Such behaviour of hers might not repeat again.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When I squat down, open my arms and call Hannah&#8217;s name, she would giggly make her clumsy baby walk towards me and hug me.<\/li>\n<li>She&#8217;d let us hold her hand and walk with her.<\/li>\n<li>When she stood up on her high chair to play, I would give her a displeased look and told her firmly to sit down. It might take her a while but she would eventually &#8216;guai guai de&#8217; squat down. I would continue to stare at her and say &#8220;leg leg&#8221; and then she would slowly put her legs down to a sitting position. She might avoid my glare and then afterwards check whether she had gotten my approval by making some eye contact.<\/li>\n<li>Hannah would shake her bum bum to the beat of songs played to her.<\/li>\n<li>She would walk over and sit on my laps when I hold out a book to read to her. Sometimes she would look up to me and make eye contact while I was reading to her.<\/li>\n<li>She would laugh at us when we make funny sounds.<\/li>\n<li>She would put her little finger to dig my nose and poke through my lips.<\/li>\n<li>She would sit at the entrance to the kitchen where I prepare her meals and &#8216;wait&#8217; for mommy to play with her.<\/li>\n<li>She could understand the meaning of my words even though she could not utter them herself yet. For example, I have asked her to hang her towel back on the rack where she had pulled it off (I didn&#8217;t expect her to do it actually) and she understood me and tried in her own messy manner to spread the towel on the rack.<\/li>\n<li>She would blow me a kiss after I put her down to bed for the night.<\/li>\n<li>She would open her mouth widely and say &#8216;ahh&#8217; for &#8216;amen&#8217; during our bedtime prayer.<\/li>\n<li>She plays &#8216;hide and seek&#8217; with me when it is time for bath. She would disappear from my sight and then reappear to check whether I&#8217;m still around. Upon seeing me, she would giggle and go back into hiding. :)<\/li>\n<li>She yaks on her pink diaper cream tube (pretends it to be a mobile phone).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, we had our share of exasperating moments with her too. For instance, she would sometimes cry without apparent reason.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a recent video taken of her trying to get her hands on her wet laundry and her latest play-thing (green cushion). :)<\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"601\" height=\"338\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=14277310&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=00ADEF&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just some random sampling of cute and endearing moments with our little girl.
