Continuation

My last update was 31 Jan 2008. Time really flies, we have experienced Spring, Summer, Autumn and now Winter again! Just in case I would like to read previous posts, it is at http://patrol-gabby-faith.spaces.live.com/

In the last 10 months, Gabby:

1) has celebrated her 2 yrs old birthday,

2) gone to She San and eating pop corns was the highlight of the day for her,

3) had her first horse ride and visited the golden rooster lake aka "Jin Ji Hu" at Suzhou after a 12 hours journey,

4) went to Qing Dao for our first beach holiday wearing at least shirt and jeans due to the cold weather, flew her first kite which we upgraded several times from 10rmb to 100+rmb!, pretended to eat her star fish and had her first pets in the form of 2 tortoises but lasted only a couple of hours as the airport disallowed any live pets on plane. :(

5) registered her first school in Singapore during our summer holidays, "Carpe Diem",

6) increased her vocab to a few hundred words or even thousands,

7) understood English, Chinese and Cantonese without us deliberately teaching her Cantonese!

8) can skip, initially raising her right arm for better balance and then able to hop and now jump about 1 step ahead,

9) has gone to her first school in Shanghai and spoke her first " lah" effortlessly albeit a bit slow. She will say, "I want to do this ............lah!"

10) spitted out her first fish bone,

11) showed her first pretentious laugh that goes "hee hee"
