His First Word

yu chen had been blabbering his first word for the past few days. despite me being his favourite person, his first word is 'pa pa'. sigh! yp was so proud. after hearing yu chen call 'pa pa', ah gong decided to be ambitious and teach him to call 'ah gong'. of course, he failed. by level of difficulty, the next word should be 'ma ma' mah. as for 'ah gong', guess he will learn to say that around 1 yr old.

en en's spelling results was released yesterday. my goodness, 1 out 5 correct despite revising with her for so many times. i asked her why her results was so bad and guess wat was her answer-'But mummy, daddy was wrong'. it seems that yp had taught her to write 2 words wrongly. give up! moreover, her chinese teacher who is a chinese national proved to be very strict with her writing. ai ai ah yee commented that there were 2 words which looked correct but the teacher marked them wrong as the strokes were a bit out. i guess it's time to send her to chinese lessons.

'Bo Song' Face

peach, a mummy from singaporemotherhood.com july forum, is attempting to make a july babies collage. so she is jioing all the july mummies to send in our darlings' photos. i was trying very hard today to capture a smiley picture of yu chen and guess wat kind of face he showed me. his 'bo song' face! in the end i gave up.

A Cute Visitor from England

today we were having dinner at 'pu tian' with some relatives from malaysia and england. they are yp's third aunty and his cousins. after dinner, they dropped by our house to take a look. yu en and yu chen's cousin, rachel, is from england and she is really a big baby. she is only 17months but she weighs a whooping 15kg. her mother told us that becos of her size and weight, she appears to be older than her actual age. She is a very cute baby with chubby cheeks and curly hair.

Time Flies

i was looking through yu chen's past photos and realise how time really flies. it seemed like yesterday when i was having post natal blues just after delivering yu chen. now he is already 8 months old. How different he look, now and then.

Little Rascal

Nowadays, i observed that Yu Chen is starting to exhibit the traits of a bully. He will grab every golden opportunity to pull his jie jie's long hair and he will give a big tug after grabbing her hair. After that he will release his hand and he will open his palm and look at the hair he has pulled out. Seems to me like he is counting how many strands of hair he has managed to 'detach' from his jie jie's head.

Yesterday, my maid complain to me that Yu Chen had caused her lips to bleed. She said his 'metal' head knocked against her face when she was carrying him and her lips bled.

Aiyo! Yu Chen, u continue behaving like a rascal and no one will want to befriend you.
