The playful little girl


Recorded on 19/8/07

My friend (aunty Yvonne) has been asking me, what would Claudia usually do during the day when she is not sleeping, well frankly, I don't have the idea, reason being, most of the time, I'll be spending my time in the office, and doing shopping or outing during weekends, I don't really sit down to watch her every movement, until recently, when I was not feeling well, I stayed home to rest.

Wow, I can tell you. She was busy ... busy messing around, took out all the magazines and books that were neatly placed under the coffee table. She would tear it, licked it and put into her curious mouth to taste, each time we tidied up, it would messed again in lest than 5 minutes.

Such an active girl, if you don't have the stamina, its very difficult keep up with her. You have to chase and stop her from running and climbing up to whatever thing that she could reach. She would not slow down to rest even awhile, the time that she is not active is during her nap and sleeping time, but nevertheless, she is a good girl, she seldom cry and fuss. She is just too curious of everything and anything .... other than this, she was busy looking for some snacks and very clingy to me and her kakak, always wanting us to carry her, however she tried very hard not to bother me too when I was sleeping (pretending), she'll peeped at me and 'sayang' me. It was very comforting knowing that she cared for me too.

Another trip....

August has been a busy month for us, we have plans and trips almost every weekend and yup, we have another trip this week, we'll be off to Genting tonight for Merdeka's countdown, hopefully there will be a countdown, I remember years ago, we went up the hill with my boyfriend (now hubby) and my sister during Merdeka eve. We had so much fun there. This time we'll be going with my parents, and some closest friends, but without my sister who is in LA now, sorry Sharon...we go without you and do you still remember our old place? *wink wink* Haha, don't worry if we lose, we share, if we wins that's all mine ... wahahaha

Before I forget, I wanna wish all Malaysian a very ......




Let us all shout out "MERDEKA! MERDEKA! MERDEKA!!!!!"

Photoblog

26/8/07 at The Palace Beach & Spa



Initially you were very uncomfortable with the beach, you just sit still and dare not move from your place, mummy wanted to make you walk, but you just refused. Mummy tried to get rid of your fear by splashing some water to you, you laughed and turned away from us. However, after a while you started to feel more comfortable and you touched the water.



You begin to splash some water and scoop it with your hands, kicking the water and tried to step on the waves that is approaching you. Occasionally, you'll scooped some sand to put into your mouth to taste, so yucky, mummy tried to stop you but were too slow and it was very difficult to dig out the sand from your mouth. You did it a few times and mummy gave up, mummy let you explore yourself and you'd finally realized that the sand are not meant to be eaten.... You're just too curious babe.

Mummy could see you enjoy yourself so much so that you do not want to get out from the water, so mummy thought of teaching you how to swim, however you were not that brave, you screamed and almost look like crying, ok next time perhaps.



The sun is getting hotter, mummy carried you back to the shore, you cheeky girl refused to let me carry and you wanna walk by yourself, so mummy put you down, you walked very carefully and gave some nice posing so mummy could snap some of your photos.

Family trip again...

Haha, very soon after the Bukit Tinggi trip, we'll be off to the Palace Beach and Spa at Seri Kembangan today. There is a man-made beach and yes I'll be taking Claudia for a nice dip into the water.

*whisper and blushing* This is my 1st family trip without the maid but.... with a few of my closest friends... haha still not too bad, at least I have a few more helpers to handle this little rascal..... Sure no problem la... she is actually not that hard to handle and she can behave very well too, it's only that she is too active and me getting older, so its hard for me to chase her.

This time I would not miss out any opportunity to capture all the nice scenery pictures and more pictures on Claudia, cause I need to pick a few of her latest natural pictures for her year end contest.

I wish that this trip would be a pleasant trip .... and most importantly, Claudia will enjoy herself.

I still can't believe

I can't believe she is such a big girl already. Sometimes, I can't help feeling amazed when I look at her, she is so grown up, so matured looking and showing so much signs of how she understands us and having so much expression and preferences of her own.... I still can't believe, I still feel like I gave birth to her just yesterday....

Today, after dressing up from a good shower, she looked at me and said "nai nai or" (nice nice hor) by showing her shirt to me. This is the word that we always tell her after she had her shower and sometime back when I was still sleeping she suddenly yell out "wake up" to me, this is what I always say to her when she was sleeping and I wanted to wake her up. There are also a few actions that she imitate from us like taking our handphone and start to press the number and put it to her ear while walking and start to mumble and nodding her head, as if she was talking to someone .... When she was a baby, we always play our famous game "peek-a-boo", now that she is the one who starts 1st, tapping on our back and turn her face to face us and said "cak-cak"

She is certainly a fast learner, we only need to show/teach her once or a few times, then she starts to imitate.

..... and suddenly I realized that this little girl of mine, is not little anymore. I really miss those days when she was just a tiny adorable baby who sleep most of time but now .....

Life is beautiful when...

.... you were greeted by a lovely smile everyday in the morning

life is beautiful knowing that you don't have to go to work and spending time with your little girl on Saturdays and Sundays

life is beautiful when after you come back from work, your little girl starts running toward you and cuddle you ...

life is beautiful knowing your child sleeping soundly besides you

life is beautiful when you are unwell but your little girl look sad and cuddle you tightly

life is beautiful when she kisses you everytime you asked from her

life is beautiful when you saw her running and enjoying herself

life is beautiful when she has been calling you mama, mami for fun

life is beautiful knowing that she has been learning and picking up fast

Life is beautiful when she only wants you and only alone and no one else beside you

life is beautiful when you know you are important to her

life is even more beautiful when you know that she loves you too

Life is so much beautiful with you around and I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

There's something different about you...

