Another weekend passed in a blink of eyes. Things maintain stagnant, routine after routine... Last week, we went to Tari Cafe to celebrate Valentine's Day...V-day now is no longer a celebration only between mummy & daddy but with the addition to our lil' family, Emeryn who was there too.. We had chicken chop and Mexican burger...

While on Sat, out of boredom, mummy & daddy brought emeryn to Queensbay for window shop... We walked around for 1.5hours and brought emeryn to the kid's zone for those kiddy rides...Before heading home, we stopped by at Mc Donald for emeryn's fav ice cream.. She is an ice cream lover...Slowly daddy is bringing back the gap between him and his lil' sweetheart.. We saw the Jusco Baby contest at the kid's section. Wow, it was a year back when emeryn won the Jusco Baby Consolation prize...This round emeryn falls under the Category 2, 12-24mths baby. Without hesitation, mummy took up the form and was glad to know we didn't miss it this year...

We went to Queensbay again just now (24th, Sun) as there will be a baby contest and photography session held...Mummy submitted 2 entries with a min purchase of RM30 each. Emeryn wore her CNY suit for the photography session. We reached Jusco at about 2pm and registered ourselves right away...While waiting for emeryn's turn for the photography session, emeryn played around at the kid's zone again... We too went to ToysRUs and emeryn had mashed potato at Dave's Deli..We also registered for the games contest...

Emeryn's photo session went on smoothly. This round she is very co-operative unlike last year... We printed out a 4r pic at the price of RM12 and waited for the games to start...It was the puzzle games between baby & mummy. Only 3 groups participated... :( Rules of the game: the baby will need to run forward and collect as many alphabet puzzle to the mummy in between 1min and 30sec... While the mummy needs to form a many words as possible using the puzzle her baby has collected. Yuhoo!!! We emerged as the 1st winner and took home a Anakku hamper...

Though is a tiring day but it worth all the time spend... Such a memorable day and we look forward for the result of the baby photography contest.. How nice if history repeats again. Haha.. Greedy mummy!!!

19months Update

@ Tari Cafe on Valentine's Day

By now emeryn still can’t speak a proper sentence. Sigh. Ever since daddy is back and granny is now baby sitting baby Florence, emeryn becomes naughtier and badly spoilt. She likes to shout and scream in order to catch our attention. She become bad tempered and crankier especially now she has yet to spell out her wish. She become envious when granny carrying baby Florence. She wants the same attention or even more. Each time mummy beat or scold emeryn, daddy will protect her, making emeryn a real spoilt brat now.

In the brighter side, emeryn loves having baby Florence at home. Everyday she would come to the room and kiss Flo. She would touch her face and body softly but of course under the supervision of an adult at least. Hehe. She would help Ah Ma with the feeding, changing and carrying. No doubt she really loves a lil’ sister. When Flo is sleeping, she would walk off from the room showing silence sign with her lil’ finger and also point to the light asking Ah Ma to turn off the switch. She calls Flo as “dih-dih” (baby).

She can understand a few Malay words like:

• Duduk (she can pronounces duduk clearly)
• Mandi (she pronounces it as dih)
• Makan
• Sikat rambut
• Busuk

Emeryn is catching up on her speech now. Though she can’t pronounce in a proper way but she can go according to the flow:

• Emeryn (Eh-ne-neh)
• Pacifier (Peh-di-di-er)
• Thank you (Thank-thank or cute)

Looking forward for emeryn to communicate in real language with mummy and daddy. Emeryn would be a very talkative yet sociable girl. Everywhere she goes, she would try to talk to other even stranger. Undeniable she is likeable by all. :)

Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!

