baby diaries: love and kisses

When I kiss you good night starting from your forehead, you lift your neck up to lift your mouth, as if telling me to hurry and kiss you goodnight in the lips. And when I do so and kissed both your cheeks too, you look at me like you’re very much in love with Mom.

Or it could be that you raise your lips so you could kiss Mom. Any which way my heart soars.

You do that too even in public. Last Sunday, we had a family day and hung out somewhere. When we were in a coffee shop (mainly to feed you) and I took you from Dad after I got back from the toilet, you looked at me with beaming eyes with a smile on your lips, yes, like you were so in love with me.

Thank you Moirraine. Grow up well and don’t break Mom’s and Dad’s hearts. Please?

Pigeon’s Mag Mag Spout cup

Our baby girl already tends to hold her bottle when drinking milk. Hence I thought it’s time for her to try out sippy cups with the handles. If truth be told, i’m excited to use the (very cute) sippy cups she has which were given by her Ninang and friends. But she’s still too young for them; milk would probably be all over.

Fortunately, Pigeon has a no-spill sippy cup spout designed for 5 month-old babies. Pigeon actually have this series of Mag Mag cups (cute cups with handles) which is designed to cater to the changing drinking pattern of babies as they grow – from teat top (from 3 months), to spout top (from 5 months), to training cup top (from 8 months) and straw top (from 8 months). You just simply change the top as your baby grows.

The spout base is hard but the spout itself is soft that can help provide some teething relief. The crosshairs cut on the spout ensures milk won’t be spilled.

Moirraine used it for the first time this evening. I only prepared 80ml so that there’ll be less milk that’ll spoil if in case Moirraine doesn’t like her new cup – she’s choosy with her bottles. So far, she only liked Pigeon among the four brands I’ve used. Verdict? Moirraine cried when the 80ml was finished. She wanted more. Yey!

baby diaries: your world

When you look at me with those big round eyes as if telling me your world revolves around me. Heartmelting.

When you’re about to sleep and you raise your hand up in the air, even with your eyes closed and I’m silent. My heart fills with joy and warmth because it tells me that you trust and you’re confident that Mom is always there when you need her.

When your 30 minute naps turns to a three hour sleep because you’re napping in my arms. It definitely gives me a sore arm yes. But it definitely is worth the while.

Cesky Krumlov beer

Never was a beer fan. But during our Eastern Europe trip, I made it a point to try the local brews as you really don’t get to have it anywhere else. So yes, in almost all our meals, we had beer.

This brew was in a restaurant in romantic Cesky Krumlov.
