OMG!
As if you wanted to make known your point that you are a Singaporean, sweetheart decided act like Singapore's most iconic figure - The Merlion.
Last night, darling finished your milk in record time... 4 scoops of milk powder, topped up to 160ml... & blink! Before mummy had time to warm my seat in the study, mummy heard grandma say "Finished!"...
Well, sounds normal enough to anyone else reading this. BUT! To anyone who has tried to feed you milk, they will know what mummy means by AMAZING! Cos usually darling will only reluctantly down your milk if there's someone there to sing to you, dance or read to you to distract you... Yesterday, there was no such need. DArling just happily sucked away... And so mummy thought, for once, darling decided to give mummy a break!
When mummy heard that you've finished, mummy went out to pick up your bottle for washing. Then, when grandma put you back into the sitting position, the Merlion show started... Everything gushing out fast & furious... & I mean EVERYTHING!
It was really scary... The amount coming right out of darling's mouth within the few seconds...
End product: Darling's soiled clothes, grandma's soiled clothes, soiled sofa cover & mummy's just mopped floor!
Yet the funny thing was, the person least affected by it all was: Darling.
My lil' sweetheart was still all cheery & smiley.. Seemingly enjoying the buzz in the house... Mummy cleaning you up, grandma hurrying to change, grandpa & mummy trying to clear the mess that your merlion stunt got us into....
Sigh... To translate & quote what grandpa said to you last night: A lil' spit from you & you manage to get all of us so busy & frantic...
Except, of course, it wasn't exactly as lil' as he described...
Maybe the throwing up had relieved you of all your discomfort, which made you even more active... Singing aloud & kicking about while lying on your bed...
Thinking back on last night, mummy can only smile a resigned smile & shake my head at my precious lil' gem who never fails to give us surprises... Pleasant or not. =)
Luv,
Mummy
