Weekend Getaway




It was rare but we could actually take leave on the same dates at a week's notice and we decided to make a quick dash to Langkawi.  We travelled quite a bit alone with Caleb, but since Dylan arrived on the scene, we travelled as a pack (with the larger family).  We finally plucked up the courage and ventured 2 on 2.  No regrets!!  (Perhaps only 1 - wished that it could last forever) 
That's us at the highest point in Langkawi.  We took quite a scary "Caleb"Car Ride up but the view was worth it.  I think it was quite a technological feat to build the cable car towers.




Having fun at the plunge pool in the villa





The kids... rather all of us enjoyed the villa, especially the kids.  It was fun spending time togethe doing nothing much at all.  I don't quite buy that "quality time" theory.  Most of our pictures are in and around the villa because that's where we spent the most part of our time.


The beach was literally a stone's throw from our back door

Dylan had fun in the bath too, but nothing like having one custom made

Food was pretty good too

Adventures at Kota Kinnabalu

    Last weekend, we went to Kota Kinnabalu for a short break. It was a really enjoyable break for all of us.... and best of all, we got to spend time together ;-)
    Many firsts occurred during this holiday.
    1) Auntie D got pick-pocketed for the 1st time.... thank God someone caught the pick-pocket, and she got back her wallet intact.
    2) It was Dylan's first trip on a small speed boat.... we had to take a speed boat from the mainland, to a small island off shore for better waters for swimming, snorkelling and sand play. Dylan enjoyed the boat ride immensely. Look, doesn't he look like the wind is putting him to bed?


All of us getting a little tanned from the sun...

Caleb, being buried in the sand by papa...

Our little dino drinking coke...

3) The kids got to feed the fish and swim among the fishes. Caleb even saw the fishes swimming past him using his goggles ;-) Come to think of it, Papa ran away from the fish coz they attacked him while he was carrying the bread in the water!


4) Auntie D, Mummy and Caleb tried para-sailing for the very first time. Caleb was the bravest of us 3 .... the boy really knows no fear, and was rearing to go from the start, despite being told he was going to be suspended in mid-air like Pooh in a hot-air balloon! I think mummy was the most scared of all. All the possible came to mind.... Having said that, the ride was really quite safe, and we all had a good time. After Caleb came down from the para-sail, he said. "that was really fun.... can I go para-sailing again?"



4) It was the first time Caleb fell asleep at the dinner table while eating (he actually had a mouth full of food, and we had to wake him up to finish chewing!). I guess he had a really good time at the beach playing sand and swimming, and after all that fun (and no nap that day), he was quite tired by dinner time. He went from talking incessantly at the top of his lungs one minute, to sleeping on the table in the next minute! ;-)

Happy 82nd Birthday Tai Por!

It was Tai Por's 82nd birthday last Sunday, and Dylan was all smiles as he celebrated with her.... it was kinda like a joint celebration (a 2nd birthday celebration for Dylan), since Tai Por couldn't make it down to his 1st birthday party due to the rain.

He was certainly in the mood for smiles that day..... ;-)

Dylan's 1 !!

It's amazing how time flies... it's been a year since Dylan was born, yet it seems like just yesterday when we came home together from the hospital.... the 4 of us.

The kids have had a great year, learning to love, learning to share, and learning to put the other before themselves. Of course there have been quarrels, fights and a fair amount of tears, but then they wouldn't be siblings if there weren't all these, right?

Dylan has grown so much over the last couple of months, and we celebrated his 1st birthday 2 weeks ago with a birthday bash.... He must have sensed that there was something going on that day, coz with all the excitement, he only took a 10 min nap throughout the entire day! Imagine how tired he was when we finally blew out the candles and cut the cake ;-) He promptly went to sleep after, and reappeared much happier a little later ;-)

Water Babies!!




    Both Caleb & Dylan love splashing about in the pool. It's wonderful seeing them so at ease in the water.

    Caleb will be starting his proper swim lessons tom.  Will let you know more about it.

    Kor Khao Lak (Dec 07 - Jan 08)

    We went to Kor Khao Lak, about an hour north of Phuket, to celebrate New Year!  I thought it was one of the best new year celebrations ever!!

