Mei,
I will be on leave all the way till chu9, yippee!!!
RE: Ironing
Aiyoh, don't make your life difficult, iron one go enough already, don't have to re-iron and don't spend so much time on it. Once hubby put on the shirt and then sit in the car, the shirt immediately gets crumpled already, what's the point iron until the shirt till "wrinkle-less"? I usually spend <1 hour to iron both me and hubby 1-week work clothings. Sometimes hubby does ironing also, if he is in good mood, or if I ask him to help.

Jess,
I looked at the tin of the Enfagrow (stage 3). It recommends 3 milk feeds (190ml) per day leh. I also browse through the proposed meal schedule for toddler from 12-24 months in the "First Food" book, they recommend 1-2 times of milk per day (via cup) and they also suggest fresh cow milk.
Idea for breakfast - bread, toast, french toast, scamble egg, yogurt + fresh fruit, etc.

my hb irons his own clothes. i told him firmly i dont do ironing since i do most of the housework
just now i went toilet and realised i didnt zip up my pants since i wore my clothes in the early morning! gosh...and to think i went to take lrt, mrt, then wait for company bus, went into office, went out to coffeeshop for bfast....ekkkssss!!
violetice,
damn nice pics, i cant surf blogs in the office, can tell me which place u went to and the package you took? i wanted to take pics for my boy too
as i've said again, Ian looks good with the mop of hair. dont cut hor...i will heartpain one heehee
verene, haha, seeing your hb that time, couldnt imagine he could crack such jokes. hey, at least he jokes, rather than getting pek chek that u asked him to iron...
later going grumpus's nail shop for manicure during lunch, will update my results (good or bad)...cannot smash grumpus's zhao pai (signboard) anyway so i will post good good later haha

Mummies,
I realised recently Javin doesn't seem to like to eat his porriage anymore. Always turn his head away when we try to feed him. I got to entertain him his toys then he will open his mouth to eat. Does any babies here behave the same way? Till now i only intro him pork, chicken and fish porriage with either egg, carrots, tomato, tou fu and heng cai, broccoli. Saw this blog www.weaningsolid.blogspot.com this mummy intro alot of food to her bb.
As he only have 2 front teeth i dared not intro him rice scared he get choked.

Angelsky,
Think i will confirm CL after CNY too. U may go ahead to book Kitsune or Violetice CL if u are ready. Me also oki with either of them since recommended by the mummies here. Hopefully 2 of them are free & we can take either 1
yvonne(gerger)
Saw your msg on my FB wall but i can't reply cos' CO blocked certain access in FB. How many days did Gwen LS already & how many times a day? Recently, my mum tried to give my boy try Nestle brown rice. Though it also come with milk but he so far oki with it. And poo becum harder as brown rice belongs to the heaty side. U may wish to try?

I opted for LBS package which is $120 (Little Big Shots)
I also added the CNY walk in package. $25/Setting
The CNY costume is Ian’s. Bought at one of the shop along Pagoda’s Street. $18 for shirt and pants, $4 for hat.
<font color="0000ff">GoodBB,</font>
For additional headcount, per pax is $15. So as some pictures included Hubby and me, we have to pay an extra $30.
Also, as there are 207 photos taken in total, we paid an additional of $250 to buy all the photos in soft copies.
<font color="0000ff">Kam,</font>
He was not used to wearing the spectacles, kept trying to take it off. Sooooo difficult to take those pics! I like his pictures more than the family pictures coz I looked fat! =(
<font color="0000ff">Mei,</font>
Who said he was cooperative? It was his nap time and he was cranky. Plus the changing of attires also irritated him tremendously. Luckily, being so “tam jiak”, I gave him biscuits whenever he fussed and was rewarded with smiles. LOL!
<font color="0000ff">Yvonne,</font>
Natural? Thanks for the compliment. You should have seen how Hubby and I acted as clowns to amuse him. Super tiring being a clown. Now I know why comedians are paid so much!
<font color="0000ff">aqua,</font>
Hubby felt a bit “xin tong” for spending the money but I also think it’s well spent. After all, these are memories and not often can catch certain poses and expressions.
<font color="0000ff">pixiepixel,</font>
Thanks! You go see the blog tonight after work, can see more photos taken.
Place is Studio Loft, photographers are Maryann and Charlene. They are quite booked. Package as stated above. I have cut Ian’s hair for 4 times liao. Now a bit “gong gong” look.
Actually, attire changing is very fast. I changed him for each outfit within a minute. I very “chor lor” one. Hee!
<font color="0000ff">BlackBatz,</font>
Bring your boy there for CNY walk in lah. $25/setting. Last day on 16th Jan. Buy a costume before hand. Tell your Hubby now your boy looks different liao. =p
<font color="0000ff">blessedbaby,</font>
*grins* Yep, worth money. Some things that money can’t buy. Ian was sooooooooo tired that he slept on Hubby’s shoulder after the photoshoot.

Actually, the whole photoshoot is about an hour.
Nope, he was in casual wear. When we reached then changed him. It's better if you have some costumes, more interesting. But if don't have, nice casual wear also nice mah.
Definitely must make appointment.
Both Maryann and Charlene took as Maryann stopped to feed her boy.

VioletIce,
Have baby contest coming up leh. I posted before.
And also there is an online submission for photo to motherhood.com.sg (my infant care told me this). Look at the left hand panel, and look under the "contest" session. Think this one is sponsored by one of the insurance companies.
Good luck!
So you can try your luck.

tks for sharing abt the tripling birth weight thingy. The odd thing was.. my firstborn weighed 3.5kg @ birth (37.5wk gestation). He managed to triple birthweight @ 12m. If i carried him to 40/41 wks, he will also be big huge baby like Tobey.
violet
hey, nice pics. glad u feel worth it. Gotto show husband your blog and tempt him to bring my boys for the shots. haha.
How was their service? Some mums here hv bad experience & thought their service could be improved.

Hee. Maybe will try luck.

Thanks!
Service is so so, I wouldn’t say they are fantastic. However, they are pretty professional and fast paced.
<font color="0000ff">pixiepixel,</font>
I think it’s because they started late with us too due to an over run from previous photoshoot bah.
