She wasn't in a very good mood since the fleece was thick and hot for our weather.
And then she just had her morning bath and was demanding her 1st nap of the day!

桂花果冻
Thanks to my greatest pal (aka Mrs Tan wannabe) I get to taste this :)
Btw, I kept the boxes for future replenishment. Hehe...

Baby Chloe vs Baby Xiang Ying
Visited Pauline and her Princess over the weekend. Gosh Pauline seems to be having an easier time than I was during my confinement. Don't know why but I dread having visitors come over during that phase. I was so tired all the time and having guests over meant that I could not nap and have to do a lot of talking. *LOL* Pauline my heroine delivered via natural and without epidural. Her delivery was a fast and smooth one. Well done gal!
Baby Chloe smiling to Auntie Jo.
Baby Chloe showing off her 婴桃小嘴.
The 3 week old and the 3 month old.
3 week one so gentle. 3 month one looks so gangsterish.
Making the "kill ppl face" and like going for 谈判.
Baby Chloe is the longest (ok tallest) baby I ever seen. 55cm at birth! My 湘颖 was like 48cm... cannot blame la. Look at her parents' height.
Super looks like her Dad. I always hear ppl say 1st daughter looks like Dad.
Maybe it's true? Mine too!
Catching a wink and 霸占 Chloe's beanie pillow.

Stuff from Diapers.com
All thanks to Mummy Jas, my baby stuff arrived so promptly!
* I love sprees :) *
My new diaper bag from JJ Coles. It's called the Tactic Changing Purse.
Yes, my idea of diaper bag is compact. I don't see the need of the big and bulky one (yet).
I love the changing mat that came with it.
I can fit in 2pcs diapers, 1 change of clothing, wet wipes, 1 bottle of milk and of course the changing mat. Perfect for short outings to parents' home or short shopping trips. But then again I never leave home for a duration of over 5-6hours a stretch these days (fear of engorgement and leaking). To fit in the bottle is kinda packed so I sometimes put the bottle in my own bag. I usually bring at least 2 feeds worth of milk anyway. Oh... just to clarify, I'm Eping (exclusive pumping) 80% of the time. Princess only "agrees" to nursing during night feeds or morning feeds. There's also a compartment for me to put my small purse. For a run to our neighbourhood mall, I'll just throw my stuff in that compartment and I don't need to carry an additional bag.
This is how it looks when hung on pram hooks.
Does the daisy print one look nicer?
Actually I'm considering to get this: http://www.diapers.com/Product/ProductDetail.aspx?productId=19011 when Princess gets older. But do I need another bag??
Carter's bibs for Princess. She doesn't need them yet but I couldn't resist buying them first.
Baby boy bibs for my very dear friend Mdm Tan. Sorry C I know you don't really fancy being called that but my Ah Lim very gian to be Mrs Tan so I reckon she will be very happy to see more Tan-s mentioned. Haha
More Carter's bodysuits for Princess. She can move on to these after she has outgrown her current batch :)

My 3 month old baby
Yes yes she's 3 months old now. 13 weeks and 1 day to be exact.
And no. She can't flip yet. Almost and about to can?
Were out to my Dad's place most of today so no pics taken.
Some update pics taken 1-2 days before.
I wanna kick my Mummy (left leg)
To be fair to my right leg, I must utilise it!
In case you didn't realise, I can box as well.
Come on, I'm waiting.
Satisfied after her little "exercise" session.
Exploring her little Safari. Not really interested though.
I put her this direction, she can wriggle her way out of the tunnel... hehe
This is for Frau Anna.

Das ist mein Milch.
Practising my rusty German. Phew... can only manage ONE short sentence and I don't even know correct or not? Haha...
About 4 litres here.
Oh and also for Ah Lim. Don't worry still have. Can thaw anytime you want *LOL*.

