Many people have asked me if Dillon would show jealousy towards his sister Kaith, but so far I can see that both of them get along pretty well. Perhaps because Kaith is still too young to "fight" for things with Dillon (haha), or maybe because their age gap is close (19 months). In fact, Dillon would always share his toys with Kaith, he likes to hug her, kiss her on her forehead, push her along in her walker, and when Kaith cries in the swing, he'll quickly go & swing her back to sleep.
I would give equal attention & be fair to both of them and I hope they would grow up caring & loving each other.

It's been half a year....
It's been a while since I last blog about Kaith's progress and now she has turned 6 months old already in just a blink!
Kaith is still on breast milk, and Enfalac A+ formula milk occasionally (when mummy didn't pump/feed as frequent :P). She is taking 6oz each feed and she is also eating brown rice cereal 3-4 times a week. Since she is doing quite well with the milk, I only plan to start her on other solid food when she turned 7-8 months, same like what I did to Dillon. She now weighs a healthy 7.8kg and she looks chubby. :)
She is yet to sit up straight on her own without support but I don't see her "practising" that a lot; instead she is more keen on attempting to crawl! Nowadays she is always on all fours and enjoys to rock her body back & forth. :)
Another act she likes to do is playing with her feet......
.....and sucking on her toes, yummy..... haha :P
Dillon skipped crawling and went straight to pull himself in standing position and start walking, I wonder if Kaith is going to skip sitting and go straight into crawling?

Wedding invitations
My high school classmate just got married last month and I must say that her wedding invitations really impressed me. There are 4 printed pages with their wedding photos and the card is beautifully designed with glossy paper and ribbons. I still recall that my colleague also had a very unique wedding invitation where the couple actually shares their love story in a poem written on their wedding card.
Having a nice wedding invitation is part of the dream wedding and it could last a good memory to the guests too. There are a lot of themes and designs that are available in the market and if budget is the concern, try look out for the discount wedding invitations online.
Apart from getting the personalized wedding cards, the wedding menus and wedding favors can also share the same theme as the cards to enhance the occasion and the guests will sure cherish in remembrance of this special day!
Loosing weight
I'm lucky that I didn't put on massive weight during my 2 pregnancies and I can still manage to get back in my ideal weight now. But some of my friends just can't seem to be able to shed off that extra pounds they've put on, even they went on strict diet or exhausting exercise.
In this case they can actually opt for LAP-BAND® System from JourneyLite, which is the safest weight loss surgery available, with proven results. They can enroll for free seminar first and find out if it is suitable and then start on a healthier and happier life in this New Year.

Gathering @ Bijou
This is a backdated post.
A casual dinner with some daddies, mummies & kids were organised at Bijou Mont Kiara on 29th Dec 2007 (Sat). The occasion starts at 6.30pm and adjourned at 9.30pm after the Gift Exchange session. We had 5 families that consists of 10 adults and 9 kids in the house where the eldest is 8 years old and the youngest is Kaith at 6 months old. Most of the kids fall in the age range of 1.5 - 3 years old.
All kids had fun at the playground while the parents chatting away but we couldn't chat much with each other because most of the time we were still keeping our eyes on the kids.
The ambiance was cozy and food was good, and it was great to see how the kids interact with each other and had fun playing together.
Thanks to everyone who made this gathering a memorable one, I'm looking forward to the next get together.

Shop online
In the past 2 weeks, almost every shopping mall is packed with the people doing last minute Christmas and New Year shopping. You could imagine how long the queue was at the cashier and gift wrapping counter!
At time like this, I would prefer to stay home and do my shopping online without having to go through the hassle. I just need to browse the store, choose the item I like and put in my shopping cart, then made payment online upon checking out and the item will be delivered to me in a couple of days, I can even request for gift wrapping, depending if the online store has offered the service.
