I guess for the 1st year, you can see the progress of your baby being quite apparent ..and so all the way through December, i can see his speech as well as his walking skill developing tremendously..at leaps and bounds..pardon the pun hahahah....
he started off with a-ya... then with goo goo gaga ( i mentioned this in an earlier post).. then at some point..his fav phrase was pika pika pika pika.. guess dat means everything and anything to him... so whenever i fetch him.. alone or with his Ayah.. when you ask him abt his day.. at some point he'd launch in with this pika pika pika...heheheh
As i said, he had managed A-ya even a couple of months ago..and mmmy came up some point later... but there was a day quite recently...i heard quite distinctively... muuuuuuummmmmmmmyyyy....albeit said with a whine.. im not complaining..not when it came on my birthday (cue teary eyes..)....but as the glam babes had warned me..once they start..theyd not stop...so nowadays..its ummmy here..mmmy there... mmmmy everywhere a la old macdonald...like tonite, i was in the loo, when i heard a tentative mmmmmy??....chis.. nak pee2 pun tak aman oredi...
but i kept reminding myself and D Ayah that we have to be careful as to what we say , as MIniman has the habit of imitating.. as we malays wd say, ikut mulut... e.g. i would usually say Allahuakbar..usually when im tired and most often when im about to sit down after being long on my feet...so there was a day ..when i said that ..Allaaaahuakbar, and i heard an echo..allaaaubat..of course, ppl wd say im biased seeing that it IS my son..firstborn lak tu..but since Ayah, and my sister also heard it... guess i might have heard right..
another word in his vocab wd be (while hanging on to your legs..) ukung...and the other day...when Ayah said.. makann...he echoed dat too...
Oh and he IS a talker..hahahah..dunno where he gets dat from (cue rolled eyes)...hahahaha.. seriously..only of course i still dont understand most of it..i guess all those would be words sometime soon..till then, i enjoy the listening to him babytalking... no hurry my dear boy... all in good time...

Fun, Fun..more Fun
This happened sometime at the end of November..and early Dec..

Usually during weekends, if we are not going anywhere, Mini Man's get up would be a tshirt..diaper and nothing else..his mummy believes in conservation and why add more to the pile of laundry ANYWAY kan..
and sooo... there we were on a sunday afternoon..where i found him in front of the chest of drawers FULL of his clothes..(i used to put the sheets in it too, but now dah tak ada tempat..but his wardrobe is a nother story)...anyway i saw him pulling himself up and trying to open the drawer..but of course..when one hand pulls but the other actually was hanging on to dear life, pushing the drawer back in..thus it is a futile struggle la...
seeing that the drama unfolding..i took out the phone and thought of getting his photo..but knowing my boy..trus posing.. (hmmm i dunno wats wrong with the internet, but i couldnt seem to attach the photo, but id do it when i have the chance..cause you'd see why hehehe)

The last time we took him to the pool was in july i think..at the time , i had to go to kerteh on business, so D Ayah nicely agreed to come along and babysit the miniman for the 2days i was at the plant.As i finished the thingy on Thursday, i think we took the Friday off and stayed for another night..as miniman turned 6 months at the end of June, so when better to introduce him to the pool kan... 1st anak..so mummy and ayah follows the milestones religiously...
anyway.. before we went..we checked with the paed about the Dos and Donts (but of course..) and mummy got him a spiffy top and cute swim nappy (trunk, mind you) ..etc etc..
but on the actual day..Miniman was having the sniffles..so, the debut was cut short...
fast forward to November... eventhough we ARE staying in an apartment complex complete with a pool, we never seem to be able to make the time to go there...until 1 day, i decided that we MUST...(mummy needs to get some exercise too).. anyway...down mummy and miniman went to the pool..and we found the water to be too green (aiyaaa..tak clean up lagi ke)... but since i have promised him.. we did the next best thing..
i told D Ayah to take his bath tub out..set it at the balcony... ( we are 13 floors up)... and got him ready in his swim attire... fill the tub up...and chuck him in... hehehhehe
at first , he was kinda surprised..i guess he is used to having his bath aunaturale right..but after a while.. the water and the bubbles we were blowing just drew his attention away ( oh yes..mummy and ayah had fun too..dats the whole idea aint it..)...
At the end,... as the clouds rolled by.. we had to call it a day..eventhough it was not the pool, i think it was a different kind of experience for him.. :-) and us too...
look at him :-)..wouldnt you had fun too??.jpg)

Sometime in Nov we went to KLCC park and introduced the miniman to the joys of the playground... he had fun going through the tunnels and the slides(with me holding him, or sliding with him heheh)... so we thought we'd do it again..
this time we explored further.. i guess it is kind of liberating for me too..i am not exactly a control freak.. but i do like things to be just so.. and when i had miniman..i had to let go a bit, and be more relaxed..it does help that d Ayah is more easygoing in nature.. but i do digress..
Miniman being essentially the 3rd child between me and the glam babes..i have had the opportunity to learn from the glam babes' experience...and whilst Big A is not into 'dirty' stuff, Little A is..thus why on that saturday..i let my son, crawl all over the playground , on his hand and knees and closed my eyes to the dirty pants and dirty hands..hands can be wiped clean ( we got dettol hand sanitizer ready ehehhe) and pants can be washed..but the way his eyes lit up... when he explored the nooks and cranny, well... he can get used to little bit of dirt la.. hehehehe
and soo... dats us..having fun..as i said... i was kinda skima..and sometimes very prim and proper..ie i sooo mind the ps and qs... and the dos and donts... but now , with a baby..a funny, happy baby... i have learnt to let go... i have learnt not to mind ( too much ) about what people would say... and i had fun again..baby steps..baby fun :-)
