I am 9 months old!!!

Today I turn 9 months. :) Mummy brought me to see the doctor aunty to get a "present". My 2nd Pneumococcal jab. And it hurts. :( But good thing is I don't have to have anymore pain pain until I turn 1 year old. So much for the doctor aunty. *bye bye*

So what are my stats?
Weight: 7.7kg
Length: 70cm
Mummy says I am still in the 25th percentile. Doctor aunty says cos I am an active girl and I will not be expected to be like those big sized, round bodied babies. :)

What can I do?
- crawl everywhere
- pick up food with my fingers but I just love to play with them, i.e. not putting them into the mouth
- stand supported
- push myself to a standing position. I still cannot pull myself up.
- throw things that I am bored of
- make one big bubble with my saliva
- eating more cereal and starting my porridge
- wave byebye
- give high fives
- scream very loudly
- sleep on my own after abit of crying and grumbling. :)

Sleep Training -- Day 4

I took 15mins to fall asleep. Even though I woke up in the middle of the night to cry abit, I still managed to get back to sleep on my own.

Daddy is so proud of me. :)

Sleep training -- Day 3

I took half an hour again to get to sleep.

Once mummy finishes the bedtime story and starts to shower me with cuddles and kisses, I see the bed as my enemy. :p

Not sure why, I woke up in the middle of the night and the cycle to make me get back to sleep starts all over again. Another half an hour at 1 something in the morning. Sigh

Daddy and Mummy didn't respond to me calling them and they only came in for a short while.

Hope that next few nights will be easier.

Sleep Training -- Day 2

Mummy and Daddy says (more like the magazine that they read says) this will be over in 3 days max. Day 2 of training. Maybe I was tired and I cried less. Only took me half an hour to get to sleep.

Mummy is so proud of me. :)

Sleep Training -- Day 1

Daddy and mummy is putting me on training to sleep on my own. They use this method where I will have to cry *sobs*.

Today, after reading me my bedtime story, they put me into the cot. It took me 1hr to get to sleep. I cried the whole time.

I managed to sleep through the night only waking up once in the middle of the night compared to the previous night. :)

More tomorrow.

Shrek baby

I am a Shrek Baby. I love it when my parents become Shrek and Fiona. :p

Bye bye...

Today is the last session of my music and movement class in Kampong Playhouse. So fast 4 lessons has whizzed by. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and at the same time, I helped mummy build some muscles. :) Not sure if mummy is going to sign me up for more classes. She didn't really talk to the teachers much so I don't think I'll have a chance for any class anymore. Maybe when I am slightly older.

Here's some pictures of what I have been doing.



I learnt some new songs too. "Hello Song", "Muddle Frog", "Everybody loves Baby", "Yankee Doodle", "Piggy Jig", "Rig-A-Jig-Jig" and some others that I cannot remember. Also I got to play with wood instruments, egg shakers, rain maker, drums, parachute, etc.

Have a look at how pro I am with those egg shakers and me trying to play with the parachute.



Itwas quite a fun experience. :) Will look forward to more of these classes. :p

I can stand

Today, I managed to stand up while supporting myself on the chair at grandma's house. Too bad daddy and mummy weren't there to see that moment. However, I showed them what I could do by the table when they came. I'm so proud of myself and I'm sure daddy and mummy are too.

One more milestone in my life. :)

Preparing for Pre-School?

Many korkors and jiejies are taking important exams now. I have my own exams to take too. So I need to study really hard.

爸爸不在家 part 2

Daddy went to India from 1st Nov to 7th Nov. But a a family we went camping at grandma's house from the 31st Oct as Daddy's flight was 7am in the morning. This time of camping, Mummy and I didn't do much as I still had to go to my other grandma's house. Mummy only brought me out on Saturday, Sunday and Thursday.

However, I had a new toy and some new clothes that my grandma bought for me.




Saturday (1 Nov)
Daddy left for India early in the morning. When I woke up, Daddy had already left. So its just me and mummy. In the afternoon, mummy brought me to Sentosa with Aunty Jiejie J (as requested by this aunty). She gave me a mushroom that makes alot of noise. But the mushroom is now noise-less cos the sound box is spoilt. Thanks to my violent knocking and throwing. :p





I got the blue one.




Sunday (2nd Nov)
Mummy brought me to church and after that we went with some other korkor, jiejie, aunty, uncle to a cafe to have lunch. It was a short outing. We went home after lunch and once we reached home, it was raining heavily. I decided not to sleep/nap and just continued playing with my new toys and some other toys that mummy brought over for me.


Here's me playing dress up.




Thursday (6th Nov)
Mummmy picked me up from grandma's house and we went shopping. Mummy brought me to City Hall, Raffles City for dinner with some korkor and jiejie. They had Japanese food while I had only my packet of wet tissue to play with. Sigh. The life of a baby. How boring can it get.

Anyways, after mummy finished her food, it was my turn to drink my milk. Nice nursing room they have in Raffles City. After my drink, we adjourned to The Coffee Club. Mummy let me try some rasberries. Nice. :)



Friday (7th Nov)
Mummy woke me up at 7am to drink my milk and get changed cos the aeroplane daddy was on is arriving at 8am instead of 830am. So after my milk, still in my dazed state, I bathed. Still dazed, I was put in the car and we went to T3 to pick daddy up.

That completes my camping trip.





Not as exciting as the first time but it was still fun. Playing with my cousin's diggers and bulldozers.


I think there will be a part 3 in Dec. I'll be camping again. :p
