After collecting dust for months in the store room, this expensive little Bumbo had finally been put to good use, as sat by my Isabelle.
After Justin koh-koh saw his mei mei sitting on it, he wanted to have a go. To my wonder, this chair which used to be too small for him fit […]

When hubby and I were dating 7 years ago, we used to say I Love You to each other whenever we hanged up the phone, saying goodbye, before bedtime or on special occasions. But both of us have not been using these 3 magic words after my boy came along.
I think we are probably […]

Justin has a periodically theme where he likes certain things or characters which he’ll choose his books or Barney CDs according to his likings. This week, he’s very much into “Old Man” theme. His selection includes:
1. Santa Clause: He’s a man with white moustache and beard, and I accidentally said he’s an old man. […]

Nowadays, Justin likes to take out his animal book and flip thru the pages by himself. I’ll ask him some questions or tell him the names of the animals if he can’t remember them.
Mommy: Justin, this is skunk. It’ll poot poot fart fart, so it’s smelly.
Justin: Poot poot…*Smile* Skung…Poot poot…*Giggling*
Mommy: This is […]

I buy books for Justin most of the time, but seldom buy toys. Why? He’s afraid of most of the toys in the market! It’s true, and I have no idea why.
We went toy shopping yesterday, and we let him chose his toys. As usual, he wanted to buy balls, and we took 2 […]

Weight: 5.79kg
1. Trying to turn over, but only until facing down. She doesn’t know how to use her arms to help her turn further yet.
2. Cooing, smiling, and ga ga most of the time when she’s alert.
3. Sucking her fists to sleep.
4. Doesn’t like to lie down, but prefer us to carry her sitting […]

Lately, I heard lots of elderly folks told me that it’s better to have daughters than sons as opposed to chinese tradition of having sons as the bearers of the surnames. Why?
Most of them (including my mum!!!) said that daughters will still be “attached” to the family, even if they’ve got married. Most daughters […]

I didn’t measure his height and weight regularly, so I have no idea what’s the measurements. But at this stage, Justin has begun to show his characters.
He likes to dress up nicely when we’re going out. I think he got his trait from me as mommy is very “oi leng”. Most of the […]

Justin’s stroller was a gift from my best friend. He seldom uses it as we prefer to carry him with a sling, and when he’s older, we like to tell him what he sees so it’s easier to carry him to maintain the same eye level than leaving him sitting on his stroller. Needless […]

Tell me if dream talking runs in the family, except baby Isabelle, all of us talk in our sleeps.
Hubby’s Case
I’m a light sleeper, so I’ll wake up with the slightest sound. One night, I heard clappings sound, and woke up finding hubby’s clapping hands in his sleep, smiling and mumbling. I woke him up […]
