Ah Mah did it again!

As Ah Mah checked the 4D page on Teletext, she calmly mentioned that she struck again. I think there is a fine line between confidence and arrogance and since Ah Mah has struck 4D so many times, I guess she has the right to be arrogant. I am elated that it is my number that brought her wealth again. Yes, my birth weight which registered 3.175kg. Although Ah Mah has struck with this sequence before on May 9th, she decided just last week that she should buy this number again. Talk about lucky, you cannot beat my Ah Mah.

Goodbye Uncle Leslie & Aunty Alina

We were over at Uncle Gary's house tonight to firstly celebrate Uncle Leslie's birthday and also to spent some time with Uncle Leslie and Aunty Alina before they head back to Toronto. You would remember they recently had their wedding at Four Seasons Hotel and had gone for their honeymoon and now getting ready to go back to work in Toronto. They won't be back next year as they will be visiting Aunty Alina's family in Romania. We wished them all the best and hope that they will have a new friend for me to play with when they come back in 2 years time. Mummy will shop with Aunty Alina one last time on Monday before they fly off the next day.

Sophie the Giraffe

For my 8th month birthday, Mummy bought me a very nice looking teether called Sophie the Giraffe. Apparently Sophie the Giraffe has been a favorite teething toy in France for more than 40 years. This rubber teething toy requires 14 manual steps to take her through to completion - all preformed by hand. For a high production toy, it's quite amazing that this little giraffe is still handmade in the French Alps, just as she has been since 1961. With her natural rubber and non-toxic, food grade paint, Sophie the Giraffe has been safely cuddled for over 40 years! She truly is a French national treasure, stealing the hearts of parents and babies around the globe. Thank you Mummy!

A Splashing Good Time

I finished my 10 swimming sessions at Hwa Xia International and Mummy and Daddy decided it is time I progress to the actual pool. So for the first time today, I swam in the swimming pool at home. We were suppose to swim at Chinese Swimming Club because their children's pool has nice water features and water slides but unfortunately they didn't allow babies due to safety reasons, so we went home to swim instead. Luke decided to join us so we had a good time with him and Uncle Alan. They lent me the crab float so I could swim unassisted. Everyone seemed impressed with me. :)

Finally...teeth!

It has been some weeks now. I haven't been sleeping and eating well and Mummy and Daddy suspected it must be due to my teething problems. Some nights I will cry so much I hardly slept more than 2 hours, which means Mummy and Daddy slept just as little. It must have been a big relieve to them when they discovered that they could feel my teeth this morning. Ye Ye and Nai Nai were just as elated and couldn't stop laughing.
