Chip off the Block

Here's a picture of Dadi when he was a toddler. Do we look alike? Well, the shape of the face is more or less there lor. : )

Mommy has always wanted a baby boy who looks like Dadi. In fact, she was kind of disappointed when everyone commented that I looked so much like her. Dadi was also kind of jealous. Hee hee! However, more people are commenting that I look like Dadi more nowadays. He is so proud now.

I'm a chip off the block and shares Dadi's playfulness, such as biting people. Keke!!! Dadi and I often play this biting game where we try to take a chomp at each other. So ticklish and funny.

Talk about biting, Mommy decided that I am a big boy now and biting should not be tolerated. I chomped on her cheek on Mon night and she used a finger to smack my cheek. Not very painful lah, but I still managed to squeeze out 2 trails of tears and Ye Ye tried to come to rescue me from Mommy's clutches. However, Mommy was adamant about disciplining me and refused to let Ye Ye carry me. Shucks! I better behave myself. Anyway, I am now a big Kor Kor to Jaden Di Di and Ethan Di Di. Must set good example. This will be my New Year Resolution. : )

I love Mommy and Dadi

I love Mommy and Dadi so much. I will wake up every morning in time to catch them before they go to work. Usually, I will turn my charms on Mommy to make her linger longer and play with me. Her heart melted when I cooed to her yesterday morning. Hee! This morning, it was my ultimate killer smile that made her late for work again. ; )


Nevermind, there will be many days of festive holidays where Mommy and Dadi could spend their time with me. I sometimes drive them crazy cos I am cruising now and they have constantly keep an eye on me. I am also very mobile and agile now. I move so fast that sometimes they also couldn't keep up with me. Yeah!!!

Tai Ma (Great Grandma)

Dadi and Mummy said Tai Ma is sick and hospitalised. Something about a stroke. I hope Tai Ma recovers soon cos I really like her and she loves me a lot as I am her first great grandson. Hospital sucks and I really hope she recovers soon to go back to Simei home. In the meantime, Ye Ye, Nai Nai and Dadi have been shuttling between home and hospital while Mommy watches over me. They said I can't go and visit cos hospital is full of germs. See? How I hate hospitals. Maybe I could visit Tai Ma during CNY and cheer her up a bit. Miss you, Tai Ma.... Please recover soon.

Yeah!!! CNY around the corner!!!

See this sunshine smile? This nice picture was taken by Auntie Noel... Oops! It's Noel Jie Jie when Mommy brought me to office when I was 3 mths old. Swee bor? Noel Jie Jie very good at coaxing babies to smile at the camera. Anyway, I also very smart boy cos Noel Jie Jie is very pretty and I have to turn my charms on her lah. Mommy says I very "Ham Sup" one, likes only the pretty girls. Keke!!!

This is my 2nd CNY. I have no memories of my first CNY celebrations cos I was a wee 2 weeks old. Only remembered that Mommy put me into the pram to sleep and put me at the dining table for the reunion dinner. I woke up and disrupt their reunion dinner cos I wanted my dinner too. :)

Anyway, I am looking forward to tomorrow's dinner. Nai Nai said we are having steamboat for dinner. So cute! I wonder how a steamboat would look like... must be yummy cos I know Nai Nai is a good cook. She cooks yummy porridge for me everyday. Dadi had also specially brought the high chair over to Nai Nai's place so that I could join them at the dining table. Yipee! I get to eat my fave fish, veggie and tofu liao. Yums! The soup is nice too!!! Oh yes! We are also having reunion lunch at Po Po's place. Lots of nice dishes too! And I get to play with Uncle too. Yeah! So exciting!!!

1st Birthday Celebration (Part 3)

Since there was no birthday party for me on 19 Jan 06, Mommy and Dadi decided to make up to me and rounding up Ye Ye, Nai Nai, Gong Gong, Po Po, Tai Ma, Gu Po and Uncle Teck for a dim sum buffet to Tung Lok Seafood at East Coast. Yums!!! I could eat my fave Char Siew Pao (just the skin lah!).

This is a shot of Tai Ma and me. Hee! I love Tai Ma!!

Hee, the young man carrying me is Uncle Teck. Gong Gong is pointing to the camera to get me to focus in that direction. See my Po Po? Her complexion is very good hor?

Yeah! Our Quan Jia Fu!!! Mommy saves this picture as her PC backdrop.

Picture wih Ye Ye, Nai Nai, Tai Ma and Gu Po.

So happy today!!! Other than my usual home-cooked porridge, I got to eat my Char Siew Pao, egg tart and that sweet sweet dessert with fu zhu, waterchestnut and corn. Yums! Lets go there again. : )

1st Birthday Celebration (Part 2)

Dadi came home, but he wasn't feeling well. Ye Ye and Nai Nai left for their lesson... Only Mommy and me alone with the presents and eggs. Mommy tried to entice me with the presents, but I was more interested in the pretty little red eggs... As usual, I got my fun out of smashing them to the ground.

Waiting... waiting...waiting.... Zzzzzz..... finally, 9.30pm! Ye Ye and Nai Nai came back and Mommy finally brought out the cake. Yums!

Yipee! Got fire on the cake!!!
Cut cake liao!
Yummy! Mango filling in the cake. Sweet! I like!!!

