2Y3M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee

Kinder Nursery
We played with origami today. Yee-chan chose a yellow origami and folded it into half. She was good at pasting the square origami and happily said, "先生". She would ‘pulled out’ those that was pasted.
Journey Home
- Mummy wanted to buy milk at the Lawson store. Yee did not want to get down from the bike. Instead she pointed straight and said, "Go there." Mummy stood there thinking hard, where could she bring Yee. Then, Mummy asked, "Do you want to go to the library?" Yee nodded her head and said, "Yes."
- We took elevator to the Adult section as Mummy wanted to borrow books on learning Japanese. Yee took a book and sat on the floor beside Mummy. Yee was getting restless. So, Mummy told her that we are going to the children section. Upon hearing that, Yee stood up immediately. Mummy was surprised that Yee could understand what children section was.
- We stood outside the children while Yee ate her banana. (Yee was hungry and asked for it. Mummy always brought a banana along whenever she fetched Yee. It served two purposes - Firstly, to feed Yee if she was hungry. Secondly, it was a good way to make Yee ate banana frequently as Mummy did not have other food).
- Mummy explained to Yee that we could only enter the children section after she had finished her banana. Once Yee took had last bite of the banana, she walked straight into the children section. Mummy was impressed with how well Yee understood what Mummy had said.
- Yee happily walked around the children section, taking books and sat on various places to read - chair by the table and long sofa.

2Y3M (JP) - Marvelous Co-incidence

Marvelous Co-incidence
- Daddy and Mummy realized two interesting things when they place their beloved children's name side-by-side:
a) In English, it would be Yee-Zee (sound like easy)
b) In Mandarin, it would be 艺治 （sound like 意志 which means determination)
New Mandarin Phrase
Besides saying "许艺两岁 ”, Daddy taught Yee to say, “弟弟在妈妈的肚子里面". Yee would say it soundly. When you asked her to repeat, she repeated the word "面" loudly.
Kinder Nursery
We did physical exercise and sticker pasting today. During exercise, Yee held hands with friends and danced. Yee was good at pasting stickers, pasting one after another. Yee-chan loved the Anpanman sticker very much.

2Y3M (JP) - Singapore National Day

It was Singapore's 44th Birthday. The Koh family dressed in their national color - Red & White.

Upon seeing Mummy's taking out the camera, Yee passed her Elmo bag to Daddy and posed.

Mummy seldom took pictures with Yee and on this special day, asked Daddy to take pictures for her ... precious memories.

As we walked, Yee liked to give command, "Stop." Then with a cheeky smile, she would say, "Ready, set (Yee would ran two steps first and then said) ... go!"

Morning
While having breakfast, we heard "puut". Yee touched her buttock and said, "farted."
Mummy asked, "Who farted?"
Yee thought for a moment and then pointed at a distant and said, "Elmo." (She was pointing at her Elmo bag).
Mummy said, "It's Koh Yee."
Yee said, "Elmo". (still pointing at Elmo)
Mummy said, "No, it's Koh Yee."
Then Yee said, "Daddy" (pointing at Daddy)
Kinder Nursery
We did physical exercise in the room today. We played with blocks. Yee-chan was connecting the blocks and making the train by herself. Yee-chan said happily, "上手だね"　(good job).

Morning Affair
Yee has been bringing her Elmo handbag and umbrella (even when it was not raining) to school. This morning, she wanted to bring her Pooh haversack too. Mummy said "No!" Daddy gave in as it was getting late. Mummy was angry and told Yee sternly "Just go to school with Daddy." At the door step, Yee refused to follow Daddy nor let him go. Yee wanted Mummy to kiss her goodbye. Mummy refused. Yee stood at the door step for a long while. Finally, Mummy conceded. Mummy told her, "I don't like you to bring Pooh haversack to school. But I will kiss you goodbye." After kissing Yee, Yee was pleased and followed Daddy to the elevator. As she walked, she kept turning back to wave goodbye to Mummy, making sure that Mummy responded too. Outside the elevator, she gave Mummy 'fly kisses' twice.
Kinder Nursery
- The whole school did physical exercise together today. Yee-chan was dancing beside me for a long time. After that, we played with balls. We did height and weight measurement today. Yee-chan was moving a lot on the weighing scale. Surely she would get used to it.
- Height: 84.2cm / Weight: 11K
Way Home
Today, Mummy decided to use the bike as she needed to buy some grocery after picking Yee up. It has been a couple of weeks since Yee sat on the bike after school. Yee was delighted. Seeing Yee so happy on the bike, Mummy thought, perhaps, Mummy should use the bike instead of walking (especially it is humid these days).

Tough Morning
It took Mummy 30 minutes to get Yee out of the house. By the time, we reached the nursery, it was 10:10am and the other kids were happily playing in the pool. Yee sat on the bike and watched while Mummy explained to her that she has less time for the pool because she did not want to come to the nursery.
Kinder Nursery
This morning Yee-chan was not in a good mood when she entered the pool. She remained unhappy in the pool. But once she saw the water balloons floating by, she was smiling and played happily. She took a longer time to sleep (than other kids) during nap time.
Supper Time
Yee 'sharing' daddy's noodle. It was warmth to see Daddy and Yee eating one strand of noodle from opposite end. It was a pity that Mummy did not manage to get a picture of it.

Surprise Photo
Mummy was surprised to see this photo. Daddy took it while we were sleeping. Mummy could only sleep on her left side as she was 6-month pregnant (pregnant women are not recommended to on their right as it would press against an important blood vessel).

Kinder Nursery
- We went for a walk today. Yee-chan stood in the stroller cart. It has been a while since we took a walk and Yee-chan was very happy. Whenever she saw dogs, flowers, train, etc, she would point at the things and said, “先生". She waved to the train and the train driver waved back.
- One week before the Bon Festival, outside activities are cancelled. We will have pool time, please remember to prepare for it.
- Potty Training: 15:00 (sat only)
Mummy i wondering ...
Mummy wonder how did the train driver waved back at Yee. The track is way above us ????
After Nursery Walk
Mummy thought this walk was for Yee (since she was confined to the nursery room for the whole day). On deeper thought, perhaps it was meant for the six-month pregnant Mummy. The one hour walk (every Mon to Fri) would surely build up Mummy's health and stamina. Maybe that's why God delay His blessings (for a little while) in granting Yee a place in the govt nursery just, opposite our apartment.
Yee Found Her Highchair
Mummy kept this high-chair since we used a low dinning table (like Japanese) and sat on the floor. Few days ago, Mummy was surprised to see Yee sitting on the high-chair in the bedroom. Apparently, Yee had dragged this high-chair from the corner where Mummy kept it. But how did she got it out from among the few things that were blocking it. Mummy wonder ... Anyway, Yee loves it and has been sitting on it in the bedroom. This evening, Mummy decided to let her sit on it and watch DVDs on the TV. See ... Yee was enjoying it.
