Crawl crawl crawl...

Poor little Baby K seldom has the chance to crawl on the floor because everyone in the family, except me, agrees that the floor is dirty, full of dust and dirt, thus it is not good for Baby K to touch it. =S Baby K is always crawling around his play area, which is the mattress inside my PIL's room. So last night, Kenneth was not in (working night shift), I "kidnapped" Baby K into the room and let him crawl around. "Kidnapped" because apparently, my "shift" to look after Baby K starts only when he wants to go to bed. Sigh... Guess I need to "kidnap" him everyday when i reach home, starting from today!!

Anyway, Baby K had so much fun crawling around on the floor. I was so afraid that he will go and "kiss the floor" and then have bruises... If this happen, then I need to answer to many people! Sometimes I feel very funny.. he is my son and yet, I am so afraid that things will happen to him, just because if things really happen, I need to answer to his very very doting and protective grand parents. Sigh.... Not forgetting, they are very naggy. *LOL* I cannot stand people who nags. *LOL*

Below are some videos that I took while he was crawling around. He can't crawl well... he seems to be sitting on his right leg while crawling. Funny...

My Long Weekend and Random Pics of Baby K

The long weekend was over in a wink of eye! Went to get "beauty treatment" with Ms Tan on Friday. Did spa manicure + pedicure. *shiok* Btw, happy belated birthday! Guess you are having fun in India now!! *LOL*

Didn't do much stuff with Baby K as he was down with very very mild fever, which is due to the 3 upper teeth sprouting out at the same time. Actually wanted to bring him to Gymboree class on Saturday but coz of his fever, we postpone the trip till next weekend. Baby K has very protective grand parents, I wouldn't know how to answer to them if the fever shoots up after going out. *LOL* Met up with besties at night and chill out at Haji Lane area.

Sunday, went to visit Chen Feng and her family. Saw Baby Belden for the first time! He is only 2.5 mths old now. So cute! After that, went to Mum's place but no one was home. *LOL* Mum was away at Penang and Dad was not in. Hang around for a while, had our dinner there then we went back home.

This is my weekend... Hope yours is more interesting! *LOL*

Below are some pictures of our bundle of joy!

Happy to be standing and always love to hit whatever is in front with his hands.
See... smile till can't see eyes!

One morning... when he just woke up and had his milk. He tends to wake up at 6am... coz this is the time I wake up everyday!

" This is the way I sleep at night, I sleep at night, I sleep at night. This is the way I sleep at night, with my butt high in the air!" *LOL* (gosh, it actually sounds nice)

His crib is finally up! But he's not sleeping in it YET!

Not sure why he's so happy... But he sure is having a bad hair day! *LOL*

Glowing complexion. *LOL*

He was fussing and crying coz he wanted me to carry him.

The high chair we bought from States is finally up! The lazy Daddy finally set it... but... set up wrongly!! Need to re-do...

Enjoying his snack....

That Sunday when we went Mum's place but no one was in. *LOL* Distracted by the neighbour who walked pass...

Staring at the standing fan...

p/s: not sure why I can't view my c-box. I think my company restricted it. =(

9 mths old

I nearly forgot... Baby K is 9 months old today!!! Cheeezzz... I think I am really swamp by stupid work... can even forgot such important date. Sigh.. How I miss those days when I was a SAHM. Too bad, don't think I will get to enjoy such life again as Kenneth doesn't want to go back to States coz he claims there will be a loss of income. Sigh... But sometimes, there are just some things (like being there for Baby K's every "first" moment) that money cannot buy. =(

Anyway, these are his progress....

• Have 3 teeth. 2 below and 1 on top. For the top one, the other 门牙(left) is coming out soon also. And the tooth beside the right 门牙 is also showing some whitish sign.
• Able to pull himself to standing position and will cruise around his crib or whenever holding on to things. Still not very good in crawling... think he will walk 1st then learn crawling. *LOL*
• Very good appetite and able to finish one bowl of porridge for lunch + dinner. As for milk, depends on his mood.
• Still very greedy. Expects us to feed him whatever we are eating whenever we dine out. He is able to eat almost everything that we are eating (beside peanuts, honey, etc).
• Suddenly develop this stranger anxiety, even cried when babies crawled towards him.
• Always whine when see me come back after work and will pretend to cry so as to make me carry him.
• Always refuse to let others carry him when he is in my arms (feel very happy that he still knows I am the Mummy)
• Always change into sitting position when he hears people coming into the room while lying down. This applies also when he is very sleepy and about to drift off to lala land.

These are all that I can remember... *LOL* Will update more when any comes into my mind and I will update his pictures soon! Stay tune!!

Busy Work Week....

Work has been madness-ly crazy these few days because out of the 4 managers, 3 of them took urgent leave / childcare leave!!!!! One needs to go back to Malaysia for the granny-in-law's wake, the next one needs to stay at home coz the baby having high fever and the last one, 2nd son having HFM Disease while the eldest son is being hospitalised!!!! And all of them will only be back next week!

So... with them gone, means left only me to cover the 3 of them... This also means I am very very very busy.. and my boss' face is black like 包青天!!

I wanted to go in and talk to him yesterday but was warned that the "weather" in the room was dark and gloomy! My colleague went in before me and told me that it was "thunder storm". *LOL* So, I very quietly retreated back to my seat... Who knows, he came out to look for me... But luckily, he still smile to me... *phew* Guess he should be grateful that I am around. *LOL*

So looking forward to the long weekend ahead... Looking forward to the time I can spend with my little baby and friends!

