Family Photo

Our second family photo is now officially published hehehehe ... (lebayyyy deeehh ;p)
Well, we actually made this photo for our church's directory book...
Since we didn't get good opportunity to take a picture at church, we did it at home and sent it to the person in-charge via email...

Tied Up by the Seat Belt

Hihihi .. finally this morning we tried to put her in the stroller and tied her up securely using the seat belt...
The seat belt is so cool ... It secures her upper and lower body at the same time...

Found the Seat Belt!! Yipiiii

Hahahaha ... finally I found the stroller's seat belt ... It was hiding under some messy stuffs inside the kitchen cabinet huehuehue...
Gabyyyy ... mommy found your seat belt honey .... hehehe

Relaxing in Her Stroller

Well ... due to her sitting practice, we made an adjustment to her stroller...
We adjusted the stroller's seat position into half-sitting position... so that she can practice sitting more and she can take a look around with wider sight whenever we take her out =)

Hihihi ... Mommy where's the seat belt?
Don't you know that we will be fined by the police if you don't put the seat belt on...

Hehehe ... actually ... I still can't remember where I put the seat belt ... I took it off a few months ago because of course she didn't need a seat belt in sleeping position... Yet I have no idea now where I should look for the seat belt ... hix hix...
I'm sure it's somewhere around the house ... but whereeeee??

Learning to Sit ^_^

Last Tuesday, we went to Gaby's pediatrist ... And he said that he wanted to know whether Gaby has been strong enough to sit without support ...
He laid her down and pulled her both hands up till she was in sitting position .... And ... she sat by herself!! Waoooo..... I was stunned ... I never thought that she was strong enough to sit by herself ... Well ... even tough her sitting position was not straight yet ... I was so elated!!
And the pediatrist told us to put her in sitting position whenever she plays.
Gabyyy ... you are such a smart baby hihihi ... Mommy loves you Gaby ... cup cup muah ^^

Learning to Sit ^_^

Nyam Nyam Kriuk... Kriuk...

Gaby has a new habit these past few weeks...
She puts everything she could reach inside her mouth ... including her own five fingers (not only her thumb ... but really really her five fingers!!)
I and her grandma thinks that probably her teeth are about to grow .. that's why she likes to chew alot!!
All of her toys are becoming the victims as well hihihi ... She tastes them whenever she reaches them huehuehuehue ...
Well, one of the book that I read said that it is the baby's way to fulfill their curiosity of new things... hmm hmmm
I'm amazed of how babies learn as in fact "Babies are the most genius creatures in the world!!"

Hmm .. hmmm... my ball tastes sooo good! hihihi

Sunday School Story: "A Good Shepherd"

Once upon a time, there was a little lamb which lived together with his herd in a farm.
They were taken care by a loving and caring shepherd. The shepherd always reminded all of his sheep not to separate themselves from the group.
Every day they were taken to a wide green field over a hill... the little lamb really wanted to walk further and find out what's there on the hill...
One day, the little lamb could not impede its curiosity and decided to wander alone to the hill...
Yet, the little lamb fell down to a deep cliff ....
At evening, the shepherd brought his sheep herd back to the farm ... He counted his sheep and found out that he missed one.... a little one ...
Then he searched for that little one to the field... to the hill ... and found it in the bottom of the cliff eventually ....
He held his little lamb so tightly and brought it home safely to the farm ...
Since that moment on, little lamb promised to always listen to his shepherd and follow his order... because the little lamb believed that his shepherd is a good shepherd who will give his life for his sheep
THE END =)

Jesus is our shepherd... a good shepherd... He gave His life for us, his sheep ... so listen to Him and follow His order...

John 10:14-16
I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me—just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.

Pigtails ("Kuncir Dua")... hihihi ^_^

I always wanted her hair to be pigtailed.... yet it was still too short before...
But this morning ... finally I could do it ... even tough it was not too tidy yet hihihihi

Btw... I just found out the word "pigtails" from wikipedia (my favorite online encyclopedia).

