Jealous

I guess Lucas does not hang along with Tin Tin well.

Lucas became very moody tonight because he saw I played with Tin Tin and trained him to sit down.

He kept staring at me for quite a long time, but when my eyes reached him, he yelled loudly.

And when he saw we scolded the dog because it chewed fruit shell and seed, his face showed a cunning broad smile.

I think I should not attach myself too much to the puppy. We have so many family members to be close friends with Tin Tin.

We then rushed back to our room and announced to Lucas that it is the mommy-baby exclusive session, no puppy is allowed.

Disneyland Visit

Imagine we went to Disneyland under the fierce sun on July 13-14, three times - July13 morning, July 13 evening, and July 14 afternoon.

Actually we stayed in Disnelyland Hollywood hotel overnight, and we had the unlimited access pass in those two days.

Okay, it is lucky all of us remained in solid form under too much of sunshine exposure, Lucas also got sun-tanned after the two days.

After all, this is still a nice 'trip', Lucas is the happiest person among us, he ate the most (in proportion, of course), sweated the most and ran the most.

But he did not like the water-splasking parade much.

Tip toes

Guess what is the latest game Lucas likes to play? TIP TOES

He has such a pair of strong legs, he always squats and stands up suddenly and walks with tip toes. His little technique is - try to extend all the toes as wide as possible, thanks to those long toes inherited from his mom.

Lucas, you are just one year old

BB, you are just one year old, you don't have to look like a model, with those Calvin Kieln's models' eyes, staring at the camera in this way.

帶著三個小孩的一天

其實我倆已有帶著三個小孩上街的經驗，但今天仍有點吃力。幸好有我家及菲傭姐姐幫忙，而且跟這麼多小朋友一起是很愉快的事。

今天，我們一行九人到Pizza Hut吃飯，包括我爸媽妹，謝菲，麗斯，以及三位可愛小孩─朗朗，樂樂及晴晴。旁邊的人也向我們投以奇怪或好奇的目光，有幾位師奶的眼神更像說：嘩生那麼多幹嗎？不用說，全世界也以為這三個人仔是由我及謝菲所出。

吃飯時他們尚算安靜。朗朗很簡單，只要有得吃，又可以拿著匙餵自己，已經很滿足。

飯後到了我爸媽家。很女孩子的晴晴對我妹的護膚品及手飾很有興趣，幾瓶潤膚露也可令她樂上半天。朗朗則到處跑。樂樂就畫畫，他畫了一幅商場畫，內有糖果店、日本城、黃埔商場、德福商場、沙田新城市廣場、蠟燭店、保鈴球場等。

之後我們到咖啡店High tea，朗朗不想呆坐，在咖啡店內外到處碰。幸好妹妹幫手追著小馬騮，不然我這副雖然不太老的骨頭也會散。

五時多我們便回家，朗朗在車上睡著，現在已七時，他仍在睡。

Lucas babbles

Lucas picks up lots of single words and sounds in these few weeks, such as:

• A (this is the first word he speaks when he sees any text, including Chinese)
• C or Si
• Shoe
• zi (purple in Mandarin, learnt from a picture card)
• S (well... or ass... surely this is not a good moment to teach him hole)
• Boo Boo (we don't know what it means, but sometimes he says this when pointing to a ball)

Dragon Boat Festival

Lucas and we went to Shatin Shing Mun River bank to see dragon boat competition yesterday. However, he was not very interested because the weather was quite hot and not comfortable.

See the little cute hat Lucas was wearing? Actually he is very repulsive to wear anythings on his head, including this one. When we put it on, he took it off, we had done this put-on-take-off 'game' for 10 times, he only gave up when I held his hand and explained to him why he should wear a hat...And then after 15 minutes, he pulled it up and threw on the ground finally.

Swimming Baby

I am talking about Lucas.

He is a fearless baby, having natural high when surrounding by water.

Interview with God

I don't like those 'Chicken soup of heart' things, but this one is exception. Quite inspiring. Wanna share with you...and also with Lucas.

香港始終有你

Walk your own road baby!

A big fat sashimi feast

Don't worry, Lucas could only look, not taste the raw fish.

But he DID try to eat wasabi, he used his hand to smash the wasabi paste and intended to put it into his mouth. We stopped him in the right time.

Otherwise the stimulation of wasabi will cause two possible outcomes: 1. He is scared of all spicy food or green paste or Japanese restaurant, or 2. He falls in love in it and wants us to put it in all of his food, including milk... Wasabi milk, can you imagine?

Detachable

I feel heart broken last few days because Lucas did not attach to me... much.

He always wants to stick with Lisa, or even my mom-in-law, just not to me.

I am silly but I did cry a lot because of that.

However, when I left home for work this morning, he was looking at me by a pair of tearful eyes, stretching his little hand out to try to touch me.

But what can I do? I should get back to work...

I am feeling very hurt, but the rational me always reminds me not to be that obsessive, it will make Lucas uneasy.

Arrrrrrr, what can I do????? He is just one year old, but it seems my emotion is so moved by him...

A childish mom - it's me

Seems I was happier than Lucas.

A good reader and listener

Lucas can almost totally understand our daily conversation and have interaction with us. He can react to both Cantonese and English.

As a book lover, I also encourage my kid to read. We buy him several 'touchy-feely' books - those books with pictures in different textures and eye-catching colour which arouse children's interest to read. He loves them a lot and always says 'A' loudly when he opens the first page, no matter what is showing there.

What a cute little angel.

Fashion show S/S

Hot baby Lucas was performing a captivating fashion show on last Saturday, Grand dad's home. He received non-stopping applause from audiences.

If we have a second child...

I have a discussion about having a second child with Jeff last night (Actually he raises this discussion all the time)...

If I have a second child and she is a baby girl, I will give her a name 'LUNA'.

Luna means moon, moon bean, god of moon...... This name matches 'LUCAS' perfectly as 'LUCAS' which means light.

Except 'Luna', I had also considered the name 'Lelia', because in Star War, the hero and heroine - the twins are called Luke Skywalker and Lelia Skywalker..... Hahahahahahha!!!

Lucas recovers well

Thanks god that Lucas is getting better and better. The red colour in eyes is fading out also, and he has no more fever.

What a great relief when you see his chubby face is coming back.

Lucas, once you get totally well, we will celebrate your birthday with you again, only three of us!!!

Kiss!!!

7X24 Fever

朗朗經歷左7x24小時發燒後,今曰足於退燒!
醫生話佢好有可能係中左腺病毒(adenovirus),尼隻病毒會襲擊身體結膜,所以朗朗喉嚨發炎同眼仔紅左.
小朋友發燒感冒常有,最重要睇佢肯唔肯食同玩.
朗朗希你以後更加強壯.

Roseola

Jeff brought Lucas for a medical consultation again this morning.

The doctor said he may infect Roseola, a common illness among infants from 3 months to 1 years.

For further information, please visit this link: http://www.healthline.com/adamcontent/roseola

He is still having fever, but doctor said it will not cause any big harm to him. Once rashes come out, the temperature will drop dramatically.

I do wish the red spots will come out very soon and Lucas will be recovered.

I am in office, just finished several rushing works, but my heart is already with my kid. It is so difficult to be a working mom.
