Yes, I know this is overdue, so overdue that the fortnight of Chinese New Year celebrations are already over. Just thought I’d share this lovely photo of my two lovely kids. Grandma bought these outfits for them- trust her (and her taste) to find these treasures. The kids wore these on the first day of the new [...] I have said before that I envy Caleb’s head-shape: Cos this Daddee can never pull off getting a crew cut like this and still look “normal”, instead, likely to even get a chuckle from people at first sight. This shot was taken under 30min of him having it cut. As you can guess, it was in [...] Dr Pixie warned before that children reaching 2 will start to push the envelope with you. Caleb turned 2 this January. But this post isn’t about him. Last night I smacked Caitlin- the grab-her-arm-so-she-can’t-run-away smack; the night before Hot Mummee smacked her too. I have had long car-ride talks with her about being the big sister to Caleb- [...] This title certainly got you clicking Everyone has their styles. Some hold their groins scurrying and yelling “I gotta go I GOTTA GO” while others do so subtly, yet while others (still) don’t tell you AT ALL that they have done it. As far as a number 1 goes, Caleb won’t tell you. At all. [...] *Jie jie means older sister in Mandarin, and coincidentally, also in Cantonese; just in different intonations. Between my two kids, the one who seems to show more compassion is, surprisingly, my son. Maybe because Caitlin has somewhat been spoiled being the centre of attention for the first 3 years of her life. Maybe she unconsciously resents [...] Everytime Caleb’s jie-jie rides her tricycle or her training-wheeled bicycle he’d come up from behind and gladly be pushing her. Never has he asked to be riding it, even though he has Caitlin to see as an example. So, since the tricycle is broken from regular wear and tear (I actually think it’s because Caitlin is [...] For the end of Ramadhan month here in Malaysia, we had a really long weekend off work. Caitlin’s school, in fact, had the whole week off (they had a couple of Saturdays of school to make up for closing the whole week). It was also Hot Mummee’s birthday on the 21st Also, Yee yee [...] This is the scene when peace isn’t much longer now… So how many of us realise; and how often do we remind ourselves, that whatever we do, say, behave, respond to situations, treat our own loved ones and other fellow human beings, we are being watched by the little kids around us? Sometimes when I make a passing remark, opinion, upcoming event or plans, Caitlin would [...] If it weren’t for the plastic teapot that gives it away, you’d think (I hope) that he was going through and making notes of some of the white papers I had printed to read. As one of the *good examples of Caitlin as the jie-jie is setting, Caleb has also taken an interest in doodling too. [...] Caleb did. When he first developed the fever on Sunday, we didn’t think much about it, only perhaps he’d caught something; maybe from his sister. But you wouldn’t know it. Caleb has been running around being his cheeky self, toddling around in circles at tv jingles, walking after HM when he sees her, playing and demanding the [...] I was showing Caleb some of the videos I have taken; he does seem to like watching them too, and I kinda condone it ‘cos I remind him of who everyone is especially the relatives. Showed him the tongue action of his jie-jie He immediately copied what he saw! And by the way, having the radio going all [...] Woken by the kids, got them some morning snacks, and since it wasn’t too sunny and hot…. Luckily for everyone, Caleb actually likes to push from behind. But it won’t be long though, before he’d be wanting to ride. Yes, they were still in their jammies. It’s Sunday okay- give us parents a break! Evening came and it [...] I am kinda struggling with this one. Caitlin, in general is sweet to her younger brother Caleb. Since she was able to walk, she’d been fascinated by other humans her size. So, I guess it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise that she is so, to her little brother. However, having been the only child for [...] I started this blog about 2 years ago now. Caitlin would have been about 2.5 years old then. If memory serves me right, I would have already done this memorable (at least to me) routine with her already: HM was always working late, so it was up to me to tuck Caitlin into bed. At her [...] At one stage I did want to try sporting a crew cut. Call it chicken, call it because-my-hair-is-thinning. It’s because the shape of my head will only make me look (more) silly. But my son sports it well- the second time proves it wasn’t a fluke Sigh… Yes- That is drool on his chin… Hot Mummee came home with the kids yesterday evening. She was the one bringing them home from Grandma’s since I opted to head straight home to use the common room’s treadmill (as you know I am always complaining about my weight, now I am trying to do something. Trying) Went downstairs to help “herd” them upstairs, [...] |
