It's been a while....

Hiyo!

It's been a really long time...

I suppose no one come into this blog and check if I m doing any updates now...

Been really really buzy.

Updates

Our new flat has arrived and is currently undergoing renovation.

I m preggie again...this time round I m expecting a pair of identical twins!!! They are gals, so by next year Mar, I would have 3 daughters :D

This time round, the pregnancy is much tougher and I need to put on more weight to make sure that the babies are carried to full term. Twins are normally premature....

We just bought a new car and need to get a maid by Jan next year...money, money....

Yuyan

Yuyan is growing very fast...her lingusitic ability sometimes astonishes us...

She learn and form words and actions almost instantly by observing your mouth and facial expressions. She's a very good imitator.

Words she can pronounce quite accurately: Ah Ma, Mama, Papa, apple, banana-na-na, Ah Pek, Yi-Er, Pear, Hello, Yellow, No-no-no (with fingers waving), Ah Gu, Ah Yi, Mei mei, Cher Cher, Ya ya, ball, ah Pen, bear bear, baby

Actions she can perform given verbal cues: point to nose, belly, face, eyes, ears, feet and mouth (she can even point to these body parts of a soft toy), kisses with muack sounds, pan kisses, clap hands (she loves to get people clapping for her), twinkle twinkle little star (hands open and close), hug soft toys, pat you on your shoulder, sayang mei mei (aka my stomach)

Toys she play: keyboard piano (play with her index fingers and feet), telephone (place receiver at ear and say helo, helo, helo!), put balls into containers, put anything that resemble a hat on her head, tear stickers and put them back, ply off magnets and place them back...

Food she now eats: she eats rice, porridge, pancakes, vego, fish, potato, carrots, spinach, bread, biscuits, pork, eggs, papaya, apple, banana now...she has about 8 teeth (4 on top and 4 at the bottom now)...she now drink little milk...

She has mastered the art of crawling all over, high and low and knows how to get down from a higher place safely. She understand when and wat not to touch when you glare at her and warn her...She will try her luck and move her hands towards the thing while peering if you are watching...She loves to play with ice, empty cold bottles...she loves flipping things over and throwing puzzle pieces all over...

She loves to imitate you brushing your teeth by sticking one finger into her mouth. She loves to drink her medicine and even imitate coughing to have you feed her the syrup with the syringe. She laughs when you nei nei nei bo bo her...she is the most happy when you bring her out of the house...she is the most dazed when you put her in a carseat as she could not do anything except to stare out of the car window...

She is now taking her few unassisted steps...

and she is only 12 months and 3 weeks!!!

I sound like those proud mothers but I can't help but marvel at how fast and well she grows :D

Some random photos of yuyan, the soon-to-be big sister...

















I love this photo of her...looks like me when I was her age...will go and search for my photo and post it up!


















Both yy and me celebrated our birthdays at the NTUC Downtown East Chalet on 20 Sept 2008. She celebrated her first bdae while I celebrated my 29th bdae...obviously, mr fat has been maintaining if not, increasing his weight...














She loves to flank off mr fat's spectacles whenever he carry her...














A gift from her ah-gu (the smelly uncle) - she loves to take the driver's seat and pretend that she is one of the F1 drivers, complete with boom boom, po po sounds...













She sways with ABC music videos on youtube, claps and nods her head as if catching the rhythm when her uncle and auntie play their guitars...
