Jared is really one lucky boy! He has a wondeful Grandma that cooks really yummilicious food for him, a Mum (which is me~) who loves to buy things for him and letting him try new stuffs every now & then, a Dad who has no temper & giving in to him for whatever he wants.

Till date, Jared has tried a wide range of fruits & veggie purees, Yoplait Yogurt, toothiepegs, Vanilla Custard, barley cereals, rice cereals etc...

Of all the food we'd introduced to him, his all-time favorite will be;

  1. Vanilla Custard with or without apple purees
  2. Barley Cereals with FM
  3. Apricot Purees
  4. Sweet Potato Purees
  5. Vegetables Porridge by Grandma with ingredients liked; Pumpkin, broccoli, carrots, potatoes, spinach etc...

The worst facial expression he ever showed me is when we gave him;

  1. Baby Yoplait Yogurt
  2. Spinach Purees

Our little imp is starting to have seperation anxiety now. He cries when we walks away, leaving him to play on his own. Mum has been complaining that he's so sticky nowadays that she can't even leave for a minute to wash and sterilised the bottles. His 2 toothies has shown now and he loves biting every little thing that he grasp. The other day, he dragged his pram which was left stationary at a corner in the living area. He was all quiet as he dragged the pram along in his walker.. And we were quite shocked to see that he actually had dragged it from the foyer to the kitchen. Hahahhaah..

This afternoon, he grabbed Mummy's newly bought HP (less than 5hours) and threw it on the floor! *oppss...* Well, who would bear scolding an ignorant baby like him? He's such a cutie pie.. I wanna hug him to sleep every night. Will be staying home for today & tomorrow to keep him accompanied (clearing my maternity leaves), Thursday is a working day for me and I will be home again from 1st - 5th May!.... This sounds very shiok to most of you but it will be my turn to suffer from seperation anxiety when I returned to work on the 6th!

We brought Jared to Joshua's place today for Evabelle's baby shower. Little Princess is so cute and has grown a lot (photos will be up soon~). Met up a few of my colleagues & customers there too.. We left after a shoft while as Jared nap time was near.

Took a few pics of Jared wearing his OldNavy top at Joshua's void deck. Our Mr. Mischievious is so happy today and he's so concerned with Evabelle when she cries. He seems to know that Evabelle is his meimei and wanted to give her a hug when she cries as he leaned forward.

Will be attending another baby shower this Friday at my Big Aunt's place. Most likely we'll be bringing Jared along this time since most of my paternal relatives hadn't seen Jared before except for Big Aunt & 2nd Aunt. And on Saturday, we'll be dining outside for advanced Mothers' Day dinner together with Grandma and my cousins...

Little Jared is full of programs for this week!

I bought Jared a couple of tops from OldNavy when he was still a newborn. Most of them were meant for 3-6months, 6-12mths...

There's a very nice long sleeve top that we'd always wanted to let him wear for gai-gai but due to hot weather lately, we hadn't got the chance to do so. Today, Mum brought the top out of Jared's wardrobe and tried it on him. Apparently, its for 3-6months old. Jared fit in snugly but he's gonna outgrown it very soon. What a waste of money again!?! LOL..

Anyway, I took pictures of Jared wearing that OldNavy top. At least he wore it for that few minutes & I'm contented. Self-console uh...? hehehe...

Presenting to you guys, my handsome Jared with his Daddy;

And 1 more....

I realised that he's getting more and more alike to his cousin now. Hopefully, he will be as smart as them when he gets older. Hahhaha..

Though he can be really naughty and fussy at times especially during this teething stage when but he never fails to bright up my morning everyday cause he's the first person I see when I wake up.

Yesterday, we brought him to the NTUC fairprice and I bought a box of Organic teething rusks for him. He's so smart and he knows how to hold his own toothiepegs. He chewed on the toothiepegs for almost 30mins and he even knows how to switch from his right hand to the left hand when the rusk is almost finishing. I was quite shocked to see that he's so smart, really. Apparently I thought he will continue holding the toothiepeg till he's tired cause he'd finished chewing the top part and he can never chew the bottom part with his hand holding to it. Who knows, he switches to another hand and he hold it by the bottom instead. Hahahaha..