Pigtails are a hairstyle in which the hair is parted down the middle and gathered into two symmetrical bundles, like ponytails, secured near the scalp. In some English-speaking regions, this hairstyle is referred to as "pigtails," but in others, the term "pigtails" applies only if the hair is braided. - wikipedia.

Having Fun with "Papi"

"Jet coaster", "bouncing body" and "mirror peek-a-boo" are games that Gaby loves to play with papi ;p
This morning she had another fun games session with papi before papi went to work hihihi

Nite Nite Gaby ^_^

It's 8 o'clock!! My little angel has been sleeping tightly since a couple of minutes ago...
Looking at her cute face ... chubby cheeks, slanted eyes, big nose (;p just like mine), thick hair .... making me more and more grateful of having her .....

Oh Lord... I can never stop being thankful for Your greatest gift of all .... Amen ...

Nite Nite Gaby .... Sleep tight ... Sweet dreams .... Mommy loves Gaby so so much.............. and Jesus loves Gaby very very much .... muah muah :-* :-* :-*

Little Football Player

Found this ball in the garage when papi finally had the intention of tiding up his messy stuffs.
I bought it last year for my students' performance (we wrapped it with silver metalic paper and used it as a fortune teller's crystal ball hihihi)....

We came to an idea of giving it to our little Gaby.... and surprisingly... she loved the ball ... she wanted to hold the ball with her hands ... yet since the ball was too big ... she used her legs as well hihihi ... she's so creative.. isn't she?... hihihihi

So, she ended up playing with the ball all day long .... =) even Mak Tien and Engkong Kiem Sing joined the fun =)

Easter Celebration

Happy Easter!! It's a day to rejoice and be happy! The Lord has risen!

The atmosphere of Sunday School today was sooo crowded as the Babies class and "Balita" class were combined ...
As usual, we started with some songs... and continued by story of the rising of Jesus Christ....
And then ..... "EGG HUNT"!!!! Yayyyyy ... yipiiiiii...........
Since most of the participants were babies and little kids.... of course the mommies, daddies & nannies were the ones who hunted the eggs hihihi .... (including me ;p)

I and Gaby started our hunt around the classroom and then ... GOTCHA!! We spotted a big round egg in one of plant's pot at the corner of the room... hihihihi ... Good job Mommy & Gaby!! ;p
The egg was exchanged to a goodie bag, a slice of pizza and a game ticket!!
Yipiiii .... A goodie bag full of chocolates and cookies and a slice of pizza for Mommy & Papi (huehuehuehue... sorry Gaby!! ;p)

After papi met us in the church's front yard, we rushed in to the games arena ....
Huhuhuhu ... most of the games were for big kids .......... (mini golf, bowling, bangle throw, ....)
"Fishing Arena" was the most exciting one... we were given a big plastic bag and a small net to catch the fish ... hehehe we had much laughter watching papi struggling to catch the big fish ...

We put the fish in a bucket .. hopefully they'll survive there =)

3D Pop Up Book ... So Cool!

First time seeing this 3D pop-up book on the internet, I fell in love just in the moment....
It's so cool!!! We can create our own story with the 3D environment!!
So, without further consideration, I placed my order.... and today the book has arrived!!!
As what I imagined, this book is totally cool..... look at that 3D fairy treehouse!!
Can't wait to show it to my little Gaby ^_^

Chew! Bite! Chew! Bite!

Chewing and biting her teethers (and almost everything else that she managed to reach) have become her hobbies these past weeks....
I'm wondering whether her teeth is growing soon ... but usually baby's teeth start to grow by the age of 7-8 months right?? She's still 5 months!! ...
One book that I read recently said that the high passion of biting and chewing could happen months before the teeth grow ... so I guess that's what happen to her hehehe....

So now for her one teether is not enough .... two would satisfy her ... what about three?? hehehe never try it ;p

Have fun with her penguin and bumble bee teether
