Katie's Milestone

Can't imagine I'm doing the milestone update only close to her 1st birthday. Pardon us as we were having the second kid symptom since Kate's arrival. Juggling with 2 kiddos aren'tas speedy as only managing one, nevertheless we had lots of fun.

Kate had been a cheerful baby since birth and smitten our closed ones with her everlasting smile and giggle. She plays endlessly, sleeps very little, drinks and eat rather well, very active and bubbly. So far those points stated were just opposite of her elder brother Darius. Thus no doubt we too a longer time to settle down.

Milestone (No worries, I pen down her progress even though no blog updates)

1 Month Old -- Sleeping at odd hours (US timezone), a hungry buffalo

2 Month Old -- Only able to sleep like normal baby after 3weeks into her 2nd month. Likes to hold her head up on her own when we carry her. She likes to be carried upright position than cradling her.

21Months Old Darius Boy

Hello, greetings from sunshine boy. This month we didn't had a lot of outing as most of the time daddy bring darius out without mommy, hence unable to go too far. Recently Darius became a fan of Barney, at least there is some entertainment for him. Hope to spend more time or plan a trip for him after we settle down.

Milestone wise, he have been very adventurous in trying new food. Favorite food of the month is King of the fruit "Durian", whatever mommy eat Darius will "steal" a few mouthful. So as mommy is ballooning, reckon Darius also put on some weight due to the junk food. He tried to mimic a few words and like to mimic our actions too.

We enrolled Darius and cousin Kimi to Music discovery class as they seems to enjoy the trial class. Its all fun and music anyway. After the first 2 classes, he is attempting to jump, dance when there's music going on. Hope this can temporary keep him occupy.

Hello, this is me and my favourite bear

Our housekeeper ~ Mr Darius

This is our personal housekeeper, he loves to sweep and mop the floor but ironically he is the one who create the mess. Surprisingly, he did quite a quite a good job in mopping, going tiles by tiles. Reckon he had been observing grandma doing chores. On the same afternoon, he was knock out for 3 hours of nap. Not bad exercise for him, ha.
