A Rare Treat

Jeddy is known to be pretty stingy with his smiles. I've given up acting like a clown just to squeeze one out of him. It doesn't work, plus it's darn embarrassing when done in public.

One evening, however, Jeddy boy seemed particularly amused with the picture on his yogurt pot. So, using that picture, I played a little game of peek-a-boo with him.

And finally caught some 'rare gems'...





























































































My, what big teeth you have, Jeddy boy!

;D

New Haircut

You may remember that not too long ago, Jeddy Boy had a traumatizing experience... in the form of a haircut. ;D

Hubs and I agreed long before Jeddy was born, that we'd never shave our boy 'botak'. So that explains the unkempt style that Jeddy sports. Even when we trim and shave the sides, we left the 'tuft' on top.

Anyway, it was time for a trim, and this time, we bought a 7-in-1 wireless hair trimmer to do the job, with hope that it will be more Jeddy-friendly.

Sure enough, our boy merely protested and squirmed a little during the haircut, and we happily got carried away with the hair trimmer.

The result? Jeddy boy is now almost botak. Haha!

Before: The Mad Scientist Look
























After: The 5mm-All-Around Botak Look























So which one do you prefer? ;)

New Pose?

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

Getting All Excited

Jeddy boy gets all excited over another self-invented 'game. :)



......

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*
