ABC with Xavier

Lilian have been secretly training Xavier. I was surprised when Xavier could call out animals or things that some of the alphabet represents. Moments like these bring a smile to any parent's face.

Lilian: "A for"

Xavier: "Apple"

Lilian: "B for"

Xavier: "Boy"

Lilian: "C for"

Xavier: "Cat, meeoowww"

Lilian: "D for"

Xavier: "Dog"

Lilian: "E for"

Xavier: "El-phan (Elephant) *proceed to do the elephant trunk action"

Lilian: "F for"

Xavier: "Fish *proceed to do the fish action"

Lilian: "G for"

Xavier: "G-raf (Giraffe)"

Lilian: "H is for"

Xavier: "Horse *proceed to gallop around"

Lilian: "I is for"

Xavier: "Ice-cream *pretend to put it in his mouth and eat"

Merry Christmas 2010

Our tree is filled with Christmas gifts this year, mostly for Xavier. And he would like to says a big THANKS to all the generous uncles and aunties by doing a song, a dance and some piano playing. 

First, a Christmas song. Xavier would sway to the Jingle Bell song and shout out two words of the song. 

Next, a "piano performance". We went to my cousin's place for Christmas feast and Xavier seems to be having fun with the piano. 

Lastly a penguin dance. We head to my in-law's place to visit the newly arrived nephew (born one day before my birthday). Xavier gamely don the penguin suit and did the penguin dance.

Hope all of you like what Xavier has performed.

Let's dress the Xmas tree

It's almost Christmas again and this year, Lilian decides to bring out the Christmas tree and dress it up. And we have a little helper Xavier.

Actually we had the tree up a month ago but I been slacking on doing the photos. And I said to myself I better have it posted before Christmas. So here it is.

Xavier did a little dance in front of the tree when we were just starting. He then choose those ornaments he likes (mostly the balls) and put them onto the tree. Actually Lilian did most of the decorations while I was busy taking photos.

Xavier did the honour of putting the star onto the tree. Now what's lacking are the presents...

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Challenge - Not Good Enough

The Hot Pursuit Challenge has ended today. I believe the winning timing remains at 1:21:22 and top five were below the timing of 1:46. The best I did was 2:15 during the contest which is not good enough to win the Bravia TVs. But I did walk away with a PS3 Move Pen that blinks. It's perfect for times when Xavier is whining and crying in the car.

A Page on Xavier's Milestones

Everyday passes by so quickly and before I realise, its almost the end of the 2010. Xavier will turn two soon and although I try my best to document his interesting moments on this blog and on facebook, the facebook entries gets erased after a week or so.

Hence I decided to add a page on the blog where I could put in one liners about Xavier's milestones or interesting day to day comments. You can go to the page either from the header above titled "Xavier - Milestones" or you can click this link to go to it now.

I will try to recall the previous milestones and document it.
