Aaron - 11 months old

Aaron is one active boy. Cannot stop moving, and crawls really fast. He's also very determined and persistent. Here's him trying to catch up with his jie-jie, who had scurried up to the top of the swirly slide.

Nadine - 41 months old

At 41 months old, Nadine is a real smart aleck. She comes up with the most unexpected lines that stun Daddy and Mummy. Here are some:


Mummy: Nadine, I told you when we're outside you must hold my hands.
Nadine: But we're inside the shop!


Watching Alvin & the Chipmunks
Nadine: Alvin is naughty. Simon is not naughty
Daddy: So do you want to be Alvin or S
Nadine: But I'm a girl!


Flipping through a book on cake decorations
Nadine: Mummy, you bake me a castle cake
Mummy: Erm ..... how about when you're old enough, I send you to baking class. Then you can bake me a cake?
Nadine: Ok ...... but you're old enough. You can bake me a cake already!


Sharing a coke with Daddy, and Daddy taking a long sip from the coke
Nadine: Daddy, stop drinking. You're still fat!

Hair cut

Aaron's hair has grown quite long. The last time we brought him to a salon, he moved so much that the hairdresser did not dare to cut his hair, and told us to try on our own at home. So we did. And now, it's time to cut his hair again. So lecheh. So much easier with girls, just keep it long. Nadine only had her first hair cut when she was almost 3.

It's almost impossible to stop Aaron from moving. After cutting his fringe, with much difficulty, Mummy gave up.

While Daddy thinks that the hair cut is "ah keong" - whatever that means, many pple who saw him in church today think he's stylo! Mummy thinks so too.

Aaron loves to eat

Whenever he sees people eating, he'll want a bite too. He loves to eat, and loves to try all kinds of food.

In this video, he's savoring a handful of rice that he's grabbed from Nadine's plate.

Ironing

Nadine's finally recovered from her stomach flu, and is once again, her usual active self. Thank God!

Today, Mama saw Nadine imitating Bibi ironing with a mini board meant for ironing collars and sleeves. Nadine was "ironing" hankies. So Mama decided to go find a toy ironing set for her. And she found it in a neighhourhood shop!

Nadine loves her new ironing set! Actually, she loves to help Bibi with household chores. Wonder if that means she will actually help with housework in future!
