MiB - 36 days old (1m6d)

30 July 2009 (Thu)

last night was better than expected, after feeding before midnight, pp only woke up at 03:xx and then 07:xx.

This morning went to PMH for pp to have blood testing. After waiting for an hour, we were admitted into the room for consultation. Then it's blood-drawing time, and they asked pppp and Qr to leave the room... :o i could hear pp cry inside the room when his blood was drawn... :'(
when the door was open, pp no longer cried, but another surprise came -- i thought they drew blood from baby via the sole, it turned out that they drew the blood from the back of his left hand. when pp came out, his left hand was sticked with a cotton ball... poor little baby... :(

pp is 5 weeks old now, holding him in Qr's arm today and she was amazed how big pp has become -- 40-cm-circumferenced head, 57-cm body length, and 4.33-kg weight per PMH -- and the growth since the day he was born.

Today was Qr's first day to bathe pp. he cried while washing his hair (which is his daily ritual), but quite enjoyed the bathing.. :)

Today was PP's birthday, therefore we went over to a restaurant in her area for dinner. Since it's close to my ex-ex-company, i went there to visit the ex-colleagues before dinner. pppp went with me, and i came across the big boss at the entrance as he was on his way out. pp was highly praised by my ex-colleagues, and so was pppp.. :)

10:30 visited the panel doc (so free of charge) who has got great comments @ baby kingdom. Unfortunately, the doc said he will open his own clinic around end of the year. by then, gotta see see if he's still panel doc -- provided i'm still at my current company la -- or i'll need to find pp another doc.

14:xx went for tea and met with pppp's friend who had just finished a lunch appointment in the area.

pppp, pp & Qr all went for a nap in the evening for almost 3 hours -- sooo nice!!! then we went out for vegetarian dinner. pp had bmilk there, too. good that he's not having formula which is not officially vegetarian food, haha...

MiB - 33 days old (1m3d)

27 July 2009 (Mon)

after 30 mins of crying (from 00:15 - 00:45), pp finally fell asleep by himself.
話口未完, pp suddenly cried in his sleep.. so pppp hugged him back to sleep.

and surprisingly, he didn't wake up until 05:00... and then 08:00 - however, Qr wouldn't believe that she's so lucky, likely it's a single separate incidence and probably won't happen again tonight.

pppp needed to go to work today, pp was still awake, so Qr played with him with black-&-white patterns to stimulate his eyesight, with a big colourful book about cat, hat, rat, mat... and with the wooden haba toys, and finally with some crawling practice before he whined for feeding and went to sleep.

this morning, pppp was officially sick. we went to the doc and he's got 急性扁桃腺發炎... doc gave him 5 days of medication, and said if it persists/gets worse, may need to operate... :o

Grand-uncle 4, Grand-auntie 4 and Ah Yi as well as GG came to visit pp. Ah Yi is 16 years old and has gone to Leeds for studies (year 11) for a year, now just came back for summer vacation.

took a nice shower in the morning... so happy.

today was the first day Qr went out without pppp or pp -- Qr went to the book fair today!!!
unlike past years... Qr didn't look at Qr's books, didn't stay long, and didn't buy much. Qr just went to children's paradise for pp's flash cards and missed pppp and pp all the time.

finally bought a set of dot flash cards for pp.

in the evening, Uncle Anthony and Auntie Ivy came over to visit us. We went to sushi place @ citywalk for dinner and then ming sifu for dessert. in between, pppp went to a sports place and bought Qr a wrist support, as Qr started to feel pain in the wrist and the thumb -- probably for holding and feeding pp, and pumping milk.
