Everyone was out of the house...

Chab: I want grown ups..

Mem: Well....I'm a grown up.

Chab: You're a small grown up.

-----

Chab found tassels in a bag.

Chab: Dadi, may I borrow the rope?

Dadi: Ok.

Chab sees the tassels out of the bag now...

Chab: Oooh! Fancy!

How old are you?

A while ago, I approached Memi and told her,

"Did I mention I pooped?"

The mystery of the red lollipop

Grandmum bought Chab a red lollipop. Chab broke the stick. Grandmum said here, i'll replace it, and changes the lollipop with a new one and leaves to go upstairs.

A while later Chab breaks the stick of the second lollipop.

As we are going upstairs for bed, we meet grandmum at the landing.

Grandmum: Elisha, o, where is your lollipop?

Chab: I broke it.

Grandmum: (thinking that she was thinking of the first lollipop) No, I gave you a new one, diba?

Chab: But, I broke-d it also..

Grandmum: I don't believe you.

Chab: I don't care!




Ayayay, what 2 year olds would say... Or maybe it's just this 2 year old. Where did she pick that phrase up, and how did she know how to use it?

A Princess for a Day

November 8, 2008

I got to be a flower girl for the first time today at Tito EJ and Tita Jo's wedding.

My dress was shiny brown with an orange bow at the back. :) I was very excited to get the dress early and try it on. I practiced at home pretending to smile and walk down the aisle. I also practiced waking up early for 1 week, because the wedding was at 8 a.m.!

I got new white formal shoes, white stockings, and a shiny, pretty clip at IKAY to go with my dress.

When we arrived at the Magallanes church on the day of the wedding, I was scared, because I saw all the people! But after seeing the other kids, I started to relax. I did practice runs down the aisle holding my Memi and Grandmum's hands. Then I walked on the red carpet again with my Dadi, and again, by myself.

I got a ball of orange flowers to hold and more orange flowers to wear on my head. Then, I was ready. I'm proud to say that I was able to walk down the aisle when it was my turn to [even though Memi walked with me a bit at the start] and I walked all the way to the front alone.

Grandad and Grandmum came along to take a video of me. You can see the video at our house. :)

At the end of the day, I was so tired and wanted to remove the dress, the stockings, the shoes and the clip in my hair! Being a princess is not easy. :)

But I did love dancing at the reception and playing around in my dress. Thank you tito and tita for a beautiful dress and yummy muffins for breakfast.

Can I get my balloon now, Mem?

How about my orange bag, Dadiyoh?

:)

This time for real!

November 6, 2008, Thursday

This time it was for real! Last thursday was my first time to pee in the real toilet. Memi put me in a panty that morning. We were in the den, and Memi was at the computer, then, I said, "Memi! Memi! MEMI!!!"

Memi looked and saw me looking like I had to pee [because I was sticking my butt out]. Then, she brought me to the toilet [the real one and not my potty] I was holding my pee for 20 seconds, but then I did it! I heard the sound, and I had peed in the toilet. :) Good thing I recognized that I had to pee AND called Memi AND was able to hold it till we got to the toilet. :)

I'd been wearing diapers for the past couple of days because I kept wetting myself wearing panties, and that Thursday when Memi put me in the panty, I think I knew that I had to tell her when I needed to go. I didn't want to wet myself again. :)

Congratulate me. :)

Another first at 2 years and 4 months.

Singing while playing

I made up a song today, while I was playing with my cooking toys. It goes like this:

A ngay, ngay bunny
And a pink, pink bunny
In a cozy ngaaaannnd!!!

I'M BUNNY!

(repeat 10x)

Big girl pants

I'm wearing big girl pants during the day now. Augh! I hate getting wet all over when I pee. I haven't been able to make it to the potty yet or say that I am ready to pee. I just stop, and then watch in shock as a yellow drip pools around my legs. I'm frozen in the ground when that happens.

28 months and spelling

Thanks to my Tita Roberta's gift from my 2nd birthday I can now spell using my Boggle Jr.

I'm starting to recognize letters now. At first I only knew 3 letters. O, X , W (because of Elmo's alphabet Jungle) and M (because of my favorite chocolate M & M's).

Now, I can spell baby, boot, moon, road, and all the cards in my Boggle Jr. game! I can recognize more letters now, including E, B, C, D, S, A, I (which I call 'straight line') and P.

I love the spelling game!

Rhymes

Now that I'm more than 2, I want to do some things myself. Yesterday I told Mem

"I will, daffodil."

hahhahahaha...

