Baby Talk (again)

I am so fascinated by all the baby talk that HuiRou engages in now. She talks with her whole body -- eyes moving, nose wrinkling, head moving and even her legs move up and down. She likes her conversations two-way i.e. if we chit chat with her, she talks longer else she will coo only for awhile then drift off to never-neverland.

Baby Talk

Here is the video that I promised to upload while visiting our friends. Ignore my loud voice in the video as I didn't know Hubs was recording!!!

Things-To-Bring in the Morning

Every morning when I get into the car, it seems like I am moving HuiRou's entire room.

This is the list of things that I bring into the car:
1. Cooler Box, with bottles and pump
2. HuiRou's basket, containing her clothes, milk and whatever auntie may need
3. My work bag, containing my documents and diary for work
4. My handbag, containing keys, phone wallet and other odds and ends that collect in there

Then I also have to remember to bring her blanket for in-car use...

The funny thing is, sometimes "extras" end up in the car as well. For instance, I once load her "going-out" bag into the car complete with extra diapers, clothes and baby wipes.

All this confusion really get me going in the morning. I am now always the most alert at work in now. The way I see it...... it is God's way of preventing alzheimer's for me :)

My Superpowers

You know they say mothers have superpowers. They can cook and keep an eye on the kids while chatting away on the phone.

Oops! I cannot do that yet. My superpower? is to make milk! What??? Not everybody can make milk you know.

I really want to breastfeed as long as I can. And today will be a challenging day for me. It is the 1st day of work for me. I will have to pump at work. Luckily, today is still an easy day because the office is rather empty. I think if I can get past pumping, I will be able to br3astfeed as long as I want to.

Daycare Post #2

Yesterday I picked HuiRou up from daycare at around 4.30pm. It seems like she was finally able to nap at the sitter's. When I asked the sitter she told me that HuiRou now no longer cry after her bath. But the way she said it made me suspicious... Hmm ... Hopefully, she is just reassuring me and not lying to me outright.

This morning, when I drop her off, I also brought along the new changing mat. My baby, hopefully would not have to sleep on the cold hard floor anymore. Sigh ....

Today I will try for a full day of leaving Huirou in the sitter's care.
