Rock-a-Bye Baby

My mum is a typical grandmother...

When Ace was born, she advised me to NEVER rock Ace to sleep.. if not I would have a hard time getting him to sleep without rocking him in future...

But leh, she rocks Ace to sleep every time Ace goes over to her house and EVERYDAY whenever she comes over to MY HOUSE.. "Grandmothers are all like that..." says my friend when I told her about Waipo.. "My mum is like tat too.."

And so, this is how and why Ace refuses to sleep unless he is rocked to sleep.. sigh....

Today, Ace woke up bright and early in the morning at 8am and started to talk, jump, crawl and roll around bed.

By 10.30am, half his battery was gone... and by 11, he was almost gone...

He was lying in in playpen... feeling bored.. and his eyes were half closed... I ignored him and after a while when I looked at him, he was still in the same pose.. so I decided to shift him to a more comfortable position and pat him a little and help him to sleep.. alas, the moment i shifted him, he became wide awake again...

So I ignored him again.. and slowly he reclined back into his playpen mattress... alas after half an hour, he still refused to sleep... I tot the nursery rhymes I was playing may have been disturbing him and so I turned it off... and he started to stand up and make lots of noise..

At last resort, I picked him up and ROCKED him.. and 3 seconds later, he is asleep!

Ace is 11.3kg now.. I dunno how long more can I rock him even though my biceps are getting bigger and bigger and stronger and stronger because of my precious son.. hiaks...

Paper Monster is now Plastic Bag Monster

A few days ago, I blogged about how Ace ate paper up like Cookie Monster in Sesame Street...

Today, my Paper Monster has graduated to become a Plastic Bag Monster.. SIGH....

The words "LUXURY BATH" probably bring up a picture of lingering baths in warm water in a bathtub in a spa somewhere in Thailand... you smell the fresh aroma of various essential oils.... you lie down and listen to the sound of birds chirping, the wind blowing and the sound of water flowing.... trickle trickle trickle...

To me, a LUXURY BATH would just be a normal one where I dun have to rush through shampooing my hair... where I have time to carefully clean myself... cos since Ace was born, I havent had much of a chance to bath slowly like in the past.

Nowadays, bathtimes are just a matter of pouring water over yourself, soaping and pouring more water over yourself.. rush rush rush to put on clothes and go back to Ace.

On good days, I get to bath a little longer while Ace is asleep or playing in the playpen. But sometimes, he refuses to play by himself and I am left with no choice but putting him either in his cot so tat I can bath in the masterbedroom toilet with the door half opened so tat I can:

Pour water... Peep through the door, wave and smile to Ace and say, "Look, Mummy is here!!" and try to finish my bath within the record time of like 2 minutes cos I am afraid he will climb out of his cot...

Alternatively, I put him in his highchair and left him outside the toilet while I bath with the door slightly opened so that I get to keep an eye on him. He gets bored quite fast so I have to hurry through this one as well.

Yesterday was one such day where Ace was happily seated on his highchair outside the toilet... and then I undressed and started to pour water over my hair.. and Ace started his stunt of pulling the plastic bags out of the plastic bag holder, which was unfortunately within his reach.

"Bah, i can pick those up and put them bag, just let him be bah.. since it keeps him entertained..." I was thinking to myself.. and so I continued to shampoo my hair..

And then just as my hair is full of bubbles and I wanted to show him the bubbles, to my horror, I saw my son picking out at SEVEN ELEVEN PLASTIC BAG, open his mouth, put it in, bite hard and pull the plastic bag away and chew the little piece tat is left in his MOUTH!!!!!

God! Paper I can tahan cos in case I cannot take it.. paper is just tree bark.. so to me paper is like vege... but plastic bag leh, wat if he chokes and dies?

But my head is full of shampoo and I am in my birthday suit and I can't rush out like tat can I? I was at loss wat to do... and was just stunned...

Thankfully, I recovered my wits fast.. i quickly rinsed my hair and put on my dirty clothes and then I tried to pry open his mouth to dig out the plastic...

But the harder I tried to pry open his mouth, the harder he tried to keep it closed...

