Look Ma, No hands!

Hehehehe... haven't blogged for awhile coz mummy was sick with food poisoning!

This is me, in my new clothes that daddy bought from Argentina (the tag says 1 year old, but so tight on me! Those Latino babies must be really tiny!)

This is me, sitting up!!!!


Now, before you start thinking I can sit up on my own... I can't!!!! Just managed to hold myself up for a couple of minutes only! Doesn't help that I'm a TAD heavy! =)

Here's me again, in my fave pasttime... *zzzzz*

Hello world, I'm 6 months dy!

Yup, turned 6 months old yesterday!


Hmm, weighed myself. 8.1 kgs dy... i wonder why i'm gaining weight when i'm hardly drinking my milk! These days i'm more interested in sticking my fingers into my mouth =)


Mummy and daddy were busy fixing my cot last Sun. They didn't want to pay A$75 for some strange man to do it. Took them like an hour to put the cot and change table together, and.. drum roll... here it is!

The change table (with pink change mat):


My cot (front and side views):

If you look hard enough, you can see me sleeping in it!!! =)

See how happy I am!? THANKS DADDY!

Ouch, Ouch, Ouch!!! #$%#!

Mummy and Daddy were cruel to me today!

They bundled me into my stroller and I thought we were going shopping, so there I was laughing and squealing away. Little did I know, I was at the clinic, waiting in line to see the doctor for my 6-month vaccinations.

The doctor gave me two jabs. The first one, I didn't cry much. Somehow I think I didn't realise what was happening, but I was fully aware when the 2nd needle poked into my big thigh! I let out the loudest wail and kicked my legs hard! And some blood spurted out onto my nice new clothes (which daddy had bought all the way from Argentina - it's 9-12 months, but quite tight on me already) and also smeared onto mummy's nice white jacket!!!! Sob sob. That kinda ruined the whole day.

Think I was in shock for most of the morning, drifted in and out of sleep, and had little shivers in the afternoon. Didn't even bother to wake up for my milk. Boo hoo.

At least mummy and daddy had a nice time shopping the rest of the day. They went to Babies Galore and bought me a cot! It was on discount coz it was the display unit and had some scratches. But almost half price! And came with a free changing table. Hmm... they probably felt guilty for putting me through such an ordeal, and was trying to buy back me love! =) OK la, I forgive them...

Here are pics of my new cot! The colour is different though, mine is the golden oak colour. Hopefully I'll be able to adjust to sleeping in a cot. Quite used to having the double bed all to myself hehe :)

The cot is a 2-in-1: converts into a junior bed:

And this is the free changing table:

NICE OR NOT?!

Daddy's home! But where's Grandma?

Wow, haven't had time to blog this whole week. That's cause daddy came home and I spent a lot of time with him and grandma! Especially cause this was grandma's last week here, boo hoo... *sniffles*


From today onwards, it's back to full time child care for me, hopefully I'll be able to adjust.


Here are some pics of me with grandma, both in our pink clothes!




Also, yesterday I ALMOST managed to sit up on my own whilst I was on daddy's lap... see sequence of pics below! Daddy looks like he's gonna bite my head off in one of the pics!







Oh tomorrow mummy's bringing me out - for my 6-month vaccination! *ouch*!!!!

Rain, rain go away...

It's been raining non-stop the last 5 days, which was good for the farmers but bad for me.
Mummy had plans to go to pyrmont markets today, and luckily for us, the sun was out in full blast!

So off we headed to the markets, bright and early at 8.30 am. Got there at 9 am and the place was packed! Had a good time there sampling the local homemade goodies, and also bumped into aunty yvonne and uncle veh den, who babysat me whilst mummy went shopping with grandma!

This is mummy and me, looking all distracted again! (Just woke up!)

This is aunty yvonne - getting all excited about sausages and balsamic vinegar.. hmm... as u can see, I'm listening intently!

This is us, just before leaving the markets... heading to the fish market for some lunch! Argh, the sun's shining on my bald head!

Aahh.. much better in the stroller hehe.

Here's us at the fish markets, enjoying some oysters and lobster!

OH, daddy's coming home tomorrow!!! Can't wait can't wait can't wait.............

It all happened so quickly!

This was me, yesterday... Trying to turn onto my tummy... somehow I just couldn't do it! So frustrating!!!!

And today, by some miracle, and in the blink of an eye - I MANAGED TO TURN! From my back to my tummy!!!! All on my little ownsome!!! I'm sooooo proud of myself!!! Hehe... Watch out world, I'll be sitting up on my own soon! =)

It all happened so quickly that mummy almost missed it on video! Check it out below :)
