You are going to be 2 years old in 3 days time! Time flies when im with u! I still love u so very much.. You bring me mostly joy but at times i get very angry at u cause u r exactly like me when u r being terrible.. Your terrible two is here n it seems like its here to stay (of course i hope it will go away soon)..
To date, of course u are already running n all your tooth is out.. So u can basically chew off a finger if u want to.. Hehe.. N your hair is still not growing.. -_- U seriously has mommy's hair.. Light brown color n hard to grow n very little hair kind..
Your most recent photo.. See how your hair doesnt grow...
U are eating like an adult now.. Ah ma no longer specially cooks porridge for u since u hate them.. She specially cook some chicken soup at least once a week so u will grow healthy n strong.. U now eat wat we eat although i still try not to give u something too salty or too sweet.. But u have been eating ice cream cause ah kong spoils u like that.. He only buy Haagen Daz and Baskin Robbins ice cream for u to eat.. U dont take cheap ice cream.. This is how spoilt u r by your ah kong.. Your favorite food to date is something sweet, ramen, ice cream, chicken soup (when your mood is right), bread, cheese and egg.. These are the few food that u will never reject.. I still dont let u eat sweets, chocolate, carbonated drinks or something got MSG or heavily processed food like instant noodles, sausages, ham, fish ball, crabmeat sticks n etc as those are not beneficial.. I will never introduce u to them unless when u r old enough n u happen to explore them by yourself.. U dont really like to eat rice with vege n meat all mixed in together.. I noticed that u will eat more if u self feed with white rice then i separately feed u the veges n meat.. N yes, u can self feed now.. although messy.. But u really prefer to self feed cause u want to act like an adult.. if we try to feed u, u will scream or ask us to put the spoon down so u can feed yourself..
Talking about your terrible two tantrums... Sighh... U scream n yell every single time i dont allow u to do something.. U r like mommy.. Doesnt like to be told what to do n only wants to do it your way.. N if u dont like a certain thing, u make sure n openly lets everyone knows it.. Just like me! Like today while we were at the restaurant, asked u to eat, u say mai.. then u scream.. Asked u to sit down, u refuse n scream.. I dont allow u to walk around during dinner, as in stopped u from climbing down the chair, u scream at me n wanted to use the spoon to hit me.. There were some kicks in between too.. U were lucky cause ah kong n ah ma was there.. If they are not there...HMMPHH.. I could have smacked the shit out of u.. I was really angry n boiling inside.. I was probably more angry cause i couldnt do anything as i was being watch by my in laws.. I was already imagining the 101 ways to beat the crap out of u.. but of course it was all imagination.. the most i would probably do if my in laws was not there is to piss u off more n make u cry more.. N how can i do that? Just by forcing u to sit still n u would have gone into a fit.. hahaha... or like smack your leg for kicking me.. There are times i have the patience to reason with u n ask u why are like this n then hug u when u go nuts.. But most of the time, i go impatient.. I feel im getting more n more impatient.. But having said that, i still love u n forgive u almost immediately.. Just now when u pissed me off so much at the restaurant, i wanted to like go back home right away after dinner.. But end up i decided not to n go for a walk with u.. N u were back to your happy cheerful mode.. Even asked me n daddy to hold your hand one at each side.. N i find that so cute! Brought u to go eat frozen yogurt n as usual, u loved it so much n u were so happy n well behaved.. Not the monster from the restaurant..
U love playing swing.. The first time mommy brought u to play swing at Youth Park, u were so happy n was playing the swing n swinging non stop for at least 45 mins n then u refuse to go home.. I brought u to Youth Park 3 times so far.. n u still hate slide.. Maybe too scary for u..
Our latest family pic taken on the first day of Chinese New Year 2014... Next nicest family photo would probably be taken on your 2nd birthday party... :)
How well do u talk now? U can start to speak 3 vowels.. and sometimes string 3 words sentences.. But mostly its just 2 words sentences like whats this? whats that? sit down. up stairs. oh no!n etc... N yes, u started asking questions already.. So far i can still have the patience to answer all your questions cause u only asks whats this? whats that? Not yet the never ending of WHY questions.. Heehe... Your longest vowels is 4.. Orange Color... But u kinda cheated n make it sound like 3 vowels.. Your pronunciation of orange color sounded like oish color.. lol.. u always have your way to short form the words.. Its not like u dont know how to say orange.. u just prefer to short form it.. Like Snowman.. U say O-man.. But if i ask u to just say Snow, u can say perfectly.. U just want to short cut it..
