My little active girl

Kaitlyn is more active if i compare her current month's progress with Kelvin when he's at the same month. I remember when Kelvin is 6 months old, even though he doesn't like to sit in the car seat, but he will not turn himself left right up down front back in the car seat, he will only make some fuss when i put him in the car seat.

For Kaitlyn, u see what she does when she gets bored in the car.....

Do you think this is the way a girl should behave herself? LOL! ** slapped forehead**

D Monte Family Day

Today is D Monte’s family day and it’s Kelvin second time attending the family day, whereas it’s Kaitlyn’s first Family day. We wake up as usual, after getting all of ourselves ready, we heard to Youth Park. Along the way, Kelvin keep asking where Youth Park is, are we there yet.

Finally, we reached Youth Park around 9:30am. It’s so crowded but luckily we able to find a place near to the place where the family day event being held. Kaitlyn fall asleep on the way to Youth Park and I’m so worry that I may wake her up when I transfer her from my arm to the stroller, however, my little sweetie pie enjoy her sleep so well, phew!

We were greeted by Ms Goh and Uncle James. Kelvin met few of his classmates at the event and he started to play with them. He even brings Hannah for a short walk. *wink*wink* For this year, there isn’t any fish pond for the kids to do fishing, a bit disappointed. Actually it’s fun seeing the elder kids fishing in the pond, maybe I should remind the principle to have the fish pond back as part of the activities during the family day. Or maybe, they can plan a game between the kid and parents.

Even though the weather is quite good, It rain early in the morning, and luckily the rain stop before the event start, however.the weather still a bit humid. But then, the 2 kids of mine doesn’t seems get annoyed by the wether. The elder one enjoy running around with friends and the youngest one enjoy being carried by people all around the place. We spend around 1hr at the event and decided to leave the place.

Me and my 2 KCs

Has been long time i didn't take photo together with the 2 kids, most of the time i am the one holding camera busy snapping both of their pics. Today, finally, i get to sit down and take pic with both of them. Before Kaitlyn is born, whenever people see Kelvin they will say that Kelvin looks like me, and when Kaitlyn is born, people will say Kaitlyn looks like Kelvin. So if i use the math formula ,

Kelvin looks like me;
Kaitlyn looks like Kelvin;
So as conclusion, Kaitlyn looks like me too;
and if we use programming language, it will be endless loop;
so at the end, 3 of us looks alike!

What do you think?

My 2 lovely KC ~ Kelvin and Kaitlyn CHIANG

When i get to know i'm pregnant, i start to ask around friends for tips on sibling rivalry. I involve Kelvin in my pregnancy journey,let him share the joy with me and make sure he doesn't feel left out. I even get Kelvin involve when i want to decide on the name for the baby. I read out few names to him and ask him to tell me which one he likes the most, but at the end, i decide the name MYSELF, LOL!

I worry that,

Kelvin will reject Kaitlyn and refuse to love Kaitlyn;

Kelvin will feel that mummy doesn't love him anymore, mummy loves mei mei more;

Kelvin will feel left out and start to feel jealous.....;

bla bla bla ...

but all my worries are just waste of time.

Kelvin loves Kaitlyn very very much. In fact, he requested us to let him carry Kaitlyn when Kaitlyn was around 2 months old. And today, Kaitlyn is sitting beside her brother, Kelvin, taking photos. Kelvin likes to play with Kaitlyn and he loves to involve Kaitlyn into all the activities. I feel so happy seeing Kelvin loves his sister. I used to call Kaitlyn sweetie pie and Kelvin also follow me to call Kaitlyn that way. And he even name himself as sweetie pie #1 and Kaitlyn is sweetie pie #2. LOL!

Well done, Kelvin boy, mummy so proud of you!

And Kaitlyn girl, you don't bully yuor brother, must love your brother as much as he loves you!

Kaitlyn, Happy 6 months old

Time flies, my little girl is 6 months old now. I still remember the day she's born, i hold her tight in my arm with the feel, "yes, this is my litthe girl, the little girl that stay in my stomach for 9 mths and 2 weeks, and i am holding her in my arm now!" At the same time, i start to think, geez, how am i going to cope with 2 kids, when Kaitlyn will turn 6 mths and go for solid? And today, Kaitlyn is 6 months now, and to me, she is like just born yesterday.