Storytime

Grandad was telling a story about what happened at the skyway office. He was talking to Memi in Tagalog since Chab was playing facing the other way near Tito Joey.

Chab goes to Grandad and yells,

"ENGLISH, GRANDAD! ENGLISH!!!"

Tune-d in

Here I am listening to my own tunes on the ipod nano



Here are the lyrics if you want to sing along:

Elmo's Song

La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
Elmo's song

La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
Elmo's song

He wrote the music,
he wrote the words.
That's Elmo's song!

Remembering Rewards

" I got a candy, I got a candy!"

Memi said, I'll get a candy if I use the potty. I haven't been able to use the potty yet since the last time, but I remember that she gave me one for packing away my toys. So, I tried asking for one yesterday for packing away my toys. :) hahah.

This morning I read my book, Spot's Special Days, then I asked Mem,
"Can I have a candy? Because I read [the book out loud], diba?"

I Love Buchi!

I love buchi! At the end of my meal at Fu, Serendra I ordered one from the waiter. :) It was my 3rd time there. :)

1st time successful

I've been trying to use the potty for a while now ever since March. At first, I was afraid of it and didn't want to go near it. After a month, I learned to sit on it and pretend, but I still had my pants on. When Memi asked if I wanted to use the potty I said, "NO!".

After a while, I learned to recognize when I needed to pee. So, I would tell Memi that I need to pee, but didn't make it to the potty. Then, one day, I did it! I peed in the potty! Yay! My first time! And, there was a second time too!

I forgot about using the potty after that. Not until this month did I start using the potty again. Memi said if I did, I would get my favorite candy, strawberry Sugus. 1 candy for peeing and 2 candies for pooping. I did a couple of wee-wees. I know it's coming because I always feel hot there... :) haha..

No success for pooping yet though.

Today, I felt hot and I told Mem. I sat on the potty for a while...then Memi said, if I poo in the potty I'll get 3 candies! After a few tries - my first POOP! Hooray!

I got my 4 candies! (because I peed too). I'm so proud of me.

And Memi is too. :)

Are you proud of me Dadi? :)

Monday Fun in the Park

Today, Mem, Tito Joe and I went to Heritage to visit Lola Liza at 4pm.

I got to fly a kite all by myself for the first time today! :) Yay! It was flying high and it dipped to the right. and to the left when I pulled the string up and down, up and down. :)

I ran around the grass and we had a small picnic with Cheetos, marshmallows and eggnog cookies. I tried shouting while a big marshmallow was in my mouth, but all that came out was, "uuuurrrhhh!".

We all ran down the hill when I let go of the kite string! We chased the kite down the hill and I spilled my cookies :c because I was holding them while running.

I brought my little tykes trike, but it wouldn't roll down the grassy hill, so Tito Joe tried pushing me. Weee! We were moving. Then, Tito Joe made it go faster, the wheels weren't turning that well, because the grass was thick, and it toppled over! I fell into the grass face-forward and Tito Joe tumbled over me in the air and down the hill!!! Yahhhh!

When I got up, there was grass in my mouth! Wah! Gross. Memi gave me some water and a hug so that I would feel better. I wasn't hurt, because the grass was soft, but it sure was prickly!
Still, after everything, I got on my bike once more to try again, this time slower, because you have to get up and try again even if you do fall down. :)

A good hour of the day well spent.

Before, going I did the sign of the cross, and prayed for Lola. I said, "I miss you so much, Lola."

I waved goodbye from my carseat window. Bye Lola! ;)

Same hair

My 1st VTR at 24 months old

This was my first VTR. I was 24 months old here. Came along with Tito Botchok and cousins Kiana and Kaiel for VTRs at 2 agencies :)

Just Plain Ice Cream Please

Grandad: Elisha, do you want ice cream?

Chab: No, not yet..

Grandad: Do you want ice cream with strawberry syrup?

Chab: Eh! I don't want blood.

Grandad: Do you want ice cream with nuts?

Chab: That's for squirrels!

Grandad: How about honey? Do you like honey?

Chab: Eh! I'm not Pooh Bear!

Chab update - August 2008

I got another bangs haircut from Memi yesterday and this time I was really awake with no distractions except for the TV. I might be ready for a real haircut!

Dadi got me a pet goldfish the day before yesterday. I call her Dorfy, after Elmo's pet fish, Dorothy. I feed her every morning. :)

Happy Birthday Tito Odari!!! :*

Smarty Pants

Chab seems to be watching too much Looney Tunes lately, and starts taking after Daffy Duck.


