shades mania

Gw cukup heran dengan si my little queen.
Sejak dia kenal sama yang namanya kacamata, dia suka banget ngambilin kacamata untuk dia coba pake. Lucu sih keliatannya, sampai sampai akhirnya gw mutusin beliin dia kacamata item beneran supaya dia bisa pake sendiri.Anehnya dia jauh lebih betah pake punyanya orang dewasa dibandingkan make punyanya sendiri hehehehe...

Here are some actions of her with different types of glasses :)

She likes wearing glasses, and funny thing is when she's wearing glasses, she often raises her nose in order to avoid the glasses sliding down which of course it's all only in her "thought" hahaha, that's why her face looks cuter when wearing glasses...

dicium dibelai anak

Terserah itu anak kita kandung, atau keponakan, atau anak lewat, gw rasa semua setuju, rasanya LUAR BIASA kalau udah dicium, dibelai sama anak kecil.

Rasanya hati jadi meleleh... Saya belum pernah nemuin orang yang gak meleleh hatinya kalau sudah dibelai apalagi dicium sama anak balita. Sekeras apa pun mukanya jauh di dalam hati pasti deh meleleh..

Termasuk si my little queen. Duh, tu kata orang orang bener deh. Walau dah capek, kesel, jengkel, kalau dia sudah dateng ngebelai muka gw, trus pake dicium, "ting" semuanya hilang deh rasanya...

2 kata (yeay)

Si gadis mungilku lagi belajar bicara..
Sejak umurnya 1 tahun, dia aktif berusaha untuk bicara.
Satu satu kata kata mulai keluar dari mulutnya.
Kalau diajarin, nurut, langsung nyebutin. Mulai deh menunjuk bis dan bilang "bas.. bas.." keikutan sama orang sini nih dia. Trus "mobil", "motor" "baju" "s.patu".. "Buku," "bobo", "telepon"..

Beberapa hari terakhir ini, tepatnya sejak 1,5 minggu yang lalu ya, meningkat drastis, dia mulai belajar menyambung 2 kata diucapkan berturutan.
Wah hebat sekali rasanya. Bagaimana dia menyambung kata : baju.. mami... baju mami.
Rambut ... mami... rambut mami. Foto... kakak... foto kakak.

Mulai juga dia belajar kata yang suku katanya lebih dari dua. Lucunya dia mengucapkannya seperti kita ngajarin dia : pe...sa...wat... pesawat. Pe..pa..ya.. paya..

Lucu banget, kayanya musti gw rekam video deh dan gw posting ke sini deh :)

Lucu sekali kedengerannya di telinga. Nadanya lucu tapi menyenangkan sekali, enak didengarnya.
Bikin ketawa juga sih kadang kadang. Apalagi kalau di tengah keramaian, dia bilang: eek... kakak eek... (alamak....)

"I do not understand how to pose mom!"

curiosity

She is a lovely little girl.
I had to wait for my cousin, but she patiently wait with me.
After crushing the cookies on the table without me knowing, she turned her attention to this vanilla coffee glass.
She was really curious, what was that, how this thing could have different colors on it, what was this picture, hey if I looked from this angle it was different from that angle, and hey inside it was not the same if I looked from this side and that side.

Kids are proof of God's amazing work. :)

2D play - good or bad? do you think

Since so many people advising me not to let my daughter play with technology screen in early age, I thought I just go with it. Especially when someone came to me with the article of brain development that children playing with cubes block have higher brain development than children playing blocks in iPad. Quite surprising that time I thought as usually when kid playing with technology with screen they were considered as "smart" and so. Then I decided not to let her play with it till certain age. Interesting that she also not so much attached to TV even though sometimes I tried very hard to make her watch the TV so I can do something else hehehe. Nope, didn't work that time.

Thus we provide her with many 3D (real 3D) toys. If there is any different in her brain? ShARKS!! How do I know? Hahahaha.. Anyway, I like when she was active moving around, running here and there compared to sitting and just watching TV.

However, interestingly, somehow it revolved. Since we stayed in Singapore, somehow she developed her love for TV. I was quite worried that time, afraid that she would hooked up to TV all the time. Surprisingly, not really.



1. She loves certain programs, and dislike some others. Interesting. Somehow program that I think that she would not like (because I don't like the program), turned out to be one of her favorite. For example : Dora (I have enough of Dora when my little cousin were younger), Teletubbies (arghhhhh I hate those walking dolls).





2. My brother in law told me once that the program of cebeebies and baby tv were actually producing programs based on research, and when I really watched it, I can tell it's quite true. Amazingly, strangely, we never taught her to count! She one day came and say: one.... two... three.... por... feevvv... ss (she doesn't know how to pronounce) .. ten! We were shocked!!! Yesterday even more scary I think, we were watching TV and on screen therre was a fish and she called our attention and pointed at screen fish and say : fiiiisssssshhhh... Jaw dropped.



3. She only let herself maximum of 20 minutes in front of TV and then will try to find activity to be involved with, such as, bugging us in the kitchen when we are cooking, take all the laundry off the basket to the floor when we are about to do our laundry.

4. She played with my mom tablet not because she wanted to play with it, she was copying us doing it. Hah.. Which I thought when she wanted to play with other pad / tablets, she wanted it, the fact was because people playing with it, she wanted to know what was it and that was it. When we let her play with tab, she didn't stay long also, only 3 minutes maximum, left it afterwards. Ayaiya.. Unless I played the dance song video for kid, then she will put her attention.



