Jared finally has his new car seat! We brought him to Baby Hyperstore & Baby Kingdom at Kaki Bukit today. There ain't much ranges at Hyperstore and seems like they carry more on MaxiCosi's so we went to the latter instead. In the end, we bought Jared a Britax Safe & Sound car seat. The car seat has 5 positions and Jared can sit until when he turns 4years old. Though I find the price a little steep @ $399 but Daddy wants the best for Little Jared & comfy is very important so we go ahead with the purchase. It seems like Jared enjoys his new car seat a lot! We tried putting him in the car seat and he was jumping with joy & kept looking at the lady who was installing the seat for us. We placed him in his new seat on our journey back home. Ok baby, since you'r such a good boy.. Mummy is gonna get something for you to play in the car since you have a new seat now. Probably I will be getting some hanging mobile or things can move for you. Alright? Heheheh.. Took some pics for Jared before we left the house;    That's my handsome Jared. He's wearing the stripes polo-tee from Fox Baby & denim jeans from OldNavy. So cute, right? LOL.. Labels: Gift For Baby, Jared, Shopping Thursday, January 29, 2009 I am sick... down with flu + nose blocked + sore throat & I am losing my voice any time! Work was super busy today and the customers came in as early as 10am, Q-ing outside. We worked non-stop from 11am and only went for 30mins lunch break today! I stayed back for an hour to help them clear some bad logs before coming home. Poor hubby gotta wait for me for an hour extra before coming to fetch me. And I missed accompanying Jared for an hour too, for coming back late =( Gonna attend CS meeting tomorrow morning at 945am. Duh.. So tired. Heard from Mummy that Jared had been a good boy today! I am so glad.. he's our cutie pie, always! Labels: Work Wednesday, January 28, 2009 Hello people! 恭禧发财，万事如意 to all and may all be well for this moo moo year.. Too tired & lazy to blog much. CNY this year was rather quiet... I got a fever on the CNY eve and my temperature hit up to 37.5degree C. Though 37.5degree C ain't consider high to some of you but I was aching everywhere. I merely had half a piece of ba gua on the eve of CNY eve and this happen to me. Needless to say, I self-medicated lor. Had Panadol extra & doped the muscle relaxant pills. Felt much better on 初一 but still not in top form lah! As usual, visited my Grandma on the 1st day of CNY & went back to my in-law place. Jared cried the moment when we entered my in-law's place. It was a total dissapointment cause I thought he will behave well just like how he did at my Grandma's place. Anyway, its over. I am not so stressed now anymore. Heee =D~ Jared collected more than 20 ang baos for these few days but I'm too lazy to make it an effort and open every ang baos to calculate. Shall wait till the 十五吧！ Holly & Teresa brought their precious to our place today! I am so angry with Jared cause he was such a piggy & was very dao when kor kors came over for visiting. He did not smiled much, neither did he play nor show much excitement when seeing visitors. Not long after he had his feeding, he went back to sleep. Duh! And just now he woke up in the evening feeling all fresh & high that he kept shouting and jumping for joy! So paiseh to wake Xiao Nat up from his sleep when Jared wanted to have the place instead. This Jared ah, very naughty lor! Anyway, let the pictures do the talking..     This is Little Bosco dressed handsomely. SooooOOo cute, right?  Bosco and Mummy  The mummies & their babies Saturday, January 24, 2009 Busy like a bee~*~*~*~*~.... We went on a quick shopping spree to town today! First and for most, we dashed into GUCCI and Anyway, we will be going to Chinatown later for some sight-seeing and see if there's any good bargains or not. Time seems to be running out and so many things yet to complete. Gonna wake up early tmr morning and head down to Bedok temple to pay respect to Daddy, Grandpa & Grandma. *yawns*... It's Jared's first lunar new year & I hope he enjoys it! Labels: festive, Jared, Shopping Thursday, January 22, 2009 2 months ago, I submitted Jared's photo to participate in the Pampers Photo Contest on Mumcentre & he emerged as the winner for that particular week. Remember? Today, I received an email from Mumcentre saying that they gonna send over the prize. Hmmm...