I took biscuits out from the fridge and used it as bait to make him open his mouth.. he fell for it and opened his mouth but once my finger went in, he closed it tight again...

He continued to chew it and seemed to be choking as he was coughing...

I was at my wit's end....

And finally.. DING DING.. I remembered Jez Mama telling me, "If you want children to open their mouths, just PRESS their noses together..."

And that was wat I did...

I finally managed to dig out that piece of plastic...

PHEW.. I was so relieved and yet so angry at the same time... I scolded him and his him on his hands and he just shook his head and made some unhappy noises...

But all is well finally when I fed him more biscuits and gave him a drink of water...

Sigh...

So I went back to finish my bath...

So much for LUXURY BATH....

PS: Daddy and Me going Hwa Hin in June for holiday.. and ACE.. is NOT coming along.. hahahah.. yeah yeah yeah.. LUXURY BATHS, FULL NIGHTS' SLEEP, here i come!!!

Paper Monster

Have you ever watched Sesame Street?

If you havent and ain't working, you really ought to watch it at 12.30pm everyday.. i watch together with Ace and find it really quite amusing..

There is a character in Sesame Street called Cookie Monster who is all blue and loves to eat cookies.. whenever he sees cookies, he will bite them into pieces... cos he just come help it and cos, "Me loves... COOKIES!!!!"

Well, dunno is it because Ace is watching Cookie Monster or because he is teething again (his teeth on the upper side are coming out as well...) he is turning into a paper monster and I really dun dare to pass him any paper now..

That day, he ate two pieces of paper in a row!

In the morning, Ace was playing with this paper envelope happily because it has alot of sound. Since he has been playing with the same envelope for the past few days, I did not really pay much attention to it... suddenly, when I was talking to Daddy over the phone, i saw him bite off a piece of the envelope. I immediately hung up and asked him to spit it out but the more i tried ot open his mouth, the tighter he tried to close it... sigh.. and so.. he swallowed it..

I was very angry with him and so I scolded him and put him in the playpen and left him alone as punishment after I told him why he should not bite off paper and swallow it...

Apparently, he didn't really understand any of it...

Cos later in the day, he picked up another piece of paper and bite off one corner of it again!

So angry with him... Told Waipo and Waipo told him that only kar chua (Cockroaches) eat paper.. "Are you a kar chua?" she asked him.. I am wondering if cockraoches are called Kar chua in hokkien because they eat paper cos if you translate literally, it does mean "EAT PAPER"..

When I told his ganma Seok Ling, she asked me if Ace ate up 2A4 pieces of paper...

I think if he did that, I am going to erupt like a volcano man...

Ace Chua, Advertisement Star

Dreamboards do come true!

Well, someone asked me if what I posted about How To Give Birth To A Cute Baby really works...

"Really meh? Put cute baby pictures will have cute baby liao ah.. so easy meh?"

Hahaha... I am a hard core believer of tat lor..

And here's the PROOF!! See how similar my baby and poster baby look like??!!:P

PS: Sorry for the lack of updates, was bz watching Da Chang Jin together with Ace.. hahahahaha... today, Max joined in and cried like 4 times! What a SNAG ;)

Adventures of Ace in Nai Nai's Kitchen

Cough! Cough!

2 Saturdays ago, we were having lunch when we suddenly recieved a sms from Jez Ah Ma telling us that one of our fav vegeterian stalls, Yuan Xiang, has opened a branch in Changi...

We replied to tell them that we were eating atGeylang and about a minute later, we saw their Mercedes E200 peeping out from the corner... and so we had lunch together...

During the meal, their younger daughter, Oracle, was asking for green tea and when she did not get it, she started to cough... "That's her signal that she wants tea.." Richie Ah ye told me... "Nowadays the kids.. sigh.. they are good I tell you..."

I tot that Oracle was very clever too....

But then I discovered that Chang Jiang Hou Lang Tui Qian Lang...While Oracle is 3.5 years old.. Ace can already do that when he is barely one years old!!

Yday me and Daddy and Ah Yee went for a late dinner at circuit road and we were sitting at this table belonging to the coffee stall so aunty said we must order from her. We ordered a home cooked barley water and then proceeded to feed Ace a little of it.

