Lalat at the cup

Went lunch at Wong Kok QB on Wed lunch. All of us ordered a herbal drink and when it's been served, found that there is a lalat sticking at the bottom of one of the cup! It's died i guess coz it didn't move at all. Since it's outside the cup, so my colleague just ignore it.

Gosh, so obvious and i wonder all the servers are blind.



1987

One day, as usual, when browsing on FB, found this picture from a old-schoolmate's photo album. Wow. She still keeping it! I remember i have it too but not sure where did i keep it.

Folks, this pic taken when i was 6 years old. Guess which is me? ^^

EBM - Exclusive Breast Milk

I have been exclusively breastfeed JackJack for 6 months+ and it's still counting.

6 months might be just 'sap sap sui' for those mothers that b/fed for 2 years! But, believe me, it is not as easy as you think. I experienced many issues throughout this 6 months and until today i'm still having problem with it. Plus, restless nights to express milk. Well, EBM is the best for JackJack, so, no complaint =)

Just to share that some mothers even come out some 'grading' based on the months you have breastfed.

3 months - Certificate
6 months - Diploma
1 year - Degree
18 months - Master
2 years - PHD

So, i'm a diploma holder now =)

Anyway yesterday i have thrown away 27 packs of milk in storage bags coz it's been stored inside freezer for > 3 months. Each storage bag have averagely 5oz milk. So its ~135oz or ~4000ml!!

It's averagely 5oz per pack


This is how it looks when all milk-cube melting inside the sink


Leftover... after the 'housekeeping' of throwing away expired milk

Jack's first outstation trip - Klang @ 1st & 2nd May

It's a long weekend in conjunction of Labour day. Don't want to grow fungus by sitting at house for the whole weekend. So, brought JJ to Klang for a short 2D1N trip.

U may wondering why Klang, not KL? Coz sis-in-law staying in Klang, so went her house to overnight to save 1 night hotel. It's the first time JJ met his gugu, guzhang, cousin bro (Jia Hoong) & cousin sis (Jia Xuan).

JJ is excited meeting his lil cousin sis


JJ: I want to sayang mei mei...


Mummy: Noooooo, pls be gentle.


JJ & XX... looks alike?

Introducing solids to Jack Jack

World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends to start solid food after 6 months but we started to give him solid at his 5 months 3rd week (24th April 2010).

Why?

We always put him on bumbo chair and put on top of dining table so that we still can watch him while we eating,and JJ stares at us with his mouth 'tap tap tap'.
(Note: it's not recommended to put bumbo on elevated surface! But we are watching, so it's safe. LOL.)

Refers to some website, the few "signs" that may indicate baby is ready for Solid Foods as below:-

(1) Does your baby watch you with eager anticipation when you eat? Maybe he even opens his mouth, or tries to grab your spoon? YES!

(2)Is your baby waking at night after previously sleeping through? YES! He woke up at 4am out of his routine sleeping pattern.

(3) Does your baby have good head control? YES! Especially when he turn his head away if he doesnt want his milk!

So, we bought the Heinz baby cereal & started his very first taste of solids.



Grandpa birthday

30th April is JJ's grandpa birthday. Amy ah yi & mummy decided to buy grandpa a cake to celebrate his 53th birthday.

So after work, daddy, mummy & JJ rush to Amy ah yi's house at Gurney Park and grandpa came all the way from hometown - Serdang. All of us sing birthday song for grandpa and grandpa insisted want to blow candy with JJ. JJ is extremely excited when sees the lights of the candles!

Look at the candles!


JJ, Grandpa & Grandma


JJ also want to cut the cake!