    We even got to see a Mermaid!!

      pirates ah har!

      Caleb attended a friend's birthday party in August and the theme was princesses and pirates.... this is our little mean pirate.... ah har!

      Puzzle Mania

      Caleb has a fascination with puzzles.... he loves the challenge of a new puzzle, and the satisfaction of being able to complete it. He may not be patient enough for art & craft, colouring, or lego, but somehow, puzzles are different.

      He's even managed to convince his granny to buy him all the puzzles in the series..... When he goes through puzzle mania, he covers the whole bedroom floor with the completed puzzles before nap time.

      Photos from Dylan's first month celebration

      I know this is a little late, but I wanted to record some of the photos from Dylan's first month celebrations....
        Obviously, the star of the show didn't know that he was the reason we were having a party..... coz he was more than contented just sleeping.....
      While he was sleeping.... we were feasting on seafood (not that he could really have some, even if he was awake!?!), with a wonderful view of the sunset....


      And of course the ABCD team in blue (Dylan's not in the pic, coz he's asleep... but he's also in blue ;-))


      Last but not least, not forgetting the cakes, cupcakes and gift boxes we had to celebrate with friends, family and colleagues....(ok, so maybe mummy went a bit overboard with all the blue stuff....;-))... No time for red eggs this time round.....




      Caleb's beloved Di Di Dylan

      How time has flown by. The days have turned quickly into months, and Caleb's initial apprehension and jealousy (It's not all about me anymore!) when Dylan was born, has turned into a brotherly love so sweet, filled with lots of hugs and kisses.

      Here are a few pics of Dylan when he was first born:



      Caleb coped with Dylan's arrival bravely, and turned to his "best friend".... his papa.... when he grappled with issues about why he now had to share mummy with someone else. Here is a snippet of their conversation: 

      Caleb: Papa, why does mummy have to feed Di Di?
      Papa: Because Di Di has to drink mummy's milk.
      Caleb: Why does Di Di have to drink mummy's milk?
      Papa: Because only mummy makes milk for Di Di.... Wait a minute... let me check, maybe Papa has milk for Di Di?? Do you think papa has milk for Di Di?
      (Caleb laughs...)
      Caleb: No..... Maybe I have milk for Di Di???  
      (Caleb lifts up his T-shirt and checks.... then chuckles.... )
      Caleb: No, I also don't have any milk for Di Di.
      Papa: So I guess mummy has to feed Di Di, yah?

      Nowadays, Caleb has only hugs and kisses for his brother (other than the occasional grouchiness when he wakes up from his nap ;-)), and is a great source of comfort for Dylan.

      Some illustrations if I may:

      Dylan: (crying his lungs out in the car)
      Caleb: Di Di don't cry, Kor kor is here, ok? Kor Kor sitting next to you. Kor Kor sing to you... you don't cry.... (Caleb starts his rendition of "Jesus loves me this I know") 
      or
      Caleb: Di Di don't cry.... if you cry anymore, Kor Kor going to take ruler and smack your backside!

      Dylan: (crying again)
      Caleb: Mummy, I think Di Di is hungry. I think you better give Di Di milk.
      or
      Caleb: Di Di, don't cry... I tell mummy to give you milo or apple juice from her tummy, ok? 


      Okie, enough of child talk, more pics of the boys:

      The next holiday - Med Cruise


      This post is almost a year after the last. With facebook, I thought that there was no longer a need for this blog but as I was going through the previous posts with Caleb, I realised that they marked many milestones in our lives. Now that Dylan has joined the fold, Andrea and I decided (rather Andrea insisted) that we should keep this blog going....

      I've recovered from that bout of illness. Actually, I was up and running by the time the last post was up. But Mama and Papa have been real busy and haven't found time to post more new pics. They did find time to bring me to the mall.

      The HFMD gang!