Then we started talking amongst ourselves and then when Ace wanted the barley water, he would make noise and cry.... when we ignored him, he started to COUGH! When we continued to ignore him, he continue to pretend to cough!

You could tell he is pretending cos he opened his mouth and forced himself to make that coughing sound! Oh my gosh! My son is less than a year old and can pretend to cough to get his drink?!

i dunno whether to luff or cry... Like Ace's picture... 真的是伤脑筋啊！

Rejection

I am in the business of rejection. In my line, not everyone wants to help themselves. Not everyone likes or trusts you enough to want you to help them and as a result, we get REJECTED. And boy, it can get painful.. especially if you get rejected straight in the face like 10 times consecutively...

Rejection is hard to take whether you are a newbie or a lao jiao in business. But over time, I have learnt to see it as a fact of life that happens we like it or not. Even world class top sales gets rejected and they were rejected by more people than I ever was.. and that is how they become top sales....

While it is one thing to get over being rejected 10 times consecutively (Yes, that's my personal record.. hahah.. I started out being lousy too..), it is quite another to be REJECTED by Ace. And that's because Ace is MY son...

Waigong has gone away after taking his progress package... For those who dunno.. i am a very lucky stay at home mum... tat's cos I have loving parents who cook lunch for me and Ace and bring it over (See, tat's the benefit of staying close to your parents)...

Waigong recieved his progress package and left for a tour to BK.. and thus, I am left with the task of cooking for Ace for a few days.

The last time Waigong went on a tour to genting, I had to cook for 2 days. Ace refused to eat my food and cried and cried... using double the time I usually use to feed him, he only finished half of his usual share.. I was a little upset cos it seems as if my food tastes really bad.

This time round, I am determined to do well and so I put corn, red dates, wolfberries, cashew nuts and carrot into the porridge I am cooking. It smelt so sweet and tasted very sweet as well...

Alas, Ace just cried and cried and refused to eat! I was so angry that he rejected my food. My cooking is that bad meh? But at least it is my effort mah.

I was thinking, "I work so hard to keep you happy, sacrifice my svelt body shape to continue breastfeeding you and the least you can do is to appreciate my efforts mah!"

So angry I was that I called Max to complain to him.

Day two, I decided to change menu and cooked potatoe, carrot and broccoli... he took t0 that much better and finished all his food but while I usually only take 20 min to feed him... meal times were a one hour affair..

I guess I was angry cos his rejection made it seem like Ace loved me lesser... but I guess i should take things in stride.. at least he ATE the food...

Anywayz, i have discovered the source of the problem. It seems that Ace does not like food if it is not grinded into pulp. Nope, cutting it into small pieces is not enjoyable for him at all because Waipo grinded his lunch today and he finished it real fast.... but dinner she did not and he took his own sweet time to eat...

And I discovered that Ace did appreciate my cooking and hard work and that his infinite love for me is still there. Cos he shit corn... whole bits of corn in his shit and it is 2 days since I cooked the corn porridge.

Sigh.. he must have felt uncomfortable that he had to swallow the corn WHOLE.. not to mention how uncomfortable it must be for him to shit it out... yes, he cried.. but he still continued to eat and he continues to kiss me, hug me and love me and not hate me despite the pain I put him through...

Sorry Ace.. mummy will learn to cook nicer food and will grind it before I feed it to you.. ok? ;) *kiss kiss*

Passing On

A sweet angel I know has passed on....

She is a really nice and caring person and very motherly too.... she is generous and kind and cheerful, healthy-looking too... And I still have no news of why she passed away cos she is overseas...

I think her son is only about my age or just about a year younger than me... Just woke up in daze and recieved the news from Jez Mama...

I was shocked for a moment.... And I feel sad.....

I wondered how I must feel if I were her daughter.. gee, I would be really upset..

There's a chinese saying, "事事难预料" (It's difficult to predict things...) and true enough, it is really difficult to predict when we will leave the world.. no matter how well-prepared you are, sometimes you leave whether you like it or not.. tat is why it is important to cherish the people around you... especially people like your parents, your friends...

