Conversation with Caleb @ 3 years & 9 months old

Conversation with Caleb now a day.....

Scene 1:

Yesterday after came back from school, the father would normal bathed him. After bath, he walked over to the dining table, see what's for lunch. I served him a bowl of vegetable porridge. 2 of the things he hated the most, vege and porridge. Hahaha....

Caleb: What's that?

Me: Chuk-chuk (porridge)

Caleb: No, I don't want chuk-chuk.

Me: Yes, you need to eat chuk-chuk. Finish it. (Am I sound like Hitler here?)

Caleb: But I don't know how to finish chuk-chuk.....

Me: I think you don't know how to watch tv too, (Normally I'd let him watch his favourite Artzooka on Astro 612 before his afternoon nap) so, don't watch, ok?

Caleb: Noooo.......I want to watch. I know......

Me: So, finish your chuk-chuk and then you can watch.

Caleb: Sigh....oooookkkkk.

Yeah! Mami 1 - Baby 0

Scene 2:

Me: Caleb, this Jake and the pirate is the last one, ok? (while he watch Disney Junior on tv) After this we go afternoon nap.

Caleb: Ok.

After the programme is finished, I heard some yelling between him and my mil.

Mil: Ok, finish already. Now is Ma Ma's turn.

Caleb: Nooo, I want to watch the next one.

Mil: Mami said finish, last one already. Now is afternoon nap time.

Caleb: Noooo....

I quickly come out from the room and took him in.

Me: Caleb, what happen? What did mami said just now? Did mami said Jake and the Pirate is the last one?

Caleb: Yes....but I forgot.

Me: (Speechless. Dunno what to say...)

Mami -1, Baby -1

JK was there in the room, he took blanket and cover his face - laughing hysterically inside. I have to put on a serious face trying very hard not to laugh.....My goodness, I can't imagine when he get older. The head is full of reasons and excuses. Now I need something to boost up my brain also.....

Don't leave didi behind...

We went back to our hometown last weekend and it was just a very quick 2D/1N stay, just to let my mom and dadto  have a look at 3 months old Caven. Yes, they grow up really fast. Every time I went back home, my mom said Caven looks different.

That night while I was tucking Caleb to sleep, we had a little conversation:

Me: Caleb, didi stay at ah ma's (my mom) house, ok? We go back home in kl. You, mami and dadi only.

Caleb: Noooo.....I want didi. Mami have to bring didi go back home, ok?

Me: But didi always wake up cry cry cry, then how?

Caleb: Didi cry, Caleb shake shake the chicken like this (it's a chicken rattle which shut Caven up every time he cry), then MaMa (my mil) carry didi ngoi ngoi ngoi (what he mean is carry in the arms), then didi no more cry cry already.

Me: Errr.....ok.

Caleb: *not convinced with the reply* Mami remember to bring didi, ok? Didi cannot stay with Ah Ma........

Me: Okla okla......let's sleep.

5 minutes of silent trying to sleep...... and out of sudden...

Caleb: *still not convinced* Mami remember to bring didi, ok? remember ok?

Me: Aiyo....okok. Now sleep :)

Caleb is soooo worried that we will leave behind his little brother. Hahaha.......and I begin to feel that he can be really long-winded (cheung hei).

I got my Octopus at last...

15 days to go....

Yesterday we went for a short trip to Ikea. Ikea always full of people on weekends and I don't know why we chooses to go there yesterday. Ikea is one successful furniture shop, don't you think? Everybody loves shopping in Ikea but I don't see other furniture shop full to the brim with people, not even weekend.

So, we went to check out some single bed because we are going to revamp our store room aka rubbish-dumping room into baby&mother's room. Sounds great. The baby is going to room in with the mother and the father and Caleb won't get startled to baby's yelling. Everybody is doing housekeeping, cleaning, throwing, clearing including my BIL. Hahaha....Nesting effect affected the whole living things in the house :)

Anyway, the best thing is I got my hands on these:

The Octopus!! Looking like this when opened up....

Anyway, jk went to outstation today. When Caleb saw his dadi changing inside the room.

Caleb: Dadi, are you go working?

Jk: Yes, dadi got work today.

Caleb: Noooo, dadi don't go working ok? We go kai kai eat eat.

Jk: It's not a choice. Dadi still have to go work.

Caleb: Is dadi go work and find coins?

Jk: Find coins? Hahahaha.....

Me: Yes, he means money.

Jk: Yes, yes....dadi go find coins.

At last he seems satisfied with the answer and he replied ok and went to the door farewell and kissed his dadi.

Oh my sweet baby hor.... :D

Our silly conversation...

Me and Caleb were having jellies after our dinner one night. As the last piece went into his mouth, I was rubbing his tummy and asked "Caleb, what is in your tummy?"

He rubbed his tummy and said "Got rice, soup, carrots and JELLY!"

And so I rubbed on my tummy and asked him "What's inside mummy's tummy?"

He said "JELLY..."

I said "No, mummy's tummy got baby...."

He frowned and said "NOOO..........mummy no eat BABY, mummy eat jelly,ok?"


LMAO!!!!!

Me: (wahseh, know how to ask me back) Go eat-eat.

Caleb: YEAH!! Hooray! Let's go eat-eat! (happily skipping around)

Me: *pengsan*


My mom commented that I'm cruel for not letting him talk. But hey, sometimes when all you want is some silent or peace, this guy's talking can be real annoying. Hahaha....I know, I know, I shouldn't be complaining. Well this is just another phrase we're going through in 'the walk into parenthood', eh?

Conversation with Caleb

I was cooking lunch in the kitchen this afternoon and as usual Caleb came to me and hugged my legs. Asking me to go and play with him. Aiyaiyai....

Caleb: Mi mi...come come... (*2 volume higher*)

Me: Nooo...baby. Mami said mami is cooking... Please baby, go outside ok?

So, he went out and after 1 minute he came into kitchen again. This time he pointed to the cow fridge magnet and requested me to take it down for him.

Caleb: Mi mi...cow cow....Caleb want cow....

Me: No cooking then Caleb eat what?

Caleb: Eat cake (pointing to the oven....) - yes, I made cupcakes yesterday and he loves it very very much.

Me: Ya ya....you banyak pandai hor. No, cannot eat cake.

When I heard him saying that, I was laughing hard in my heart. Thinking back, true also la, no need to cook, eat cake ma ok lor....
