A Day Full of Funny Moments

I believe all parents out there will agree with me that our kid bring a bundle of joy to us. Yvette did that too. I realize I have not pen down funny moments Yvette could bring to us ever since I have been actively blogging since May 09. (YTD I only have 373 posts; I started this blog since Jan 08)

Yvette brings plenty of funny moments to us every day. Beside my hubby and me; her cousin, Ting, is the third person who spends most of her weekday off day with us. I am sure she had a good laugh when she is with us.

Today, we really have a lot of funny moments and with this, it had trigged me to pen these funny moments Yvette had brought to us. And also, I think I should start to pen down these moments as it will definitely give me a good laugh when Yvette is much old.

Early morning, my Mum and my sister came to visit us. We planned to go Orchard to get some formal clothing for my mum and my sister agreed to buy some clothing for Yvette too.

Yvette is into umbrella now. (Remember she was my sister’s little helper when we were at Singapore Motherhood Fair.) Since then, she was really into it. Yvette took hold of the umbrella and started to dance with her umbrella in front of us. (We finally brought her this umbrella from Daiso for her last week when we were at Plaza Sing.) I quickly took out my camera and start to snap some pictures. She was really getting more excited as she danced. (Nursery rhymes was the music in the background) Daddy continued to take more pictures of Yvette after seeing her excitement over her “umbrella” dancing moves. (I was doing ironing when I witnessed her dancing. My mum and my sister laughed out wholeheartedly too.)

Warming Up

Her "umbrella dance moves"

(P/S: We know it was kind of dangerous for her to play so. But so far we had been vigilant and let me hope this “activity” remain accident free for her.)

When I was viewing those pictures taken by us on her “moves”, it’s a regret that we didn’t take down any video. No wonder happy and funny moments went off so fast. (She “danced” for 20 mins.)

We went out around 1.30 pm in the afternoon. And today, I decided to “flash” my stroller as I will expect Yvette will need to rest on her stroller for nap. Surprising Yvette wanted to sit on the stroller. (She never sit or rest in her stroller when she is fully alert.) Again I quickly took out our camera and start to snap some pictures.

She really looks uneasy to me

(P/S: We didn’t strap her as we know she wouldn’t be sitting on the stroller for long. And yes, I was right; she only sat for less than 5 mins. But still, it’s a rare experience for me.)

While we were having dinner at Sushi Tei, Yvette shouted “wow” every time when the food was served. (She was pointing at the food too.) Very funny. I am sure she must be very hungry. (The waitress couldn’t stop laughing too.)

The new Sushi Tei

(P/S: Sushi Tei moved from the usual spot to #05-04/05 in Paragon. I love their ambience.)

Remember she will be my future shopping Queen?

She really loves to shop!

After dinner, we entered Fox to get a fleece jacket for Yvette. My sister and Yvette entered the shop first, and then I followed by. The moment they entered the shop, Yvette could drive my sister to the direction she wanted to be, and picked up a top and passed it to me.

@_@ (EYES ROLL)

She started to shop as though she know what was she doing. She reached out for clothing that she could reach and even pointed to my sister to get those clothing to her. She will place the clothing in front of her as though trying to see those clothing suited her.

Alamak!

Where did she learn this from???

But we really laughed out with all our heart in the shop. -.-!

*WARNING*

*Stella, don’t faint when you read this.*

Great imagination! Treating an jumper as bag!!!

I was showing my sister some recent clothing I had gotten for Yvette and Yvette grasped hold of one jumper.

She went to kitchen, (her papa was in the kitchen) and insisted her papa to put this packet of milo into the overall.

*SWEAT*

I never believe my eye when I saw this. (Papa was saying in the background, telling Yvette I will sure reprimand her.)

(P/S: I am too shocked to scold her.)

P/S: Hubby brought something really expensive today to reward himself for working for around 20 years.

 

Up She Climbed

At 17 mths, Yvette climbs like a Monkey now. She will attempt to climb whenever opportunities arise.

She estimated

She calculated

She attempted

Up she climbed

Reaching the top

Yeah! Victory

Term 1 @ Marsden Swim School – Lesson 2

As Hubby worked last Sunday, Hubby took time off to accompany us to Yvette’s second swimming lesson. Thanks Hubby.

It wasn’t easy for me to this round. Yvette cried more than last round and kept asking for Daddy. Most of the cues we learnt today were about the same as per last week. But one achievement Yvette attained was, she manage to crawl from one end to another end of the form mat toward me. But she was crying when she did so. Previously she didn’t even want to stay on the form mat.

After swim, we headed to shower room. They moved in the IKEA changing station into the shower room and made the whole process easier. I bathed Yvette and then dressed her. I left her sitting on top of the changing station and let her play with the powder. This had kept her occupied and I am only one arm length away from her while taking  my shower. (I did a very very quick one. Less than a min.)

After 3 round of practice; bringing my toddler to public pool to swim, I felt we can’t leave home without the following items:

• A (small) Recycle Bag; this allows you to put all the wet clothing into the bag and you can hook the bag at the doorknob.
• A hook; this allows you to put your big diaper bag in the changing area near you
• Food; Yvette got so hungry after the swim and she is fed by me as we walked to the bus-stop.

Term 4: Fourteen Lesson with JGC

Morning was a breeze. I wonder was that the thirteen lessons and bring me bad luck!

The class was very small today. Only 7 babies. And the schedules for the class as follow:

-> Puppet Time: Freddie Frog

-> Good Morning Song

-> Messy Activity: Carrot Collage

-> Snack Time: Honey dew

-> Outdoor Play @ Indoor Playground

-> Music and Movement

Freddie Frog

Carrot Collage

Yvette was friendly to Freddie today. Hmmm, I wonder why there was a change in her attitude. The messy activity for today is doing a carrot collage. Material used was glue, paper cut carrot, paper cut stem, yarn, paper streamers. Yvette refused to touch the glue, (hmmm don’t like sticky feeling?) but she didn’t mind to put those yarn and streamers on to the glued carrot. But I have to finish the craft for her. We have a sharing session with the Head of Department of Early Learning, and this over-ran the time allocated for the play. We rushed off the music and movement with a few songs only.

After the class, we headed to Paragon for lunch and I run some errands after our lunch.

P/S: I have changed the format of updating this post. I wanted to make it simple and easy for me to update.
