Jayden’s Playground

You arched your back, turned to the side and flexed your elbows when you are sleepy, warm or uncomfortable. This is how you let Mama and Papa know that you are frustrated or angry when thing doesn’t go your way. We have to quickly set you down on our shoulder tightly or walk around airy places whenever you raged out of control.

This can be overwhelming. So we will always hold you tightly in our arms when it happens.

Virtually all babies go through this phase. We’ll go through this together with you…

Ohhh! I’m so popular, even in foreign country ;D

You have your own way of telling Papa and Mama that you are sleepy. You will continuously rub your eyes several times. The moment you feel uncomfortable, you will arch your body back. Papa and Mama have to grab you so tight to avoid you falling backwards.

I’m doing shopping! ^_^

Peek-A-Boo is your favorite game now! Whenever we re-appear from the kitchen/room or behind a book etc, you will bang your hands on the serving tray or kick your legs with excitement. You chuckled and laughed so much that you let out a cry in your sleep these few nights. =(

Jayden, Sleep Tight! Papa and Mama love you so much!

That’s you looking into the camera. You must be wondering what that little red thingy that Mama is using. =)

Other than Sundays that Papa needs to work, Papa and Mama made it a point to bring you to swim.

We went to swim at ard 11am today. Later than the previous time because we woke up late, at ard 9am.

The pool was empty when we reached. There was no other children in the pool. You don’t look as excited as the first time. Probably because there are no babies of your age or no other children. You swam in the little dolphin float. Mama brought you round the pool.

You were engrossed with playing with the little water fountain in the middle of the pool.

Papa likes to toss you in the air. And you like Papa to turn back to look for you. You always break into laughter when he does that. Guess this is 1 of the ways that you bond with Papa.

You are growing up so fast each day! Papa and Mama hoped your 7 months with us have been joyable so far.

Your sucking instincts were so strong last night. You sucked hard on anything that you got hold of.

Papa called you a ‘Suckling Pig’! Cos you were born in the Year of Pig! Hahaha… Papa must be feeling hungry.

It has became a daily ritual to visit the playground every evening. You always kick your legs with excitement when you see the children running around the playground. You chuckled out loudly when you see children playing on the swing.

When you sat on the dinosaur, you pushed and kicked to rock yourself. So amazing that you have this instinct once we put you on the dinosaur.

We went Ikea with Gong Gong & Yi Yi. Had our usual food at the Ikea food court.

You must have enjoy the air con so much. You slept the moment we walked into Ikea till the time we reached the car park to collect xiaobai.

Jayden, you have been sticking out your tongue recently. You seem to realize that the tongue is used to taste foods and objects.. =)
