My my my.... Erlyna is super cranky I must say... due to her big two top front teeth cutting through her gums. Ouch. Papa commented "Wow.. Didn't know that teething is such a terrible process. How long is it gonna last?" Ah-bah then! U think teething is so easy? Her gums are itchy, painful and swollen. But some babies breeze through teething though, just like Le-Ann, my sister-in-law's gal.
Gotta rely on loads of teething gel now. She's refusing porridge. Gotta bluff her, coax her before she willingly opens her mouth to eat. She's not taking her afternoon naps either. Sigh. Woke up at 12pm all the way till evening time. Initially thought she would sleep at 7 plus after her dinner but NOOOOOOO.. She still wanna play! Papa was off to range and I had to entertain her.
So, I read to her from her little cloth book. There's a big flower on every page of her book and I used her hand to touch the flower telling her that's a 'flower'. After teaching a few times, I asked her to show me the flower and she did! After a while, she got tired of the book and when I asked her where the flower was, she threw the book away. So we tried a different book. Her Old Mcdonald counting cloth book.
Number One shows a lone rooster hidden behind a closed cloth door which u have to open to peek at it. Kept repeating rooster to her and soon, she could open the door to show me when I asked her to show me the rooster. And when she did that, she would look at me and then at the rooster, as if asking me if she did it correctly. Really BTH lor. So cute and fun. I would then praise her when she did it correctly and she would clapped her hands in delight. hahaha.

I know alot of babies at this age are already doing such things but hor, this mummy here quite lazy lah. I will try to read to her more often now. Quite fun. She can't talk as yet so when she wants me to read to her, she would pass me her book. Hee. And when u read to her, she will really sit and listen, looking at the words intently. So cute lor.
Fed her milk at around 9-ish and she KO straight.
