Keira weighing 8kg at 7mths 4days old

Weighed Keira this evening and she has only put on 500gram over past 1 mth. Looks like I have to wait awhile more before I can invest in a front-facing car seat for my little terror. The "official" weight to qualify for front-facing car seat is 9kg...so I'd need to wait...
These 2 days, Keira has been rather obedient seating behind in her infant car seat. All I did was to give her fav-green-guitar-shaped teether before I drive, and I can see her entertaining herself, through the reflection from rear mirror. To encourage her good behaviour, I praised her right after we got off the car, although she probably doesn't understand what I am telling her . Doesn't matter... as long as she build this good behaviour, I am happy .
Lately, I have also been reading to Keira before bedtime. Over the past few nites, I have been reading the same book - entitled Mr Perfect! haha... as in... Mr Perfect, Mr Greedy, Mr Smiley etc etc... and yes, not kidding... this book is so simple with cute pictures of Mr Perfect and his story that I think it's good to read to Keira and for her to just look at these cute pictures of Mr Perfect! Afterall, being a mummy... I would hope Keira will be Miss Perfect someday..haha... Oh, the best part is, Mr Perfect book costs only $1 haha... cheap and good! Keira loves the book, she will let out a cutie laugh when I pass her the book...not sure what is the real reason but definitely not because of the story I was trying to read to her...

Yesterday, I went to bro's house to pick Keira back home... while there, I carried Keira for a while before getting my dinner... interesting enough... I was going to put K down on the sofa . when suddenly, she bent her knees, curled up her legs and refuse to sit... gosh... i was wondering if she picked this up from her 2.5 yrs cousin karin!

Keira's 7th month story

...celebration... ce-le-bra-tion..... yeah.... little lele is 7 months today! she is a big gal now... this is such a fun time to be with her... she reacts to me and the surrounding and she is so sweet to play with. Time really flies izzn't it! Just 7 mths ago, I was scrumbling to get through my 1st month with lele and adapting to a new life myself! But look, it's all worth it! she is growing day by day, and I am seeing her growth every day! What I love most about her right now is, she is so lovable when she hugs and place her little head on my shoulder when I carry her...and she does that to daddy and grandma too... how sweet!





Keira with her 'scholar hairdo' ....



--> mama bought a soft bb brush and decided to use it on my hair for the first time! I look like a leopard-in-a-sheep's-skin!... u know what i mean?????









So... i tried to grab that brush from mama... hope she doesn't use that on me ever again! I hate ppl touching my hair!!!!!

I am back from HK C-R-A-Z-Y shopping spree!

OMG... I missed Keira sooooo badly... I have to look at K' pics on my mobile before I go to bed almost every nite while in HK! I was rushing back home from airport the moment I landed... and when I reached home, I just dumped everything on the floor, got my car keys... and zoomed..... to bro's house to fetch K back home... it was about 9pm then...
When I got there, my mum was lying with K on her bed and it was dark in the room as K was trying to sleep.... I heard that she had been playing with cousin Karin before that and so she kinda still awake ... usually, K would have been in her wonderland... Zzzzzz sweetly.. haha...
So, when i got into the room, I turned on the lights.. and saw K blinking her eyes trying to open them.. haha... when she saw me, "blink" she smiled at me! yeah... she hasn't forgotten me.... ... she was moving her whole body and hoping that I would carry her! haha... so cute... I lied down beside her.. and she flipped over... just that moment, I stood up to walk over to get the aircon remote.. and she started crying!!! gosh.. wat happened? did I accidently stepped on her or something??? I asked my mum..... Mum then told me K cried coz she tot I m leaving her alone.... haha... so cute! I felt so good about that! K longs for me... yeah... sh must have missed me terribly... like I did for her! haha...
Anyway.. about the trip....It was INDEED a very fruitful trip for me! I hate to be away from K, but at the same time, I needed a trip away for myself... It has been abt 1.5 yrs that I have not really been doing something for myself since preggie with K and after she arrived....Ofcoz... everyone kept telling me... oh.. u can still do anything (except strenuous exercise) like b4... but ... u know what... no one will understand how I really felt when I was preggie! I just din feel like myself, din wanna go out, can't bring myself to do anyway at all! shopping... gosh.. simply no mood during preggie time... So.. anyway.. I feel much beta now.

Keira says: My latest cap!

It's Easter Day today! Papa and mama brought me to IMM this morning... well, almost the usual sat/sun and public holiday morning activity... OMG.. I am getting sick of it...

Anyway... mama needed to go to Fox Boutique to get gifts for Twins Haron and Hazel... who are in HK.... coz mama will be going to HK tomorrow (!) for her crazy shopping spree - without me!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway... while mama was frantically looking for clothes, papa noticed this cutie cap and got mama to purchase it for me... yeah yeah yeah... love it, love papa :p

Keira says: Mama had a bad day .... *muak muak* to mama

"le le loves mama, mama loves le le"...
If only I could talk or sing, I would say/sing the above... and that's what mama sings to me her self-invented "lyrics and rythm" haha....
Oh well... mama told me that she had a really bad day at work today. I have no idea what it's about coz she did not relate the incidents to me. However, something unusual about mama today... she starting talking non-stop in a monotone to me about how much she loves me right from the day she found out that she was preggie, and that I must be a good gal and love her too... and she kept repeating this sentence with occasional "lele loves mama, mama loves lele" self-invented tune to me.... oh boy... she makes me wanna zzzzzzzzzz...... with that no-drive, no-pitch kinda blab..... And u know what, mama did not even realised that I have shit in my diapers while she blabbed non-stop.... arhhhhggg.... and sensing how down she is, I did not scream/cry to get her attention to my soiled nappy.... until.................... my saviour daddy came home, came into my room... saw mama blabbing non-stop.. and smelt my shit! now... I wanna go... "le le loves papa, papa loves le le".....
Sorlie.. mama.... le le still loves you....

Keira the Terror

Every evening, fetching Keira back home from bro's place is a challenge. Can I just say that its more challenging then any of my projects!!! haha...
Most of the days, she will be crying in her car seat... either she doesn't want to be alone at the back seat o that she wanna zzz...! Gosh.. hearing her scream and cry behind is driving me nuts, especially when I am driving! What can I do with her while I am driving??? I have been thinking of ways to "entertain" her while she is seated in her car seat... have not been successful as yet... what should i do? ... I get distracted... its too dangerous while I am driving... gosh!
This morning, I tried giving her teether and plastic balls to play with .. but... and u guess it right... she still yelled! arrggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
