We brought out the gym ball and Jeddy Boy was terrified of it! ;D
Too bad we ran out of camera memory at the crucial moment. Well, let's just say this went on for a while.
Sorry Jeddy Boy... Tee hee hee...

What's That? Wowes!
Sigh... just when we thought Jeddy Boy was getting somewhere with his language skills.... Until I pointed to a bowl and asked him what that was. "Wowes!" And then the helicopter toy... "Wowes!" And then the chair... "Wowes!"
Well, you get the gist of it.
*shake head*
Thankfully though, he only points to wheels and says 'wowes'. Any other item he points to goes by "eh!"
Gosh...
Anyway, it's all very cute to me. ;)
Here's Jeddy eating a whole apple, all by himself. He would have eaten the core as well, if I hadn't stopped him in time.
If you have a toddler and would like to try him/her out on an apple, try the Golden Delicious Apple. It's green on the outside but really sweet. Leave it out on the kitchen counter to ripen further for a couple of days so that it's wonderfully soft and juicy for the little tot.
*Pointing to apple*
"What's that, Jeddy?"
"Wowes!"
*roll eyes*

Wowes!
Jeddy Boy is still a bag of blabbering nonsense even as I write this... but he is trying (though entirely at his whim and fancy)....
So let's give him some credit eh? ;)

Jeddy the Possum
Jeddy Boy's Favourite Game : Chase
Number of players : Two (including aforementioned boy)
How to Play : Give Jeddy Boy a knowing glance and an evil grin (the wider the better), before giving chase. Upon 'catching' him, retreat and hide in a room. When Jeddy Boy come looking and finds you, give chase again. Repeat above till either one of you is tired first. Believe me, it's never Jeddy. ;)
......
In this vid, Jeddy runs into a dead-end. So what does he do?
Play dead!
Sneaky little fella, you. ;)

Finally Recovering From the Flu...
Actually I'm keeping my fingers crossed. After all, I've been sick since the second day of the Chinese New Year. And after three courses of the dreaded antibiotics, my throat is still slightly sore on one side.
Urrgh...
This is the second worst bout of flu I've ever had, the champion being the lung infection during my second year at university, where I almost got pneumonia. I still remember sneezing and coughing up blood, carrying a bag of bloody mucus-y tissue papers everywhere I went. The only 'gain' was that I lost 5 kilos and could fit into my younger sister's clothes. Ahh.... vanity....
Anyway, unlike that time, I could function normally (almost!) and get on with my everyday Jeddy-care business. Well, the 'almost' refers to this incident:
Jeddy usually wakes up around 6 am every morning for a milk feed before snoozing for another couple of hours. Once he wakes, I'll mix his formula in a bottle, give it to him, and leave him to enjoy his snack while I plop back on my bed. Last Friday, however, about half a minute into his snack, Jeddy boy stood up in his cot and went 'uh-oh! uh-oh!', while holding out his bottle towards me. I was pretty drowsy and very much in pain from my sore throat, but boy am I glad I didn't brush him off and ignore him.
That's because........
I forgot to put milk powder into the bottle!!!!!!!!!!!
My goodness. And that silly boy actually guzzled half the bottle of plain warm water before realizing something was wrong!
Apologetic Mummy immediately jumped up and went to add milk powder. Jeddy boy finished the bottle in the end, despite having his stomach half-filled with water. No surprise that his diaper was bursting at the seams by the time he woke up at 8am... ;P
Ah well, being ill and taking care of a toddler full time sure is no fun. You can't take the day off or even a few hours to snooze. I'm very grateful to have an aunt who was able to take Jeddy off my hands for a couple of days though... Can't imagine what other blunders I was capable of making. Yikes!
......
Back to Jeddy boy.
Currently, his favourite 'word' is 'uh-oh!'. He uses it when something goes wrong, such as when a toy drops, when he spills his water, or when mummy forgets to add milk powder. ;D He also uses it when he purposely drops a toy or purposely spills water.
Thus, The Concise Jeddy Dictionary defines 'uh-oh' as a term used at the moment when something wrong happens, intentionally or otherwise.
;D
Here is a video of Jeddy boy using the above-mentioned term. In this case, it's definitely intentional. *snort*

