10 months!

Posted on 5 Apr 20105 Apr 2010   by CY

Hannah turned ten months old over the weekend in a mix of her usual cranky self and runny nose. The pinkish spots she had on her face are gradually subsidizing fortunately, if not completely gone. But since she caught that

Clash of the Titans

Posted on 3 Apr 201014 Mar 2018   by CY

Clash of the Titans (2010) – at AMK Hub. I’ve been wanting to catch this remake of the 1981 classic and been keeping my fingers crossed that it wouldn’t be a mess even when the first production photos showed a

Red Spots

Posted on 2 Apr 20105 Apr 2010   by CY

For the last 9.5 months now, Hannah typically wakes up on her own at about 7:15 AM every morning on non-school days, where she’ll coo to and play with herself first. That’s been a huge blessing we’ve been grateful for

Yummy Baby Foods: Salmon Porridge

Posted on 1 Apr 201019 Sep 2010   by Ling

After some trial and error with cooking solid food for Hannah at home, I have a small collection of recipes which worked (i.e. the dishes turned out to be delicious). They are so good that mommy steals a mouthful every

Sighs of Relief

Posted on 31 Mar 201031 Mar 2010   by CY

The both of us were pretty resigned to Hannah experiencing chicken pox earlier today, especially after hearing from friends and relatives, and also matching the pictures we were seeing online versus what we were seeing on Hannah. I mean, this

They come in twos

Posted on 30 Mar 201030 Mar 2010   by CY

I was at a meeting at work just before noon when I received calls from a phone number I haven’t seen before. No thanks to all those nuisance calls from banks and insurance companies I get all the time trying

Self Service – Part 2

Posted on 29 Mar 20103 Apr 2018   by CY

Last year in December I did a short post on Hannah feeding herself with a Pigeon sippy cup, but funnily we didn’t really create many opportunities for her to do the same again since then. So, the next time she

Yummy Baby Foods: Cream of Tofu

Posted on 29 Mar 201019 Sep 2010   by Ling

This healthy dish is really creamy. Hannah’s first experience with it was very positive. Be warned, your baby might get addicted as it is so smooth! Hee hee :P Here’s the recipe: Ingredients (serves 1 chinese bowl) Silken organic tofu

Discovering Baby Behavior – Part 2 – Feeding

Posted on 28 Mar 20105 Apr 2010   by CY

Though Hannah’s been ill over the last 2 weeks, there’s still at least one behavioral aspect that we’re still having a reasonably easy time in – and that’s feeding her. The pictures below basically show you what I mean: i.e.

Another visit to the PD

Posted on 27 Mar 20103 Apr 2018   by CY

Hannah has been down with a mild runny nose for two weeks now, and it’s been causing her to be more irritable than usual with the two main effects centered on more wailing for attention, and also somewhat harder feeds.

我不要干了!

Posted on 26 Mar 201026 Mar 2010   by CY

There’s a Chinese phrase that the both of us – ok maybe just me LOL – at home like to use to exhibit mock exasperation especially when we come home from work. It’s this: “我不要干了!”, and it’s enunciated as though

Going Nuts

Posted on 25 Mar 20103 Apr 2018   by CY

One marvelous thing about the 14-42mm kit lens on the E-PL1 is its macro ability, and minimum focusing distance of just 0.25m. While it’s still not quite enough for you to shoot bugs, it’ll be about alright for quick n’
