Coo...

Honestly, it's been the longest 7 weeks of my life.

The baby consumes me, I'm tired of losing sleep, of constantly worrying if my baby is eating enough or too much, will he keep warm in the winter, is he sleeping enough, is the colour of his poo normal, is he growing ok, is his giant booger interfering with his breathing... etc etc etc...

But like every mommy, i am my own son's biggest fan. He is alllll i think/talk/dream about these days. All the cons of motherhood is worth it when your baby does this...



He coos and smiles at me when i play with him everyday. I just wonder how come i'm so lucky to have such a cute baby. My life as a mother is slowly unveiling like a cliche. I see it happening and i can't stop it.

My boy likes the camera

He may not look like me at all... but we have at least one thing in common.

I swear i didn't know he also stuck out his tongue!!

Baby mario

A mommy friend organised a Super Mario birthday party for her son right about the time T turned 1 month old. It was quite a challenge dressing the family cos T was too small to fit into a jumper, I was too fat, and Mountain Man is Mountain Man, he'll refuse to get into a jumper even if i begged.

But I really hate to disappoint when a theme is involved. Besides loving to dress up, it's also as a sign of courtesy to the host. So i came up with this ingenius idea of colour printing Super Mario pictures and sticking them on our shirts. Cheap, right on the theme, and simple to pull off...

Here's the result...Drumrolls.....TADA....

Mountain man came up with the idea of sticking Mario's body on his T-shirt. haha. We had really good laugh cos it was so lame.

It's Britney Bi*ch

It's halloween again. My favourite made-up holiday cos i get to dress frivolously... This year, i am my favourite pop-star in her trippy/bi-polar pink wig phase.

I'm cam-whoring in my own room cos it's highly inappropriate to cam-whore in public now that i'm a mother. haha. I'm gonna regret posting this but i hope u'll at least get a good laugh. I feel like i'm 10 yrs old again.

Activity Time: T @ 7 weeks

Activity time is really important for babies and adults. It's when I really get to spend quality time with T and get to know his temperament as a little person. The PD taught us a couple of simple exercises that will help T develop physically and mentally.

T hates his tummy time... so i cheat him into doing it. I put him on my chest and slowly slowly lower my body until it's horizontal. haha. Tricky mommy...

T enjoys Mr Ducky who sings to the tune of "How much is the Doggy in the Window", courtesy of Aunt Gingerblossom. It's one of his favourite toys.

T responding to a rattle- it's supposed to develop his sense of hearing and the bright colours help his eyes focus on objects. Check out his huge feet!

Smiling at at Ahyi... His little tongue curls up. so cute!

Bleeeh...

Look Pa! I can hold a rattle! Of course it falls off almost instantly. But still, it's a giant step for T!

T is finally dozing off after a full day of fun activities.... zzz..."Mommy, pls let me take a catnap!"

One final picture of T and mommy before bedtime.

PS: Miss u daddy!

Snow ho ho...

Purposely went out so we could experience the snowfall...It's all melting now.




Cute family making snowmen.

November rain

I couldn't fall back to sleep after my 5am pump this morning cos it was freezing. I think Mountain man felt grateful that i snuggled up to him cos we hadn't changed into our winter comforter yet.

When i woke up, Mountain man greeted me with a big smile and said... "Guess what bb, it's snowing!" Everyone at home is in a good mood, including T who has been smiling all morning. That's what snow does to you, seeing snowflakes fall through the sky brings joy to anyone's day.

This is the view from our apartment. Can't wait to get out later! Will take more pictures.
