Presenting…my 5 months rocker boy!
The month started on beautiful note. The 3 kiddos went on a morning walk together. Zen was walked by Nic. Boise was walked by Dad. And I strolled along with Dylan in my arms.
It was such a heartwarming sight. Such moments are meant to be captured by the eyes to be remembered forever. Dylan has started to recognise his caregivers and would lift his arms to ask to be carried by farmiliar ones. He has formed a habit of toe sucking! He tells us no no no – mainly to milk feeds – by signally with his hands. No one would believe me when I say he hides behind his blankie and tries to pretend sleep when we say milk time. That cutie can really get on my nerves sometimes!
Just look at how the little one interacts….
Grandma sings: Where did you go? Off to London and back?
小瓜: Ehh.
Grandma says: Happy?
小瓜: Umm.
Grandma says: Why sound so gentle? No one would have you could cry the entire house down!
…
AND 小瓜 chuckles…
He does have his grumpy moments too.
I would like to believe he is a chip off the old block…

Healthwise, he’s doing great except for his eye. PD alert us that the blocked tear duct in his left eye needs attention as the eye infections are happening way too frequently. We were referred to KKH and advised to do regular massage and cleansing. I do pray it goes away by a year old elses minor op is required. Cleansing his eye is always a pain. Dripping antibiotic drops is even worst. In the intial days, my cubby would blink and not remember what happened. Now that he is more aware, he absolutely abhores it!
Since this is a super belated post, I can’t really recall if there are milestones but one thing for sure. He’s going to turn out geeky. He stares intensely without blinking at the computer screen when my brother play games. He is learning how to stroke Zen the correct way. Let’s just say to reach perfection will result in loads of fur loss. We also took him for his first dip in the pool. Knees down though. Grandma refers to his bath as water play and the water is always warm. Thus the first time his feet touched the icy cool water, he was baffled. Later, he had a whale of time kicking and splashing. The feeling must be exhilarating. Lastly, the thing I remember most clearly is he gets excited at the sight of his BJORN carrier. It’s exactly like how the dogs react – less the tail wagging – when I hold a plastic bag in my hand.
Continue to rock my world, baby!
