It seems like not too long ago I was telling you all that I turned 21 months, now I am 22 months old!
My Kao Fu will turn 21 years old in a few days' time. When Grandma, Grandpa and Ah Yi came to visit last week, we had a small little celebration. Yummy dinner and then a cake with candles. This time, I was so excited about the candles and singing the Happy Birthday song for Kao Fu. Mummy says I'm all ready for my 2 year old birthday soon.
One nice family photo... without Daddy
I'm so excited about the cake!
With my Ah Yi
Mummy and Dadddy were happy when it was declared national holiday on Dec31 after our football team brought home a trophy, so we had more time to spend with Grandpa, Grandma and Ah Yi. That night, with all the fireworks going off, I woke up at 11.30pm and did not manage to sleep back until 2.30am. I didn't disturb Daddy Mummy but I talked and played by myself.
On Jan 1st, Grandpa, Grandma and Ah Yi went back to Kuala Lumpur so that Ah Yi can prepare for starting her first job on Monday. The same day, in the evening, Mummy and I sent Daddy off to the airport. Daddy went to Seattle US for a short business trip.
Every trip to US is a shopping opportunity. Not knowing that Daddy will be going to US, he got Mummy a Kindle reading device last month (my Mummy loves to read) with Aunty Shiau Yen helping to bring it back. Aunty Shiau Yen, my Mummy thanks you! My Daddy owes you a meal.
This time, Mummy was thinking about getting a sewing machine so she can learn to make pretty and useful things. But she was worried that she will not have the patience to learn a new skill. Daddy said Mummy can try, and got her the sewing machine from US, which is about RM250, which costs RM750 here in Malaysia! Besides that Mummy got other things too, so Mummy says after this she won't buy anymore things for herself for awhile. Once, when Mummy asked me whether I had any money, I said yes. Mummy asked 'where', and I pointed to my play kitchen area. Mummy is puzzled because she never gave me any money, maybe I was referring to some 'imaginative money' since I pretend play a lot now.
I miss my Daddy, but I know where he is... I will say 'Dadda', then sign 'not around', and sign 'aeroplane' while making the sound of the aeroplane. When there are sounds outside the corridor of our house, I will run to the door and say 'Dadda'! When Mummy's phone rings, I also rush to it and say 'Dadda'. I even asked Mummy to bring me to the balcony to look outside for Daddy. After I talk to Daddy on the phone ("Dadda! Bub-bai"), I will give him kisses 'muak muak'. Mummy says I'm so sweet and I'm a good girl.
I have learnt to say many words more accurately lately. I can recognize and say numbers 1-10. I can also recognize and say out colors. I can sing many songs, but Mummy can't really tell what I'm singing except for Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. My Ah Mah says I can sing some Mandarin songs well too. I can also recognize letters A-E... still have many more to learn. Nowadays, my favorite book is 'Curious George Goes to the Hospital'... I can relate to many things in the book. D&M have to read it to me everyday. I insist.
Everyone who knows me says the most difficult thing about me is eating. I like to keep my food in the mouth, unless I really really like the food. Despite that, I am growing well. D&M say I'm getting rather heavy... they are really glad about that, since I lost so much weight when sick about 2 months ago. Do I look more healthy lately?
