Wow it’s been two weeks since I posted an entry here … I don’t know what happened but it’s like when Sean turned 5 months old, there was also a switch that was turned on. A switch for waking up in the wee hours in the morning and not sleeping anymore. It’s been like that for the last two weeks that’s why I don’t have much energy to blog. I am very tired.
Just this morning after I fed him, he didn’t want to sleep anymore. He was moving around our bed, pulling his dad’s hair, leaning against me. All of a sudden he vomited, I think he threw up everything he just drank. We had to get out of bed to wash him and take the bedsheets from the bed as well. We didn’t go back to bed anymore and went to the living room since we know he was not going to sleep any time soon..he super active. We on the other hand are super sleepy. We put him to play in his playpen. His dad went to make coffee and I slept at the sofa…I don’t know what happened next.
My hubby said, brace yourself because this is just the beginning! More fun sleepless nights to come 
Hello! Welcome back to my blog :)
Look, look I can do push ups!
He just got his hair cut again, yep twice already in 5 months because he’s sweating so much with so much hair!
My little Prince Charming, I cannot believe it, you are Five months old already. You change so much everyday. I cannot even keep up with posting here the new little things you do. Let me see where to start, uhm okay there are times when you would scream on the top of your lungs while you look at our ceiling fan, I find it so funny! And times when you would just start babbling like you have a story to tell.
You started rolling over and you can move around in your playpen on your belly or on your back backwards ! Sometimes you would cry because you would get stuck in a corner and cannot move furthur. Once we put you in the middle, you are okay again.
Another thing that you started doing these past few weeks is that you started grabbing our mouths and sticking your little fingers in it. You also play with our face alot and sometimes you scratch us if I don’t keep your fingernails trimmed really short.
There are many things in your environment that interests you like the japanese umbrella hanging on top of our room or the dragonflies that fly around in the afternoon. You love licking everything that you find interesting which makes me really crazy because I am worried of the germs and what not you get when you lick these stuff.
I can’t believe that next month you will be half a year old. I can’t wait to find out what new things you will do!
New moms like me can be dreadfully paranoid about our babies’ development. We are always anxiously waiting for our babies to reach milestone after milestone. Each one hoping that her child will turn out to be the new Einstein or Mozart or the millennium’s greatest genius.
An essential factor in becoming successful in whatever field is exceptional language skills. One has to be able to speak eloquently and converse intelligently for one to be able to share his thoughts. And, of course, one has to have excellent comprehension skills to get the most out of various learning experiences.
There are plenty of products and programs that target early childhood development and that claim to boost a young child’s cognitive abilities. It can be quite daunting for a mom like me to choose which ones are suitable for my son and which ones would greatly benefit him. One program I came across with targets early language development.
Your Baby Can Read, a program designed by Dr. Robert Titzer, was created specifically for teaching young children to read by exposing them to language and reading early in life. I have heard many positive feedbacks about this reading program but there are also some who refute the effectiveness of the program. I guess I wouldn’t really know if it works or not until I try it firsthand. I’m hoping my baby would already be reading by the time he turns a year old. But if not, then I’ll still be glad we got to have plenty of bonding moments while going through the program.
It’s been 4 months since you came into our life. Your birth day is a life changing event! Our life has never been the same since you came ( no more eating leisurely…nowadays it’s all fast chewing – fast food because you might wake up any minute or you might cry if you are awake at the time because you don’t like laying in your baby gym anymore) .
I can still remember how afraid I was almost afraid to hold you thinking I might break your little body. I was afraid to leave you alone in your crib, even watching you as you sleep, checking every couple of minutes if you were still breathing ( I was scared to death of SIDS). And now fast forward – we are co sleeping, playing and talking and you are doing all kinds of antics like trying to escape from your mosquito net..
That all being said, just want you to know you are my sunshine! I love you!!
Sean, you just turned 4 months on April 7, same day as your Papa’s birthday. What time flies! If you ever read this one day, I want you to know that I am so happy to be your momma.
You are the cheekiest baby I have met. You have no idea how happy you make me feel every time I look at you! You are certainly one of the best things that happened in my life. At 4 months, you now weigh 6.5 kgs. Not much weight gain since your last weighing. You are heavy my baby boy but I don’t mind carrying you:) (for a few minutes) not too long though because Momma is gonna break her back if she continues carrying you around all the time !
and the sweetest baby boy! He’s 3 months plus a couple of weeks here and no he cannot really sit yet I had to make this picture really quick.
Sean didn’t like sleeping in his crib so we let him sleep on the sofa. In this picture you will see Sean trying to get out of his mosquito net
