My little girl is standing up!

I know I seldom blog about little darling Natalie. My bad. :).. But she has been keeping me very busy when we take care of her ourselves.

Today she achieved another big milestone! She stood up in her playpen with support. :)

23rd March - Standing up with support
She's definitely very different from Eunice. I do think she has lots of my gene! This is what I wrote in my facebook today. EG and Eunice were napping upstair so today it was only me and Nat's time together. :)
  
23 Mar: Doing some ppt slides while leaving the small girl crawling herself, and my little explorer crawled from the living area, to her play area, then to the study room, and crawled out to underneath her high chair, talked to some pest at the corner, and continue to crawl into the oily wet kitchen and got caught out and "quarantined" in playpen.. and while I continue with my ppt slides, from the corner of my eye, I saw my little explorer standing up in her playpen.... :)... @ ~7.5 mths...


Such a cutie! Muakss! :)

Eunice's Love Language

Eunice definitely has her father's gene. She needs assurance, love, hugs, kisses to feel secure. :)

She always wakes up from nap crying, asking her daddy to hug her or carry her. Initially we gave in, but after a while she's getting overboard so we have been telling her she cannot cry after she wakes up, else we'll scold her or even beat her. If she needs a hug, just tell us and we'll give her. Don't cry. We told her not to cry before she sleeps, and will really keep to our words - No carry or hug until she stops crying. And if she gets overboard, she'll meet Mr Cane.

So, she has been quite good. But at times, cane will come out.

And after the whole incident was over, and everyone is already in happy happy mood. While we're going for dinner, in the car, she asked EG.

Eunice: Daddy, you love me or not?
EG: Of course I love you..
Eunice: Then just now when I cried why you no love me?
EG: (preaching mode on....)

It also happened before that after a big scolding from EG, after everything settles and everyone in lovey-dovey mode, Eunice will ask her daddy again..
Eunice: Daddy, you like me or not?
EG: Of course I like you. As long as you are a good girl and don't cry :)
Then hug hug..... :)

Wahahahaha! Hug, is my Eunice's love language. :)

Eunice is 3!

Eunice is 3 years old! How time flies.
EG and I always think she's growing up so fast, and she's such a big girl already. Last year when she's only 2 years old, she still look baby-ish, but now, look at her, she's growing up so fast and she's a big girl now. :)

I have been thinking about her birthday months ago. After thinking for a long time, we decided to have her party with her friends in her babysitter's place, rather than having me inviting my friends for her party - which she might not enjoy in the end. I am glad that my babysitter allowed us to do that. :).

My previous baker who baked Eunice's 1st & 2nd birthday cake couldn't bake for me this year because she's too busy with work. Hence, I got a recommendation from another friend. And EG has been telling me to have a totoro cake for her. It's one of her favorite cartoons. We had a very simple party at 5pm, all children already had their dinner. Hence it's just eating the cakes, and having some drinks and jelly, oh ya, and of course singing the birthday song. Eunice loves it. She still mentioned about it once a while that Bryan took the totoro's ears, and Jayden blew the candles, etc. :)

On the first day of CNY, my parents in law also bought a cake for Eunice for a simple cake cutting and birthday song singing session in Taiping.

And we went back to Miri for CNY this year. My sister bought cupcakes for her beloved niece. She has been asking Eunice if she wants a nemo cake or a garfield cake. But Eunice will give different answer everytime. Hence, my sister asked the baker to make 6 nemo theme cupcakes, and 6 garfield theme cupcakes. Gosh, my girl's eyes just went BLINK BLINK when she saw the cake! :). And in the few days in Miri, she just kept mentioned MY garfield cake, and MY nemo cake. I guess she's really a happy girl.

For a 3yo girl to have 3 different birthday parties, I think she's too spoiled. Hahaha! A friend commented that it's like a wedding! Having parties in different places. Anyway, at 3yo now, she has her memory and I am glad that all her grandparents could celebrate her birthday with her this round.
