Started my wkly jogging again last wk after 9 mths of pregnancy, 4 mths of maternity and 3 mths of laziness.. lol.

 

Hopefully i can be as motivated as last time.

Rowan's pumpkin puree...

Nice.~ but messy cos he kept putting his fingers into his mouth.

I'm a 小飞机!

I'm a RWS baby!

Our master pieces..

Rowan ~ From 1 to 6 months

Started feeding Rowan his first food on his 6 mths 'b'day' :) ~ 4 Jul

 

Bought a can of Nestle Rice Cereal @ the Nestle fair on Sat.

 

Fed Rowan his milk and then mix a bowl of cereal with his milk. Me also bought a Pigeon spoon (costs $8 for 2) and my mum was saying ' need meh??'. lol.. But i think its better to use that spoon cos the tip is smaller and meant to use for 1st stage of weaning (starting complementary food).

 

He ate and kept on pushing the hand that i'm holding the spoon into his mouth. Guess he likes it but he cld only eat a little. Anyway, it was fun and i'm happy that he can accept it. Will be making diff types of bb food ~ pumpkin puree, apple puree etc. for him to try out. Hopefully he isn't picky abt it. Today's mummies are so bz rt?? :)

Rowan's 1st b'day updates ~ ps: i know i'm a kiasu mummy.. lol.

 

Scheduled to be on 1 Jan 11, Sat.

 

Had managed to book NSRCC's bungalow with the help of my colleague who's a member. The bungalow is air-conditioned with 2 levels, 2 bedrooms. Dear had initially suggested Aloha Loyang but i shot down his idea cos it'll be very hot there. Rowan + myself wld nt be able to stand the heat.. keke..

 

And also that time drg the motherhood fair, i'd signed up for a balloon pkg for his b'day party. It consists of pooh balloons, colored balloons & an arch :)

 

I'd also decided where i want to bk the catering & cake. It'll be from e-creative.

 

So far so gd. More updates nearer to the date :)

Rowan had his injections + bell test on Wed.

 

Why the bell test? It was bcos 3 mths back, he failed his bell test. He kept looking at the doc while she shook the bell. I think it was bcos he was seeing an unfamiliar face. That's y he stared at her.

 

Anyway this time rd, a male doc shook the bell. He again kept staring at him. I was so afraid that he might fail the test again. But when dear called out his name, he could turn and see him. Phew. the doc said as long as he can turn twds the sound, its okie :)

 

We asked the doc if he was overweight. keke.. cos @ 6 mths, he was 8.9 kg. The doc said he was under the 75 percentile meaning at his age, he was heavier than 75% of the babies in SG. But anyway, the doc looked at dear and commented that Rowan had inherited his dad's genes. keke. so he's alright to have such weight.

 

After the chk, Rowan had 2 injections, 1 on each of his thighs. As usual, he cried while the needle was poked in. But he stopped crying after we went out of the rm. Gd boy Rowan! And as like before, the time to have the injection will crash with his feeding time. And hence, he was cranky thro'out. lol..

 

He had a slight fever ydy due to his injections. But he's okie today!

 

Going to start his first food prob on Sun after tomorrow's visit to the nestle event @ Suntec. So excited! Oh and i'd also went for a talk on weaning last wk @ Philips. Went alone as dear needed to work and hence, Lilia came over to bbsit Rowan for 3 hrs. She was so 'lucky' that she got the chance to clear Rowan's poo poo. keke.. i always tell her that she's an experienced bbsitter liao since she can handle anything that comes along except for bathing :)

 

Anyway for Rowan's 1st food, i'll start with Nestle rice cereal, pumpkin, banana. Will slowly introduce fruit purees that i'll make myself. Had also gave Rowan those teething rusks which are so hard to bite as they are meant to soothe his gums. Anyway, i'd a taste of it when he doesn't wants it. It tasted so horrible. lol..
