It was the first time Mummy bring along, Daddy, Topaz and Orion to see gynae after carrying the baby for 4-5 months! Nene was going along with us.

Topaz was very excited as Mummy told him he can "see" the baby. After the gynae, Dr Susanan Huang examine Mummy, she also confirmed the sex of the baby!. she announced firmly that "it is a Boy!" and she continued " i hardly made any mistake in the sex of the baby, it is a boy!"

Mummy and Daddy have expected it to be a boy.. Mummy has 3 brothers and 8 Uncles! Daddy has 2 brothers too! We knew the chance to have baby girl is very slim. Anyway, we are alright with 3 boys as they are our precious!

But, something went wrong..... Mummy noticed that Topaz's eyes turned red and suddenly he was so quiet. Oh! He is very sad!! Daddy and Mummy had to comfort him!!

He was very upset because it is a baby brother!! He was worry that his "Ta Qui" (Mummy's eldest brother) will take away his baby brother as Topaz had a deal with his "Ta qui" that if it is a boy then "Ta Qui" will take the baby away!!

It took us sometime to comfort him, we even called Mama to comfort him.

Topaz: "Why? Why like that?" then he cried. We know he prayed everynight for a baby girl so "Ta qui" cannot take away the baby!

It was a very meaningful day for Topaz, Mummy hopes he can learn from this lesson that don't simply give any promise to anyone!!

09.11.2010

Christmas is around the corner. Daddy has decided to put up our 10 feet tall Christmas Tree at night. It was an excited night for Topaz.

Topaz: Mama, tonight Daddy and I will hang Christmas Tree!!
Mummy: Oh!! you want to "hang" Christmas Tree?
Topaz: No No No... cannot hang... put up the Tree!! haaa....

Daddy came home late, he took his dinner only after 8 p.m. After a "long wait" for Topaz, Daddy, Topaz and of course our lovely little Orion started put up the Christmas Tree. Topaz can now put up all the branches. He is really a good helper for Daddy!! Of course Orion had done his part too by mixed up around all the branches (all braches have alphabets on them) and carrying them around! Mummy just sitting on the sofa gave instruction to Orion in order to control damage.

Time flies, Daddy and Mummy still remember Topaz cannot really help Daddy to put up the tree at all last year. Not to say our little Orion.

10.11.2010 will be the night to put lights and ornaments on the tree!! Topaz's 1st Christmas Tree....that he put up himself.

Happy Birthday to our 10 feet Christmas Tree!! You have been with us for 2nd Christmas!!

Mummy: Topaz, why your Daddy always like to play games?
Topaz : Ya. Why Daddy always looking at the computer and not LOOK AT Mummy?

2010-08-09T23:22:00.004+08:00

09.08.2010
Mummy is very busy with her works since last few weeks (maybe months).
A week ago, it was a very tiring night. Mummy was lying down with Topaz.
Mummy: Mummy is so tire. Why Mummy works so hard and does not get the same pay like your daddy?
Topaz: It is because you don't work hard?
Mummy: No! Mummy works very hard. Same as your daddy. It is because supply and demand!
Topaz: What is supply and demand?
Mummy: What do you want to be when you grow up?
Topaz: I want to be a police's boss.
Mummy: Police's boss? not policeman?
Topaz: Police Boss. Mummy what is supply and demand?
Mummy: Mmmm... if there are 5 people want to buy a packet of Soya bean like your mummy, daddy, mama, orion, Jeriel Kokor.. then all of us will fight for it and pay more. Mummy will pay RM1, daddy will pay RM1,50, Mama will pay RM2.00... But if there are 5 packets of soya bean but only Topaz wants to buy, then Topaz will only pay for the price asked. so who you want to be?
Topaz: I want to be a policeman!
Mummy was so annoyed: What? Policeman? do you know that policeman is just like 5 packets of soya bean but police's boss is like one packet of soya bean!! who you want to be?
Topaz: Policeman!
Mummy: Why??
Topaz: We cannot fight! we should share the packet of soya bean, Mummy....

