Sharing

Hannah loves ice cream. I always say it's because when I was pregnant with her I craved ice cream and was not allowed to have any :) So anyway, her grandpa indulges her quite often with ice cream and she knows that we do not approve. Nevertheless, we always encourage her to tell us the truth and not scold her, otherwise she may not tell the truth anymore. So everyday, Hubby will ask her whether she ate ice cream or not that day and she will truthfully tell us yes or no. However, the other day, her response was what we lawyers call "qualified" - it's a yes with a BUT :) Here's how the conversation went:

Daddy: Hannah, did you eat ice cream today?

Hannah: Yes, but I shared.

Daddy: Who did you share it with?

Hannah: With myself lor!

After a moment of stunned silence, Hubby tried to keep a straight face and asked her:

Daddy: How do you share with yourself?

Hannah: First, I eat half of the ice cream, and then later I eat the other half!

I posted this on my Facebook the other day and several people commented that she has the makings of a "lawyer" :) I commented further that she said it this way so that it doesn't look like she ate the whole thing by herself! Cheeky Hannah :)

Some updates on the girls:

Hannah:

At 3 years 2 months 2 weeks and 3 days, she can now poo poo in the toilet sitting on her training seat. She was off diapers very shortly after her 2nd birthday (fully trained for pee), but it took her more than a year to convince herself that she could poo in the toilet. Prior to this, she always asked us to wear diapers for her when she wanted to poo. That first day, it took her almost an hour for her to do her business because she was not used to sitting on the toilet, but hopefully it will get easier after this.

Heidi:

Heidi had her 4 month injections yesterday - 2 jabs and one oral vaccine for Rotavirus. She was her happy cheerful self, smiling a lot at the Dr and the nurses while they checked her. She could even smile after the first jab as if she did not realise that she had just been jabbed! However, she complained after the 2nd jab and the one that she disliked the most was the oral vaccine. She spit and tried to choke it out but the Dr and the nurse held her firmly so she screamed louder. After it was over she was fine again :) During the checkup, the Dr turned her on her tummy to see how steady was her head and she could lift not only her head but also her chest off the bed. She is not able to flip yet but Dr said it can be anytime now. Here are some of her tummy time pictures when at home:

She is now 6.3 kg and 64 cm long. Since she turned 4 months old, we have been taking her out more and she loves to go out. Here are some of her pictures last weekend at Queensbay Mall:

The dress and the hat are Hannah's - we hardly need to buy clothes for Heidi as she has a lot of Hannah's as well as her cousins' clothes which are hand-me-downs but in excellent condition. I guess this is the benefit of having 2 girls - they can share clothes, not only now but in future too. I hope Hannah's version of "sharing" next time will be to share things with her little sister, and not "with herself"! :)
