Tomorrow's the day that Hubby's gonna come back from Rockhampton and the whole family's anticipating his return! Hurray!!!

Today is Hubby's birthday and his first with Cait, but sad to say, he had to spend it overseas without us. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY! *sings cait* LOL

Cait is so afraid of the heat and everywhere she goes, she has a personal fan. Lately, due to Cait's bottom 2 pearlies popping out, she's into biting everything she sees. Here's some footage of Cait caught "attacking" her fan.

Fan blade #1 is being ripped off by Cait's gigantic strength! Do not provoke her!

Caught in the act attacking fan blade #2

Attempting to chew off the fan motor even!

End results of the poor fan with 2 blades missing

Enjoying the "fruits of labour" after hard work at chewing and ripping the fan apart

Knowing the camera is filming so she conveniently develops a headache to aviod questioning. Act blur Cait.. LOL

Hmm.. better pretend to play with the walker toy ignition key and steering wheel till Mummy gets off my back..

The poor fan with 2 fan blades chewed and ripped off, even the head of the fan got pulled apart by Cait

Cait looking innocently at the camera after chewing the whole fan apart

Cait is destroying evidence by dumping the damaged fan from the walker. But she is still looking at the last fan petal left.. hmmm.. LOL

Cait is daring and stretches her hands and fingers into the turning fan!

Cait is meddling with the fan still!

Cait is dismantling the fan!

Not-so-Sweet ending to Sweet Potato :)

Few days back, Wifey gave Cait 3 big chunks of sweet potato for lunch, and something funny occurred! Unsure if it was overdose of sweet potatoes, or indigestion for Cait, Mom said the next morning, Cait ended up pooping sweet potato poo. Wifey was at work and thought it meant orangey poo, but then... Mom took the photos to show Wifey and it was like a piece of sweet potato! Orange on the inside and with a thin layer of brown skin! Cait "gave birth" to a piece of sweet potato! LOL

Warning! Gross photos below not for the faint hearted! :P

Sweet Potato poo 1

Sweet Potato poo 2

Wifey is totally amused and has no idea how Cait delivered the triangular Sweet potato poo 2.. lol

Cait attempted to drink from a straw cup after Wifey's coll suggested training her on the straw so its easier when going out if Cait knows how to use a water bottle. Hence, Cait received her first straw water cup! She seems more interested in chewing the straw than sucking the water. But it seems like when Wifey said "milk milk" Cait will try to suck on the straw then give a smile as if she managed to get some water.

Cait trying out drinking with straw for the first time!

Its raining heavily now and Cait's watching TV and playing on Hubby's bed

Wifey is back!

by Sweety Family | Sunday, November 01, 2009 in | comments (0)

Wifey is back from her company trip to and in those few days, Cait was taken care of by Mom, Dad, Sis and Bro-in-law. Neighbour also helped take care of Cait when Mom was tired out or needed to take showers. Thanks to all of them!

Mom said Cait was generally well behaved but she was more cranky and cried for no reason. Sometimes there will be 2 rows of tears rolling from her eyes. Lightly touching her will also result in her being cranky and she'll cry as if she was being pinched by someone.

The night before Wifey was due to come home, Mom said they were telling Cait that Wifey will be home the next day and Cait was excited and kept laughing and smiling the whole night, sleeping later than her bed-time. Does Cait really know or "sense" that Wifey will be home soon? LOL

The moment Wifey reached home, she went to look at Cait who just woke up from her nap, and Cait starting kicking fast and furious, and smiled to Wifey with arms stretched out asking for "bao bao" (hug hug) LOL. She was so sticky and when Wifey had to put her down on playmat to unpack luggage, Cait began to sob pitifully. Haha

Some pictures of Cait taking her afternoon nap on Sat, using her hand to block the light.

Cait taking a nap on Mom's bed and there's some light coming in from the window

So the smart girl uses her strong arm to cover and with her pillows, she manage to block the light!

See mummy! I left a lil hole to let air in so I can still breathe!

Total coverage from top view, no way the sunlight can reach me now!

Cait's legs are unable to close nicely due to her meaty thighs and strong calves LOL

Cait's beautiful and shapely behind.. lol

Gifts from Uncle

Cait received new gifts and she's happy to try them on!

Cait posing for the camera to show the new woolie hats that Uncle, Mom's boss bought for her from Shanghai

Cait is so happy that she has new gifts

Cait looking up at Wifey and Mom for approval , "Mummy, Ah Ma, look nice on me??"

Cait in the sweet pink woolie

Cait in a hot pink woolie

Cait closing observing her new shoes, and pinching her toes to see if there is any extra space for growth..

Pink shoes is also nice.. hmmm

Cait bit Wifey!

