2 nights back, you suddenly vomited at 5am while you are sleeping, mummy thought its a one off thing like the previous time and wanted to latch you and let you sleep but you vomited again. Daddy and Mummy woke up and kept you company for 1-2 hours before you get back to sleep. Mummy was afraid that she passed her diarrhoea bacteria to you but luckily you did not vomit again after that.

You attended 2 weddings last weekend, both grooms are Daddy's secondary school friends so we met Daddy's friends for 2 consecutive nights. On the first night, other than Uncle peanut, you did not really want to let other uncles carry you but on the second night, maybe you started to recognize their faces and warm up to them, you let the Uncles carry you and you were being passed around the table and entertaining the Uncles.

Crawling

During the Taiwan trip, you started crawling with your tummy off the ground and stop using your face to move forward. Now, you are officially certified as a "crawler". These few days, you start to hold on to the side of the bed and stand up and you will be so proud of yourself that you managed to do it.

When Daddy changed into his jeans(with the noise from the belt), you know that he is going out and you will stop what you are doing and wants him to carry you. As you grow up, you get smarter and naughtier at the same time but we love you all the same. Stay healthy!!

You had a swim at Uncle Edmund's place on Monday and you had a great time. Mummy did not know how to use Daddy's phone to take video but we have some photos of you while you are in the pool with Daddy.

Teething

We finally felt your teeth sprouting out last Saturday but only one teeth, we felt something sharp on your teeth. Hopefully, your the other teeth will sprout soon and we can feast together.

1st vacation-Taiwan

We went Taiwan from 23 June 2012 to 2 July 2012. You had many of your "firsts" on this trip, first time taking plane, High Speed railway, MRT, train, bus and etc..

You feel asleep on the plane and when Mummy wants to place you in the bassinet, you woke up and started screaming and refused to sleep in the bassinet. Mummy and Daddy had to take turn to carry you to sleep.

Most of the time during the trip, you were sticking to us and refused to let 叔叔，爷爷 or 奶奶 to carry. It was a tiring but enjoyable trip for all of us. We had a great time and hope you did too.

Some "milestones":

• You can sit yourself up from the lying down position
• You can "slide" your way down the bed

Some photos of you during the trip

1st Staycation and Uncle Denny's Wedding

We attended Uncle Denny and Aunty Joann wedding on 16 June 2012 at Carlton Hotel. Daddy booked a room at the hotel and we had our first staycation.

We brought you to the swimming pool to swim with your float but you don't seem to like the float and mummy had to carry you whle both of us sat in the baby swimming pool and play with the water. You had a great time splashing the water but Daddy had to left us 10 minutes after we were in the pool as he had to help Uncle Denny with his wedding preparation.

In the lift going back to our room

You fell asleep at 6+pm and we carried you to the banquet hall at7+pm and you continue to sleep amid all the noise and talking in the banquet hall. After you are awake, mummy told grandma to carry you for 10-15 more minutes before letting other people carry you as you need time to warm up and if we were to let other people carry you immediately, you might be in a bad mood for the rest of the dinner.

You enjoyed the attention and smiled at everyone who looked at you or called your name, you were not grouchy and most of the relatives carried you and played with you.

You prefer the float on dry land rather than in the pool.

Having your last nap in the hotel room.

Love you, Daddy and Mummy's little boy!

New haircut

You had your second haircut on 9 June 2012. Daddy brought you to Toys R Us to play with the toys while Mummy and Hoon yiyi were shopping at Vivo. Daddy saw kids cutting hair inside Toys R Us and we decided to give you a hair cut too.

The hair stylist aunty passed you a toy and placed it on your lap for you to play but you were more interested in the noise coming from the razor. Hoon Yiyi took a video of your haircut.

You in your tricycle in your new hair cut.

 

外公 says you have two pairs of eyebrows and mummy realised that when you frown, there is a very deep line above your eyebrows and it made it seems like you have 2 pairs of eyebrows.

 You can finally moved forward when you are on fours but your tummy is on the ground and you kicked yourself from the floor and your face will be on the ground rubbing your way to the front.

Insect Bite

Last Tuesday, you had an insect bite above your eyelid, 1-2 bites on your face and a few more on your leg. At night, you woke up at 3+am and refused to go back to sleep and kept making funny noise with your eyes closed. Mummy got no choice but to wake you up and you were much happier, Daddy kept you company while you watch youtube on ipad. Finally, at 4+am, you were tired and mummy latch you to sleep.




The next morning, your eyelid was swollen and your eyes became odd sizes. Your ankle was also swollen due to the insect bite.  We called your PD Dr Chan but he was on overseas leave so we had to search for another PD near our place, we brought you to Dr Winston at Kidslink. Dr Winston explained that your eyelid is swollen because you scratch the insect bite, causing the wound to be exposed and the bacteria on our skin which is usually harmless, enter through the wound and caused your swollen eyelid. We were given antibiotics,  a medicine to stop the itch, an eye drop for your eye and another cream for your the insect bites on your leg. We spent $128.40 on this visit but it was money well spent cause the swell subside after a day's medication but feeding you medicines is a nightmare cause you kept struggling and there was one time you vomited everything out including your dinner. Now, you are more used to it and won't struggle so much but you just refused to open your mouth.




On a happier note, we brought you a straw cup cause you don't seem to like drinking from a sippy cup and seeing how you love to snatch our drink and drink from our straw(although Mummy and Daddy will press it so nothing goes into your mouth). You loved the straw cup and had been using it for one to two weeks.
