4 Month's Mark

Eden is 4 months old and he has surely become more aware of the surroundings. Feeding him is still not all smooth as he will leave the last 30 to 60ml as the ultimate challenge. Even after cutting a slit at the teat didn't help to reduce the fuss. I wish this phase can pass soon.

He is also starting to make half turns so that means we need to be more careful when placing him on the bed. His neck is getting stronger so probably he will be able to turn/flip next month.

Lately he also drools a lot and loves suckling his fingers.... you can imagine the mess of saliva on his face, hands and on my shoulder too.

Feeding, entertaining, bathing, putting him for naps are pretty much the routine tasks which make my day pass really quickly.

Less than 3 months to go before I head back to my working / social life! Am I yearning for it or will I miss baby and Evans? Let's see...

But ultimately I hope that my parents would be able to manage the 2 cuties comfortably.

Baby Eden at 3 Months Plus

Baby Eden now is definitely more smiley and aware of the surroundings, so aware that he might get a little distracted during feedings. He has strong legs and he loves to kick and "jump".

Nowadays mornings are much more pleasant as he smiles at me readily when I greet him. This is so unlike the last months when he only cried once he opened his eyes as he just needed milk. Now he is starting to appreciate companionship and interaction.

He shows signs of fear when we enter the lift. He will look around and seems very alert but scared. But luckily he still holds it well. More exposure will help. We are also starting to bring him out more so that he is less "suaku". Lol.

His neck is not entirely strong yet, but is getting there. Then bro would be able to carry him. At least an extra help. Not giving Eden a lot of tummy time yet. But when I do, he flips like a prata... flat down and licking the mat. Lol. It's cute watching him stay at that position. Evans is very entertained. Haha!

Didi is more responsive to us calling out to him and will mostly smile sweetly. Make it less scary for me because at least, he is more "distractable".

Evans's 1st Movie Experience

Yesterday my brother took leave. He has earlier promised Evans to bring him for a movie. When Evans told me, I was wondering "Sure or not?". Evans has never stepped into a cinema before and he usually does not like loud sounds. So I was a little skeptical if he could stay throughout the movie. My brother was on to give it a try and even if that meant to leave the cinema before the movie ended.

But my concerns was not valid at all. Evans was perfectly ok with his first movie experience and he enjoyed it because he kept rattling about his experience non-stop. Even my brother also shared that he was talking non-stop at home. LOL! I am just glad he enjoyed himself with Jiu Jiu.

They watched "Finding Dory" at Plaza Singapura's GV theatre, 11.40am. I would think the movie should be interesting but my bro said it was rather boring. Evans said he almost dozed off at the beginning. Quite surprising for my bro to say that it was boring. I think I have been watching some Ellen show and it seemed that many were raving about the movie.

The boy is all about the train.

Can't wait!

 

In anticipation...

It is funny how my parents and I were excited about Evans's first experience that we messaged my brother "how was it", "was he ok", etc? 

After movie, Jiu Jiu brought Evans to Xinwang for a late lunch and Evans wanted to order the Pork Chop Spaghetti. Look at how he was enjoying himself.

He loves to flip at the menu

Somehow he looks like a baby in this photo, I love it. 

Sauce-covered face :)

Thanks to bro for testing it out and now we know we can bring Evans for a movie!!!
