Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri

It's Hari Raya today and both mummy & daddy don't have to work. Woke up at 830am and played with my neighbour, "Tomae" jie jie (her mummy gave her this nick for Tomatoe).
Then in the late morning, we went for a swim at xiao yi's house with Rayden kor kor and Renise.

See, i can pillion Tomae jie jie. This is so fun.

Hmm...you think daddy will get one for me?


Daddy & mummy bought a new bicycle for Rayden kor kor for his 3 years old birthday. Rayden kor kor has outgrown the one which daddy bought about 1.5 years ago. Hee...he was so excited when he saw his new bike.

2 littles ones playing together.


Eagan: Mei mei, why do you need to wear a hat to go swimming?

Renise: Don't you think i look like those rich tai-tais?


Where's daddy?


Seems like mei mei doesn't like swimming or was it the cap?


I slept from 2pm to 6pm after the swim. What a great PH!

Casual Shots By Daddy

Daddy took some casual shots of me last weekend when i was concentrating playing, biting, licking, tearing, flipping the book. Daddy thought his little darling looks cute and decided to bring out his camera and started clicking away.

See, obvious double eyelid on my right eye today.


Didn't know book can taste so yummy.


Was being punished for biting the book. Got to hold the book above my head till daddy says ok. Start to appreciate my book only after the punishment.


Learning some baby words.


Looking so studious.


A quiet side of me, finally:-)

如意油

I always like playing with the 如意油 bottle since i was about 4 months old. The adults always use this to distract me while dressing me up.

Btw, 奶奶 mentioned there's different brands of the 如意油 available in the market. There's one with ship and another with oranges. And the one i'm using is the one with oranges call 吉祥牌如意油. This brand seems to work better coz it's gentler on the little stomach.

Me and my 吉祥牌如意油.


Huh??? Mummy has taken out the bottle and gave me only an empty case.

F1 Racer

Went IMM 2 weekends ago and dear 大姨 sponsored me a ride on this Little Tikes car. It was fun and i was jumping in excitement for the first 10mins or so, thereafter.....

Looking all serious.


Trying to act cool and started staring around. Finally, decided that the ride was nothing like the real F1, so trying to climb my way out like the F1 driver does.

Double Digit!

Ha, finally i've reached the big "10"! Turned 10 months old yesterday and my family celebrated this special day "for me" at MOF Japanese restaurant.

I now weigh 10kg & here's my development at 10:

• Stands while holding onto something
• Jabbers or combines syllables
• Understands object permanence
Cruises while holding onto furniture
• Drinks from a straw
• Eats with fingers
• Bangs objects together
• Plays patty-cake and peek-a-boo
• Says "mama" and "dada" to the correct parent - I tend to say "Dar Di" instead of dada.
• Waves goodbye
• Opens and closes my palm to indicate "Come"
• Picks things up with pincer grasp
Crawls well, with belly off the ground
• Indicates wants with gestures
• Stands alone for a couple of seconds
• Puts objects into a container - I'm also very good at throwing things out from the container:p
• Clap upon cue or when i hear "Happy birthday to you..." & "If you happy and you know it clap yr hand..."
• Raise up my hand when daddy & mummy tell me that we're crossing the road.
• Pull up my shirt when someone asks me where's my stomach.
• Identifies: Fan, Ball, Ballon, CD Player, etc.

Tracking my tooth development at 10th month:

2 more lateral incisors sprouting out.

New Play Gym

As i hit the big "10" (both age and weight), 奶奶 finds it more and more difficult to carry me around the house whole day. It's no longer safe to place me in the walker nor can she put me in my bumbo chair. Worst of all, 奶奶 rarely dare to let me crawl around the house coz she is afraid i might hurt myself (mummy & daddy shaking head). They were contemplating whether to get me a playpen or something else that they can leave me safely play in. And then, mummy chanced upon another November mummy's blog and saw the play gym, so they decided to get one for me.


My new toy. Can get a bit hot staying in there for too long.


This is what happens when things start to get too boring. I basically tear things down!


Caught in action. Throwing the balls out one by one.

Family BBQ

We'd our 1st family BBQ 2 weekends ago at East Coast Park. Thank GOD it was nice weather on that day and everyone had a good time and here's some photos taken:

Wearing the same colour theme as cousin Dyan.


My macho jiu jiu pitching the tent for the little ones to change diaper and nap. Thanks jiu jiu!


The sexy & fleshy Renise. Btw, some people mentioned xiao yi looks like mummy in this photo, you reckon?


Naughty mummy bullying my wonderful 公公.


Our chef cook.


Laying on the sand, feeling the sea breeze, it's a really wonderful experience.


Rushing to take some family portrait before sunset.

2 little ones crawling around freely on the mat. Really comfy and cooling feel laying on the sand. At least mummy didn't need to worry me bumping my 2 front teeth:)

It suddenly became very windy, so mummy geared me up with my cap and babyleg to keep me warm. And here's daddy teaching me to say "Hi" and mummy grumbled that she has very few nice photos with me coz she's always busy clicking away with me and daddy. Oppss...yet another not so nice photo with my eyes closed:p


Happy family. With so many kiddos around, it always seems impossible to get the perfect shot.
