Faythe is showing tremendous interest in being independent. I notice that she can now sit down on the floor and use both her hands to wear her shoes. Before this she could only do it while standing up. But she still wears her shoes *terbalik* most of the time LOL. She’s pretty good with sandals, but close-up shoes are still not there yet.

Lately she’s on another new milestone. Wearing her own pants. It all started one night when I was busy nursing Vyktore and Faythe needed to wear her pyjamas. I put on the top but didn’t manage to do so for the bottom. I asked her to try putting on herself and she was eager to learn. After few attempts, she ended up having both the legs in one side of the pants LOL…and she almost give up..*asking me to help* but I still encourage her showing her with one hand how to do it while the other hand still nursing Vyktore.

In the end I wore it for her. Few nights ago, I decided to spring clean their clothes since Vyktore has outgrown most of his clothes. So this girl also KPC came and help. She started putting all the pants and see if she could fit into it. I just let her do it to keep her busy while I sort the clothes out. After sometime, she finally got it right!! She manage to put her legs one side each, stood up and pull the pants up…She did this with another pants inside LOL…and due to so many trying, if you notice the picture, the pants is actually inside out liao kakakaka…I had a good laugh while taking photos . I praised her for being so clever.

Now she wears her pants every night and she’s getting good at it. Bravo my lil girl. Next is the top..which she tried once and ended up the hands came out from the collar

OK another backdated post..gosh I’ve got so much to post, so little time to write.

Ornamental fish exhibition was held this year at KLCC (18th Nov). I saw the advertisement on my way to work, so I quickly book Daddy’s time. Knowing him, a fish lover sure will go lah kekeke…

We left Vyktore with MIL as Daddy claims that the place will be packed!! But it wasn’t grrrr…Anyway, we decided to take a LRT instead of drive down to avoid the jam. Faythe was sleeping in her stroller during the LRT ride. It was actually a pretty long walk from KLCC Station to the KLConventionCenter. Exhausted!!

Faythe got very excited when she saw so many fishes. At first she was still a bit blur (since just woke up), but after a while, she’s already warm up and running about. I have to push the stroller, at the same time trying to papparazi her and take photos of the fish.

It was a so-so exhibition. No big deal, saw a lot types of goldfish and arowana. Faythe could recognise the aro. There were one special arowana, it’s a siamese twin. Joint at the stomach..eww..looks gruesome to me. I showed Faythe the fish, she gave me a weird look and said “Aro terbalik” kakaka…

She was very busy running around, looking at the fishes and asking me to see. Eye opener for her I guess. She even attempt to put her fingers into one fish pond. Her action caught the Press attention and the photographer took some of her pics.

After the exhibition, we went to the KLCC park for a walk but didn’t stay there for long as it was scorching hot. We head home by 12pm. We were very tired, when we reached home, Faythe slept for 3 hours LOL.

Since the fish exhibition, she’s showing a lot of interest in fish. Everyday when the maid feeds our fish, she gets very excited and would sit and watch her feeding the fish.

I must say that I miss Faythe’s development alot nowadays cause she’s picking up words like choo choo train. Everyday when I go pick her up, she’s got new words under her pocket to amaze me…and the things she says, really can make all of us laugh.

Satu Ringgit means a whole world to her
Last saturday, we were in MIL’s car (hubby, myself, MIL’s maid, Faythe & MIL – driving). This was what she said in the car:
Faythe: Satu ringgit…
Mommy: What you say Faythe?
Faythe: Satu ringgit…
MIL: wahh..who teach you to say that?
MIL’s maid: saya ajar lah (I thought her)

MIL told us that she gave Faythe a dollar yesterday and Faythe hold it all the way to the shopping mall. Then she dragged MIL and pointed on so many things to buy with her satu ringgit. In the end bought a cotton candy, that also MIL gotta top up…money value so small eh..

2 days ago, she said Satu ringgit again while I was driving to MIL’s house to drop them off.
Faythe: satu ringgit…buy…
Mommy: What you want to buy with satu ringgit girl?
Faythe: Buy pizzzaaaaaa (she said the zaaaa pretty long)
Mommy: giggles…girl, satu ringgit can’t buy pizza lerr (Maid was also laughing in the car)
Faythe: Buy pizzaa
Mommy: Mommy teach you, twenty dollars..that can buy pizza
Faythe: *she kept quiet, probably trying to digest what I was telling her*

Wake up

Faythe enjoys reading a lot at this stage. Sometimes, she will just take her books and sit there quietly flipping the pages. Every night she will request Mommy to read to her.