      You must wonder why I've been so silent for such a long time? Well, over the last 1 month, I've been down with diarrhoea (and a rather sore and painful butt), and then after I recovered from that, I got HFMD :-( I was house bound for quite awhile, but lucky for me, my Uncle Alex had HFMD too, so we got to spend quality time together chilling out at home.... and of course I got to spend time with my papa too, coz he stayed home to look after me ;-)

      The HFMD gang hanging out at home ;-)What did we do to entertain ourselves after we got over the initial fever, discomfort and pain from the ulcers? Lots of running around at home, watching TV/baby signing time, playing ball, drinking cold drinks and snacking (this is the only time mommy allowed me to drink all the cold stuff I wanted, eat ice-cream, and even eat snack on all sorts of crackers. I didn't even have to eat my proper meals ;-))Ok, so Mommy couldn't resist taking a picture of my rash as it was developing.....

      And of course, the highlight of each day was going for "walk walk", and getting my daily dose of fresh air. We had to sneak out though, make sure we didn't meet anyone in the lift, and I wasn't allowed to touch anything other than my car.... Didn't even have a chance to stop and say hi to any of my friends....

      Oh well, it wasn't all miserable. I managed to spend time with papa and mommy coz I gave them a fever too, so they had to stay home as well ;-)

      Investigating dustbins....

      Recently, I've been fascinated with dustbins and throwing rubbish away.... Here I am investigating what people actually place into the dustbin...

      My Tai Por's 80th Birthday Party in KL

      Last month, I did my first road trip to KL for my Tai Por's 80th birthday party. The journey wasn't too bad.... I ate most of the way there, and slept for the last 1 hour of the journey ;-) What did I do there other than celebrate Tai Por's birthday? Well, there was lots of eating (basically we hopped from one coffeeshop/restaurant to another) ..... and shopping.... and I got to stay up really late..... :-P Also, we visited by great-granduncle and auntie, and I got to play with their "dog dog". These are some pics of our trip....

      " title="external link"> What are chairs made for?

      In our endeavours to teach Caleb that chairs were made for sitting (to watch TV, read a book etc), we got him a musical chair. I guess he had other ideas about what chairs were made for... here's his first encounter with the chair.....

      The many things you can do with one japanese soup bowl....

      Last month, we went to Sushi Yoshida for Saturday lunch. There, I discovered that there are actually many things you can do with a japanese soup bowl....

      The actual day....

      We had a 2nd celebration on my actual birthday on 1st Dec. Nothing grand or anything like that.... I went out with my Tai Por for lunch at one of my favourite restaurants (Crystal Jade), and then we had some cupcakes as a pseudo-birthday cake :-) I love eating cupcakes... they're yummy.... and not too sweet ;-)

      My 1st birthday

      I celebrated my first birthday with a birthday bash 3 weeks ago. Although I wasn't sure why there were so many people around, and what all the fuss was all about, I sure enjoyed myself eating and playing with my friends. Here are some pics.....

      Sentosa

      Early in November, we spent a Sunday at Sentosa... that was my first trip there, and we had loads of fun at the beach...
      See.... I'm a survivor... I managed to brave the dessert (with all the sand and heat)....
      After mission "dessert storm", we went straight for the swimming pool, which was definitely a lot less salty than the sea....

      Finally, after a few laps in the pool, I finally retired to our room for siesta time and had a good snooze before we left for lunch... ;-) What an enjoyable sunday it was :-)

      First words....

      I thought I'd take this time to pen down some of my thoughts about Caleb's first few words, so that maybe he can read this when he is older.

      The past 11 months have just been amazing. Time has really flown by, and Caleb has gone through the different stages of cooing, vocalising, babbling, and now, saying a few comprehensible words. As first time parents, we used to listen intently at every sound that he made, wondering whether that would his first words to us. Every mamamamamamama and papapapapapapa sounded like he was calling out to his mama and papa, even though I'm quite sure he was just babbling and not specifically calling us at all. :-)

      We were quite blessed that although he couldn't talk yet, Caleb picked up a few signs quite early on, such as indicating that he wanted more, and that he wanted to eat. This certainly took away some of the frustration that came with us not understanding what he wanted, for both us and for him as well. You must understand that I'm not a strong advocator of allowing your child to watch TV too early on in life (bad eyesight, future cough potato etc), but I must say that this video really helped us to learn an easy means of communication, which he is now using more and more. He would watch his favourite video (baby signing times) over and over again. I once tried to see if he would lose interest if I blocked his view. But when I stood in front of the TV, he tried to move his body left and right to see past me, and eventually when he was not successful, he climbed out of his bumbo chair and changed position so that his view was unobstructed ;-)

