play with the cups and bowls! Even though with a float, I am also not keen to sit on it unlike other children :-)

























Nowadays, yu-qi likes to play with the staircase. When mummy brought her for a walk outside the corridor, she will show us her interest to walk up the staircase and mummy will support her. So when she saw the staircase at the pool, she also wants to walk up or rather climb up..

HortPark

Daddy asked me do I want to visit butterfly garden, and of course my answer is YES! So on two Saturday ago, we went to Botanic gardens (daddy thought the butterfly garden is located at Botanic gardens), then only we were told that butterfly garden is located at HortPark, the gardening hub at Alexandra. So we make our turn there and the weather is super hot in the afternoon!

























HortPark is a gardening hub where it has a collection of 20 theme gardens which include Herb & Spice garden, Water garden, Fruit tree & Fruited Vegetable garden, Orchid corner etc.

























There was an event on Science in the garden where you play to learn and learn to play. I get to do some art and craft such as butterfly and also a flower fan with the help of mummy and daddy.



























Mummy said the butterfly garden is quite small but to me it is big enough already. I get to see so many butterflies and dragonflies flying around!

























And this is the edible yard. I feel like plucking them when I saw it :)

Fidgets

Last Wednesday we went to Fidgets at Turf City with my friends, Shannyn, Julian, Claryce and Joelle. It is a nice outing as all of us enjoyed ourselves! All of us are full of energy where we can play from 1pm till 6pm!
























I enjoy playing slides nowadays! Look at this slide, isn’t it steep? Mummy said she is scared to slide down and I told her, quick, carry me and slide down! Mummy was happy that I am getting more adventurous nowadays :)

























All of us enjoyed riding the cars but there are only 2 cars around. So we take turns to play and Julian likes to push Shannyn around but Shannyn prefers to drive on her own *_*

























Yu-qi enjoyed herself too. She likes to play the slides and climbs the staircase. Too bad, most of the pictures taken by mummy in Fidgets have been corrupted; otherwise you can see more pictures of qiqi enjoying herself.

























This is the first time yu-qi met her friends, Claryce and Joelle. Claryce is about 2 weeks younger than qiqi and she is so chubby! Mummy loves her (bak bak) thigh so much. As for Joelle, she is only 4 months old and she is a cute baby :)

























This is the group photos, together with Aunty Chantelle and Aunty Jammie. Thanks to Aunty Jammie for these photos because both mummy and Aunty Chantelle’s camera was either battery flat or memory card full when towards end of the day

Yu-Qi is 10mths old today

Today yu-qi turns 10 months old. Mummy mentioned that yu-qi is really an active girl as compared to me because she can’t sit still at times. Can u imagine she can even stand up in her high chair recently with her seat belt on? She is also good at pretending because she will whine when she saw daddy and mummy walk passed her without carrying her!

At 10months,
She only has 2 teeth;
She can walk around in her play yard now when holding to the bar;
She can stand for about few seconds without support;
She can clap her hands when she hears the song “if u happy and u know it clap your hands”;
She will imitate whatever we do;
She can follow some simple instructions from us such as when told to sit down, pass the ball to daddy;
She can speak ball, pear, papa and bear; (though at times not so clear)
She likes to push the car and walker around instead of sitting on it.

In another 2 months time she will turn 1 year old! Time really flies…..

Photoshoot by Sean Lau

Mummy was worried about the results of the photo shooting when she about to collect the soft copies from the studio on Monday night. Surprisingly there are still a number of photos with yu-qi smiling :-)
Overall, mummy was pleased with the photos taken by Sean Lau, just that if yu-qi is more co-operative, then the results will be so much better! For more pictures, please refer to the slide show.
Fyi, yu-qi has these pictures taken when she was 9 mths 1 wk whereas yu-fei was 2 years 8mths.

Mummy's birthday ( 7 Sep)

7th of Sep is mummy’s birthday and mummy will be joining the 3’s club next year! Daddy treat mummy to have an Italian lunch on Sunday and bought a cake from Canele on her actual day. Me and mei mei wish mummy all the best and Happy birthday to our dearest mummy!

Notice the wording on the piece of chocolate? It writes: Happy Birthday to our Greatest Women! Daddy said this is the best description!

Army Open House 09

Last Saturday daddy brought us to the Army Open House at Pasir Laba Camp. We reached there around 5pm as they closed at 7pm. Initially i refused to go up the trucks but after 15mins, i was all ready to go! Don't know why, i simply love steering wheels as i like to play pretends now.. I keep telling daddy that i want to drive, i want to drive.. Refer to the pictures as it speaks better :-)

Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa by yu-qi

Yu-qi is saying pa-pa-pa-pa nowadays. check out the video!

My racing car

Hurray, daddy bought me a second hand racing car! I was thrilled when I saw it cause I simply loves it. Almost everyday evening I will ride on it at the corridor by myself. Look at the video, I can ride and control the steering wheel well.

Qian Hu fish farm & vegetable farm

Remember I mentioned at my previous post that I want to catch fish too when I saw some of the children catching lonkang fish at Agro-Education Center at Qian Hu fish farm? And here I am catching the longkang fish. Daddy paid $5 for a net and a small tank from the counter and we can catch unlimited fishes. Initially we think it is a good deal but actually it is not, because the net they provided is so small! When you put the net down to the pond, all the fishes will swim away! Guess what? I couldn’t even catch a small fish. So daddy is helping me with the job, he used the net and his hand to scoop up the fishes. (daddy play cheat) :-) At the end, daddy managed to catch about 15 fishes within 10 mins and we proceed to the counter to pack it and bring it home.
When we reach home, daddy set up a small fish tank and transfer all the fishes in for me and those fishes become my pet and I was told by daddy that I have to take care of my fishes and feed them fish food everyday. Guess what? Those fishes die one by one by the 3rd day we bring it home! Daddy said it is due to change of environment and therefore he bought me some fishes from the fish shop.




























And this is my fish tank. I enjoyed looking at the fishes swimming freely everyday and feed them fish food only when I feel like to :-)

After Qian Hu fish farm, we proceed to ah-ma’s friend’s vegetable farm. It was nice to see fresh vegetables! There are xiao bai cai, nai bai, cai xin etc etc and the kind aunty gave us so many packs of vegetables that can last for a week!
