toto,
is the supermarket very far fr u, why does she has to take so long? if u dun like it, just tell her she has to be back at eg. 10am to cook this/wash that etc....
I only know that whenever i need her help, she's not around or not free, i will get a bit pissed. Even after our dinner, she took long time washing the dishes, the stove, mop the floor. I just tell her next time be faster cos baby wants to bathe and sleep soon....I told her now baby is big already, his wake up time is longer, so she has to do her own work faster in order to cope with accompany the baby.

Dear gals,
Would like to share with you, think my boy took his 1st step yesterday.... As long as he can stand up on his own and walk quite a distance means can walk liao right? Since 2 wks ago, occasionally he did stand up on his own but at 1st, he never walk and stood down to crawling position again. later, he stood up and walk 1-2 steps and stopped but yesterday, he stoop up more often and walk quite along distance by his own. U know, he walk from dining to kitchen and kitchen back to living room. Both me and hubby are so proud of him and really very happy...to us, it's a great milestone he had achieved. But brayden can't talk yet. He can't call papa or mama yet.

Tinklebell, ya I also heard that our child will fall sick easily at the childcare. No choice cos I want Jerica to go childcare or playgroup for exposure to learn some things and socialise with other kids.
Peng, I can understand your worry, but I feel that early exposure and foundation is important as well.

toto,
if you mind her going off so long, 1 way is to go with her & follow her marketing routine, so will know how long she spends to do marketing. Think from your place to the market is only 1 stop away, but she takes bus? then maybe at times need to wait. If shop at Sheng Siong only shouldn't take up 2-3 hours, I've been there b4, crowded also never got to queue that long - not great singapore sales le.

Serene, congrats! You must be very happy!
I can't wait for this day to happen. Jerica started on her 1st 8 steps a few weeks ago. But after that she no longer wants to walk. Maybe she is not confident enough to do so. Haiz...

Toto, take care of yourself. Hope your cough will go away soon.
sunflower, stephanie,
Thanks! Frankly, we're not the first to witness him taking off, my maid is the 1 i supposed. Since 2 days ago, she already told me that my boy can walk! U know, now he walk around my long sofa and play peek ka boo with me... so fun! When i caught him, he got so excited and laugh loudly!
toto,
that's about the distance of my hse to the market. Hmm, i agreed with sunflower, occasionally u should check her out, go with her. me too had done it! So i know the timing very well, 1 hr is more than enough. I dun ask her to buy fish/seafood. she only buy pork, chicken and vege. Seafood is taken care by my mum cos her market sells cheaper and fresher seafood.

It's great that J cultivate in the loving of books! I'm still trying hard to cultivate B on it... he seems no patient... looks like i have to work harder. J is like 1 of my friends' son, her son will also bring the books to mummy to read to him and when he goes to the book store, he will choose his own book and ask his mummy to buy.

Tinkle,
Understand how you feel, my hb also says need to get a maid to help my MIL when we have no. 2, though I really dont want one. Guess we have to look on the bright side, at least our mums are around too.
Step,
How small a piece do you cut? You cut everything? I want to let my girl eat apple piece but my MIL says no, says she has so little teeth, cannot chew well. Act she has 6 teeth liao leh.
Re: walking and talking
Xin En can walk too, she started walking slightly before she turns one. Now she walks everywhere in the house, follows me here and there when I do housework, and she likes to play hide and seek around the sofa too!
She says mama, papa and bye bye now. My FIL comment her talking is slow, is it? But her receptive language is quite good lah, can understand most of what we says, more in mandarin though.
Its amazing how fast our bb grows.

The pieces are abt half of those Gerber star biscuits. It wld actually depend on indiv baby, whether he is able to chew bigger pieces. Perhaps u wld like to try with smaller chunks first?
My gal has 8 teeth, but my mil also insisted on scrapping the fruits for her. Luckily i dun stay with ILs, so can experiment a bit. I feel that they will to start somewhere, to learn to chew. I have even give her unchopped corn kernel to eat.

happymum,
Hmm, both our kids born on the same day yah? At least yr gal can call papa, mama, say bye bye. my son can't but he definitely understand what we say. He knows to wave bye bye and clap his hands. He knows the lights, fan, door, books, toys, tv, food etc. He is especially excited when he saw the apple and orange in the super market and he will shout, 'ba ba' loudly! He eats apple and his dad eats orange everyday!
