Pick me up!

By -
* Sunday, 17th Feb 2008 7 months & 2 weeks*

Today, twice she did this.. indicating for me to pick her up by pulling my hands towards her armpits, which is where I reach for her to pick her up.

First time, after her solid feed, she was mucking around for a bit, then she had enough... wanted to get out. I was there playing with her and she pulled both of my hands over to her armpit under each arm, and lift her arms, signalling... "pick me up".

Shortly after, she was playing on the floor or something... again she did that. Daddy was watching, too and he was amazed.

Now that I think about it, she is learning faster and changing quite a bit lately...

I've noticed she does similar things last night as I had her on my lap while I was typing. She kept trying to get to the keyboard but I was in the way. So she pulled my hand away so I can't stop her. Again when she was trying to get to the mouse. My hand was on it, she pulled it away, so she can get to it.

Yesterday, earlier in the afternoon, she was trying to get to the remote controller on the couch. She couldn't reach it standing next to the couch, then she was pulling the couch throw (coz it's there), then accidentally discovered that if she keeps pulling, the remote controller gets closer. So she kept on doing that until she gets it!

Hmm.... what a smart little girl!!

I wonder what else she'd be up to next?

Well, most people say that she looks more like dad; some say mum... so I put our photos onto a website for a test... Result #1 - 50/50 Result # 2 - 16% more like dad... Then I remembered that she looks more like me when I was a baby... so.. I put in my baby photo.. Result # 3 - 3% more like mum... (hmm...) Oh well :P Here we have it :P Sally

First day at Daycare

By -
Today is the first day Emma starts daycare. She will be in daycare on Tuesday and Thursdays from now. I also have the person from property management company coming over to take photos of our house for renting at 2pm. So, I was busy cleaning and tidying up the house while she's at daycare. After I got everything done and just got out of the shower, I got a call from the daycare. At first I thought, oh no... but then, they only called to let me know that Emma is okay... just in case I'm wondering but feel bad to call. So apparently she had her bottle shortly after daddy dropped her off. Then went to sleep for 2.5 hours... Had another 200ml and was playing on the floor when they called me around 12:45. She told me that Emma is a really easy baby, so far. Sounds very good! I think she behaves better there!! At home, sometimes she won't go to sleep... gets too happy... Hmm... :P At least we know she's okay in daycare... and mum is okay today, very busy actually! :P Sally

Woo finally rolling over caught on video!

By -
This morning when I was getting Emma out of the bed for her 2nd feed, I couldn't find the camera's memory card. Oh well, so I put her down for tummy time anyway and thinking, I bet she's gonna roll over this time and we'd miss it on video again! Yep! Damn! Later I found the memory card and put her on video again... but it only has 7 mins left! Bummer... I thought she might roll over just as the camera is running out of memory... no no, she didn't. Very close so many times though! But now I know what the secret is for her rolling over... She'd have one arm straight and pushing hard, the other tucked in... and she always likes to wiggle to a certain direction very hard... and babies have heavier heads :P So... she just keeps pulling towards one direction and... way she goes... rolls over. Finally... in the afternoon, when I was playing with her on tummy time again... video on... after so many close ones... she finally rolls over and caught on camera! Yah! (These p...
