First CNY with baby :)



Wow! We had so much fun over the past few days...but it was also very tiring. I think Candra en enjoyed herself tremendously, especially the part about moving from house to house... the changes of environment. :)

CNY Eve

We made a trip to JB. We managed to get a lift from a relative so that saved us a lot of trouble. We started the journey at 3pm and reached at 430pm. Thankfully, Candra slept almost throughout the whole car journey... that was wonderful cos we were worried she might get really upset with the traffic jam. When we arrived, she took a very short while to get herself adjusted to the new place and thereafter it was just a lot of fun for her :) Hubby's relatives enjoyed her! She enjoyed all the little snacks too.

CNY Day 1

Started the day with church service. That was refreshing. Thereafter, it was just moving from one place to another. First, we headed for PILs' place, then to hubby's grandparents' place, then finally to my parents' place. Candra hardly napped that day but she thoroughly enjoyed herself... :) She had some trouble falling asleep at night though cos she was over stimulated in the day i think.

CNY Day 2

We decided to rest more this day. Had lunch with elder sis and cousin at Xin Wang Cafe! That was what we did last year, just that Candra was still in my tummy then. The lunch was great save that Candra happily decided to reject her porridge and demanded that we fed her ours. In the end, I had to get her steamed bread to satisfy her desire. After that, P came over to have some fun with the little kiddo. Visited some relatives of mine at night and again, Candra had loads of fun exploring the new environment. Sitting, standing, crawling.... :)

CNY Day 3

Woah! CG gathered for our annual CNY visitation. Started off at my place, then off to another 3 different homes. We were so thankful that Candra cooperated with us well... her naps fell at the right places in between stops and she was generally happy throughout all the visits, no cranky behaviour at all. BUT... haha she had so much fun that she cried so badly when the day ended with us putting her to bed last night. She was so so so so upset.... :(

Well, we are hoping she doesn't have "Wednesday Blues" today cos the excitement's all over for now. :)

Oh ya! A few days back, she suddenly hummed the tune of the first line of Amazing Grace. We were stunned cos we had never sung that song to her before... Think it just so happened that she made up that tune herself.. but seriously, we were shocked!! And she repeated "Al-fant" twice on two separate occasions when I said "Elephant"! That shocked me too! haha..Hubby and my sis said they heard her say "Candra" too....hahaha... I did not hear that.

She's been blabbering a lot more these few days.. think she's trying to talk. So cute!