The next interesting incident about him happened in the evening. As he loves to explore every little corner of the house, he is so curious with the dark room (our master bedroom with all lights off). He walks in his walker and approached Mummy, seems to be telling her to follow him to the "dark room". Mummy walks behind him with her fingers held by Jared as he led the way. Suddenly he stopped... and Mummy didn't know what he wants so she walked back to the sofa. This time round, Jared walked towards Mummy again in his walker. He used both of his hands and held on to Mummy's hands, somehow asking her to follow him again. So Mummy followed suit... Then, they entered the master bedroom. Jared held Mummy's fingers and stopped in front of the washroom. Mummy knew that he wanna see what's inside the washroom so she turned on the lights.. Guess what Jared did? He jumped in joy!! *faint*... Small little things can make Jared a happy baby. SO cute of him!!

Jared's 2nd tooth bud is forcing its way out. Hurray! Our little imp has 2 toothies now.

For the past 2 nights, he'd been waking up in the middle of the night crying. Guess his little toothies are giving him such reactions so he's really irritated. Soothed his gums using Dentinox teething gel and of course it helped a little. He fell asleep after applying a small amount on his gums but occasionally he's still very pek cek.

Notice his little toothie? Hehehehe..~


Brought him for the swimming lesson again last Monday. We went to the outlet at PS. To our surprise, there wasn't any baby there on that day when we went. Jared took his own sweet time soaking in water & looking at the uncles & aunties outside the glass door. He's so mischievious & curious! The ladies at Hua Xia kept looking at Jared's eyes cause his eyelashes are curling up to his eyelid. Hahahah.. Thanks for their compliments when they said Jared has very nice eyelashes. Our little imp has very bad temper at times too! I am having phobia of him screaming when he's super irritated. I better keep my fingers crossed that he won't behave like other naughty boys who rolls on the floor inside the shopping mall when he gets older. Heheheh..

Hadn't got much time to blog lately. Too lazy to log on to internet and my Can Can on FB Pet Society is surrounded by flies now. Hahaha..

Jared is officially 7months old now;


  • He's drinking 160ml FM now.
  • On semi solid food twice a day. Once at 12noon for his porridge and his fruit puree in the late afternoon.
  • Sleeps thru the night till the next morning for his feed.
  • Humpty Dumty when sitting up. But he's improving bits by bits everyday. Now he's able to sit without our hands support for 30seconds.
  • Little tooth bud has grow.
  • Has a new language now. He goes "ddaaa ddaaa daadaadaa.."
  • Loves watching Mickey Clubhouse on Ch 34 every morning @930am.
  • Attempting to crawl forward when he's on tummy.
  • Open and close his palms when we says "Bye Bye".

Another good news is, we have finally book the last chalet unit at Chevrons. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get the premium unit which has a TV in the bedrm and bathtub but I'm already happy enough to get a unit to celebrate Jared's 1st birthday. Heheheh...

Though its like 5mths away from now but I've done some planning already. High chance we'll be having a BBQ and will be ordering the BBQ food from an online wholesale site. I've heard good comments about the BBQ wholesale online and I reckon its worth trying out. Most importantly, its hassle-free for us cause they will prepare everything and marinade the food for us as well! ...

Its not gonna be something very elaborate nor grand cause Jared is still too young to understand & remember. The purpose of organising the chalet is to bring the family members together and have some fun time relaxing. Moreover, I hadn't BBQ-ed for donkey years. LOL..

Jared's new COMBI pram arrived at our doorstep today! He's in love with his new pram and enjoy sitting in it.

Some hiccups on the chalet booking now. Hopefully everything can be resolved and we'll be able to secure a unit by this weekend cause Jackie ain't able to book out of camp and go down personally to make the payment for me within this 3 days. The system is quite sucky, isn't it? Most chalet/resorts booking & payment are available online through VISA or Mastercard but the one at Chevrons doesn't allow us to do so.

Its a day to remember. Was bathing Jared just now and realised that he is teething! Little tooth bud can be seen on the bottom row (middle right).

I did a search on teething process at my favorite BabyCenter website. Extracted the article below to share;

The vast majority of babies sprout their first teeth when they're between 4 and 7 months of age. An early developer may get his first white cap as early as 3 months, while a late bloomer may have to wait until he's a year old or more. (In rare cases, a baby's first tooth is already visible at birth.) Whenever the first tooth makes its appearance, celebrate the milestone by taking pictures and noting the date in your child's baby book.

Teeth actually start developing while your baby's in the womb, when tooth buds form in the gums. Teeth break through one at a time over a period of months, and often — but not always — in this order:

First the bottom two middle teeth, then the top two middle ones, then the ones along the sides and back. They may not all come in straight, but don't worry — they usually straighten out over time.The last teeth to appear (the second molars, found in the very back of the mouth on the top and bottom) have usually begun coming into place by your baby's second birthday. By age 3, your child should have a full set of 20 baby teeth, which shouldn't fall out until his permanent teeth are ready to start coming in, around age 6.

