2 things today that made me smile from ear to ear

first: megan's first wean

today, we brought a pack of cereal to megan's baby sitter to start megan's first wean... we were pretty nervous about her first wean, afterall, it all depends on megan herself, on whether she is ready or not... stories had been told of how babies would split it out, not swallowing, not opening mouth for the cereal...

and to our surprise, megan's baby sitter said megan took her first wean very successfully... thou its only 3-5 spoonful, but megan managed to finish all of them... and the amazing thing is, no splitting no messy... as the baby sitter puts it "没有大花脸"...

i think i played an important role in megan's success wean... remember how i always sit beside megan and how she enjoyed looking at me eating peanuts? she is learning it by looking at me wor... haha... ok lah, i shouldn't claim the credit lah... the credit should go to megan's baby sitter, who had started spoon-feeding megan when she is feeding her gripewater... and that explain how megan got to learn feeding from a spoon... which mrs wong did mentioned in one of her lesson that we should start spoon feeding milk to give a good head start towards weaning...

 

second: this sight when i'm fetching megan this evening

P1010778

she is happily sitting on this wooden antique chair comfortably... and the way she smile at me when she saw me walking thru the door, as if wanting to tell me "daddy, i had my first wean today and look at me, i'm sitting"...

but of course, she is still not very stable. head occasionally falling forward... but overall, her neck is getting stronger these days... which we find it pretty amusing when she lifts her head up everytime we put her on her pinky chair...

 

there is something we noticed too... dun know if its the effect of the haircut or she is getting smarter these days... it seems she is becoming mischievous, especially the way she wants to be fed or to have diaper changed... and her that cheeky satisfactory look when her demands are met... 真受不了她...

  2. oh... sounds like a challenge wor... but, its not that now she is quietly laying there for us to change diaper either... she just flip her body sideway and kicking her legs... once even kick over the pail of water when joelle is cleaning her up... kids... they just make those things... :)
