I meet my 'lao tai po' ...

Who is my 'lao tai po'? This is actually my great great grand mother, who is already 103 yrs old! The name lao tai po came abt when my mummy made a fool of herself at the dinner table one day when I was still inside her tummy. Ye ye and nai nai were discussing what I should call papa's tai po, so mummy unwittingly blurted out - just add a lao in front lor.. lao tai po! (since i am one generation down, so teochews usually just add a 'lao' infront of the term) yeye, nainai and papa laugh until wanna die. oooh and the correct term to use is actually ' xuan2 zu2 mu3' in chinese.

today mummy and papa brought me to meet my great-great-grand ma in person at imperial treasures taka for lunch. She was so happy to finally get to see me and kept talking to me in cantonese which I catch no ball. Nai nai said that she is wishing that I will be a good girl and be a healthy baby. Papa didnt manage to take a picture of me with her though.. so wasted. Hope I will get to see her again this coming CNY when I will be 7 mths old!

Visit to Gong Gong and Ma Ma's house

Nai Nai says its a tradition that I have to visit Gong Gong and Ma Ma's house on my full mth.. must bring red eggs and an ang bao.. in return, I get a red packet from Ma Ma to bless me to become a good and healthy baby! So worth it hor? (esp since the ang bao comes out of Mummy and papa's pocket hehe..)

Hmm.. jiu jiu still looks so uncomfortable carrying me hor.. you can tell this by his perfectly straight arm and ramrod straight sitting posture! I am already more than a mth old.. and perfectly well behaved what! See ye ye laughing at him? hehehe... :) See gong gong.. steady la! Only using one hand to carry me.. and I feel so comfy!

Heads up!

Mummy thinks this picture doesnt look like me at all.. why not? Dont I look sweet?

Here we go... HIYAH!!!! Must PUUUSH up with all my might!

Yay!!! head up for a while..I could actually go higher but my mummy was too slow to capture on camera! wasted!

Phew.. shag la!
