For The Love of...

The BUILDING BLOCKS!!!

This is the far most 'worth' investment that I made on the toys! LOL

Not only his Che Che loves it, my lil boy also fell in love with it! When I need to get things done, I will throw out the building blocks and let them play.

His Che Che will start to build something while Sean will start to throw. After 5 mins of throwing, he will start to "attach' his che che by grabbing whatever the che che is doing..

We Are Truly Siblings

Both Che Che and Di Di did the same thing, same playpen, same room when they were 8+ months. :-)

1) This is Che Che, Ern


2) This is Di Di, Sean


Did they look alike??!!

First Pearly White

This is a note for mummy on Sean's development.

My lil Prince had this first pearly white sprouted out. Yay!! About the same timing as his che che!

Happy 9-Months-Old

Vital Stats:
Height: 73
Weight:10.8kg
Head Circumference: :49cm

Diet:
- Milk: 6oz every 3-4 hours interval on full EBM OR 4oz EBM + 2oz formula
- Solid: Porridge (Lunch) & Cereal/Puree (dinner)
- Snack: fruit(apple, papaya and banana)& baby biscuit
- Seeing great improvement on him in drinking water!

Development:
- We started formula few weeks back since my supply had dropped tremendously. 1st feeding, he vomited all of the formula out after 45 mins. It was too much for his tummy to cope. So, his nanny suggested to add onto his EBM to transition him over. I agreed as I know it's not easy to just feed formula since Sean is already 8+ months old and able differentiate EBM and formula! The result - he accepted it!! (phew!) So now, we just need to continuously add more formula to become full formula in 1 feeding. Once he is able to reach that day, means I can 'simpan bukit' (Sau Shan in Cantonese) to be a moo moo cow!!! haha

- Little boy started to cruise few steps when we placed his onto his playpen (aka his bed also). Not stable but he is MOVING!!

- He is a light sleeper. Even the sound of opening the door lightly, it's enough to wake him up if no one sleep beside him. He is just like his che che! Need to have someone sleeping with him in order to sleep longer

- He is able to recognize family members and turn his back to stranger when they are trying to carry him!

- He can crawl very fast now even it's not crawling on four!

- He can't be left alone. The moment we turn away from his face, he started to whine and eventually CRY! Sigh!

- He loves to watch cartoon and his favourite is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. When the show played the 'hot dog dance', he smiled! Yes, only this show!

- He started to show temper to us at this age. When we take away his toy, he will scream and cry!

Holding Milk Bottle

{ Back-dated Post }

Last week as I was doing a housekeeping on my computer hard disc folder, I just realized there were several post that I forgot to post! *slap head* Sign of aging, seriously!!! I realized my memory is deteriorate after giving birth to 2 child. Guess they have 'taken' my 'memory space'!!

Anyway, Sean started to hold his milk bottle like 7+ months. He is able to hold the bottle almost 90% of the entire milk time, except towards the end of the feeding. We just need to help him to lift up the bottle and he will just empty it :-)

Milestones - One After Another

2 days ago, I blogged about Sean was able to sit up by himself from the crawling position. 2 days after, he surprised me with another key milestone - cruise

Yup, at 8 month 2 weeks and 1 day old, this lil man of mine started to make his first step (cruise to be exact). It all started when I placed him on the playpen as I need to get something out from the closet. I placed him in the middle of the pen and when I came back to take a look like 30seconds later, he is already at the other edge of the pen.

Then I placed him back to the middle again as I want to witness this with my own eyes. So, I took one of his toys and put it at the edge of the pen to attract him. Slowly, he made a very slow move, reached out his hand to grab the other edge of the pen, then his leg.

I was so happy because I get to see another of his great growth milestone.

Sit Up

Today marks another important milestone for Sean - he is able to sit up without any help.

I let him crawl on the floor and suddently, this little fella stopped, pushed himself up as if like he is crawling on four, then he lifted his bum bum down. The next thing I see is he is sitting up steadily already!

I was so happy because I am the first person that get to see him achieved another key milestone in his first year! Yay!!
