Mommy's Home!!

Dear Yasmin,

We had a great weekend together just you and me. Mommy went back to KL for her friend's wedding banquet, and daddy had to take care of you all by myself. Mommy was very worried that without nursing, you may not be able to sleep properly. She left home early yesterday and we had a great day at the beach with auntie Annie.

At night, we had a wonderful time with other children at Natasha's birthday party. Daddy was very proud of you because you were the only 2.5 yr old child brave enough to sing and dance during the games. We had a great time there.

We listened to music when we were in bed. Suddenly daddy found you tearing, and you told me that you missed mommy very very much. You wanted mommy to hug you. Daddy carried you around the house looking for mommy. Finally you fell asleep, and daddy put you to bed.

However this morning at 5, you woke up and started crying and look for mommy again. You walked out of the room, went to the kitchen, the toilets looking for mommy, then you stood by the house's door, waiting for mommy to come back. Daddy hugged you, and you asked for bread. So daddy rocked you when you ate. You fell back to sleep again, and daddy dosed off carrying you in the chair.

This morning we had a great morning walk in Clark Quay, you loved looking at the sampans on the river. After lunch in China town, you fell asleep, and daddy went to shop for meat and bread mix for the following 3 hours. You were sleep even on our bus journey home.

When mommy came home, you dashed out of the home and straight to mommy. Then you asked mommy for breastmilk again!

Yasmin's first visit to the beach

Dear Yasmin,

Today daddy and auntie Annie brought you to Sentosa for the first time. Auntie Annie's company has a family day at Sentosa and she'd gotten tickets for us. You woke up extra early today, and after a breakfast feasted on pancakes, we started our journey to Sentosa. We took the new Sentosa Express from VivoCity. You loved that train a lot! You had your nose stuck to the window when you saw the harbour and the ships. You loved the greenery and the cable cars. We called them the grapes!

Finally we got to the beach. While we started walking on the beach, you suddenly stopped after just 2 steps on the beach. You squat down, and said ' oh!' then you bent down and started lifting the sands in your little hands, and started giggling. Daddy tried to ask you to ride on the toy trains, you remained squatted, playing with sands.

We had your hair beaded and you looked so cute. Then daddy and you each had a sprayed tatoo. You had a butterfly on your arm, and daddy had a pattern on my ankle. Afterwards, we had a blue flower drawn next to the butterfly.

After a good lunch, daddy took you down to play by the beach. You loved the fine sands, and the sea. You squeled with joy when water rushed past your feet, and you ran away from it, then you chase the waves and tried to throw sand at it. You and Auntie Annie had so much fun. On our way home, we walked past the Tweety Bouncer, and you ran inside and started jumping, falling, laughing and jumping again. Daddy had to catch you inside and dragged you out.

You had such a fun day running around, as soon as we were in the MRT, you fell asleep all the way home.