Well Ace, if Mummy ever passes on... you just have to know that mummy loves you and daddy most in the world... ok? *BEAR HUGZ* You must be strong and stay happy and cheerful and lead a meaningful life... help more people and take care of the rest of the family on our behalf..

Dun Make Use Of My Son

Ace is a cute baby.

Lots of people want to leverage on him.

Whenever I bring Ace to office, there are always nice people who want to carry him cos they think he is cute and cos they really love him... but my radars are up whenever there are people who want to carry him cos 'he is a cute hunza baby... son of Most beautiful mum-to-be 2005"...

Yes, I shamelessly make Ace pose for my Fibre Plus cos I think he makes good mascot for my biz :) But he is MY SON! I can do watever I like with him or to him...

Call me a snob for practising double standards... but I draw a line at letting other people MAKE USE OF HIM.

I was just wondering to myself the other day why I allow Ace to be carried by some pple but not others.. there is this particular group I ALWAYS SIAM when I see them and will hold on tightly to Ace whenever I see them..

I wondered why I felt so protective over Ace when I see them and dun do tat to other pple... and suddenly, it hit me! Wanting to verify my gut feel, I asked Daddy if he knew the reason I shun and dislike those people (I was specifically mentioning someone.. but i shant say who..hahaha) and before I could finish my sentence, Daddy said without thinking, "cos they were making use of Ace!"

Yes, these bad pple were making use of baby Ace! I hate it when they whip out their cameras and try to hold him to take pictures... My son is not animal from the zoo okay.... dun come and pretend to play with him and say he is cute just because you want to make use of his pictures to say "Oh, taking HUNZA pdts will give you cute babies like this..."

Those who outright come to me and ask me if they can take pic of him for testimonials, i still not so angry.. is the pretend pretend kind one I very angry at... How come you dun play with my son when your associates are not around and you have no one to rave about Ace to???

I use instinct and heart one ok.. one look I can tell who are genuinely nice to my son and who are not. He also can tell.. just see who he likes to carry him and who he smiles at you know...

And please hor.. he is my son.. i can paste his pics all over the blog and shout, "SEE, I TOOK HUNZA PDTS, SO MY SON SO HEALTHY AND CUTE.." but you cannot okie.. cos it is MY SON.. you so kiang you go and give birth to YOUR OWN okie...

It's just like when I was in primary 5, I had a friend.. and I one day complained about my sister to her... she listened and sympathized with me for having a barbaric sister who bites me... but leh, the next day, after visiting my house, she started criticizing my sister and said some nasty things about her.. i stopped talking to this friend for one week...

She is my sister lor.. i can complain about her... but you CAN'T.. wanna complain, go complain about your own sister... was my logic...

When I got older, i learnt that this is called double standards... but well, I think I am entitled to it cos it's my life, my family and my attitude.. no one else has the right to interfere :) Hee..

Anywayz, if you happen to be carrying Ace and XXX comes to you and say, "So cute.. and brings all his/her assoc.." pls hold on to my baby tightly and dun let them take him away to take pics.. or carry for fun laughter and entertainment... protect Ace at all cost please! Dun let them make use of my son... (Especially Ah Yee and Ganma Seok Ling.. you all must help me hor!! Dun need to ask WHO.. you will know cos you can FEEL it one...)

PS: I told Daddy about story of me and my pri school fren.. daddy says i should have beaten her till she land in hospital.. hahahah.. some good example we leave for Ace.. well Ace, if you are reading this when you grow older.. Daddy's kidding okie.. violence doesnt solve matters.. and my boy, do continue to use your heart to feel for people who are sincere to you..

Ace's and Waden's First Movie

Zillion thanks to Aunty Christine tat Ace gets to watch his first movie in the movie theatre...

Nice Christine had a family day organized by her company... and she bought tickets and invited me, Daddy and Ace to watch THE WILD with her family in Eng Wah cinema..

"It will be a good chance to expose the babies to the theatres.." she said.. and good for Waden and Ace to meet up again too.. too bad they can't speak to each other yet...

