This is something which i have not done for my other 2 kids... blogging about their one month.


Arianne had been q a difficult and fussy baby, refusing to sleep throughout the full one month and always crying for milk. Having a confinement lady doesnt help much... i was laughing to myself.. perhaps the loud high pitched"noise" of the CL kept Arianne awake :p

Arianne had grown quite a bit from the tiny winy little newborn we saw in the hospital. I guess she must be ard 4.5 to 5kg now, judging fr her size. She grew 4cm... so she was 55cm by full month.

Fiona had always been a sweet elder sis. She handled Arianne with tender touches and light kisses. Aaron as usual, is v mischievious. He would hug his sister tightly and touch her head when i'm not looking (something i disallowed him).

As for me, rest was a priviledge which i rarely have. With 3 kids around it's something hard to have. It has taken me more than 3 days to complete up to this part of the Blog. Fiona is always up to some mischieve when we don't supervise her. During the whole one mth, she has done many things which had made us scream our lungs out! She squeezed out almost 3/4 tube of Desitin diaper rash cream and applied it on her neck, plucked out the keys fr our laptop, climb up the metal gate of our home, threw her toys outside the door, threw stuff down fr top of the staircase.... etc etc.... i feel that i am almost going mad handling her behaviour!!! We call her Fierce Fiona coz she would strike out a fierce fight with her brother over minor things. Aaron, though a big brother, would never give in to his sister... that's how all the fights would begin. As a 5.5 yr old kid, Aaron loved to ask questions. I really really wished i had more free time to spend with him and plan some holiday programs for him. My days revolved around cries, fights, tantrums, breastfeeding...... i wish for free time... even 10 mins of bath is precious time! Usually, i cant even spend more than 5 mins in peace! After 1 mth, i'm still FAT, yes FAT...5 kgs of fat still sitting in me. The hair looks like a mad mop and face still belmished with lots of freckles! Sadly, this is what pregnancy had done to me :( I never agreed with comments that pregnant women look the most radiant... at least not for me. U'll not get to see a pic of me here till i look more presentable... heee

Arianne's full month was celebrated at home. We bought cakes from E-creative and Sweetest Moments. Over the weekend, we invited our relatives over 2 sessions and had food catered from Neo Gardens. As usual, the 2 older kids felt so happy to have people coming over, especially Aaron.

At the end of this post, i pray v hard for God to give me patience .... AND MORE PATIENCE.

Strawberry Shortcake had been a hot fad in my younger days. I have this old doll, which my dad bought when I did well for my exams in Primary 1.

So that makes it 26 years old!!! It's still kept in v good condition.. only thing missing is the smell of strawberries :)