~wondering what prize is it? I tried surfing the website but seems like they don't state the prize at all. So mysterious sia.. LOL.. Anyway, we are supposed to received the new farm playmat today but to no avail.I'm so worried that the mail is lost now! According to the spree organiser, the parcel was mailed out on Tuesday & many others had already received their item. How come mine is not here yet? Oh no... Little Jared is anticipating to see the postman! Hopefully no lost mail ya. Nonetheless, I went shopping at Aussino again! Bought a jersey blanket for Jared & its so comfortable and soft. Its his favorite cartoon character - Pooh Bear with piglet. Heheheh... Will get it wash tonight so that Jared can use it during the weekends. He's good at pulling & grabbing things around him now. I bet he's not gonna let the Pooh Bear off this time..  The toy rental company people are coming tomorrow to send us the Jumperoo that I've rented for Jared. Apparently they wanted to come during the fourth day of CNY but I requested them to expedite cause I really wish Jared could have some time playing with the Jumperoo during the festive season. Luckily, the person in-charge was nice and prompt enough. They actually promised to send tomorrow between 3pm - 5pm! Hurray!! Jared has something new to play & explore again. I've read many good feedbacks about the Jumperoo rental. Some mummies have commented that the item is as good as brand new & its really worth renting. And so I decided to give it a try and rent for Jared instead.  In fact, its the Deluxe version Jumperoo instead of the latest edition Rainforest type. Whatever it is, as long as it can jump.. its good enough liao. LOL..  Ending this post with a pic of Jared looking so happy & excited!! Labels: Gift For Baby, Jared, Shopping, Toys Wednesday, January 21, 2009 People...~Please help to vote for Jared on Huggies Photo Contest... Kindly click here to vote please. Poor Mummy has no money to buy diapers so hoping to win this contest and get some supply of Huggies diapers for Jared. Hahahhaa... Many thanks in advance ya. You can vote as many times as you can!.... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* POST-NATAL HAIRLOSS Pre-natal as well as post-natal hair losses are the more common hair loss problems found in women. Not only do women have to go through their life’s natural routinal process of looking after the kids, they also have to pile on the responsibility when it comes to working in the corporate world as well as handle chores on the domestic front. When it comes to hair loss, it can be the biggest challenge for them yet! What is pre and post natal hair loss? Women are said to be at their most radiant when they’re expecting. A full head of beautiful hair, a face glowing with bliss and happiness…these women should have no worries in the world at all. So why do they have to put up with hair loss? Let’s take a look at this picture again. During gestation, women will be feeding on all sorts of antibiotics, causing the immune system and functions to go haywire, thus causing hair loss. After childbirth, because of the massive amount of blood lost as well as the major changes in the blood circulation and metabolic rate, the hormones will struggle to readjust. 3to 5 months after delivery, about 30% of hair may be lost. Similarly, these women will also experience hair loss, due to poor stamina and health after childbirth.
On a whole, hair lost will start to grow back after 5 months or so. But, if your hair continues to fall out after the 5-month period, and if you’re starting to see your scalp a lot more than you should, then this is something you shouldn’t ignore! This will make you look old and haggard and not the slightest bit like a new mum. Besides that, your hair loss might become a permanent problem…by then it’ll be too late to regret not taking prior action!
Article taken from Yun Nam Hair Care website. Labels: contest, Post-Natal  Mummy bought me a bumbo baby sitter the other day at Kiddy Palace. The blue one is nice but Mummy bought the green one instead cause green is good for the eyes.. I love it to bits & I enjoy sitting in my new bumbo seat.