Well, it was not easy to get there at all as it was a bad taxi day for mummy and Ace. Daddy had an appt in suntec in the morning and so mummy and Ace had to make their way there themselves. They waited by the roadside (11.5kg Ace in mummy's arms) for 30 min and there was not a single cab who would stop to pick them up. When one finally did stop, uncle said, "Sorry, I dun go to town.." siao.. then drive taxi for wat right??? grrr... so mummy had to carry Ace and wait for 10 more minutes before she managed to flag down a London cab... sigh...

Good Christine mummy came all well prepared for the day... she brought raisins (in case he is hungry), milk(in case he is hungry), water(in case he is thirsty), blankets(in case he is cold), toys(in case he is bored), pram(in case he needs to lie somewhere)..

Comparatively, Angel mummy is a lousy mummy.. she brought Ace, herself, raisins and well.. tat's all.. hahaha.. cos her theory is.. if Ace is grumpy.. there is always the raisins and the breasts... if he is thirsty, he can drink breast milk also.. if he is cold, mummy can put her arms around him cos she already make him wear three quarter pants and socks... if he is bored, he can drink breast milk also.. hahaha... so when she saw how well prepared Christine Mummy is... she feels really guilty for how little she has prepared...

It is funny to see how two sets of parents treat their kids so differently... though they both love thier babies alot.. hehhee...

Christine mummy also did not allow Waden to go onto the floor.. but Angel Mummy and Max Daddy just let Ace crawl all over the floor even though it is dirty cos nowadays he is at this exploring age and likes to crawl all over the place.. we just let him be... our theory is tat he can take care of himself and should be left free to explore (our office has turned into a huge playground to him now).. just gotto wipe his hands later and make sure he dun put into his mouth...

When Ace makes lots of noise when he sees us eat, bad and lazy Angel mummy gave him some crumbs from her fruit tart because Ace always wants to be eating together with her and Daddy and she doesnt mind letting Ace try out different foods.. well, in addition, feeding him seemed like the fastest way to shut him up sometimes also.. but good Christine mummy is stricter to waden and would not allow him to eat rubbish for good of his health...

Actually, I just realised we are quite relaxed with Ace and pretty much let him do what he wants. Dunno whether will spoil him or not.. but i like to think that this will allow him to have character of his own and not just follow wat we say... YOU XING GE LEH....

Anywayz, ok lah.. I guess Angel mummy is just a DIFFERENT mummy.. not a BAD mummy... all parents are different mah.. and anywayz, Ace is her kid.. she can treat him anyhow she wants to and anyway she thinks right ;)

Anywayz, the two babies are cute.. they watched intently for like 1 min.. and then started to be restless.. and then midway started to want milk and after milk fell asleep and only woke up when the movie ended.. hahahahah ;)

Christine mummy even best, can make formula milk in semi darkness in the cinema.. really salute her ;)

I think we will wait awhile before we bring Ace to the movies again.. prefer to go alone with Daddy so tat can lovey dovey.. hee hee ;)

As for the movie.. erm.. it is very much like magadescar leh.. just tat the new chant is, "You're so cuddely, we love you..." instead of "you've got to move it move it.." so if you have watched the former, you can probably skip it unless you've got kids..

Happy Mothers' Day!

Happy MotherS' Day to Waipo and Nainai and Happy mothers' day to me!:)

Last year, I still couldnt really feel like a mother since Ace was in my tummy but this year, things are different... this year... my son is out and I have to really do mummy things like cook, wash his shit, wake in the middle of nite to feed him, take care of him when he is sick.. play with him and discipline him...


Well, we had an early mothers' day celebration yday when me and daddy brought ace shopping... had a mocha indulgence and as a result, couldnt sleep last night till 4am in the morning.. sigh....

Anywayz, while I was awake, I was thinking alot of mummy thoughts... I was running through how it has already been quite a while since Ace was born.. and how sometimes i still cannot believe that I am a mummy...

When I cuddle my son and smell the shampoo from his hair erm… I mean head... I just cannot believe this cute little thing is mine and that he came out from my belly and now can breathe and have a life of his own...

I can't believe that my FETUS.. has become a baby.. and recently, many people have told me, that this baby has become a little boy.. geez, I think in the blinking of an eye, he will soon be a big boy, a teenage boy, a little man and a manly man like his daddy! That's fast manz...

