101 Expressions

Sandra's been really busy practicing her "new expressions" and "new activities". She now express herself so much than than the past 2 months! Previously, you can only see her either close her eyes or just staring at one direction. Now, she have all kinds of cries, laughs, stares, wondering, shock, jerky, lazy, smiles etc.. well, refer to MSN emoticons and you can see most of that, he he... Yes, expressions are part of human emotions. Try making funny noises to her and she stare back with huge open wide eyes. She cries? No problem, just carry her up and she stops immediately, and almost instantly she goes crying again as you put her down. Now, it also means she KNOWS! She KNOWS, but maybe do not UNDERSTAND? Strange but quite true, she wouldn't know this Daddy or Mummy is what kind of alien whom she sees everyday, but soon she'll understand. And when she does, it'll be fun, oh ya and harder to take care of too.

Baby's so chubby that you simply cannot resist to either pinch or kiss her cheeks! So elastic and bouncy! Caroline away's scold me not to kiss her that much as she might grow pimples. But it's so irresistible I just had to do it, ha ha, Caroline kiss her alot too. Sandra's expression is so amusing when you give her a peck, she goes arggggg... turn around and stare back again with a tiny smile. She likes it, I KNOW, too, he he...

Then goes the day's activities, look here look there, watch TV (MTV, Adverts and Mission Impossible 3 trailer was her favorite, she likes cute guys aka Tom Cruise I think). Also staring at the LCD sometimes when we carry her while surfing the net, or Caroline playing Maple Story. She still can't hit the delete keys at the keyboard yet so it's pretty "safe" to carry her while we do our stuffs in front of the computer. We also tried playing children songs for her, we have about 10 CDs all for the baby - Rising Up Music, Meal Time Music, Play time Music etc. These are from one of my clients, I "borrowed *Grin* " them and store them in my comp and play to her, a total of few hundred titles! Anyway, we mixed them up so we sometimes played the Meal Time Music while she about to sleep but it doesn't really matter, she's not very interested and paying attention unlike watching her Favorite MTV Music Videos.

Her cries are getting louder and louder, and she sometime screams too, not "cry and scream" but "calling" "Ah!", "Eh!", short sharp screams, like calling for us to come over. Once we thought she's asleep and she goes "IAK!" and it shook me and Caroline, well, it's a matter of time she does that more often. A good thing is that she now seldom do that uncomfortable eweeee, herrmmm, grrr... shreeee... which she makes during her 1st month at home. She also got frightened by our sneeze, cough and sometimes dropping an item on the floor. A huge thunder roar today really shook her, well, it frightened both of her parents, me and Caroline too :)
