(05-09-06) 9 Months Old

I can't believe Jeremy is now 9 months old. It seems like time spend with him passes faster than time spent with Jamie when she was an infant. Oh gosh! I'm going to miss his babyhood soon :( This is his usual pastime... happily digging into the box of mini boardbooks, looks front & back of each books before throwing it as far as he can! What a mess!!

Bye Bye...

4 days after Jamie's toilet trained... she finally pass motion not into the diaper but potty!!! **hippie hurray!!** This really calls for a celebration!! And she will have her wish granted....4 Super Stars & moon !!

Bigger Challenge

Now that Jamie can pass urine into the potty, she is now being challenged to pass motion into the potty as well. I said to her................ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Me : Jamie, do you want these bright musical stars to be on the wall next to your bed? *********************************************************** Jamie : Yes! *********************************************************** Me : But you have to poo poo into the potty first, ok? *********************************************************** Jamie : Yes *********************************************************** Me : So where are you going to poo poo ? *********************************************************** Jamie : ...in the potty! *********************************************************** Me : **leaping with joy** ** The above wallables can be found here!

Report from Home : Our Guys Are Down

Jeremy suddenly had running nose in the wee hours (suspecting he got it from CQ who is sick 2days ago) and the next thing I knew was, he's ill!! Without delay, I rushed him to the paed's clinic at Mount Alvernia. His appetite and milk intake has obviously taken a dip. Heartache to see him so unwell and not his usual self... haiz just hope that the virus will not pass on to any of us at home. [Updated on 2 Sept, 4pm : Jamie is now confirmed having running nose since this morning! And that's 3 now ;-( ] *1st time sick @ 9mois

(31-08-06) Let's Celebrate!!

Today probably is one of my greatest satisfaction so far.... achievement in helping Jamie to be potty trained. YES! She finally allow herself to pass urine in the potty the entire afternoon till bedtime, 3 times!! How I did it? Well, I simply encouraged and with lotsa of lotsa of patience and understanding. Of course also with the help of this little gadget which captivated her so much! :D

Peter Potty

A friend introduced this portable boys' potty to me few days ago which she has already placed an order with Amazon. I'm rather amazed by this little gadget and told her that she can consider passing this to me 2years later when Jeremy is capable of using it.

Mathematics

Did a simple patterns concept with Jamie this afternoon after chatting with a friend who did it with her 3yr old son. I'm pleasantly surprised that she's able to grasp the logic faster than I expected which I thought she needs at least few days more before I can see results. Well done!

(21-08-06) I'm Too Sexy

Gee...mama said she wanted to snap some photos of my sexy body and asked me to pose. Cheers!!

(24-08-06) Jamie's 1st Dental Visit

After months of asking around, I've finally brought her to this dental clinic located at Suntec City. Thought this will be an easy job for her since we have been reading books about dental visits. But she simply refused to sit on the chair though the KidsCentral channel was switched on with the TV stucked from the ceiling! Finally she was willing to lie down....but it was on me then I lied down on the chair. The review : good set of teeth and no decay or whatsoever... but it confirmed that our girl's lower jaw somewhat is growing faster that her upper jaw. Dentist will review her next year.

(15-08-06) Life Cycle

Taught Jamie this....

(20-08-06) Hey See My Tooth!!

After months of drooling... we finally see the little tooth emerging out !! Yea and Jeremy is 2mths ahead of his Jie-Jie when Jamie had her first tooth cut after 10mths of age.

Art & Craft with Mama

Jamie chose an Art & Craft children reference book herself at the library on Monday. So I decided that we shall make full use of the book with her playdough. And here it is!!

First Taste of Fish

The porridge definitely taste SWEET! Yummy!! It's organic brown rice + steamed threadfin :D

07-08-06 (Books Books Books)

After enquiring from a fren, I finally managed to locate the newly built NLB!! So, zoomed.... and both Jamie & Jeremy have their first National Library card ! So we will be visiting the library preferably once a week.

06-08-06 (My 1st Bicycle)

Here's the present we bought for Jamie.

I Am 8 Months Now

Time waits no men! Jeremy now already a 8 months old active, cheeky, naughty and mummy's boy baby!!

(28-07-06) I Want to Swim

Was packing my stocks and found this swimming trunk that fits Jeremy so well! So this will be kept for him :D

25-07-06 ( BIG FOOT)

I brought Jamie to The Science Center again this round to catch the Dinosaurs exhibition. Not sure if she's able to appreciate these long extinct creatures but I'm rather doubtful of the origin of these bones.

Coming to 8th mois

I'm pleasantly amazed that I am still breastfeeding Jeremy with ease. Unlike Jamie whom I gave her breastmilk till around 7.5mths, Jeremy has more of it and I hope I can do it till at least when he hits 1year old. We all know the benefits of breastfeeding but the most satisfying moments I experience so far is the bond and affection that we both share. I have enjoy every moment I have with him.....

Happy Birthday, Jamie

It's Jamie 3rd bday today and she seemed to be more playful & happier. I wondered if she understands the meaning of "birthday" ? Anyway, this year we had it simple for her, celebrated at home with CQ's parents, siblings & Jamie's cousins. It was relaxed, less busy and stressful.
