Mummy and Daddy have been married 4 years!

Here's what their wedding pictures looked like..


Mummy goes "I'm two!!"


Daddy acting cool.. (Not sure what's up with the sunglasses..)


Finally, a normal pose.


Aaack.. Daddy's car had no roof? Or is Mummy standing outside the window? Come in Mummy!!


Hee hee.. Mummy and Daddy sitting in a tree.. K, I, S, S, I, N, G... hee hee..


I've seen this one before on the wall...


Hmm.. Daddy looks "bulky" here..

Happy Happy Happy Happy Anniversary Mummy and Daddy! I love you both lots!

I had to wake up at 5am to look for the pictures and blog whilst they were sleeping so they would get a surprise... hee hee..

The Kajang trip

Many people have asked me if Uncle Handsome Lau's name is really Handsome. I think I better let Uncle Handsome Lau answer that.

Anyway, here's are two pictures of us at Uncle Handsome Lau and Aunty Claudine's wedding.





I also had an opportunity to catch up with Shania (Uncle Kok Jau and Aunty Melissa's daughter).




We had a great time in Kajang and I had fun playing with my cousin, Han Qing, whom I hadn't seen for a few months now. He's doing very well indeedy..







Lastly, here's a nice pic of me..

See you all soon!

P.S. Yes, Mummy and Daddy did have Kajang Satay this time around too!

A bundle of joy....

and a bigger bundle of energy too. Watching Gabriel play, move around and climbing onto chairs and stairs really makes me tired nowadays. Where did that little body of his get so much of energy from?? I am having trouble catching up with him on some days. So, it's either me getting old or he is just too full of energy.

He is also the king of repetition. He can go up and down the couch, chair or steps, for at least 20 times. Looking at him do that makes me really exhausted! He is also doing great at following the leader these days. In other words, being a copycat. The moment anyone does anything new, he will be at it the next moment. Quite scary for us as he will be standing on the couch, swinging from the gate, climbing the gate, etc. We have to watch him like a hawk! Just this morning he tripped and fell and hit the edge of a table. He got a small cut at the corner of his eyelid. It could have hit his eye.

Turning 16 months is also a milestone I think. All of a sudden he is repeating everything I say. He is trying to widen his vocabulary now, something he was not doing before. It is so cute and fun to hear him repeat every word I say. Funny and weird pronounciations are abound as he is still not able to pronounce certain alphabets yet. Very fun and interesting. He is also babbling a lot more now and sometimes they do sound right. Anything with buttons is a phone to him. He looks so cute when he starts talking (more like babbling) to the remote control which he holds to his ear.

Everyday, we will learn something new from him about him. Today, whilst Fred was reading to him, I actually asked him to ask Gabriel what the items were, instead of telling him what they were, and to our surprise, he could actually say the words, albeit a little muffled. But we knew clearly that he knew what the things were. You should hear when he says "bus" or "watch". The emphasis on the "ss" and "ch" are very pronounced.

We try our best to show him and tell him new things as often as possible, to ensure his vocabulary is large and knowledge expansive. This should also ensure his repertoire is not limited to just the usual things kids learn. Hopefully he will be able to do some algebraic math by 4 years old too. Fred's dreaming of that already. I overheard him trying to teach Gabriel a little French too. "Ah, Bay, Say, Day, Ooh..."

Whatever goes on, he's still our little bundle of joy every single day..

Going to Malaysia again

Whee...

We are going to Malaysia again for a short trip back to Mummy's home. It's actually Uncle Handsome Lau's wedding and we cannot miss it for sure! Uncle Lau is actually based in London, but want to have children, so he must get his license to have children from his parents.

I've been sick for a while, thus you haven't seen any updates. Actually, since we got back from Austria, I've not been updating very much since I was so busy catching up with my cousins and all the toys that I missed. Especially Gerry the Giraffe. These days, I sleep holding (if not strangling) him around the neck.

I've made a lot of progress since then and I'm already mimicking people around.. much like a parrot. I simply love to call Daddy, "FRED"... hee hee.. When Mummy shouts for him, I do the same... "FRED!!!"...

Apart from that, things have been pretty hectic for Mummy and Daddy too. Mummy has stopped feeding me to sleep and I now can sleep on my own, with a little cuddling with Mummy and me holding Gerry. Of course, there are still times I refuse to put my head down..

See you all soon!

Having fun, as usual..

Hi!! Hallo!! How are you, everyone?? Long time no see Uncles and Aunties!



Mummy wanted me to put these pictures up cos she thought I was cute in them.


"Aaaaaahhhhhhhh"



I was actually screaming "yeahhhhhhh" cos I was having so much fun at Kor Kor Evan's 4th Birthday Party!

Here's a picture of me having a conversation with Kor Kor Joshua.


See you all real soon!

Pictures

Some wild flowers Fred took in Vienna. They are really pretty and I wish there are more of them around. Sadly in Singapore they are labelled as weeds and you know what happen to weeds, right? How sad...





And some not very wild ones he took from flower stalls we see all over Vienna.





And from flower beds in the many many parks we visited.





Of course from the stalls in Nashmarkt. Wonderful display of colours which will definitely tempt many potential customers.









He took tonnes of pictures which I have yet found time to look through. I am still at card number 3 out of 20, I think. Patience, patience... that is the mother of all virtues. :)
