activities

thurs 20.11.08

decided to have dins @ delicious with hubs and we've been wanting to buy storybooks to read to her before her bedtime. as we arrived at the restaurant, aira was wide awake and i was worried she might be bored and just decides to scream on top of her lungs, *for fun* but after ordering and all, we observed and she seemed pretty fine. hubs decided to take this opportunity to carry and distract her with by showing her the lights! yes, ladies and gents! she is easily fascinated with lights and fans! cheap huh?

cool eh?

we managed to enjoy our dins without gobbling the food down our throats. according to this book that i'm reading, 'what to expect in the first year' everything you eat now becomes fast food, even if its steak, all new parents would have mastered just shoving everything down their throat! then we headed to parkson, and hubs made his way to mph. he bought the usual classics: little red riding hood, the little pigs and goldilocks & the three bears!

then i got a book by gina ford, contented babies & toddlers! apparently, if you'd like to train your little ones to sleep from 7p.m. - 7a.m. this would be the best for you to follow! it's proven, my girl friend has trained both of her daughters since a day old. impressive.

got home, and prepped the little one, hubs managed to read to her and finally fed her! my-oh-my the excitement in his face was totally priceless! i was so happy. we all slept like a baby right after :)

fri 21.11.08

as i was about to put the little one to sleep, hubs stormed into the room and told us about the great news! remember i said we were waiting for the great news regarding our anchor client? YEAY, indeed its been fulfilled! that means we'd have to shift office to hire a couple of new artists! such a great news for us early in the morning.

did a little work here and there and then called it a day! hihi, yes my bosses would be thrilled to know i did that, but i couldn't help it. teehee.

sat 22.11.08

woke up early today, i was excited because we were bringing aira for her first music class! but she was still asleep, then i got a message from my mom saying that they were going to drop by to see aira for a bit. as they walked in they saw aira smiling and laughing to barney's song 'i love you'... hihi, it was so cute.

mom wanted to bathe her, so she quickly took out her watch and rings and everything else! that was even cuter. after she was done, she carried aira for less than a minute til aira screamed! expressing her frustrations!

haha, mom was arguing with her, "hey, i just showered you and cleaned your pampers and all, by the time i'm done, i'm not even allowed to hold you? you just want to go straight to your mommy? why, aira?" .... "okay you go... go now to your mother!"

i could not believe my ears, my daughter and my mother arguing! haha...

then as i was feeding her, my dad was talking to me... even then she expressed that she wasn't happy. she grumbled.

by the time we got to the class she was asleep, had only been asleep for the last 15 minutes or so... we started the class, and we were introduced to the bunny called 'toffee'! furry and cute.

the instructor was trying to intoduce these things to see if any of the children had any fear of furry things! it's called "doraphobia" the class was all about singing, listening, hand and eye co-ordination, playing instruments, learning to sign and more. it was even educational for me!

the instructor knows each names of the little ones, and manages to identify their likes and dislikes, and you can even seek for advice from her. how to keep the little one busy or how to train them to sign, or sing, or gain their attention.

totally enjoyed our 45 minutes class! another great way for parents to bond and spend quality time with thier little ones! instead of bringing them to the mall and call it quality time.

for those interested to know more bout the class, click here. it's worth a try!
