This is How Ern Creep!

This is to share with you how Ern creep. Poh Poh said Ern is about to crawl soon, from the way she pushed her hand and knee up.

Btw, the soft toy (it's a TY) is her all time favourite. Daddy named in as Dino.

First Fall!

Ern fell down from our bed and hit right at the floor this morning. To cut the story short, it was the adult’s fault, obviously. We felt extremely guilty!! :-(

She cried (pain for sure) but when we hold her in our arms, she stopped immediately (phew, thank god!). 10 mins later, she slept soundly and "manja-ly" in my arms.

When she woke up from her nap, she was still as playful as before. Giggling when we played "char" ( peek-a-boo in Hokkien) with her!

Brought her to see paed. No fracture found but just need to monitor her for next 48 hours - no vomit & dizziness!

Let's pray everything is ok for Ern. Poor baby. Hopefully no nightmare for her tonight!

The elderly used to say when a child falls, it symbolizes another growth milestone!

Dumb & Dumber Part # 2

After incident # 1, the "Dumb & Dumber" (D&D) couple did another D&D act on Sunday:

1) Hair Trimming
Poh Poh reminded me to trim Ern's hair (fringe) as it's getting long and about kena the eye already. Not to say i wanted an easy way out, but i just to make sure it's "hassleless" to both Ern and I. So, Ern turned out to be so FUNNY after the cut! *slap head* Daddy "complimented" on Ern's hair by saying " Wow Ern, you received a hair cut from Philip Sume huh!!"



2) Cloth Diaper Clip
It is a challenge to change clothes/diaper for Ern right now! The moment you put her on the bed, she will turn over to her tummy IMMEDIATELY! It is as if she has been "programmed"! The only time when she will stay still is if you are playing or talking to her. Ok..ok..let me go into the topic. While changing the cloth diaper, Daddy unintentionally put the clip just next to her. When she turned, the face (in between the mouth & neck) kena the clip. Luckily, it was gone 24 hours later! :-)

Handmade Gift

Ern received this handmade gift when Aunty Yen Nee visited her in hospital. It may look simple but it has meaning to it:

1) Ern was borned on the "dog" year
2) Mummy loves pink color
3) Another new item to Ern's toy collection
4) It's handmade!!

2 weeks ago, Ern received a CNY gift from Aunty Yen Nee while visiting her stall at Upper Penang Road. It is just a perfect gift because:

1) Red color - it attracts Ern's attention
2) There is a stick for Ern to hold
3) The bell at the tail creates sound, which attracts Ern as well
4) Another handmade!



Yen Nee is an old friend of Mummy and we were friends since primary school!! Back in school, Yen Nee already excelled in art work. Since then, she has blossomed by transforming her creativity into fine art work. See below, it was a wedding gift from her. It's 100% handmade, including the tuxedo and wedding gown on the doll!!!

I am currently working with Yen Nee to create a 100% handmade photo album for Ern. It will be a 12 pages photo album, featuring the month-to-month photos of Ern! I want to make it memorable yet special for Ern, at least for her first 12 months in life. So, stay tuned!

If you are interested on Yen Nee's art work, you can:
1) Visit her website (co share with another friend) - it is still a WIP web site, more pictures will be uploaded.
2) Visit her stall at Upper Penang Road on the last Sunday of every month.
3) Contact me.

"你看着我，我看着你"

Ern will look at you (to be exact, it's actually the mouth) "this way" if you are eating. What's more, she will look at you "this way" until you finish the last piece of the food!!!

If you are holding something, she will grab the "something" you hold!! See here.

Kau Foo took this picture as he thinks it's a sweet moment...to me, it reminds me of the famous song by "Loi Fong" - Lei Hon Chiok Ngo, Ngo Hon Chiok Lei (你看着我，我看着你 ~吕方)....hahaha
