Bunny in the Dragon Year

Chinese New Year is special this year because I get to spend it with my baby boy. And this is our first nice family photo :)
It goes without saying that the joy far outweighs the tiredness of sleepless nights. He brings so many smiles after a busy day, a tired week. Love you Jaeden boy, from Mommy.

The Cheaper Alternative

I'm a mommy who doesn't believe in getting expensive toys for kiddo. I think kiddies tire of toys faster than you can say "elephant" (just a random word). Another mummy gave me this bright idea of a windmill. It's really great for distracting your infant baby (3 months onwards) and it's cheap. Moving objects keep baby's attention. Try it!

The Darling of Expressions

My darling of multiple cute expressions

"I want my milk milk!"

Day 1 of Solids

Day 1 of trying out rice cereal with Jae.

The sensation of a spoon on his tongue was funny to Jae. Mommy kept asking him to swallow. Jae made a few weird expressions, and stick out his tongue each time. Attempt number one failed. Try again tomorrow!

Babies Are No Pushovers

These days, lil Jaeden knows who he can bully and who he can't mess with.

A typical scenario at the food court where mommy and papa have to put him in a stroller, together with ah ma.

J: Amuses himself with looking at his surrounding. Gets bored and whine.

J: Mommy passes a toy. Fiddle with it briefly, gets bored and whine louder.

J: Gives a restless expression, and whine dramatically, coupled with frowning face and pitiful eyes.

Ah Ma: Attempts to unclip J from the stroller, but was stopped by papa.  

J continues whining, arching his body impatiently.

Ah Ma: Baby wants to sleep, let me pat him.

P: No, he won't sleep when he's outside. He wants to be carried. Let him get used to sitting in the stroller.

Ah Ma: Exasperated look.
J serves a double portion of his whining/crying/looks pitiful act.

Ah Ma: 2nd attempt to free J, this time stopped by mommy and J throws a fuss.

Papa relented and allowed ah ma to carry J. J emerges triumphant, and all sounds were muted almost immediately.

Much later, when mommy and papa have parted ways from ah ma, lil J quietly sits in his stroller entertaining himself with his fingers. He sure knows who's the bosses and that mommy and papa won't fall for this act so easily.
