My New Barbie Float

Posted by Everyday Healy on October 6, 2010

Lately, this is my favourite activity. I always want to swim. Be it at night, early in the morning or right under the hot sun. Ask me any time and I will surely say… Yes! πŸ˜›

Just because I swim so often, my old float seems already worn out. It has got hole somewhere. So, it’s not safe any more. I need a new float. πŸ˜‰

And, I love Barbie stuffs! Even though I don’t play with Barbie dolls. Ha!

Liz:”Girl will buy Barbie things and boys like Benten. I have nice pink Barbie float now.Β Yippee!” Hehehe……

I can continue to do my ballet turning in the water with this new float. That’s beautiful! Fun! And, mum said it’s a wonderful way for getting rid of belly fatΒ too. Ha! Ops… My belly is not fat at all, ok? 😯

I want to go to Shirt Class

Posted by Everyday Healy on August 13, 2010

Liz:”Mummy, I can’t wait any more. Can we go to McD now?”

Mummy:”Alright. Let’s go!”Liz:”But, I don’t know how to change. I need you to change for me.”

Mummy:”Oh! Ok. Ok. I am coming!” πŸ˜›

As mummy was changing for my little princess……

Liz:”Mummy, I want to go to shirt class, ok?”

Mummy:”What? Shirt class?” 😯 *Puzzled*

Liz:”Yes. I want to learn how to change shirt.” Waahahahahahaha……

Mummy:”Now I understand what you mean, baby. But, I am so sorry. There is no shirt class. Mummy will teach you how to do it at home, ok?”

Liz:”O… Ok. How about swimming class? Got swimming class or not?”

Mummy:”oh, sure! But, I think you are too young now. Somehow, we can give it a try during the year end school holiday, ok?”Liz:”Ok.” πŸ˜‰

Wow! Looks like my curious littleΒ cheeky is so keen on learning now. Or is it because she was so contented to attend classes since young. Somehow, nothing to loss if she loves attending classes aye?Β Β At least she already understand that attending classes is to learn something that we don’t know.

By the way, I think mummy will send you to learn swimming by year end holiday. No more delay. As that’s what happened yesterday.

Liz:”Mummy, how can I swim without the float? Mmmm…… (thinking)”

Then she take out her float, and immediately she just get down to this 4 feet pool by herself. 😯

But surprisingly she managed to grab the steal ladder and get her head up by herself before mummy grab her. Stunning! but, very dangerous as well. Mummy just got to watch her more closely this time. Of course, she should know how to float on her own as soon as possible too. :)

I can dance in the water

Posted by Everyday Healy on August 1, 2010

Liz:”Mummy, I want to show you my ballet dance in the water. Β I can do it!” Β πŸ˜›

How was the turn? It’s a big surprise for mummy. And, it’s absolutely a clever trick. So cute! Lovely!

You talk a lot about ballet recently. You seems to fall for ballet. It all started from the cartoon “Angelina Ballerina”. So, mummy will let you join the “Bebe Ballet” class from this month onwards.

Mummy:”Do you want to join ballet class?”

Liz:”Yes! I love ballet so much!” πŸ˜‰

I can swim on my own

Posted by Everyday Healy on May 17, 2010

Liz:”I want my Barbie Doll float. I want to swim on my own, mummy.”

Mummy:”Yeah… You are brave big “Jie Jie” now. That’s impressive!”

Look at my brave little princess! She don’t need mummy to carry her in the water anymore. She finally learned to trust the float. And, swim on her own now! Mummy is so proud of you. Really! πŸ˜‰

I am sure I can float

Posted by Everyday Healy on February 22, 2010

Β 

This is cool! I am sure I can float on this big pool soon. Thanks, grandma. But please don’t let go! Hahahahahahaha……

Instead of going to school, that’s what I did this morning. Why am I not going to school? Cause last night there is no electricity supply. It’s too hot for anyone of us in the room to sleep soundly. So, together we stay awoke in the middle of last night. Also, together we can’t wake up this morning. Hahahahaha……

Everything is New

Posted by Everyday Healy on October 18, 2009

Nothing much today even though it’s Deepavali. Daddy busy giving speech in an important occasion of his company. Mummy, Mama and Uncle Bill were shopping in the mall while little Elizabeth was sleeping at home. That’s it for the whole afternoon. :(

Somehow, last weekend was fun! It’s good to have daddy swimming together with little Elizabeth again, right? And, mummy was so glad I found such a lovely new swimsuit for you while we were shopping at Penang Hard Rock Hotel.