Weekend with Daddy

Emeryn & Daddy

Emeryn & neighour's son (Kelvin)

@Botanical Garden

Last weekend would be the 1st weekend mummy is getting some help while bringing emeryn out. On Sat, mummy & daddy brought emeryn to Queensbay for a window shopping. This time mummy brought along her stroller and cart emeryn around. Now emeryn would love us to carry her around. Since her weight is gaining day by day, mummy’s hands get very painful each time carrying such a heavy girl. So the stroller would be a great help to mummy. At the end of the day, daddy brought emeryn a sundae cone from McD. After finishing it, emeryn gave daddy a kiss on his cheek. How sweet? Emeryn is such a smart girl. She only compliment daddy with a kiss if daddy pampers her like a lil’ princess. Apart from that, she would keep a distance from daddy.

Whilst on Sun, we went to granny’s place at noon time. Ee ee was back from Singapore and bought emeryn a Koala bear backpack during her trip to Australia. Earlier we planned to go to the beach but later changed our minds and decided to head to Botanical Garden instead.

We walked around the playground before heading to the pool and Emeryn got herself wet. Again emeryn was having great time in the pool and refused to go home. Mummy has no choice but to drag her out from the pool. Emeryn was obviously tired and slept right after taking her shower at home.

Earlier on, mummy invited our neighbour’s son over for a play time with emeryn at our place. If I did not mishear his mum, his name should be Kelvin. Let’s call him Kelvin at the time being. Emeryn was tailing Kelvin all around while he is riding emeryn’s toy car. Later on, both of them turned naughty and refused to share the toy. They both were fighting and pushing each other. What a scenario? This would be mummy’s first time seeing such incident in emeryn. Seeing it, giving me a world of disaster for having another baby, huh. OR the least, not anytime soon.

Welcome back, Daddy

Emeryn & Daddy

@ the coffee shop waiting for our dinner

blow-dry her teddy

Daddy surprised us with his early coming back... He touched down at Penang Airport on 27^th Jan, 12.40pm... Mummy went to pick daddy up alone as emeryn was taking her nap... Well, daddy still looks the same... Same size, same complexion, same hair style but has a much fairer skin and also speaks English more. Hehe. :)

Emeryn was having her milk while daddy reached home... But emeryn doesn’t look comfortable having daddy there...Daddy was like a total stranger to emeryn... Emeryn doesn’t go near to daddy and dare not talk to daddy...She only murmured the word “PaPa” twice.. Obviously she can’t refresh her memory well... Mummy assumes she would be happy to see daddy as she was missing him a lot before he comes home... Freaking disappointed!!! Well, emeryn might need more time to adapt to daddy all over again since he left to Birmingham 4.5months ago...

Daddy showed emeryn some photo we took together before daddy left to UK... Emeryn keep looking at the photo and turned her thought to daddy’s face alternately to compare... She might be thinking “Are sure you’re my daddy?” She can’t figure out too...She can only recognized the man in the photo as daddy but not in reality... Daddy was having tough time to attract his lil’ sweetheart’s attention.. Emeryn still look stiff and numb even after awhile... Oh boy, what can we do??? Daddy brought emeryn to the room and played with her, trying to bring back the good old times and bringing the gap nearer...The whole day emeryn sticked to mummy like uhu glue... She dare not keep her distance from mummy... :(

Mummy & daddy went home to unpack leaving emeryn at granny’s place... Later in the evening, we went for a ride in the car before heading for our late dinner...Mummy was driving but emeryn was crying badly as she wanted to get near to mummy...She still feels uncomfortable with daddy... Poor baby!!! Daddy then drove the car and mummy consoled emeryn... We had our dinner in town area and emeryn too was having the food over there... Later mummy drove home while daddy carried emeryn on the passenger seat...Emeryn was tired and resting on daddy’s shoulder...

That nite we slept together on the same bed and again emeryn was having difficulties on the bed as she loves to toss and roll over on the bed before she could fell asleep... She can’t do that as the bed was rather small for us... Out of tiredness, she slept very soon...Mummy then went out from the room and continue unpack leaving both father & daughter in their dreamlands... Good nighty to both my darling..

