The Birthday Girls!

The Birthday Girls!

My sister and her daughter Hannah celebrates their birthdays on the 4th and 6th March respectively. Time flew by like no one’s business, and before you knew it, Hannah is already a year old. A year old… unbelievable. It felt like only yesterday when the whole family was dining out in celebration of my sister’s birthday, which was exactly a year ago. We had the dinner before the day Hannah was born. My sister was in a super-advanced stage of her pregnancy by that time, and Hannah was due at any moment. I guess she wanted to wait for her mummy to celebrate her birthday before announcing her own big arrival.

Happy Birthday Girls!

Hannah has been a rather handful to handle these days, and she is not without her own bag of mischief. My mother likes to compare Hannah to my sister when she was her age; very active and mischievous. Recently, she’s learnt to play peek-a-boo. I have to say, she does it very well. I happen to be lucky to be able to capture my game of peek-a-boo with her on my video cam recently. The adorable thing is that she knows that she has to be in a hiding position first before jumping out to surprise her subject.

Getting in position!
Getting into position...

Pause!
Pausing for best effect... wait for it... andd..

Chakk!
Chakkk!! You can see how seriously she takes this whole peek-a-boo business.. hehe..

And while we're still on the subject of birthdays, Insyirah will be 7 months old tomorrow! Happy 7 month old sayang!

My dear Insyirah
7 months tomorrow!

These images are the reason why parents like myself keep wanting to leave the office at 5pm sharp. Oh well, you parents out there will understand...

Here's to a good week ahead.
