Your First Chinese New Year

You had your first Chinese New Year celebration when you were 4 months old. You woke up at your usual time and mummy had you bathed. Mummy dressed you up in your new dress, a gift from auntie Gey Peng & uncle Miguel.

Daddy decided to take a picture of you in the new dress.


Aurelia with Mummy.


Aurelia wIth Daddy.

After when we were ready, we went to church to attend the morning Mass. After that, we went to visit Ah Kong & Ah Mah (paternal) for CNY. Then we meet up with all the aunties and uncles. Hmm, you collected a lot of angpows (red packets). A red packet will mean it's a blessing from the person who gave that.

Your first time turning your body over by yourself

The picture was taken on the day you successfully to turn your body over by yourself. We can see that you were trying hard to turn left and right. At first, you were half successful. Meaning that you managed to turn your body over till you were lying on the side of your body. After that, you dropped back onto your back.

You kept going for quite a number of times until you successfully turned your body over till you are lying on your chest. See how glad you are with the little smile you gave when called by Daddy & Mummy. Yay!! What an achievement !!!

Short Holiday Trip to KL

We took you down to KL for a short holiday trip to visit all the aunts and uncles. Aunty Agnes & Uncle Aldren got up to KL from Malacca to meet us. We didn't visit much place during this trip except a visit to Mummy's uncle's place. Other than that, we spend most of the time at Aunty Rosa's place in Klang.



Above is a picture taken together with Uncle Aldren, Aunty Agnes, Uncle Steven, Aunty Rosa and of course, Daddy, Mummy & you ...

First Time Lifting Up Your Head

This is the first time that you successfully lifted up your head when you are lying on your chest. Once you got it up, you were quite happy when Daddy & Mummy called to you. Can see it through the smile on your face.

Previously, your neck was not strong enough for you to be able to lift up your head. So, whenever you are sleeping in that position, you'll stay on one side of your face until either Mummy or Daddy turned your face over to the other side. In a way, it helps to keep your ears closed to your head.

Sleeping Sack

Daddy got you a sleeping sack for use when you were small. It really helped you to sleep better and avoided unnecessary blankets to cover you during your bedtimes. You looked like you felt really cozy and comfy. The pictures speak for themselves. Below are some of Daddy's favourite pictures of you in the sleeping sack.


"Ha!Ha!Ha! This is nice"


"Hmm! I'll give my head a scratch"


"Ok, I'm going to bed soon"

Hmm ... Should have started this earlier ...

Like what the title stated, should have started this earlier say Day 1 when Aurelia was born. Now, it's rather difficult to back track the events all the way back like more than 1 year ago. So many things happened. Well, I think the thing that I can do now is to put down the important events and start the journal from this day onwards ... I think it will still work :-)

Chinese New Year 2008

Dong Dong Zhang x2, Gong Xi x2 etc... Chinese New Year come again… and mummy as usual bring you back to Malacca, to meet mummy’s family. We start our journey on the first day of CNY after we visit Ah Kong & Ah Ma. Due to you still small, so we had our journey to Klang and overnight 1 day before we back to Malacca.

This year, the ambiance was difference. You can’t find maternal grandpa as usual. When mummy asking you where was maternal grandpa? You will turn your head to look at the chair that grandpa always sat. Ask you to call Ah Kong, you will do it without fail.

For you, you still enjoy the fun with all the姐姐(Jie Jie) and 哥哥(Ge Ge). Now, you are more comfortable with them, and can let them to carry you. You enjoy walking as well. At night we bring you to see灯笼(Deng Long) at Joker Street, Malacca. Mummy teach you new word call Deng Long… Every times mummy teaching you new words, you will try to pronoun it. Mummy felt happy to teach you and also enjoying to talk to you.
