Gymboree Halloween Party

Kalli attended the Gymboree (Shangrila Branch) Halloween party last October 29, 2009. Although it was a bit crowded, she still had so much fun! Below are some videos of her dancing :)



And another one...

I Dreamed

I was trying to make Kalli nap the other day. See, she was really very sleepy but was fighting it. So I took her to our room and told her to lie on the bed. At first I was playing with her ear. That usually makes her sleepy. But she was really fighting it hard. She even told me it was daytime and she wants to go out. I told her she needs to take a nap and, after her nap, she'll have a prize. I then proceeded to sleep beside her. When she saw that I was sleeping, she closed her eyes too. She kept twitching and moving around though so I knew she was still awake. After a while she started hugging me - still with her eyes closed. Then (I guess because of boredom) she started lying down on my back - still with her eyes closed.

Suddenly she opened her eyes, sat down and said, "Mommy, I dreamed!" I was really trying not to laugh.

I told her, "But Kalli, you didn't sleep!"

"I did!"

Hahaha! Oh-oh, I think we're gonna get a lot more of this as she grows up :D

Reading to Friends

Here's a picture of Kalli reading to her "friends". She really loves books (like mommy!). She can actually spend hours in Fully-booked or Powerbooks just reading. We need a library to store her and my books, hahaha.

Enjoy the picture (taken October 10, 2009 - Kalli @ 2 years and 11 months)

The Letter Y

Kalli can talk very well. But even now she still can't pronounce the letter R. It's "wotoy" for later, "latoy" for later. "yabit" for rabbit... you get the point. I bought her this pre-k workbook from national bookstore and there's a section there for phonix. For each letter, you encircle the pictures of those starting with that letter. Kalli's very good at it! When we got to Y though, she got a bit confused...


Mommy: (singing here) The Y says Ya, the Y says Ya, every letter makes
a sound, the Y says Ya.

Mommy: Kalli, does House start with Y?

Kalli: Ya Ya House. No!

Mommy: Very good! Does Yak start with Y?

Kalli: Ya Ya Yak. Yes!

Mommy: Very good! Does Yellow start with Y?

Kalli: Ya Ya Yellow. Yes!

Mommy: You're so good baby! Does Racket start with Y?

Kalli: Ya Ya Yaket. YES!

Oh no, mali! Hahahaha!


This happened a couple of months ago. Even now I still laugh thinking about it :)
