Doctor visits

After the CNY which full of snacks, cold drink, mandarin oranges, and tonnes of delicious food, Samantha has went through difficult times after all the delicious food, ie : fever, cough and flu. We had been visit to her Dr, we called the Dr as her 'kai ma'..(god mother!!) . Her appetite has been reduce lots. Most of time only milk. Thank god! At least she drink milk. We kept all the junk food in the house and no mandarin orange and no juice for time being. Sigh !!

Little Playgroup (2)

Let's start with some sand play.

Hmm.. this goes here...
Thank you mommy...
These are her little shoes. :-) Aren't they cute?

Little Playgroup

Today, Samantha went to her Playgroup. She goes to Playgroup twice a week. This helps her to socialize and learn some skills.

Samantha getting ready at home.

In the car on the way to Church.

Wow.. there's so many things to do here.

Here's the activity list..

One year ago

Here's a blast from the past. Samantha's 1 year old birthday celebration. Ok.. I gotta admit it. I'm browsing the photos and some are just too cute.

:)

New Taxi

First we had the Segway, which balances itself on 2 wheels.

Here's Samantha's version, with the help of Uncle Henry, that puts the Segway to shame. This has twice the amount of wheels (4) and has all round ventilation. It also has a safety cage.





It's powered by a single person (preferably not the person riding it).
Now Samantha travels about (around the house mostly) on her new mode of transportation. What a blast! haha *LOL*


She can even have snacks in it!




Yummy!

A bucket of fun

Here's what you get...

Samantha + KFC Superman Bucket = this photo

*lol* :)

Kawaiiiii!!!

A basket of fun

It's amazing what toddlers can do for fun. Take a simple laundry basket. She can transform this ordinary household item into a barrel.. erm.. basket of fun!








This mostly involves putting it over her head and even sitting in the basket. She even pretends to be a tortoise at times :)

Note that she has on her new pajamas! Cute ain't she.

Peek-a-boo!

uPapa

Firstly, we had YouTube which was bought by Google for an unbelievable mountain of cash.

Now, from the local massage/health-product scene, we have...
uPapa. Now this massage device is supposed to massage your back (or whichever part of your body you can lay on it) with the rythmic beats of large oriental drums. Now, at anytime, anyone who felt like being drummed into a pulp, can do so at their own convenience at home.
Samantha has already grasped the concept.

You Daddy (her version of uPapa).
Pao Pao (which means carry)

Drum drum drum...

Tai Thong Dim Sum

It's Saturday and the Dim Sum crave is back. We went to Tai Thong at Summer Palace hoping to get some good deals on the dim sum promotions they normally have there. Well, it is not normal anymore! The promo has ended but we did enjoy some good dim sum.

We also tried some noodles which turn out to be like wantan mee but with better ingredients and even scallops. It had better taste better and it did!
Samantha is her usual self there and we sat at the same table, that we had in a previous visit. I took the opportunity to snap some photos of her having dim sum and a generally good time!

Camera!

I can use the fork and spoon!

Can't wait for the promotion to begin again. At least quality dim sum is available at an affordable price. 

Showercap

Yes, this is a showercap. A really unique one. :)







How does this look?







Eh?

Doh Dough!

First, there was flour, water and some colouring. Then someone made PlayDoh and made lots of dough out of it.

Samantha received 2 little buckets of play dough (not PlayDoh). It was from Toys R Us. They have their own line of dough products! It's a really big range! There's so many colours, gadgets, tools, play things, thingies, etc. Samantha had a fun time playing with the 2 buckets of dough she has, so I thought of getting more.

We found this really nice Gardening Set. It was from Doh-Dough. (Can't think of a better name?). Looks like Samantha (and Mommy) are really into arts and crafts.

Now, it's time for Daddy to get more dough :) (pun intended)
Cheers! 

On her birthday

Being cheeky on her birthday, 9th January 2007. Samantha is officially 2 years old. What a journey it has been. Highs and lows and plenty of fun and laughs. I wonder what's in store for her coming years.

How will we take it?
One step at a time :)


From her birth day... wrapped up in her pink blanket.. (zzzz)








... to her first birthday! with some baby teeth coming out. What a journey it has been. Weeee!








This time again, we also had cake! It's a little Black Forest cake we picked up on the way home. It's is also another chance for her to practice blowing out the candles. How our little one has grown into a little toddler.

As a father, I can offer anyone this advice. Treasure your time. The time with your loved ones.




Let's have a taste...









Yummy and thank you all family near and far (in London, Belgium, Hong Kong, Switzerland, Australia and the US) and all friends!
