Grown Up

A few incidents happened today which made me realised how much my 2 baobeis have grown.

1st, we went to the Indonesia Embassy this morning to renew Asty's passport. While waiting for Asty to take her pic, I went to the car to feed Dawn. After 5 minutes, she unlatched herself & smiled at me. As her feed was too short, I tried to latch her on again. However, she refused to & kept smiling & talking to me in her baby language. Then I told her very sternly that if she don't want to drink her milk, then she can't complained later that she's hungry. To my surprise, she actually nodded her head. I thought that it was a fluke & told her the same thing again. Again, she nodded her head. I laughed & told her that she's a really cheeky gal. Her reply? More smiles & baby talk...

2nd, I went to pick up Daryl from school in the evening. On the way home, we went to buy McDonald's for dinner. On the drive back home, the following conversation took place.

D : Mummy, you buy McDonald for Daddy?
M : Nope, coz Daddy is working, so he's not eating dinner.
D : Mummy, you buy McDonald for Kaka? (kaka refers to Asty)
M : Nope, coz Kaka don't want to eat dinner also.

His reply to me then is priceless...

D : Hey, why everybody don't want to eat dinner?

When I heard that, I totally cracked up!

3rd, Daryl had taken his evening shower & was jumping on the bed while watching Playhouse Disney's 10 days Play & Learn Camp show. I was undressing Dawn for her evening bath then. As I was afraid that Daryl would accidentally hit Dawn, I told Daryl to stop jumping around. If not, I would smack his backside. Daryl's reply to me is of coz "Nope". So I told him again in a very stern voice that I would really smack his backside if he doesn't stop jumping. Dawn's response was priceless. She actually laughed... I don't know whether she laughed coz she find that Daryl's jumping is very funny or my threat to Daryl is hilarious. When I heard her laughed, I said the same thing to Daryl & she laughed again. *faint* Then I looked at her & said, "You also want Mummy to smack your backside?" Her reply? She actually shook her head! When I asked her the same question, she gave me the same response by shaking her head.

Omg... my kids are getting more precocious by the day!