Then I was also thinking about wat will happen if i were to go back to work.. who will take care of Ace, who can take care of Ace, will he miss me, will he love me as much, will i miss him, will i miss watching him grow up....

Well, din get to think too far when my little boy woke up and searched for milk... hahahaha..

Anywayz, Daddy says he will teach Ace to celebrate Mother's Day and show him how to make me happy on Mothers' day.... hehehehe.... :P cant wait for when Ace grows up and can speak and tell me, "Mummy, Happy Mothers Day.. I love you!!!"

PS: Must take note to say tat more to my own mum...

Mummy, I love you!

Botak Ace Again

We shaved Ace's head again.

Daddy has been complaining that Ace's hair is too long and kept saying that we should shave his head again. But i tot the poor boy only grew so little hair in 6 months that it might be better to leave it as it is..

Alas, last weekend we were watching THE WILD together with Christine, Bernard and Waden... and when Daddy saw baby Waden (who is like 2 or 3 days younger than Ace) with his spikey hair do.. he says it is very nice and became even more determined to shave Ace.

So since Daddy is free today.. he decided to just do it :) And he is very pleased with the results cos he says it makes Ace look even MORE like him.. hahaha ;)

PS: Waipo, Yeye and Nainai think other wise. They think Ace looks nicer with hair and reserves the right to have hair on his head on his first birthday.. hahaha..

But wat does Ace think??? Well... wat do you think? hahaha...

Ace Signs Successfully!

As you already know, I have been teaching Ace some sign language for a while.. but he would do the signs now and then.. or when he is being shown some reward (EG, Milk, Food..)

Never have I seen him do the sign on his own to indicate something.

But today, finally I confirm that he truly understands the signs that I am teaching him!

Today, I left Ace with Waipo and was out the whole day.... Thus since this morn 10am, Ace did not have any milk at all.. all the way till 10pm at night... He was just fed his usual porridge for lunch and dinner and the rest of the time, he was just happily sleeping away...

When Ah Yee asked him if he wanted milk, he just put his head against Ah Yee's breasts.... so Waipo went to make him milk.. and when the milk was made and Waipo took the milk out and put it in front of him, Ace started to clap his hands the do the sign for milk! :)

So clever right???!!!

I love my clever son!!! ;) *muaks*

How to give birth to a cute baby

Because Ace is very cute... many people has asked me this question.. "How do I give birth to a cute baby like yours????"

Well, I guess I will openly share my 'secret' in my blog now.. hahaha.. are you ready to take notes??:P Hiaks...

Step 1: Make yourself 'cute'
Firstly, in order to have a cute baby... the baby should also have like cute genes... babies are cute not just because they are good-looking.. also because they have a sunny deposition or have a smiley face.. so in order to have a cute baby... one must start from yourself..

PS: If you are unhappy, go and attend SCS.
If you are unhappy with the way you look, get a consultation from me. (I can help you become slimmer, fatter, have better skin, etc) Just email me at verityy@yahoo.com

Step 2: Get a 'cute' husband
Genes does play the role in whether your baby is good looking. Also, a baby's surrounding is very important. If you have a husband who is not happy or is always angry, etc.. your baby will tend to learn from Daddy and it would be difficult for your baby to be smiley. So very important to find a GOOD husband... Someone with good health is important too because a healthy baby is a happy baby and a cute baby!

PS: If you want more info on how to find a handsome, cute, happy, good man who loves you and baby alot to spend the rest of your life with, email me at verityy@yahoo.com. I also offer consultation for that.. 3 successful cases of consultation so far okie!!:P

Step 3: Get married and get pregnant
This one I dun think I need to elaborate rite??:P

PS: Want to look radiant as a bride and need moolah to get married? Email me at verityy@yahoo.com

Step 4: When pregnant, put up dream boards and use positive affirmations
Well, when I was pregnant, Megan bought me many cute baby pictures which I looked at everyday. I also put up Daddy's cute baby pics (which explains why Ace looks so much like Max when he was young).

I also positively affirmed Ace everyday and told him that he is a handsome baby.. and that he will have double eye lids.. have large eyes.. sharp nose... sexy mouth... long legs... be tall.. slim and sexy...

