Our Bundle of Joy, JARED LIM..

Been sick for a week already and seen the doctor for 3times. Completed 3 types of flu pills given to me but I ain't getting any better. The feeling is horrible cause my head is so heavy, my nose is blocked and my throat is itchy. I can't get near to Jared and I have to wear a mask. The weather is already hot enough and after putting on the mask, I feel even warmer. Duh!...

Hadn't been taking much photos of Jared lately but I promise I will do so for the next few days and also update his growth spurt when I am on leave.

The GSS (Great Singapore Sales) has started and Orchard is sooOoo crowded. Bought Jared a new toy from Playskool. Its a push-along walker and can be easily convert to a step n' ride. Its a very good bundle offer cause the package still comes with 3 other toys from Playskool as well and a set of Pigeon weaning bowl with fork & spoon. On top of that, the purchase also entitles to an additional 10% discount with Takashimaya card. Hee..~

Jared is of course happy with his new toys though he don't really know how to step and ride yet.

I am also in the midst of designing Jared's birthday party invites now. Still can't decide whether I should give him a Barney or Mickey theme cause these two cartoon characters are his top favorites!

Jared is now into Barney ! Hahahaha..

I have never had a good impression of Barney the last time when Kylie (niece-in-law) loves it to bits. Now that I have Jared, I realised that Jared loves Barney as much as Kylie. LOL.. Right now I am starting to like Barney now cause this big-sized purplish dinosaur can make my boy jumps in joy.

Bought him a VCD of Barney last week. He loves the "I Love You" and "If You're Happy and You Know It" song especially. Every now and then I will log on to Barney website and there's a Dance-along jukebox in there that plays all the Barney's Top 20 Countdown. Jared will of course jumps in joy and gets all excited when he see the purplish dinosaur jumping & dancing in front him.

And he has his favorite commercial ads too. Its the Ribena commercial. I think he simply loves the colour purple to max cause the main character in the Ribena commercial ads is also purple colour. Regardless of anything that he's doing, he will definitely stop and focus all his attention on the ads tilll it ends.

A video to show.. super cute! He himself laughs out loudly too when I playback the video on my laptop. He knows he's the one inside. LOL...

We brought Jared for groceries shopping at IMM Giant today. He set his eyes on a small blue cup at Daiso and we thought of letting him "play play" only but who knows, he doesn't wanna let go of the cup so I had to pay for it. Luckily, the cup is from Daiso and everything is going for $2 only otherwise I will be a broke Mummy whenever he refused to let go of something. Nuaghty little Jared.. :D

Now that we had terminated the Starhub CableTV, Jared won't be able to watch any Mickey Mouse Clubhouse every morning at 930am so I brought him to Laser Flair just now and bought him a DVD instead. There's a cleareance sale going on so not too bad. $6.95 for a Mickey Mouse disc and its the last piece some more!

When we first reached the Giant @ IMM,

He tried to remove his booties and looking around...

Still touching his booties..

A shot with Mummy!!

Just a pic to show.......

Took this with Jared last night. Obviously I cropped a part of myself away cause my hair was in a mess. LOL.. Find this pic of Jared very nice and handsome! Never had a pic of him with this expression & smile before :)

I reckon its normal for every parent to find their child cute and handsome. I hope I ain't exaggerating too much and you guys won't find me too annoying. Pls agree with me that my boy is handsome k! Hehee...

Some shoppings for Little Jared from OldNavy (ON). Bought them in bigger sizes 12-18mth this time cause he outgrow his clothings really fast. LOL..

A simple stripe tee and a pair of fleece pants for our little imp. After making several purchases from authentic OldNavy clothings for Jared, I trust their materials to be comfy and soft for babies.

Am waiting for the loots to arrive our doorsteps very soon. Yippee!!~

Going for KFC breakfast on every Monday morning at Bukit Panjang Plaza has become a weekly routine for us. Bought some groceries at NTUC this morning after our breakfast and Jared was so so so so happy. Heheheh..

Replenished some 干贝s and ikan bilis from Hock Hua. They are mainly for Jared's porridge.

