Something horrible to share with all parents

I just wanna share with all parents out there so that the next time you take your kids out, you better hold on to them tightly because you'll never know what's gonna happen next. Nowadays children can really react so fast that they can do things at a glimpse of an eye, especially those that they were not supposed to do. Looking at the one below really pains me. (Give it sometime to load)

It really hurts me to see the toddler got kicked into the air and land on his/her head. We would definitely all blame ourselves if this ever happens to any of our precious ones...... Better be safe because prevention is better than cure

By the way, where is his/her mummy and daddy??!!!!!!

Please don't flame me. I just took this off my e-mail that Melinda sent me to share it with you all.

Holding his own bottle

Last time Keith used to hold onto the bottle but wasn't able to support it. Nowadays he is able to hold and support it as well. This picture is taken by Elaine while Grandma was feeding him one morning.


P/S - I felt rather bad for not updating my blog as often because there are many happneing in the family and many which is not blog-able ones too. But anyway we have already sold out car for RM61.5K and the buyer already gave us RM1K for deposit. Luckily we opted to sell it on our own, if not sure rugi even more :) Special thanks to Jazzmint and Chanel for giving me the confidence to do it on my own :)

Keith is four-months old

Four months ago, we had witness Keith's birth and today he is a rather talkative bubbly baby (with all baby goo-ings)

• Lately he is more reluctant to lie down on the pillow/sofa. If any one of us disturb while he is resting on the pillow/sofa, he would want non-stop actions (that is to play with him)
• He also dislike to be swaddled. Anyway that is not so good for his motor development since he is beginning to explore.
• He wanted to be carried more often. (He seems to be especially excited when I carry him, I guess he knows that I would normally play with him)
• We tried to take away the pillow that grandma had put in the spring craddle. But he seems to be unable to adapt too well with that.
• He have already moved to the "M" size disposable diapers.
  

We do not have his bio-stats this month because the paed visit is skipped this month.

Might as well post more pictures of Keith


He likes to give us this "shock" expression


I wanted to post this up (although it is blurred) to show how naughty Keith was, in giving us his raspberry. Just kidding, actually he is doing that because he is teething :)

Keith's Sleeping Habit

Keith seems to have developed a rather familiar sleeping habit. He likes to sleep on his sides and tries to have his eyes covered too :P Also we know that most of you would concerned about SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) We assure you that we allow him to do so when we are around watching him. If not, we would put him to sleep on the spring cradle.

I mentioned familiar because Elaine and I also have this sleeping habit too. When she was small, Elaine's mum had made her a very small pillow to cover her head (eyes/ears) while she sleeps. And it had became a must for her to use that pillow, if not she is not able to sleep

Keith is having his third tooth

We were told by grandma that Keith is about to have his 2nd & 3rd tooth as well. According to grandma, most of us in the family have our four bottom teeth first. At least now he cries less and I think he is ok with his first tooth :D

The four tooth we mentioned are the central incisor and the lateral incisor (Picture copied from Michelle's post in myBabyBay Forum. Without this picture I'd be really lost, I guess I have left all the biology I have learnt in the class)

Whenever we carry Keith, he is giving us a feeling that he is much more able to hold himself together (not so lembik la) and his head requires less support. Whenever I carry him I would try to make him stand and is also beginning to stand (supported) more steadily too but sometimes he is also lazy and would just lean forward to sit down :P Our problem is Keith wanted someone to keep talking to him....... and he is very talkative.

This is the pictures I took this morning :D (He is now one week short to his 4th month)

Elaine complained that since Keith have his hair shaved, he have lost his cuteness, but I proved her wrong with these pictures :P

I wanted to snap Nicole's picture too but she was being so naughty that grandma had to take her to the room :(

Happy Father's Day

Just wanna leave a very short post

Although I am in the restaurant business but I got so busy recently that I totally forgotten that it was Father's Day today!!!! Well, this is also my first father's day, being a first time father :P

It was so nice that I received a SMS from Chanel very early this morning at 9.45am. (As a matter of fact that this SMS of hers is my first father's day greeting) I would have totally forgotten of this special day because to me it is just any other day as Sunday is a working day for me anyway.

