Fruity gal is 32 months old!

Our fruity gal has grown up!

Our little Xuan is 32 months old now! 4 more months to count down to Big 3. :p

Do you still remember the 1st “fruity gal” posted in August 2008.


See how much I have grown!

Little Xuan has been talking a lot. A lot of imitations of mummy and papa. I can talk like an adult now at times too.

Let me share some with you:

"mummy, when I grow up, I can go to work! I can buy toys (!!!) for you. Do you want Barney?!" (so sensible. So heartwarming.)

"mummy, when you wake up tomorrow morning and didn’t see me, you don’t cry ok? I have gone to work. I will come back early and play with you ok." (trying to act like mummy)

"didi, the ice cream is nice! Next time when you grow up, you can eat. I can share with you. I can feed you!" (wonderful jiejie!)

"didi, you are a baby. You cannot eat. When you grow up, you can eat. I will feed you!" (didi watching jiejie enjoying her yoghurt)

mummy: Xuan, let’s sleep early tonight okie.. mummy is not feeling well.. I just ate medicine. You saw it right?”
Xuan: ya mummy eat medicine!
Xuan: mummy, I give you orange juice tomorrow okie. (so sweet)

(Trying to wake mummy and papa up on a lazy early Sunday morning)
"Today is a beautiful day! Mummy .. papa..wake up, wake up.. good morning!!"

:D


Now I have my little cute didi to share my fruits with. :D

Sky. Sun. Beach. Sand

Xuan and didi had a really nice friday afternoon at the beach today. Mummy and papa specially took leave from work to bring us for a good time at the beach. :)

We had lunch at MacDonald before embarking for a day of fun!

Xuan played at the playground. I love the slide!

We digged the sand and built our very own castle!

Xuan went cycling too! Xuan shall let the following pictures tell the story... :)


Xuan and didi enjoying the breeze.


We are at work!


More work... :)


My cycling adventure!


Good bye beach, sand, sun, sky.. See u again very soon!

Breakfast at Ikea

Last Saturday morning, Xuan went to Ikea and had a hearty breakfast. Papa and mummy thought that we should be able to avoid some crowds if we reach just around 10am when Ikea is just open. But we were not too correct. There were already a lot of earlier morning birds than us at the caferia that we have to walk and stand around for a while to get a seat. One auntie at the counter told papa that there are some uncles and aunties who will reach as early as 9am outside Ikea waiting for the opening hour! We feel so amazed and ridiculed. There is no BIG BIG sale!


Xuan has pasta, fresh milk, orange juice and of course chicken wings! I like it!


I am a sailor!


We walked around and we bought a small stool, table lamp ....

Baby Didi enjoyed the air con so much that he fell asleep while we were having breakfast and woke up 2 hours later we were leaving Ikea!

Mickey Mouse fans!

Xuan and Qiqi meimei have a common liking recently. We are fans of Mickey Mouse! :)

See us in our Mickey Mouse gear!


We decided that this is the best pose!


Haa... our unique princesses dance steps!


Say cheese! We are always happy to see each other! :D

A pig face?

Xuan has been enjoying drawing and painting. Xuan particularly likes to draw a lot of different faces.

Xuan drew this comical face yesterday afternoon.

Mummy: Wow.. Xuan, you drew this face? Well done!
(Xuan nodding and laughing away)
Papa: What face is that?
Xuan: humm... Pig face! hahaha...

Surprises!

Last Friday evening, Xuan has 2 nice surprises from dear mummy and papa.

SURPRISE number 1
An Apron from mummy! For cooking?! Hahaha.. it is for Xuan to put on during painting time! Hooray!

Do you remember that Xuan has started to paint about 2 months ago? I have a lot of paintings in my bag and do you recall that I have even made a party hat with one of my paintings with the help of mummy?

However, I have not been painting for the past 1 week. The reason being Xuan has dirtied a few of my tops. Mummy has been looking for a kid’s apron for painting but could not find it. Toyrus, popular.. none of them carry it in their stock. Mummy wanted Xuan to wear her old tee when painting (recommended by some mummies in their blog) but Xuan didn’t want to. The tee is simply too big, mummy!

SURPRISE number 2
Papa came back with big bag and a wooden structure. With it all wrapped up, Xuan thought that I am going to have a new bed again!? Hahaha..

No… it is a painting board stand! I love it! I am very excited.

Papa exclaimed that he has been looking for one and been wanting to buy one for me! Now Xuan can choose to either sit or stand when I want to paint! The board has 2 sides and mummy said that didi and I can draw and paint together next time. Hooray!!
See how my 2 surprises go well with each other.

Mummy and papa have great telepathy isn’t it?!


I enjoy painting!


Little cheeky artist at work.


I like colours. Colours made my day!

Monday's blues

Today is Monday. Mummy and papa are back to work. This morning, Xuan cried again when mummy got changed for work. I am sad. I want mummy.

Mummy promised me Mickey Mouse and Hello Kitty stickers today when she comes back from work.