Take good care of yourself to ensure that both yourself and baby are healthy
Learn how to do all of the above in SCS. For more info, email me at verityy@yahoo.com

Step 5: Deliver the baby and surround him with lots of love, care and continue to affirm that he is a cute baby and that everyone loves him.

There, not that difficult right?

PS: For all those who read the fine print and think I am shamelessly promoting my services.. my point is just tat i walk the talk.. hehehe ;) As a life improvement specialist, I really am able to help you in all areas of your life.. hahah ;) all you need to do is just ASK.. hahahahah... remember... verityy@yahoo.com.. HAHAHAHA ;)

Ace Goes Bowling With Dreams Inc

Ace, Hole Digger

Maybe Ace can become a gold digger when he is all grown up...

Recently, he has been very fascinated with HOLES...

When he sits on his chair, he would bend downwards to try to look at the hole underneath... when he is playing in the living room, he will crawl towards the sofa, peer underneath the sofa and try to reach for things underneath and sometimes, he even tries to hide things in the hole!

When he is at Waipo's house, he will look for holes on the floor and try to dig it with his little fingers...

But his most AMAZING stunt has to be wat took place the other day...

See that hole there?

Ace did that.... sigh...

He was happily sitting in his high chair and watching Your Baby Can Read VCD... I was packing my stuff to get ready to go out and I would sit beside him now and then to talk to him. I was wondering why all of a sudden, there are alot of fluffy white stuff on his shirt and on my pants... but i never noticed it still...

Then Daddy came home and Daddy looked at the floor under his chair and asked me.. what's that?

Tat was all the gel like things from his pampers.. you know.. those things they used to absorb water??? He had apparently dug a hole using his fingers in his diapers and all the filling fell out!

EEEEk.. disgusting!

I really buay tahan my son... sigh.. wat will he be up to next I wonder...

My Favourite Ah Yee

Clari Peng is my favourite Ah Yee... rightly so too since I only have one Ah Yee.. hiaks...

Recently, there has been alot of comments on my blog about my Ah Yee with regards to her before and after picture...

It's strange tat since mummy started the blog.. only people who bother to post messages are people she know well... and all of a sudden, when someone starts saying something nasty or negative, everyone else join in.. and all are people who never comment before one...

Dun people read How To Win Friends And Influence People? Can't they also say tat my Ah Yee is pretty... or tat she got nicer hair style... or that she loves me alot??? Only one person said Ah Yee's good things... the others only bother to say she look old lah.. wat lah..

Wei, my ah yee also read this blog one leh... think of how she must feel lah.. anywayz, you all never meet her in person.. just look at picture and comment also not fair mah...

Anywayz, Ah Yee.. no matter wat others say.. you are them Ah Yee I love most!! And anywayz, I think you are pretty and sexy! :) Mummy and Daddy thinks so too.. especially now tat you fu shi already... your face color and skin looks so much better than before! :) Jia you orh!

Love you deep deep,
Ace

Jez Ah Ma says that babies usually can't be potty trained by their care-taker... cos they will try all the stunts they know and you will give in to them..

Maybe this explains why Ace baby is like tat...

Car Seat, Friend or Foe?

I've heard of babies disliking prams and thus not wanting to sit in the prams.. but have you ever heard of babies who dun like the car seat? I am sure there must be some of those out there.

For Ace, it's not that he dislikes his car seat.. he just dun seem to like it much.. he would struggle a little when you put him in and he will, in time to come, resign to fate and start gnawing at the seat belts it...

Me and Daddy bought Ace this BUSINESS CLASS CAR SEAT because we wanted him to be comfortable.. end up.. most of the time he was just comfortable in my arms.. Heng this seat can use till like 4,5 years old and we plan to have more children.. if not it is really under utilized man...

But he is going to get into it for all journeys whether he likes it or not soon.. cos he is wriggling too much when I carry him and when he stands up on my seat (which he likes to do ), his head is almost hitting the car roof..

Guess it's our fault too cos me and Daddy lazy to strap him in for short journeys and sometimes we wanted to make use of travelling time to feed..

Must try to make it a habit to let him sit in the seat...
