Jaden at 20 months - Teaching Grandma Tortoise

We laugh repeatedly after we hear this from mum:

"Your son hands me the book and I teach him - wuu guii (means tortoise in Mandarin). He stares at me hesitately and told me confidently and loudly - tortoise! bath bath! - (to Jaden it means the tortoise is having bath inside the water.) Whoah... you see he is teaching me.."

Clever boy, we pat him. You are teaching popo that is tortoise and tortoise is bathing in the water. Good Boy. Next time you can teach popo again, okay?

Never underestimate what a 20months baby will know.

Jaden's Chewable Vitamin C

Its a routine now having vitamin C each day. He would go to the same place, get a bottle with the bear picture on it, come to me and say "Mie.. miee... bear bear..". Yeah, he is easily being taught. To recognise the Vitamin bottle of his. He loves the taste of Amway Chewable C - I hope he didn't misunderstood those are his snacks or sweets. "One per day only, Jaden...." Yes, he request for more now, more food, more drinks, more of this and that...Well, sometimes looking at his cheeky face, you won't say no. Spoilt Brat! ;P

April's New Nanny

It has been weeks seeking a new nanny for April. We had enough reasons and excuses from the previous nanny. Taking care of 5 children at a time, telling us the maid runs off, April dont seem to get any attention and doctor has alerted on her slow development.
It wasn't easy from phone calling to meets up, chatting ie. interviewing, scanning through the place and environment, the nanny's experience and the pricing. Finally the day has come - April will be at new nanny's place for her first night tonight.

Anxious yet excited I am, our car reach the carpark of an apartment. To my mass surprise, we were greeted by nanny and her 4 children of 12th, 11th, 10th and 9th of age. They anticipated April's arrival so much, I could see and I can sense that April will be well taken care of here. Nanny carrying her while the children take care of her matress out from the car, one lead way to their house and yes, April is the princess. Its like a VIP arrival.

I took the baby items off the baggage while the children waited, here's the powder, the lotion, here comes the toys and the shirts and the pacifier. As they look on, I observed their eyes of excitement and wonders. Nanny took April for feeding and get her pyjamas on. You wouldn't imagine how warm is their welcome. The children are just too sweet to be mentioned - they are just too sweet. Each grab a toy playing and talking with April. Living in a small room apartment, their relations is a perfect example of a lovely home. 4 childrens is so close, it reminds me of my childhood. I lay myself on the bed - it just feel so cosy.

I could see April is happy being there, she is now the main attention and attraction.
Being a parent, I couldn't ask for more - she deserves to be loved.
