Liking the rush of blood to your head, Jeddy Boy? ;)

Kiddy Playgroup for Jeddy Boy
I've been blessed to come to know two wonderful stay-home mummies who live just a couple of blocks from me.
Between us, we have four kids - 3 lovely girls and 1 little rascal (;D). We set aside a couple of hours every Friday morning for a get-together at each of our houses. Jeddy Boy is now part of a kiddy playgroup!
Here, we are at France's, and the kids are mingling in the play yard... Oh, in case you were wondering where the third girl is, she's fast asleep in her stroller. :)
This is the lovely Asha, Mummy France's little 8 month old princess. She's got the most sparkling eyes I've ever seen and I'm sure she'll grow up to be a beauty, just like her mummy.
The kiddos mesmerized by Mummy Peifen's and 2 year old Lexuan's singing. Lexuan's sister is 5 month old Zhixuan.
I can't tell you how grateful I am for France and Peifen, along with their little ones. They are now a great source of support and inspiration for me as a SAHM.
Thank God for fellow stay-at-home-mums and more kiddy friends for Jeddy Boy!

Jeddy the Fruit Juice Seller
I mentioned in a previous entry that Jeddy simply loves to stuff his ball popper machine with anything but the balls that come with it. Little did I realize he would make a 'profession' out of it.
Fancy some juice? Though I highly doubt that the carrot+lemon+corn+onion+cucumber+tomato power combi would taste very good.
*eyurk*
;D

Changi Beach
The Lazy Trio family is finally getting off their butt and going somewhere on a weekend.
And it would be Jeddy's first encounter with the saltwater kind..... at Changi Beach!
Actually, I was 'dying' to eat at the Changi Village Hawker Centre. The goreng pisang craving in me was just too much to bear... and not to mention my favourite Ipoh Hor Fun stall. *drooling 100 buckets*
As it turned out, the hawker centre is under renovation. &#$@*%! *collects drool back*
Darn. Darn darn darn.
Oh well, even if I don't get my goreng pisang fix, Jeddy's still gonna get his saltwater and sand... so we walked over to the beach in the lovely sunset.
I'm not sure if it's a blessing in disguise, but the renovation works over at the eatery meant that the beach was pretty desserted. We had a whole strip of untrodden sand all to ourselves!
Definitely a great 'first time' for Jeddy and us crowd-phobes. Our joker boy didn't get to frolick in the sea, but he did get a mouthful of sand. :D
Here's to the Lazy Trio Family Day!
......
A highly enthusiastic Papa telling his uninterested son all about boats and sunsets. *snigger*
Bring me to the beach already!
Here you go!
Throw you into the water ah!
Hey! What's this?
Eeee..... I don't like.....
Our melancholic boy looking out into the horizon...
And promptly ate a clump of sand. *ptui!*
It's SIA! It's Cathay! No! It's Qantas!
And the Lazy Trio Family.
Ok lah, the experience at the beach was worth 1000 goreng pisangs.
Heh heh...
:D

Jeddy Boy's Greatest Nightmare
Whenever I see Jeddy's hair getting long, I'm filled with dread. Meanwhile, the little bugger plays happily, oblivious to what is to come...
After dragging my feet for about two weeks, I finally got down to giving Jeddy his 'haircut'. Well, I'm sure you noticed by now that Jeddy boy doesn't have much hair to begin with. Yet, whatever hair he's got gets pretty ugly when those at the sides grows and sticks out untidily. Using a pair of scissors is out of the question for his hair anyway, so I whipped out the shaver.
And so began Jeddy's nightmare (once again).
Be afraid.... Be very afraid......
Pleeeeaase I beg you Mummy, pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaase!!!!
Getting his head shaved anyway.
The aftermath... Obviously still in a state of trauma.
A trip to the book corner finally calmed his little nerves.
And Nightmare Part III to resume in roughly one month's time. *evil cackle* *wolf howling*
XD

Jeddy Walks
And so Jeddy's toddler days have officially begun... Heh heh... Love how he holds out his right hand for balance.
By the way, Jeddy boy finally wised up and learned how to clap. ;)

No more?
Here's Jeddy feeling very pleased with himself for being able to switch on the light... and then showing 'no more' when he doesn't manage to get it back on. :)
I only managed to capture his 'no more' sign once here. The night before, he was having such a good time practicing his new found skill. :) Yep... this is Jeddy's first hand sign. My attitude boy is still taking his own sweet time learning how to wave goodbye and clap. ;)
He also uses this sign when the crackers in his bowl are all gone, followed by dumping the bowl in front of my face, asking for more.
Since then, he's also learnt how to point at things -- with all 5 fingers! Haha! Whenever I carry him, he'll direct me here and there with a wave of his hand and a curt 'eh'.
How convenient. Then I realized one thing.... Jeddy only learns the signs which are of use to him!!! No more = more biscuits in the bowl. Pointing = get transported to desired destination.
What can I say?
*shake head* *shake head*

Inventing His Own Games...
I wish I could take a trip into Jeddy's mind just to take a peek at what goes on in there. For most of his toys, apart from playing with them the way they ought to be played with, he usually takes them one step further with his self-invented games.
He's especially smitten with balancing items over the edge of the table. Using his fingers, he'd slowly inch the item closer and closer to the edge till it hangs over precariously. The game ends when the item falls to the floor.
And then there's this ball-popper machine which he got from his PoPo for his birthday. Little balls roll down a ramp and shoots out of a chute. Lately, he's been jamming the chute with everything he could find. One morning I found the chute filled to the brim with an assortment of play blocks, plastic fruits and even a pill box! And if that's not enough, there was a book perched right on top of it! My little joker is secretly conducting his own science experiments behind my back...
Loving all oddly shaped items, he would also go flat onto the floor and analyze how each item roll, tip, and topple. The best thing is he looks so serious while being totally absorbed in his little world of child's play...
Cute.
Anyway, having grown bored lately with putting in and taking plastic balls out of a little plastic basin during his baths, he had come up with another game for them. Rolling them off the edge of his bathtub!
Welcome to Jeddy's world!
:)

Hug Hug Hug!
Maybe you've already noticed.... that Jeddy boy loves to hug...
If he comes across anything soft and furry in his path, he'll not let it go without a hug..... and a slobbery kiss... All softies in the house carry the 'Jeddy-scent', which basically, is dried-up saliva. ;D
Hugging his Pooh Bear and dragging it wherever he goes at 10 months...
His favourite cushion with a picture of a mouse underneath. He'll go looking for it if you ask him where it is, and upon finding it, give a shriek of excitement and bury his face in it. :)
Not a moment wasted even during a snack. Here's his simple algorithm. Take a bite, hug till swallowed. Take a bite, hug till swallowed... Repeat till snack is finished.
*Aww........*
And by the way, I love the Jeddy-scent. Mm-mmmm...
;D