Experts disagree about whether teething actually causes symptoms — like fussiness, diarrhea, and fever — or whether these common symptoms are not related to teething at all and just coincidentally appear at the same time as emerging teeth. Regardless, many parents maintain that their teething babies do experience discomfort (though some babies get through the process with no problems at all). The symptoms most likely to trouble a teether include:

Drooling (which can lead to a facial rash)*
• Gum swelling and sensitivity
• Irritability or fussiness
Biting behavior*
• Refusing food
Sleep problems*

For many babies and parents, the arrival of the first tooth isn't much fun, and it can be a long, drawn-out process. The early symptoms -- which can include heavy drooling and a fair amount of pain -- often precede the actual event by a month or two. You could be up nights trying to console a child waiting for a tooth to break through. To ease his suffering, your baby may start biting, but not out of anger or hostility. Giving him something to bite on or rubbing his gums gently with your finger can soothe the ache. Gums can also become swollen when children cut teeth, which may make your child's cheeks appear slightly fuller. Although some parents claim their babies become feverish or get diarrhoea when a tooth is about to come through, most experts agree teething doesn't cause illness. More likely your child is coming down with a cold, mild flu, or tummy troubles, so do get him checked out by your doctor.

For the fortunate ones, teething can be a fairly painless mouth makeover. One week your babe is sporting a toothless grin, and the next a jagged white edge appears on the gum surface. Celebrate the first tooth by taking lots of pictures, and note its arrival date in your child's baby book. Teeth sprout one after another, first the bottom front ones, then the top two middle ones, then the ones along the sides and back. Tooth development is hereditary, so if you got your teeth early, chances are your child will, too.

*denotes symptoms on Jared

We really hope that Jared will be overcome the teething process. The teether we bought for him comes in handy now. Mummies who are interested in printing out the teething chart, click here

I was having lunch at Taka yesterday and happened to passby the Cold Storage. Found there's this Organic Vanilla Custard thingie by Heinz on the shelf and since I'm a dead hard fans for organic stuffs so I did not hesitate much. Tried it on Jared today and he loves it. Was crying for more when I walked to the kitchen and wash the bowl. LOL..

Anyway, I mixed 30ml of formula milk & 3 teaspoon of the Vanilla Custard,with cooked apples (smashed). The taste is very nice and not too sweet. Jared smells of vanilla flavour after I fed him. Hehehehe...

Its Qing Ming today. Hubby and I woke up early to go to 三清宫 for the praying. The temple was flooded with people and the car park was full. We were lucky to secure a table for our offerings and everything went on well. The whole thingy took us about an hour and my eyes were tearing cause its very smoky!! Grr...

Headed to Rail Mall to replenish Jared's groceries. Imagine 2 pears at the price of $6.50. I doubt not every parent would do that but we did! We wanted the best for our little one so all food he's taking are certified organic. Our plan is to let him take organic food for as long as possible, hopefully till he turns one.

In the afternoon, we brought Jared to visit meimei. Little Evabelle has grown so much and she's getting prettier and cuter now. The sore area on her head during the vaccum delivery has healed and she's so sweettttt~ *_^

Jared was cranky at first when we reached Joshua's place cause his feeding time was near. He resumed back to his cheeky behaviour after being fed. Naughty him.. and we went to IMM after that. He was sooooo well-behaved thru out and was still giggling loud when he sees his favorite Mickey Mouse! We finally bought a nice photo album to slot in his photos which we'd took for the past 6mths+.

Notice his mouth? He kept doing this for these 2 days by : his lower lips and smiled at us! Naughty little him....

Oh yah, and we've decided to book the chalet at Chevrons for Jared's 1st birthday. Its more convenient for us and also most of our friends/colleagues & relatives are residing at west side. Its gonna be a very long journey for us if we were to book the Downtown East chalet which is at Pasir Ris :)

JARED♥MUMMY

" He's our first and precious little one,
living in his perfect world "





Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too
Cause I’m dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I’ll be holding you tight
And there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you ever see me and I
Wonder if you know I’m there
If you looked in my eyes would you see what’s inside Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close but so far ..
All I have are dreams of you
So I wait for the day
To take the courage to say how much I love you
Yes I do
I’ll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I’ll be holding you tight
And there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
