It's a Deal

Found this video taken when Sweetie was about 1 month old while Cutie was 15 months old.

Mummy finds it amusing cos' it sounds as if they are making some sort of deal. As to the details of the deal, bet only the 2 of them know.

Reference to the video, here's what that Mummy sees/hears:

Both looking at each other.

S: (showing hand - asking "hey, how?")

C: (hand acknowledging) Scrooby deal, yaber shal..

S: (showing hand, asking "five?")

C: (showing "five") say it, it's a deal, it's a deal, shall we.. deliver (???)

S: (raising hand, saying "OK")

C: Still a deal, shall we (holding hands) ...xia da da (??? xia dao da, ie. not scared)Both laughed.

So cute. Everytime I play this video, they will be glued to the screen on the laptop (hee... as if recalling their deal). Hee...

2 years old Cutie (Part 6)

Brought both darlings to the Junior League Children's Style Salon at Suntec, intending to let them have a nice haircut before our trip to Korea. It costs $20 per haircut (with LCD TV screen to entertain the little ones, balloons and stickers). It is actually a bit expensive (just to cut the fringe only), but Mummy thot they deserved to be pampered since this is, in fact, the 2nd time I brought them to salon for haircut since birth (the first time they were at Compass Point Supercuts where they were, hee... shaved "botak" (bald) when each was 1 month old then).

Well, guess what, at the salon, my Cutie simply refused to let the stylist to look at or touch her hair and simply refused to let go of me. She said "I want Mummy to cut her hair". Few days ago, when I told her about going to salon, she had also said the same thing. Even on the way to Suntec, when I told her that she's going for a haircut, she had also kept on telling me softly "No, Mummy do your hair" (ie. asking me to have my hair done cos' on 1 occasion while shopping alone with them at IMM, Mummy suddenly decided to go for a O3 hair treatment at Jean Yip when I saw that the place is spacious and safe to bring my kids in).

It was then that Mummy realised that this Cutie actually understands what she is saying and she really meant it. Mummy had initially thot that her refusal is just like most kids who don't like to have their hair cut. At that moment, I can feel her desire to have her everything done by Mummy.

Even on a few occasions when we were going to Compass Point, Mummy was a little lazy to walk and thus intended to drive there. Mummy asked this Cutie if she prefers to walk or go by car (hee... to get consensus that it's not that I'm lazy to walk) and to my surprise, her choice is always to walk. For most kids (including us adults), we would have chosen being driven in a car without hesitation. Guess she really enjoys walking with Mummy holding her hand and singing songs along the way. That's why Mummy is often touched by this Cutie's actions and her thinking always make me wonder is she really 2 years old (haha... to be exact is 2 and 1/2 now).

She's looking forward to going to Korea cos' she knows that Mummy will be able to carry her as Meimei will be carried by Daddy then. So now she has to walk while Mummy pushes the stroller with Meimei on it. Though she knows that Mummy can handle alone carrying her and pushing the stroller (now using Maclaren Volo which is light-weight), she doesn't whine or cry to be carried. She just walks along with me. See, how not to feel so touched by her. Hence, I will often carry her whenever I got the chance to.

Be patient, Cutie, Mummy is also looking forward to going to Korea where I can carry you more often than now. Gee... guess we just love each other too much.

My Moon and My Star

Yes, I'm referring to my Cutie and Sweetie.

Last year, my Cutie was very observant with things associated with the crescent moon. Everyday, she would point to the moon in the sky (out from the window) and say "moon". There was once, she pointed to her Carebear's and told Mummy "moon". Mummy was ???, wondering where got moon over there. On closer look, Mummy was really surprised to see the "moon" on Carebear's face (haha... it's actually Carebear's eyebrow which is thick and arched like the crescent moon).

Now (similar to my Cutie), this Sweetie of mine has sharp eyes for "star". She is rather quick in identifying the star and will eagerly point and tell Mummy "star, star". That day, she was crying and Mummy tried to distract her by asking her to look for star on my laptop (gee... I dun even know if there's star on the laptop screen, just want to distract her and stop crying). Well, while I was still searching for the star, my Sweetie was already pointing and shouting "star, star". Guess, my eyesight is failing too.

Well, sometimes it can be so comforting to see both of them having fun together or enjoying each others' company. Here's a video of my Moon sharing her cornflakes with my Star. My Sweetie's latest vocabulary is "bear".

Fun n Boots

The weather is still as hot over here though Daddy shared that it is getting colder in Korea. So let my darlings have some fun with the water. Didn't know it's so tough to pump the big pool, so only pump 1 level instead of 4, hee... (got the maid to do it the other time).

Guess my action of pumping the pool must have reminded my Cutie of pumping petrol, so after her bath, caught her pumping her cars.

Last week when it rained, I was wondering why my Cutie was so happy. It turned out that she knew she can wear her boots for the 1st time cos' previously Mummy had told her that boots are for rainy day. Since then, she always requests to wear her boots whenever we go out. Everyday, she will also wear her boots and walk around the foyer area in the house.

Ended up the little one also gets influenced. Like what people say, "Monkeys see, monkeys do".

Well, anyway already pre-warn Daddy about the mess he will be facing when we went over. Actually, it's not that bad, at least these 2 darlings know that they had to put back the boots after having fun. Thank God.
