5 December - Kaylen's 1st birthday, celebrated in our humble new home in Perth. Time flies, Kaylen turned 1! We have been busy with our relocation to Perth that we have not plan for anything big. We took the kids out to The Beach House, an indoor playground, something like Fidgets in Singapore. We then went to Ikea to have late lunch and shop for stuff for the house. After that, we went to the city, Hay Street, to have dinner and some more shopping. We bought a tiny weeny little cake from Miss Maud's (Kyrene insisted on this cake because its the only cake with Happy Birthday wording, it is chocolate flavour and its small enough for our little family) and 4 cupcakes from the bakery in David Jones. Then, we went home to sing birthday song to Kaylen, cut and ate the cake.
Kaylen started to walk just a few days before she turned 1. Just last month, she was walking but with some support. She would hold on to the wall or chair or cupboard and walk a few steps. Few days ago, she bravely move away from the support and took one step at a time. She is still wobbly, when she looses her balance, she would sit down. We are trying to train her to walk with shoes. The other small achievement is get her to sit on the car seat and stroller. Still not 100% successful because she would not sit on it for too long.
Speech wise, Kaylen is not there yet. She has yet to speak one word. If she wants anything, she would point and scream for attention. She can only makes sounds like "ah, ah, ah" or "er, er, er" or "oh, oh, oh". On her birthday that day, she keeps going "woo-ahhh, woo-ahh", sounds pretty much like she is imitating the crows here. Its very funny actually.
Probably Kaylen is "growing" up. Lately, she just not interested in porridge anymore. She would prefer to eat what we are eating, like rice, noodles, burgers, fries, pizza, etc. She has been eating a lot of potato. Looks like she is literally "eat potato grow up". Haahaahaa...