Smiley Jeddy
Jeddy boy is still pretty stingy with his smiles, though he's more easily tickled these days. It's much easier to capture those elusive grins on camera now compared to the grouchy bulldog days. ;)
By the way, Jeddy boy's set of junior teeth is almost complete. Numbering at 16, he only has 4 more molars to go. *chomp chomp*
All sticky and rosy after a round of catch-me-if-you-can at the park.
Official Hi-5 fan (remember how he nerd-danced to their tunes?)
Official Mickey Mouse Clubhouse fan as well (whatever happened to the no-tv-before-the-age-of-4 mantra?? *sigh*)
Fuzzy hair botak boy
Yet another fuzzy hair botak boy??!!
That's me in the last picture. Yes yes, you did not read wrongly. It was me. At the grand old age of 2, and still botak.
My folks resorted to dressing me up like a boy in order to evade questioning from inquisitive aunties who could not make out if I were a boy or girl. Who could blame them? ;D
Still, what was that pair of girly socks and shoes doing with that outfit??!!! That was just gonna make the aunties more confused! *covers face in embarrassment*
Anyway, my point is this: that people have thought that this was a picture of Jeddy. Do we look alike? I think it is in the smile.
What do you think?
:)

Did You Miss Jeddy Boy? ;D
Whoa.... it's been more than a month since I last updated! One big apology to all you Jeddy fans out there! So sorry to have you click on this blog only to find Jeddy sitting on the table all the time! Haha! ;D
No excuses, but Jeddy boy is really demanding so much more of my time and energy right now. Just two weeks short of being an 18-month old, he's well on his way to being a full-blown toddler.
In a nutshell, Jeddy is still a bundle of babbles, crazy (really crazy!) about wheels, constantly testing limits (including that mineral water bottle that he tried to stand on), and oh-well, pretty hairless.
;)
Let's have a vid, shall we? At least this shows his babbling, love for vehicles (he tries to steer the book while being transfixed on the picture of a car), expanding vocal range (until it breaks at the highest note), and of course, his pretty hairless head.
Credit must go to Hubs who filmed Jeddy for 4 whole minutes. Our joker was that focused on the book and picture. Anyway, I took out the boring bits, so this vid is less than 1 minute, in case you were wondering. ;)
Here goes!

Changi Point Coastal Walk
This is the second time we have been to the Changi Point Coastal Walk. And yes, I finally got to eat my goreng pisang! ;)
The first time we went, we ventured all the way to the Changi Sailing Club (to and fro was about 2.4 km). Actually, that was only about 2/3 of the way to the end of the boardwalk. It was a pretty long walk if you ask me. My hips were aching by the time we got back to the starting point. :P Must wear proper shoes and load up on energy (did I suggest goreng pisang?) the next time we decide to walk till the end!
It's a great place to let loose your toddlers, if you ask me. Let them expand all their energy without you lifting much of a finger. Not to mention the fresh salty air and the melodic rhythm of the waves too. Best of all, this place is not crowded, even on a weekend! We are the best-known crowdphobes we know. Hee Hee... Really makes for a lovely morning or evening walk. Oh, and your kiddos will love the boats that putt-putt-putt their way to and from the Jetty.
Obsessive-Compulsive-Behaviour Jeddy having to touch eve
ry wooden railing as he walks.
No wheels but still fascinating
Run Jeddy Run!
To rest your tired legs
Warning: Big lizard spotted at the beach.
Checking out the lion dance troupe making their rounds at the Changi Village hawker centre
And a lovely day it was....

Jeddy's Classic Dance Moves
I can't dance for nuts. So it didn't exactly surprise me that Jeddy's dance moves are less than impressive. It does make for a good laugh though, for now. ;)
Don't forget to check out that droopy diaper!
Jeddy and the-super-nerd dance move
Jeddy needs a drink after all that hip shaking
tee hee hee.....
