Babywye turns 2!

Babywye is no baby no more, she just turned 2!






Lest I forget, these are what she can do now:

- Sings songs, able to sing ABC, twinkle twinkle, songs from Baby Jojo etc

- Follows her sister. Almost her first thought every morning. Always excited to go down to pick her up from sch.

- When she wakes up, she hugs one of her soft toys and comes out looking for me, sometimes greets me "good morning".

- Drinks 180, 150, 18ml. Started drinking independently about 2 months ago. Likes fresh milk too, but we avoid giving her too much as it's chilled.

- Loves strawberry blueberry durian

- Loves carrot cake

- Can speak in (mandarin) phrases comprising 5-6 words

- Identifies herself as her name, but says "mei mei, mei mei" when she asks for sth, like how we usually call out to her

- Automatically hugs nai nai when we visit. Finds yeye with toys after she's done with dinner

- Enjoys hopping

- Doesn't like to pose and/or look at camera for photos

- Sleeps about 11pm+ to 8+ am in the cot without waking up (occasionally if she does, I'll hush her and she goes back to zzz), then latches/ co sleep with wifey until 9+-10+ am

- Doesn't seem ready for toilet training, she signals only after her poop is out

- Porridge for her primary meals still. Tried rice the other day and she took ages to bite. Adept at self feeding.

- Vocab is expanding rapidly every day! 

- When she hears a commotion, she'll invite herself nearer and ask, "Se mo?" (δ»€δΉˆ?)

- If our response is "huh?" (like, are u sure?), she goes, "Zhen de ηœŸηš„!"

Euro 2020 final

Putting it down for the record... 

England VS Italy , to be played at Wembley. England were the favourites (1.75 vs 1.90).

Busy betted $200 on England to win the trophy, JX and I ate his bet.

The game ended 1-1 and was decided on penalties. England was unlucky. But Jx and my pockets were lucky πŸ˜›

3.00am groggy finals: 

Random notes from Ye

On 2 separate occasions, I was working at my home desk when Ye sat beside, doodled on a post-it and passed it to me:
