So it’s good that Caitlin has been able to read the alphabet for a while now. The other day, while assisting with her pj’s, she noted “M” on the tag of her pj pants. “Daddee, why am I wearing pyjamas for boys?” “Huh?” Looking at the colour scheme of what she had on. “No, these are colourful [...] 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. [...] Caitlin has always been a little taller than average for her age. One day she came up to me all serious and asked “Daddee, am I tall?” “Yes darling, you are considered tall for your age. Why?” “I heard Grandma and Mummee telling their friends and say that I am tall.. and I don’t like when they laugh [...] Kids had only just gone back to school after a really really long year-end break. Being the rather laid back parents that we are; okay maybe “lazy” is the better description, we had only left it to the kids to entertain themselves with repeated playing of their favourite DVD’s. One in particular this season was/is Ice Age [...] Last night was Caitlin’s real experience of Halloween; well, for this Daddee too, actually. Last year’s Halloween in particular (because I can’t remember if 2007’s Halloween left any impression on this then-just under 4 years old), the kids in our building came around all dressed and made up. Caitlin was more than just a little [...] I was just reading this article about disciplining children, and reminded me of what had happened only this morning. Granted it would always be the parents’ fault if children don’t get sufficient sleep/not going to bed early enough. Of late, I have found that Caitlin would still wake at around the same time in the morning, [...] 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 [...] Woo look…. Jigsaw puzzle…. But the news hour is more interesting… Yup- it’s already going to be Friday already tomorrow. Took today and Friday off from work, just to “do stuff” with Caitlin. All week so far she’s been holed up in the apartment with Hot Mummee working from home, and really working. Poor kids haven’t been outdoors at all for some 72 hours or so earlier [...] At least I also think that’s what it’s called. But just like Daddee being innocently ignorant about its proper description, Caitlin was referring to her new pair of shoes as the “up down shoes”. Now you gotta really sit down and think about how she could possibly come up with a name like that. I did, yet [...] 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 [...] I was just going through the photo library on my laptop… and this just occurred to me. Does this look like a hand of a 4 year old? Maybe it does to you. To me it looks more like- maybe a 10 year old’s hand. This was when Auntie Susan and Uncle Jonathan had lunch with us at [...] Caitlin had fever on Sunday. So she didn’t attend her 1st session of her art class (actually it would be her 2nd session, they allowed her a trial session last weekend to assess her: behaviour, “standard” of her skills like drawing & painting, etc, to decide which level / class to put her). We decided [...] I have this really old and (therefore) oversized tank top; probably got it from Petaling Street many years ago. I wear it to bed, and sometimes don’t change out of it, and even go out getting take away lunch- it gets hot okay! Besides I am only going to get hawker-food lunch, nothing fancy (as long [...] Being the youngest I grew up with books and some comics already in the house (as well as contemporary music like The Carpenters, some Beatles, Glen Campbell, John Denver… Oh my I’m scaring myself while I list this) One of the comics that sticks in my head is Peanuts: Charlie Brown & Snoopy, Linus & his [...] 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 [...] Grandma has a big clear plastic sheet over her fabric table runner/cover for her dining table. For practical purposes, it makes wiping down a lot easier after meals, preserving the cleanliness of the fabric underneath. Caitlin was the last to finish her dinner; and Daddee had an engagement but came home to get the kids no-too-late [...] |
