James is 7 months old!

James loves my carrot and fish porridge and pumpkin and fish porridge. I am glad that he enjoyed the porridge that I cooked :) Tomorrow is Deepavali holiday, will cook peas and fish porridge for him :)

At 7 months, he is now able to give hand gesture when he wants to be carried, sit unsupported and eat baby biscuit. Today at 'kong kong' house, I let him try the Japanese brand bb biscuit. He really enoys it and can hear the 'cracking' sound of the biscuit somemore. Wanted to stop after 1 pc but he cried asking for more. James eats quite alot, just like Jay but dun know why both of them are of the small side compared to other kids. Is it because mum and dad are small built as well?

James got teeth!

Yesterday James has two lower teeth cutting out. He is 4 days to 7 months old. Almost the same time when Jaden had his first tooth. Let him try pigeon baby teether and he was happily munching, can hear the 'cracking' sound of the biscuit somemore :-)

Helper made some porridge for him and was not very successful. He seems to prefer pureed food than porridge. The fish is abit flaky and he didnt eat much. I've decided to cook porridge on my own next weekend instead. I remember baby Jaden was happily eating the porridge I cooked for him the last time. I'm feeling excited thinking what to prepare for him next week :)

James is 6 months old

James is 6 months old on 23 Sep 08. As usual, mummy is busy at work and couldnt bring him for jab. Daddy and helper brought him to the clinic instead.

This time, daddy said James only cry a little. Not as bad as the previous jab when it was done by another doctor. I will stick to this doctor for jab next time.

Jaden can Read

Finally Jaden is able to read a book on his own now. On Thu 1st Oct, he surprised me when he took out ridley's book "Strawberry Jam", "Book Week" and "Bulls eye" and read on his own aloud word by word. My worry has been unfounded. Thank God! :)

Happy 5th Birthday Jaden!

This year, Jaden requested for a solar system cake as usual. I've spent quite sometimes looking and couldnt find any bakery/baker who's experience in this theme. We ended up getting him Ben10 cupcakes instead. The cupcakes are pretty and all the kids are fascinated as they get to choose the pic they fancy.

Jaden has received nice gift from his frens Gwyneth, Aden and teachers. It has been a great birthday :)
