About my girl...

:) Candra's been growing well. She's been drinking quite a bit of milk (over 4 meals)...Glory to God!

Hm...I think she's now at a phase where she just can't wait to be able to move her body and limbs a bit more. Lying down on the play mat and playing with the dangling toys is no longer that fun...she prefers to be propped up on her tummy (somewhat like a leopard crawl position) but she can't be in that position for too long as well. We started to let her play in another play gym..where she can play from a sitting/standing position (with support of course)...and she loves it!!!!

We try to leave her on her own to play sometimes, so that she will not be overdependent on adults during her waketime. She's been doing quite well... when she sees us doing our own stuff, she will just stay in her play area quietly, occasionally looking around to see if anyone's going to be free to play with her. :)

She seldom cries.. only cries a little when it's time for her nap... and maybe some fussing in the evening cos she's tired. But when she's angry..she really screams her head off haha!

She just loves to play...so she refuses to finish up her milk at times. We found a way to teach her :) when she protests and refuses to take a full feed, she will be put into the baby cot again! haha!~ We will leave her in there for a few minutes...she will fuss a little... but when we pick her up and explain to her what went wrong, she will seemingly understand and finish up her milk. It works!Thank God...if not I wouldn't know how to prevent her from snacking. Guess she's not really the greedy sort (unlike me!!!)...she prefers to play.

This cute little one never cries when she poos (since birth)! That's a problem.. sometimes we don't know that she has poo-ed..she just never cries when that happens. She will just stay in her bed, awake and playing (with terribly soiled diapers)...until we realise that she has poo-ed. haha!

Both hubby and I have concluded that our little girl is hardly bothered or disturbed by uncomfortable physical conditions. She has never cried because she soiled her diaper, never cried because it's too warm or too cold etc..but she definitely cries when she doesn't get to play! Cute..:p

That's my little girl.

It's truly been enjoyable spending time with her...lovely.
