Teething & Birthday
Dearest Nat,
Yesterday por por told me that you are teething again. I thought I saw 2 white spots on your gum beside your upper front teeth the other night so what I saw are really teeth ready to sprout out. \(^_^)/
I waited till you are asleep to take a good look at your new teeth. They are not out yet, still embedded in your gum, but we can see them when we look really closely. I think they will be fully out by the time you turn 1 year old. I showed Daddy your new teeth too. I'm going to miss your toothless smile very much.
Talking about your birthday, we are planning to celebrate once in Singapore and in Hong Kong. We'll do a buffet at the function room in Singapore and on the actual day of your birthday, we'll celebrate it in Hong Kong. The Singapore celebration is quite straight forward, I just have to send the invitation out. The Hong Kong celebration is more tricky as we do not have a venue and we can only rely on the information we received from your grandpa and aunt Yvonne. Therefore we are still comtemplating whether to hold a party in Hong Kong or not or just have a small dinner with the family.
Your indulging grandpa wanted to celebrate your birthday in Disneyland! I was shocked when I heard that from your grandma yesterday. He really spoils you, my dear girl. You are so blessed. Of course we won't celebrate your birthday in Disneyland. It's too costly and I don't think you will appreciate that yet. Maybe when we are a little older, we can celebrate your birthday by bringing you there.
Your favourite activity now is DANCING! When you hear music, you will move your body to the beats of the music which is quite funny. Sometimes you will put your hands to your chest and nod your head up and down. Sometimes you will clap along and want us to clap too. Just last night, we had to entertain you by singing and clapping with you while you dance your heart away with making "oh oh oh" song. That was hilarious, we laughed till our sides ached.
Another thing I have to write before I forget, your Daddy came back yesterday with a big envelope from his company and inside it is a letter/certificate that reads "Service Star Award". \(^_^)/ Yes, my dear, your Daddy won the service star for this quarter. Though he said the award doesn't mean anything, I'm still mighty proud of him. At least his efforts are being recognised by the company.
One more month and we'll be in Hong Kong! Isn't that wonderful?
Love,
Mommy
