Bye Bye our DC!

Daddy, you're in huge trouble, I tell ya! He broke our handy DC which Mommy used ALL the time; and it's his 2nd time in just one year! He fed our last DC with cough syrup... Anyways, attempts were made to resuscitate this poor thing, but it was sadly pronounced dead upon reaching the Canon repair centre :..( Mommy was most sad as it had juuuust passed its warranty period, man!

Below is the last picture taken by this nicely performed device:



Btw, class today was fun, as expected ^ ^

Unanswered

This is a million-dollar-question that remains unanswered till present:
How I can still possibly fit into Kyra's beloved carrier, with NO adjustments needed whatsoever!

Quiet Games

Mommy got me this set of colorful stackling toys some time ago at the Baby Fair, in the hope that her 'mad dog' would eventually sit still and quietly play. Its objective was basically achieved, but I treat'em more like bowls :-)



Another thing, she was rather amazed, if not sad, that my skeleton outfit still fits perfectly fine this year, meaning that I didn't grow much during the past year?!

Apple

Since I started on half-solid foods more than a year ago, I've loved fruits a lot. Most of the time, I was given bananas and apple, the latter being in mashed form. In recent months, they would give me the whole thing so that I get to do more biting and chewing work. Mommy was really grateful that I'm fond of fruits and veges, having a balanced diet.

Water

Wather is still hot, so water is just great quenching my thirst. In a typical day, I drink around 3 or 4 bottles of water. Mommy said she couldn't drink that much herself :-p

Eye Patching

Heard from Mom & Dad that Kyra had some issues with her eyes... For the time being, she needs to patch both of her eyes alternately to train them up, pending further procedures when she reaches 6 months of age.

Surprise Visit

YeeMa and my cousins stopped by Hong Kong for a quick visit on their way to Shanghai. We had great fun playing for a whole day :-]

YeeMa, thank you again for the goodies you got us, esp. the matching books. They are just lovely!

Kids Table & Chairs

Noticing that I've been fond of grabbing pen scribbling in recent weeks, Mom & Dad finally got me a lovely and practical set of table & chairs today. Daddy chose it because the table has a raised edge somewhat preventing pens and crayons from rolling to the ground. Mommy was greatly impressed by his thoughtfulness! The other chair is reserved for my little sis for the time being. Grow up quick and play with me, Kyra~

Birthday of Special Someone

Today was a busy, yet happy day for our family. I started the day with my first official class @ My Gym.



Then, the whole family (all 5 of us) went out for fun at DSSRC (recreation centre for disciplined service staff) for celebrating my caretaker's b-day! She joined our family when Kyra was born. During the past few months, she proved herself as a capable helper with household chores and loved both me & my little sissy :-D

It was actually her first attempt with bowling, but she did great as a first-timer and almost out-performed Daddy who taught her for a few minutes before the game! No wonder why Daddy & Mommy always said she's a talented and smart girl. We then played some other electronic games as well~





At night, we dined at a pizza place thinking that it was one of her favorite foods. We also prepared a little b-day cake for her at home. It was a yummy raspberry chocolate cake and it happened to interest her a lot! I guess she also had a great day ^ ^

1.5 Years Old

I turned 1.5 years old today! During the past few months, I've grown taller and physically stronger. Yet, I also have my own thoughts now and do not quite like to do as told a lot of the times, giving Mommy much headache :-p

Rolling Over - Take 1

Having nothing much to do in the hospital, Kyra had her own fun by doing physical exercise. Mommy got to witness her very first trial of rolling over! In fact, Mommy still remembers the day I flipped over the first time. It's amazing how fast kids grow from bed-bound to crawling to stumbling to running~

Hospital Visit

After suffering from diarrhoea for one week, Kyra had blood in her poopoo. In order to find out what went wrong, Mommy & Daddy had her admitted into hospital as advised by Doc. It was the hospital where she was born, and she was addressed as "Miss Chung (鍾小姐)" on the door label. Mommy had a good laugh on that ^ ^

4 Months Old Kyra

My little sis has reached 4 months old today, wow! She has been drinking a lot more MaMa's milk as compared to my infanthood. Maybe that's why she's bigger than me at the same age. Nurses at gov't MCHC said she's at 97-percentile in terms of both body length & weight, surprising both Mom & Dad ^ ^

Kyra's First Laughs

Apart from outlooks, me & Kyra are also rather unlike as far as personality goes. I've been the happy-silly-giggly kinda kid ever since 3 months old or so, but Kyra has been holding up her emotions since birth. On one hand, she's a brave kid when facing thunder or shots. On the other hand, she didn't show a bit of her happiness. This has been worrying Mommy a whole lot honestly. Kyra's first laughs today was Mommy's best reward in recent months:

My Bumbo

Mommy took out the Bumbo from storage, intended for Kyra's use, but I asked for a later date to pass it over. Really grateful that after a whole year's time, I could fit back in this seater again! I guess it's because I have nice toned buns :-D

Somersault

After a few gymnastics classes, I've been so into somersaults. Seeing things upside down is fun!

Breaking Open

At 17 months, I managed to break open Mom & Dad's door. Achievement to me, but misery to them, HaHaha ^ ^

Who's behind the door?

"Dood Dood"

Somehow, I fell ill and temperature went up again... After numerous fevers during my first 1.5 years of life, I'm totally able to control the digital thermometer in taking my own temperature. This device must've been used a zillion times since I was born, no doubt the best investment made so far~

Hide and Seek

When Mom & Dad returned home, they heard I was sleeping but couldn't seem to find me in the beds. Next time please check out the couch as well! My disguise ability truly impressed them this time~

In fact, I've tricked them before. Last time, my caretaker said I was sleeping; yet, they went everywhere looking for me and still had no clue. After Daddy found me eventually, he broke out laughing!

Understanding Daddy

Today, I got to visit places where Daddy spent most of his time at, being the office and the basketball court:




After a whole year, Daddy's basketball skills are still shitty :-p

Piggy Legs

Kyra took in every bit of Mommy's milk and supplementary formula. She's been growing chubbier lately. Look at her big thighs:
