First Strawberry !!

Bought some strawberries from supermarket and decided to let Samantha to try the taste of it. Well she didnt impress with the taste at the first bite and she walked away. But she kept on asking more and more. Haha..

~~ First taste of strawberry !! Y U M M Y !! ~~

~~ Another bite mummy.. ~~

~~ Hmm.. I'm happy now ~~

Toothbrush set

Samantha now has 7 little teeth! 4 on top, 3 on the bottom!

We though that it was time to graduate her from her previous tooth-cleaning-accessory (washtowel) to a Trainer Toothbrush Set! Here's what it looks like.

There are 3 stages to this set. The first stage consist of the white brush with a soft rubbery (spiked?) head. It looks deceiving, like an ancient weapon or mace, but it is really soft! Plug in the circular guard to prevent choking, and it's ready for any little one.

How did it go? Well.. let's just say that it was really difficult to take it away from her the first few times! We brush her teeth (more like massaging the gums) at bathtime. She then decides to take over herself and starts to gnaw it! hehe.

*munch munch munch*

I guess it's a relief for her itching gums and emerging teeth.
So cute...

Stage 2 may begin sooner than I expect. Look forward to another mini review then!

Christmas is around the corner!

Well.. Christmas is just around the corner! Well, technically it's more than a month away but this hasn't stopped department stores and shopping complexes from putting up Christmas decorations the minute after Deeparaya (Deepavali and Hari Raya merging) this year!

Here's Samantha and Melissa (aka supermom) at Sunway Pyramid. We were walking about the Pyramid and decided to take a look outside. Inside, many workers were rushing to put up some Looney Tunes Themed Christmas decor. Samantha got a kick out of the huge Tweety poster setup! hehe

Meanwhile outside, we saw this roundabout setup! *click* and here's the photo!

Christmas is just around the corner. It's gonna be the Little One's first Christmas!
What an exciting time it will be...
There, see how excited she is when she is around the christmas spirit :p

Now... where are all the Christmas songs!

10 Months and counting

She's reached double digit growth! 10 months to the day! How fast time flies. From Day 1...

till Month 10...

What do you think?

New words..

We're hearing new words (sounds) from the Little One.
"whoa" when she was at Ikano
"bubble" when she was babbling
"mum" when she was hungry.. really hungry
"bao bao bao bao..." when babbling... or is she saying baby? :)
"boo" when she was tinkering with things that she was not supposed to play with
"oh", "wa", "beh" and other various sounds when she's biting her doggie.

She's rather 'talkative' and her vocabulary is increasing...

First Steps!!

Yesterday she took her first steps! All by herself! 5 little steps to move from the middle of the play area to the sofa! WOW!!!

Today, she went a little further, 8 steps to cross 3 alphabets (approx. 3 feet).

She starts with tiny steps then slightly longer steps before reaching Mommy at the other side of the play area! WOW!!!

Hooray for Samantha!
The mobile little one now...

Little Traveller... KL Tower (2)

Postcard anyone?

Doggy! Aaaarrrhh.... busuk busuk!

Yummy!

Little Traveller... KL Tower review

Here's another episode of the Little Traveller! Last weekend we were at the KL Tower! The tallest tower in Malaysia and the 4th tallest communications tower in the world! Here are the pics...

421 meters below the top. Samantha and Melissa.

So that's where they keep all my future money (looking at Menara Maybank).

Everything looks so small from up here!

Looking unimpressed with the Petronas Twin Towers! Hahaha..

One for the album!

Bouncing Gym Ball!

She's really getting a kick out of the big purple gym ball that we have. She used to be sooo small next to it, but now our little one has grown up (a bit) and can stand next to the ball, using it as support! Sometimes when she's frustrated a little, she'll hit it. Sometimes the ball rolls back towards her and gives her a little scare! hehe.

This shot was taken just after she had a hearty, full bellied laugh, when I was bouncing the gym ball on the floor. Ha ha ha... I thought she'd get a tummy ache from all that hard laughing! Now.. to find out how to put videos in this blog.

She's also getting naughty now. Showing tantrums and anger when she doesn't get what she wants or when interrupted in the middle of her plans. We now have to put extra safety measures around the house as she is mobile now. She likes to crawl up to the cabinets and TV and even play around with the speaker volume nobs on the compo!

Samantha, when you grow up, you'll see this! - Daddy. 

Little Traveller... KLCC review

Here's a recent trip to Suria KLCC, the shopping complex at the based of the Petronas Twin Towers, the second tallest building in the world! Malaysia Boleh! Okay, okay.. I'm doing my little bit of patriotic duty. (I wonder if Google Ads will pick this up and display some relevant ads) hehe.

KLCC was all decorated for the Deepavali and Hari Raya celebrations.

One another note, Samantha seems to be inclined towards music. We recently went to a music store to check out some guitars and the helpful sales guy played a little tune on the guitar and even the keyboards. Samantha had that open mouth expression of amazement. Or maybe it was just looking at someone new. Hmm.. something to plan for the future.

Photo updates!

I've updated a few past entries with photos! Finally got them off my Ixus and onto the blog! Do check them out and let me know what you think.

More photos! Hooray!

With a strawberry hairclip. Hmm.. not much hair to clip now :)

Young Explorer!

She had her second swim at my brother's condo pool! This time we didn't have her tweety bird float so I had to be her floatation device as we swam in the big pool!

Fascinated with push toys!
How do I look in my new swimsuit?

There's so much water...

Also, her cousin has lots and lots of toys! My mom kept showing her toys to play with and she couldn't stop exploring! The little one really likes to explore! Her stroller is aptly named CitiSport EDT (Explore Discover Together!)

She now also has a favourite ramble.. something that sounds like ba or bub (as in bubble). :) Occassionally she says 'mum' or even 'mummy'.

Time to get her into some photo or baby contests!! She's a winner in my books :)
