Mushroom

Agastya can read and write 'mushroom', and Lila can say 'muhroom'. I'm one happy mother hen.

Not on these pictures below, these were taken in August, I just didn't have time to upload then.

Btw on the 2nd pic, he wrote kiol (Kyle) and noono (Nuno).

Pee pee in the potty!!!

Lila finally pee pee in the potty!!! FINALLY.

Do you know how long the process has been? Numerous accidents without her even wanting to sit in the pink throne?

This afternoon (after taking off her nappy after lunch) I was determined. Yes. I kept the potty (and her) next to me at all times. Even when I had to go potty myself.

A few tries on getting her to sit in the throne when I thought she was due to, failed. I kept insisting, and kept a few toys next to her to get her entertained, and voila! One pee pee in the potty!!!

I think Agastya was even more proud of her than I was. He kept on saying 'good girl' over and over to her and congratulating her for not wetting her trousers and the floor. He gave her lots of soft toys until she was buried under them. She kept on saying 'seey Aga,... seey mommy' (silly Aga, silly mommy) looking at how ecstatic we were over her wee wee, no doubt. She did look so darn proud of herself, nevertheless.

Let's hope this is a start of a good routine, not just pure luck.

My precious salted duck eggs

After an excruciatingly long wait with the side effect of bucket sized drooling moments, a packet has finally arrived this late morning.



You'd think I'll be so excited about getting Sophos anti-virus software, huh? It's better than that, folks. Waaaay better than that.

It's.... *drum roll*



My precious salted duck eggs!!!! Courtesy of my best friend Mita from Leeds. Actually she just escalated her status from being my best friend to my precious-angel-one-of-a-kind-always-there-when-i-need-best friend!

All this word vomit and I haven't even tasted my preciouses!!!

Later, folks. You know what I'd rather be doing... *orgasmic squeal*

Video: Shoo fly, shoo!!

Warning: *not suitable for work/library/school, because it might induce giggling. *

Hmm.. I should have put a warning for the last video too..

Lila: Vocab Update

I just need to note it down here so I can look back and remember how proud I am today.

List of words she can say (non-exhaustive list):
apple, boat, hat, shoes, fish, car, flower, butterfly, bee, kangaroo, turtle, cake, cookies, biscuits, shoes, balloons, bear, pig, bird, mouth, monkey, girraffe, baby, clock, eyes, cheek, nose, ear, hair, water, duck, ball, train, box, socks, star, orange, banana, yoghurt, door, booboo, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, McQueen, Thomas, Wubzzy, all the characters from In the night Garden, Holly (from Ben & Holly's little kingdom), Peppa Pig, Dora, Boots, Pocoyo (and his friends),.. okay now I'm just going to list TV shows, haha.

She can say usual phrases like: "Where are you going?", "What's that?", "Let's go", "Thank you", "Here you go", etc.

Her annoyingly favourite one at the moment: "Aga, MOVE!"

Today is Agastya's first day in school! *cue instant teary eyes* I can't wait for him to go home and tell me all about his first day,... and he's not even gone to school yet.
