Planning for Christmas

I've always loved Christmas.

This year, I'm once again looking forward to the festive season, and I want to make Tessa's first Christmas extremely wonderful (even though she is not going to remember any part of it).

We're going to bring her on a road trip to Melaka on Boxing Day. Other than that, I've been thinking hard what else to do for Tessa for Christmas.



I've been contemplating a tree at home. But, I'm afraid it'll become a hazard at home. But I'd really love to have a Christmas tree at home. Haiz... Dilemma.

Preparing for Tessa's First Plane Trip

I've been making a mental note to prepare a list of things to pack into Tessa's suitcase for Bali.

Yes, we are all going to Bali over the CNY. It'll be Tessa's first plane trip with Daddy, Mommy, Ah Gong and Ah Mah. So excited. Well... alright, I am so excited, the little girl has absolutely no clue what is in for her.

A zillion questions zoom past my mind. How many disposable diapers to bring? Can we bring bottles of water and applesauce on board? etc etc etc...

A Rare Quiet Moment

Jiahui took this photo of Tessa when we were at Nora's place to see Baby Ruben. Such a wonderful shot of her! I love it!

She was lying against my leg, taking a break after showing off her commando crawl to the audience who watched with awe. Daddy said she looks like she's in deep thoughts. Well, our girl is a deep one really.

She develops this desire in me to want to craft her spirit. She lets me bask in her love every single day. Hand in hand, we make memories together. She makes me understand what motherhood is all about. Her exuberant innocence is delightful. She makes me laugh. She makes me think. She makes me want to be a better person so that I can teach her right. She makes me marvel at the miracle of life.

I love her.

Posing for Passport Photo

We tried so hard to get Tessa to sit still for her passport photo. The above are what we managed to get from her.

Our Little Cabbie

Wiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!! I love driving around in my little cab!!! It's so fun, I can go from the room to the living room to Daddy's room to the kitchen, all by myself!!!

Hmm... err.. No, I don't think I can take any passengers. You'll have to walk beside me.

So adorable!

Our little girl is getting extremely adorable, now that she has two little teeth and has learnt to crawl and make funny faces.

Mr Policeman and His Fav Girl

Our Little Commando

Yesterday, our little one managed to move forward on her own. Yes, she can crawl now!

But she does so not exactly on her all fours, but rather she does it commando crawl style. Very stylo, right?

Do stay tuned for photos and videos.
