30 Months Today

My Baby Girl all grown up

My dear babygirl,

Alhamdullillah, another milestone has been reached. Time seems to fly so fast and you such a chatterbox now....with attitude! Since you have already taken over the family TV room and the hallway with all your toys, mummy prefers none of your toys to be in mummy & daddy's room but you keep on bringing little knick knacks into our room. One night I told you to stop bringing your toys into our room, you looked rather disappointed but obediently picked up your toys and headed towards the door. Before closing the door, you said cheekily "Bye Gurlfren!"

Early this month, you did your first 'wee' or as you call it "she'she" on the toilet. Well done baby girl. I think the potty training is going well, so far, so good. As usual we went over to Grandma's and you surprised me. I do not expect you to know the days of the week at this age but funnily enough you seem to know one day of the week. Your favourite day. The day you get to spend an educationally 30 minutes in the car with Grandma. Your Toddler Group day. You kept on telling Grandma, On Wednesday, Mia go school okay."

Since you were born, we mainly used the English language around you but now, as you have grown older, we mix our words, sometimes mummy & daddy speak to you in English and Malay. You are sloly catching on to some malay words. You like saying "Karang" and "Setajap". Its so cute. This month you came up with a self-made word. We were out and about and when it was time to go home, as I was driving into our simpang and you said, "Don't want go home, I want go SINA." I just smiled to myself, knowing you were trying so hard to use the right word.

This month, you have learnt how to draw a perfect circle and number one. I think the application on mummy's i-touch that daddy downloaded helps with control of tracing . Mummy is also very proud of you this month as you have finally accomplished Daytime potty training. Since you sleep with us in our bed, I dont want to risk you 'making an accident' at night while you sleep. So, you still wear diapers when u sleep.

After spending the morning with grandpa & grandma, you came home with a new antic. You started saying, "Mummy, shum shum", then you would grab my head and sniff my cheek. Rupanya you learnt to 'cium' the malay way. Its so cute. Now our goodbye ritual would be, Salam-kiss-hug and shum!

This is what she gets up to when she's bored

Every weekend, since mummy doesn't work, I try to entertain you some way of the other. Earlier this week, I brought you to watch your first sunset at Jerudong beach. You seemed to have enjoyed just sitting there eating your keropok whilst the wind was blowing through your hair. This weekend, we spent in the kitchen making pizza, unfortunately you were too tired after spending the day with your cousins. I love you my sweetums!!!!