Haven't you guys noticed, there's something different about my girl lately? Nope? Well I'll tell you, she just had her hair cut last Friday (17/8/07). This is her 4th hair cut since birth. Her por-por took her to cut after much of a complaints from me everyday for more than 2 weeks, because it was too long and disturbing her view. I feel very uneasy for her, but we only cut her on the fringe.

After the hair cutting session, I must confess, she look a bit weird, hahaha, no cut complaint, after cut also complaint, what I want actually?? My mum said cut very little only ... but it really looks funny on her. Now when we tied her hair up, she look like this......


Very funny right? See, she don't like it as well ... Can't even tie her hair up, hmmm... regret already, aiyah!

She loves her new chair

Last Saturday, we went to Tesco for some groceries. We bought a mini chair/sofa for my little princess because we do not want her to climb on the sofa, afraid she might fall (anyway, its already happened on Sunday). She loves it so much, whenever she wants to sit, she'll go and jump on the mini sofa and will lean on it, as if she is really enjoying and relaxing herself.





I love it too because it will ease the pain on my shoulder and my tight whenever we need to feed Claudia with milk, yes, she is still very lazy holding her own bottle and prefer being fed by us. What a shame huh?

We also bought an electronic lantern with "twinkle, twinkle little star" for her since Mid-Autumn festival is just around the corner. Last year she was still a baby and I hope this year she'll have a bit of fun playing and celebrating this festival.

The teacher

Yup, let me introduce you my new teacher at home, she is none other than Ms Claudia Teng. Every night, she would offer free tuition class for her student (obviously it's me or my maid) when her student is free after shower and meal and ready for her favourite show on astro and time for relaxing.... but Ms Claudia said no, it's time for class and no entertainment without her permission, Ms Claudia would go to the coffee table and take her favourite book tittled "My Little Word Book"



She would sit in front of her student, start flipping the page and pointing on the object from the book then, look straight to her face expected for an answer, her student would need to answer her, if she named it correctly she would reward her with her sweetest smile and start flipping from page to page and continue questioning, failing which, she would frown and look angrily at her student, if she student refused to answer Ms Claudia, she would closed the book and walked away from her. Very garang ho this teacher.

Whose fault? Your Fault? My fault? TV fault? Stool fault?

I was not feeling well on Sunday, headache and tired probably lacking of sleep, so I asked my maid to massage my head. There I was laying on the floor, enjoying the massage and Ms Claudia started to kacau me by stepping and climbing on my body, touching my eyes, pull my lips, and nose and kicking as well, poor me ... but what I worried most was, she may trip and fall down .... but her daddy was too engrossed watching football and didn't bother to take care of his lil' girl....

I had enough and asked hubby to carry her away and to look after her. Actually, I was really angry at him but I didn't show him, I dislike to hear the noisy sound from tv especially when I had headache, but I decided to keep quiet and be patient, let him watch his favourite once awhile, I think, but please be more sensitive to the surrounding la offer to help to look after Claudia la, especially you knew your wife was not feeling well, but you didn't! OK fine, you carried her away and I was pleased with it... so the massage continued ...

Suddenly, my maid shouted and I was shocked, I opened my eyes, and saw Claudia falling from the sofa, head down the floor!! Apparently, after hubby carried her away from me, he put her on a sofa beside him and continue with his football, this rascal stood up and saw my handphone and pretending to walk while talking on the phone, she looked down and loose balance and fell.

I was the 1st tO reached and carried her while her dad was only starting to run to her. OMG!! I was furious and start screaming at him. "I told you to look after her, how can you let her fall? What are you doing? See, what have you done?" I screamed, and he yelled back at me too. "Oh now you blame me? I was watching my tv, I also didn't want this to happen, why you took the stool away from here? if not, she won't fall so hard" (for your info, the stool are not supposed to be in there and never, should never to be in that place, ok) "So now you are blaming me for that? Your tv is greater than your daughter la? So my fault? The stool is not suppose to be there! Its your fault to cause this fall and you're blaming me? I was really sick, asked you to take care of her and now this is what she (Claudia) get? You're just hopeless, yeah, it's my fault of asking your help, I shouldn't" This went on quite a bit.**very angry and I kept pushing him away from touching Claudia. I don't want him to touch Claudia ** I also off the tv straight away.

(Back to the story) Claudia cried and cried and cried non-stop, must be a great pain, can visibly see her bump almost immediately. I tried to rub her forehead but she refused and cried again (luckily it was on the forehead and not any part of the head, I guess you know what I mean). I have no choice but to wait till she's asleep, then I'll massage her again. When to the kitchen and boiled an egg so I can rub on her later, hopefully the swell will reduced. I was scared that she might feel dizzy or vomit or even faint ... kept asking her questions and was relieve she was able to answer me and tell me where was the pain and so on ....

I put her in the swing and waited till she fell asleep, but she didn't let anyone to touch her head even when she has fallen asleep by putting a pillow and hand on her head, tried to touch her head, but she cried and turn her body away... waited till she was in deep sleep, and later she was snoring away. I carried her and began to rub her head with egg, Uhhh, still swell, my heart broke and I almost wanna cry, darling, mummy really sorry. I promise this would not happen again, ya. I would not let daddy look after you when I know he really can't and engross with his stupid idiot box!


Can you spot her bump?

I couldn't sleep well that night as I was constantly checking her, making sure she that she is alright and rubbing her head with some medicated oil. Luckily she still sleep well although she had some nightmares. The next morning, Oh thank God, she was all smiley face and back to her normal self, but I can't be normal (fuming still) when I think what had happened and I have not really spoken to hubby. DON"T touch me, don't talk to me!! I'M STILL ON FIRE.

Could you please tell, whose fault was that?

At 14 months and 22 days her language development is at 22 months, I hope this is accurate. Anyway, I took this for fun only and no harm trying.. **grin** Try this for fun at LENA.