      This last 1 week, Caleb started to say a few more things (which is what inspired this post). He initially could only say "nan nan" and sign "milk" when he wanted some milk, "mum mum" and sign "eat" when he was hungry, and say "Mmmmm", when I showed him a picture of a cow. However, over the last few days, he's surprised us with "bird"while we were driving along the road, and "dog" when we saw one while we were in the lift. Initially, I passed it off as a coincidence that the syllables he was saying sounded like those words, but then he kept pointing intently at the animals, and he wanted me to acknowledge that I knew what he was referring to. Seems like he really loves animals, doesn't it? ;-)

      Our only complaint (haha!!!), between Caleb's papa and myself, is that he seems to have learnt to call all these pet animals before "papa" and "mama"! He only screams "pa" or "ma" in desperation.... :-) Oh well, I guess you can't really be picky about how your child develops, just to thank God for each tiny step that he takes, each word that he says, each breath that he takes, that God has blessed him richly with good health, a happy disposition, and a big smile on his face :-)

      Caleb's mom

      Thank you che che Audrey


      It's not my birthday yet but I've already started opening my birthday presents ;-) Thank you Che Che Audrey for picking out this very challenging and colourful stacking toy for me, and also for the cute baju. Can you see? I'm practising my hand-eye co-ordination and fine motor skills :-) Che Che, I miss you so much. When are u coming back to play with me? Everytime I see your picture on papa's computer, I call out to you, and smile, and try to talk to you, but mummy says that you can't come over to play just yet, and that I need to be patient.......

      Che Che Audrey, I heard from mummy that you are not feeling well. Hope that your itch goes away very soon and that you feel much better. I'll pray to Jesus tonight that he will make you better so don't worry ;-) Sayang sayang, ok?

      Lots of love, xxoo Caleb

      " title="external link"> feeding myself part 2

      When at first you don't succeed, try again... and again :-) Thank you Aunty Jasmine for the very thoughtful bent fork and spoon for self-feeding, and also to Jayden for showing me that this can actually been done by someone our size ;-) Maybe I'll set up a Char Kuay Teow stall when I grow up......?

      " title="external link"> Feeding myself

      At Jayden's party last week, we sat together and had tea/snacks. As I was watching him eat, I thought to myself.... wow.... what a big boy Jayden is, he can feed himself already.... I gotta try that sometime too ;-) So when I went home that evening, I got some inspiration.... I insisted that mummy let me try to eat on my own...

      Jayden's first birthday party

      2 weekends ago, I attended my friend Jayden's first birthday party. It was a really fun party and there was so much to eat and play with. Here's a picture of Jayden with his really nice birthday cake.... (by the way, Jayden is the one in the bear suit ;-))

      At the party, there was this really cool play area for kids. Check out the different modes of transportation available at the party.....
      I started with a boat ride first....
      Then proceeded on to a doggie ride. I even tried out the roller coaster (soory no pics).....


      We even got to take home a bear each... ;-) I spent part of the journey home getting to know my new furry friend.... talking with him, giving him kisses, and telling him about his new home :-)

      " title="external link"> Bathing is fun!

      It's not even my birthday yet and I've already started opening my presents.... thank you Gong Gong and Por Por for my new car ;-) Doesn't it just look so cool?? I've gone round the estate a few times and have even driven onto the main road outside. People sure look at you differently when you're driving a nice new car.... :-)

      My favourite video













      My favourite video is Baby signing time. I can watch this video over and over again without feeling bored... I clap my hands and dance to the music, and thoroughly enjoy myself :-) Mummy says that this is the only video that I am totally engrossed in.... not postman Pat, nursery rhymes, elmo (to these, I usually get up and crawl away within 5 minutes).....only BABY SIGNING TIME!!!

      Carousel ride

      I had my first Carousel ride at Paragon after my Grandma & Grandpa's birthday lunch 2 sundays ago. We happened to chance upon this merry-go-round and I was really excited! Grandpa put me on it and I refused to let go.... so he had to walk round and round while the music played and the carousel brought me up and down and around... I think all in all we went round 5 times, until Grandpa was really dizzy... ;-)

      Papa's turned 30!

