Jayden @Hummingbird (August 2011) P1

Pictures say a thousand of words.. Showing some pictures taken at Hummingbird during their playschool session. I love all the pictures and continuously appreciate the teachers' effort to keep parents posted. :o)

Mooncake

TGIF!!! It's fun cookery for Jayden at school again!! :o)

Guess what they are making today?? You are right.. Yay!! Mooncake!! :P

Teacher Meithin says Jayden likes to eat mooncake a lot because he ate a lot of them! I didn't know that because I haven't been feeding him with any before as most of them has ingredients that he is allergic to.

Anyway, I think I would like to get the recipe from them so I can try to make it at home.. The ones Jayden brought back tastes soooOOOOoooo GOOOOOOOD!!! :P

Very nice packing from Shangri-La :P

This little mooncake is super yummy!! :o)

My Cheerful Boy..

Yesterday I had a few words with Teacher Meithin (Jayden's teacher). Here is something that we both agree about Jayden's personality:

1. Very Friendly, Active, Cheerful and Cheeky (always come with a smile)
2. Very Alert and Observant
3. Learned the Art of Sharing and Asking
4. Not a very academic person (doesn't show much interests in pencil and sit-down works)
5. Favorite activities are Pretend Play/Drama, Singing, Dancing, Sand and Water Play (other than toys)
6. Can say a lot more words and vocabs now.. Hehehe.. :P
7. ....

There are more but this is what I can recall for now.. :o)

Mama... Mom.. Mommy

For the passed two weeks.. something weird happens.

Jayden has been calling me 'mama' whenever he cries looking for me.. It is funny why he starts calling me 'mama' cuz normally he would call me 'mommy' whereas he would call his grandma "mama". However, the pronunciations between mama (mommy) and mama (grandma) are very distinguishabla, so I know he wasn't calling me his grandma.. Hehehe.. :P

I think it's because I used to tell him that a lot of children also call their mommies "mama" and daddies "papa". So he should have picked it up from there. Not just that, being a cheeky one, he tried to call me "mom" a lot of times too.. He would purposely call me "mom" and then give me a cheeky look!

JJ is way too cute!! :o)

First Hair Cut by Mommy

Jayden's hair has been growing pretty long by now. Despite cutting it short, I decided to leave it like this as we are travelling to Perth in slightly less than 2 week time. It would be Spring by then but I wouldn't know how cool/cold it would be, I think it is safer to keep his hair slightly longer so it wouldn't be too cold for our little buddy. :o)

However, being a super sweaty boy, I almost find him with a sweaty head at all times!! Hence, I decided to do a little trimming, yup a minor one, on his hair. Yesterday marks the day I cut Jayden's hair for the very first time!! Hehehe..

It is exciting and apparently he wants me to cut his hair more than the barber!! LOLs.. I am glad that he chooses me.. So, everytime I cut his hair and the hair land on his skin, he will cry out loud something like this "waaa~~~ dirty waa~~ dirty.. so dirty.. waaaa~~~!!!" LOLs

Well, from this experience, at least I know why he cries every time he has a haircut at the barber shop.. He thinks the hair land on his body is very dirty! Now I have a new job is to educate him that the hair is not really dirty and we can always wash it away.. :o)
