Meet up with Baby Elijah 14 Jul '10

Elijah and Ashton

Brought Ashton over to Cherlyn's place to visit baby Elijah, who is born 1 day earlier. Spent 1 hour plus catching up with Cherlyn.

Change 14 Jul '10

Starting from 14 Jul '10, I stopped latching Ashton in the daytime. Will do bottle feeding and pumping. At night I will continue to latch. Hopefully I can continue this when I return to work.

Somehow I feel guilty for not latching him. If you ask me why I don't want to latch him, I think it is due to a few reasons. Firstly, schedule can be established. I cam roughly estimate his next feed while breastfeeding can be quite erratic. Secondly, convenience as others can bottle feed him if I'm not free. Thirdly, I'm sick of pumping after latching!! Though this really boosted my supply. I can sense that supply has dipped these few days as I am latching much lesser.

Well, I think I should not be so obsessed with the amount I pump. As long as he has enough, I should be contented.

Gathering with Feb '08 Mummies 13 Jul '10

Had a great time catching up with friends from the SMH forum at Coffee Club. Wish we could stay longer but everyone has the own schedule to follow and I had to rush back to fetch Ashlynn from childcare.

The 3 baby boys are born 2 weeks apart.
Yummy Mummies!

Grandpa's Birthday 10 Jul '10

We had a pre-celebration at Seafood Paradise at Defu Lane. We had a good dinner as both kids were cooperative throughout dinner.

Ashton slept throughout dinner in his infant car seat.

Shopping for Shoes 10 Jul '10

Our little princess is quite vain for her age. She tries on shoes and even walk to the entrance of the shop to show daddy, who is waiting outside with didi. That was because mummy did that and she followed suit.

2nd Month Updates

Together with the grandparents, we brought Ashton for his 1st 6-in-1 and rotavirus jab today.

He weighs 5.425kg at 7-week plus. Dr Ong said he's growing well. After the vaccination, we went for lunch then shopped around. We bought some clothes for the kids. I find children's clothes so irresistible that I just can't stop buying for them.

Another update. I actually gave him the pacifier yesterday as he refused to be put down. He enjoyed sucking on it but cried every time it dropped out from his mouth. End up I was busy picking up his pacifier.

New Hat 30 Jun '10

As Ashlynn was going on an excursion to the zoo, daddy bought her a lovely pink hat.
She decided to put it on and modelled around the house.

We were told by teacher that she behaved well on the trip. Well done, girl!
