I'm ONE!

I am officially a toddler! My mommy and daddy still call me "baby"... because old habits die hard ^^



We arrived at Aloha Changi chalet last Sunday for my party. Being surrounded by many colourful balloons, I was too excited to nap. When the party's about to start, my eyes started to feel heavy. Sleepy bugs kept cooing to me and I refused to smile for cameras, much to mommy's annoyance. Immediately after my birthday song, I drifted into dreamland...












Thank you everyone for coming to my birthday party. Thank you for my lovely presents and 'ang baos'. Most importantly, a big thank you for finding time from your busy schedule and making my 1st birthday so memorable (^-^)

My Milestones

I am turning one next month and I so look forward to my birthday party. During the year, I was busy learning skills like playing, walking, eating and talking. They are not easy to master, but I will persist to perfect them and to learn new ones too. 

为我加油吧 (^-^)v




My first tooth arrived when I was about four months old. Being first time parents, mommy and daddy failed to recognise the signs of teething. They stayed up nights trying to console a very cranky me. When I smiled at mommy three weeks later, she was stunned to see two little white edges on my bottom gum surface. 




I was introduced to baby rice cereal on 5 April 2007.  I loved the taste and soon, I was enjoying mashed fruits, pureed vegetables and baby snacks. To encourage me to eat healthy, mommy never add salt, sugar or sauces in my food. However, this Eat-Healthy rule do not apply when we are dining out.  Yummy...



On 2 August 2007, I pulled myself up to a standing position while holding onto the side of my cot. About one month later, I started to cruise from one piece of furniture to the next for support. I can take shaky steps when held in a walking position. I can't wait to play 'Catch' with Kai Kai kor kor.

   
 

I have been babbling and am able to repeat sounds like 'baba', 'mama' and 'kaka'. One night, daddy stepped out of our bedroom to get my milk, but I thought he was going 'gai gai' without me.  In my anxiety I called out: "BA BA". The next moment, my thrilled mommy was hugging and kissing me and told me that I am a clever boy (^-^) 


There are so many happening places to explore and so many exciting things to discover... Everyday is an adventure, what a fun world to be in!