Swimming @ Aunty Mei's Place

Another weekend flew between a blink of eyes and CNY is forthcoming... It’s time for giving ang-pow (for mummy) and getting ang-pow (for emeryn)... This would be Emeryn’s 2^nd year celebrating CNY and a lot of new dresses are waiting for emeryn...

On Sat, mummy brought emeryn to the market... We bought some CNY decorative stuff for this coming CNY.. Wow, lot of rat cartoon designs available!!! Mummy choose 3 of them but hell, I can’t read Chinese... So what the heck, just choose those which caught my eyes..What a disgrace??? Emeryn had her late afternoon nap and woke up at about 7pm... We went to the pasar malam for a walk since emeryn won’t be able to sleep early that nite...

We went to grandma’s place earlier about 2pm as we are heading for a swim later... Too bad grandpa was out for work and requested us to wait till he comes home...We can’t wait any longer as it’s getting late.. Well, since aunty Mei has come back from Sabah, mummy is meeting her quite frequent... I seriously can’t hold my laughter mentioning “Aunty Mei”... Gosh, back then she insisted on “che che’ before having her lil’ precious. We went over to her apartment (Putra Place) for a swim last Sun...Mummy was bringing a lot of Emeryn’s stuff and was stopped by the security guard while entering the entrance... It’s so obvious that we are not the resident there.. Opsiee, so there we went to register.

The swimming pool was huge and has a nice slide and a small water fountain... Aunty Mei is not allowed to swim yet and she brought Florence to peek a look on us in the pool... She must be envy and must be thinking “when can I join them in the pool?” Emeryn met some kid in the pool and walked over them (as usual, my lil’ sociable baby)...Another big boy was attracted to emeryn and keep on holding her hands... Before we left to the changing room, the big boy was saying “don’t go baby”. Haha. :)

After changing we dropped by at Aunty Mei’s house and visit Flo before leaving... She was sleeping soundly while emeryn wanted to go near again... We left shortly.. Emeryn fall while walking towards the car but luckily her jeans keeps her unharm.She was crying all the way home as she was feeling very sleepy and tired too...

Welcoming Baby Florence

@ Jobstreet Annual Dinner

blushing happily with bumble-bee head gear

Last weekend emeryn stayed at Pekaka as mummy was traveling to KL for sales convention and annual dinner... Thus, there’s no outing for emeryn...Mummy bought a pair of white lacy socks for emeryn to be worn on CNY...

At last we fixed a new car for Emeryn and emeryn exciting driving all over the house...It was her 1^st Birthday present. :) Last week and even now, emeryn was down with eczema on her leg, forehead, hands and neck. Poor baby!!! Lately emeryn turned out to be very naughty... Each time after feeding, she will spill her milk on the bed sheet..When mummy is in the shower, she would use a chair and climb onto the dressing table and mess around...She even poured the body powder out from its container making the whole dressing table, window and floor dirty... Mummy has no choice but to beat and scold her. Eventually mummy beats her up so badly that her body turns red. But amazingly, she did not cry nor make any fuss...Guess she is so use to the beating and scolding from mummy... Most of the time she would stand still when mummy scolds and beats her...She then will kiss and hug mummy in terms of apologizing for her mistakes...

Yesterday we went to visit Aunty Mei & Baby Florence... Aunty Mei has just come back for good from Sabah bringing her newborn 1mth old baby Flo...Emeryn was so excited upon seeing baby Flo and wanted to touch her lil’ fragile face.. Emeryn likes going near to Flo and try touching her...Before going to aunty mei’s place, mummy told emeryn to be gentle towards baby and she even showed mummy how she will touch the baby...Mummy got to be very watchful towards emeryn as she would hurt Flo unintentionally... Emeryn walked around non-stop and checking out each and every single thing in the room.. Such an active baby i have, huh??? We gave Flo a small Garfield bolster and a lil’ soft toy piggy as a gift to her...Hope Flo will like it. :) Aunty MeiLing & Aunty Jane were around as well...

Cheers~ Emeryn gonna have a new friend, Flo and she is going to be “che-che” to Flo.
