Sayonara...Daddy and Mommy...sobs...

Daddy and Mommy are going for a AIA convention to Japan, Osaka and Tokyo in early September and is leaving me behind :(



My por por will be looking after me and feeding me with packets of frozen breastmilk.



i would on average drink 120ml per feed and about 8 feeds a day.



(120ml x 8) x 6days =5760ml



Mommy has to pump out almost 6 litres of milk by next week!!

Mommy's frezzer filled with my milk..in the blue cooler too!

I tell you...they taste really yummy after defroze

M-I-N-E!!!!!!!





This will be Mommy's first holiday away from me.





Sometimes I cry so much that she spitefully said she needed to have a stay in Shaolin Si for a few days for a retreat.





But Mommy was joking only lah.

Hrmm... right Mommy? -.-"




Mommy bought me a monkey blankie that she hugs to sleep for the past week. I get to hug it and hold it in my smelly fist in the day.

She will then let me sleep with this comfort blankie when she is away in case i miss the smell of Mommy...

May i introduce my my little friend,

Monkkie, Tan Monk Kie.

Say hello to everyone!

Me, Gwenneth Tan Rui Xuan, with my classmate, Monkkie Tan Monk Kie.

During the last few months of Mommy's pregnancy, she reckoned that reading up on "how to care for a baby" is far more important than "pregnancy weekly" books.


She spent a lot of time at Kinokuniya, reading and choosing books that teaches her the monthly progess of a baby developments and what "to do" and "not do" for a newborn.


Till date, she only bought one copy of baby magazine. ..Coz she felt that reading up on baby magazine is not econmical. The rules of bringing up a baby stays the same for years. So buying a book makes more sense.


Mommy learnt that in the first few months of my life, my vision is blurred and I can only tell apart black, white and shades of grey.



So Mommy bought some black and white cardstock and cut out some patterns for me to learn to focus, with my tiny eyes.






...and i love it!



i could stare at it for sometime before i get bored and cry for a hug.






Mommy bought flashcards too! I cant wait to learn to point at my little toes and says
"tooooessss"


this will definately amuse my Grandpa and in return, i get lots of new toys!!


Wha ha ha ha!


But Mommy says she will not start on the flashcards till i turn 3 months. She felt that I deserve all the hugs and kisses for now and have a happy "babyhood" for as long as i can.

Yawn....

Mom~~ its getting boring...

Mommy! Recess time already lah!!!

hee...it works :)

Monkkie was named after my Mommy's email address monkkie@hotmail.com. Come to think of it, Mommy said that she had this email since she was 17 and its hrmmm.....11 years ago. Mommy is getting old.

and i poke his ears...




Mommy had to answer to all the frowns she had, they judged that my Mommy is a bad Mommy to leave me behind and go for a holiday.


Its just 6 days.



But Mommy firmly believes that its important to have quality bonding time with Daddy, away from feeding and crying and everything that revolves just about ME.



"It is only if Daddy and Mommy are loving, that I will have a complete and happy family and they can bring me up in a home full of love and joy."



Don't you agree?
