Naughty Acts

Now that Xin Rui is getting older, she's also getting naughtier day by day. Below is a list of her naughty acts (in no particular order of level of naughtiness) :P

1) Opening drawers and throwing things around

Xin Rui loves to open the drawers of the TV console and throw every single thing out on the floor. I used to put them back immediately after she throws them out. But after some time, lazy me just let her throw everything out and I will only put them back after she falls asleep because there's no end to her throwing the stuffs out. If she sees me put them back, she will immediately throw them out again. Then I thought of an ingenious plan and took everything out of the drawer. Xin Rui then put everything back in the drawer. Just when I thought my plan worked, Xin Rui then proceed to take out all the stuffs from the drawer again. Sigh. So now, we bought some device to lock the drawers up :P

2) Climbing up and down the sofa, chair, bed and boxes

Seeing Xin Rui stuck in the box.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry...sigh...

3) Terrorising The Dog and playing with the water in the dog's drinking bowl
My dog, Munk Munk has become Xin Rui's new plaything. She will bully him when there's nothing else to play, especially during bedtime when both of them are in the bedroom. Munk Munk will try his best to get out of her way but Xin Rui will also 'try her best' to disturb and terrorise him. Sigh....

4) Hitting Us

Xin Rui will hit us sometimes. Though it's not painful, we are trying to teach her that it's not right to hit people....sigh....

5) Crying to get things done her way

I guess most kids do this, so we try our best to distract and divert her attention as far as possible. And the fact that she likes to cling onto me when she knows she's in the wrong is not helping. Who can resist such an angelic face as below? (think Puss in Boots in Shrek, hahaha!)

6) Refusing to be fed and insist on feeding herself and making a mess

Most kids go through this phase cos they want to be 'independent' and show that they can feed themselves. Hahaha! It's actually a good thing that she wants to feed herself. But cleaning the mess left by her is not very environmentally friendly especially when you do not have extra hanky. Sigh...
