Desperate times call for desperate measures… when all other distractions fail to keep Baby still on her highchair during milk time (fed through spoon-feeding), I will always give her the remote control. Whether it’s the Astro, TV, DVD player or dining table light remote control, that wonderful gadget can surely keep her still for at…
Baby said the word ‘goggles’ yesterday! I was really stunned when I heard her say “dor… gles” when I brought her to the bathroom to have her cleaned up after her lunch. As she said “dor… gles”, she pointed to her jie jies’ goggles which were hanging on the towel rack. When I corrected her…
Here are Baby C’s stash of biscuits: There are more but not in this pic …. butter animal biscuits from Marks and Spencer, Pureen baby biscuits, Heinz orange-flavored rusks, Heinz cheese sticks, plain cream crackers, organic wholewheat crackers and much more. Baby used to get bored with the same biscuit after eating them a few days straight in a row. …
Baby C has a pretty small tummy, just like Sherilyn jie jie, unlike Alycia jie jie’s tummy which can be pretty elastic, thus she has always been rather chubby. Baby has to eat many small meals a day, instead of 3 square meals. She has 2 breakfasts, 1 lunch, 1 mid-afternoon snack, 1 pre-dinner snack,…
Who? Me of course. Baby C’s energy is running really high today and did not nap the entire afternoon. These days, this fler refuses to be put in her cage aka the playpen and prefers to spend all her waking time roaming the house, playing with her jie jies’ toys, climbing on chairs and beds, picking…
Alycia and Sherilyn had their first swimming lesson on Tuesday. Just before they took their nap, I dug out their swimming suits, caps and goggles and laid them on Aly’s bed so that when they got up from their nap, they can hop right into their swimming suits. Baby who was gallivanting from room to…
My mum gets very sentimental with the toys that her kids once played with and clothes that we once wore. She keeps everything from our first blanky to our first Peter & Jane book to just about everything. Oh, she even keeps her maternity clothes which she wore 38+ years ago… which I wore when I…
Ever since Baby C’s first surgery a month ago, she has been super duper, extremely clingy to me. She wants to latch on to my boops 24/7 and has been sucking me dry like a leech. I even have to nap with her for 1-2 hours everyday while she latches on. The second I pull myself away from…
Baby C’s sweet smile of freedom…. finally discharged from the hospital, no more pain, pokes, pricks, prods, insertions, bunches of tubes and cuts. Notice baby leaning towards one side? I guess her wounds were still causing her a tad discomfort and she couldn’t sit up straight. Moreover, she had been lying on her back for almost…
Counting back today, I realized that Baby C, my maid and I had stayed in the hospital for 25 days, which is almost one whole freaking long month of being cooped up in a cold air-conditioned room of the pediatric ward…. 25 freaking long days of not being able to feel the sun or breathe…
I would like to say thank you to everyone who has been praying for baby Cassandra throughout our 3-week ordeal here in Penang. I especially want to thank Paik Ling for going all out to help me organize a fund-raising drive to help ease our financial burden arising from the ginormous medical bill. You’re really a God-sent…
