Riding Bike!

Charis is riding a bicycle! Can u believe it?

Haha, she's just happily posing for the picture la!

It seems that Charis had a growth spurt in the past 2-3 weeks. She has grown "taller" & has developed much better motor skills. Her face even looks more "mature" now.

Although Charis smiles & laughs easily at people she's familiar with, she also now throws tantrums whenever she's angry; when she sees us eating & she can't have our food; when she wants to grab my hp but I refused to let her have it; when she wants to grab her soft toy but it is out of her reach... etc. Sometimes we wonder why is her temper worst than James & mine combined... did she inherit our good genes of good temper?? I hope she did as time will show.

This pic was taken on my mom-in-law's birthday 2 weeks ago. Although it was taken only 2 weeks ago, Charis seems to have "grown up" quite a lot in her looks & even grown taller!

Hip Kids Boutique

I took these pictures in Gavin's car on the way to church! He & Vanessa had been such a blessing to us, driving our whole family weekly to church, fellowship over dinner, & back home again.

Charis is making funny faces. I realised today that she kept sucking her lips the past week even when she's not sleepy because she was growing teeth! She has 2 teeth at her lower gums now! So fast hor?

If you think the headband that Charis is wearing in these pics is super gorgeous (which it is!), please do patronise the store at http://www.hipkids-boutique.com/. She specialises in headbands, & handmade each & every one of them personally!

Although Charis was wearing one that seems a little big for her, I really love it! The band is neither tight nor loose on her head, thus causes no pressure on her small head, which is of utmost importance to me. Also, it is so sweet & easy to match with her tops. I'm so into headbands & I bought 6 of them for Charis before HipKids Boutique came into existence, but my favourite one is still this one.

In case you are thinking I'm getting some kind of advertising fees, I'm definitely not :)

Hearty Laughs!

This is how Charis laughs when she plays!

Not Baby Anymore

I have grown up! No longer baby anymore! See how much I'd changed!

Sally the Snail

I mentioned in the previous post about how much Charis likes "Sally the Snail" storybook. Well, this is how much she likes it:

She enjoys talking to her new friend, Sally (besides baby Eyeore). I think it's amusing how baby girls tend to have "imaginery" friends :)

Charis Loves Books!

I went to Rivervale Mall today & bought some books for her. They were only $1 each! But of course, they were 2nd hand books.

I read "Sally the Snail" to her today & she enjoyed it so much! She kept smiling at it & reaching out for it! Whenever I point to her the various animals printed inside the book, she kept laughing at them. Her favourite character is Sally & the bee.
