Little chef

I had a busy day yesterday. Besides having a new bed, I was invited to Nivana's 3rd birthday party at Pizza Express TST, where we all got to be little chefs and made our own pizza! Olivia, Natalie, Nana and TinTin were there too and we all had a lot of fun making pizzas, getting our fancy balloons, and watched the funny show.

All geared up with the hat and apron. You only need to use 3 fingers for this part-poking the dough

Eating the toppings while putting them on the pizza

Hi ya

Doesn't it look yummy?!

and it was yummy! Playing with Natalie and Olivia

See this Arial balloon? I love it!

My new bed!

Today is a big day for me. I am getting a 'Big Girl's Bed'. Mummy and Daddy didn't really want to move me since they were worried that I will 'escape' all the time, but what needs to be done needs to be done since I am 3 now! And now my old buddy will now look after my sister.

Last night in my baby bed. I love you. Thank you for looking after me.

It's big and Mummy got me a Princess set!

Mika can join the fun too! Sleep tight and sweet dreams...

Mummy: Okay now, one book and then bed
Me: Four books is not too many.

* Me: I want Daddy, I want Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *cry*
Mummy: But Daddy needs to work. Do you want Daddy to stay home but we live in a small house with no food or you want Daddy to work and make money so we can have nice house and nice food?
Me: I want Daddy to work and make money so he can buy me a Hello Kitty iPhone so I can play games

* Me: You know Juliet, Daddy has no hair, I want to share my hair with Daddy.

* When feeling self-conscious:
Me: Don't laugh at me!

Juliet: Bye Bye Bean Bean, see you later.
Me: *anxious* Juliet, where are you going? Are you going back to Philippines??

* When Mummy dropped the fork and made a loud noise:
Me: Mummy you are so noisy, it is too loud for my ears.

* When Daddy got into trouble after coming home wet being caught in the rain:
Me: Daddy, let me hold your hand so Mummy won't hit you, I'll protect you.

A series of events

What have I been doing since I am back...

I got to sit in the Bumbo seat! I prefer this than the swing and other chairs. But Bean Bean Zhe Zhe thinks it is a potty...

During the Sydney trip Mummy and I bonded a lot. Mainly because Mummy was holding me all the time. I love getting kisses from her and I always smile when she kisses me.
I love to eat my fingers now and my favourites are these 2 fingers on my right

And Mummy made fun of me.......

Is this how I will look with hair??

Since I love to bounce around now, Mummy had me to try out the jumper and I love it!

Our 3 weeks trip to Sydney

Wow it's been so long since the last post! Mummy is so busy that she has no time for anything! It was a good long vacation for Mika and I but not so for Mummy. She was too busy juggling the two of us and she had to ask Daddy to not go to Melbourne to help her out. When Mummy had to bathe and feed Mika, I tire PoPo out by playing various games with her. It was good to see Tai Gong, Gong Gong and PoPo again and it was so nice of YeYe and MaaMaa to make their way up to see us. I love playing with them. I miss them so much.

On our way to Sydney. Brave Mummy travelled alone with the 2 of us. I was a good girl and didn't even leave my seat. Mummy packed Tippo with lots of goodies to play and to eat. However I did manage to scream a few times while Mummy and Mika tried to sleep, which of cos earned me some scolding from Mummy and Mika. Then I was cold but I denied it when Mummy asked me if I was cold and then after a few sneezes and interrogation from Mummy, I finally admitted that I was cold, and I got sick the day after and got Mummy sick too... opps

One of the things that we did while we were there was to feed the ducks with PoPo again

Went to a carnival at Darling Harbour

Met my baby cousin Isaac, who I love so much. I had to wear a mask around him cos he was only 2 weeks old there, but he is a tall baby, he was almost the same length as Mika by the time we left!

We also went to the Easter family show, where I got to ride a pony for the first time! I love it!

Sydney Easter Family show!

We celebrated Mummy's birthday in Sydney again, 3 years in a row! We went to the fish market and had some really yummy fresh seafood

One of the highlights was going to The Wiggles Play Centre!Where I got to take photos and say hi to Henry the octopus in person!

Another highlight was going to the Zoo with YeYe and MaaMaa.. and had my face drawn as a tiger, roar!

This year Tai Gong's lunar calendar birthday and my birthday fell on the same day, so we celebrated together by having a Barbie at Lane Cove park in the afternoon...

and a nice dinner at Kam Fook at night. PoPo made me a heart shaped cake and Tai Gong had the Sau Bao

So happy to celebrate with YeYe and MaaMaa!

And I miss everybody so much!! I love you all!!

Meeting my family in Sydney

I caught the plane for the first time and saw my family from Mummy's side for the first time. Recently I am very aware of people around me and will not let anyone hold me unless I know them. So the first week in Sydney was very stressful for me as I will not leave Mummy and hung onto her like a koala, and will cry even when my family looked at me, and not to mention holding me. But then I got familiar with them and started to be sweet to them like how I normally am. But one thing I really can not get used to is being in a car. The first time I was put on the car seat I cried 45 mins from the airport to home. It took me almost the entire trip to slowly become used to it. And when I am not crying, I will usually sleep instead.

My first airplane trip, I behaved so well. I only cried during landing

I have a special swing that has music and I get to sit on it for 1 minute during Mummy's dinner. The rest of the time is on Mummy's lap while she is swallowing her food without chewing
Doing Tai-Chi with Gong Gong

Meeting with Lena, she is about 5 weeks younger than me, and all of us are doing tummy time

Hi Lena, you have beautiful fair skin. Everyone is saying I have a nice tan....

A nice moment with PoPo and MaaMaa. My favourite pass time is to be held and sucking on these 2 fingers on my right hand

I love kisses from PoPo

I miss my family so much, wish to see you again soon!

What we've been up to

It's been a long while since our last post, simply cos Mummy has no time at all. Since we were here, all Mika wants is Mummy and she was so clingy for the first week that she would cry even when someone else looks at her, and NO ONE could touch her or else she would scream. As for me, I am a good girl and I played with Gong Gong and PoPo a lot and gave Mummy some time to deal with Mika, but I do manage to give Mummy some difficult times everyday by crying for Daddy. Then Mummy and I got sick cos I was cold on the plane and refused to let Mummy know although she asked me many times, so Mummy had to ask Daddy not to go to Melbourne at all and come to Sydney directly from Hong Kong to take care of us. We got to see my cousin baby Issac who was only one week old when we first met him, and now he is 3 weeks old and almost as heavy as Mika and perhaps longer! No photos for now as Mummy couldn't download any of her photos from her camera to the computers here. One more week here and then lots of photos to come!
