Competition

My baby girl now know how to compete with her sister Qi ning for mummy's attention. Each time when she see me holding Qi ning, she would definitely crawl towards me and wnat me to hold her as well. Every now and then Qi Ning would complain "mummy why you carry Qi Yu and don't carry me?" And sometime she will tell me "I am angry already you don't carry me!" Sometime she would tell me she want to be carry like how I carry Qi Yu and she would act like a baby. I try to give her as much attention as I can but I guess it is not the same as when she was the only child at home!
Qi Yu is very clingy nowadays, whenever I am around, she would clingy to me and not want any other people to carry her. Qi Yu is able to understanding a fair bit of our conversation. For example, when I told my maid to look after Qi Yu while to go to do something, she would quitely turn around and grab hold of me tightly! They are learning so fast.

Phuket

We are planning to go to Phuket in October for a short family holiday, anyone know of a good place to stay that is suitable for family with two little girls? Any suggestion of things to do, food to try and places to visit will be welcome as well. Thanks in advance.

Cinderella

One month from today shall be Qi ning three year old birthday. And she has been waiting for her birthday since DH's birthday in April. Each time when we celebrate someone's birthday, she will be asking "is my birthday coming soon?"
Today, she is 2 year 11 mths and very soon she will be three. She has grown so much in the last few month and pick up so many things. She can hold a decent conversation with people now and her imagination is real good. Here is one classic that brings smile to my face.

She was running around and I saw her with only one shoe on:

Me: Qi Ning where is your other shoe?
QN: I am Cinderella (Show me a big grin)!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For a girl her age, I consider Qi Ning very understanding. She don't make unreasonable demand and most time, we can reason with her and she don't resort to crying or throwing a tantrum to get her way. Sometime I fear I am "forcing" her to grow up too quickly!
She is learning her math without being told that that's math. Everyday she will ask for her sweet treat so we took the opportunity to teach her simple addition and subtraction. She could add and subtract with one hand.
She is a very sweet girl.

Rides

The merry-go-round ride is one of Qi Ning favourites ride. We ask her recently if she would like to see the Royal London Circus or go for the Merry-go-round, she chose the merry-go-round! She said she only wanna see elephant so we decided to take her to the Zoo rather than the circus.

See my baby Qi Yu is also enjoying her ride! Though she doesn't know to request for it yet, unlike the jie jie who would ask to go for the rides every now and then!

This little girl of me is growing real fast and asking lots of "WHY" nowadays. Everything she will has a "WHY?" So mummy has to be patient answering all her why.
Such joy to see them grow.

Genting Trip

Last month we went to Genting for a trip. Qi Ning really enjoy the cool weather and the indoor rides. She was very happy to have an opportunity to wear her "winter" clothes! Qi Yu is also happy to join in the fun.

My baby girl

Haven't being updating my blog, was lazy & kinda of busy as well. Qi Ning & Qi Yu are growing up so fast. Next month, Qi ning will turn three and Qi Yu is oledi 9 mths old now. I have been wanting to post photo of them for a long time but always didn't get round doing it. Mainly also because I don't know how to convert the big file to a smaller byte so I can upload easily. Sorry ya for not responding to fellow bloggers request for photo of my two girls sooner. I promise I will do it by this week.
Qi Yu can crawl very well now and is now looking for every opportunity to stand whenever she find a chance. Of course not standing on her own yet but holding on to something, she can stand and walk along. She loves climbing up to the sofa in our sitting room and she is an expert now in climbing up the sofa on her own.
I think her liquid intake is too little and she is having constipation. So "kesian" her when she has to push through the hard stool. She has been passing hard stool for the past two week and she only poo every three days. I am working hard to help her to move her bowel more regularly. Has been feeding her kiwi, papaya, green and the dragan fruit. Ask the maid to give her more water as well during the day.
I think more teeth is going to sprout soon as she is drooling and bitting more nowadays. Mummy is one of the victim of her sore gum. She bite me when I was nursing so mummy has got a sore nipple now. So every time I have to remind her not to bite mummy! She still doesn't like to drink milk very much.
This little girl of mine is a playful girl, she would rather play then sleep. Every night, after light off she would still try to crawl here and there and will take another half an hour before she sleep even when it is well past her bed time.
She is a sweet little girl.
