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. [...]
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, [...]
I am in kinda stressed frame of mind at the moment
I have mentioned before about Caitlin’s creative streak. When we are at home just chilling and the kids are watching the idiot box, Caitlin would actually “multitask” and do some handicraft, using the scrap A4 papers that HM and I bring home from the office. [...]
Just like the Daddee, my two kids seem to “attract” mosquitoes, as compared to Hot Mummee (and her family members). While she always says it’s because I “smell” (and effectively her own kids too- good one Mummee!) I say it’s because we are sweeter on the inside!
Anyway, Caitlin’s seen Daddee clap-smack mozzies whenever I see [...]
Caleb:
Is making a lot of “noise” now, with..
buh-bye;
Grr-grr- “go-go” is what is uttered whenever we are ready to go out. Now he’s the one telling us we should go out.
Ma’am-mee (nope, still not calling Daddee);
circa and dar (”circle” and “star”, when Daddee was doodling with him);
tonne-ner whenever we enter a tunnel, or even under overhead [...]
Friday morning we were getting ready for work and school respectively. Fridays are when Caitlin’s school has a wading session in their small pool. Since she’s always loved the pool it was always a welcomed day; that as well as an early-age adoption of the adult TGIF concept (she doesn’t seem to like school as [...]
Caitlin knows her Mandarin counting from 1 – 10, audibly. As in, she can cite it. But give her a break, thus far it’s only in ascending order
She also knows her roman numbers already (or do I mean gregorian?? You know- the numbers on your keyboard); proved herself repeatedly in the lift and [...]
Caleb turned 1 in Jan ‘09.
Today he did these….
And then, for the first time(s?) in his life, he stood!
The following pic was actually not the first time he managed to stand. That first time that he did manage to stand, we broke into cheers and applause that frightened him, and literally made him weak [...]
I would say that in planning for this event, my niece has had her first taste in project (event?) managing and executing a pretty major event, even if it’s only a family affair.
And being the cheeky uncle that I am, during times of emailing and IM-ing with her I pressured her highlighting things like “Are [...]
So I was telling my friend Al when Caitlin & I were in Adelaide recently, that I had wanted my kids to grow up in Malaysia, like Hot Mummee & I did; and specifically, for them to get at least Chinese medium primary education, like I had.
Growing up here alone would already expose them [...]
I took Caitlin for the new animation movie, Bolt; no I didn’t lose her in the mall, despite the title of this post.
I should have known, being on a Sunday that the chance was slim in getting tickets. It was after all the first weekend of its screening. In the end, to manage her disappointment, [...]
No, not setting high or any expectations at all.
Merely small stuff that I’d like my kids to have / equipped with / to be skilled at.
Some form of martial arts
To me, I think this is quite an important “skill” to have. Not only is it a form of exercise, it can also be some kinda [...]