U have lots of expressions and antics.. Exactly like your dad.. Can see n i think u will be like your dad.. Friendly n stuff cause u dont seem to be overly scared of strangers.. U like to funny faces n do funny stuffs to entertain people... the more people laugh, the more u do.. lol.. Just like your dad..
And i love the daddy n daughter moment that u n your dad share together.. Whenever daddy comes back from work, u can hear his car coming back cause daddy's car is loud! n u will go.. Daddy! Daddy! n point upwards.. Then when daddy come into the room, u will squeal n go daddy! Daddy! excitedly and ask daddy to carry u.. I should really try to video how excited u look whenever daddy comes back for future sake..
This pic was taken cause u randomly go to daddy n sayang him for a really long time.. So i took these pics and ask u to take pics n kiss daddy...
This one also u randomly go up to daddy to see what is daddy looking at.. Then u just lie there n be sweet with your daddy..
This is really cute.. U were just watching some animation with daddy n u randomly just put your hand over daddy.. So i really have to capture this sweet moment!
As i was saying.. Time really flies when i have u.. In a blink of an eye, u r suddenly 2 years old.. Planning to let u go play school early next year... n we r planning to have another baby for u so that when next time mommy n daddy is no longer in this world, u will still have someone to rely on (n of course vice versa for the baby)... Although at time moment mommy is still confused whether to have another one due to some other reasons.. But it seems like giving u a sibling is better than u being alone in this world after your parents is gone... Fingers cross if God allows it, we r planning to have a baby by end of next year.. Financially, we will be very tight with 2 kids.. But we shall see.. Hope God has everything smooth plan out for us..
What else is there to add about u? You finally slept though the night.. Forgot when u started sleeping through the night but oh yeah! U FINALLY SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT!! Oh, i think u r the dancing type.. Not really the singing type.. U dont sing much but u dance whenever u hear music beats.. U love to scribble n draw.. Mommy bought u lots of crayons, easel n etc for u to draw cause i hope u will be as talented as your daddy.. U can count n recognize 1 to 10 but u sometimes miss some numbers n always mistaken 7 for 1 cause it looks almost the same to u.. sometimes your 6 & 9 is an 8 to u cause of the curves i think... U can recognize shapes too.. But u refuse to say properly when u r being cheeky... I was kinda surprise u can recognize shapes cause whenever i teach u about shapes, u were totally not listening or look like u r not listening n refuse to repeat after me.. One day, when i bring out your play doh shape cutter, it has squares, circle n all the basic shapes to cut.. i thought i'd try to ask if u could recognize them.. N u managed to point all the shapes i asked correctly! U can even differentiate squares and rectangle! n i remember when i was in kindergarten, i still get confused between squares and rectangle n now u barely 2 n u could recognize so well! Teaching u to recognize colors is the hardest! Not sure u r being cheeky n purposely say all the wrong colors or u r just color blind.. But i think u r being cheeky cause u can say all the color but refuse to match the correct ones! -_- Even when i just told u this is red color, u will come tell me its pink color.. dammit.. Its seriously hard to teach u proper stuffs like these cause u always looked like u dont pay attention n not listening.. I tried to flip a book n teach u something, u want to flip the page away n totally not listening to me.. So with me that has such short patience, i really dont have much patient to teach u.. But im glad u pick things up quite fast.. Since u pick things up fast, i dont have to put so much effort in teaching u.. I always imagine that if im the super hardworking mom that teach u stuffs everyday, i think u will be a genius baby! Hehehe... Im still trying to pick up the pace n teach u more k.. Im trying to instill the read a book before sleep every night kind of habit.. So far, i havent start yet.. :P
I potty trained u when u were 22 months old.. Took u 3 days to understood the potty training concept.. but u still have accidents your first week.. After the first week, u no longer have accidents during the day but u still have accidents during the night.. At night, i will be light sleeper n try to catch u if u move around while sleeping.. If u move around which means u r holding your pee then i will ask u if u wan to pee n u will always obliged me so i always wake up middle of the night to ask u to go pee.. Then i think after 3 weeks u completely no longer have accidents at night.. Now u only have accidents during your awake time cause u sometimes play until forget to asks to go pee.. You have no accidents during nap time and night time.. You now sleep through the night so u only asks to go pee when u wake up in the morning... If u really need to pee while sleeping, u will wake up n asks to go pee.. Not bad huh? Not even 2 years old n u no longer wear diapers even at night! Sometimes i feel like a very accomplish mother.. Hehehe...
I guess thats all for now.. Till then... Will probably blog about your second birthday party next! Remember, mommy loves u forever n ever!
