Baby's 1st tooth - 20th Sept 2008 (11 months and 4 days old)

I could see her 1st tooth popped out when we're lying on the bed on Sunday morning. I could feel the tooth with my finger. Haha!! At long last. Mom told me she already saw it on Saturday night when Zhi Ying was playing in her room. I could feel her tooth too when i breast feed her. It looks cute. Tiny little white thing. Her gums around that area were red and abit swollen on Saturday morning and she has bad breath too.

Malacca trip - 31Aug08

We passby Malacca last Sunday on our way back to KL from Segamat. We had chicken rice ball and cendol. We took baby for a walk around. She's very happy and keep on pointing here and there and said "ooo....". Her "ooo..."s sounds funny, sounds like she hasn't seen much before and soemtimes can be quite dramatic.

 

She was busy telling daddy what was around the area and suddenly, she leaned on daddy's chest and fell asleep. So funny. We're on our way to collect our car to head back to Segamat. I put her on the back seat with me sitting next to her. She had a wonderful weekend as she smiled to me when she woke up later. So sweet.

Learning to walk and share her apple - 10 months and 2 weeks

She managed to make few steps by herself since last week. The highest record was 7 little steps. Granny counted. I'm so happy and excited.

Last week I let her hold a quarter of an apple to feed herself. As she still hasn't got any teeth, I don't have to worry that she'll bite any big chunk and get chocked. At the same time, I fed her potato mix vege & fish puree. When i say "mommy mum mum", she'll put the apple to my mouth to feed me. When i say "zhi ying mum mum", she'll put the apple into her mouth. I find her actions are super duper cute! So whenever she feeds me, i'll quickly put a spoon of her puree into her mouth as she doesn't like puree that much. SHe wants adult food like rice but she has got no teeth yet. She loves bread too.

 

I read an article about swimming and it says that swimming helps strengthen baby's muscle. I guess that explains why she has strong legs to walk at such early stage.

 

She's more clingy to me lately. I read from the internet baby at 10th month will be afraid of certain things. Maybe they are more aware of the surrounding. So I hope she'll be back to herself soon - bubbly & cheerful.
