Because
Recently the little girl likes to use 'because'.
"I can't go out to play because it's still raining!"
"I am so sad because I fall down at the playground my leg pain pain and Daddy said it's ok."
"Didi crying because he's hungry. He wants to drink milk."
"I want to keep my toys because Mommy will throw away! Clean up clean up."
She is now very capable of verbalizing her thoughts and stringing words together into sentences. Conversations with her are getting more and more intellectual.
Day by day we watch them grow....

Dylan's first trip to the PD
Yesterday, we brought Tessa to Dr Chong because she was having running nose and cough. After she entered Dr Chong's room, she sat down on the chair like a grown-up patient. Dr Chong asked her, "What's wrong with you Tessa?"
She answered, "I have running nose and coughing."
Dr Chong wanted to measure her weight and she walked by herself to the weighing machine and stood on it on her own. After that, she walked back to the chair and let Dr Chong examined her. She sat still while Dr Chong used the stethescope to listen to her, she opened her mouth big when Dr Chong checked on her throat. All like a well-behaved grown-up.
Today, it was Dylan's turn to see the doctor. He had serious nasal congestion which scared me quite a bit in the middle of the night as he was breathing heavily and his nose sounded blocked. He even coughed and looked like he was choking.
Daddy suggested going to the PD since Dr Chong was on night duty today. We went to Dr Zainal at Rivervale Plaza. Dr Zainal prescribed a nose wash, nose drop and Zyrtec to clear up his nasal congestion. We will have to keep Tessa and Dylan separated for the time being.
At 36 days old, our little darling weighs 5.35kg! He is growing so fast! No wonder I am aching all over.

A picture of....
Picture this:
Tessa lying on the mattress on the floor play-acting and talking to herself; not in the least bit of a sleeping mood.
Ah Mah sitting on the bed talking on the phone; looking somewhat angrily at Tessa, hoping that she'll fall asleep soon.
Dylan lying on Lao Ma's tummy on the bed, wide awake, opening his eyes big looking at Lao Ma.
Lao Ma lying on the bed with Dylan on her tummy slowly dozing off.
This is the picture of the bedroom next door.
And I am lying in my bed in my room enjoying some me time.

Tessa is a Dancing/Flying Ballerina
My little girl doesn't want to be a doctor or a lawyer when she grows up. She wants to be a ballerina.
And she doesn't want to be a fat ballerina. She wants to be a pretty ballerina.
Every day after her shower, she insists that she must dress in something that will make her look and feel like a ballerina.
She will never reject any request for her ballet performance.
But she is one clumsy and funny ballerina I must say; as she always makes us laugh.

Dylan is 1 Month Old!
Yesterday we celebrated Dylan's full month.
Yes, time flies, our little one is already one month old!
Early in the morning, all of us woke up early so that Lao Ma can perform the hair-cutting ritual for Dylan. After that we proceeded to Lao Ma's house and Yeye's house to pray to the gods and ancestors. We even dropped by Mommy's workplace to distribute cakes to her colleagues.
After that we returned to Lao Ma's place for a feast.
It was a tiring but memorable day.

Daddy's power
Hubby has been great. Every day after work no matter how tired he is, he will still find energy to play and interact with Tessa as well as help me take care of Dylan so that I can rest and catch some sleep.
It feels great knowing that he loves, appreciates and cherishes me in his own subtle ways.
The bonding he has with the kids is almost magical. Daddy is Tessa's playmate; she'll tease him in ways she won't do to anyone else. Tessa came up to me one afternoon and said: "I want Papa."
As for Dylan, he loves to sleep on Daddy's arm. Whenever he cries, Hubby will put him on his arm and pat him lightly to sleep. Perhaps Daddy's arm gave him a sense of comfort and security. I also love to lie in those arms, feeling so warm and protected.
Thanks Hubby, we love you!
