Gathering at Aunty Ivy's Place

Yestersday, mummy rented an exersaucer from aunty Jennifer. They came to our place to install the exersaucer. As usual it is something new to me so I'm okay when mummy first put me into the exersaucer.

When mummy tried to put me in the exersaucer the second time, I can't control but cry non-stop. Grandma carry me out but mummy put me in again. This time, I cry even harder and louder with tears rolling down my cheeks. Mummy tried to calm me down by coaxing me. But I just don't like it. I want to get out of the exersaucer, Mummy, pls?

Everyone was upset by my cries and keep blaming Mummy for causing it. Daddy had no choice but to call Aunty Jennifer requesting for a refund. Initally, Aunty Jennifer tried to persuade Daddy to let me try a few more times. If I really hates it than we can do a refund the next day.

Daddy agreed to let me try the next day morning. But who knows, after an hour, grandma put me in again. Daddy tried to play with me and entertained me with toys. But after a few seconds, I started crying again. Daddy, Mummy and Grandma, will you guys please don't put me in the exersaucer again. I don't like it there!!! I want freedom!!!

That night, I had nightmares. I keep waking up every hour too seek comfort. With that, Daddy and Mummy decided to return the exersaucer the next day.

Aunty Jennifer's place was so far from ours and Aunty Ivy's place. Imagine Daddy carrying that bulky exersaucer while Mummy take care of me. Tough on Mummy as she hasn't been feeling well lately.

The weather hasn't been kind to us. It was raining quite heavily and Mummy had to carry me in her arms. It took us 1.5 hrs to reach Aunty Jennifer's place at West Coast Drive. By then. it's around 2+pm. If Daddy and Mummy were to travel to Aunty Ivy's place at Pasir Ris Drive, it will take another 1-2 hrs time. It will definately be a hectic day for everyone especially Mummy. So after much consideration, Mummy decided to give Aunty Ivy's place a miss.

So sorry mummy, I made you miss the gathering at Aunty Ivy's place. But Mummy I really don't like the idea of being put in the exersaucer. I don't like to be restricted!!!

Hopefully there will be another gathering soon...

Updates of Baby J

Baby J has been very cranky these few days... All thanks to his 2 little teeth trying to emerge from his gum. His appetite has been affected too.

Sitting, standing and lying down with toys beside him can only keep him entertained for a short while. Now he enjoys jumping and of cos looking at his surrounding. Helping him to stand on his feet proves to be tedious. But Mummy was surprised at Baby J's progress. He can stand still for more than 10 seconds at this age now. His kicks are very powerful and strong, thus painful to those kanna kicked by him. Thou he has not show any sign of wanting to crawl yet.

His curiousity is increasing day by day. Trying to grab or reach for anything within his sights especially Mummy's 1L water bottle. Poor tigger has also become his "munching" favourite passtime. Perhaps due to tigger's skinny size, it is easy to put into his mouth.

Frequent night wakes to seek comfort has become a routine which is tiring for both Daddy and Mummy.

Will the 2 little teeth appear soon, pls? This is to allow the return of baby J's appetite and the reduce of frequent night wakes for comfort.