Maybe he is right... or mummy's example is too bad.

How to train your dragon

2010-03-30T12:02:00.002+08:00

30.03.2010
Last night, it was Monday night, Daddy, Mummy and Topaz went for a movie "How to train your Dragon".

On the way to Tropicana City, Topaz was so excited and asked...
Topaz: Mumy what is the meaning of "train"?
Mummy: hmm..
Topaz: I know! It is to teach the dragon to bath and to eat!
Mummy was so surprised.
Mummy:Who told you that?
Topaz: Mama told me to train dragon is to teach dragon like how to bath and how to eat.

In the mall, while waiting for the movie (movie started at 9.00p.m and we had arrived there at 7.30p.m.), we went for our dinner. Topaz was jumping up and down, he was so excited of the movie and cannot even wait for it to start.

We bought popcorn after the dinner, it was around 8.30 p.m., Topaz took one and looked at Mummy and said: I take one only."

We were there since 8.30p.m. but the worker only allowed us to go in 10 mins before the movie starts. While waiting for the movie, Mummy took one popcorn, Topaz looked at Mummy and said: "Mummy, you can only take one, can only eat when the movie starts." Seems like Mummy need to learn a lot of things from her little precious boy!

When the movie was started, Topaz was shouted in the Cinema and keep making noise that he was so scared. Shhhh.. that's all Mummy and Daddy told him besides hugging him. He did not fall asleep and he even enjoyed the movie. When it was finished. Topaz said loudly "I like this Movie!!". Daddy and Mummy were smiling at each other, maybe that's all we wanted to hear from him. It really make our money and time spent worth.

Topaz was sleeping in the car on our way back home. It must be very tiring day for him.

Orion

2010-03-29T13:39:00.005+08:00

29.03.2010
Orion is a very cheeky and cute boy.

He is almost 2 but he is so small size just like 1 year old boy. He runs here and there, climbs up and down. He loves bananas so much that he will climb on table and enjoy bananas on table while mama was busy in the kitchen.

He loves to follow what his Tai Kokor does includes laying on floor to watch TV. He also loves to disturb his Tai Kokor by sleeping on top of him, biting him when he is angry and kissing him whenever he wants to. In fact, Orion kisses all of us all the times especially his daddy! Daddy hardly scolds him as he always being so lovely to daddy. Mummy would said he plays his card right.

He refuses to drink milk especially mummy is the one who feeds him. Mummy has to "lock" him in the room, after crying for around 1 minute, he will surrender and finish his milk. Same to his porridge and cereal. Of course, he enjoys our tasty food.

He always come out from the car seat, this definitely unlike his brother who always cry but unable to come out the car seat all by himself. Maybe is the size....

He woke up in the middle of the night, smiled to Mummy and even play with Mummy..... Mummy had to sing song to make him sleep....and it happend not one or two.... ai...

18.12.2009-Save Money

2009-12-23T14:30:00.002+08:00

Mummy always tell Topaz must buy something that he needs and not something he wants. To make it easy, Mummy always tell him must save money then he have money go to USA to visit Yee Po for white Christmas. And it helps to make Topaz understand that it is important to save money for something. However... it may not turn out the way Mummy wants.....

Aunty Hui Yee is visiting Mummy in KL. Topaz and Hui Yee were waiting for Mummy and Daddy in car when they went in a shop to get something.
Topaz was looking at the coldstorage's booklet. he pointed at somw weet and ask Aunty Hui Yee.
Topaz: Can you buy this for me?
Hui Yee: This sweet?
Topaz: Yes. Can you buy this for me? My mummy wants to save money so she cannot buy for
me.

25.09.2009 Come back home earlier!!

2009-09-25T09:19:00.003+08:00

It was before Topaz's alarm clock rang, Topaz was standing besides Orion's bed to wake me up. Suddenly, the alarm clock rang. it was 6.30 a.m. Topaz turned off the alarm clock and followed Mummy to go to downstairs.

