Just found out about something that apparently has already been in existence for quite some time, of which we've all suspected but never really thought about.... sheesh... i can't express how dumb i feel... and i only found out about it by chance! oh well..
Sorry.. that's a random thought that's kinda bothering me... =)
Anyway, been spending lots of time with Nigel and Sheena lately.... funny how since we've named them as Faith's other godparents, they've been coming round a whole lot!
Had asked Sheena for a favour to babysit Faith coz I was busy.. and Faith simply adores the funny games they've come up with together... haha.. she's taken a million shots of Faith... in addition to the numerous ones that I take already! Sigh.. .now I've SOOO many photos to develop!
Nigel comes round every Friday after he books out... and we went out for dinner yesterday.... Sheena and Nigel were so eager to carry Faith in the baby carrier, so we let them do so.. Darling and me ended up with an empty stroller, and people were still trying to figure out where our baby was! haha... i commented that we probably look like parents in depression! =p Baby Faith loves their company and well, for that hour or so, she looked like their child, and Darling and me were free for a while!
Haha..... this makes me confident that I can leave her in their care in future..... =D
Have been discussing so much about weddings with Sheena coz her friend's in the planning process, and we came up with this idea that if they couldn't find a place by the time they get married, they can rent a room from us first... esp since Nigel's gonna be posted overseas quite often, and Sheena won't want to stay alone.. haha.. that'll be fun.. an extra pair of hands to help me with Faith... hehe.....
Mac & Cheese next Saturday ya?? ;p
Had a family celebration on Thursday for Father's Day.. Darling celebrated his first Father's Day... and well, as always, it was a nice and warm dinner with 2 of my 3 brothers... =)
Next week is gonna be a busy week... and when most teachers return to work in preparation for the Term ahead... preparations are also being made in the case of school closure due to the virus... sigh.. i wonder how it's gonna affect my attachment...
With the onset of meetings are also the fact that I've to really leave Faith on her own with my mum now..... my mum hasn't officially taken care of Faith all by herself yet... and I only hope that my mum can help us keep to the schedule we've kept for Faith so far... and be able to handle her well.......I can only pray for the best.....
Baby Faith is now teething.... which by itself, is already weird.. because most babies only begin their journey at 3 months plus, and she only turns 3 months on Monday! What's even weirder is that almost all babies start with their lower two front teeth first, but this girl has her canines coming out first......was telling Darling that if ALL her canines emerge first, she'll really look like a little vampire... =)
The teething is giving her some problems though... she gets more irritable if she's left alone for too long coz the pain and itchiness and discomfort gets to her.... will check with the Doc on Monday to see how's everything.. for now... we can only give her teethers and hope it helps.
Can't wait for the check-up on Monday, because we'll get to see how much she's grown lately! She should definitely weigh more than 5 kg now... and measuring her yesterday, she's about 64cm already.... but i guess we both just want to know for sure how much she's grown... like my friend said, their weight and height gain is somewhat like our progress cards... to see if we're doing things right!
Plus, we can't start solids till she's at least doubled her birth weight of 3.28kg... and I'm REALLY looking forward to preparing all the fruit and vegetable purees and cereals for her..... so we have to jiayou!!! =p
Gonna bring her to the beach in a while... have a little family outing.. hope she'll be happy and enjoy the sights..... maybe she'll even love the beach as much as her godparents do! haha...
many many photos.. but they'll all be on Baby's blog.. =)