Mommy as usual, so tired n sleepy (esp. on weekdays) most of the time I’ll read 2 books to her (if the book is short story) and 1 book (if it’s long story). I’m quite amazed that she can let me finish the whole long story (about 30mins) without losing attention.

After 2 books, usually I will tell her book oi oi…then I go to sleep and tries to put her to sleep too. Lately, she refuse to sleep and this is what happens:

Faythe: *Still flipping the book and talking to herself* whale…swallow..daddy…fish…and some funny language I don’t know what she says
Mommy: Faythe, oi oi OK. Mommy sleepy liao..*I start to doze to wonderland, eyes really can’t open*
Faythe: Mommy mommy…wake up!! *she slaps her hand on my face*
Mommy: Ouch!! pain lah…Cannot beat Mommy OK. When you wake people up, you have to be gentle, like this (I showed her what’s the diff within whacking me up and patting me up)
Faythe: she gently patted on my cheeks and say Mommy wake up..
Mommy: Yes..clever girl..Mommy’s eyes continue to close and doze off again…
Faythe: Mommy, wake up!!
Mommy: *this time I really can’t already, so tired*
Faythe: Mommy, wake up..*She used her fingers and open my eyelids!!*
Mommy: Mommy oi oi liao..see eyes closed
Faythe: Faythe open..kakaka…Mommy read…
No choice, I went to switch off the lights OR else this lil fella will not gonna sleep and leave me alone as well..FInally, both of us went to visit Zhau Gung

Bilingual

Faythe learns a lot of Malay words nowadays from the maids. Sometimes she uses them and mix together with other words. Most of the time we can understand what she’s trying to speak. Sometimes when we can’t, she does translation for us too

MIL’s maid: Faythe come..kakak give mom mom (food)
Faythe: don’t want…runaround and playing with her toys
MIL’s maid: Faythe come lahh…kakak give mom mom (food)
Faythe: Tak mau lahhh (she thought the maid didn’t understand, so she told her in Malay language LOL)

Another scene:
Faythe: Faythe cook
Mommy: What you cooking?
Faythe: Cook rice
Mommy: OOhh..what is cook (trying to pull her legs)
Faythe: Masak…masak rice
Mommy: *giggles*…Faythe cook for who?
Faythe: Daddy!! (Whenever we ask her she cook for who, she will only say daddy)
Mommy: rice only ah…no dishes?
Faythe: *kept quiet to think* fishhhh…
Mommy: ooh fish, nice, how bout choi (veg) got or not?
Faythe: Got…

Daddy has a yummy meal LOL

Nyanyuk

Sometimes she’s so playful that she can address people wrongly. This happened in MIL’s house one evening when I went to fetch them home. MIL was sitting on one side of the sofa, and I was at another different sofa. Faythe was running within the 2 of us, climbing up and down the sofa set.

Faythe: *run to MIL* grandmaa…and went to hug MIL
Faythe: *ran to me* Mommy…and climb on top sat on my lap

She did a few rounds of running within the 2 of us at one time:

Faythe: *running towards me* Grand..she paused for a while, then Mommy
Mommy: What..u call Mommy grand ma..kakakaka….
MIL: Nyanyuk already lah you girl
Faythe: hahaha…she was giggling away

That was a quick pause and change..never thought she can do that at such a young age, so pandai twisting words liao kekeke

OK..the title must have caught your attention . So read on….

Few nights ago, I was sleeping on my bed. Daddy was next to me. Vyktore in the cot. Faythe on the mattress next to the cot.

I think it was like 4-5am in the morning. I was half asleep after feeding Vyktore. Not yet into deep sleep.

In the midst of falling into deep sleep…there was a shadow moving. A very small one.

It headed towards my directions.

I got afraid, and retreated…I couldn’t tell if it was my dream, or I’m imagining or it’s real (since I’m still not in deep sleep).

Immediately I shifted myself back, went nearer to Daddy’s side. And that left some space within myself and the side of the bed.

Then suddenly, that shadow which was walking towards me came up on the bed..and just drop right next to me!! But nothing happens after that.

I fell asleep….and this is what I found out the next day….that shadow that gave me a fright!!

Yes!!! This actually not the first time she does that. It’s very often this lil girl walk to our bed, climb over me and snuggle in between her parents. Sometimes, she will just climb to the side of the bed and position herself comfortably. She doesn’t care what’s happening, but continue sleeping. So Mommy gotta share pillow with her. And I gotta sacrifice my pillow which I use for hugging to put behind her so that she doesn’t fall off the bed.

Look at the picture and the way she’s sleeping…so relax..like a sleeping buddha LOL.