Just now as Wifey was bathing Cait, Wifey was cleaning Cait's back and Cait was leaning forward. Usually, Cait will put her lip to Wifey or Mom's wrist and suck on the arm. But as she is teething now, she gave Wifey a big bite when she was sucking on the arm! There is now a red teeth bite mark, about almost 1cm long on the side of Wifey's wrist! So, all be warned that Cait knows how to attack by biting! LOL

The family is missing Hubby alot and are all anticipating his return in 2 more Mondays!! Hang in there everyone! :)

PC's alive again!

by Sweety Family | Monday, October 26, 2009 in | comments (0)

Hubby's PC is alive again all thanks to his good pal, W, who came all the way to their place to fix up the PC. Turns out there was a lil battery on the motherboard that was flat, hence the PC could not power up. Phew, at least not so damaging on the pockets! Thanks W!

Updates on the last few days:

Last Sat, Wifey, Mom and Cait went out for breakfast via LRT and Cait was nice and well behaved the whole trip. She kept very quiet and kept observing her surroundings. When having their breakfast, Cait also sat quietly in her stroller.

YEs!! Finally we're going out!!

Cait is soooo happy to be out of the house

Why are we not moving off yet?? Wait until my legs are long enough to touch the stroller bar.

Cait awaiting the LRT

Cait looking at the LRT she just came out from

Cait giving us the go-ahead to proceed to our next stop

Cait sitting at the coffeeshop looking at us having breakfast, mummy, where's mine??

Cait's breakfast snack

After breakfast at the coffeeshop, Mom asked Cait if she wants to pay Dr Adrian a visit since he was Wifey's gynae and "touched" Cait often when she was in Wifey's tummy. Due to the long Q at the clinic, they decided not to and proceeded to Lot 1 for some light shopping and dessert at the foodcourt.

Cait took a few mouth tastings of Cheng Tng and she loves it.

Cait is tired after being out since early morning.

Wifey went home alone with Cait as Mom went to work. They took the LRT back and after alighting, Wifey realised the lift at the platform is out of order! There was no maintenance worker nearby, but the lift was stuck in between 2 levels and a metal barricade was in front of the lift. There was no way to cross over to the opposite platform, and there was no one in sight to help Wifey with Cait, stroller, diaper bag and shopping bags!

Hence, Wifey left the stroller at the platform and ran down the many flights of stairs with Cait, and there is no one at the ground floor to help them as well! No control station staff too! But there were 2 uncles chatting at the mama shop, and 1 of them is a grandfather that owns the shops, as Wifey sees him whenever she takes the LRT.

As Wifey approach them for help, they are on the outside of the gantry and unable to help, hence Wifey took a risk and passed Cait to the uncle to carry for a while and she dashed up to carry the stroller down. Surprisingly Cait did not cry and the old uncle held Cait below her armpit area and let Cait sit on the gantry box, where you tap the card.

Wifely told Mom what happened in the evening, and Mom was very upset and said it was wrong to do that. Wifey could have just sat at the platform and scream until someone came to help, or call the LRT HQ for help. Looking back at the morning's events, Wifely also felt it was alil scary, but knowing the Uncle is a grandfather himself and he's the owner of the stall, in broad daylight, it should be quite safe.

So mummies, if you encounter such an event, Wifey thought for some time, and maybe the best way was, to board the next LRT again, go to the next stop, take the lift down, and take the opposite lift up to take the LRT in the reverse direction by 1 stop, then you'll be on the side with the good lift!

SO after coming home, Cait was all tired from the morning activities and she fell asleep for 2hours.

Cait was sleeping with fan full blast and see what's that patch below her head.

No, that's not cait's pee, but cait's perspiration!

"goofy, i tell you a secret ok, come near to me"

"goofy, you are so smelly and the smell reminds me of daddy"

Cait is following in her daddy's shoes and starting to like goofy

Cait attempting to smell and suddenly put goofy's nose to her mouth

Suddenly goofy's nose is in cait's mouth!

Sunday

Early morning 8am and music was blasting at a community event downstairs

Its to celebrate the launch of the Park Conector and there's even a milo van.

Sad to say, when Mom brought Cait down and asked for a balloon for Cait, the person in charge refuse to give her one. And said she'll have to wait until after the VIP arrive and do the exercise then balloons can be given out. Mom was furious but as she is unable to communicate with the non-chinese person in charge in English, she asked Wifey to get one for Cait. Wifey approached another RC member, who asked the person in charge and was also rejected! But that old uncle was nice and took the initiative to remove the balloons tied to the funfair stall to give to Cait. Thanks Uncle!

Wifey will be away for a company trip from Tues - Fri

Hope Mom and Cait will be fine these days. Cait is being cranky and very sticky as she is teething! Today, her bottom left tooth is more prominent! Wifey will not be able to update the blog these few days. Please be patient to followers of our family blog! :)

Computer down

While wifey is unable to do the blogging, hubby will do it on her behalf since there is an internet connection.