Topaz: "Good Morning, Mama!!"
Mama was preparing Topaz's breakfast in the dry kitchen. Seems like everyone was early!
Mama: "Good Morning, Topaz!"

As usual, Mama was getting ready for Topaz to go to school. The only different was that it was Mummy's turn to send Topaz to kindy. Traffic was clear and Mummy was managed to reach office earlier after sent Topaz to school yesterday.

It was drizzling, Mummy's car was parked along the road side. Topaz was so excited and requested to use his Spiderman Umbrella. It was a small umbrella for kids. He had waited for this opportunity for long. Mama passed the Spiderman Umbrella to him. Mummy had no choice but to share this small umbrella with Topaz. Ai....

Mummy and Topaz were chit chating in car on the journey to his Kindy.

Topaz: Mummy, I don;t know what is your work place.
Mummy: Ok, I will bring you to see.
Topaz: Mummy, when I am in 5 year old class, you move your work place near my school.
Mummy: hmm.. change job??hmm... (goodness me, Mummy just changed job on 15.06.2009!!)
Topaz: Mummy, I don;t want to stay too long in school.
Mummy: You want to stay half day instead of full day?
Topaz: Yes. That's what I want! Mummy.
Mummy: Ok, I will put you in half day in school only.
Topaz: Ok. you can pick me up?
Mummy: Yes., I will try to pick you up.
Topaz: Ok. Thank you Mummy.

Suddenly, Mummy reliased that she turned into wrong way.
Mumm:"Ai wrong way..."
Topaz: "Yes, wrong way again Mummy!!"
Mummy: "Ya.. Mummy always go wrong way..."
Topaz:"Yes....wrong way."
Mummy: Never mind I use another way. and turn.."
Topaz: "Yes turn right!"
Mummy: Wow you regconize the way?"
Topaz" Yes, Mama told me."
Mummy: "Why? Mama always goes wrong way?
Topaz: "No. Mama goes right way! she will bring me one round. Cannot go wrong way, waste
petrol"
Mummy" Ok.......(waste petrol?? How old are him?? waste petrol..ai...)...

After reached the kindy, it was still early, 7.20 am. The kindy's gate was closed. Mummy had to use the "Spiderman Umbrella" to cover Topaz and walked into the compound with Topaz.

Topaz: Mummy, got shade already!!
Mummy: Ok, Bye Topaz.
Topaz: Bye Mummy.
Topaz shouted: Mummy, come back earlier from work!!
Mummy: Ok.

Topaz then shouted again:"Mummy rememebr to come back earlier when it is sunrise!!!"

Oh no!! it was so loud! A man was keep looking at Topaz and Mummy... Mummy was wonder what's in this man's mind? Maybe...."Why this mummy always come back home late?" "No time for this so cute child?"

Mummy walked as fast as possible to her car and drove off to work. It was a wonderful day for Mummy except the Spiderman and the Man....

How much is your bed sheet?

2009-09-18T18:12:00.003+08:00

Mummy bought a new bed sheet for Topaz few weeks ago after Topaz sleeps in Topaz's and Orion's room. The bed sheet was choosen by Topaz himself- Tweenty bird's bed sheet as he did not want any animals' bed sheet as "they will bite me!!" said Topaz.

This was what Mama told Mummy.

Mama: Topaz, you got a new bed sheet?
Topaz: Yes. Mummy bought me.
Mama: How much is the bed sheet?
Topaz: hmm.. I don't know. Mummy paid for it....but it is not expensive.
Topaz said again: Mama, do you know what is not expensive?
then he continued: It means Mummy can afford it!

29-08-2009 Topaz's and Orion's room

2009-09-02T17:46:00.003+08:00

Topaz is making a lot of noise that he wants to sleep in Topaz's and Orion's room!

