The little barbarian

I've said it a dozen times - it's amazing how fast little babies grow! 2 weeks ago, we could actually have a real game of hide-&-seek. I'd start the game by saying, "where's mummy?" before scrambling off on all fours round the sofa or into a room. minibeanie picking up on the cue would then crawl pitter-patter to look for me. The reward when he found me would be a most delightful squeal of pure joy :> Sometimes, I'd be mean and climb onto a bed or to the sofa and he wouldn't find me where he expected. Then, there would be a cry of half panic half frustration and whose heart wouldn't melt at that point? Ooohhh......

We installed our baby gate over the weekend because we found out that he could climb the stairs. He also has an insatiable curiosity on what lies inside drawers and cabinets. He first started pulling open drawers especially those with handy handles when we were staying with our friends (the "commune") in their house. That was in mid May. Yes, we are a little tardy in childproofing the home :P I think it's high time we buy a couple of baby locks for our drawers and cupboards.

And boys will be boys. minibeanie has an unholy fascination with remote controls. Anything with buttons. He grabs it first before letting his mouth examine it then proceeds to chew & stomp on it. As a result, our tv and air-conditioning unit goes on & off intermittently :D

minibeanie is 10 months & 1 week old
