Natalie has reached a significant milestone today!
It's been a fulfilling and exhaustive first month, as we've been grappling with the new found status of parenthood. Transition to dad and mum is definitely a fulltime job that requires 100% TLC = Time, Love and Commitment.
So what are our greatest achievements thus far? We are proud to say that we have graduated with the degree in nappy changing. Chris has learnt how to fold and change nappies in record time of less than a minute (cleaning and application of desitin included). In his own words, "Anyone who likes to challenge me to a nappy changing session? Bring it on!"
As for me, my biggest discovery about myself is the possibility of requiring little sleep and still remaining functional the next day. This would not be possible esp on weekends prior to having natalie around. Theory about beauty sleep or ample rest has been erased since I started demand feeding. It's a tiring affair, but yet one which derives the most satisfaction when she gives you the cutest smile after 0.5 hour of suckling at 2am, 4am, 6am....( every 2 hours interval).
So what do we look forward to most in the upcoming months? Baby saying her first words - " I love mummy and daddy!".

Hi Littleone,
ReplyDeleteYou are 1 month old! In the lunar calendar, that is equivalent to 1 year old! So 19 Mar 2009 is your first Lunar Birthday! Daddy and Mummy have received many blessings on your behalf. They include multiple red packets, toys, BB clothes and gold pieces! Daddy will be depositing the money into your BB account shortly. You are one rich BB oredi!
Daddy needs to go back to work now but he will be thinking of you and Mummy k
Mucks!
=D
Hi Baby, Your Yiyi promised she'll bring you to Disneyland when you are older. Don't worry mummy will help you hold her to her words! For now, we'll just take a rain check. =)
