Leah is 11 months old

Apart from the usual dadada tatata, Leah can say mama, papa and she loves making a loud curious OOHHHH all the time. She can wave goodbye, clap her hands, put her fingers into her mouth and say "arhm". 

She isn't walking yet but we still have time. (Elliot started walking on the day he turned 16 months) She "push-walks" in the house with the help of the bumbo and stool, and she loves to throw my shoes out of the house through the main gate. 

We will be celebrating her 1st birthday in a month's time and have not decided on her cake yet. Still sourcing around, most probably non fondant. Thought it will be cute to prepare a smash cake for her too :) but no promises. My DIY projects are not looking very well maybe because I'm so good at procrastinating.

Looking on the bright side, I'm happy to announce the invitation card is ready! 

*checks it off my super long to-do list.

Yup I know I ought to make things work like now but let me go play with Leah for a little while.

Gave her a quick haircut and GW thinks she looks like a cute little 小狗. 

Leah is 10 months old

 Leah is having a ball of a time with her brother's favourite books while he's at school.

 Elliot will never let her touch his prized possessions, never ever. 

And she is basking in happiness right now.

I promise not to tell this time, a little tribute for you turning 10 months old today.

Leah is 9 months old

At 9 months old, she is cruising around the house while holding on to furniture and goes around hunting for tissue paper. She is starting to pull things off the table too. She loves her brother and will chuckle whenever the brother does a silly dance. Her favourite biscuit is Baby bites in carrot flavour and she will jump and squeal in delight whenever you wave the biscuit in her face. She is quite a small frame for a 9 months old baby  (7.6kg only!) though she eats a lot. She is a light sleeper, she wakes at the slightest noise and sometimes I have to literally hold my breath while I tiptoe my way into her room to get stuff.  3 more months to her big ONE. I'm so excited and already into all the planning and what-nots. Am being very ambitious with all the party DIY, hope they will all work out to be fine :) 

Leah is 8 months old

Leah loves her food. She salivate and stares at us when we are eating. She screams when we are slow to put food into her mouth. 

Oh, and did I mention she roars like a tiger?

She loves blowing raspberries (making a noise when spitting bubbles) all day long. Sometimes she will do it right in your face and you get free facial! Her second pearlie just erupted last week and she developed a rash on her face. Nevertheless, we are so thankful and happy to have you and to witness your milestones together. 

Happy 8 months old, our naughty little princess.

Leah is 7 months old

Hi! I'm the little girl with the brown pooch!

*wave wave*

Updates: Leah has been eating solids for a month. 

So far, she has tried porridge, cereal, mashed carrot, apple, pear, banana and pumpkin. Her poop starts to stink since she started eating stuff. She can now sit quite well without support and able to move from place to place and grab stuff using her commando style crawl. I saw her trying to bend her knees while on tummy so hopefully she would be able to crawl on her fours soon. Leah loves interacting with her older brother, mostly in the wrong way like knocking down the blocks which Elliot built and sucking on his toe. EWWWW....

Leah is 6 months old

New milestone - Leah can sit now, on her own! 

She tend to be wobbly when she sat without using her hands to support.

Will need a little more practise to perfect it, you can do it Leah!!

Half a year has gone by just like that.

Sings: Happy 1/2 birthday to you baby! 

BTW is there such a thing call the 1/2 birthday???

 Couple more months to the BIG ONE, meanwhile be good and we all love you so much :)

Leah is 5 months old

Discreetly slip her fingers into her mouth and oom nom nom...

Happy 5 months old to you baby!

We love you so much.

Leah is 4 months old.

Photos of my precious babies :) from my lousy camera phone.

This blog means a lot to me because I would always look back into the archives and laugh at the fun moments we had during our courtship days, marriage life, holidays and of course how we fumbled with two kids. I hope I'm able to keep up with posting her photos
