Oh, here's a photo of mommy and vio with Caitlyn. Lately Vio likes to make ugly faces, I think he learns it from his friends at school :(  You can see that he purposely make his eyes to look all white :(

Caitlyn's First Hair Cut

This is a belated post..

When caitlyn was 39 days old, she had her first hair cut! We didn't plan to shave all her hair until all botak, but what we had in mind was to cut it very short until almost botak.

Nai2's friend was helping us to cut the hair. But she insisted that it'snicer if wejust cut a little bit so it will grow nice when it'slonger.. Hmmm.. So in the end, only a bit of her hair was cut. She didn't really look like she has cut herhair.. Lol..

I guess we'll cut herhair short ourselves when she's no longer so crybaby :p

Statistics

Finally, a light at the end of the tunnel!

For the last few days, caitlyn's colic is getting better! She no longer cries uncontrollably for few hours! She still cries, but its more of normal baby cry, not the hysterical one.. Phew! I hope those periods are really over!

"Buy?"

Vio's way of thinking is getting more and more logical each day. Sometimes it's amazing to see how much he actually understands things and knowing how to reply to our questions.

When his favorite soft toy (hippo) was being washed and not there to accompany him in the bedtime, pi was asking him:
Daddy: vio, where's hippo?
Vio: swimming
Daddy: huh? Swimming? Where?
Vio: in the bathroom
Daddy: Huh? Show daddy!

Vio then quickly ran to the bathroom and pointing to the pail, saying "there! There!" And hippo was really there, swimming in soapy water inside the pail! What a smart boy..

His fave word lately is "buy?" lol.. when we don't have something that he was asking for, he'll ask us to buy for him! Tsk! I wonder who teach him that..
Vio: tennis ball mana?
Mommy: we don't have tennis ball
Vio: buy? (with hopeful tone)

And he can talk few short sentences at 1 go to. Fo example, when I'm playing with him and Caitlyn is sleeping in her day bed, but starting to move and about to cry. So I'll rock the daybed and hoping that shell sleep again. Vio will be upset and say "mommy, baby still sleeping! No disturb baby!"

Colic

Seriously, having a colicky baby is not fun.

Sadly, that's what we're having now... For the last 3 days, Caitlyn has cried soooooooooo LOUDLY starting from 7 pm with no apparent reason. And it's almost unstoppable. And it can last for hours. *sigh* 

We've went to the paediatrician to ask about this (and at the same time, also for her jabs and Vio's last jab). According to the PD, seems like Caitlyn has a rather bad resurgitation (milk being spit-up again). No wonder she's been a crybaby and always seem to be unhappy most of the time. Apparently it's because the milk is stuck at her throat, and some will also be spit out of her mouth. Poor poor baby... She must be feeling so unwell.. :(

According to the PD, this is caused by the formula milk she's been drinking... So he suggested us to change the formula milk to hypo-allergenic one. Well, the best of course if she can be breastfed totally, which is what I'm working on right now. We've reduced her formula milk intake and try to total breastfed her. Hopefully she's getting enough! Quite worried that she's not getting enough. Seems like she looks a bit happier after that. More smile on her face and lesser cry.. If she's not getting enough milk, she should be crying all the time, hor? Hmm...