Memi: "Here's your milk."

Chab: "No." [she thinks for a moment and says] "Surrender? Never!!!"

She also likes saying, mine, mine, mine a lot now...

--------------------

Daddy turns on the playstation to play a game..

Chab: There he goes again...

----------------------
Chab goes to McDonalds with Grandmum

Grandmum: Chab do you like fries?

Chab: No, no, thank you.

Tito Joe: How about apple pie?

Chab: Neither.

---------------------
Chab feeds her pet fish, Dorfy.

Chab: "Give it a try Dorfy. Eat your Nerds, Dorfy."
[fish food looks like Nerds candy]

My Famous Replies

I like to reply to any of your questions with different phrases, that I change from time to time. Here is some of the ones I've already used:

-I'm sure.

-It could be so.

-No. No, thank you.

And, currently I am using

-Yes,sir.

(Even if I'm speaking to a girl)

25 months

I'm in my 'NO' phase. I say "Naaahh!!" to everything anyone suggests.

Mem: "Milkee time!"

Chab: "Nah!"

Dadi: "Sleepy time!"

Chab: "Nah!"

Dadi: "Eating time!"

Chab: "Naaahhh!!"


Also, I'm loving the Little Einsteins right now. I have 10 episodes I watch over and over. I can't get enough! I watch it, when I wake up, and after lunch, and during dinner, before sleeping and in between everything I do! I like Annie the best. I'm Annie. I assigned Dadi to be Quincy and Mem to be June. I like singing all Annie's parts while putting one hand on my chest and the other one up in the air.

Some habits of my habits right now are putting up my feet [or else I can't sleep], grinding my teeth [ I do this when I get new teeth], and jumping on the bed.

I stopped using a sippy cup already for meal time and switched to a normal 'big-girl' glass. Sometimes, when we eat out, and they don't have a high chair, I just sit in the 'big-girl's' chair and eat by myself if I can.

chab said

memi, can you stop computering

Chab used to say

Chab used to say,

"Magazine, I read."

if she wanted to read.

Now, she says, "Memi, can you read me a story, the one of Martin and the spots?"

Chabby and Dadi time

Last night I had 'chabby and dadi time'. It was fun. We opened the toy box and spill, spilled all the toys on the floor. Like I always say, "Speeeelll, I want to speeeeellll, speeeelll all the toys!"

Dadi and I played with my new toys from my birthday party, then, we read my favorite Little Einstein book together on the floor. Dadi was lying down on the floor on his back, and I was lying down on top of Dadi looking up at the ceiling while we read the book. :) I made him read it to me 4 times. :)

Later, Dadi got an idea. We took the red permanent maker and painted my toe nails. At first I didn't want to, but when Dadi said, your turn first, then me, I agreed. Hahahahahaha! :)

First time in the rain

It was my first time to take a bath in the rain last week. At first, I just watched from under the roof and I was afraid to go out. But, Dadi said it was ok and even got a paper boat for me to float in the little flood at the side of the house. After I put on my havaianas, I jumped in the puddles on the floor with Grandmum. It was fun! Dadi took my video. I was soaking wet! I [fake] cried when my paper boats sank.

Frogs...

Tito Joey: Elisha, you get the frog and catch it.

Elisha: No, no, no.

Tito Joey: When you are in 2nd year high school, you have to catch a frog and cut it open.

Elisha: No, no, no... I don't like high school.

:)

Lola's death anniversary

Yesterday was ngonga's death anniversary. We went to visit her, had a picnic and then we had mass for her. I fell asleep before we made it to the mass, because I was so tired from the morning when I had my first VTR.

Right now Chab is...

saying, Mommy here's your bagses.

Right now Chab is...

playing make-believe boats with the pillows and asking for oars.

My 1st class at Gymboree

June 11, 2008

I had my first class at Gymboree. I got to play by myself for a while because I was early. I had fun climbing and jumping on the trampoline. The place was very colorful. I had fun playing with Memi and then with Dadi. :)



My teacher arrived at 4pm and so did my other classmates. My classmates names were Sam, Anika, Paola and Sidney.

I was excited and curious to see what would happen because it was my first time in a class. Memi said I was very good at sitting and listening to my teacher, even when all the other kids were distracted and running away to play.



