Yeah! Declan's got 2 little teeth popping out! Was applying teething gel for him on the 1st Aug and felt something rough and realise its his little teeth! So happy!

Little boy is really growing up. Yesterday when daddy koh pressed the remote for the fan, little Declan turns to the Tv instead cos he thought we are on-ing the tv..hahaha..So cute.

His temper now very hot..Always throw tantrum when things never go his way. But for me, I will let him cry, cos I still believe should never keep giving in to his demands else it will be a habit.

Brought him to GIANT yesterday and bump into another mummy from the forum. The funny thing is we recognise each other by looking at our babies..hahah..O ya, just bought a leapfrog little touvh system for my boy, think its really educational but dun think my boy can undersatnd yet..Now the only thing he likes to do is to tear the book or bite the machine instead of reading or listening to it..sigh...Anything that's he get his hands off will be damage (ermm...reminds me of "Stich" from the movie)

Evidence of him screaming..

Baby Declan turns 8th Month today! He now weighs 9.4kg! Just learn the "Art of Screaming" 2 days ago and has been screaming regardless whether he is happy or angry.

He is 1 little fierce guy now. Can throw tantrum by clenching his fists and "grinding" his gums till his whole face turn red! OMG! Dunno what to do with him!

Now I bathe him but putting him in standing position and just shower over his head. He is 1 cute and smart fella. Whenever he sees me take the shower, he will immediately tilted his head high up in order to prevent the water from getting into his eyes. But today, as I was bathing him, he slipped but as usual, he crys for less than a minute. Am really proud of my little boy!

My boy now really enjoys the jumperoo and can jump non-stop for at least half an hour! But when you hear him scream out loud, that would means he has poo poo! Dunno why he always poo poo whenever he is in the jumperoo..

I am gradually stopping to breast feed him. Actually felt a bit guilty cos Breast milk is the best but am really very exhausting. Besides we have booked a trip to Taiwan in Sep, so in order to save all the hassle, am deciding to stop BF-ing him.

Phew! Its been real tiring these few days looking after him. Especially when Daddy Koh is away today for his business trip. So me have to look after him all by myself till late evening.

Pics!

Another 5 days and our liitle Declan will turn 8 months old! He loves to put everything into his mouth so gotta be real careful to ensure all the tiny winnie objects are out of his reach. Guess its due to teething. Gotta apply teething gel on his gums before he goes to bed every night in order to ensure him sleeping through.

Our little baby is now 9kg! Whoa, that's pretty taxing on Mummy Koh. I can no longer carry him to Punggol Plaza to buy breakfast. Must use the stroller now else my back will break. Haha. Me been cooking purees, porridges etc for him. Realise he doesn't like baby yoghurt, waste my $$$ again..

Now Little Declan has sort of established his schedule, so actually its pretty enjoyable to look after him. Except that he is very sticky, always need company. Hehe, but manage to find a way to distract him and that's "BABY BRIGHT" DVD. Aiya, of cos not for very long la, cos my little rascal has limited attention only.

Enogh said, pics!

Finally booked the birthday package with Marriot! Also book a room for that day cos think its easier in case Declan wanna take a nap or change diaper.

Looking forward to his BIG day! (Mind you, its his 1st Birthday ok! Very important! :p) haha..We are going to have a tea party with seasme street theme. Also ordered his cake already..It will be a 2 tier cake with 50 mini cupcakes. Hope everything will turn out well! Really excited!

Really feel that we are bonded even more closely now. Nowadays whenever I bid him goodbye at my mum's place, my heart feels "sour". Can also see him prefer me more than Daddy Koh! haha..Daddy Koh sour grapes saying that's because he is often not in town.

Aiyo! Really love him soooo much! How can you not love him! So cuteeeeee..(AT least that's wat Me and Daddy Koh think) haha :)

Pics!

Our little Declan hits the 7mth mark!

Now he can :

1) Recognise people and select who to carry him
2) Laugh out real loud
3) Grab everything and put in his mouth
4) Loves the baby biscuits, bread etc
5) Can finish 1 big bowl of cereal plus puree within 10 minutes
6) Can sit in his walker and move backwards, sideways and front.
7) Will cry whenevr he sees me walk away
8) Can stand with support for quite a while
9) Love to bring his leg up and suck his toes
10) Poo Poo still as smelly as ever or even more stinko
11) Loves to watch the "cough misture" advertisement
12) Loves his Humpty Dumpty Toy
13) Still has his "attitude". Ignoring people he dunno
14) Upgraded from 130ml to 160ml of milk

Bought him for his haircut yesterday. ACtually wanna shave him again but Daddy Koh already warned me not to before he left for his business trip. So must listen to him lor. Grandma thinks he looks better with the haircut cos now his hair got "shape" liao and makes his head looks even rounder..ahhaha

By the way, bought him a walker cos grandma cannot tahan him liao. He likes to be carried now and we just couldn't "take" his weight for too long liao. Yeah I know some people are against walker cos they believe the kid will walk tip toe, but I think it should be ok cos majority of us also sat in walker when we are young and most of us dun walk tip toe wat. I know its not easy to look after him, so I hope the walker can make things a little bit simpler for my mum.

Photos!

Brought our little boy to his first photoshoot last Sat! Pics turned out to be better than what we expected. Initially I was abit worried how the pics will turn out cos little Declan was very grouchy as he doesn't has enough sleep and the air-con broke down. So it was pretty hot and stuffy, but he still manage to "accomplish" his task! Good Job Boy! Mummy and Daddy so proud of you !

Tomorrow dropping by Marriot Hotel to see their package on Declan's 1st Birthday. Yeah, I know, its still about 5 months away, but those who know me will know I always like to plan in advance..hehe..Also now considering what design to use for his cake..Thinking of Seasame Beginnings theme..So anyone of u has lobangs on cupcake pics etyc on this theme, do let me know ya..

Have a look at our lovely pics!

Long time no update liao. Our little boy is still as active as ever. Now he is more responsive and knows how to select people to carry him. His appetite is gradually increasing now. He can finish 1 big bowl of cereal with puree and finish his 150ml milk in less than 2 hrs later. He loves bread, egg yolk, puree with cereal and Rusks biscuits.

The only difficult thing about him now is to put him to bed. Dunno why this little boy is not willing to sleep even though you can see that he is very tired. Sigh, dunno what to do with him. Bought him a jumperoo and will try him in it over the weekend.

Bought him to Joleen's little princess full month last sun and everyone saying how cute he is and how much he resemble his dad. Aiyo, can practically see his father flying up and hitting the ceiling when everyone says his son resemble him lor...

Little boy also likes to be out of the house now..die la, now he very "huay kah" liao..See the gate open, wanna rush forward and kicking his legs away. Sometimes he can really drive me nuts especially when he keep waking up in the nite. Dunno why he can sleep so well at ah ma's place but whenever come home must tekan us..tsk tsk..Me resigned to my fate liao..hahah
