Crazy for shoes

Baby loves shoes.


One of her recently activities at home while i am busy hanging clothes in front of the house is to try on each and every pair of shoes that she can get her hands to.

She will takes hubby's sports shoes, put it on herself and walk a few steps or go around my car and then changes another pair and walk around again.

Clever baby will even put it back in places.

She can also find the same pair of shoes from a pile of shoes at grandma's shoe cabinet.

And she loves big sister's Chinese wooden sandals.

Milk Transition

Baby had tried a few milk/soy powder.

She was first under Similac when she was few months old. Later she was under Isomil till about 12 months old due to watery stool. When she reaches 14 months old, i tried maintaining her Isomil intake twice and one intake of Snow at night. Everything turns out fine hence i decided to give baby full intake of Snow. After a week or two, baby's stool become watery again and she is put back to Isomil and Snow.

Recently, i tried to introduce her to Sustagen Junior (Vanilla). I gave her Sustagen alternately with Snow. After a week consuming, so far everything looks fine.

Hope that baby can be transitted to full Sustagen intake soon.

Cravings for Chocolates

Baby started to craves for chocolate ever since grandma gave her a slice of the chocolate Hari Raya cookies.

She will want to have at least 2 to 3 slice of the chocolate cookies whenever she is at grandma's house.

Besides that, she loves Kit Kat too. She can even pronounced Kit Kat.

Her cravings doesn't ends here. She also prefers chocolate Gardenia twiggies instead of the vanilla flavored ones.

Just hope that she will be able to drink more water after each chocolate 'feast'. She is always low in water consumption.

A day at Singapore Zoo

17 September 2010

We had a short trip to the Singapore Zoo during our 2 days 1 night trip to Singapore.

It wasn't a very pleasent day for a Zoo visit as it is raining cats and dogs when we finally found our way to the Zoo.

We bought ourselves raincoats so that we can still go around animal spotting under the rain.

Baby doesn't like the idea of going under the rain coat. I had a hard time persuading her to do so.

We had a very wet time going around the Zoo in such rainy weather.  Wearing a rain coat myself while carrying baby around is not an easy job.

Luckily the rain stops around 1:30pm and we managed to get a few decent photos of baby (without the rain coat) with the animals, join in one of the many shows for the day and also see animals walopping up their meals just after the feeding time.

Baby learns a lot after the visit to the Zoo. She can now recognised Elephant, Zebra, Giraffee, Monkey, Rabbit and many more!

4th Hair Cut

14 September 2010

Brought baby to her 4th hair cut.

She can now sits still on her own on the high chair and let Aunty Barber do her wonders to her hair.

Baby's hair looks fuller and tidier after the cut and she was rewarded with a big piece of cake which she finished up on the way home.

I- City Shah Alam

11 September 2010

It's the start of the long Hari Raya break.

We paid a visit to the famous I-City of Shah Alam.

The place was crowded. We didn't expect so many people to be there!

Baby was very excited seeing so many beautiful lights. She went 'WWWAAAAHHHH' all the way througout the park and she sounds so cute!

She will still goes 'WWWAAAHHHH' when i show her the pictures that we took at I-City.

Building Blocks

Hubby bought a big box of building blocks for baby.

He always prefer building blocks and lego and wanted baby to sit still and play instead of running around like a mad cow.

The set of building blocks is made of wood. It comes in rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, pyramids and cylinders in color and original wood.

Baby loves the blocks. She loves to pour is all out and scatter it all over the place. To make tidying up easier, i will usually put her and the blocks inside the big cardboard tray so that all the blocks will remains inside.

Both me and hubby had been showing baby how to stack the blocks. All this while, she prefers destroying our stacked blocks instead of stacking it. She loves the sound of the falling blocks.

Few days ago, while i check on baby after being a bit busy at the kitchen, i was surprised to see a tall and beautifully stacked blocks. Baby finally did it all by herself and she chooses nothing but cylinder. Good job.

Sleeping Time

Baby is having longer sleep time lately.

She can sleep from 11pm to 8:30am to 9am in the morning.

She had also grown out from her usual twice nap time of 45 minutes to 1 hours per day to one nap time of average 2 and a half to 3 hours per day.

It's really a heartache for me to wake her up at 7:30am during my working days. She will usually make a fuss and thank god she continue to sleep after i transfer her from her bed to the living room sofa and then to her car seat. Sometimes, she will even sleep again after reaching the baby sitter.

I am a bit worried about her being so tired. She only started to be like that after we moved to our new home. However, she continues to be very active and eats well after she is wide awake. Just hope that it's just another transition and not something to do with the 'feng shui' of the house.

Sick

28 - 29 August 2010

Baby was down with fever 1 week after the Hepathitis A injection.

This is the first time she refused to take her medicine. She had to be hold tightly in order for me to feed her.

Baby became very clingy and cry a lot. She even refused to drink her milk. Luckily babysitter had her own way in feeding her and managed to make her drink her two serving while baby sited.

I am lucky to find a good baby sitter and family members who loves and care for baby like part of their family members.
