Month: July 2005

A new skirt and some shorts for Chloe to celebrate her 19 months old birthday.
The skirt was at $3.79 and shorts at $1.39 each. And yes.. i buy them only when they are on sale. I do not splurge on chloe’s clothings.. but shoes .. got no choice.. gotta buy good ones for her .. so that she gets good support.

Watched this yesterday nite while having KFC but i didn’t finish watching the movie. Lets just say .. it was more a MrT’s movie than mine.

I am..!! I cannot see or leave my asian food alone..! if i buy them.. i have to eat them .. right away..!! even though i already had dinner.. and salad.. but i cannot leave my asian food alone. I bought .. a box of butter curry with rice this evening.. and just a few mins ago.. i microwaved it.. and ate all of it.. not because i am hungry.. but because it’s curry..!!
So yes.. glutton i am..!!

My dearest Chloe,
Today you are 19months old. Another milestone not only for you .. my princess .. but for mummy too.
You are such a precious little thing…….. so funny.. and so cute.. most times….but you are also so clingy of late.. and even more so.. when daddy is home.
I love the way .. you eat your chocolates… and udon from a chopstick… sometimes.. you even play a good girl in the store.. by sitting on one of the shelves .. and wait for your chocolate to be handed to you.

You have grown so tall….. and reaching for things that you want from the kitchen table now. You are also so gibberish these days.. like you are asking us questions after questions.
The things you do sometimes.. just sents me and daddy laughing so hard.. like using a remote.. and trying to change channels .. or pulling both our hair/head .. so that you can see mummy and daddy kissing each other.
You’ve become so brave now.. that you wanna dash out onto the road…. when we are about to leave in the car… sending daddy into a frenzy.. trying to catch you before you reach the road.
You still do not sleep well at nite at 19months.. and even feeding you with more milk before you sleep doesn’t help put you to sleep the whole nite….. you still wanna wake up and have some more milky. And if mummy is the one waking up wtih you .. you are so clingy.. and refuses to sleep for at least an hour or more.
But never mind… mummy love you so much.. sweetheart… that all the deprivation of sleep is nothing… but sweetheart.. mummy want you to sleep thru’ the nite.. for your sake.. not only mine.. because you do need lots of sleep.. so that you can be healthy. You only take an hour and a half nap these days…. and you still refuses to go into your stroller.. so daddy have to bring you out for drives.. just to get you to go down for a nap. And today.. you refused to nap.. and tried to nap at 8pm and mummy had to wake you up .. so that you can sleep at a normal time tonite.
But you always behave yourself.. when you are outta the house.. and in the mall but when you are at the store.. or home.. you become really clingy and demanding and not allow mummy to do anything.
You are such a joy to visit for our customers .. when you are at the store.. for customers would plant heaps of praises for you.. from being pretty to cute.. and smart to chatty. Everyone thinks that you are such a smart and pretty kid and so healthy looking they say.
Today .. you had a plateful of udon and chicken with broccoli and no baby food for lunch . .but you took an hour to finish your lunch.. but that’s ok.. as long as you are trying to eat big gal’s food.. mummy will have all the patience to feed you .
My dear daughter, as i watch you grow everyday….. you bring so much joy into my life… and i thank God every single day for you .. and strive to be a better person for you.. my princess. I want you to know that .. nothing is more important to me. .than you are .. Chloe. And that you are loved by everyone.. daddy, grammie, grampie.. and of course mummy.. and everyone in the family.
Keep growing healthy everyday.. my princess.

Love,
Mummy

It is so hot and humid right now.. it is so uncomfy…!! I hate it when it is like that… makes one feel so lethagic..!!

Not a bad movie at all.. with a different twist. A “Can” watch. Long movie though..!

I look at Chloe this evening .. while we were winding down.. and getting ready to put her to sleep.. and Chloe was bubbly.. and hyper still.. and rushing towards me.. and kissing me.. or bumming her head onto her personal sofa… that we bought for her. And the next minute.. she was up on the sofa with her daddy and then again climbing down within minutes.
And what i saw was a perfectly healthy.. and happy toddler… reaching all the milestones at her own pace.
So yes.. Chloe is growing up very nicely.. if i may say so myself.
Sure her sleeping habits are much to be desired…… and needs improving …. but other than that.. i think she is a normal toddler (can be monsterish at times )… and i love her with all my heart and every ounce of me.
