Mattel Toys fair

Mummy & Daddy took a day leave today to visit the Mattel Toys Fair. We sent you to Infantcare Center in the morning & headed to Concourse Shopping center immediately after that. We were the 2nd family to arrive but due to ignorance, went for breakfast, only to find that we were 7th in the queue.

The crowd wasn't as bad as we'd heard. We bought a couple of toys - Sesame Street Singing Pop-up Pals, Bobble & Giggle Pals, Rollin' Rumblin' Dump Truck, Learn Through Music Plus, Stride-to-Ride Walker, Tumblin' Sounds Goldfish, Ferries Wheel, Doodling Board, Hokey Pokey, Doodle-Pro, Little People Musical Ferris Wheel.

You were fascinated with the new window shade that Daddy had bought for you. You also got your Leapfrog Learning pad today. However, you were so eager to crunch up the pages that mummy had to stop playing that with you. Tried putting you to sleep after your afternoon's milk. You spent the time blowing saliva instead.

Mummy trimmed your hair further today & was sad that you had to lose most of your lovely curls. But if your curls don't go, the back of your neck will be sore from your constant scratching.

Mummy finally saw your first teeth! - 2 of them at the bottom gum. No wonder you kept putting fingers into your mouth & using your tongue to "lick" your lower gums all the time.

You showed us that you could crawl! With your right arm underneath your tummy, you push yourself forward with the help of your left arm. We think that you could be left-handed. You enjoyed playing with mummy so much in the evening that you laughed non-stop, right before your bedtime. Mummy cannot understand why you're so fascinated with mummy shouting ABCs...
