Jie-Jie Nadine

Nadine has assumed her role as Jie-Jie pretty well. Whenever she hears Di-Di crying, she'll run into the room, and try and comfort him. She'll go, "sshhh .... sshhh ..... don't cry, it's ok, it's ok ..." Very cute.

Jie-Jie now also knows that we're no longer just Daddy, Mummy and Dine-Dine. We have Di-Di as well. The other day, Mummy bought a box of cupcakes for her. There were 5 cupcakes in the box. She had 2 for breakfast the next day. When Bibi asked her if she wanted anymore, she replied, "no, this for Daddy, this for Mummy, and this for Di-Di!"

But she has her jealous and attention-seeking moments too. She wants Mummy to carry her, sit with her, read to her and pet her to sleep all the time. Mummy tries to spend as much time with her as possible, except for carrying and showering her. The other day, she came to Mummy with puppy eyes, and said, "Mummy shower me please". Broke Mummy's heart. She must have thought pretty long about the sentence, and constructed it properly in her mind first, because she usually says "you" and when she means "me", and doesn't always say "please". Mummy just have to try and spend time with her in other ways.