Mummy asked Daddy to put beds in their room on 29-08-2009. Daddy initially refused as he said Topaz will not sleep in the room!! Mummy told Daddy it was Topaz's wish....

After Daddy confirmed with Topaz then Mummy, Daddy and Mama have to do start our project to re-arrange the room. We put 2 beds in the room, one for Topaz and one for Orion.

The next morning, 30-08-2009, Mummy wake Topaz up and told him than he is so brave can sleep alone in the room.

Topaz: Where is Orion?

Har!! he is expected his brother to sleep with him!!

Topaz has been sleeping in the room since then..... by himslef.

31-08-2009 TV remote control

2009-09-02T17:26:00.005+08:00

Hurray!! Extra "rest day" (no need to go to office). Daddy and Mummy were sitting on the sofa. Daddy: Do you know your younger son very smart?

Mummy: Ya, (Of course!! That's my boy!! :) ). Why you said that?
Daddy: He took away the TV remote control from Topaz!
Mummy: Not something new! He loves to take away the TV remote control from his brother
and keep pressing the buttons. This Topaz will then complaint to me! And Orion will laugh! He just loves to do this!
Daddy: But Orion took the remote control from Topaz then he will rum away and Topaz will
chase after him!
Mummy: Oh.. this is something new!! I did not know that both of them can play chasing game!!
Hmm.... I believe it is because I have taught Topaz how to turn to his favourite
channel after Orion changed it. Since then, Topaz did not make any noise and just take
back the remote control from Orion!! No wonder Orion needs to run away from his
Korkor!!

Orion is only 1 year and 2 months plus can even think how to play with his korkor. 1st took away the remote control, 2nd run away and make korkor chases after him!!

09-08-2009 it is alright!

2009-08-12T13:45:00.002+08:00

Topaz, Orion and mummy were watching TV in the hall. Suddenly,
Topaz screamed: "Ai!!! Orion bites me!!!"
Then he cried.

Orion now has around 16 teeh (he refuses to open his mounth to let mummy count!).

Then Mummy has to comfort Korkor as it is really painful if bite by Orion! Mummy has experience it before.

At night, while Mummy put Topaz to his bed to sleep. mummy was playing with Orion. Mummy "bites" Orion fingers! Orion knows and he pull his fingers backward.

Topaz asked: "Mummy, what are you doing?" he looked so puzzle..
Mummy cheecky and said" Biting didi's fingers"
Topaz was so annoyed and said" No! Mumy don;t do it!"
Mummy asked "Why not? did bite you this morning!"
Topaz very serious and said" It is alright, Mummy. It is fine! Don;t bite didi!"
Mummy continued: "But did bite you, so I also must bite didi!!"
Topaz said: Mummy, you taught is wrong! Cannot bite didi!!"

Hee... so Mummy has learnt lesson from Topaz Ta Kokor!!

Topaz loves Orion very much that he refused Mummy throw didi away eventhough he complaints didi very naughty!!

Hmmm... what kind of mummy is this? Bite son's fingers and throw him away?? Har!!

May 2009 sunset, sunrise

2009-06-27T23:41:00.003+08:00

Topaz always confuse with sunset, sunrise....

It may because he wakes up at 7a.m and it is still "Sunset".... (the sky still dark).

Everyday, before Mummy leaves the house to go to work, he will remind Mummy..

Topaz: Mummy you come back early!!!
Mummy: Ok!
Topaz: Come back when sunrise!!!

?? Sunrise!!That's mean Mummy can only come back in the morning?

Mummy: Sunrise?
Topaz: Yes! Sunrise! beore the sky is dark!
Mummy: Ok. I will come back fast fast.
Topaz: No! It is wrong!
Mummy: Wrong?
Topaz: Coma back fast when no traffic and slow when traffic jam!
Mummy:...hmm... ok.