11) Super manja, refuse to sleep on her own bed since 5 mths old. Now she is sleeping with me and sometimes will put her leg on my leg or touching me with her hand to make sure i am sleeping beside her at night

I am a lazy mom

Yesterday middle of the night, i know Kaitlyn is about time to wake up for her midnight feeding, as i can feel that she's rolling left and right on the bed,however, i am too tired and lazy to wake up. So i continue to sleep.

A while later, i feel that someone is touched my hand and when i open my eyes, my little girl roll to me and she's touching me with her little hand trying to wake me up. And she look at me when i open her eyes. She seems like telling me, "mummy, i am hungry, can you pls feed me for a while". With guilty feel, i quickly wake up and feed her, and she only latch on for less than 5 mins and doze off. i guess she misses my smell only!

The little bread boy

You told us that you are hungry AFTER DINNER! And you ask for bread with margarine. In fact, you want to eat the margarine more than the bread. At the same time, you refuse to let any of us prepare the bread for you, you insist to us "Kelvin do it!". So we let you mess up with the bread and margarine, however, we need to keep an eye on you to make sure you will spread the margarine on the bread and not directly into your mouth.You enjoy the bread that prepared by yourself and yummie! So next time you can prepare bread for mummy to bring to work.

Playing with towel

It's a Sunday afternoon while everyone is busy sleeping, both of us wake up from sleep and decided to play some game. Mummy wrap you up with towel and you enjoy playing with me. So what's next? Of course is taking your pic! When mummy busy taking your photos, you busy turn here and there for me to capture your different pose.

You and your brother both has different style in front of camera. For you, you will keep posing and let mummy can't stop taking your pics, whereas your brother, mummy need to hold the camera chasing after him.

My xth solid

Seeing meimei having her first solid, you also request mummy to feed you the same way i did for mei mei. So, not to upset you, i let you sit in your fisher price booster seat while mei mei sitting in the bumboo seat. Also, i let you wear bib to make the whole thing exactly same as mei mei. You are such a naughty yet lovely kid !

Kaitlyn has her rice cereal with breastmilk while you are having banana. And you asked for the same food that mei mei is taking, so i gave you a small feed of the rice cereal with breastmilk, however, as soon as you tasted it, you throw out all the food that you had eaten earlier. I guess the smell of the breastmilk make you feel giddy. At the end, instead of cleaning mei mei, we need to clean you up. Luckily the throwing out doesn't seems to bother you at all, you ask for other food after that. Phew..!

My First Solid

Everything has it's first time....So it's our first time with....

For the first time....i let my little darling taste on other food besides breastmilk!

It's Heinz rice cereal mix with breastmilk. Kaitlyn seems quite like it as she doesn't reject when i put the first feed into her mouth. I still remember the time i fed Kelvin with his first solid. Both of us sweat a lot! But this time with Kaitlyn, we sweat a bit only. Reason is...i am feeding Kaitlyn in the living room with the air cond on!! Whereas for Kelvin time, i am feeding him at the dining table with air cond! LOL!

This time, the experience is really different. Maybe i have more experience handling baby's first solid? The moment i put the spoon with rice cereal into Kaitlyn's mouth, she swallow the rice cereal. Cool ! She has been showing sign of interest on food since 4 months old and his ped told me in fact i can start feeding her with solind by 4th month, but we decided to delay her solid til she is almost 6 months old. And i can't wait any further as i am seeing Kaitlyn has strong sign of "mummy i am ready for solid!". I borrowed the bumboo seat from Evan's mummy and we are all ready to go with the challenge!

Dear baby,
After you wake up from your afternoon nap, mummy decided to give you a try on rice cereal. I dress you light as afraid you may sweat during the feeding. And in fact, before the feeding, you start to sweat a bit. Maybe you can't wait to try on the new food, so you keep kicking in the bumboo seat.

The moment mummy put the first feed into your mouth, you swallow the rice cereal, what a good start! So mummy keep feeding you and everyone was so excited seeing you taking your first solid!You even take the spoon from mummy and put it into your mouth. I guess you can't wait for mummy's feeding speed, and you want to speeed up the feeding. LOL!

I am so happy seeing you enjoy the rice cereal, we will try it again tomorrow!
