9 months baby signing MILK

This is a 9 months baby sign for milk. http://joeymah.com/
He is diaper off on 9 months as well! All thanks for the Baby Signs® Program helps baby to TALK before they can TALK!!!

Babies have a lot to say....even before they can actually speak. With the Original Baby Signs® Program, babies and toddlers can communicate what they see, what they need and even how they feel by using simple easy-to-do signs for words like "Eat", "Milk" and "More". Research has shown that the Baby Signs® Program decreases frustration, help babies talk sooner, enriches parent-child relationships, and boosts' babies intellectual development.

My 9 Months Diaper Off Baby!!!

Amazing, right? I was shocked to see DRY diaper every morning as well! My 9 months baby, Isaac really has confident on himself. He will CALL us when he needs to wee and pass motion.

The key to train up your BB to be potty trainned is - Communication!

How to communicate? He merely a 9 months BB? It through Baby Sign® Program. Signing is the allow the baby to TALK before baby can really TALK!  

By the time babies are 9 to 10 months old, they are quite capable of knowing what it is they need or want. What they don’t know is how to tell us with words – which leads directly to frustration for baby and parent alike. All this changes when a baby is able to use signs. With signs like “thirsty,” “hungry,” “hot,” and “cold” – and many, many others – at their disposal, babies can make their needs known quickly and quietly without resorting to tantrums and tears. No wonder “Decreased frustration!” is the answer we most frequently get when we ask how using the Baby Signs® Program has changed daily life.


I started to use baby sign since my elder son was 8 months and he is diaper off when 14 months. With my experience, my second baby successfully diaper off on 9 months! Baby Sign® Program really works! Other than signing, bonding also a key factor.

Skynet - The WORST Courier Service!

I really lose my temper with SKYNET this time!

I received the sender email that my parcel will reach on Friday. Therefore I was waiting for my parcel since last Friday everyday. While I check online, the status was - OUT FOR DELIVERY

On the 5th of June, I check the status online AGAIN. It was OUT FOR DELIVERY again. So I cancel all the out going activities with my boy but stay at home to wait for the delivery. Wait... Wait... Wait... It was about 4pm, I have no patient to wait for them anymore. I call their hotline in KL. Then, the customer service gave me a Penang phone number.

After calling the penang branch, she mentioned "Saya TAK TAU, you boleh call the delivery man, ini handphone dia ......"

Then I called the delivery man. Herewith the conversation with the delivery man.

Delivery Man - DM ; Mommy Psedornna - MP

MP: Saya nak check bila parcel saya sampai. saya tinggal di "Sxxxxxxxx"
DM: Oooo... "Sxxxxxxx" belum pergi sana, u nak sekarang?

MP: since last friday sudah tulis "OUT FOR DELIVERY" tapi kenapa belum sampai lagi?
DM: Oooo... "Sxxxxxxx" susah nak pergi, nak naik lift. tunggu dulu lar.
MP: sudah tunggu 3 hari, nak tunggu lagi? boleh hantar hari ini?

DM: tak boleh lar, sudah lewat, nak hujan lor! u turun ambil sendiri la!

MP: huh? skynet macam ini? nak ambil sendiri?
DM: SKYNET MEMANG MACAM INI!
Then he hang up the call!

So the reason for them to drag my parcel for 3 days was my house -"susah nak pergi, nak naik lift"

I have no choice but to call the KL office again. His feedback to me was the penang branch should not gave me the delivery man handphone number and require me to call him directly! And he promise my parcel will reach my door step by today.

After one hour, the STRONG Indian delivery man was here with my parcel. He STARED AT ME when passing the parcel to me to sign and asked "you telephone KL tadi?" Due to the size of the parcel, I need to open the door to collect, I not dare to say anything. I just signed and locked the gate immediately!

I was F~E~A~R! Just my little boy with me at home that time! no CCTV outside my house some more!

Anyway, this was really a BAD experience with SKYNET. If you have other choices, please do not choose SKYNET!

Car Washing Fun~~~

This is the first time I wash my car together with my boy. I brought along a story book for my boy to read in case he bored watching me washing my car. Surprisingly he volunteer to help me to wash.

Then he started to follow what I did, holding the sponge to clean the car. wash... wash... wash...

After washing, he even helped me to fill up water in the bucket and washed the sponge WITHOUT MY INSTRUCTION! Hahaha....
Then we dry the car together!

When I call him to pose for photo snapping, he replied me: "I am busy mommy, come to help me, FASTER!"
>.<
Anyway, we have a FUN~~~ morning.

My Boy's Update for the past 10 months

My  boy stepped into 35 months yesterday, but...... no update for him for a looongggggggggggggggggggg time. I think better jolt down everything as soon as possible rather than keep on delaying. Just a quick recall back for the past few months.
~26 Months~
= My Model =
My boy become my little model this month as his clumsy and big belly mommy the only "exercise" was kept holding the camera on my boy. Herewith my little model!
C-O-O-L  
 H-A-P-P-Y 
 S-W-I-M-M-I-N-G 
This was the first time I cut my little boy's hair. Not bad huh? My boy doesn't like hair cut at all. Whenever he saw his hair fell from the head, his tears will started to drop and started to sob, and keep asking "finish? finish????" aih... How to make hair cut is fun for him?