05-06-2009 ZOO

2009-06-11T16:05:00.004+08:00

Daddy and Mummy were on leave on 5/6/2009 to bring Topaz to Zoo Negara.

Topaz can recognise A-Z but not word. He can only spell:
COCONUT and TOPAZ.

ZOO is the third word that he now know how to spell after the Zoo's trip. He is now making noise wants to go to ZOO and not Zoo.

Even daddy and Mummy have warned him not to go too near to the animals. He always said : "I am strong!! I can fight with all the animal!!" he showed the actions of fighting!

However, when we bring him near the animals, even cows, he was so scared and dare not go near the animals.

When we saw cows....
Mummy: Why so scared?
Topaz: The animals are big!
Mummy: But you are strong and can fight with all the animals?

Mummy likes to tease with Topaz...
Topaz: But they are very tall and big!!

When we saw Zebras....
Mummy: Let's go near the Zebras
Topaz: NO!!!
Mummy: Why? You scared?

Hee....again, Mummy teased Topaz.
Topaz: No! I can fight... but there is a big drain there! We cannot go near the Zebra!!! Let's go!
Topaz has 1001 excuses for thing that he does not want to do....

We visited almost all the animals in the Zoo except those houses doing renovation and some even went for school holiday like penguins. We spent almost one whole day and picnic in the Zoo. We had burgers, biscuits, bread and juice with ice under the hot sun for our lunch.

We always watched Multi Animals Show. Parrots and seal lions showed off their telents. Orion was so excited and kept making noise and waved his hand!!
It was a nice trip.

I cannot reach!!

2009-06-11T15:11:00.004+08:00

11-06-2009

Mummy has registered Topaz for holiday programme for these 2 weeks at Jeriel kokor's kindy. Jeriel Kokor is Topaz's best friend. He is actually Topaz's counsin brother. Topaz loves to play with Jeriel Kokor all the time and Topaz always ask "Is Jeriel Kokor coming?" "Why?" "Why Jeriel Kokor not coming today?I want to play with Jeriel Kokor everyday!!"

Mummy went to pick up Topaz in the Kindy. Jeriel Kokor saw Mummy coming then he took Topaz's bag for him. Topaz came out from the Kindy.

Mummy: "Where are your socks?"
Topaz looked puzzled. He cannot remember where he put his socks.
Jeriel Kokor looked at Topaz and said :"I cannot take for you, you need to take it yourselves!" Jeriel Kokor being a Kokor he brought Topaz around to look for his socks!! What a good kokor!!

Finally, Topaz remember he put his socks in the bag. So he took his sandal and stand in front of the door. This Jeriel Kokor automatically helped this lazy Topaz to wear his sandal!!

Teacher cannot stand this Topaz and said:"You can wear all by yourself!!"
Topaz straighten his hand and said :"I cannot reach!!" he is saying his hands cannot reach his legs so he cannot wear his sandal!!

Mummy asked him in car:"Why you not wearing your sandal all by yourself?"
Topaz:"My hands and legs are sleepy!!"

...ai..... What if he has not this Jeriel Kokor?

I am 1 year old!

2009-06-11T11:06:00.005+08:00

Orion can now standing by himself!! This is the new skill he has learnt.

We bought a huge palypen for him (4 boys can play in it). We put a lot of balls in it so Orion can entertain himself while we are busy.

However, this Orion is not happy with this arrangement eapecially after stayed in the playpen for more than 10 mins. He will throw balls out from the playpen to get our attention. Each time he will pick up a ball and stand up and throw. And... he smiles ... (cheecky boy).

Now with this new skill (stand by himself...) he can now pick up 2 balls, stand up and throw 2 balls at the same time.

We are busy to pick up balls around the playpen....

Orion has 8 teeth while he was 8th month old. It seems a lot of teeth are coming out.

Orion has started solid since he was 6th month plus.