1st Birthday Celebration (Part 1)

My birthday falls on a Thur... only Mommy took leave for the day... Boh Bian, Dadi and Ye Ye got to work, plus Ye Ye and Nai Nai got to attend their Er Hu lesson at the CCC tonight.... sigh... when can I get my grubby fingers on the red eggs and cake leh...

See what Mommy fed me during the day.... Banana... what did I play with? 1 miserable balloon... from McDonald's some more....


*Gasp* U mean that's all for my 1st birthday??? Shan Nau Jing Orh!!!!

My 1st Birthday!!! I'm a Big Boy Now!!! Keke!!!

Today is 19 Jan 2006. Mommy said it is my 1st birthday. It is another major milestone for me again. Seems that Mommy is expecting me to do a lot of stuff, such as walking without support and call Papa and Mama discriminately... Hmmm, but I still prefer to crawl leh. Faster leh. Anyway, Nai Nai prepared some red eggs for me. Yeah! Mommy said I could eat egg white liao. No scare of allergy cos I am one liao. BTW, she also standby a bottle of codliver oil in the cabinet for me to eat. Wonder if it would be yummy? Well, can only find out later.
Since I have no party, of course my presents will not be significant lah. But still not bad leh, quite a number of packages to rip open later. I saw some red packets inside too. Wonder what is inside? So small and slim leh... anything edible to put into my mouth??
Here's my birthday cake. It's my fave Bugs Baby. It sure looks yummy. *drool*

Who is this "Gu Niang"???

Why is it that when a boy keeps his hair longer, people start mistaking him for a girl??? This has happened to me umpteen times liao. Who to blame??? My Nai Nai and Mommy lor...cos they sometimes dress me up in pink... like a gu niang...


These pictures were taken on X'mas eve. See my fringe? Very long hor... See that pair of ugly red stockings??? Mommy actually dressed me up in that and brought me out for dinner nearby!!! Shoots!!! It was a nightmare!!! Dadi said it was ugly, but Mommy said nevermind cos Santa Claus also wears all red.... Poor Santa, his Mummy must be as bad as mine....tsk tsk

My First Cruise Trip

Mommy and Dadi decided to bring us for a cruise on a super duper big cruise ship called the Virgo in mid Nov. So shiok leh. Tai Ma, Ye Ye, Nai Nai, Gong Gong, Po Po and Uncle Teck joined us leh. I super happy cos I am the baby in the group and there were so many adults to tend to my whims and fancy. Keke!!!

Show you two pictures of me with Tai Ma, Ye Ye and Nai Nai... and of course, the hot babes on the cruise ship. :) Well, I have always been a lady killer. Keke!!!

Of course, there is another shot here. See, Dadi and me in the shower. Boh Bian, too troublesome to bring my bath tub onto the cruise ship so I have to go under the shower. From the look on my face, I obviously didn't quite enjoyed it... but my Mommy and Dadi got a kick out of seeing me screaming and crying lah... (See? What kinda parents are they??? Anyone wants to trade parents for a day??? I can throw in a fire engine FOC... any takers?)

My First Passport Photo

This is the series of photos taken by Dadi as Mommy and Dadi need to pick out the best for my passport application. Mommy nagged and nagged at Dadi for taking such shots as I had a trail of drool on my chin. Utimately, it was the first photo that was used, after the drool was edited by Noel Jie Jie. Noel Jie Jie really sayang me. She wanted me to look real handsome and also did some cosmetic for me to remove my eye bags and tears in the corners of my eyes. Hee hee!

Dadi likes this photo alot. He used this to do up 2 posters for Mommy and him to remind them not to work late and to hurry home to play with me. See, do I have the "qian bian" look? Haha!!!

Act of Crime

Share with u some pictures that Mommy and I like very much. These were taken when I was a month plus, coming to 2. The nice baju was from PoPo and the teddy was from Ikea. I couldn't grasp it with my fingers and simply used my arm to secure it and happily chomp away at teddy's ear. See the drool spot?

I may be a wee baby, but I also knew how to act innocent when Mommy appeared with the camera. I pretended to be pally with teddy... alas! But the drool stain too obvious liao! Hee hee!!!

Welcome to Rara's Playground : )

Hihi, folks.

I am Ramerez. Haha... betcha first time heard such a name right? My Mommy and Daddy's friends have problems pronouncing my name. Even my mommy didn't get it right at the first few attempts (I heard Mommy struggling with the pronunciation when I was in her tummy. Keke!!!).

Ramerez was picked by my Dadi. He said it is Spanish and means "Beacon of Light". Best part, he said it is difficult to pronounce and the teachers won't get me to answer questions in class cos they won't know how to pronounce it... they will probably go "Ra...ra...ra...... U, Jon! Answer the question." Hee hee!

As my name is so difficult to pronounce, Mommy's friends call me Rara for short.

This is Mommy's first attempt at blogging as she is so inspired by Ashton Kor Kor's nice blog. Mommy is an IT idiot, so she must love me very much in order to attempt this. I lurve you, Mommy. Muaks!!!

Events and photos would not be in chronological order for a while as Mommy needs to take time to upload the stuff. I sure hope she has the perservance to pull it through. Dadi is not in favour of this, but I hope he would recognise Mommy's efforts as she is really IT idiot (Oops! I lurve u, Mommy!!!)
