My Passport :)
Finally, Ive collected my passport.
There were many verbal votes whenever the topic of my blog was brought up to my Daddy or Mommy.
They were surprised with the kind compliments from friends that are unlikely to enjoy a baby's blog. Like Daddy's soccer mates and even Daddy's men from his army unit. They were talking about my blog in the jungle!
"Look Dad. Im famous."
Daddy and Mommy considered the votes and picked their favourite one from the 5 choices.
When Mommy first saw the passport, she was very upset that the digital printing of the photo was so badly done that my face in the picture was so BLACK.
She complained on the quality of the print and showed the lady who attended to us, the original picture.
The lady then told us that the quality varies, depending on the staff who scans it.
"HUH!" so sub-standard!
See again! the picture was so cuuuuteeee!!!
The lady offered to do a reprint and void the one in hand. This would mean that i would have a different passport number. It didnt really matters cause the passport number was a combination of jumble up numbers that was difficult to remember anyway.
Mommy waited for a whole of 45mins for the reprint.
Though she was still upset that my face has patches of black print, but it was a lot better than the original one already.
Mommy bought matching passport holders for us.
Mine is the pink one of 3 Little Pigs and Mommy's is Snow white and the 7 drawfs.
Mommy could only sigh at their inferior technology that the photo was not coloured.
Mommy printed out 6 passport sized copies and laminated them with my name and age then, written on the back.
They are now nestled in my Daddy's, Mommy's, Ah gong's , Ah mah's, Gong Gong's and Por Por's wallets and purses.
My Ah gong would take it out and hao lian to his friends and colleagues and ask if I resembles him!!

Very ugly hor...
Mommy is very sad.
Sorry, you cannot buy 4-D with my passport number.

im potty trained at 7 months old!
4th Feburary 2009.
i poo pooed in my potty for the first time with plenty of mmmh mmmh encouragement from Mommy!
Mommy always knew i could do it and i made her proud.
since about 1 month odd, i have been having regular pooing time, which is either during, or after my first milk feed of the day.
When i turned 7 months, Mommy added on breakfast of a fruit and cereal to my routine and my poo poo timing would fall between my first milk and breakfast or sometimes, after breakfast.
About a week ago, Mommy thought that she should give it a try to potty train me.
Mommy made a trip to Kiddy palace and studied the amazing types of potty they have these days.
Mommy didnt plan for a fanciful one. But the very traditional red potty bought for her wedding ceremony didnt give any support and it would be more suitable for an older baby.
Mommy love this potty which is like a real life toilet bowl shrinked to one tenth of its size. It comes with a dummy flush too!
Oh...soooo cute!!! Mommy thought.
$89.90
and Mommy shove it back to the shelf faster than she could say "WHAT!"
then Mommy decided on a $12 potty which has a steering wheel in front. It is fixed on and the steering wheel doesnt spin. Mommy liked it that way as she felt that it would keep my hands occupied and i would hold onto it for support.
and Mommy stood there for another 10mintues, struggling with the choice of either a blue or pink one.
As you know... i like blue. But the pink one is brighter and more cheery. Mommy thought that the bright colours would entice me to poo.
Gwen : "Got co-relation meh?"
Daddy thought it was so cute and asked if it was made transparent so that the adults can coo at the amount of sh*t i can make.
So, Mommy made big plans to "Mmmh Mmmh" me somewhere during those timings every morning.
Either Mommy or Cik cik Yani would strip me off my diapers and sit me on the pink potty.
Cik cik Yani made 3 attempts on different mornings and i got angry and cried.
All naked and ready for a shit.
Hmmmm.....
Mommy put me on for the first time and i peed!
Mommy : "No big business deal, but good job Gwenneth!"
Then one afternoon, Mommy heard my 2 loud farts and quickly removed my diapers and sit on the potty. Mommy held my hands and rub my shoulders gently as she went "Mmmh Mmmhhhh!!!"
and within minutes, it was a deal.
and yes, the yellowish brown thing, IS , what u think it is.
Erm... Erm...
Maybe it was coincidence, or perhaps I understand that poo-ing in the potty would be less messy for my bottom.
whatever it is, I made Mommy very very happy.

Little Miss Tooth Fairy
A very kind tooth fairy came along and dusted some glittery powder on my sore gums in early December.
Some nice June Mummies warned Mommy of the cranky nights ahead and she should arm herself with some teething gel from the pharmacy.
While shopping for my stuff, Mommy would also study teething toys in details whether if the parts were filmy, traps dirt or if the paint would flake off.
She also bought me a variety of teething biscuits that are rock hard or the ones that melt in the mouth.
My first few attempts of a rusk. I would just suck and drool a pool of saliva on it.
"Oh Mom, its a tough cookie to crack!"
DUMMIES GUIDE TO A ROCK RUSK.
First, soften the rusk by drenching it with a lot of saliva. Dont worry about your clothes. Your Mom will not scold you as she was the one who gave the biscuit to you in the first place.
Try both ends of the rusk. They may taste the same, but it trains your motor skills of your tiny hands.
Lick, and look at it with love.
Maple syrup version. Smells yucky but taste good.

This time, put on your bibs as the brown ones stains.
You can also make attempts to break it off and explore on the new things that your new teeth can do!!!

Dun worry, Mommy is watching.
Try not to stuff everything inside your mouth.
And finally, cooperate with your Mom as she will be taking pictures of you with the biscuit and you would'nt want something which would embarass yourself in years to come.

The tooth fairy was specially kind to Gwenneth. I was unsettled and refused my milk on a few occasions but a pea size amount of teething gel would relieve my pain and i would doze off to sleep or numb the pain enough for me to suck on my milk bottle.

Mommy monitored my temperature so that she would be first to know if i develop a fever, but thank goodness i was lucky enough to be free from the discomfort of it.
My 2 lower teeth grew quickly and were like little pearlie white rice that sits horizontally side by side on my gums.

Mommy was unable to take pictures of my upper ones coz i threatened to bite off her finger along with very sharp screaming and crying.
Bite your toys.
Nowadays, Mommy could hear me grinding my teeth when she holds me close and would offer me a teething biscuit to bite on and practice on my chewing skills. The earlier Im exposed to chewing biscuits and lumpy food, the earlier i can join Daddy and Mommy at the table for a tuna sandwich. Mommy would also be more at ease that I would be less likey to choke on my food.
But what if there isnt anything to chew on??
Bite your toys.
Or your Mommy's shoulders.