The theme for the day was monkeys, ooh aahh!!! We pretended to be monkeys, looked around for bananas, fed a monkey puppet some bananas, had a pretend coconut cafe where we climbed small hills and then did the BANANA SHAKE and the gorilla stomp, crossed the bridge to monkey island, climbed a make-believe tree to pick a banana, sang songs about monkeys with actions - CLOMP!, and hung around the monkey bars like a monkey. I was the best at hanging. I could hold on for 22 seconds, everyone held on for 9 seconds. I practice hanging at home a lot!

We also sang a song with Jimbo the clown of Gymboree, caught a lot of bubbles, and made a colorful house with the parachute. We played in and out with a long and colorful garter.





We shook colorful maracas and then played the keeping game with a song, "this is the way we pack away, pack away, pack away" to the tune of the wheels on the bus.

At the end teacher gave everyone stamps for being good, but I didn't want any, because I didn't like to stamp it on my body..heheheh!

I am 2 today!

June 16, 2008

I am officially 2 years old today!

I had my party last Saturday and all my cousins and friends came to play with me at Fun Ranch. We had spaghetti, chicken and lechon! My cake looked like a barn and I had many cupcakes with cute barn animals on them. Everyone got to play in the activefun play area. I think they all loved it. :) I love playing in activefun.

I couldn't blow out my candle because I'm afraid of fire! But, maybe next year :D





My dress was from Gingersnaps and my cake was by Bohemia. Thank you everyone for the gifts and I hope that you enjoyed your lootbags! : )

Thank you Gwanmum for getting the lechon. :)

Thank you Dadi and Memi for the party!

See more pictures here

Things I do

Dadi and memi were so proud of me when i remembered to turn of the television before going upstairs.

See you ngater angigator

If i don't like the choices of what you give me, I make my own. :)

Memi: You want baby massage?

Chab: Or, baby bites :) (rice crackers)

----

Memi: Do you want to wear this t-shirt or singlet?

Chab: Or, dress. :)

23 months, full of surprises

Chab eating breakfast, with tito Joey playing with her...

Chab: Uuuhhh! (Tito Joey eat also)

Tito Joey: Ok.

Tito Joey gets an empty bowl and spoon and pretends to eat in front of Chab.

Chab: Aaaahh!!!! Fake!!!

***

I say many surprising things now. Memi, and my family are so amazed. I can fix small things like when pieces of my toys come off, I can put it back on my own. I love drawing with my crayons. I notice all the details, especially when riding in the car seeing all the sites. I know when we are almost to the grocery or to my play gym Activefun.

I have my own name for SM/or the mall - it's ikay-ikay. I dunno, I just made that one up. Memi likes it. I also made up words like bugga bugga, and honkey donkey. Another word I made up is poo poo stick - that means pogo stick.

My favorite food nowadays is cake! I have to have cake once a week or just before sleeping, whichever Memi will allow. :)

I'm noticing that it's almost my birthday and I know the place that I am going to have it. I started looking at lootbags, and tasting LOTS of cake. I love taste testing cotton candy and popcorn too! ;) I'm excited for my birthday. I hope that I can blow out the candles on my birthday cake, that's why I'm already practicing.

I know and use words like gravity, stethoscope, paparazzi and heart pressure.

22 months

At 22 months I mastered climbing up and down the stairs. :) I don't like to be carried especially when I can climb stairs on my own. I ngove watching playhouse Disney. My favorite shows are Clipard (Clifford) puppy days, Mickey Mouse cubhouse (clubhouse), Save-ums, Cocoyo (pocoyo) and Jojo's Circus. I like playing hide and seek, especially in the dark when I can use my pwashngite (flashlight). I love toys and not just toys-things! anything I find new I want to try, touch and hold. I ngove throwing my toys out of the box and making a big mess...Kangat!!! (kalat)

I'm used to sleeping in the afternoon now, and it doesn't take me long to fall asleep at 4pm. But, if I don't get my nap, you can tell I'm sleepy when I say I want to "doog something" or "I want to spill spill everything."

I'm still practicing using the potty. I haven't gotten down to pulling my dipies off before using it, but sometimes I like to sit on it. Mostly, I use the the potty as an excuse to go down from the bed when I know it's bedtime, because Memi doesn't let me go down unless it's for potty. And then, I go straight for the ref!

When something I like is all out, like oreos, I say, "We have to go to the gwocewy and buy more."

I don't like when my clothes are wet, I immediately ask Memi to change my shirt if water spills on it. :)

I love going out for car rides. I sit voluntarily in my car seat, but I won't let the trip go by unless I get a chance to drive too! If we go home and I haven't had a chance to sit at the driver's seat and play around in the car, I will stay for a few minutes, before going into the house again.

