Sleeping Time For Sara

Image
Putting Sara to sleep during those early months was quite a challenge. Mad Cat and I will have to take turns to carry the crying baby to sleep. But the bright side of it, she hardly wakes up for night feed. Once she turned 3 months or so, putting her to sleep was a breeze. Every night, Mad Cat will play with her while I take my bath. Occasionally, I can hear a little squeal follow by her laughter in the next room. When its time for bed, Mad Cat will read her stories from her mini library which are books we bought during MPH sales. When she gets too tired for story time, Daddy will SOS Mummy to the rescue for her night feed. It will be then a ‘Mummy-and-Baby’ time. After the feed, we will both lie side by side facing each other on her super single mattress. She will automatically pop her two favorite fingers in her mouth to suck (I can never answer to the question as to why my baby never suck her thumb) while her other hand will reach out to grab my nose, pinch my cheek and pull my hai...

Kuala Lumpur Court Complex

Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad its Moorish style was built in 1897 to house various administrative departments of the British Government at that time and was later converted to house the Supreme and High Courts of Malaya. I remembered spending an average of 3 days in a week in that building when I started my chambering. How lost was I on my first few weeks. The building itself a mystery and wonder with its underground passages and hidden offices, with narrow staircase hidden behind pillars leading to the Session Court Registry. And most of all, the one person whom all chambering students had to dealt with. He would bark at us, chambees if we were to file our papers wrongly. At the same time, he is the very person who guided us through with those complicated papers. He would tell me what is to be filed, "Yeah, you keep this and frame it up, while you can give this to your mother-in-law!" Today the courts have shifted to this...

Transformers

Watched TRANSFORMERS on Sunday. We almost miss the show due to the unexplainable traffic jam in and around Mid Valley. Why can't people be more creative and just find somewhere else to go or do than just to hang out in Mid Valley on the day when I decided to watch a show!!! TRANSFORMERS! Abosolutely love it. Love the Chevrolet Camaro , the Pontiac Soltice and the modified Ford Mustang police car AND the transformation of machines to Autobots! (Sexy girls? What girls?!!) And of course, Optimus Prime's sexy voice!!!Woohoo!

My Baby, an actress??

I did a favor for a friend, and did a short air time playing the part of a clueless mother-to-be while being pregnant with Sara at about 7 months in a parenting show called "Parenting 123". Last night Red Communications (the one who did the "Parenting 123") called me and asked if I was interested to have Sara appear in a local TV drama as an adopted baby girl to a couple. After I put the phone down, I began to have pictures of advertisement contracts floating and dancing in my head and had imagined that Sara was a much sought after baby for various advertisements. I was getting quite interested (that does not mean that I support child labour). I happily brought up the subject to Mad Cat and his immediate response was "My baby is too precious to be handled by anyone and no one is going to adopt my BABY!" AND that was the end of Sara's movie career...well, that's show biz!

Solid Food

Sara started on her solid on 16 June, few days before she turns 6 months. I was eager to start feeding her with solid food and suggested to Mad Cat to get a tin of baby cereal for her. Being inexperience, I took the advice of some articles and started her off with 2 to 3 teaspoons of cereal just for starters. That got her quite interested in solid food. However, 2 days later, Grandma decided to give her more (a small bowl full) and suprise, suprise she finished almost the whole bowl of cereal!Where does she store all the food?! But I was glad that she has the potential to be a FOODIE!!! There is always space for Sara to join her mother and her godma for some food escapade :)
