My Little Trick



Hey! I can cross my fingers!! See me in ACTION...

I CAN STAND!!


Wah! Steady lah...


Am I in a PRISON?!

My Teething Experience

It all started one fine Tuesday afternoon, when after waking up from my nap, I refused to drink milk. I also had not drank water from the bottle for the whole day. Mummy tried ways & means to make me drink i.e. changing to Stage 2 spout teat, straight from the cup, but it all doesn't work.

Next, she tried apply teething gel on my swollen gums (I HATE the smell), give me chilled teether & chilled hankie (which I threw all away), feed my chilled fruit puree & baby yoghurt. But I'm still cranky.

Mummy was very worried & cooked porridge for me but after taking 2 spoonful, I rejected them. Next, mummy tried feeding me my favourite Heinz jar food. Luckily, I managed to finish all.

However, in the middle of the night at 1am, I woke up crying. I'm HUNGRY! Cos I reject milk, mummy has no choice but to feed me banana cereal with milk added in. After a few spoonfuls, I pushed away the bowl which flew into the air. Poor mummy! She has to wipe away the mess on the walls, floors, fan, door & even the electrical socket in the wee hours! Mummy said I'm a naughty gal & put me into bed.

Then at 3am, I woke up crying again. This time daddy has to wake & pacify me to back to sleep.

On the 2nd day, mummy became desperate due to lack of sleep & my crankiness. So upon the advice of forum aunties, she bought Baby Paracetamol to relieve my teething pain. Seems to work though, cos I sleep from 11pm till 10am the next morning. Then I even managed to finish 2 bottles of milk during the next day.

July Babies Gathering at MTDT's Lovenest in Punggol

Mummy brought me to Zavier kor-kor's house in Punggol today for a gathering with all my babies friends. We reached there at about 2.30pm cos we were lost on the way there...Why? Cos blur mummy wrote down the wrong street address lah! Somemore she still complained to Auntie MTDT tat she gave the wrong address to her. LOL!

I was so happy meeting all my friends again! My friends were all grabbing & snatching toys from one another, but I choose to sit quietly & play with the toy hoop.

Then while mummy was busy yakking with the other aunties, I fell asleep in her arms...

By about 6pm, everyone has left except for us & Ian di-di with his mummy. Auntie MTDT then brought out a pooh bear toy which walks on sound activation. I was so curious & kept following the bear go around the hse...Ha..ha...

What A DAY!!

Daddy & mummy brought me to Takashimaya Baby Fair today. Daddy bought me a new stroller fan cos I had bitten off my old fan in Ikea Tampines yesterday & Mummy bought me a new stroller toy cos mummy see Ian kor-kor, Emerson kor-kor & Garrick di-di all have stroller toys except me, with only a stroller fan to entertain myself. Then after biting off the fan blade yesterday, I can only stare outside & suck my own fingers...

See my chewed 2 blade fan & new green fan...

Then we went to have dinner at a Japanese restaurant wif Uncle Jason, Auntie Justine & Elijah kor-kor. Daddy finished his dinner first, so mummy asked him to feed me teething biscuits. But I bite off a large chunk & almost choke...My eyes & nose started to turn red, & I was gagging for air...Mummy & daddy quickly pat on my back but I was still choking for air!! Then Auntie Justine quickly carried me over & wanted to pat my chest to dislodge the food. Luckily during the transfer, I recovered. Sigh...everyone was so frightened! Even Elijah kor-kor also stopped to look. When daddy carried me over, I puke & all the tofu porridge tat I've taken earlier on daddy's arm & my clothing.




Sigh! WAT A DAY!

New Dish - Broccoli & Tofu Porridge

Mummy made me a new dish today...It's broccoli with tofu porridge. Mummy didn't make a lot cos she's not sure if I like it. So she only made 1/2 a scoope of porridge & 2 tofu cubes.
Hmm...I like it...I finish 1 serving & mummy quickly scoop another serving for me...I finished all..Mummy & Daddy is so happy!

