I am a clever boy!!

Grandpa says I learn fast...

hmmm....Asher is a quick learner!!

Hehe...

Yesterday, mummy let me use my learning cup with the straw.
Just a few attempts and I know how to suck out the water from the straw!! Yippee!!!
Just that I still can't control the fluid very well, sometimes I suck too much...hehe

Mummy teach me to "ah" when I want the food or biscuit...
Just within the day and I knew her command and I do that everytime now...

When I want to go gai-gai, go out for walk walk, I will walk to take my shoe shoes OR..
If i want to be on the stroller, I will walk towards my stroller & climb up and sit into it...
:) hehe...ASK and YOU SHALL be GIVEN!!!

Be it sang by mummy or from the DVD...
I clap when I hear "if you are happy and you know you CLAP your hands..."
I close and open my fingers when I hear "twinkle twinkle little star..."

Well, I also pick up the certain items on the floor at mummy's request and I will bring it to her....
I give to mummy and she will give it back to me, ask me to give to daddy...and I will do so...
like playing my ball ball the same way...

and mummy has finally started me with my flashcards...no comments yet...too early

TIME FLIES...

sleeping away peacefully by my side on the bed now, as I blog for him...

Asher,
time flies so fast...although we have been through quite a bit from the day I had you in me, till you arrived and now...reaching your 1st year, everything seemed just like yesterday.

Is it just mummy or other people do feel the same?
Why do I feel like it seemed just yesterday for so many things?
Like how mummy and daddy got to know each other, ended up in courtship, got married, had you... ...

isn't it contradicting that i really look forward to so many things to happen, like you calling me mummy, learning how to talk, maybe even me bring you to school etc...YET, hate the fact that time really pass so fast...and hate to accept the reality that as time passes, my loved ones are also aging...
"mummy, I really love you."---this is for my mum
eventhough I know mummy won't be reading this...
well...suddenly i remembered not too long ago, I had blogged "why am I such an emotional freak" ... ...Oh no...I am there again.
So Asher, when you first came, mummy blogged on NEW motherhood for me...
a whole new experience which many are often worried of...
Other than having to take your presence into considerations when making plans or arrangements, additional responsibility...mummy don't think I have change much...
still as vain, still a happy person in general. :) in fact maybe even happier becos it is a satisfaction to have you now!! Knowing that I made it, surving through the pregnancy, delivery and our 1st year together!!
Breastfeeding you since day 1 till now...made it even harder for me to give it up. It's weird. I never really expected to feel this way during pregnancy, eventhough I had already longmade up my mind to breastfeed you. It seemed the longer i persevered, the tougher it is to give it up.
The journey we went through exclusively breastfeeding you for 6 months, then continue bf you while introducing solid foods to you and finally introducing a feed of formula milk daily to you at ten months, then more at 11th month and now at 12th month, taking BM like once/twice a day with the rest being formula...i had wanted to carry on for as long as I can...but BABY, apparently it seemed really difficult for mummy to have didi or meimei for you...so maybe i really have to stop... ... as much as I am reluctant to do so.

However, with the introduction of formula, it has further convinced mummy that my decision NOT to have any formula milk powder available at home when you first came was right. SO RIGHT! Because mummy was determined to breastfeed you.
Like now, eversince formula milk powder is ever so ready at home, mummy also do not express milk as often as before...

anyway, enough about the milk...
about you baby asher...mummy love you SOoOoO much!

sometimes mummy love to see you cry....cry for me! ;p
i love it when i see that you could understand the separation and feelings etc...

just like today when i "cried" to show you I am in pain from the hurt you caused as you threw the calculator which hit me accidentally...you frowned and run over to hug me!!!!
I was just trying to see how you will react...and you actually run over to hug me..I was really surprised...surprisingly pleased!! :)

mummy has a "happy" problem

Think many would think mummy is crazy...

many has the problem of nobody looking after baby...
but baby asher me is so fortunate...has mummy and grandma looking after me...

yet what is the problem?? Problem is both "fight" to look after me at times...

Many times recently, mummy is always busy on the PC....sitting at the corner of the living room....on the computer always...so much so, i know how to walk to that corner to find her!! she doesnt spend as much time with me alone with me as before...hmm..alone just me and her. reading,playing, music etc...well grandma also helps alot...she helps when mummy is busy, but also very eager to help when mummy is not busy....

when mummy has the time and want to spend time with me, carrying me, bathe me...feed me etc, nap nap with me etc....grandma will take me away from mummy....saying its ok, you go do your work...i carry him lah...

mummy understands it is grandma's kind intentions...but sometimes so overly kind that mummy cant breathe...mummy wants to spend time with me...cos she understands caring for me as mummy is important and that she doesnt want grandma to replace her role.

it is so difficult at times. mummy bring me into the room and try to spend time with me....grandma will also come into the room and bring me away... ...

how?

mummy was sad...i know.