So…… Cute! However, the bottom piece is so loose. You just keep pulling it after you went into the water. Hahahaha…… May be mummy should keep this and buy a smaller size for now. Hehe……

New float! New beach ball too! Hooray! But, you are going to have more fun in the real pool, trust mummy! πŸ˜‰

Oh! You laughter was precious!Β  Thus, mummy’s hand was busy snapping your your pictures while we were laughing together. Thanks to daddy! πŸ˜›

Enjoying myself in the boat

Posted by Everyday Healy on April 19, 2009

Β 

This is what happened when I swim with uncle Bill. He will pull my boat around in the water. Let me enjoy the blue sky and flying birds. Oh! The boat is just like a bed at that moment. So relaxing.

But, it’s been some time he never swim with me. Mummy will do it now. But today, it’s daddy’s turn. It’s kind of boring after lunch. But, I enjoyed swimming with daddy later in the evening. :)

Thanks to daddy keep making the stunt of jumping into the water. That’s funny! Hahahaha……

Anyway, there were times I was alone in this ladybug boat, while “kakak” will be watching at the pool side. I still enjoy myself. “Row Row Row a boat, gently down the stream…” Just keep on singing. And, Hello! please give me a net to do “fishing”. πŸ˜‰

Let’s drive in the Pool

Posted by Everyday Healy on November 9, 2008

She misses “Gong Gong” and Poh Poh” so much, especially “Gong Gong”. She keep calling for them. However, my FIL got to work until 10 pm tonight. So, we canceled the plan to “Poh Poh” house. Now, both father and daughter were having sweet dreams.

I am sure later we will have somewhere to go. At the moment, mummy just want to write a few words and put up the lovely pictures that mummy just took for my little sweet heart before I catch up with my afternoon nap.Β  πŸ˜›

Β Hehehehe. I am riding on my new boat!

Fish! Fish! I have scooped a fish! Hahahaha…… ( Recently, she really have fun while teasing people. LOL!)

Oh! Mummy! The steering just can’t help to turn the boat around. Can you help? 😯

When mummy bought this new ladybird float which even has steering and horn yesterday, I thought it will bring a merrier swimming experience for little Elizabeth compared to her existing plain float. She just learn about “Boat”. So, this is like a boat to her. Moreover, there is a pulling rope. So, it’s also like kids wagons.

Now, look at this sweetie! She really have so much fun in the pool this morning. πŸ˜‰

I am going into the water

Posted by Everyday Healy on October 21, 2008

Last Saturday and Sunday, daddy bring us all to the beach again. Mummy thought Elizabeth will still be uneasy with the sand. Still, I try to let her wear slippers. Just feel the sand. It’s ok.


Wow… It’s a bit shaky! 😯

 


“Daddy! I am coming!”

 

 

“Let’s work together, dad! But, my tools are too small!”

“Alright! We will come to you. Just stay there, baby!”

