Alphabet mania!

Recently, I have been crazy about books and flash cards. No longer show much interest in my toys, except when it comes to 'feeding' my toy elephant, dog, giraffe and lion! I like to sit and flip thru the books, and ask yeye or mummy by pointing when I dont understand some pictures or letters.

Now, I can say quite a few alphabets when shown the letters either on books, cards, newspapers or signs along the road - A,C,M,O,R,S,W,X. Can also recognise majority of the remaining alphabets by pointing to the correct one when asked.

Yeye finds it very amusing to bring me to the back of the ABC market, and asking me to read simple signs on the electric or water meter such as SR 10, M 11, etc.. meaningless yes, but think they find it funny to hear me go M Yi1 Yi1 like I really knew how to read! hahaha :) so bo liao..

Not bad for a 15 mth old toddler huh?

OCD, or just a cleanliness freak??

Mummy's scared that I am displaying OCD traits!!why?? 2 incidents...

Incident No 1

Went to Ma2 Ma4's house yesterday as usual. Papa and mummy left me there in the afternoon while they went to sort out the new kallang flat, and when they came back, Ma2 Ma4 reported that I had been drawing and playing with pens, when suddenly, I accidentally drew a line on my leg. I didnt like it too much, and according to ma2 Ma4, my face immediately change. But cos I was not at home, I didnt cry and once ma2 ma4 clean my leg, I was ok already.

Incident No 2

Mummy was showing me my favorite pamphlet - the OCBC one with pictures of granny, grandpas, babies, etc.. when she decided to be funny and test out something nai nai told her a few wks ago. She turn to the page with the granny and grandpa, and showed me the spot on their hair which had torn off and asked me : How come like this?? I look at it for abt 30 sec, then look at mummy, and started to CRY like I just fell down and knock my head! Mummy was so shocked at my reaction she quickly promise to find me a new one and I immediately stop crying!

Cause for alarm?? Maybe I just like things neat and tidy! hehe.. :)

What to do with a ball?

So far, I can bounce a ball, throw a ball and kick a ball. Oh, I can also roll a ball. All that got boring, so I invented a new game : ferrying a ball to and fro by 'giapping' it with my neck!

East Coast Park!

Went cycling at ECP with papa and mummy today! Got a bit scared at first cos its my first time, but after a while, warmed up enough to laugh and enjoy the ride, and even relaxed enough to fall asleep!



How big is east coast park? THIS BIG!!

My Favorite position these days - clinging onto mummy's legs!

I can sleep anywhere... anytime..


Poor papa had to cycle back with 1 hand on my chest to prevent me from swaying forward and knocking my head on the crossbars

Toto and the Singapore Flyer

Mummy and papa have been on leave the whole week. TOday, they brought me for a family outing to the Singapore FLyer. The original plan was to go in the evening, so that we could see both the day scenery, and also catch the night views! of cos, things didnt work out quite so well, as it started to pour shortly after our flight 'took off'!

The rain didnt dampen my moods as I wasnt that interested in the scenery, I was a lot more captivated by another 15mth old little girl who was also in the same capsule! Remember my fetish for chasing little friends my age? Hehehe :)







Taking a walk with my lantern in Millenia walk after the Ride!

Toddler-To!

I am officially a TODDLER!!! yay yay yay!! As of these few days, my main mode of transport ard the house has been MY LEGS!! yeap! not my knees and hands, but my legs! Not too bad considering that mummy has been going on and on about how retarded I am wrt motor milestones since I only started crawling properly at 12 mths! :)

Now, I dont even like both my hands to be held.. if mummy asks nicely, I might allow her to hold one hand when we are out. (Note from mummy : Toto only lets me hold her hands if I threaten to carry her when she insists on walking alone!)

When in shopping centres, I like to celebrate my new found independence by making bee lines for other kiddos wandering around and trying to hug and kiss them (YES, I am THAT friendly!!), and chasing them in disappointment when they run off in fright due to my overzealous enthusiasm! Mummy, papa, yeye and nai nai dunno to be happy that I am such a gregarious outgoing child, or to be worried that I just might be a little too hyper!

I love kiddy rides!!

I got to take my first kiddy ride when I was about 6 mths old and just learnt to sit. Frankly, it was a waste of money cos 1) I cant recall a damn thing 2) I cried to be out within half a min according to mummy!

Recently, i've learnt to appreciate such rides a lot more.. so much so that i insist on sitting on the ride whenever we walk past one in the shopping centre! And no... sitting in it is not enough, it has to be moving, and with music blasting! I even know where the coin slot is, and will signal mummy to quickly put in the coin for the fun to start! Mummy has warned yeye and nai nai to limit such rides so that I dont start taking this for granted!

Anyway, here are some pics taken on an outing to GWC!

my very own ride!


Laughing with mummy!


Mummy loves this pic cos I have such a mischievious grin on my face!


Completely mesmerised by the rabbits and hamsters


Mummy's idea of fun - plonking me in places I cant climb out of!
