BB @ 4th Month

Gosh, it has been a month since I last update this blog! Our little princess is keeping mummy & daddy on their toes :) Yuan2 is becoming more expressive -- deafening scream when hungry/unhappy vs hearty chuckle when excited/happy... and actively using her hands n legs to grab/kick...

How time flies -- Yuan2 is 20-week today! Here's her happening for the past few weeks :-

1) Mummy heard her first loud chucke while playing with her @ Week 17 -- so cute to see her throw back her head in happy laughter :) Too bad daddy was not around to video this funny moment...


2) Yuan2 got a new look @ Week 18 -- we shaved her spikey funky hair @ 4mth and she had first taste of food. We put her on 3-day trial @ infant care centre(IFC) as mummy will be back @ work the following week.


Yuan2 looks like a boy -- so mummy bought cute girly headband for her :)

3) At Week 19, she preferred to sit up than lie down -- she took her first seat on a bb chair and join us for dinner @ the dining table :) She loves greenery and enjoy sitting by the window watching the green green grass patch infront of our place.



4) Without any warning signs, she did her first flip @ Week 20! And now, she will flip at every chance *haha* She is also learning to sit up...



BB outings
Brought Yuan2 to join our 3rd SMH May babies n mummies gathering -- this time was a small group of 5 babies @ mummy Joyce's place. We had a home-cooked pasta + mushroom soup lunch. Mummy Joyce is a very experienced mother of 3 kids -- she demo-ed how to use the baby sling and gave me valuable tips :)

After lunch, I drove over to TK's work place -- to "show off" Yuan2 to his colleagues before we shaved her hair.


4th Month Bday
According to Hokkien tradition, We shaved Yuan2 hair on her 4th month birthday. We brought her to a kids hair saloon -- Junior League @ Suntec City. A TV screen was playing Barney show to keep kids glued to the screen and sit still for the cut. The hairdresser tried to persuade us to keep Yuan2 hair -- juz trim instead of shave... I nearly gave it but TK insisted on shaving... Yuan2 was a good girl -- sat on my lap and let the hairdresser shaved..



Yuan2 also had her first taste of food :-
- mee sua to signify long life
- drumstick to signify have meat throughout her life
- mushroom to signify sweet smell mouth- prawn to signify rosy lips
- egg to signify round n abundance



Yuan2 was so excited to taste new food -- kept pushing the food in her mouth :)