I'd like to wish all fathers

"Happy Father's Day"

And I wish that we fathers would continue on supporting our family, especially our beloved wives. Let us all fight less la...... They used to say that "Men is from Mars, Women is from Venus" but to me we are all on Earth and we humans are very adaptable :P

Keith's Second Tooth

According to Grandma, Keith's second tooth can be felt and the first tooth have already gained millimeters in height.

Keith is still as playful as usual but what makes grandma and Elaine jealous is Keith seems to be more talkative and happier too when I am carrying him :)

The bad news is Nicole and the maid would be going back to BM very soon. Yes, her parents are arranging their divorce and probably Nicole would be going to her father, unless my sister wanted custody. We know that my sis would have to go thru a lot if she is to gain custody of Nicole. The main headache is what if her father doesn't bank in his money for Nicole? Sigh! My sis, Elaine and I are still trying to work out something which we can afford with our limited time and money. But it is Grandma that we are more concerned about because she is really attached to Nicole, in fact I think grandma have put in all her care and love. We will hope that everything will work out fine

A rather event-full day

Keith is trying to observe his hands and after a little while he will gobble them to his mouth :P

Yesterday was a rather event-full day. Early in the morning we have air-conditioner service people over at our apartment because the air-cond in grandma's room was leaking, the water outlet was clogged. Then after a while I heard grandma and Nicole voices outside of our apartment, I went out and saw them entering our neighbour's apartment (there is only 2 units on our floor) so Elaine and I went to join the gang la. We needed to see what measurement they have used for their additional room.

After paying them a visit, Elaine's mum came over and grandma, Nicole and I went to the unit above us to make some repair to their balcony water outlet. (It was giving us nightmare bacause there is a crack and water is seeping thru and will drip to our unit.

Later Elaine's sister, May came over to our place with her husband and her son, Yong Jin. Of course Nicole was very happy because she have someone to play with.

Both of them playing with Blocks


Now they are taking their turns for Elaine to give them some "LinYong" 蓮蓉 (from the "LinYong Pau" 蓮蓉包 May(Elaine's sis) brought for us


While snapping their pictures I saw Keith playing with his own hands. So I recorded it as well


We did go out for our dinner and then for some shopping. Keith was already wanting to be carried all the time and didn't want to be direct fed. At about8plus We decided to return home. Halfway thru the journey back Keith started crying non-stop. Then I tried to stop at a petrol station to let Elaine see what is wrong, as soon as she is out of the car, Keith stopped crying. As soon as Elaine wanted to re-enter the car, he started crying non-stop again.

I guess yesterday we have too many things happened altogether and Keith was being curious and could not sleep too well, with so many things happening around him so he slept rather well last night and also that he is teething too. He got us all really worried because he cried until he choked himself with his own saliva.

Luckily this morning he was still the same playful him. :D In fact he became much more talkative (with his baby babble talk) Later this evening grandma told me he became temperate again. Got advise from Jazzmint to get a teething toy to ease his pain by chewing a cool toy. I got Dentinox Teething Gel to see if it helps in calming him

Keith's First Tooth is sprouting (part II)

I'm updating my earlier post with a picture which I took with Elaine's help. We both agreed that we have to take this picture.

Keith's First Tooth is sprouting

This morning after playing with Keith for a while, I went into my room to take a short nap as Elaine was taking her shower. My mum knocked on our door and told us excitedly that she have got something to show us. As we went into the room she tried to make Keith smile and laugh by talking to him. When he laughed, she pointed to his lower gum where there is a small white line. It was indeed his first tooth stub and for the record Keith is 3months 2weeks 4days old today :D

Now we all know why he cry out whenever he feels uneasy. If you ask if it's too early, grandma said that I got mine about the same age as Keith and Nicole have hers when she was 4 months. When Elaine told her mum of the news, she also thought that it was not possible, she thought perhaps we looked wrongly :P

I tried to snap a picture of it but it was too blur because Keith was twisting and turning around during the close-up shot.
As usual, Nicole is sure to be there imitating whatever we did, perhaps to gain our attention :)


I felt really sorry for Nicole but I am including her picture in this post to show you all. Grandma just gave her a haircut and it was crooked and it really made her look so ......... (sigh! kesian her la) Grandma some more told me that she did that intentionally :shakehead: If I can make the time, maybe I'll take her to the hair saloon this Tuesday.