= Mid Autumn Festival =
Isaac due date was mid autumn. In case he come to this world on time, I took this opportunity to play lantern with him before the actual mid autumn festival. My boy more excited with the candle compare to the lantern.

= Arrival of Isaac =
After the arrival of Isaac, I just realized how lovely my boy is.
    ~ He will make a quiet sign "shhhh..." when he saw his little brother was sleeping.
    ~ He helps me to take whatever I need when I was cleaning for Isaac, eg diaper, pyjamas, napkin, handkerchief, throw poop diaper, ointment cream etc....

~27 Months~
= A Lovely & Caring Brother =
Even though he is merely 27 months, but he really act like a BIG brother of loving and taking care of his little brother. The video below was taken when he was trying to sooth his little brother.
    ~ He will put pacifier for his little brother when he cried.
    ~ He will sooth/pat his little brother when he awaken.
    ~ He will try to talk to his little brother when he fussy.





= Puzzle Lover =
This was a great month for my boy as my boy surprised me by finishing a 16 pieces of puzzle all by himself! Check-out my previous post here or his video below. I  have bought a few 16 pieces puzzle, all these puzzles are so useful when I was busy taking care of Isaac, as my boy can spend his time finished all the puzzle by himself. All the puzzle are available in Popular Book Store in a reasonable price! ^_^





~28 Months~
= Independent Boy =
He is more and more independent now. When I was busy nursing, changing diaper or rocking his little brother, this boy will know how to take care of himself. He will took off his pants and took out his potty to do his big business by himself and waited for me to clean for him after all done. Same, he will wee by himself in the potty, as he was to short to wee in the toilet bowl.
I was quite worry that he will messed up everything and kept asking him - "are you ok? do you need my help?" Yet... the answer from my boy was "no worries mommy, I can do it by myself, you take care of Ah B"
My tears dropped on the first time I heard my boy saying that in his response! It's touching!

= Good Helper =
My boy starts to help mommy on house chores since 14months to mop floor, laundry, keep toys etc...
After his little brother was born, this little boy helps a lot by taking care of his little brother while mommy take shower&cooking. He can even help me to keep all the clothes that we washed.
He is my GOOD boy ever ^_^









~29 Months~
= Speech Development =
The most memorable moment in this month was my boy starts using -ing on his speech! The first time I heard him saying that was the time I was taking shower in the bathroom. While I opened the door and realized that my boy was sitting outside hugging his puppies. I wondering what he was doing and his respond was "I was waiting for mommy finish shower". From then, I realized that he understood the meaning of -ing and use it appropriately. Due to I speak English and Cantonese with him, he don't know how to differentiate between cantonese and english. Therefore, we heard him adding in -ing in cantonese word as well. haha...

~30 Months~
= Caring big brother = 
Again, I would like to appraise him as a big brother! Just look at the picture here. He will be the first to appear in front of his little brother when he made any noise. He will soothe him with pacifier, pat him to sleep on the bed, dance and sing in front of him, take his teether or any toys to play with him.


~31 Months~
= Music Lover = 
My boy loves music since 1 years old. May you be interested to watch him play drum here and keyboard here. My sister and sister-in-law bought him his first drum set after they watched the band performance on stage. He LOVES his drum so much and take very good care of his drum till now. His little brother likes to play with it as well. But this is the only toys that he will not share with him. Hahahaha.....

= Amend Lyrics = 
I used to sing "My Bonnie" to Isaac when he was going to sleep. This cheeky Bryan changed the lyrics from "my bonnie" to "my mommy"
This was the first song he changed. Still got lots to come on the following months ^,^


~32 Months~
= Photographer = 
This little cheeky started to take photo using my sister digital camera and the photo not bad. As he knew to focus the person in the center. Then he started to use my hp to take photo when we dining out as well. Sadly, he likes to take photo of his tumbler, his puppy (and all of his soft toys), bowl, chopstick... instead of his mommy ~.~ 


= Drink Milk from cup = 
This was a great achievement for my little boy who willing to drink milk from the cup instead of his lovely milk bottle.
Bye bye milk bottle!!!!


= Button himself = 
I gain more time to take a rest as my boy took about 10 minutes to button his pyjamas every night after shower and before bed time. Hahaha... After teaching him for 1 month, he manage to button by himself perfectly now! Enjoy the video below and see how my boy button up his own pyjamas!







~33 Months~
= 70 Pieces Puzzle = 
Again, my boy breaks his own record by finishing 70 pieces puzzle all by himself! I took out his 70 pieces puzzle for him to play while I busy vacuum and mop the floor. 70 pieces is too much for him as I knew he just can finish 48 pieces puzzle. So I can vacuum and mop the house safely cause he will not running around but concentrating on his puzzle.
After a while, he came to me saying that he has completed the puzzle! Oh boy! You're great!