Mama told Mummy that Orion's cereal is going to finish. Luckily Mummy can collect 2 packs from a shop at Ara Damansara next Tuesday!! It is not easy to look for organic baby cereal. Mummy has booked 6 packs of another brand cereal since last year and until todate still no stock!!

Orion has tasted banana, apple, tomato, pumpkin, sweet corn, potato, carrot and etc.... hmm it is time for him to taste yogurt and cheese. Mummy and Daddy will be busy to shop around again!

28-2-09 I know how...

After we went out for a whole day, finally reached our home.

Mummy quickly put Orion on bed so Mummy can sort out those vegetable bought from supermarket.

To Mummy's surprise, while put Orion on bed, he is able to sit. Mummy was thinking, maybe cos Mummy put hin in the "right position" so he is able to sit down. So Mummy decided just lay him down and observe. (Mummy had forgotten about those vegetable!!)

Suddenly, Orion used his hands and managed to sit up! Yes he is able to sit down!! Orion was so excited with this new adventure!! Mummy is proud with his little Orion!!

Mummy: Topaz, do you want to go to Nene's house?
Topaz : Yes!! must take aeroplane to go Nene's house!
Mummy: Clever boy!! What do you want to eat at Nene's house?
Topaz : hmm... crabs! I want to eat crabs!
Mummy: Crabs?
Topaz : Yes! Crabs. Make sure the crabs don't bite me!

Crab...(part 1)

22-01-2009

Mummy loves to eat crabs.

During last year Chinese New Year, Nene (Mummy's mother) bought 3 big crabs to cook for mummy while whole family went back to Kuching!

Topaz was around 2 ++ and he was very very active (actually now he is also very active) and climbed up and down and refused to sleep but to play.

Mummy got an idea to make sure he stayed in the room.

Mummy took the 3 crabs (yee... still alive) which Nene put in a pail, and show them to Topaz. Mummy warned Topaz better go to sleep or the crabs would bite him! Then Mummy put the crab outside the room.

Topaz really did not dare to go out of the room!! But of course he make a lot of noise in the room. He kept asking Mummy what happen to the Crabs? Why the Crabs in the pails and etc....

Ai... it is a very lousy idea as end up I need to answer more questions to him!!

Orion is 7th month today and his 3rd teeth is "coming out"! He is now 7.3 kg! just the right size to carry!

He is now able to crawl slowly and "walks" very fast with the help of walker (which was present by Mummy"s colleague when gave birth to Topaz Kor Kor!)

He loves to "walk" over to the mirror near maindoor and smile at the baby in the mirror!

Chinese New year is coming. We are busy of preparing for it. Topaz suddenly come to me after Mama bathed him.

Topaz : Mummy... Amber does not want to hold my hand.. (sadly)..
Mummy : Why?
Topaz : I gave her my hand but she does not want to hold my hand... She likes another boy....

Hee.. cannot believe that Topaz has been "rejected" by a girl! All the teachers love him so much that want to be his "girlfriend"!! And, he loves his teachers very mush as well!

Christmas lunch 21-12-2008 (Part Two)

2009-01-10T08:15:00.011+08:00

I was informed of this by my colleague, Emily. Of course, it is about Topaz.

While we were celebrating our Christmas lunch together with my colleagues at Sunway.

All of my colleagues were busy to take care of Topaz and Orion. On the other hand, me and Joel were busy enjoying our meal.

Topaz was following Emily to play bubble!! Emily was so busy blowing bubble for him. It was prepared for Byrian (Chuah's only son) to play with Topaz. Unfortunately, he did not turn up. Topaz was so sad. Luckily Emily was around to entertain him.

While they were playing outside the restaurant, Topaz saw a dolphin's statute. He pointed at the dolphin's fin and asked Emily

Topaz: What is it?
Emily: It is fin.
Topaz: Why got fin?
Emily: So dolphin can swim!
Topaz: No!!! It can not swim. It is dead.
Emily: hm.......

Poor Emily....

