See the line?? Apparently he woke up and got himself stucked in between the cot (this is what I guessed as I was still in my dreamland when it happened).
Recently Chunquan bought some equipment for home studio photography and so we took some cool pictures with the kids. Personally I loved this photo... Jamie's gentle smile & Jeremy's cheeky look! Right papa?
Caught Jeremy signing this "sleepy" sign that I taught him months ago. Two important signs that I taught him are, sleep & milk !! Isn't it wonderful to be able to communicate with a baby using sign language?
Since gonggong & popo were away for a holiday trip to China, so I brought the children to Lisa's house for a swim instead. This was also Jeremy's 1st swimming experience. He had a wonderful time in the pool while Jamie happily enjoyed playing with her cousin and was so relunctant to get out of the pool, lol!!
Got this VCD from Levine free! The children had fun watching it! I find Brainy Baby has very good educational values as it teaches about colors, music, english, right & left brain, numbers, alphabets etc in a fun, lively and interactive manner.
This is one of the "forbidden" pictures that I'm not allowed to put up at my blog... but I simply love this expression...couldn't resist not putting it up!
And tonight we have finally settled Jamie's new single sized bed and passed her baby cot to Jeremy , yea!
So Jamie will be learning ballet on every Sunday starting next week onwards. Apparently I enrolled her for a trial lesson today to see if she is keen in learning ballet or not. After few attempts of seeking confirmation from her, the answer she gave was a "yes!" Can't wait to see how she looks like in her tutus and pointe shoes!
I can't believe Jeremy is now 9 months old. It seems like time spend with him passes faster than time spent with Jamie when she was an infant. Oh gosh! I'm going to miss his babyhood soon :(
This is his usual pastime... happily digging into the box of mini boardbooks, looks front & back of each books before throwing it as far as he can! What a mess!!
4 days after Jamie's toilet trained... she finally pass motion not into the diaper but potty!!! **hippie hurray!!** This really calls for a celebration!! And she will have her wish granted....4 Super Stars & moon !!
Now that Jamie can pass urine into the potty, she is now being challenged to pass motion into the potty as well. I said to her................
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me : Jamie, do you want these bright musical stars to be on the wall next to your bed? ***********************************************************
Jamie : Yes! ***********************************************************
Me : But you have to poo poo into the potty first, ok? ***********************************************************
Jamie : Yes ***********************************************************
Me : So where are you going to poo poo ? ***********************************************************
Jamie : ...in the potty! ***********************************************************
Me : **leaping with joy**** The above wallables can be found here!
Jeremy suddenly had running nose in the wee hours (suspecting he got it from CQ who is sick 2days ago) and the next thing I knew was, he's ill!! Without delay, I rushed him to the paed's clinic at Mount Alvernia. His appetite and milk intake has obviously taken a dip. Heartache to see him so unwell and not his usual self... haiz just hope that the virus will not pass on to any of us at home. [Updated on 2 Sept, 4pm : Jamie is now confirmed having running nose since this morning! And that's 3 now ;-( ]
*1st time sick @ 9mois
Today probably is one of my greatest satisfaction so far.... achievement in helping Jamie to be potty trained. YES! She finally allow herself to pass urine in the potty the entire afternoon till bedtime, 3 times!! How I did it? Well, I simply encouraged and with lotsa of lotsa of patience and understanding. Of course also with the help of this little gadget which captivated her so much! :D
A friend introduced this portable boys' potty to me few days ago which she has already placed an order with Amazon. I'm rather amazed by this little gadget and told her that she can consider passing this to me 2years later when Jeremy is capable of using it.
Here, I find my own sanity's world to recap all the children's developmental's progress as well as thoughts to share. Jamie, our first born, has turned 17, 9 years after I started this blog. Followed by Jeremy, turning 15 coming December. Joshua, the youngest in the family, just turned 11yo. Time flies ! I have just managed to retrieve access to this maiden blog after 9 long years of inactivity LOL