That’s too deep for a first timer. *sigh*

 

 

Have daddy’s tool. Just “work” here. It would fun! hehe……

“Don’t go, dad!” “Ok. Bye, dad!” :(

 

 

Now I need milk. Let’s go home, daddy. Hahahaha……

“What? I am still a baby, ok?” Yeah… Hahahaha……

 

Surprise! Surprise! My little princess has grown up to be so sporty and proved me so wrong. πŸ˜›

I guess little Liz really had enough exposure at her age now. Mummy and daddy keep bringing you out since you are 3 weeks old. To fulfill your curiosity and give you a warm welcome to this wonderful world. Hoping you can learn through observation. Feel safe, excited and happy! Well! At least, you learn how to enjoy and blend well to every places mummy and daddy bring you to now. We all did a good job! So, keep going! Hahahaha……

By the way, I guess we are still going to the beach this weekend. Daddy is definitely going to carry on catching claims. But, mummy got a new job for you, baby! πŸ˜‰

I am 18 months Old

Posted by Everyday Healy on June 5, 2008

Now Little Elizabeth is 18 months and 1 day old in exact.

Yesterday, we celebrated. But, it’s doesn’t seems like a real celebration at all. Mummy bought a piece of chocolate banana cake for the “birthday girl”. Yeah… It’s cake. No lolly pop. Lolly pop is bad for teeth! That’s what I learn from Ghorn. πŸ˜‰

Anyway, Elizabeth don’t really enjoy eating that piece of chocolate banana cake. Oh! My dear, I though you like chocolate and banana? 😯 Don’t worry! Only mummy will need acne treatment after eating too much of chocolate. Not you, baby!

Actually, Elizabeth loves chocolate and banana. But, mummy forget that she doesn’t like cakes. hahaha…..

Never mind. We just forget about the cake. What’s next? Er… Since daddy is home earlier…


Ops… Make sure you can take it out later. 😯


I told you! πŸ˜›

At last, baby enjoyed herself so much in the pool with her be loved daddy! At least some fun! :)

I don’t want to swim

Posted by Everyday Healy on March 24, 2008

Time flies. We are back from KL. And, mummy really have no regret to bring along my little princess. She was a very good girl for the past 2 days while she was in KL. Mummy is so proud of her. πŸ˜›

However, mummy just take a few shots. As mummy was too busy spending time carrying my baby all around. In fact, she became so clingy while we were in KL. She wanted mummy to carry her most of the time instead of daddy or kakak.

But, mummy loves to do that too. I am glad she was so happy throughout the journey, except the time daddy take her down to the hotel’s swimming pool.


What happened to Elizabeth? Only God knows! But, why daddy is fraunning too? Like daughter like father! hahaha…….

Anyone has any idea why does this happened? Not familiar with the pool? Too many strangers in it? She loves going into the pool so much when she was at home. Mummy and daddy was a bit disappointed to see her grumpy face at that moment as we expect she will love it. Thus, we even bring along the floats. :(

Can I sleep

Posted by Everyday Healy on March 21, 2008

Mummy actually buy banana, plums and apples to spare in the car for tomorrow’s journey to KL. She even thought of buying grapes for me later. My clothes was packed. Mummy is going to pack all the biscuits or breads, my DVDs and toys later.

This is the first time Elizabeth going to stay in hotel. Branson hotels? Nope. We are staying in Impiana this time. This one night stay is provided by hubby’s company. So, we just grab it. :)

However, will Elizabeth refuses to sleep while she was in the hotel? I heard baby can hardly sleep and will cry for hours if they suddenly forced to sleep in a new place. Elizabeth never stay overnight in any other places before since she was born, except her own house. So, mummy is so worrie. God bless us… Hopefully, everything will turn out find.

In fact, Hotel should be much more comfortable. And, Elizabeth should enjoy the place which is fully air-conditioning. Mummy did spared our swim suits too.

As mummy has the idea that Lizzy will feels very tired and that’s easier for her to fall into sleep after enjoying a great swim in the big beautiful pool. πŸ˜‰

What do you think?

I like swimming

Posted by Everyday Healy on October 17, 2007

I did not swim for quite some time. Actually, I love to swim. But, mummy don’t really like to get into the pool with me quite often. However, I am lucky today. “wuwu” — uncle Bill bring me along when he get into the pool this afternoon. Thanks, “wuwu”. I enjoyed myself so much. Just… not too long. After a while, I normally raise my hand high to signal mummy, “please get me out of the pool now!” πŸ˜›