I still use my pwaygwound (thank you dadi) but now, I mostly use the slidewee. :) I can almost slide by myself, but I prefer if Memi is holding me. I like playing dagan dagan in the garage with toto Doey too.

My favorite food these days are bubuwan (polvoron), chuckie (chocolate milk), CHOCOLATE, cake, french toast and jengy snakes da sweet wan. (jelly snakes)

My ninang Kat has chickenpox. Memi told me this. So, I said, "I want to buy chickenpox." Memi said, "You cannot buy chickenpox, you can only get it." So, I said, "I want to get chickenpox when I grow up. I want to give Tito Doey chickenpox when he grows up."

Hahaha, said Memi.

I can sing "I have two hands" and "I'm a little teapot" all by myself ;)

Said while sleeping

I ngove the ngitle cat, grabe..I want my own cake!

Bintan, Indonesia

Did I share my beach trip to Bintan with you already? Click on my pic to see more.




It was raining the whole weekend, but I had fun in the playground, riding the golf cart and trying out the duyan.

:)

Reading my Santa's Elf book

The book says:

"Santa's elves work night and day to make the toys to fill his sleigh. And, never ever seem to stop just look around the busy shop."

Trying on shades

Whatyuduin?

I'm a ngitel tea pot

I'm a little teapot short and stout...

I learned that song last night before bedtime. I made memi sing it 10 times until i memorized the song and the actions. Then, after the tenth time, I sang along with her and made her sing it 10 more times.

Then, Memi asked me to sing it all by myself and I did!

Napping, Eating and Meltdowns

Meltdowns! I have lots of them when I am sleepy or cranky. You can tell that I need sleep when I start taking gibberish and I crumple to the floor at the drop of a hat.

I'm still trying to get into a regular nap time. I can't fall asleep by myself yet, unless I am REALLY tired like when I haven't napped for the whole day.

I'm not into eating nowadays, because my second molars are growing, but I can buckle my own seatbelt now.

Here is one thing I like though, SNACKS! Here's a pic of Dadi and me eating nachos and salsa. :)

I'm a bedgtabol gehl.

I ngove (love) eating vegatables. Grandmum calls me a vegetable girl. I don't like meat unless I am really hungry or Memi hides it in the rice.

I've been really cranky for the past days because I'm growing my second molars. I think Memi will blender my food again just so I can eat it.

I love eating corn, asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage. I want all my meals to have vegetables in them.

Blowing bubbles

I blew my first bubble last night with Dadi and Memi watching. I'm practicing for my birthday coming up :)

I used my dora non-spill bubble holder and bubble wand and blew 5 bubbles! Hooray for me!!!

Memi and Dadi are so proud of me :)

pffffffffff!!! pffffffffffffffffffffff!!!

You Member...?

I can recall many things now, even if they were days away. I like to say, "you member?" (you remember) to you, but I only say the experiences I had with you.

Like with Memi it's, you member the milk spilled from the tea (scoop) and you wipe it with tissue with water from the glass?

And with Gwanmum it's, you member the kakawoach in the gwocy (cockroach in the grocery).

And with Dadi it's, you member the popcorn in the swing? higher, higher!

And with lolo it's, you member the cake and candle...blow! (on lolo's birthday)

I member the buchi, it's hot! it's black... (grandmum's bday at Fu in Serendra). I ngike buchi. :)

I member the special house and the real stars. Want to get it. You member the dog? and the man fixing the ngines (lines).
[brownout at the house, when she stayed under the mosquito net and saw the stars at night and the meralco guys fixing the post]

Expressing myself at 21 months

Going up the stairs in the house, grandad brings me to the 2nd floor. But I want to go to the 3rd floor...

Chab: uuuuhhhhhh! (fake cry)

Grandad: What's that?

Memi: She is protesting.

Grandad: Why are you protesting? Are you protestant?

Chab: Uuuuuhhhh...Memi, I'm protestant!

Ahahhaha...

----

Looking in a drawer of grandad's gadgets...

Chab: Memi, what's this?

Memi: A light. For the car.

Chab: Want to open...

Memi: It's closed...

Chab: Maybe... I need scissors.

Starts looking deeper in the drawer for scissors...
:)

----

Looking up at the 4th floor

Chab: I want to go there there

Yaya: It's too hot there

Chab: I can try...

---

Watching cartoons

Memi: Do you want to watch Clifford puppy days?

