4 months and 3 weeks young!

Today's entry is about your developmental milestone... Yes, mommy has been lazy... didnt write about u for 2 months already... Mommy has been so busy with u my dear... n when u sleep, all i want to do is do nothing!

So how are u so far? You have been a good girl so far... but when u hit 4 months old, u start to refuse to sleep... Slightest sound awake u.... Move u alittle, u woke with big big shiny eyes... Your growth is ok... Not to heavy n not too under weight... U were 6.4kg when u were 4 months n 1 week old.. So light! Mommy wants u to be chubby like the michelin baby! The gov nurse say if u dont sleep, u cant gain weight... So that explains why u have not grown fatter cause u have not been sleeping!

What can u do to this date? Let me see, just a few days ago, u are able to sit without support for a few secs until u decided to topple down... So cute! U know how to seek for attention by faking a cry! U r such a drama queen my baby! U talk alot... Baby talk of course...U can turn side ways already... But not often... U can only manage a full turn if mommy put u on your tummy then u can turn to your back... But if u r on your back, u cant turn to your tummy yet.. U can only turn to side ways... U already starting to recognize people.. The people u could recognize so far is your ah kong n ah ma (Grandparents of daddy's side), Aunty Jennifer and of course me n your daddy! How do i know u can recognize them? If u recognize somebody, u will smile to them; if its strangers, u dont to them at all... U turn to your proud n cocky look.. :P And also, if u can recognize somebody, u ask for that person to carry u... Yes, u already know how to ask people to carry u by giving some hand signal like u wanna dive into that person's arm.. U start to observe things n want to grab things already as well.. But your hand n eye coordination is not that accurate yet; therefore, whenever u want to grab something, u miss it by an inch... SO cute!

Of course you have the moments when u r very naughty which made me want to throw u into the dustbin.. :P of course i would never do that but just saying... Hehehe... The frustration moment... Like when u refuse to sleep at night when its already 4am! Now u dont like your hair to be washed.. U will move around n wiggle alot when i wash your hair... You still dont like to be put down to wear your diapers and clothes on your diaper changing station... But u still like water n is very fine when i dip u into your bath tub to wash u up.. U like swimming as well even though u look very confused while swimming... U never once smile when u r in your mini pool.. Yes, mommy bough u a mini pool which can like put 2 inches high of water only.. Actually u r not swimming.. But mommy put you in your swim suit and then u dip into the mini pool like this...


U see your confused face?

On a different topic, when u were exactly 4months old, mommy n ah ma did a tradition for u... They call it 'Keep Saliva' tradition... Its Hockkien person tradition only where we made u wear like a necklace of biscuit then u will drip or lick those biscuits then people who loves like your parents, grandparents and great parents take a piece of biscuit n swipe your saliva off from your mouth with the biscuit n we eat them... This so that u wont salivate alot throughout your infant hood..

 Your first taste of saltiness...Your face looks so cute!

 U were so busy looking n licking the biscuits that u didnt care wats going on your surrounding...

 Going back for more!

See, so busy with your biscuits!

N yes, u have been eating your hands / fist alot now... U have been doing that ever since u r almost 3 months old.. I keep trying to stop u from eating your hand but u keep want to put your whole fist in... Sometimes one fist is not enough, u try to put 2 fist altogether! Then end up u gag cause u put your hands far into the mouth..

Hence, the picture... I try to stop u, but u insist...

You have been holding both your legs up as well.. U always do that when i leave u to sleep on your back..




I guess thats all i would like to say about u... Just remember my dear girl, your parents, grandparents and great grandparents loves u so very much! Dont believe me, there's alot of pictures to prove to u! Especially mommy.. Mommy loves u to the point that i cant live without u! I guessed i have said that too many times... So yea my dear, I LOVE U! n be good ok!
