All About Bryan and Dylan

Some of the baby talk created by Bryan

Ammeno = Mickey Mouse
Ammennyio= Vitamin ~ don’t ask me why it has almost similar sounds as Mickey
Awak awak = Give me ~ My guess is it sounded similar as “Gei wou” (mandarin) or “Hor wa” (hokkien)
Yaget = Yogurt
Ah mall = Queensbay mall
Gng Gng = Gong Gong (grandfather) [...]

The bridal salon where we are taking the family photo at do provide free costumes for the kids. So we let Bryan try into the smallest tux that they have at the shop. Even that was really large for him. We had to fold up the sleeves, shorten the pants and narrowed down the waist [...]

While most families are planning their Sunday around Mother’s Day celebration, we were planning ours around the family photo taking in the afternoon.
BIL (Hubb’s youngest bro) is getting his wedding photos taken in the afternoon and we have a family photo session as well.
So we need to make sure that Bryan is well rested before [...]

Mothers are happiest to see their babies eating well. As I have mentioned in my previous post, I am so happy to see that Bryan’s appetite has fully returned.
And to add to my happiness, he is now taking “adult” food pretty well and is quite capable of feeding himself unassisted (most of time).

The photos were [...]

In the last few weeks, we have started to let Bryan sit at the back of the car alone, even when there are 3 of us traveling together.
The reason – Bryan will insist on playing my hp if I sit at the back with him.
If we are in hubb’s car, after hubb put him at [...]

Miche once commented that “mothers sakit hati when their babies wouldn’t eat.”
I couldn’t agree more.
During the first 2 days when Bryan was hospitalized for Cosackie, he had trouble drinking and eating because of the throat ulcers. However, we still tried our best to persuade him to take his food & water, albeit a few [...]

#1: His PD. We took him for his checkup last Saturday. The moment he walked into the PD’s office, he started crying. Hubb was holding him and he hugged hubb tightly and said, “Kia, kia (go, go)” and pointed to the door.
PD found it quite funny and said to him, “Ok la, we kia together.” [...]

On the way back from Butterfly Farm, we made a stop at the Batu Feringghi beach. We need to walk a series of stairs to get to the beach.
Mother had weak legs, so she chose to stay by the roadside as there are some benches to sit on. Hubb, my dad and I then took [...]

Bryan just loves butterflies. Everyday at my parents house, without fail he will ask my parents to take him to the back of their house to look for butterflies. There is a small bush there, so you can always find a few butterflies there. Nothing fancy, just some small white butterflies.
My parents have mentioned many [...]
