Xi is getting bigger, taller, heavier (she will tell you she is 16.4kg now), talkative and smarter. Many people tell me she looks and behaves like a 3,4 years old girl, instead of a 2 year-old girl. She can say from 1 to 30 (both languages) and count beyond 10. I am glad to secure her a place at a kindy which I like and will start next year January. However, she needs to take school bus back to my aunty's house after her school ends at noon. Hopefully she will adapt well to her school life next year and most importantly, enjoy this new episode of her young life and become a more independent little lady.
Ru is a much active baby compared to her sister at the same age. Unlike her jiejie, she loves to crawl (that leads her to more knocks here and there) and crawl really well and fast now. She has also started cruising around and can play by herself quietly longer. Food wise, her nanny has started giving her porridge on top of the pureed food which i still prepare for her. However, this gal is still toothless but we suspect her 1st tooth is sprouting out real soon because she has been drooling a lot these few days.
Baby Kai Zheng and Zhi Xuan jiejie's Birthday Bash
We went to the gals' cousins, Kai Zhen's 1 year old and Zhi Xuan's 5 years old's combine birthday bash on 19 September 2009. The gals, especially Xi have a great time playing with their gorgor, jiejie and didi. As it was near Mid-Autumn Festival, the kids had fun carrying the lanterns at the big compound outside in-laws' house.

Threading Activity
I bought this set of beads and threads for Xi in September thinking of teaching Xi on threading, as one of the more interesting activities during her JG program many months ago was threading thru corn flakes ring. That time she still needed me to hold one side of the thread for her to put the ring thru. However, when i took out 20 of these beads and thread, before I say anything, she has started to put the bead into the thread and within a few minutes, completed a colourful necklace made of the beads and presented the necklace proudly to me. She continued to thread a few more necklace each for those presents - my younger sis, my elder sis, my BIL and me. :)

Wow, Xi is 16kg?! I am so impressed! And she's changed too - her face is more grown-up now :)
I think she'll do well in the new kindie next year :)