All of us are very curious what's the "Yellow Monster". We thought it was the famous "Yellow Man"...but of course he and his daddy like the Yellow Man very much (they think it is cute).

The next day, when Mama (Topaz's grand mother) sent Topaz to kindy. It was Ms Teresa who take Topaz down from Mama's car...hee golden opportunity.

After checked with Ms Teresa, the "Yellow Monster" was actually a puppet. His class was playing puppet show!!

Topaz was actually scared of Puppet when he was young (he is a big boy now...even he is 3 ++...he even told me "I am big boy now. See!!!" then he stood still and let me see how big boy he is....).

2009-01-07T16:20:00.000+08:00

Me and Mama (Topaz's grandmother) were tried to find out what was happened in Kindy after I dropped him. Whether he cried like other children or being so brave...

Back to Kindy-Part One 05-01-2009

2009-01-05T08:34:00.000+08:00

Today is the 1st day school for all the students after long holiday and of course included Topaz. He will be in the 4 year old class.

Last night he was so excited to get ready for school. He slept at 10 p.m. while during his school holiday he slept at around 12 a.m. or even later!!

As I promised to him earlier, I am sending him to school today.

I was expected to go to work late as may need to accompany him in the kindy as he may not used to it after long holiday and there will be new class teacher.

While I nearby the kindy and I was looking for car park, Topaz said to me,

Topaz: Mummy, just drop me at there...( he was pointing at the school gate) I can go in all by
myself.

Mummy: You don't need me to bring you in?

Topaz : No. put me down after the gate.

While I drove my car in the kindy's compound, a lot of teachers were waiting for students at the corridor included his previous class teach Ms Rose. All of them were so happy to see Topaz and welcome him back to school! Ms Rose came to take him from my car.

I left the kindy and reached office at 8 a.m.!!!

I feel happy that he has grown up. But, on the other hand, I feel sad that he does not need me around all the time. I really miss the time he cried while I left home to work and ran toward me when saw me home after work ( eventhough he does welcome me home nowaday).

Christmas Lunch 21-12-2008

2008-12-23T10:40:00.001+08:00

My colleagues were decided having a yearly event i.e. Christmas lunch at Sunway Hotel since one of my colleages has UOB Credit Card that entitle for 50% discount for the meal...Good deal ler :)

Me, Joel, Topaz and Orion were attending the lunch.

We really had good time. The best part was gifts exchange.

Topaz was helping us to take our exchanged gifts (total 2).

He opened the first gift and said "I don;t like it. It was a nice spices set.

Then the 2nd gift.. he opened and said "I don;t like it as well..." he was so sad... It was a Jewellery Box...Joel wished it comed with Jewellery...heee of course his dream does not come true.

As my colleague Neela saw my son so sad she gave him a roll of chocolate.

Mummy: You happy now?
Topaz: Yes!! But this is not a present.

Then I realised that as the chocolate was not wrapped then it is not a present. To him a present must be wraped!!

Last night (22/12/2008), I opened the jewellery box and showed to him. It was actually a musical Jewellery Box. I showed him how to operate it. He was so happy.

Mummy: Do you like it?
Topaz: Yes!!

Topaz took the box to Mama's (grandmother's) room and transferring all the "Jewellery" (i.e his watch and mama's watch) from the old box into the new box. He told me the old box too small and not good must put in the new box!!

Thanks to my colleague, Shai, for this wonderful gift to make my son so happy!!! And also the spice set as well.

Topaz hide his left hand behind and tell Mama innocently: This hand did not do.

As usual.. he escaped again from Mama....

I always ask Topaz...

Mummy: Mummy has 2 good boys... who?

Topaz : Topaz and didi Orion

Orion is now 6 months old. We decided to take the challege to bring him for his first movie in cinema since he is a very quiet and cheerful baby.

Orion felt asleep after staring at the screen for half an hour... when he woke up, he looked around and continuing to "watch movie" and he did not make any noise at all.

This is Orion's first movie experience.