= First Dental Visit = 
My boy willing to sit on the chair, laid down and opened his mouth BIG to let the dentist to check for his teeth. AND... He was not doing it once but twice! As he thought it was fun to sit on a BIG chair which can FLY up and down.
Since he willing to visit the dentist, I have made next appointment for him on the 39 months. Wait to see how's he performs then >.<


= Toilet Train = 


Toilet train??? hahaha... Can't think of a suitable word to describe. My boy can go toilet "wee" all by himself now. He yet to reach the toilet bowl to wee, but he can make it by tippi toes! isn't that cute to see him wee in the toilet all by himself?
*He won't let me take photo of him, so I took it from FAR... without his notification.


~34 Months~
= Terrible 2 = 
My boy starts his terrible 2 on his 30 months. When I request him to do something, he will said "NO" / "Don't Want"! +_+|||
This naughty boy really blow me up sometime! Maybe I can't spend all my time with him now, but need to take care of Isaac, this make him start to against me. I gave him his first "cane" when I really can't control myself. His tears dropped when I cane his little hand and he knew that he has made me angry as well. So he not dare to cried out. Seeing his tears falling down, my heart felt pain too. I kept on repeating on his mistake and make sure he will not do it again. After the cane, I gave him a time out for 1 minute as well. Hope all these punishment will not repeat again.

This was the first time WE have fun in baking. Err... This Kuih Jagung need not to bake but steam only. Anyway, this was the first CAKE we do it together!

This little fella so excited shopping with me in the market for the Kuih Jagung ingredient. Keep the long story short, enjoys my boy's photo below ^_^

First, sieve all the custard powder. My boy would like like to do it all by himself. 

He taps slowly on his hand, even though a bit careless, but he still manage to sieve all the custard powder.

Then, pour the coconut milk into the custard powder. 

Next, pour the evaporated milk into the mixture.

 Then, stirred until the mixture is smooth, cook in a pot, after the mixture started to bubble, pour into another pot and steam for 15 minutes.

Outlook - not really good ^_^
Taste - not really good as well ^_^

Hahaha... seems to be not a good starting on our baking. Anyway, as long as he has fun playing throughout the process. We will try another cake soon.

Breastfeeding......

Herewith the expressed breastmilk stock in my freezer! It is total of  34 bottles with 5.5oz each bottle. 
Hehehe... Sorry to show off a bit today ^_^  But I really satisfy to see my freezer has stocked up with my milk.

In fact, I hope my post can help some mothers, who give up breastfeeding in any reason. I showed this photo not to show off that I have a lot of milk. I have milk but not a lot. For my first boy, I lack of breastfeeding knowledge, which made me failed to fully breastfeed him since the first day he was born. Then, my milk was arrived after a week. I merely successfully fully breastfeeding my elder boy on his 3rd weeks. As for my 2nd boy, I fully breastfeed him since the day he was born till now.

So... Mommies, whoever has milk on the first day or has a lot of milk, please do not give up breastfeeding your precious baby! Do not give up because of tiring pumping milk every now and then. 

Breastmilk is the BEST!!!

Songs HE likes~

What song does a 32 months (2 years and 8 months) toddler likes? Twinkle Twinkle little star? The muffin man? Baa baa black sheep? .........
My boy did sing those songs before. NOW... He like - The Cranberries the most! (so as his mommy ^.^) & another cantonese song from Hong Kong drama.

Since I started to watch "When Heaven Burn" (天与地) on my laptop last December, my boy was following me watching this Hong Kong drama as well. He likes the ending song below and start to sing along. Even sing along when he was playing with his drum.




Some day on February, we listened to Zombie-The Cranberries from the radio station inside the car. He likes the drum sound so much. He told me that he likes this song very much and request me to repeat for him. But I can't do that! So I found the CD and play for him in the car.

Whenever we are in the car, he will request me to play these 2 songs for him. Below is the video I recorded when he sang "Zombie" a few days ago. Although all the tone are out, but very funny to see his video here. Especially the part he sang "zombie... zombie..hey... hey...dou...dou..."  Hahahaha.....




So... no restrict to play only kids song to our kids! They may like the song we like as well and sing along with us! How about your kids? What song they like?

Just to share with you all the original song - Zombie from The Cranberries ^_^

I'm BACK~~~

Been silence for months....... Busy? mmm... yupe! In fact, I have made a vital decision making to enter another stage of my life! I will announce it soon... soon... ^,^

In summary, I gave birth to my second BB on September. Temporary name him - Isaac but my little boy, Bryan name him "Ah B" since he was 5 months in my belly. On the fifth day after Isaac was born, we admitted to hospital for 2 days again as Isaac vomit with "BLOOD"!!!! Then, I experienced a "terrible confinement" which end up my confinement merely in 3 weeks! On my Ah B full month, my arms, legs, face and body was RASHES for a week.

Arrrggghhhh...... It seems to be all negatives memories! Okay... In positive, Bryan had grown up, not only becomes more independent and helps me a lot on taking care of Issac AND do a lot of house chores for me.

I try my best to blog all these soon!
