Nod His Head

Before I drop Randal to his nanny house this morning, we went to my parent's house which is just next door of his nanny's house. My parents were so happy to see him and so does him. The first things he saw my dad is ask for carry.... He will open his arms wide and ask them to carry. And my dad will carry him without saying NO and straight away bring him to the dining hall. My dad brought out a big can of raisins and let him to taste some. After that, they came back to the living hall.

My dad left the can of raisin on the staircase. Randal spotted it and he keep nod his head while pointing it to my dad..... My dad keep asking him whether he still want that raisin is it? And he keep nodding his head....he is so funny till I must blog it down.....hahahahha!!!!

Crawling

4 Months Old

Randal turned 4 months on 16th and we brought him for his vaccination yesterday. His weight is 7.7kg and head circumference is 41.5cm. We didn't start him the pneumococcal vaccine when he is 2 months old as we planned to let him take it when he is 4 months old. He took his 2nd dose of Rotarix and 1st dose of Synflorix yesterday.

When taking the Rotarix oral vaccine, he is trying to throw it out from his mouth but the PD is experienced and patient enough to let him finished it. The Synflorix Randal took is cheaper than Prevenar. Both Rotarix and Synflorix only cost us RM354.

Randal like to listen while we are talking now. Sometimes, he will even add in his opinion by making the sound"buuuu", "kuuuu", "aar", "yiiii".............. and even scream out loud when he is over excited. I think he will be talkative as Kendra......"faint". Another new skill he learn....... pull mommy's hair. He like to pull my hair when I try to come near to him. And sometime I pity Kendra too..... she always go near to him and thought give her brother a kiss but ended up being pull by her brother......hahahaha!!!!!

Bring or Not To Bring

We will be attend my friend's wedding dinner at KL end of this month. Initially we plan to bring along Kendra and Randal with us. When I told Randal's babysitter that we will bring him along, she seems worry that Randal is still too young for travel. She suggested us not to bring him along and leave him to stay overnight at her place.

I'm dilemma now....... I thought of bring him along because I don't wish to separate with him even a single day and I'm sure I will miss him very very much. Secondly, I felt that myself are very bad if I just bring Kendra and not bring him with us. I remembered when Kendra is about his age, we did bring her to KL too.

On the other hand, it's good not to bring him along too. As what his nanny said, virus is everywhere now and he is still young. More over, we are going to attend a dinner and scare he cannot get used to those noisy/loud environment. If without him, I can have more time to catch up with my former schoolmates.

So how....?????? Bring or not to bring....??????????

New Stroller for Randal

Got this Maclaren Quest Sport for Randal as the Combi was just uncomfortable to him due to his size. Many thanks to my ex-colleague who get me these super good deal. I like the color of the stroller.... it looks great to me.

The blanket is not included in the package. It's the prize I won from simple review.

It's a handmade minky blanket from MEGoriginal. Other than blankets, they have bibs, burp cloths, diapering set and others. All are handmade by the seller and they ship worldwide too. Maybe you can have a look at their store and found something useful for yourself.

*Note: this is not a paid post.

Roll Over

Yes, he can roll over by his own even he is only 2 months and 3 days. At first, I don't believed my eyes as I thought it must be assist by his jie jie who sit beside him. But when I ask Kendra, did she trying to push or help him to roll, she answered me that she didn't touch him at all.

I keep my eyes on him and observed. Yeah, he did it all by his own.

2 Months Old

Brought Randal for his scheduled vaccination last Saturday. Didn't let him took the Pneumococcal vaccine as the paed told us that there is another new brand of this vaccine will be available after 2 weeks time.According to him, the new brand will be cheaper compare to the existing brand. It's expect to be around RM200. So our plan is to let him have this vaccine when he is 4 months old.

Weight: 5.87kg
length: 64cm
milk intake: 5oz every 4 hour

Randal Teo

Proudly introduce to you my Prince..... Randal Teo Jia Han (张 家 瀚). He was born on 16th July 2009 which was 3 days over my estimated due date. He was 3.61kg and 54cm when born. Although I had a hard time during this delivery, but I feel it's worth when he smile at me.

Due to the unexpected complication during delivery and the Urine Tract Infection which happen on the 3rd week of my confinement, my body was so weak and I get not enough of rest during my confinement. So, hubby and I decided to send Randal to babysitter start from next Monday so that I can have a good rest. Oh yes, almost forgot to update you all about my breastfeeding journey.... I've give up to BF Randal as he is such a big eater (4oz of milk per feeding) and due to my admission to the hospital (because of the urine infection), I'm forced to stop BF him for few days and the supply drops so much when I'm discharged. I'm so stress to undergo all this unhappy moment and I think this is the main reason why my milk supply is so low.... STRESS!!!!! Furthermore, my confinement lady gave me lots of problems too...... will share with you all when I'm free later.

Anyhow, what had happen is happen. I feel so thankful to have my family and hubby to by my side when this all happen. Without their support, I think I won't be recover so fast!!!! I know you all love me so much and so do I....... I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!
