hi KELLY,
SOLIDS FOR EDWARD
is this cereal the first food u're feeding edward? i read somewhere, the vvv first food we give our little one should be mashed banana mixed w our bmilk from mommy's finger. did u mix e cereal with ur bmilk? that might help. that's what i plan to do when leon hits 6mths.
SANTA OUTFIT
Sure i'd love to let edward wear it. Will bring it to the gathering. CJ wants to borrow too. anyone else also please let me know!
Oh, and thanks for the leon compliment
Also, edward is SO SO adorable in the video! showed my hubby too, and he loved it. edward is such a nice chubby, not too chubby but nice bb chubby, i really love it.
LUCKYSTARMUM,
i happened to call the breastfeeding advice line 63393558 and told them i had all this milk i wanted to throw away and they so happen to just have received a call from another mommy who desperately needed bmilk. u can call the same hotline (leave a voicemail and someone will promptly ring u back) and perhaps they can hook u up with someone too. note, u will have to take a blood test to ensure u don have HIV or hepatitis..

As u can see, leon is VVVV small. well he was born small 2.7kg, and his mommy/daddy both kinda small i guess .... trying not to worry about this, as long as he feeds well n is thriving which he is, he is healthy.

DISASTER TODAY
Sigh mommies, i guess i must be the first to have a bb accident. mel and i were eating at a hawker centre, with leon in his bjorn on mel. i told mel to be careful .. well enough of blame shifting. anyways, leon got his ENTIRE HAND covered in frog's leg porridge cos he reached out for the bowl and it tipped over. I SCREAMED, and everyone gave us the bad parents look. SIGH, i cried also. we washed his hand, got some ice, and it looks ok now. he was laughing again soon, altho he is still crying a bit from it. he doesnt want to look at his daddy now ... SIGH, what a way to start the new year ....
the BAD PARENT FEELING IS A TERRIBLE FEELING. we caused a real commotion. well thing my scream did .. and leon crying at the top of his lungs too. poor darling, sigh i still heart pain pain pain pain
Oh, NEW YEAR RESOLUTION. i have two
1) to do charity work (i always say say say but never do). started with donating milk...hehe.
2) i really really hope not to break this one, but i'm going to TRY WITH ALL MY HEART to embrace my MIL. i know i know, i perpetually bitch about her here & its dam hard for me not to dislike her. but ive given it thought, and well, she's q lonely cos she is alone most of the time, and well, mel is her only son, and well, her INTENTIONS r good, just delivery and communication is bad. but at the end of the day, she is someone who matters a lot to my hubby, and i think i should love/care/respect for the things in life he does
pardon the long post..lots of thoughts going thru my mind
god bless everyone this 2007!
