Xmas II

The World of Contrasts: J vs X (his younger cousin by 3 months)

J is BIG while X is tiny.

J is fair while X is dark.

J is active while X is demure.

Xmas I

We had a Xmas lunch with both sides of the family and J was understandably excited by the many presents he received. After a while, he was more interested in the wrapper though. I know what to get for him next time, haha ;)

We wish you a Merry Xmas...

Rolling good times; Finger licking good

J is able to roll from his back to his stomach (about 2 weeks ago) and he has the perfect incentive to do so!

Boo.Boo.Boo

J has learnt to blow bubbles (videoed on 17 Dec). What fun for him but how G hates this phase of developmentI

We are so going to...

a) Swensens

This is the first western restaurant that J has been to so it's only apt to borrow their advertising slogan ;)
He's quite good during the meal after we fed him and he looked on very curiously at all our food!


b) McDonalds

J had his jabs and we popped by Ridout on our way back. The aftereffect of the jabs is that he was very sleepy the rest of the day. Still, the little chap was very brave when he had the first jab - he merely whimpered. Alas, the second jab was one too many...

Babyroo

Have not had much success with the sling cos J was too big a baby. So I mainly used the Baby Bjorn. But, I was in an experimental mood and tried the sling again after he turned 4 months cos there is another carrying position plus he is getting too heavy for me to carry. He was not too pleased at my first attempt but I figured out how to give him more space in my later attempts.

And here's the same picture after playing around with some iPhone app:



I also resort to placing J into the stroller when my hands are too tired from carrying/lifting/holding him. J also loves to put his feet up on the stroller. A future Towkay in the making? :P

I have a picture of J in the pump bag that I bring to work. When I showed J the picture, he reached to grasp it and I was pleased to have captured this shot :)

USS

Couple time at Universal Studios thanks to G's company's tickets :)
The most exciting ride was the Mummy ride since the Battlestar is still closed... I am looking forward to the time when J can enjoy such rides since G is quite chicken for cool rides in amusement parks!