      In celebration of Papa's birthday, we went for high tea last weekend at the Marriot, and in full celebration style, we ate and ate until we couldn't move after that. Here are some pics we took ...



      " title="external link"> Diving in...

      I love swimming...

      Lately, I've given up my swimming ring for arm floats. This way, I can get around a lot better.... Papa says I'm a really brave boy, coz I've learnt how to jump in on my own ;-)

      Food glorious food!

      Since my trip to Hawaii, I've learnt to eat a lot more things. Thought I'll share with you a little more what my new favourites are....

      SNACKS



      Cheerios and Goldfish are my new favourites... and of course there is still teddy puffs :-)



      These have become my favourite snacks in the car. As they say.... Don't leave home without them...

      " title="external link"> Dancing to the music!

      Recently, mummy and daddy bought me this new table so that I can stand up to play. It plays different kinds of music and songs when I push different buttons and levers.

      Initially, I was only interested in opening and closing the purple door. However, today I discovered that the banjo has this cool spinning thing which makes me dizzy.... and when I spin the rattle, it sings ABC....

      I really like the music.... see, I'm even dancing to it :-)

      I'm a big boy now....

      How do I know I'm a big boy now?

      Well, I can eat toddler's cereal..... :-)


      I discovered that there are 2 ways to eat breakfast cereal. You can have it with milk, or you can eat it plain (and hard and crunchy) .....

      Friday, September 15, 2006

      Caught in the act!


      After my dinner, while no one was watching, I sourced out more snacks.....


      " title="external link"> More, more, more.....

      When I get really excited about eating, here's how I ask for more......

      I'm always hungry...

      I've got a ginormous appetite... or so I've been told....
      My daily menu goes something like this:

      When I wake up at about 6+am, I get my fill of milk from mummy

      Then at about 8am, I have my breakfast, which consists usually of 2 tablespoons of oatmeal or barley (water not yet added to the cereal) and some fruit (today it was 1/2 a peach)
      After that, I steal some of my papa's breakfast on his way out.... I usually look hungrily at him until he shares his bread with me (he's beginning to suspect that my mummy and Auntie Sri are not giving me enough to eat ;-))
      Then, before and after my nap, I have more milk

      For lunch, I either have pumpkin with sweet potato, or something else like a cheese or mushroom toast that mummy fixes
      Then it's nap time again and after that, I get rewarded with more milk

      For dinner, it's a bowl of porridge with some veggies and meat, (below is what I had for dinner tonight)

      Followed by desert of some fruit.

      Then before bed, I have a bit more milk and then turn in for the night.

      Does that really sound like that much? ....... I keep telling my mummy that I'm a growing boy.... ;-)

      discovery center

      Lately, I just discovered a play area downstairs which has lots of fun stuff to do... I can watch the water fountain, play "masak masak" in the water, and even climb over rocks and boulders ;-)


      Best of all, the water isn't very deep so I can go crawling around and feel the sand, stones and even pick up bugs which have dropped into the water :-)

      Oh yah, forgot to mention... check out my new sun suit....

      Swimming


      On my way to the swimming pool,


      to get some exercise, and some sun and fun :-)

      Brushing my 2 teeth



      I have 2 teeth at the bottom, and 2 new ones coming out on the top, so thought it was time to start keeping them sparkling clean ;-)

      My new car....

      My mummy and daddy bought me a new car so that I can enjoy the scenery, and see things the way everyone else sees them.....
      OK, so maybe i got a bit tired after all that visual stimulation.....

      My New Fan!!

      That's my Pa Pa! He looks exhausted!!
      But if you think his eye bags are bad, wait till you check out Mom's Panda Eyes!
      In the past month, I've learnt how to keep my Pa & Mom up at all times of the night!!
      When Pa & Mom are tired, I know that nothing lifts their spirits more than hearing me bawl!!
      Don't you think I have my Mom's big almond-shaped eyes?? I really love my Mom!!

      These shuuzze are made for walking... problem is, I haven't quite figured out how to sit up on my own!!
      Thanks Aunty Fran for the cool shuuzze :O
