My mama's birthday

My papa and I have been secretly planning my mama's birthday party for some time.

Like Spot in the story, Claire-claire made my mama a birthday card and baked her a birthday cake. My papa helped a little of course.

Claire-claire especially enjoyed sticking and removing the candles from the cake and singing the birthday song...

...and of course, eating the chocolate cake that Claire-claire baked.

We rock!

Rocking with David is fun! Claire-claire hopes he is enjoying it as much as I do.

David's Chinese Name

My papa and mama finally decided on David's Chinese name. It is 黄靖恒.
靖 means peaceful and tranquil while 恒 means perseverance (as in 恒心) or eternal (as in 永恒).

My papa and mama hope that David will be level-headed and has the courage to try and to take things to fruition.

As for me, Claire-claire just thinks that it is a nice name.

Baby Pimples

David has a breakout of baby pimples. They're all over, what my mama calls, the T zone and some parts of his cheeks. Claire-claire hopes that they will go away soon.

Colouring

Adding colours to Mickey Mouse and his friends is one of my favourite activities now. It is the most fun when Claire-claire does it together with my papa and mama.

First day at school

It was Claire-claire's first day at school yesterday. My mama packed my school bag and got me ready for school early in the morning. My papa and ah-ma brought Claire-claire to school.

At school, Claire-claire tried to co-operate with the teachers by allowing them to check my temperature, my hands and feet. But, it was too much to bear when they wanted to check my mouth too!

When it's finally over, Claire-claire ran into the back of classroom to play with the building blocks. Claire-claire had so much fun in school that I didn't notice that papa and ah-ma were not there!

Claire-claire likes school. It is as fun as my papa, mama and ah-ma tell me. Claire-claire is happy that we're going there again next week.

My di-di & I

My di-di finally arrived on 30 Dec 2008. He weighs 3.53kg and is 50cm long. Can you tell us apart?

Proud Jie-Jie

Claire-claire is now a proud jie-jie!


And here's our new family portrait, taken with the big doggie which is a present from di-di.
