During Che Che's 3rd Birthday.

We forgot to take Sean's basket and stroller to the restaurant because:

- We invited Sean's babysitter to the dinner as well. So, Sean went with her instead of me fetching him

- Both basket and stroller are in my car and on that night, we drove Daddy's car

- It was too late for us to return to collect.

In the end, we discovered we can use Che Che's car seat (soon will be Sean's) that is placed in Daddy's car.

With no support, Daddy came out with this by using whatever available from the restaurant:


Of course the boy didn't sleep the whole night, except a quick nap (like 15mins) in my arms. The rest of the time, we (almost everyone) took turn to carry him.

When we placed him on the car seat, lasted for like 20mins before this little cried!

Sean Turns 5mos

At 5 mos:

Vital Stats:
Height: 68cm
Weight: 9.5kg
Head Circumference: 44cm

Development:
- Feeding: Still on Mummy's milk exclusively. Drinks 6-7oz every 4hrs via bottle.

- He has developed much stable feeding time for the past 2 weeks. Last feeding is ~ 9-10pm and the next feeding would be 5-6am. So, I have considered this is a sleep through already! ( I hope I don't jinx this by saying so!!)

- He is overweight but being a breastfed baby, he has the 'license' to be overweight. *grin*

- He is able to roll from his back on to his stomach, just 5 days before he turned 5 mos.

- He has good head control now.

- He puts EVERYTHING in his mouth.

- He has shown interest in attempting to reach to his feet and play with his toe. If we pulled that for him, he would giggle.

- He can cried in an angry and sad voice already. We can tell whether he is whining and crying.

- He is able to put his weight on his forearms and lift his head and chest up when lying on his stomach.

- He can pick up his rattle occasionally.

- His best friend is his Kong Kong because he would laugh out loud the most when Kong Kong played with him. Trust me, he really laughed even before Kong Kong started to play with him.

- He drools a lot!

- He has developed dried skin almost all over his body. We now need to shower him with Oilatum Soap Bar, followed by applying Balneum Intensive Cream. Right after we did that for 3 days, his condition improved a lot. Although his skin is ok now, we were asked by PD to continue until he is a little bigger. Breastfeed will help to speed up in stabilizing his skin condition as he grows older.

- He has no problem sitting in his car seat every morning when I sent him to babysitter. However, he cried sadly every night during our journey back home. Don't know why.

On the 11th July 2009...

Finally, Sean turned over from his back to his tummy. 5 days before he turns 5-month-old.

Another milestone, which I am so happy to write it down because I was the first person that get to see this.

Sean's First Professional Shots

The photographer came to our house as early as 7am to set his gears up before the photo shots. Yup, that early because Sean cooperate the most, smile the most in the morning. I woke him up at 7.20am and the whole photographing session last for ~ 1hr.

By the time the photographer left, Sean knocked out for his short morning nap. :-)

Some of the shots that I like:
1) It was my idea on this! :-)



2) I like this cheeky smile



3)Mummy is all sweat. So have to blur out the left side.



4) The "Ah Song"(blur) look?

Father & Son's Moment

I did the same thing for Che Che too, check out Ern's blog.

I just simply love these 2 layout. PRICELESS!!

No Poo Poo

This is a note to mummy to record down on Sean's development.

For first time ever, Sean didn't poo yesterday. It's normal for breastfed exclusive baby. However, it never happened to his Che Che.

BUT....

It only happened for 1 day...today he poo again!!

Drumstick??

If you get to see Sean's "drumstick" thigh, I am sure you want to cubit them, just like I do!! LOL
