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

Joker Jeddy Turns One!

My my, how time flies... my tua pau is now 365 days old! ;D

And he had a mini birthday party with Mummy's side of the family to celebrate his Big One!

Customized piyo piyo cake (inspired by his all-time favourite 'toy', a piyo pacifier chain)


















Pressies! (All wrapped by me... XD)


















Yes yes, you'd probably have guessed by now. It's a piyo-themed party. ;D


















The people I love most in my life!


















And what's a party without a good wrapper-ripping session? :)


















So pleased with his new toy that he goes on a soft-toy hugging spree! (Video is muted for the sake of your ears. :P)

Splashing Rediscovered

There was a time when Jeddy boy practiced his butterfly strokes daily in his little blue tub.

Then he discovered that he could pull himself up to stand.... and thus traded splashing for the bucket of toys on the ledge above his tub.

Not that I have any complains, cos after all, that means I stay dry. Plus it's easier to wash his bum squeaky clean with him standing. ;D

Oh well, seems like the toys are getting ooooold for him and he's back to practicing his strokes...



Note to self: Buy raincoat on the next trip to the mama shop.

;)

......

What's That Face??

This is definitely a head-scratcher for me. I can't figure out what that face means...

Can you? ;)

Snot Boy

Jeddy caught a bug last month... apparently from me... *sigh*

He was snot boy for 3 whole weeks!

Though he did not have a fever and was generally his usual self, it was tough (for me!) to see his dripping nose and to hear his phlegmy cough. Not to forget the medication. Each squirt of that tastes-like-lychee cough syrup into his mouth gave me a heartache!

Oh well, that marked Jeddy boy's first flu.

Yo! My nose is starting to drip... tissue paper please.
























Hurry! I don't wanna eat snot!


















Sigh... who will wipe my nose.......... *blows bubble*
























Bad mummy. Hee! ;D

Slip Up

I know I must sound like the baddest mummy on the face of the earth... but I've always wanted to catch Jeddy's little trips and falls on video... so I can laugh at it all I want as many times as I want!

Wuahahahaha! *snort*

I finally caught it. Jeddy's little slip up. Don't worry, no babies were harmed in the filming of this video. ;) Just a little fright that's all.

Hee hee...



Hubs and I were laughing and clutching our stomachs as we watched it (like 20 times). We even paused the vid at various points to analyze the way he fell and to marvel at how he managed to break his fall with his hand, regain balance using his legs and prevent a knock to the back of the head.

Our little Jeddy is becoming a veteran.

Heh heh.... ;D