PC is down and wifey asked hubby's good friend, William, to drop by their house to fix the issue. Hoping that everything will be fine and wifey will be back on action!

Hubby was shocked to see that Cait had grown up so big!

Hubby and wifey were talking on phone just now and knew from her that, Cait is having her first tooth! This is so exciting!

2 more weeks to go before hubby can join his family and help out in housework and taking care of Cait.

Importantly, let's hope that the PC will be up and running real soon!

Day 4 that Hubby's in Australia

by Boon | Thursday, October 22, 2009 in | comments (0)

Its been a few days without Hubby to help out at home and no "chauffeur" around, and everyone at home especially Mom is feeling exhausted!

Mom is complaining of many ailments like headache, breathlessness, gastric and body-aches. Today its great pain in arm. Partly its due to Cait getting heavier and also Mom getting older. But everyone is still doing fine and looking forward to seeing Hubby again!

Wifey is feeling that Cait suddenly expanded and she looks different! Hubby too by looking at photos and video calls with Cait while he is Australia! haha

Here are some photos of these past few days to share

Cait is a happy baby with her personal fan and nicely powdered face

Cait attempting to remove the cushion in front of her chest discreetly

Giving the innocent look while freeing the cushion. Moments later the cushion was flung far away!

Recently she's taken interest in eating other parts of her pacifier except the teat.

See! I can use my fatty hands to balance the pacifier on my lips.

Cait enjoying playing just before bedtime. She loves being frightened suddenly.

Babybliss Card

A few weeks back, Wifey also applied from South West CDC the babybliss card for Cait. It is meant for those stay in the South Western part of Singapore, with newborns below the age of 1. So mummies in the area do remember to apply for yours! Its a fast process and took about 2 weeks after Wifey faxed in the application and when ready, they will call to inform the pick up location.

Cait's gift from the Southwest CDC, to thank her for being born.
(and to thank her for being an eligible vote in 21 years time maybe LOL)

The new Flash & Go Cashcard with a stored value of $38

Here are some videos of Cait. Enjoy watching to Hubby as well! You can see your lil princess while you "holidaying"! LOL

Laughing Cait @ Bedtime. She's so amused and just wants to play. She loves to get frightened and will laugh.

Poor Cait was so happy that she fell sideways at the end of the video. She was not hurt at all and continued laughing, thinking it was a game!

Cait just started going forward and after this time she returned to walking backwards! Can see her strong firm feet on the ground. Wifey is guessing Cait wants to impress Hubby when he's back so she's starting this milestone secretly when Hubby is away!

Just now it was amusing when Wifey let Cait watch her own "home videos" and Cait got upset and all emotional. She looked very sad and pitiful and kept looking at Wifey and Grandma for consolation. Wifey is guessing that silly Cait must have thought that someone in that video is playing with HER toys, HER walker, HER beloved tigger soft toy hence the emo looks.. Orrrrr... LOL.. Such an innocent sweetie pie!

Daddy's off to Australia for a month!!

by Boon | Monday, October 19, 2009 in | comments (0)

Today Wifey, Cait, Ye-Ye and Bro-in-law sent Hubby to T3 of the airport. Hubby will be gone for a month to serve the country and at the same time, have an all expense paid trip to Queensland.. Pity Hubby said its a very "ulu" place and there's nothing to buy there! If not, could have gotten alot of nice pressies for friends/relatives and interesting toys/clothings for Cait.

So WIfey is trying to blog today (usually its Hubby blogging) and its so complicating for her to transfer pics from camera to computer, backup, upload to flickr, then add descriptions, then blog! And this is already a short cut cos wifey does not know how to process the pictures and upload using flock as "instructed" by hubby. :P

Silly wifey took the camera to the airport and when taking pictures the camera does not turn on! The battery was left at home charging! So hubby used his camera to take and he'll upload on his end in Australia.

Wifey only managed to capture some pic at home when cait was napping. She's so tired that she slept from 3-6pm and wifey had to turn off the fan in order to rouse her from her lala-land for evening bath-time.

can you spot cait in the picture?

ta da!! cait is sleeping for 3hr after sending daddy to the airport. so tired!

cait sleeping soundly still

when the fan is turned off, cait instantly react by turning left and right

cait opened her eyes suddenly and stretched out her arms once she woke up

cait is awake after her nap!

cait still keep her eyes closed while she "ahhhhh" and she's so warm her hair is all wet!

Oh ya! About 2 weeks back wifey purchased a diaper bag online from Annie of Good Bargains, very efficient and nice seller that Wifey purchased a wallet from perviously. She packs the bags very nicely, comes in dustbag/box and sent promptly from US to her via fedex and she'll promptly send out via courier to buyers.
