Another Early Night

@ 8 months 2 weeks 3 days

Yoohoo.. as I’m typing this Ryan is long asleep. Occassionally he will toss and open his eyes. I’ll then give him a few assurance pats and he’ll be like squinting his eyes trying to get back to sleep (very cute and funny sight seeing this usual hyper little monster’s squinting eyes effort to get back to ZZzz as if knowing it’s late, time to sleep).

Today in Ryan’s history goes…

Slept at 10pm last night
Fed Ryan milk at 6.30am (scared he’s hungry although he didn’t really fussed for milk)
8.45am – Woke up. Daddy brought jalan-jalan.
9.30am – Pom-Pom
10.00am – 7 oz milk
10.30am – Nap
12.00noon – Woke up from nap. Had rice cereal mixed with Heinz Banana & Apple Dessert
2.30pm – 7 oz milk before nap
5.15pm – Woke. Ready to go out for dinner
7.30pm – Came home (ate nearby only) and sponged
8.30pm – Pureed apple as dessert
9.30pm – ZZzz-land

Phew.. wish everyday is like today. Good night sweetie. Muaks muaks.

Sleeping Thru The Night

@ 8 months 1 week 6 days

I thought it would be good to share this special milestone. For the past #no days (I lost count, but I think more than a week) Ryan has managed to sleep through the night without any feeding. Ryan will usually wake up around 5am for his supper milk time but for the past daysss he managed to go without until he wakes up around 8.30am. To add another feather to my cutie, two days ago he slept at about 10.30pm (last feeding) and only woke up at 9.30am the next day – with no feeding in between. Hahaha.. must have been too tired the day before. Of course Ryan still has the habit of tossing and turning in bed esp if the air-con is not cold enough. Now this is a problem here. Mr Lim can’t stand the cold, Baby Junior Lim sweats easily so this poor mummy is often stucked in between and frankly I actually also lost count the number of times I have to force my eyes to open with barely slit gap in the middle of the night so to adjust the air-con temperature and making sure the two babies are well covered. GGrgghh…

Anyways, back to Ryan’s tossing and turning.. somehow mummy and daddy has grown to be quite ignorant too and would usually try to settle him with a few pats to assure him we’re around. It is also through this we’re hoping he’ll soon learn to understand it is okay to wake up and fall back to sleep on his own without any feeding/excessive stimulation from us. Finger crossed. So far so good. :D

As mummy is typing this out, Ryan is already asleep since 10.30pm. Sweet dreamsss baby. Muaks muaks. I never failed to give Ryan goodnight kiss eventhough my baby is already asleep – a habit I’m trying to instill between our baby and us. Heehee.. just like Mr Lim would always give me a goodnight kiss before he dozes off (missed a few times because he was toooo tired already. Sob sob.. so tired meh Mr Lim? Anyways, forgive you la) and a goodbye kiss before he leaves for work in the morning (this never missed before). Yeakss.. very ‘yok ma’ hor. Heehee… Love my two babies.

Sweet Dreams Baby

@ 8 months 6 days

It was my company’s annual Xmas dinner last night. This year we had it at Shangri-la, my top favourite hotel. I just love the décor and ambience there and of course each time I’m there, it will kinda rekindle lots of sweet memories (hehehe.. Mr Lim and I had our wedding dinner there).

Nothing much to shout about the dinner, certainly no dressing up for the occasion – yeah… how boring right and adding salt to the wound I DID NOT WIN the grand prize which is a hand phone. Not that I need a hand phone now but who would mind an extra one right? But but.. I did win some shopping vouchers and cash through lucky draw and quizzes. So, there is consolation prize afterall.

When I reached home around 11.30pm last night, my baby was already in his dreamland. Ooh… miss you cutie pie.