Here's a pic we took together. Heheheh...  Labels: Gift For Baby, Post-Natal, Toys Sunday, January 18, 2009 Our little imp went to visit his Great-Grandma today! He's considered a good boy today though he did pout for a short while the moment we enter Grandma's house. After looking around for 10mins, he "accepted" the surroundings & starts to coo and chuckles when we play with him.    Taken these before leaving the house. Little imp was looking good & very cheerful. Isn't he? We stayed at Grandma house for a short while only. Hubby then drove us to Chinatown cause I wanted to buy the vegetarian paus for CNY. Bought a dozen of them & the aunty is happy to see me once again. LOL... Brought little imp to the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple. He's really a devoted baby I would say. We put both his hands together when praying to the 弥勒佛 and the moment we step into the hall of 六臂如意轮观音, Jared put his hands together again unassisted. He's soooOOoo cute!! I've never expect him to react this way & I thought he would cry when we bring in to a new place. I guess he probably knows that 观音娘娘 has been watching over him ever since his birth. Nevertheless, Jared had his 2nd dose of Pneumoccocal jab today at Dr Tan's clinic. He cried for a short while, much shorter than the 1st jab he took. My brave little boy, you've grown up so much.. Mummy is so proud of you though you always look so poor thing to be poked every month for injections but all these are for your own good, alright? As long as Mummy & Daddy could afford, we won't hestitate to give you all the very best we can. You must be a good baby & behave yourself ok! To date, Jared had administered 2 doses of Pneumoccocal jabs, 2 doses of 6-in-1 Hexa & completed 3 doses of Rotateq vaccines. Labels: Jared, Outings, Religion, Vaccines Saturday, January 17, 2009 Jared is getting very noisy & naughty lately. He loves to pull up his shirt and bite them, play with his blankets and handkerchiefs. At times, he will even play with my fingers when I am touching him. He'd filled us with lotsa fun and laughters. Even the Daddy also says he's getting very sian when going to work nowadays. I thought he'd always been very hardworking & so enthusiastic with his work? LOL~ Jared will be getting his toys & stuffs again! I've joined a bulk purchase on Singapore Motherhood & custom-made a taggies blanket for Jared. Apparently, I've considered for 3 days before I made the payment AND I'm glad I did because the supplier just stock in some nicer fabrics last evening. weeet~  This is the fabric I chose! Very cute, right? Mummies, if you wanna check out the bulk purchase spree, can click here. I think the spree will be closed next Tuesday! The waiting time is 4 weeks.. hee, actually I'm considering to buy the diaper tote bag too so that its one full set. =X The next toy I got for him is the muscial kick & play farm playmat.  Although it says the playmat is for 1yr old & above but I still buy it in the end! hehehe.. Hookay, I'm bringing Jared for his Peunomococcal jab (2nd dose) tomorrow morning. I hope he don't develope any fever and everything will goes well for him. CNY is drawing nearer & nearer! 3 years ago, I love CNY every year but ever since the demises of my Dad in 2006, I deem to dislike CNY now. I hate it when I know Daddy is no longer around to eat reunion dinner with us. I feel very upset cause we can only bring him his favorite food & CNY goodies to the temple where he's resting now. All we can see is his tablet & his urn. I hate it, seriously! At times, when I see kids having their Grandpa bringing them to the market or coffeeshop, I really feel very sad. How I wish my Dad is still around & he'll be able to see Jared, bringing him to market/coffeeshop for breakfast just liked what other kids so. Sigh~... :~~~( Labels: Baby Stuffs, Family, Gift For Baby, Shopping, Toys Tuesday, January 13, 2009 We brought Jared to the new Jurong Point this afternoon. Today's trip is the most successful & peaceful one we had so far. LOL.. He was looking everywhere curiously the moment we reached. Well, I think the air con plays a part too cause Jared loves cold cold all the time. We were so so so so glad that he didn't make a fuss. Phew~~!! All of us managed to buy something for the day & go for fittings without worrying that he'll cry cause he fell asleep not long after that & only woke up for