Trip to Ikea Tampines

Mummy brought me to Ikea Tampines today with Auntie Dsii & Auntie JP. Mummy got the car today so she drove us all to gai-gai. We originally wanted to visit Giant Tampines, but cos Mummy & Aunties chatted for very long & it was too late, so we didn't get a chance to visit.

See me playing with the rocking reindeer...

Shopping at Plaza Singapura

Today, mummy brought me to Plaza Singapura. We are supposed to meet Auntie PM, Auntie JP & Auntie Dsii at 3.30pm, however we were early. So mummy went shopping first. Within half an hour, mummy already has 4 shopping bags by her side.

Here's a pix of me before we leave the house...

Then together with all the aunties, kor-kors & di-di, we went to Burger King for a meal & chit chat. Time really flies when we're having a good time & soon it's time for dinner...after window shopping, we all ajoined to Cafe Cartel for dinner...

Why is Ian & Emerson kor-kor busy touching my legs & hands? Boo Hoo!!

A pix together with all the babies...
Mummy & me both had a good time & we really look forward to the next outing soon.

Wee...wee...wee...

I did something amazing today. I whistle!! Mummy was so shocked! It all happened when mummy was changing my diaper in the morning & I suddenly close my mouth to form an 'O' shape & blow..."wee..wee". Mummy thought she heard wrongly & whistle back. I whistle again in response.

Mummy was so amazed tat she went around telling her friends in the forum. Mummy said I'm a clever gal cos not everyone can whistle, even mummy also can't do it well...

"Wee...wee...wee..."

Special Dessert - Baby Yoplait

Mummy bought me a special dessert today. Hmm....What's tat? It's called Baby Yoplait. Daddy fed me the banana flavoured yoghurt, hoping tat I couldn't finish up (so he can dig into it).

Unfortunately, it's so yummy tat I finished up 1 whole tub in 5mins!! Sorry daddy...think u better get yourself another tub...

Mummy was delighted & told daddy she wish I'll show as much enthusiasm in my porridge & cereals as I had shown towards the yoghurt...

OH MUMMY! Yoghurt is so much sweeter & nicer than porridge & cereals! Of course I prefer them!!

Here's some pixs of me pigging out my Yoplait. Daddy said I looked like I have a moustache & beard...hee..hee...

Kindermusik Trial

Daddy & mummy brought me to Kindermusik trial class at Tanglin Mall today...Didn't sleep early last night (in fact we only reached home at 1.30am), so I only woke up at 11am tis morning. Daddy had to rush through my feeding & bathing so we could be on time for the 12noon trial class. Unfortunately, we were still 10mins late.
Mummy & daddy didn't know where Kindermusik was. Luckily they saw Auntie Peachsorbet & Kirsten Mei-mei walking in front...Then daddy said just follow them, definitely won't be wrong..hee..hee...

The trial class was full of songs & dances (mummy was dancing though...& I just relax in her arms) & the teacher really sing well! I was given ball to sit on, bells to ring & drums to beat on. Waoh!! There's even a parachut flying in the air while I climb all over under it...Hee..hee...I can see lotsa my friends enjoyed the session, but I was too tired to care....I almost doze off in class & started sucking my fingers again.

Later on, mummy & the other aunties met at McDonalds for chit chat & makan....while daddy was banished into a corner wif Xavier Kor-kor's father (sayang hor)...I suddenly felt energetic & started blabbering non-stop...Mummy took out my favourite teething biscuits & I started munching away...

But I was simply too tired & fell asleep while on our way out of Tanglin Mall carpark.

**Note from Mummy**
Dear Kaylyn,
Sorry for coming home so late last night while visiting friends...Mummy & daddy had lotsa things to catch up. Luckily, you managed to sleep for a few hours in our friend's hse. Mummy promised not to make you too tired before the next trial, ok? Hopefully, you'll enjoy it better!!

Mummy is still considering to enrol you for Kindermusik class or not...cos you didn't enjoy yourself today. Actually, you seemed like a 'stone' through-out the class...haa..haa...anyway, will see how the tumbletots trial goes before deciding.