Random Update

The 4 of us plus one of the executive went into Boss' room yesterday. LP told him that she wants to clear her 6 days of childcare leave in December. Boss is not very happy about it. He claimed that this type of leave should be taken when we need to bring our babies for vaccinations, and asked us not to abuse it. -.-" And I thought government is very PRO FAMILY??????? Then he further said that LP and my section seems to be very quiet after office hours... eh... already after office hours... how "noisy" he wants us to be? He expects us to work OT... like the other section... sigh.... *ROAR* He asked if we can go for overseas assignment... well, what can I say? He knows that Baby K is well taken care of by my in-laws. Hopefully he will send me to some "decent" country. Sigh....

♥

Boss asked me and CL to walk around the office to introduce ourself to colleagues from other departments. He said we need to let our presence known so that work will be easier for us in future. Sigh... Am I being hire to be PR? Maybe I am in the wrong department. *LOL* I am still thinking of how to get this done... Walk around and distribute candy bars to key personnels who we need to liaise with most of the times? *clueless*

♥

Bumped into Lena and Duwei on the train the other day. Lena is one of the wife I met when I was in AZ. Very bubbly and cheerful. She said her hubby going to States again but to another place. As for Duwei, he is an old friend... AC's friend, to be exact. MRT seems to be the place for me to bump into old friends. *LOL*

♥

Walked into Sun Plaza after work yesterday and burnt a big hole in my pocket. =p Bought some dresses and tops and signed up a "trim eyebrow" package. *LOL* Like this, cost me SGD300+!!! Asked Kenneth if he wants to sponsor my spending, he said he will fully reimburse me!! *grin* Like this, why still need me to work since he can substain my spending... hahaha....

♥

Celebrating Ms Aw's birthday this weekend and the next weekend, will be celebrating Ms Tan's birthday! Both besties birthday are in November... same as Kenneth's!!

♥

Kenneth said Baby K is able to hold on to the side of the bed and walk a few steps. I am so sad... I miss witnessing Baby K's first step. Sigh... And when I am home, he never cruise around to show me. He barely knows how to crawl and now is trying to master the skill of cruising. *LOL* Maybe he will start walking before he even can crawl. *LOL*

Jon and Cassi's Big Day

After meeting all the mummies and babies on Saturday, we attended Jonathan and Cassi's wedding on Sunday! Cassi is my Secondary Classmate. We have been the best of friends since then. We reached Pan Pacific at 7.30pm... ahem... we were not late. *LOL* Kenneth actually missed the hotel car park and we went one big round before reaching again. He was so worried that we would be late. *LOL*

This is Baby K's first time attending wedding dinner. He was fast asleep when we reached. Nothing new as he seems to love falling asleep in the car, maybe because of the motion. He woke up when we went into the ballroom. I must say he was very well behave throughout our stay. But he is definitely one very greedy baby. Of all the dishes, seems like nothing suits him. *LOL* Mini Yam Rings were served and I fed him that. Then came the Roast Chicken, I also gave him some. We left early because it was already 10.30pm and baby needs to sleep. It was only towards the end, he started to fuss because he was sleepy. He slept all the way and even when we reached home, he did not wake up.

The wedding was a very beautiful one. =) Everything was beautiful... The bride is GORGEOUS!!! I am so happy to see this best friend of mine walking down the red carpet. =) Cassi, wishing you a blissful marriage with Jon. =)

We went to Mum's place before going to the dinner since Mum stays near town (so miss my old house - good location!) Mum asked me to take a shot of her and Baby K in front of her "prospering" "orange tree". *LOL*
The tree... I don't recall that it's ever so tall...

Baby K always like to scratch his ear these days... coz one of his upper tooth is coming out!!

Been a long long time since Kenneth was in pants + shirt... more than 2 years... *LOL*

My happy family...

Cassi marched in ... accompanied by her eldest brother... =) Beautiful bride...

Very happy to be seated on the high chair.. kept using his hands and bang the table... even when the couples were taking their vows... -.-"

Gathering for the Feb 09 Babies

We had a very busy and fulfilling weekend. =) Brought Baby K to the Feb 09 Babies gathering at Sengkang. As Kenneth needs to work, my personal "driver" sent us there and then came back few hours later to fetch us. =D Thank you, Michael!

This is our first time meeting all the babies and mummies. I was very excited but not so for Baby K. *LOL* He was fast asleep when we were on the way there in the car. Upon reaching, despite the noise (many babies crying and shouting), he continued his beauty sleep. Mummy Tracy commented that Baby K really can sleep! *LOL* I hurriedly ate my lunch but only managed to finish half the nasi lemak and he woke up.

Carried Baby K up from the car seat and put him down on the play mat with the other babies. Most of the babies already know how to crawl and if they came too close to him, he will start crying. And when the babies snatched his toys, he will also start crying. Sigh... So Baby K spent most of the times sitting on my lap.

Baby K did not take part in any of the "competition".. like Longest Standing Baby (think he will cry coz need to stand side by side with the other babies) or the Fastest Crawling Baby (he still can't crawl too well, head will tend to kiss the floor), etc. We just sat by the side and watched. It was indeed a very interesting gathering.

Met lots of mummies and chatted with them. Only remember some of their names. Heee hee.. Coz really too many for me to absorb. Left after few hours and sent Mummy Adeline and Baby Renee home. =) Mummy Adeline is such a young mummy... have 2 kids somemore! *envy* Hope to join more of such gathering next time. =)

Baby K warming up with 2 of his friends... =)
Tu-tu mouth....

Kayden and Aaden... =) *Baby K having red brows again coz was fussing before that*

Bite bite bite...

The most stylo baby... Han!
