The final injection

Toady mummy brought me to take my final injection until I turn 7yrs old. The aunty nurse measured me and weighed me and the doctor aunty checked me. All ok.

So now, I weigh 9.5kg and stand at 82cm. My weight is still slightly below the 50th percentile but my height is in the 75th percentile. :)

of falls, knocks and bruises

This week is a week of tumbles and crying and knocks and blood and pain pain.

#1
It all started on the 24th Aug. I slipped on a small puddle of water and fell, knocking the back of my head. Mummy tried to wash my backside and the shower head went crazy and sprayed water outside of the toilet without mummy noticing. After the bath, I followed mummy to take a plastic bag and on the way back to my room that's when the accident happened.

#2
This is on the 26th Aug. Daddy and Mummy brought me to AMK NTUC. On the way back walking from the carpark after the rain, mummy was carrying me and mummy slipped on the slippery drain cover and fell with me in her arms. Got a scrape on my left elbow and a tiny cut on the upper lip , mummy got a scrape on the right elbow and a bruise on the left knee. Cried like no tomorrow. Seeing blood for the first time coming out of my skin.

#3
This is on the 30th Aug. Was at grandma's place and was carrying Caleb Korkor's drum while walking. Tripped and knocked my forehead on the TV console cupboard.

What a week. -_-''''''

I will be more careful in the future.

Letter from mummy

Dearest Netanya
You turn 18 months today and you are getting cuter and wittier as the days go by. Although sometimes you still make me angry and still has your ways with your drinking and eating, I still thank God for growing you and making my worries about your growth become in vain.

With your ability to communicate now, life is much simpler and its quite fun sometimes trying to decipher what you are trying to say. Your intelligence just makes me wonder what is going through your mind sometimes. Your cheekiness leaves me in a dilema if I should be angry at you or laugh at you.

I believe there are still lots more to learn about you and from you and I am looking forward to more days spent with you. :)

May God fill you with joy and love so that you can continue to share them with us. :)

Love
Mummy

I am 1.5 Years Old

I turn 1.5years old today (18 months).

Here's some things I can/like to do:
- talk in a language that no one understands sometimes
- Tell myself jokes in my own language and laugh to myself
- count from 1 to 10 missing out #6
- sing twinkle twinkle little star (guided and some unclear words)
- help mummy sing Hey Diddle Diddle by contributing sound effects
- READ books
- Ask mummy/daddy to read
- listen to the song Round Round (the wheels on the bus)
- Tell mummy/daddy that I poo poo after I have done it

A day at Fidgets

Today I woke up exceptionally early (I'm always early at grandma's) at 715am. I thought the outing would be cancelled cos I might need a nap. Who knows, we went ahead and I had my cat power nap in the car on the way there. (All because mummy took the wrong exit out of the expressway so I had more time to sleep. haha)

The place, Turf City, Fidgets. Its a huge place with a huge jungle gym but I'm being my usual self, being faithful to just the balls and car. Here's a sneak at the cars that I rode on. Aunty HL got more pictures. Will upload them when she sends to mummy. uploaded.

Gone Camping

Daddy's going away again and I am going camping. Will be a short one and am sure Mummy has the days well planned.

17th (mon night) -- Start of camp
18th (tues) -- To my paternal grandparents'
19th (wed) -- outing with Aunty HL and Faith Jiejie
20th (thurs) -- To my paternal grandparents'
21st (fri) -- to school and to the airport

Free stuff

Mummy received a couple of days ago and someone from Nestle said that they were coming to our home to deliver some stuff. Mummy is clueless about how these came about but well, its free so no need to complain. :)

of red dots and itch

On Thursday, Daddy spotted some dots on my legs and hands. Thinking that it might be just heat rash or sunburnt (due to the zoo) or allergic reaction to something. On Friday, they got worse. Daddy suggested we go see the doctor in the morning but there were just too many people in the clinic so it was decided that we go back in the evening.

Doctor aunty said it was either an allergy to something but definitely not something I ate cos I didn't eat any new food. Or maybe its a viral rash. I showed off my talking skills to the doctor aunty and she said that I was intelligent for my age. :) She gave me a botle of medicine and told mummy that if it didn't subside by Tuesday, I should be back seeing her again.

There goes the money out of the pocket.

Let's go to the zoo, zoo, zoo.....

The pictures says it all. My favourite to date are monkeys and big big monkeys (aka orang utan) and giraffe and goat and horse and penguins.

We made it there in time for the "Safari Fight Back" show and right after that show we went to watch the water animal show (I forgot the name). I enjoyed the first show better.



We walked around to see some monkeys.



While watching, we heard some noise and went to the elephant exhibit to see the elephant show. No interest to me. :p

We headed to the children zoo instead. On our way there, we met the renowned Ah Meng.

Finding our bearings, we foudn the chimpanzees and spent some time there.



Next stop, lunch, and children zoo.



we saw some goats, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, ponies. I'm a pony whisperer if you do not know.



Here's what we did and saw at the kidszone.



After that we went to see more monkeys and other animals. Money with a colorful face and backside, monkey with a big nose, reptiles, tortoise, bear, etc.



Then we went to see the big big monkey in a glass house and the feeding of these monkeys. The big big monkey in the glass house is BIG and it looks really old.



After that we proceeded to see other animals.



On the way out, I slept and it started to rain and we went home. So much for the zoo. There are still some other animals I haven't see. I think we will go back there again.
