Flip over!

3 days ago still trying very hard...

After a week of hardwork, Ziqian had finally made it and flipped over (at his 3mths, 2 weeks and 4 days)! When i was gonna change him for his bedtime... I guessed the biggest motivation were the toys (piglet didi + bell ball ball) on his left, hence he kept trying and finally did it! After which, whenever i put him down on his cot, he always got strong urge to "perform" for mummy :p

He is a happy boy!!!

The most wonderful sound i ever heard... :) And with daddy & mummy background's laughter... a hee-hee haa-haa orchestra brought to you by A.B.C. family :)

*p/s: the video effect is not that good after the rotation, seems compressed. mummy will find ways to further improve the quality of it.

With daddy

Ziqian loves his daddy to carry him like this... :)

Learn to drive daddy's car. I think ziqian will get his driving licence before me! haa... :p

Koala bear on daddy while mummy going to shop for CNY clothings...

Look at the cutie face, he is getting more and more adorable each day! We always feel so grateful for having such a lovely boy... He doesn't come easily, hence he's really the precious of our life... our everything...

So delicious...

chuk chuk anytime.. anywhere...

when mummy playing wi him...

when prepare for him for bath...

when after his milk milk...

Always wana stop him from licking his fingers, but cant help to smile when i see him enjoying it so much... Is it really taste that good my dear? And you never fail to amuse mummy with your endless chuk chuk sound... :)

Trying hard to flip over

Ziqian decides to give it a try today. Such a pity that mummy was expressing milk then so couldn't get my camera and record this special moment. But at least im still able to multi-task, capture some shots wi my hp while "cowing"... haa!

To Ziqian: Good try! Though u didn't succeed to flip over this time round, but mummy believe you will be able to do it very soon... No hurry k, enjoy the trying the process.. Mummy will always by your side and cheers for you! Jia you jia you... :)

Bumper mat + Combi rashule chair

2 new additions! Really find that the Combi rashule chair is a good buy as i can push ziqian around the house and let him view different sceneries while im doing housework. He seems to enjoy his luxury chair coz it's extremely comfy... Though it costs mummy & daddy $279, but as long as ziqian is happy, everything is worthy!

Finally...

i plucked the courage to bath baby myself... :p

I guess nobody will believe this mummy just started to bath baby after 3 months & 3 days from baby's arrival! haa... I always wait for Dear back from work and bath baby together coz i feel that im not competence enough to bath baby myself...

I finally did it today! and Dear praised me for the good performance coz i was very calm and well-prepared for it. And baby seems to enjoy himself very much coz he keep smiling at me... :)

Sms my mum after the bath and this is her reply:
"听了很开心，颁一个勇敢奖给你"

So happy to see this.. Though i know its nothing great, but this "achievement" really makes my day!

To Ziqian: baby, mama did it! and i hope you enjoy yourself very much... mama loves to clean your bui bui thighs and arms... look forward to our everyday bong bong session k! :)

1 chicken, 1 doggie and 2 piglets

Ziqian was really happy oh! :)

Enjoyed my night wi the mummies & babies... Time flies, it just seems like yesterday that we attended each other weddings... Now all of us promoted to mummies... Thanks tong ma and ah eng for the friendship and all the supports during my pregnancy & early motherhood! Look forward to our coming CNY gathering! :)

Tong tong...

My sis had just send me some of my cutie niece photos. Really make me wana fly over to kiss and pinch her face! haa... Tong tong, er yi hopes that you will adapt to the new environment soon and be well taken care of at the infant care there... Muacks!!!

2nd round of vaccines

At his exact 3rd months, Ziqian had his 2nd round of vaccines injections: 6-in-1, pneumococcal and rotavirus. He was 7.01kg in weight and 65cm in length. Doc commented his weight was in 75 percentile and length was in 85 percentile, not overweight just BIG baby :)

Ziqian was grouchy and bad mood today, so i foresee the injections will be a very hard time for him... True enough, he yelled so loudly for both the injections. When doc wana do the 2nd injection (pneumococcal) on his other thigh, he kicked so vigorously, doc said he was a clever boy as he knew the history gonna repeat again. And after a few minutes of the rotavirus oral jab was done, Ziqian spit out quite alot of milk and we believed the vaccine was out togther wi the milk as well.. So, after discussion wi doc, we have another rotavirus vaccine done...

So heartpain that Ziqian had to go thru all these... Mummy sayang sayang..

Look at the pitiful face... oh...

Nursing room @ Jurong Point

The purpose of this shopping trip was to shop for my CNY clothings, but but but... we ended up at Kiddy Palace and bought baby stuff again... :p

Photos taken at the nursing room @ jurong point. Who does Ziqian resemble more? Papa or mama? :)

Multi-tasks

At such a young age, he understand the importance of multi-tasking (licking his fingers while massaging his head)... Haa! :)

His little hands

Ziqian starts to grasp and pull things that interest him.

He pulled my camera stripe while i took photo of him, i believe he wana learn to be the cameraman rather being photographed always... haa!

Then, he grasped the hanky and threw it away!

Think his next target will be either his or my hair. Guess it will be mine, coz his still short :p

Superman

Today i lost my tempered wi ziqian, coz he kept fussing around when i fed him and i was very tired of all these so i just put him down on bed and let him cried... and i also was also weeping and feeling angry and guilty at the other corner...

Luckily Dear back home from work and came to rescue, he always so patient and caring towards ziqian... He handles him with extreme patient, plays with him, cleans his poo poo, coaxs him to sleep everynight, wake up for baby's midnight feed everynight... He initiates and volunteers to do all these without grumbles and complains... Sometimes i really salute his patience towards ziqian... I love to see them "communicate" with all the "a..e..i..o..u.." ziqian seems to enjoy talking to his papa also coz he will always follow and mimid his papa's laughs... it's so heart-warming to see them entertaining each other :)

Being a fulltime mummy at the moment, i don't think i do my job well. Always impatient and too idealistic on ziqian's feedings and behaviours... Something that happen not according to schedule will make me angry and paranoid... Dear is always there to comfort and assure me, baby is not robot, let him decide what he wants and we shall follow his cues... I did some self reflections after which, true enough, i realised i have been a very stubborn person, and everyone around me just give in and accommodate me... Now, i have to change this bad habit of mine coz ziqian has become my little boss... This change is for good, so i will be someone with more patience and ziqian shall learn this good trait from me and will not grow up to be another 秦始王。

Thanks Dear... You are the greatest dad and husband... You are my Superman...

2008

Happy New Year my sweetest darling! you are sleeping so soundly now and mama just loves to sneak by your side and smell your lovely scent... :)

Ok, my new resolutions for the year:

1) Being a good mum is definately not easy, it's a life-long learning journey and i shall put in my best to be a better mum, shower baby with all my love, and wish that he is healthy and happy everyday... :)

2) To shed off all the fat and return to my pre-preggie figure. Though it's difficult but i will work hard towards it!

Suddenly think of a new resolution to add on:

3) To get my driving licence this year! Now then i realise the importance of it after having baby... So when Dear babysit Ziqian at home, i can drive and shop! hee...