his milk when the time was up. Bought him a new NUK milk bottle, a new pacifier, a romper set for CNY, replenished half a dozen of PIGEON wet wipes, an extra 摇篮布, half a dozen of wash cloths for him. He's such a cutie pie to us and we'r sure loving him to bits. Oh yah, yesterday I really went to IKEA lor. I woke up early in the morning and Hubby sent me to Jurong East MRT station before I starts my train journey to IKEA at Alexandra Road. Duh! The spinning mobile toy with fishes & horses is nowhere to be found. Hence, I bought another design which is not spinning as much as the fishes one. Sad! I don't wanna waste my trip going there so I tell myself I DEFINITELY must get something for Jared. 路途遥远 leh...  This is the design I managed to buy at IKEA in the end. Sigh..~ Jared don't seems to like it as much as the other one he saw at Dr Tan's clinic last night. Mummy's heart is broken into pieces... So sad. Anyway, here's some latest pics of Jared. Finally caught him smiling at the camera..    Labels: Baby Stuffs, Gift For Baby, Jared, Shopping Sunday, January 11, 2009 We brought Jared to the market today! As usual, he starts to wail the moment we enter the LRT cabin. Well, I would say that he's got frightened by the big crowds of aunties & uncles inside the LRT cause it was quite packed and humid inside the cabin. He must have thought that they were monsters thus he wailed the moment he sees something that he's not familiar with! However, we tried comforting him and very soon he quiet down. Managed to still shop for groceries, bought 4D and Q-ed for the roti pratas. Despite Mummy has been bringing him out lately to make him adapt to the new environment & faces in the neighbourhood, but he's still not getting used to it. So, we decided to give it a second try. So, we brought him to Green Ridge just now. Indeed he wails again the moment we reach the place. LOL... but he sort of "accepted" the environment & people when we brought him to Shop & Save (cause got air-con & its cold cold, so he likes lor~). Since the clinic was still open so registered for his Hexa 6-in-1 jab, as well as the Rotateq vaccines. Am glad to say that Jared has completed the 3 doses of Rotateq now, meaning he needs not take his Rotateq anymore. Yippee!! Will be bringing him for his 2nd dose Peunmoccocal next weekend cause I can't bring myself to let him have 2 injections in a day. Very poor thing one lor.. Jared was so so so excited just now when we were inside Dr Tan's room. As Dr Tan was doing the developement assessment check on him, he spotted the spinning mobile toy which was hung on the ceiling. He started shouting, coo-ing & chuckles with his legs kicking & rubbing one another. Even the clinic assistants also came in to look at Jared & commented he's soooOOo cute. LOL.. I think the other patients must have thought that Jared is enjoying himself very much even when he's having his injection. Anyway, of course Jared did cried for a mere 5 seconds when the syringe was pulled out. After a while, he started crying & looking around. At Jared's 4th month; he weighs 6.9kg & 67cm long.   This is the spinning mobile that excites Jared so much. Its from IKEA. Guess I gonna make a trip down to IKEA tomorrow and buy it for Jared liao, since he loves it so much. Labels: Gift For Baby, Vaccines Saturday, January 10, 2009 According to the calendar date, Jared is 4 months old today. He's grown so much and getting more & more alert nowadays. He has many new stunts now. Firstly, I realised he will lift up his legs and use his hands to touch his toes nowadays. Amazingly, he can do it without much effort. Secondly, I find him very noisy lately cause he like to shout & coo in his own language whenever he's excited. Though we don't understand what he's talking about but we are glad to know that he's feeling very happy. Thirdly, he has this chewing motion. Apparently I thought he grabbed something to chew in his mouth but actually its not. He's just trying to be funny. LOL.. So cute of him. Last but not least, he loves to rub his legs against one another. I always stop him from doing that cause there are times when I realised his feet actually felt very warm. I guess its probably due to friction when he rubbed them. My silly boy ya.. ~ Oh yah, and he knows how to "ngggg nggg" with our assistance already. Whenever I hear his poo poo sound, I will say "nnggggg ngggg".. and he