    Shower

    “See dad, I’m not so afraid anymore”
    – photo taken by my husband

    My son has always been afraid of the shower. He normally takes a bath in the tub or by using the hose. Yesterday, my husband and I took him to the swimming pool and for some reason, the shower was not nearly as scary to him. Maybe the fact that other kids do it with laughter and fun, made him want to try. Even though he was trying to stop the shower, we thought that it was a good start.

    We hope he will take the shower at home today!

    Throwback Thursday: Yassin at 13 – 15 months

    At 13 months, Yassin finally able to call me ‘Ibu’, oh I forgot to mention that his first word was ‘Abah’ at 11 months. I was so jealous but my husband managed to teach him to say ‘Ibu’. I was at cloud nine when he uttered the word!

    Yassin in Blue
    He turned into his own person at this stage.

     

    Gardening
    He developed an interest in gardening, lol!

     

    Animated
    Yassin could already walk steadily and his steps are more even,
    as you can see it’s hard taking his pictures with him walking non-stop!

     

    Angers

    At this age, he was still prone to a fair amount of tantrums
    -his way of showing a frustration

    Going home

    I have been meaning to post this last weekend but due to the amount of workload and house chores, I simply forgot. Janice’s post about Zac’s class photo reminded me to post this today. Before we went to Genting, we had a small farewell party over at Yassin’s school cum nursery. Yassin will not be attending this school next year as we are moving back to my mom’s place in Ampang by end of November or early December.

    I’m going home
    Yassin made a painting for the school…

    …and gave some goodies for friends

    Yassin’s 1st Sports Day

    Yesterday was Yassin’s school sports day. And I have to say, what a day it was! We’re having a great time!

    All the children took part, even the youngest, there was match-the-pictures game, sack race, fill-in-the answers puzzle and lots more. Yassin was in for two games, building a sand hill and where’s my friend. He won the first and got a 2nd place for the latter. The concept was really good, children who did not won 1st, 2nd and 3rd places also won something.

    To top it all off, there was a game for parents (and yes, I’m the winner!) and lunch barbecue in conjuction with Eid.

    Yassin seemed okay at the beginning…
