Nina ... December 05 Black&White

Nina ... a triptych

All I want for Christmas is ...

... I want this little bear to talk to me.

Nina's praying

Dear God,
I am praying so you will protect and keep this toy for me and don't let the boy next door steal it from me. But, if it's really stolen, please tell my mommy and daddy to buy a new one for me. Amen.

Colorful

Merry Christmas !

Joy to the world! the Lord is come;

Let earth receive her King;

Let every heart prepare Him room,

and heaven and nature sing,

and heaven and nature sing,

and heaven, and heaven and nature sing

Nina and her new toy

Nina ... December 2005

My two "bunny teeth"

Hi again !!!

Let's turn to page 57 ...

Baby Wise

Obviously ... she is trying to be one ...

Happy Full Month, Louisa !

Resting ...

Nina likes to stand in her baby cot and walk around it holding on the side of the cot. She was resting after a few tiring steps. :-)

PS: Nina can repeat after us saying "bear", "duck", "baby" eventhough it's not so clear yet. We show her the picture of bear, duck and baby when saying the words. She seems to respond well.

"Aaah !"

Nina can now pick up tiny object with tips of her thumb and forefinger. She can now pick up her Gerber's finger food herself and put it into her mouth.
She can also imitate what we say sometimes.

In the occasion in the photo below, we said "Aaah", and she followed by saying the same thing ..."Aaah"

Crossing her legs

Nina likes to cross her legs now when she's sitting. Not sure where she learned this. :-)

I wonder what's inside?

Nina's first Christmas

It's Nina's first Christmas.
We took Nina to Orchard last weekend to see the christmas light decoration along the Orchard road. She seems to enjoy it.

Nina's Chicco-Benz

Nina commutes everyday on her "8-wheeler Chicco-Benz Space Walker" from the living room to the kitchen, to the bedroom, and sometimes when she lost her way, to the bathroom.
She has yet to go for her driving lesson and thus it explains for the bad driving skill she has : doesn't signal early when turning left and right, keep thinking she can drive into the wall and appear on the other side of the room, very bad skill in using brakes and drive backward like nobody's business as if she owns the road.
She will give her big smile to the police-mum and police-dad and they will just let her go without giving her a ticket.

Uh .. what's that up there?

When I was born, I was only this big

Nina ... was down with flu

Nina was down with flu last week and wasn't cheerful.
