Baptism

David was baptised last Sunday. We become children of God when we are baptised.

David was dressed in white, symbolising purity. My mama made me wear a lovely white dress to match David. My mama thinks we looked angelic!

There were many babies in church, but David was very well-behaved. He slept through most of it and only woke up twice: when Fr Mike made the sign of the cross on his chest with chrism oil...

and when he was baptised with water.

And who is David's Godpa? Here he is!

Eating rice cereal

Can rice cereal be as delicious as David makes it look?

Maybe Claire-claire will try some.

Adult food

David thinks he is a big boy. He has been looking at the food we are eating with much interest. So, Ah Ma tried to feed him some potato and carrots last week. But, David is a small baby and has not learnt how to eat from a spoon.

Today, Ah Ma give him some rice cereal. Gosh! David has learnt the trick of swallowing food. He thoroughly enjoyed it and cried when he finished it. It's ok, David. Claire-claire will ask Ah Ma to make more rice cereal for you tomorrow.

David is 6 months old

David is 6 months old. He is my favourite little brother. Claire-claire loves to hug and kiss him, even though he doesn't seem to enjoy my super hugs.

David knows that his name is David. He smiles when we call him "David". He knows that I am his big sister. When my papa and my mama are not around, he knows that big sister Claire will take care of him. He knows how to roll over and how to reach out for things.

He also uses many hankerchiefs every day because he cries alot and drools alot. But Claire-claire still loves him.

Look at that!

David, look at that! It's the big wheel! My papa tries to drive pass it every weekend. Claire-claire is very happy to show David the big wheel.



Here's a picture of David and I, posing in front of the wheel.

Our first concert

We attended our first concert at the Esplanade last weekend. It was a string quartet: two playing the violin, one playing the viola and one playing the cello. Both David and I enjoyed it. Look at how mesmerised we both are, though only for a very short while.


After the third piece, David was hungry and started fussing. So we had to leave. Well, Claire-claire is not complaining. It was dinner time after all.

Beautiful butterfly

Look at the beautiful butterfly on my hand! Please don't fly away.
