33 month old, growing up so fast

  

since we both at work at least 10 hours a day, five days a week, we have to make the most of our daughter bonding time.  it's sort of sad to leave early every morning during work days, send her to our nanny's house with someone we trust to take care of her and make our quick move to the office before it's too late (most of the time get stuck in the jam).  it is hard to try to balance all the time for work, family, private time for ourselves. 

it's such a blessing to have this little girl who showers her affection on us and still likes to cling to mummy or daddy every chance she gets. knowing just how frighteningly fast babies grow up. we've to say we cling back just as hard. it won't last long. we're going to savor every second.  

Very 1st trip to the Zoo

Weekend can be so much fun, this time we decided to visit petting zoo in Sunway and we wanted to give her someting special this holiday. This is a good chance for her in order to interact with different animals and see things the way she'd never seen before. We took some great photos of Noelle. What i can say is this is a very good bonding experience for us. After all the outdoor 'sunny' play times, she was just too tired & fell asleep in her 'private' stroller. Look at those eyes filled with curiosity.

Honestly, we really can't keep up with her hyperactiveness. But still, we had such a wonderful time on that day!!

One of the winners

Something i would like to share with my friends & family that my girl is one of the winners of which the contest organized by MumCentreMalaysia. Winning the prizes is not the main point of my motive, i just wanted to give her something special and share with her that the picture has brought her the 1st prize in her life (a pack of drypers Drypantz), haha

Melaka Trip

I've been putting off taking a family trip this school holiday because simply couldn't afford to take one, then until a friend of hubby told me about the A Famosa, Safari world. why not? bringing her to the animals world might be a good suggestion. Generally the trip to the amusement park, safari, sight seeing, etc. is designed around my daughter's interests. Yes, i would say that we are just getting to spend time with her and there's nothing better than seeing them have a good time.

Family Trip to Genting

It was one stretch Raya holidays in Oct. we planned to go for a budget & effortable holiday . however, due to the bad economy and rising of fuel costs, cut down spending are one of the main reasons to take into consideration. Of course we want to take a shorter trip or don't want to go too far. We still want to treat our family to something special at holiday time, how about a local getaway? Not to worry! Genting Highlands :) spur-of-the-moment holiday travel, have our daughter's belonging & snacks packed and ready, we begun our journey. Noelle was beautifully dressed & hatted. We try our best to allocate some time every week and devote that time to playing and interacting with her. We all lead busy lives with jobs to do, bills to pay and people to see. Sometimes i would think for a minute and say "What is the most important thing in my life?". As a parent that should be our child, yet how much attention do we set aside without distractions to play or talk to her. Bonding is a series of steps in our lifelong growing together with our child, it is not just the initial contact after the birth.

Noelle first visit to Subang Parade

last night we had our dinner at Subang Parade, also Noelle's first time been there. She looks happy at the location and try to explore as many things as she can. We let her ran all around the places, of course we always keep her in sight. We had a good time with her cos both of us are busy due to our hectic schedule during weekdays. Outdoor play is essential for my child's growth & learning. Daddy & mummy are looking forward for our next weekend family day.

Becoming Independent

Noelle is busy forming her own identity. She can stand well,walk well, put objects back in container. The most unforgettable words other than 'mum mum', she can even call me 'mama',daddy 'dada'. Am glad that she perform well in learning progress. she can respond to simple instructions and of course love watching animation and laugh at funny things. when she doesn't like anything or refuse to accept, she shake head to represent 'no'. very funny.. i wonder if i could spend more time to bond with my girl ..