Teething...*bitezzzzz....*

Hmm...drooling means teething..means bibs...& teether...

Porridge Time

Mummy has been trying to feed me eat porridge for weeks & weeks, but I always rejects. Mummy tried ways & means to encourage me to eat porridge. She even puts carrots, sweet potatoes & brocollis into the porridge, with pork rib bones as soup stock cooking in the slow cooker for hours, sometimes overnight. But all to no avail. Mummy complained tat I'm too lazy to chew & swallow my food, prefering to stick to my milk only.

However, mummy is worried tat I'm not getting enough nutrients cos I also rejects cereals. My main source of food is still milk plus some veg & fruit purees. No wonder I'm in the 25th percentile for my weight...sigh...Mummy also gave up on me!

No wonder Mummy is so happy today when I finished half a bowl of pumpkin & cauliflower porridge (which she decided to cook last min)...YUM..YUM...tastes so sweet!

A Visit back to Mummy's Ex-Co

Mummy brought me to her ex-company today to visit her ex-colleagues while on the way to shopping in town. Managed to take some pixs with the familiar faces & voices there...hmm..I feel so comfy, seems like I've known them for ages...wonder why??
Was hungry suddenly & mummy had to make milk on the spot...but I can't concentrate with all the eyes staring at me, people grabbing my feet & hands..URGH!!! Luckily I had something to grab hold of to soothe my anxiety...hmm...feels soft & blacky...wat's tat? Oh, Auntie Vikky's sleeve...hee..hee...

Gai..Gai...

Mummy brought me to shopping at OG private sale today b'cos Auntie Lizhen has OG membership card. Wah! There's really lotsa people in the departmental store...mostly aunties though... Mummy bought lotsa stuff for me, 1 swimming costume, 1 sunglasses & 1 portable food jar..hope daddy won't notice the big credit card bill..hee..hee...



Here's me wif my sunglasses...



Later, we went for a drink at Delifrance, Centerpoint. Mummy feed me my favourite Baby Bites biscuits & I was SO HAPPY! Yum...yum...

Outing wif Aunties PM, Dsii & JP

Today mummy brought me to Compasspoint for an outing with Auntie PM, Dsii & JP. Baby Emerson, Ian & Garrick are also there to play with me...
While mummy was having toilet break, me & Ian di-di secretly hold hands under the table while chatting wif each other...however, the paparazzi aunties discovered us & wanted to snap a photo of the 'undertable-action'. Luckily, we managed to spring apart at that instant..hee..hee...
I had fun today with so many aunties, di-di & kor-kor around. Hope there'll be more of such outings in future!

My 1st Holiday

Daddy & mummy brought me onboard Superstar Virgo for a 3days 2 nights cruise trip to Malacca/Port Klang. Daddy also invited Ye Ye & Nai Nai to join in the holiday.
The immigration queue to the cruise ship was so long tat it was already 10pm by the time we reached our cabin. However, I was too excited to sleep & kept rolling all over the bed & squeaking non-stop! Daddy & mummy couldn't stand me & brought me for supper.
During the night performance of the Shaolin Temple monks, I actually slept thru! Mummy & daddy was so amazed tat I could fall asleep in such a noisy environment.
Mummy & daddy also took me to the pool for a swim. I was afraid & didn't wanna submerge my body into the water. Then mummy's hand slipped & I took a gulp of pool water..YUCKS!

My 1st Competition


Mummy entered my photo into the Baby Idol Contest & was shortlisted for the semi-finals round of the Enchanting Eyes catergory...Here's a clip of what went on during that day.
Mummy says I'm a good gal cos I was already very hungry when we were still queueing up for our turn to appear on stage. However, I didn't fuss or cry at all! Instead, I keep sucking my fingers & nibbling at the queue number sticker stuck on my arm.
Although eventually I didn't even get into the final round, mummy is already proud of my achievements!
Also wanna thank all the aunties tat came all the way to Suntec to support me & help me take photos.