As usual, he was in his pram when we went to Plaza but his pram became our groceries trolley when we come back cause he refused to sit in it for too long. Haiyo.. 我们都习惯了。

I bought an organic papaya from Rail Mall yesterday so I decided to puree it and give to Jared today but he dislike it!! He gave me a "yuck" face.. He feels disgusted, probably due to the papaya taste. Well, I understand not everyone likes papaya, at least his Dad doesn't. Looking at how poor thing he is, end up I steamed some organic toufu with ikan bilis stock for him. He loves it of course and it ain't his 1st time tasting the steamed mashed toufu.

We spent some quality time together at home. He loves cuddling into me and make my day worthwhile. Not to forget, I snapped lotsa candid shots of him today and a video of him too. He likes to *boooo booo* at me and splatters all his saliva over my face since Saturday. Probably his saliva brings me luck & wealth cause his birth cert. number actually came in 3rd prize on Saturday's 4D. LOL.. Ya, apparently I got some small luck :)

Below is the video of him today boooo-ing his saliva at me. Pardon me for my shaky hands cause I was carrying him on one hand and holding on to my handphone on the other hand.

We had another round of Mothers' Day dinner today. It was a long wait..... We got served only after waiting for 1 and half hour. The zi char at Fajar is still as great as ever. They served cheap and nice seafood (but they are always long queue). Little Jared was very co-operative today and he sat still inside his pram while we ate. This year's Mothers' Day will be a memorable one cause its my 1st year celebrating Mothers' Day with Mum and being a Mum myself at the same time. We took the LRT together (Hubby did not drive today) for the dinner and we walked home after that to digest ourselves. Hahaha..

Not to forget, Hubby has bought me the Powershot E1 Canon digital camera in pink today! I really love it!! The functions ain't too complicated to understand and I was also given a 4gb SD card free.

This is the one of the pics I took for Jared. It shows quite clearly on his eyelashes that's curling upwards. LOL... We've received many compliments on his eyelashes that makes him look like a doll doll with mascara. hehehe..*

Oh yah, Jared turns 8mths today!

He sits without support now.
Sleeps shorter during his afternoon naps.
Drinking 180ml now.
Knows how to differentiate meal time and dessert time.
Wants to drink water when he's having his porridge but not when he's having purees.
Runs in his walker.
Says "mumm mumm" and "arrmm.." when he sees food or milk bottle.
Open & close his little palm when we says "byebye" to him.
Has 2 toothies now.
Having slight seperation anxiety now *LOL*
Reverse his walker and dash towards the object which he wants to grab.
Drag & grab everything in the house when he's inside the walker.

That's what I can think of now. Will update more when I can recall.

Thinking of getting a new digital camera. Been eyeing on the Canon E1 Powershot since the day it was launched but kept dragging & dragging till now.

Since Mothers' Day is coming, I probably will get Hubby to buy it for me cause its my first year celebrating Mothers' Day and being a Mother. LOL... Nonetheless, our 3rd wedding anniversary is just less than a month away! Hehehehe..

Anyway, I set my eyes on this Sony Cybershot too.

Comparing those Canon and the Sony one, the latter has bigger LCD screen and its higher in megapixels. Considering on cost effective factors, the Canon one is better cause it uses AA batteries to operate. Hheheehe.. Most importantly, the Cotton Pink is so nicee... =D

Lalallalalalalala.. Should I get or not? After promoting to become a Mother of Jared, I put him on priority first. Times when I wanna get myself something that isn't really very cheap, I will think of how the money can be used/spent on Jared blah blah blah.. thus I'd delaying myself from getting the Canon E1. This time round, I think most likely I will get it cause the Olympus I am using now kept having problems to detect the memory cards.

Today is the 4th day I'm staying home with Jared. Busy clearing my maternity leaves and I will be back to work on Wednesday. Hehehehe...

On the 1st May, we attended a baby shower at my Big Aunt's place. He was quite well-behaved and even received a big ang pow from my 3rd Aunt cause some of them hadn't seen Jared before. LOL.. For the past few nights, I'd bunked in with Jared. He's my sweetie pie and I'd took lotsa photos of him. I am so glad to witness his development everyday.

I've tried putting him to sit on his own without support (but he has yet to crawl). Indeed he's able to do it now. I was quite worried that he may fall sideways but after much assurance and confidence I seen in him, I can now walk away to pick up my phone or other stuffs without monitoring him. Lastly, I specifically uploaded a pic of Jared sitting on his own. His facial expression is so cute lor..