will imitate me. Now that Jared has grown so much, I sort of missed those times when he was still a newborn cause he was so small. Hehehe.. As I was shopping around Takashimaya today, I heard a baby crying hysterically. As I walked near her (its a baby girl~!), she looks so small and I reckon she's not even full month yet. Her Daddy was carrying her and trying to soothe her, whereas an old lady (which I believe its the Graany) beside him was trying to help in comforting the crying baby. I could see how helpless they were & were busy looking for the Mummy but she was nowhere to be seen. The poor Daddy carried the baby around the whole of Level 3 in Takashimaya from the baby department to the tops department & back to the lingerie department. I hope the baby is alright though..nonetheless, she is so cute! Labels: 4th month, Growth Spurt Tuesday, January 6, 2009 Some back-dated pictures of Jared which I've sync-ed from Hubby's iphone.    Labels: Jared Its Jared's 4th lunar month today. Early in the morning, we gave Jared a drumstick for him to lick but he don't seems to like it at all cause he doesn't even wanna open his mouth. End up, the drumstick rice is my lunch lor. LOL.. But anyway we did pinched a little meat from the drumstick to put on his lip for his tongue to lick lar.. Luckily I bought the 烧鸡腿 cause it's my favorite! The 华夏胎毛笔 guy came at 2pm sharp just now. We'd wanted to make a hairbrush for Jared after he had his hair shaved.. To my surprise, Jared was very well-behaved through out the shaving session. Apparently I thought he will make a fuss or cry out loud when he sees a stranger but he did not. Instead he was looking curiously at the china man who did the shaving for him. My brave little boy, you've grown up a lot and Mummy is so proud of you. hehehe..~ We chose a hairbrush set for Jared with his name, date of birth engraved as well as 4 chinese wordings which says, "平安是福". The fickle-minded me is still thinking whether should I change to another template which says, "健康 快乐 平安". Hahahah I better make up my mind soonest otherwise it'll be too late. By the way, the hairbrush box is sold seperately one lor. We chose 1 that is made of rosewood without any dragons engraving to make it more simpler. Will be collecting the hairbrush set in about 6 weeks' time.. Yipppee! Total damage for the day: $188 At Jared's 4th month;
That's all I could think of now. Will update more if I'd missed out anything.   Before   Labels: Gift For Baby, Growth Spurt, Jared Friday, January 2, 2009 A little recap of my NYE and New Year day. Our family of 4, including my Mummy, dear baby, hubby & I was at home watching the TV on Channel 8, U and SCV for the countdown party. Despite its my 6th year with hubby but this is the 1st time we have each another's company on a NYE when the clock strikes at 12. Dinner was steamboat yesterday at MIL's place cause it was her birthday. Apparently we did not bring Jared back cause he was still sound asleep when we were leaving the house. End up, he woke up for his feed when we were about to finish our steamboat. Luckily I have a considerate & efficient Mummy cause she's the one keeping me in the loop with what Jared is doing. Hubby drove back home & Mummy was waiting for us at the void deck with Jared. She handed over Jared to me and we went back to MIL's place again but little did I expect, Jared turned rather cranky & started making a fuss. I reckon he'd began to recognise the environment & faces cause he frown the moment he felt something/somewhere is wrong. Sometimes, I really think that I can't handle Jared alone when he turns cranky. I felt like crying with him when I see him making a big fuss. Grrr.. wonder when will I ever gain more confident to bring him out sia. Actually, I'm thinking of getting a baby sling from MIM but ain't really sure if Jared likes it. Sigh.. I think Jared will be less cranky when he's inside a sling rather than being carried in our arms. Anyway, Jared has more & more patterns nowadays. He's getting smarter & smarter (I did mentioned before that all babies are smart) each day and always full of surprises for us. Will do a brief updates next week when he turns 4mths old after we shaved his hair. Hehehe.. Weekend is here again but poor me gotta be on duty for both saturday & sunday. Thursday, January 1, 2009 Happy New Year 2009 to everyone! Blog again when I have the time.. |
