Oranges..Oranges

I first introduced the word Orange to Thaleia by giving her a bowl of small oranges and she loves it. Since then, when she sees anything in the color of orange she would say excitedly.. "Orange!". It's been a long time since she had them so we got some prepared for her last night, to her surprise! Here's a short clip of her eating oranges..only when she's eating oranges will she cooperate with my instructions..pardon Mummy's irritating voice...

And saying "no more".....

Bye!

My Weekend Comprises of..

Morning Breakfast at a hawker centre..

Bouncing off sofas at a furniture shop..

Watching Daddy break eggs..

While I eat my little piece of bread..

Of course..weekend is never complete without a ride with Barney!

Giggles Giggles

Somehow this bubble fan-gun just cracks her up...especially when it's playing with Daddy.

Practising Hand-Eye Coordination

Months ago, Thaleia used to enjoy playing with this fishing boat. Kept the toy back in the box for a while when she got bored of it. This week I took out the fishing boat again. But we realised the little one has long forgotten how to perform her fishing. And she got frustrated trying, she screamed and had Daddy coming out of the bathroom wondering what has happened.
Well, it took a few tries before she got the hang of it again.

Here's a clip of Thaleia hooking up 8 fishes..

Going to keep the fishing boat again and test her 1 week later. It's quite fun to see her grappling with the fact that she lost a skill she used to have and try again. Hehe..

Her First Sentence .." I like this"

Last night, we read 2 storyboooks.
One was "Ten Little Toddlers" and the other was "Dr Seuss's Mr Brown can Moo, can you?". I held the 2 books in front of her and asked, "Which book do you like better?" She pointed to Ten Little Toddlers and said her first sentence.." I like this".
I asked her to repeat it and she said it again. For the past weeks, we hear just 2-word sentences from her, mostly "I want" or "Give me" . It's such a delight to hear her say 3 words at a go.
This morning, Thaleia said another sentence, "I want Zoo"..asking us to play one of her favourite dvd which shows the world famous San Diego Zoo.
We're trying our best not to let her stay in front of the TV but it is tough!
