Her First Official Hair-Cut...


i.e. a haircut not done by Mama...

Take a look! More refreshed look, right?

Priceless Grin ;)


Toothless is priceless! Haha, in the context here... Estella's toothless days are over, with her bottom 2 mini munchers emerged just this week!

Estella's Got Her 1st 'Chop' on the Passport!

It was a long ride... our very first road trip... to Cameron Highlands! Thank God that Estella was really cooperative throughout the journey. She had definitely enjoyed the 120 hours of focused attention from both dad & mom. ;)
Climbed the mountain, sipped the tea, breathed in the fresh air, and enjoyed every minute of family bonding. :)
A scenic drive at the BOH Tea Estate! Very beautiful journey up and down the mountain. However, we were surprised that the teabags sold up at the mountains were more expensive than those we saw in the provision shops. Paying for the freshness? :x
Enjoying the cool climate and freshly-brewed tea at the teashop with a splendid view, 1500m above sea-level.
Estella definitely enjoyed the warm cuddle from daddy. Look at her blissful smile. :)
On this trip, we also witnessed 2 new milestones. For the 1st, she can sit up unsupported for quite long during her playtime! She also spent a fair share of time entertaining both dad & mom with her consecutive roll-overs and mini 'leopard-crawl' on the king-sized bed!
Two, this girl is fast! She can stretch and reach for toys she has eyed, like this!
Thank God for His protection upon us throughout the trip, and the beautiful nature He has created. Simply AWED... :)

Estella is 6 Months Old Today


Yes... Estella's 6 months old already! Guess what I discovered over the weekend? There is a tiny white sprout on her lower right gum... The little food munchers are emerging. That explains for the 'extra-wet' drool that some aunties and uncles have encountered. ;)No pictures to show yet.

... And oh yes, she's got her own highchair that she can sit pretty comfortably in now. Can you see her waving to you in the picture?:)

Estella's Outing to the Nature


Out in the nature! It was a really nice adventure that day. The slow drive through the 'Monkey Road' (i.e., road full of monkeys) followed by our little stroll at Lower Pierce Reserviour and a delicious yummy pizza. Estella's definitely enjoying these outings, as much as Mama does! One observation, Estella sure drew a lot of attention, from the waiter to the waitress to the customer buying a take-out at the pizza place...

Thanks to Auntie Nana for making these outings possible!!! More more... Hee...

Estella's Outing to Baby Luke's Place


Thank God for friends who move along the same season of life. It was our second visit to Pat & Pin's Place - once before, and another after Baby Luke's arrival. It's quite easy to spot homes with newborns. The floor space is easily dominated by toys and baby stuff, something which I can identify with back home. Thanks to Pin's wonderful tips on babycare, diet, lobangs for toy-rental, and simply the wonderful friendship in walking through motherhood together... Oh, Uncle Kenneth % Auntie Esther were there too! Look how at ease they are with babies! ;)
