I Bought It
Today managed to bought Halloween costume for my kids! My little girl got a Silly Spider and my boy got a vampire costume. I bought them all from Toys Я Us.
Really makes me hunt for the costumes just because hubby said "Why sharing? Your gal always got 2nd hand stuff, hand-me-down clothes, poor thing!"! This really a difficult task given to me, but I have completed it!
Called up few shops, but none of them having the Halloween related costume, what they have are like bumble bee, Hello Kitty, Thomas Train & etc, wah so sweet and cute but not what we are aiming for. We are targeting on pumpkin, ghost, Dracula, skeleton, most challenging were buying for an infant and have to be cute too!
I bought another outfit for Enya. I think is very cheap, selling at $7.80 only for this ladybug outfit, without hesitate, I just grab. With the 2 little wings make the outfit look so cute!

Mums Meet Up For Lunch
This week mums hang out at Paragon, Orchard, for lunch. Beside regular mums, we have some new mums joining us for lunch too! Nice to meet up with them! Nothing special or surprise for this occasion, only a session for mums to meet up for chatting and exchange ideas.
Here's the mummy that well equip with lotsa information and good deals! Most of us call her kidzskidz. Actually her name, 'Phenelope', isn't that difficult to pronounce, maybe too long for a name to be call. Here we are with our baby Sebastian and Enya.
We have occupied the restaurant's table for quite sometimes, leaving behind sweet wrappers and our unfinished drinks when we decided to go.
Total 9 mums having lunch together this week, 1 left as need to rush back for work. Gather all mums for a group photo. Here we are, gorgeous mums!
Chelsey was being left in the crowd where her mummy went to washroom. Enya looking at her and wonder what Chelsey doing. Playing Peek-A-Boo?

This Is What Happens When I Leave The Room
This is what happens when I leave the room!
OMG! I really got a shock and my heart nearly drops when I entered to my room and saw her standing. She pulled herself up in a standing position, tried to reach out things from the other side when I am on the phone! Phew! Luckily she is at the other corner and didn't fall out from the baby cot!
Quickly use my mobile phone's camera to capture the moment, my camera is too far to grab and moreover I can't just leave her again like that, just to take my camera!

Feeding Schedule - From 5 1/2 Months Old
I planned to start with rice cereal first when my baby reaches five and a half months old. My boy started rice cereal on 07Jan06, using only Heinz product. As for my gal, she started on 17Oct09, because Heinz rice cereal was off from the shelves, can't even find a single box from any stores. Left with no choice, I have to pick Nestle rice cereal.
One feed per day, I started with 1 tsp for the first day, 2 tsp on 2nd day, subsequently 3 tsp, 4 tsp, gradually increased till 1Tbsp.
Mind to share yours?

Let's Begin to Eat
As I have mention in my previous post, last week Saturday wanted to start solid for Enya but keep on postponing till today. Only yesterday received the sachet from Nestle.
Why not trying other brand? I have tried only brand that's Heinz, so no confident on others before trying out their product. Only brand comes in my mind were Nestle.
Today not an auspicious day to start with, just because hubby is around during weekend, so I want him to get involve.
Rice cereal is ready to serve!
Having enjoyed the rice cereal, Enya gives her (open mouth) stamp of approval.
Here some updates commented about Heinz out of shelves from SMH posting:-
Heinz's Story is this.
They were requested to take the cereal off the shelves due to some labeling incompliance.
AVA's Story
AVA received some samples from Heinz and they found that there were some traces of Rosemary extract in the cereal which is not recommended for infant food in Singapore. It is OK for adults. Heinz took them off the shelves on their own accord. AVA thinks that Heinz is going to reformulate for the Singapore market.
So which is which, I have no idea but I will still get the Heinz rice cereal, in blue packaging, from Malaysia!

Hang Out At Orchard
After the jab, we had our breakfast at Delifrance, then went window shopping.
Taka having sales, the sales quite attractive but we can't get anything for both kids, maybe most of my gal's stuff were hand-me-down by her brother. As for my boy, he enjoyed himself exploring around at the toy's department. As for his age now, I feel that his interest more in remote control's stuff. Maybe can consider buy him something that has remote control related for this coming Christmas.
Lunch at Fish&Co, Paragon. Don't need to mention, fish & chips for my lunch!
Here comes my cheecky boy, placing fork and spoon on his ear!
My lovely BaoBei!
Visited Metro, Metro having sales too but can't see any crowd! Too bad, nothing interest me. Mmm... ... Window shopping again!
Last stop for the day, Wayne requested, and most of the kids love to go too, 'Toys Я Us' here we go!
Wayne busy trying out all sorts of Halloween outfit from the shelves. I like the hat that he is wearing, just look so cute on him.
Ok, nothing special about Enya, only if I have more space at home, I will have this set of Rain Forest Jumperoo for her!

Received Expired Sample
Received a box of sample cereals from Nestle on Tuesday, 06Oct2009.
Here's the sample - Rice, Brown Rice & Oats with Prunes.
So happy where I can start wean her with the Nestle rice cereal this coming Saturday but all my plan have to change as the sample pack that sent to me were expired. Feel so angry with Nestle services where the staff didn't bother to check before sending out their sample product.
Can you imagine what will happen to our baby if consume the expired sample cereal. So horrible! Even I called them up and their lines were busy till off office hours. Leave them my particulars and hopefully they care to call me back.

We Share
We share love from daddy & mommy equally.You take left and I will take right.
We nap together.
We occupied daddy & mommy's bed together.
We sleep side by side to each other.
This is so call sibling!
What's A Good Time To Start?
What's a good time to start solid food? Is your little one ready?
She can sit up with support and are able to control her head & neck movement as mention in the books. While we eat, she watched and her mouth will mimic. So I think she is ready, and I have decided to go ahead with the weaning process early. Not this week, probably next week.
Here are some very clear sign that she has deliver to me recently, she demanded for more feeds than usual, almost every 2 and a half hours during the day. She wakes up at night and demand for additional feeds, so average of total 9 to 10 feeds per day. Mostly during the day I will probably exhausted!
Another sign of her is she watches me eat with great interest, she drools and put her fingers in to her mouth to suck. Sometimes while I carry her, she even tries to take my food by using her hand to grab, or move her body towards to the table.
Lastly, doubling of birth weight. At birth, weighted her at 3.105kg and now she is > 7.38kg.
I have to establish a regular meal schedules for her now and really can't wait till the day comes, to watch how she express when given rice cereal to her.
