'New' play friends!

Renee wasn't half as excited about going to her 'gu gu''s place today as compared to going to my 2nd sis' yesterday, but she didn't want to leave when it was time to! hahaha

I started telling her about today's gathering a few days ago and her response had been that she only wants to play with her 'min min jie jie and min ni jie jie'(her daddy's eldest bro's 2 daughters) but the minute she stepped into her gugu's home, she was welcomed by her very friendly cousin, Xuan Le and they immediately held hands and became good friends hahaha. Oh, this little girl's abt 3 weeks younger than Renee but she's taller than her and even helped to remove one of her socks when we arrived lolz...
The whole evening, she kept addressing her as mei mei even after we've told her that Renee is jie jie hahaha. At the beginning, I even heard her calling Renee 'baby' hahahahaha.
At one time when they were playing in one of the rooms upstairs, Renee wanted to use the toy spatula to 'cook' but Xuan Le told her : "later I finished I give to you ok", but Renee was still very sad... and Xuan Le 'sayang-ed' her by patting her on the back and kissed her! I find that act sooo adorable that I quickly asked them to pose/hug each other for some quick shots and woah, these 2 girls were sooooo willing man! hahaha. And seeing that they were both so co-operative, I asked them to kiss each other and once, they did it simultaneously and kissed each other on the lips and from then on, Xuan Le doesn't wanna repeat the act anymore hahaha.

Even though I didn't manage to catch all those wonderful acts with my camera on time but I've got some pretty nice ones and even a couple of videos of them playing :)

Dinner was much more relaxing for me there this year *phew*, becos Renee is feeding herself and even when she was distracted half-way through, her min min jie jie will feed her! And the little 'jap girl' upon my warning of "u better finish your food fast if u want to go play with everyone", told her : "if u want to play with us, u have to eat" hahaha. Even her younger cousin also deliberately asked her to look at her eating, to remind her to eat whenever Renee stopped hahaha, it was really quite a sight. Very good team work and in a very sensible way... so nice :)

As Renee's having such great time, I thought I shld pre-warn her about going home since she'd be starting her pre-nursery tomorrow. So, at around 10mins to 8pm, I told her "renee, we're going home soon" and she went "no no! go home later, please...". And at around 8:10pm, we told her the same thing and she started to cry and said the same thing each time we told her we're going home. Finally, at 8:30pm, I told daddy, no matter how late we drag til, she'll still not want to go home, so better go up there and get her and true enough, she cried again, harder this time as it's for real and said she wanted her cousins to go to our place to play with her.....
