Hello Everybody!

HELLO EVERYBODY!!! This is what Bb greets his daddy and me when we arrive home. To be precise when he sees me, he greets HELLO MOMMY, with his daddy he says HELLO PA PA. A warm welcome home completes our day perfectly. That is one good side of him, always cheerful to see us.

However, I recently experienced very intense scolding with alien words from him during one play session at home. I was speechless. What can I say? I wasn’t there with him 24/7 to nurture and correct him. Sometimes I really am not sure and don’t know how to teach him. Treat him as a friend advising him not to do that sort of scolding before sleeps is the only choice left. Therefore, I take advantage of the quiet nighttime to talk to him and drill good manners in his head before he sleeps. Not sure if he fully understands, I get pretty positive feedback from him like nodding, yea-s and oh-s.

During the weekend, we took bb to a neighbourhood express haircut saloon. There is a prepaid machine, we deposited RM12 before getting an express cut; my gut feeling told me that bb is gonna give me trouble. True enough, when his turn come, he sat quietly letting the girl messed with his hair but it only last for a few minutes before started pulling off the plastic cover around his neck and helped himself jumping down from the high chair. To be frank, it was the first time we took him for a haircut. We had to forgo the cut, as it was impossible to keep him sitting still. Perhaps I need to ask mil for her strategy. My treat of McD ice cream doesn’t work. *Clueless mommy*

We took him to Tien Hou temple for an exhibition of Kuan yin's sculpture sometime ago. Check out the way he posed? :)

I had problems during hair cut sessions too. Every time, Champion refuses to sit. Last weekend, he didn't mind it :)

Same same.. Champion said "Hi everybody" with his hand waving to all when he woke Saturday morning. Everyone was getting ready to leave to St. Anne's feast when he saw them all together :)

Only RM12 for a hair cut??? Here Singapore cut S$10 (RM23)is the cheapest... killer.

My younger daughter screams when the hairdresser starts cutting...

Very handsome boy you have :P

Love the cartoon you have on the header. So cute! You and your son?

How did you do it?

For little kids, I prefer to carry them in my arm. A bit messy but that's the only best way to do it. The kids will feel more secure that way. Remember not to use a electric razor as kids are afraid of the buzzing noise.

Elaine,
Thanks!
Yes, it's me and my son. I drew it on a chinese painting paper with ink pen and scan it to color in photoshop. :)

hijackqueen,
My mom in law used to do that for bb. I guess that's why he feels better snipping his hair with Mil. He seems to be okay with that razor sound. Thanks for the advise.

Dinner. Stranger.

LAST NIGHT was MIL’s birthday. We went for a simple dinner at Mt. Kiara, a Taiwanese restaurant. Bb was excited to be out as usual, trying to show off how to operate his Bob the Builder’s bottle to uncle Jo, Bil. He has been sipping water from that bottle ever since daddy purchased it, which is good, no more bottles in public. He also created rapport with waiter and waitresses there. There was a fat uncle got so fond of him and present-ed him a chopstick holder. (Like that also can. Hah!) Bb showed it to me, it was in the shape of a Japanese koi fish. I told him to return it to uncle, Sri told me he returned but uncle insisted he kept it. UR! Okay! “Well, then you can keep it” I told him. Later, he came to me telling he was scared. I asked him why, he told me the BIG BIG uncle scary. Actually according to Sri, that uncle wanted to carry him, he got scared. Mil told me this - Once a stranger offer to carry bb, he wanted to go with stranger, mil threatened him that if he goes, he will ne