My new toy!
Pram? Oh yes we have a pram. A hot pink Combi one.
It's very useful on days when I'm taking a train to places which have direct access via MRT or for longer time away from home. However, it is so not practical when I'm alone at home and I want to go back to my Dad's place cuz it requires me to change to a short bus ride after taking the train. I can't be possibly lugging the pram up the bus right? Even if I wanna take a cab ride by myself, it's also tough to bring the pram. Therefore I thought "Hey why not get a sarong sling which is so versatile (can carry baby multiple ways and can be used for nursing) and seems so easy to use". So, down I went to MIM showroom at Jalan Pemimpin and got myself one in Cotton Sateen complete with instructions in a DVD. Well, it seemed a breeze to use it when the nice lady showed me the steps using a doll. When I came back, I sort of forgetten how to deal with the rings. It doesn't help even after watching the video repeatedly for about 5 times. So far we have succeeded bringing baby out in the sarong TWICE! Once to the GP clinic downstairs (which we promptly removed upon reaching) and once in the car ride to Dad's place (I was nursing her at that time). That's it. I give up on the sarong sling. Too lazy to learn the proper way to use it.
Few days ago I stumbled upon a baby pouch by Pupsik Studio. Ok I'll admit it. The colourful prints attracted me more than anything else and I saw a review on Insing.com on how easy this was to use. I couldn't wait any longer. Went to Mothercare to buy it the very next day. It's really easy!!! To be fair, MIM also has a similar product but the lady at the showroom advised me it makes more sense to get the sarong sling since it's "free-size" while the pouch has a sizing which means the pouch can only be used by a person same size as me = Daddy can't use it. After purchasing the Pupsik pouch, I realised it doesn't matter if Daddy can't use it cuz he will use the pram anyway and also, he does not bring baby out without me!
This is the print that attracted me so much. Such a cheery print.
I considered getting it in this print as well.
But... I ended up choosing the boring solid colour. Yes, I'm a boring person *yawn* and no matter how hard I try, I will still end up with pink. Pink rompers, mittens, everything. I'm pink-ed out :P But you'll have to agree this shade of pink is nice.
Yeah! So happy after buying. Can't wait to use it.
Beginner me trying to use it.

Side view. I can't use it very well yet. Can't wait for Princess to turn 4 months then I can carry her in "Kangaroo style" which is exactly what the model is demostrating.
In fact the pouch is so good that I ditched the pram and went for lunch with D today with the pouch. Can you imagine I ate my lunch while Princess sleeping inside the pouch? Kind of awkward but do-able. Mistake lor cuz my shoulders ache after carrying her for a few hours. So I guess it's not really wise to use the pouch if I plan to be out for more than a few hours. Cannot try on clothes also. Best to use on shorter journeys.
The next carrier I'm aiming is this one. Ergo cloth carrier. So ergonomical. Haha only one baby so many carriers for what?

First dose of Pneumococcal jab
Yes the sadist parents at work again!
This time round is Darling's 1st Pneumococcal jab.
Did not want to do this initially but MOH just announced it's compulsory from 1st Nov 09 onwards. Too bad our GP clinic not Medisave nor CDA registered :(
Which means all have to pay in cash and these jabs are expensive!
Next video will be 4 weeks later when Darling goes for her 2nd 6 in 1 jab. Hehe...

What view do you have?
Some ppl have pool view, sea view, city view etc.
But I'm contented with the view from my bed :)
Everytime I open my eyes, turn to my left I get this superb view.

Time saver home-cooked dinner
Cooked this for dinner few days back.
Chicken soup with corn and carrot.
Stir-fry 小白菜(don't know what's the English name for this veggie) with dried scallop.
Hubby calls this veggies the "chicken rice veggie". *duh*
Don't be mistaken I ill-treat my hubby hor.
Just that we weren't very hungry that day...
The dried scallop was very tasty. Happened to walk past the Chinese medicine shop at my neighbourhood and bought a few pieces. I used 2 pieces here. Quite big pieces :)
