As the babysitter told me that she has been potty trained Xuan for the past 2 weeks. She will put on the diapers for him during naptime and other than that he is on his pants only. Whenever he wants to pee, he will run to her by telling that he wants “Zi Zi”.

In the late evening after having our dinner, we visit my mother-in-law. Xuan is so energetic, he is running here and there and playing all by himself cos her sister and brother has gone for holiday. He likes to jump from the room doorstep to the living room, when my mother-in-law makes some act, he will laugh happily.

I think is time for me to bring him to toilet for “Zi Zi”. I really feel so happy that I managed to potty him cos this is my first time train him. When reach home, he pee out cos we are not fast enough to bring him to the toilet. Anyway, I am grateful that he is co-operative with us in this potty training matter!

I like to put on this baju for my little boy, which is from Pigeon. As I mentioned in my previous post that I like Pigeon brand very much due to the quality. Their sizes are mostly from newborn to 18 months. At the moment the baju still can fit him quite ok but the pants is a bit short. It means that my little boy is growing each passing day!

It has been quite sometime that I never have a good opportunity to take picture with my little boy unless my hubby is willing to do so. I sometime feel very bored by asking him to snap my picture together with my little boy cos he is not patient enough. As you gals know, snapping a perfect picture is not as easy as ABC. Sometime I need to flare-up in order for him to help me. I will say this to him What the purpose for getting a camera if you don’t utilize it always?”

August 22, 2008

I found that my little boy is a loving boy. Why do I say that? When we are coughing/sneezing, he will come over to us and pat us on our chest and he will bring us water on the side table for us too. One incident, he really upset cos I never drink the water and putting it back on the table. He’s a bit fussy and cry. So, from that incident, I will drink it whether I am coughing or sneezing.

Can you guess what is he doing?

August 21, 2008

I bought this Do Do Ladybug toy for him since last year. He started to show interest with it 1 month back. He will hug and kiss it. Sometime, when he refuse to come over to me, I will trick him by kissing it and he will come over immeditely for me to kiss him. Of course, he will get jealous by throwing it away. I really like the way he hug and kiss the toy!

How time flies, my little boy is 21 months. I noticed that he knows quite a number of words and understand my instructions very well too (the most important… hahaha).

Some updates on his development.

* He knows how to call me Mummy or Me Me very clearly after a long wait.
* He will tell me “Bor Bor” when the show ends.
* When I tell him “wash your buttock” (in hokkien), he will squat down immediately.
* He will hug and kiss us whenever ask him to do so. Sometime he will kiss us without asking! It really melts our hearts.
* Will ask for his “Kut Kut” (water).
* He will bring his writing board to me and ask me to draw an Apple and Ball for him.
* He has good eyesight.

I have been trying to wean off Xuan milk intake during nighttime. For the past 2 nights, Xuan does not wake up for his milk in the middle of the night.

Before putting him to sleep, he will asks for his milk and I have had some conversation with him.

Myself : Darling, you must finish your “nen nen” huh?
Xuan : He nod his head.
Myself : Then you cannot wake up at night for your “nen nen”

Xuan : He nod his head again and drank his milk.
Myself : You are a big boy now, so you don’t have to take your “nen nen” at night so mummy can sleep throughout the entire night cos mummy need to work the next day, ok, ok?
Xuan : He nod his head again and again.


I was so happy and thought that Xuan will not take his milk during night time. But on Sunday mid-night, he's making noise. I just ignored him and continue with my sleep hoping that he will be quiet after a while without answering him.
He keeps on calling me “Meme” and I feel I am so blessed cos I attended to him and only found out that he is having fever. I took his temperature, which is 38°C, and his whole body is so hot. I feel so scared at that moment and blaming myself for not attending him earlier. I feed him with his fever medication and allowing him to sleep with us.

August 10, 2008

As I mentioned in my earlier post that I never take pictures of my little boy for quite some time due to no mood and the lazinness worm is attackign me. As you know, it is very difficult to snap a picture of growing up toddler cos they won't sit or stand still waiting for you to take their pictures. But, anyhow I managed to snap some of his shots by bribing him my handphone.

It's quite sometime that I never snap pictures of my little boy because I am lazy. Today, I have the mood to snap cos he's wearing this set of baju that I think it is quite cute. The baju fit him nicely. So, I quickly grab the camera and try to snap his pictures as fast as I can but he isn't cooperative as I wish. He wants the camera and I have to trick him by giving him my handphone and asking him to take my pictures as well.

I sent Xuan for his last jab of booster. When doctor poked on his thigh, he only cry less than 5 seconds. His development is going very well, his weight is 11.01kg and height is 82cm even doctor also give a thumb up for his weight. He also asks us to bring Xuan for the Hepatitis A jab in November.

July 13, 2008

Due to Xuan is not so cooperative when photo taken on June 29, 2008 at Jaya Jusco, Mid Valley. So I decided to throw another photo session for him on July 06, 2008. This time he is very cooperative after a warm up session with the staffs.

As planned earlier that we will collect the pictures at De One Studio in Desa Sri Hartamas after our shopping at One Utama today. I am so happy that the outcome of the pictures is fantastically. I really admire each and every piece of the pictures very much!

I found that my little Xuan is growing up rapidly each passing days. I must feel content cos Xuan is behaving quite well. After fetching him from babysitter and I put him in the living area and letting him to explore all by himself, so that I can do some light house chores like putting the clothes into washing machine and getting ready his stuff.

He’s going to turn 20 months in a week time and these are his developments as far as I know…

* Mix languages, he understands Cantonese, English, Mandarin, Hokkien and Hakka.
* He knows how to called Pa Pa, Po Po, Pak Pak and Jie Jie very clearly. He also know how to called mummy (depends on his mood) when hubby asked him give me something.
* Will help me to put his dirty clothes into his bin.
* After the powder incident he rarely goes into the kitchen, I think he has a good memory.
* He is quite friendly after a warm-up.
* He started to choose and pick his clothing.
* Pacifier, he loves it very much. I think it is difficult to wean him off.
* He can only take 6oz to 7oz of milk. He still wants his milk in the middle of the night.
* More teeth are erupting now.
* He attached to me more than my hubby and sometimes it really makes no room for me to breathe.
* When scolding him, he will show his pity face and pretending to cry by coming over to you to "sayang" him. He is a cheeky boy!

I make a call to De One Studio today asking about Xuan’s pictures whether it is ready for collection. When they told me I could collect it anytime at Mid Valley today. It makes my heart so eager to see the pictures. What makes me so eager? Its just because, this is Xuan first time taking pictures by a professional photographer. I am very very satisfied with the outcome, no doubt Xuan is not smiling and with his cool look; to me it is something unusual. Hahaha…

Here comes my little darling…
