Happy New Year!

We are all back from Grandma's place. Had Grandma's yummy signature steamboat. Yum yum! Well, as This Mummy was busy eating, dearest Grandma fed Baby Pooh all the yummilicious food. Ok...Mummy did feed Baby Pooh too. Oops, This Mummy just realised that we didn't take a single picture of all the good food! It was so good that we dived straight in into the meal! Anyway, great food, great company!

2009 has been a great year for Baby Pooh and all. It has been a wonderful year, having Baby Pooh in our midst. From hair, to botak, to an abundance of hair. Learning to flip, crawl, move, climb, walk....Learning to appreciate food from simple porridge to the beauties of chocolate...Learning to appreciate classical music with Mummy and all sorts of weird music with Dear Aunts...Learning to coo, babble, talk, imitate others....Learning to enjoy the natural air in the park, the fun we have at home together, the spacious play area in grandma's house, and the playground...Learning to enjoy Mummy's company, Daddy's company, being with all his beautiful Aunts and Uncle, his favourite books and toys...And just learning the ways of the world through his innocence. This Mummy loves Baby Pooh soooooo much.

I pray that God will grant This Mummy the patience, strength and wisdom to teach Baby Pooh. Just as I teach Baby Pooh to be a good boy, I pray that God will teach me to be a good mother,and to be a better person. God please grant us good health.

This Mummy now can't resist adding her favourite song of this time of the year!

No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find
What lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Leanring to walk!

The trip to Malaysia was memorable in many ways. For starters, Baby Pooh decided to walk unaided upon seeing his cousins running about the house. He enjoyed climbing the stairs in the house, enjoyed walking more in the house, and of course enjoyed his time with especially This Mummy! This Mummy and Baby Pooh shared the bed in Malaysia...for daytime naps as well as night time sleep. What about Daddy? Well, he slept on a mattress on the floor! Such sacrifice! And so, Baby Pooh enjoyed the comfort and fat warmth of Mummy beside him each night. And of course Mummy's reassuring taps at night made night time sleep so good for Baby Pooh.

Anyway, Baby Pooh's walking skills sure improved during this trip. This Mummy is so proud of his progress. Well done, Baby Pooh!

Oh no...

Darn, Baby Pooh caught the cold from this Mummy. Sigh. I feel so sorry for passing the darned cold to him. His appetite has been affected with all the sneezing and coughing...and lots of mucus! Eww. I never knew a baby had SO much mucus in a sneeze! It came right out, and even right onto his shirt. Talk about great aim! It was even more disgusting when he sneezed during his feed. He didn't eat too well, and preferred to leave the food in his mouth, without chewing or swallowing, and watching his VCD. Well, a sneeze came, and the food came all out, dirtying his high chair, and dirtying his shirt. The sneeze was so powerful that food also flew onto his body through his shirt. SIGH!!! Had to do a change of clothes halfway through his meal. GRRR. Well, he eventually finished his meal and had his nap, thank God.

Boy is now with my parents. As I'm not exactly in the pink of health either, my parents decided to take him with them to minimize his contact with me. I pray he will get well soon.
