2nd month Afterparty!!

The bubs turned 2 months old 2 days ago, 7th June. We decided to have a little celebration. Well, not really, but we decided to head out to eat and what better place than the new Marina Bay Sands!

Oh boy is that place huge! We walked about for a bit, really didn't feel like you're in Singapore. Really posh, and really expensive! Haha. I remember looking at all the different boutiques and imagining the day i walk in. heh. :p We settled on dining at Rise Restaurant, which is part of the hotel i believe. AMAZING selection of desserts for the buffet. I literally OD-ed on them, so much so, i felt i needed to puke if i ate any more panna cotta. :/

So we got home and changed Kiara and got her ready for bed, but the little lady decided she wanted to stay up. And boy did she really want to stay up! So for her 2nd month birthday, she held and afterparty. ALL THE WAY TILL 5AM!!!!

She didn't want a feed, her diaper was nice and clean and definitely not colic either. You learn after a while to differentiate your baby's cries. From hunger, to a wet nappy etc. And she she cried, or more like shouted, she just wanted attention. So we tried and tried, cradled her, cuddled her, swaddled her, sang her songs. You name it, we did it! She just didn't want to sleep. Sham and I were beyond exhausted! Finally, she decided she wanted a feed and fell asleep. Same time clubs in Singapore close, that was the same time our little munchkin decided to snooze. At 5am!

Guess it's bound to happen every now and then. Now thinking back, guess she just wanted to 'party' for her 2nd month birthday. :) Here's the pretty dress i made her wear for her special occasion. $35 from MotherCare. Should have remembered to put a bow on her head! :(

Here's a couple of pictures of her. She's more smiley now. Giggles and 'talks' alot! Oh i know she's just gonna be such a chatty girl. Then again, which girl isn't? :p

One of the positions she sleeps in. My little silly girl.

 

Well it's extremely late, was doing some work because it's the only time i get to when Kiara is having a long sleep. Going to tuck into bed next to my little girl and my better half. Kiara sleeps with us, only because it makes breastfeeding easier! Mastering how to breastfeed lying down is the best! That way i still get to snooze while she feeds! :)

"Close your eyes, go to sleep,
mr sandman is waiting,
just to guide you on your way,
with his basket full of dreams
and the moon, up on high
shines his light on your pillow
and the stars, in the sky
will be twinkling for you."

A baby brewing, again?!

I can't thank the people who have followed my blog from the get-go for all your words of encouragement and love. Thank you for pushing me to write again. It warms my heart to hear when my readers tell me they enjoyed reading my journey and somehow felt like they were right there with me too. Big love to you all.  Here i am sitting down and staring at the screen. I feel rusty. I haven't done this in a while. My last post was, well ages ago! But - hello! Seeing as i set up this baby blog of mine some 6 years ago, i felt it is only right that i continue writing in it seeing as, as most of you would know by now, i am baking baby number 2 in the oven! I'm in the last leg of my pregnancy now. I'd call it the 'uncomfortable' stage.  Where you feel like a whale,  your legs are sore,  your body's aching and the baby is kicking like there's no tomorrow.  But,  kicking is good.  Kick away baby,  so momma knows you're growing well.  So let's ...

New Paper New Face 2011

Hey! Today, i bring you news about this year's New Face competition! :) For those of you who don't live here in Singapore, the New Face competition is one of the biggest modeling competitions held here. It had unearthed beauties from all walks of life and many of whom has made quite a name for themselves in the industry. It has helped so many girls shine and achieve their goals, and i am glad to say, i made it to Top 20 last year and have graduated to the very prestigious alumni of New Face girls. :) Every year since i joined the modeling industry, i entered a competition, to better myself and gain confidence. I remember i started off with Singtel Grid Girls back in 2008 and not having much confidence at all. But the New Face competition was something i had wanted to join since the age of 15. It took me another 2 years, to build up that confidence to go to the walk-in auditions and i am glad i did. (Spot me if you can!) It has been such an amazing experience for me, i learned s...

Baby Recipe: Chicken & Carrot Porridge [Plus Storage Solutions]

This is probably one of Kiara's favourite dishes and i believe many asian kids too! It's easy peasy to make and tastes delish! What you'll need: Minced Chicken Diced Carrots Rice (Brown Rice if you want the healthier choice) Bovril (optional) Garlic (optional) Chicken Stock (optional)   For all the items that i stated as optional, it's really up to you which you would prefer. Some would rather skip bovril & garlic and just use chicken stock, where as some would do the opposite. So that part is really up to you how you would like your baby's food to be. I personally have used all 3 methods and Kiara likes them all the same. Step 1 : Add rice and carrots into a pot of boiling water (or boiling chicken stock). You can add  finely chopped garlic if you would prefer to add more flavour to the dish. I let this simmer in for about 15/20 minutes till the carrots are relatively softer. Plus rice takes a while to cook too! Once done, add in your minced chicken which cooks...