5. She enjoyed the dance and singing on TV programs. She would dance accordingly, eh, guess what? Doing Yoga also included! Anyway for laptops, I laughed every time she put her position in front of laptop and acts like me when I work on my laptop..



6. When we do skype, firstly it was not easy to get her attention. But now, when we pull he to front of laptop and say skype, she will say: aju.. aju.. (the person we usually have skype with). Then whenever we say done, she will close the laptop no matter we actully already say godbye or not, or if my hands still on the keyboards or not, tsk tsk tsk....



I don't know it is good or not then. You think?

putting on clothes

Silently, she tried to put on her clothes by herself. Everything with hole in it will be pulled in through her head by her. Of course sometimes it made to the neck, but sometimes it does not. Sometimes because she got into the wrong hole, or, it wasn't at all to be wore from the top ;)

 This one below : during time preparing her bath, she tried to wear her shirt again, too bad she felt it was too tight to go through her head (not to mention it was the other side around)

 this thing supposedly a pampers, pull up pampers dear... not a head on pampers ;p

These are the most recent one, just this afternoon. 

I was going to do laundry, she pulled her swimwear and put it on, of course wrong hole in wrong way

because I was laughing and grabbed my blackberry to take picture of her, she thought she did the right thing and proud of it :p

Finally she realized I was laughing at her mistake. I took it out, but she took it back and just laid it on her head.. ahhh...

 

mom, please stop blogging..

I was so busy enjoying my Saturday, busy on my blogs. Something that I hadn't touch for some time. Something that actually can be very refreshing for me. So, I was so into it. For hours. My baby was busy watching the tv and played with her toys. The she decided she wanted my attention.
She came to me, asked me to put her onto my lap.

I agreed, I put her on my laptop while working on the dining table on my laptop, working on my blogs.
She must be tired of me having to scold her if she touched my keyboard, so she was just watching me typing and typing, and laid her head to my chest. And sudeny her head fell a bit to the side, and I saw her fell sleeping! I put her to he bed and let her sleep well.

Still not learned my lesson. This morning, I came back to my laptop and continuing working on the blogs. Of course she already took a bath, had breakfast, had milk, had her toys around her.
She played with her toys and watched ceebebies. Sometimes she came to me to see what I was working on. Then while I was so busy typing, I didn't realize, she pulled the other chair, climbing very hard (because for sure it's taller - a lot - than her) by herself and then sat on it - all without me realizing it, and then watched me. After few seconds, then I just realized, what a mom I am. :p

So, time to say good bye to blogs, see you in I don't know when, I think I have to attend my daughter's invitation for now :) Looking at her way of looking at me.

copy cat

Umurnya 1,5 tahun bulan lalu. Persis deh 18 bulan. Gayanya banyak bener. Seperti layakanya seluruh anak bayi di dunia, ada aja yang menarik dari setiap masa pertumbuhannya. Yang pasti berubah-ubah nya cepet banget. Bikin kita yang ngeliat kaget-kaget. Gw yang liat tiap hari aja kaget kaget gimana yang jarang ketemu dia hehehe..

Yang paling serem menurut gw adalah tingkahnya yang rajin banget meng "copy". Aduh serem banget.

Banyak banget dari karakter / tingkah laku gw yang menurut gw sebaiknya enggak ditiru sama dia. Apa daya, beberapa sudah mulai kelihatan tercopy dengan baik.

Menjerit.
Aih, malu sih gw mengakui, anak gw kadang suka menjerit dan itu dari gw atau dari mana ya? Gw ga ngerti. Sampai suatu saat waktu lagi di tempat bermain indoor biasa dia main, ada anak anak lebih besar dari dia menjerit, anak gw nengok n langsung menjerit juga. Then gw legaan, kayanya gara gara anak anak lain suk amenjerit makanya dia menjerit. (Denial booo hahahaha)

Gw tergelak pas dia menyuarakan ngorok lembutnya orang yang lagi tidur, sambil pura-pura tidur.. Gak pernah diajarin, tapi sering banget denger kali yee. (Gw atau nyokap gw? alamak....)

Anyway, yang lagi jadi highlight kebengongan gw recently adalah dia niruin gw jadi maminya!
Gw lagi sibuk ngerjain kerja gw di laptop meja makan, pas sayup sayup gw denger dia ngomong "mami.. mami.. mami.." gw langsung ngeliat ke dia yang lagi sibuk ma bonekanya pooh kecil, oh my god.. dia lagi niruin gw!
"Mami..mami..mami.."
"iya.. duduk..duduk,. duduk" dan pooh pun didudukkan

"mami..mami..mami"
"he eh.. he eh..." pooh dipeluk dan dielus elus..

"mami..mami..mammii"
"oo.. num num num " lalu botol dotnya diminumin ke si pooh kecil... lalu pooh dipeluk dan dia pun berbaring samping pooh

aayai yay.. gw aseli kebengongan, dan senyum sendiri. Gak nyangka sih anak 1,5 tahun dah bisa ngecopy jadi emak emak ke bonekanya... copy lainnya gw bisa ngertiin tapi roleplaying as a mom surprised me :)

Tapi above all, I am so happy, I think she understands well that I love her so much :p
