Curry and me

I've fallen ill.

stomach flu, doc said.
vomited more than 5 times since about 6pm after I woke up from my nap yesterday.
Have since stopped at 8:30pm after taking anti-vomiting medicine.

but please continue to pray for me to be able to eat and keep the food in today.

actually I had frequent bowel movements (3x poo per day) for two days before yesterday but my parents didn't think much of it (cos it happens sometimes).

They even brought me Mushroom Cafe at MacRitchie Reservoir to celebrate Deepavali

with curry.
Look at the bread.
It's so big and it was toasted so I was really tempted.
then my papa dipped it in the curry and gave it to me.
I asked for more!
and had 3 servings of curry-dipped bread.

after this episode, think my mummy won't allow me to eat curry anymore.
sigh!
I love curry!
and laksa too!
(though my papa insisted that it was not the curry's fault)

young percussionist

7 months 3 weeks old

Mummy taught me how to play cymbals bang two toy cups together.

to her surprise, I did it!
She was so not expecting me to be able to bang the cups together
(considered an advanced skill for 7-month old on BabyCentre's Milestone chart).

the next day, she gave me clappers/ click clackers and I "clapped" them together while Mummy sings my favourite song from korkor's Yamaha Junior Music Class - The Little Drummer Cat.

You can get these clappers / click clackers from
ELC and party shops like SPK.
Mine are free from some events.

Mummy thinks I can start going for music classes!
but papa think Mummy has too much $$.


If you are thinking of sending your baby to music classes, here are some which offer music class for young babies:

my korkor had attended -
Kindermusik - from newborn
Seimpi School of Music - from 4 months

not tried before -
Staccato! - from 6 months
Bloom - from newborn
Magic Fiddler - from newborn

Gone swimming

6 -8 Oct 2010
few days to 4 months old

Gone swimming with my korkor and parents.
It's my 1st time swimming!
and I swam for 3 days consecutive!

Sometimes I swim forward.

Am I back in mummy's tummy?

Sometimes I swim sideways.

sometimes I swim float backwards.

when I do, I like to hook my legs together.

Sometimes I complain a lot, other times I enjoy myself.

*yawn*
swimming sure is tiring!

I even fell asleep in the pool!

Tip: Baby gets tired and hungry after swimming, get a bottle of milk ready after swim might be good.

Library for Babies

hmm... where are we?

Library?

Went with my korkor to the library.
My 1st visit and what did I do?

Drink milk
(shhh... not allowed in the library)

and

sleep.
See my korkor reading on his own in the background.

by the way, expecting mummies, go get a Pre-birth Kit for your baby.
It includes a Baby Journal, an audio CD and a Growth Chart.

Pss... remember to bring Baby's BC and a parent's IC
if you wanta make a library card for baby.
