Having fun taking photo with a real phone

Alyssa has a fake mobile phone and Mami and Papi don't let her play much with their mobile phones. So it was the first time that Mami allow Alyssa to play with the camera function of a real phone. She was very happy.

Our little hercule

Our little hercule! She can pick up a big box of diapers. She sounded strong too.

Saying mama and baba in Cantonese way

Know all the other family 'members'

Alyssa could find out Dilbert, what a surprise! Dilbert was in her room in one of the toy box and she could find it so quickly. Little kid's memory is amazing!!

Now Alyssa knows all the 'members' in our household, including Singing dog, Jacob the cat, Dilbert and Winnie the Pooh.

However, the way she said Dog (狗狗)and Dilbert (Dil) sounded like foul language in Cantonese.

We love hugging

Mami, Papi and Alyssa had so so much fun with hugging that evening. Alyssa was running between Mami and Papi to give them heart-melting hugs over and over again. Papi remembered to capture one of them :-).

When Alyssa gave a hug, she patted Papi/Mami's back too, it is so cute.

Playing with big gym ball (2)

These days, we have dinner around 6pm (when we were in Germany, we had dinner around 7pm, but now Alyssa seems to be hungry around 6pm already, so we just follow her need).

After the dinner and before her 8pm-milk time, she has lots of energy to spend, it is kind of good as she goes to sleep pretty easily these days.

This is a video taken during this after-dinner activity time.
