smile


Baby Khye was at mum's place since last Fri morning cos we wanted to take time off from him & partly also becos i know my parents miss him. MIL almost cried when we told her about the plan on Thurs night. Told you, Baby Khye is hubby's "youngest bro"now.

Dad told us Baby Khye loves to smile now. Even slightest sound will make him giggle. One time, they took him for a stroll at supermarket. He gave gummy smile to a lady and I think the lady must have melted there and then. “Baby, how many times do I have to tell you, dun smile at strangers?”

sons exchange

Now i understand why DILs & MILs (especially newly weds or new mothers) will forever clash with each other. Not only they do things differently, they think differently as well.

Like for my case, i always want my baby to exercise his little hands and legs freely and dislike putting mittens & boots on him. Mil thinks otherwise as she's afraid that he will catch a cold. When he cries when he's upset with something or gets uncomfortable, i'll soothe him with pacifier, massage his tummy or carry him for a while until he stops, then i will put him down on his mattress again. If under mil's care, she will pat & carry him around the house for like 30mins or so and will only put him down when he falls asleep or when we ask her to. She gets very agitated whenever the baby cries and i pretty sure she does feel like crying together with him.

People must be thinking i'm a cold blooded mother when i dun attend to him immediately when he cries. If you analyze your baby’s crying, you will know what he wants from the sound of his cry. Crying for milk/water? Crying cos he pees/poos? Upset tummy? Or just crying out for attention. Perhaps mil sees me acting that way, therefore she tries to be there as much as possible for her grandson. And that's also why i feel that my son is slowly becoming her son. Do you believe in karma? I do now. I have her son, she has mine.

bathing time

Sometimes when i'm feeling extremely tired, i will pass the bathing task to hubby. Baby Khye is getting very "violent" nowadays and keeps wanting to show off his flying kick. So whenever we put him in the bath tub, he will be struggling and kicking all over the place and of cos he loves water too. I managed to snap a few pics of him, but some didn't turn out well, cos he moves too much and i was using a low end digicam. Papa was dressing him up. Pretty hard job too, he thinks people are playing with him when we hold his hands and legs. He is very ticklish too, just like his Papa dearest.




Finally...thanks, Pa=)




I think all babies grow very fast. During his stays in the hospital, he was only wearing S-size pampers which was proven too big for him. His legs did look like frog legs. And now just look at his Michelin thighs from above =)

babytalk

This was captured last Friday while we were taking our dinner. He does this most of the time and even wakes up in the middle fo the night looking for entertainment.
