Self weaning?

Woohoo, mummy was over the moon when i finally attempted to fall asleep without nursing.
I have been nursing to lalaland since i was about 7-8 months old till now.
Over the past 1-2 weeks i have been on a sudden growth spurt, requesting formula milk like 2-3 times in 2 hours. Mummy will make me 100ml of FM, followed by 60ml of FM and another 60ml of FM all in 2 hours or so. I usually can't even finish 120ml of FM, leaving about 40ml behind. So mummy was excited to see this sudden change and anticipating some changes in my usual sleeping routine. Well, mummy attempted to put me in bed at 10.45pm but i was like an energiser bunny and was role playing and playing games with myself. Soon it was 11pm then close to midnight. I started to rub my eyes and asked mummy for some FM. Mummy made a bottle for me and i quietly laid on my mattress and finished the milk.
I tossed and turned for another 15 minutes before i drifted off to sleep. I hope this brings some consolation to mummy that i am learning to wean myself off mummy's milk. I know she is keeping both her fingers and toes crossed that this is really going to be the end of her breastfeeding journey.

Bye Milk!

Time flies and 2 weeks passed so swiftly. Serene Yi yi and uncle Chia Ren came to fetch milk milk back home on 26th Dec. Though the time i spent with milk milk wasn't long but i have developed a good relationship with him.
Mummy did mention to me several times that milk milk is going home and each time i answered cannot. I was reluctant to let milk milk go. I am used to having milk milk in the house and bringing him down for a walk everyday. And the times where i pretended to reprimand milk milk saying "no fighting". I also like to bully him by pasting pooh bear stickers on his back and pushing him away. However the time came and separation is inevitable.
I cried very hard when Serene Yi Yi took the leash over from me and carried him away. I screamed and wailed... so sad. I cried so hard that caused me to vomit. Mummy had to coax me by giving me a bottle of yakult.
Well, i do hope mummy keep her promise to bring milk milk back here for an annual vacation.

This is Kaylia and she's the birthday girl. She is wearing a very nice tutu dress.
The theme for the party is Mickey Mouse and i was elated to see all the mickey stuffs. So happy!

Pre Christmas Party with Nov 08 Mums & Babes

Me pigging out first before the guests arrive. Mummy prepared fried mee hoon, steamed corn and meat patties. We also ordered KFC delivery, chicken pies and shepherd pies. Finger licking good.
Very pretty cupcakes from Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf ordered by E-wen auntie.
Let's all dig in...
Zachary and me posing for the camera.

War zone.. Keke..

Mummy hosted a pre Christmas party for her Nov mummies friends and babes. It was a very nice gathering for all of us. Though initially i was reluctant to share my toys with the kids and screamed and cried. Soon i guessed i warmed up gradually and we played together.

Evening @ T3

Chloe, me and Caris at Changi Airport Terminal 3.
Ma, look! Balloons!
Kids indoor playground at T3. There's also an arcade nearby.
Snap snap! Grandma and me.
Look at the slide behind us. I went on the slide with Auntie April 3 times and once with Mummy.
Mummy was initially a little afraid to go down the slide. It's not scary at all, it's fun.
The enchanted teapot which dispends coloured balls every hour from 7pm to 10 pm. The colour of the hour at 8pm was PINK and i happened to get a pink ball. I got to take a lucky dip and i got a silver ball. The prize was 2 sweets and 2 tokens to go on the bigger slide at T3.
A smaller play area for kids.
I like to carry babies but why Kady look so scare here? I try to be gentle and not drop you okay?

@24mths developments

The much talked about and feared terrible twos stage had finally arrived... Mummy has been really disturbed by the way i behaved. If i want something, i mean i REALLY want it NOW! Floodgates are easily activated and i am such a cry baby. I guess the easiest way to get what i want is to cry, scream and sit on the floor, refusing to bulge. However it doesn't work ALL the time.
I have also become a selfish person. I don't like to share my toys or food. I only share if i'm done with that particular toy/food. I can fight with my cousins and insists they share their things with me but i won't share mine. I am also a territorial person, defending every single toys in my house whenever my cousins come to visit. This often results in a lot of complainings (my cousins will report to my mummy about me) and crying and screamings. Thus, my cousins seldom visit me now. : ( I guess only when i learn to share then i will have cousins/friends visiting me. I am amicable when i go over to my cousins' house to play.
Of course i still have the prettier side of me. I love to sing and dance. I can sing along with most of the wiggles songs. I like to smile and laugh though i get very reserved whenever i see unfamiliar faces. I need time to warm up. I am able to understand more things and likes to test mummy asking her "what's this" and whenever she gives me a reply, i will go "Orh......."
I have learned to keep my toys after playing with it. I say my thank yous but at times i can forget.I like to help my mummy to mop the floor though i usually ended up giving her more work.
I am not actively been potty trained, mummy's kind of lazy to start. She feels that i will eventually get ready naturally when i'm ready. That explains the only 2 successful attempts on the potty so far.

Lucas 1st Birthday

On 17th Nov, we celebrated Lucas' 1st Birthday at their house. Lucas has really nice sesame street themed birthday cake, cupcakes and agar agar. There are simply a lot of toys in their house. I like the playhouse the best cos i can open/close the door, shut/open the window and cook in the house.I kept pestering mummy to carry me to see the cake, cupcakes and agar agar. They are so colourful and look soooo pretty.
Finally laid my hands on one of the cupcakes. See how cute my Elmo cupcake is. I was so happy and smiling away.
Savouring the cupcake together with mummy. I took one of Elmo's eyeballs and mummy took the other. Evil us. Tsk tsk!