Chab: Yah

Memi: Really?

Chab: I'm sure.

----

Grandad plays with Chab's polar bear pobee making it stand on hind legs and making roaring sounds walking towards Chab sitting on the bed.

Gwandad: Roaaarrrr!!!

Chab shouts, "NOT ON THE BED!!!"

----

Don't clean me!

I hate having having my diaper changed, or wiping my face or taking a bath. But, I still have to do them...

I don't like brushing my teeth too, unless Memi plays the game 'take out'. She says, take out the corn, take out the oreos...or any other thing I ate that day, while brushing my teeth.

I don't like washing my hands or wiping with baby wipes unless I know that I am going to eat something I like after. :)

Remarks

While in the grocery...

Memi: Chab! Look, grapes! There are red ones and green ones. Which do you like?

Chab: Anything. I like grapes.

hahahah...

Had some of Toto Doey's friends over, before leaving...

Jan-be: Elisha, are you sad to see us go?

Chab: No, I'm happy!

ahahaha....

Getting cheeky!

Dadi told Memi I'm probably gaining some weight as my cheeks looked rounder now and I'm getting a double chin...Dadi only sees my cheeks only on the webcam now as he's in back in Singapore, but he'll be kissing them soon! :D Hopefully he doesn't have to go back to Singapore as he's alone there and quite sad (don't cwy dadi...) I can't wait for next month to play gigil games with him before bedtime, and then I have to hug him so he stops tickling me hehe.. "hug!"

Helpful and Sweet

I always like to help Memi when she is doing something. I like doing things together! Especially the sweeping and mopping. That is my favorite. I also help when loading the washing machine when I can. I like putting back what toys I got from my toy drawer and keeping the Memi's old matchbox cars back in their box when I'm done looking at them.

I like to ask, "What you doin'?" to everyone.

I always ask to hold dadi and memi's hand while walking so we can walk together. I always share my food with toto doey, memi, dady, gwandad, gwanmum, ninang kat, tita dec or yaya. Sometimes when I like the food I pretend to feed them with my arm outstretched, then, when they come close with their mouth open, I put the food in my own mouth. Hahah!

I'm 21 months!

I'm a pro at picking up things that you say. I say things like "Oh, dear, oh my, oh my godness!" (that's not at typo). If you say, "Where is your ilok? (armpit)", I say, "I'm on to you." If I'm holding a basket of things and they spill out onto the floor, I say, "Oh, no! My things!!" If I'm hungry already, I say, "I'm ringy, ringy hungry."

I'm still not into changing diapers, and haven't been for the past 2 months. I'm really afraid of changing diapers in public places. I cry and scream just to make Memi stop.

I like playing with my stuffed toys now especially my Singapore Zoo polar bear Pobee and my manatee who I call Dugom. I just started liking stuffed toys starting last month. I like feeding Poby my milk and rocking him like a baby.

I am great at pushing my Disney princess stroller. I don't need help from Memi anymore for steering. I love cars and bikes because I can steer now. I like sitting in the driver's seat of dadi's car and beeping the horn.

One time I was in the driver's seat playing while Dadi was getting HenLin. I beeped the horn even if Memi said not to because there was a girl eating in the shell station in front of the car. She was really surprised by the loud sound and her eyes grew very big!!! I quickly sat down from where I was standing at the wheel so she wouldn't see me, and started leaning my head to the left and sinking down to hide!

I miss my playdate friends and the playground in Singapore. So, Dadi bought my my very own playground! I ngove it!!! I like swinging high in my blue seal swing with the seatbelt on ,of course. Every morning I go out to play, and if I could go out at night I would play all night at the playground.

Memi got me a new potty, and I like to sit on it for 1 second and then stand up and say, "I'm done!" I'm not really interested in using it for real yet. Maybe when I'm used to seeing it around for a while.

It's very hot now here in Manila. I'm so happy that Dadi bought me a wading pool for outside! I use it almost everyday. Dadi, can you put a picture of me in my pool on my blog?

I don't like using my stroller much anymore here because we have a car. I like to walk around by myself in the malls and slide out of grasp if anyone is trying to pick me up.

I can sing all the words to Twinkle twinkle little star now and most of Old McDonald had a Farm. I like to use the microphone when I sing the Backyardigans theme song at the start of my DVDs.

I miss my high chair for eating and can't wait til it arrives. I hope my toys get here soon too!

I have to upload my pictures of the zoo, singapore flyer and my friends Katharina and Janek. Here are some:






Bestfriends!
