Baby C Wants To Swim Too

Alycia and Sherilyn had their first swimming lesson on Tuesday. Just before they took their nap, I dug out their swimming suits, caps and goggles and laid them on Aly’s bed so that when they got up from their nap, they can hop right into their swimming suits.  Baby who was gallivanting from room to room spotted the bright red Minnie Mouse cap and tried putting it on her head.  We then helped her put the cap on her head and oh my, she looked so hilarious and too cute… and everyone had a real good rib-aching laugh.


Baby now knows how to say pool whenever she hears kids laughing and jumping into the pool, from our room on the 5th floor of the condo. She will also point at the window as she says ‘pool’.

Baby’s speech is progressing well and she will try to say new words each day. I was really shocked when I heard her say ‘tumbler’ as she pointed to her 2 jie jies’ water tumbler in the kitchen yesterday. She could also say ‘tan’ (thanks) whenever she receives something from us. She could also say ‘nana’ (banana), papa (papaya), bear, ball, chair, brer (breast), milk, tub, ‘ket’ (biscuit) and much more. I can’t wait for her to call me mummy (though she can call me mummy when she cries and desperately wants me to carry her) and to speak in sentences 🙂

Our 10th Wedding Anniversary

This year marks hubby and my 10th wedding anniversary. We were registered in the year 1999 and our wedding ceremony was held the following year. How time flies. Hubby once told me that on our 10th wedding anniversary, we would go to the bridal studio to get some nice shots of us and our kids together but that has not materialized yet. Well, I haven’t given this much thought as my mind has been too occupied with other more important and urgent matters. Our wedding wasn’t a dream wedding for me. If I could have it done all over again, I would focus less on the bridal studio wedding pictures (we had spent more than RM10k on that alone!) and spend the money on something else, like getting nice bridesmaid gifts for my bridesmaids and getting nice wedding favors that can be keep-sakes for our guests. We would also use a bigger portion of our budget on our honeymoon, rather than spend it on our hefty wedding dinner.
