Putting up the Food fight
Naughty mon-mon has now become a Fussy eater. Sometimes he doesnt want to eat his porridge or cereal and just wanna eat up all the fruits.
Or sometimes, he will fuss halfway during a meal and demand a milk feed.
Other times, he gets distracted by the dogs hypnotising his food and he takes forever to finish a meal, playing and banging the table.
And I thought feeding was fun... Hmm..

More out & about.
What a super duper BUSY few weeks before X'mas and New Year.
It's lotsa shopping, shopping, and MORE shopping, friends' weddings, work & family :)
Woke up extra early at 9am on a Sunday (by Daddy's standards anyway) and went grocery shopping.
Baby A was still in his PJs because he just woke up. After grocery-shopping, Daddy & Mummy went for Big Breakfast at MacDonald's while Baby A had his cereal and fruits.
After that, it was the whole afternoon at Takashimaya to do some more Xmas shopping.
Then, we headed to Woodlands to GongGong & PoPo's house!
Aunty Lipeng with Baby A. Both of them share the same birthday, how cool is that!

Out & about
Daddy A, Baby A and Mummy went out to soak up some mood for this festive season. Too bad it was raining and very cold hence we didnt stay out for long!
Went to Dr Simon for Baby A's 6th month growth assessment and had his height, weight and head circumference taken.
I witnessed my Baby sitting up on his own, making his own decisions not to drink plain water by pursing his lips and pushing my hand away...And it suddenly dawned on me: My baby has grown up so much!
I miss Baby A's neonatal days so much, I miss breastfeeding him (I BFed him till he was 5mths old), I miss him being a Baby-baby. *sobs*

From the kitchen
Tried 2 new recipes this week, apart from the usual cereal.
Lentil porridge:
Wash the lentils and rice grains, and grind them up after drying. Can be stored in airtight container for subsequent use.
Lentils are rich in calcium, magnesium and potassium.
Plain rice porridge with Ikan Billis powder:
To make the ikan billis powder, Aunt LY (credit goes to my fav aunt :D) washed and sundried the ikan billis, then she roasted them on a non-stick pan over low heat until they are crisp.
Then, she pounded them until they are a fine powder.
Ikan Billis are high in calcium & protein.

Huiwen's wedding 29 Nov 2009
Charm, you wanna see my vainpot photos right? HEHE this is for you so you dont vomit hor..
My Day dress for "Jie mei", courtesy of my dearest Charm: an Ivory colored chiffon dress.
My Night dress
With the lovely bride Huiwen
With catwoman Angeline
Angeline & BF Shaun .. Everytime I see her I ask her to demonstrate how to do her Beehive hair SIA style.
After that, Crazy Carol arrived and started her nonsense about requesting 1982 Lafite redwine from the waitress and all her other madness so no more photos already HAHAHA
Gotta wait for Huiwen to update!
P.S. Over dinner just now, Andy suggested that Charmaine & Carol should mix together because both of them are equally crazy, and both bfs also like to play MJ. I think it's very dangerous for the general public if they are together though!

Hari Raya Haji Friday
When we brought Baby A to Baby Hypermart to buy his new Maclaren stroller today, we found out they are having a Weekend sale until 12mn for these 2 days.
And we got a good deal for the new stroller, with a free stroller fan thrown in :)
Daddy A and Baby A love the Maclaren.
Daddy is very happy with his new Sports Car of strollers and I'm equally glad that Andy & I now have a "His" and "Hers" stroller :P
In a nutshell, (Im getting really lazy to type long posts these days), we did these today:
- Bought slow cooker for cooking Baby A's porridge
- Brought Baby A to Baby Hypermart
- Went to my folks' and had dinner with my family
- Tucked Baby A to bed and went out with Hubby to wash the car
- Drove to Jln Kayu for Selegie soya milk to reward ourselves for the hardwork and sweat
On Thursday morning, he called me at work and asked: "Honey you didnt prepare Kaikai's food today, so what should I feed him?"
Me: "Oh I forgot. Can you give him the Parsnip with Sweet potatoes? And choose any fruit to go along"
Andy: "Parsnip.... Ok... Can I give him Pears & strawberries?"
Me: "Ok sure. Thanks Hon!"
Andy is the New Age Dad in every way :)

Storm in a Teacup
Trying to grab the camera
making funny faces is his forte ..
This is the Cheeky Monmon who brings much laughter into our lives.
No matter how tiring my day has been, seeing these faces melts away all unhappiness instantly.
He has so much love to go around, every single day I say a silent prayer and thank God for blessing us with a happy Bubs.
I cant take a decent photo of him nowadays because he is always wriggling.
Isn't he a handful!
Nearer and nearer
My toes are tingling in anticipation of the long weekend which will be in 2 days' time!
Last day of the work week tomorrow and I will devote all my undivided attention to:
- Hubby
- Baby Adam
- Waxing partner Charmaine
- Huiwen's wedding!
Er ok lah, not undivided attention already, but I am extremely excited and happy! HEHE
P.S. Still pondering what to get for Hubby and Baby Adam for Xmas.
Every weekend also buying things for Baby Adam, as if every weekend is Xmas.. . SO what will the real Xmas presents be??? I also dont know what I want for Xmas.. *scratches head*
