Lil E is Two Years Old

Lil E turns 2 today and we had a little celebration at home with both her paternal & maternal grandparents as well as her Uncle & Aunty and cousin Sean. Will let the photos do the talking....

The Eye

Much has been said about The Eye On Malaysia ever since it opened its door in January 2007. This RM30 million project had been organised in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2007. The 60-metre Ferris wheel has 42 air-conditioned gondolas which can each accommodate eight people.

Speaking of which, last weekend we decided to make a trip to Tmn Titiwangsa for a stroll in the serene park and of course to ride on The Eye. The ride? Well, it was okay with a view of the Twin Towers, KL Tower & Istana Budaya among other landmarks. But I find the price of the ticket RM15 for adult rather pricey. Some pics here taken on that day.......

'Lil E....look at the camera, not at mommy!'

Waiting for our turn to get on to The Eye....it sure is windy..!!!

KL View...!!

Lil E turns 20 months on the 11th and its time I update on her progress since i've not been doing so lately. So here goes:

Weight ~ 11 kg
Height ~ 83 cm
Teeth ~ Lots of them

Speech/Words
She's improving in this area. Here are some of the words she knows (in addition to the previous ones)

poh-poh ~ grandma & great grandma

kor-kor

car

nen-nen

ello ~ hello (when she picks up the phone & starts to speak non-stop in her
language

ku-ku ~ my Sil (whenever i point to my SIL in photos as she
she is in Oz now)

bah ~ our family dog-TOMBA

bi ~ she follows me in calling hubby, some more in the same tone! (*slap-head)

tah ~ hitting the floor with her hand whenever she slip & fell down

mi ~ in hakka : rice (hehe)

kan-kan ~ in cantonese : towel

hou-kui ~ in cantonese : very tired (hehehe, she may have caught this word from us)

Development/Likes
Self-feeding and sometimes she may wanna feed us in return.

Able to wear slippers without it slipping off from her feets

She understands what we are saying to her eg.
-asking her to go have a drink of water from the sippy cup
- asking her to bring something over

Run over to answer the phone whenever it rings

Likes waving at people even strangers & giving out her 'million dollor smile'

Enjoys playing with other kids eg. at the McDs play area where there are plenty of other kids around, some very much older than her

Speaking of the above, she loves the McDs play area.

She loves wearing mommy's shoes be it heels or flats or slip-ons. She will parade around the hse with the shoes. Whenever we pass by any shoe shops in the mall, she will point to the shoes and say mommy mommy....yes darling, how mommy wish its all mine..:)

Dextrity
Climbing the stairs at a faster pace while holding on the railings

Climbing up and down our bed. Now we are not afraid of her falling off from the bed.

Food
She is still taking 5oz 3 times a day of milk and also 2 small bowls of porridge in a day. In between, she may snack on biscuits/buns and/or yakult drink. She may look like eating a lot but her weight gaining is very minimal probably because she is a very active child.

Lil E loves junk food (eg. french fries & carbonated drinks) but still eats during her milk and drink her milk.

She doesn't really like meat. We have to give her in smaller pieces.

Loves to eat rice (white or fried rice)

She loves soup especially mix it with her rice.

Emotions
She loves going out and practically every evening, she will pull us to the cupboard and signalled us to change our clothes so we could bring her out for kai-kai. Sometimes we will follow her 'instructions' but other times we just have to be firm and said no. She may be very unhappy but after a while and with much coaxing, she's okay

Yummy!!

I have to admit i've been a slack lately in updating this blog. Promise I will try to maintain this blog as often as possible. Nevertheless, here's a little update on Lil E.


Looks like Lil E has got the grip of self-feeding. We were having our dinner at Uncle Lim and Lil E decided to have a share of my porridge, so i scoop some out onto her bowl and pass her a spoon. There she was enjoying her meal by her own.

This little play area was specially set up by hubby about a week ago just for Lil E. She now has her own corner to look at her books and a box full of toys to play with or in my term, her own place for 'chillin out'...:) Nowadays, our kids are sure a lucky lot!!

smile!!!!

Whenever we say the word 'smile'....Lil E will give us her Million Dollar Smile like the one above.

My Lil E

How time flies. Our pride n joy is now 18 months old. I remember clearly how tiny & fragile she was the first time I held her close to me after given birth to her. Now, she's able to walk and run to me whenever I called for her. And the two sweet words of "Ma-ma" has never been so nice to hear until she say it to me clearly about 2 weeks ago. From then on....she's been calling me 'ma-ma' whenever she sees me and there're occassions when i wasn't at home, she'll point out the shoes or clothes and call 'ma-ma' to which she recognise it belongs to me....:)
