Join us on the adventures of Caleb,Phoebe & Prisca :)

Caleb's favourite person

Baby Caleb has been grouchy the entire week .... based on the info that i gathered from my mum and from the days that I had to take care of him...

Just last weekend, he was such a sweet baby - smiling and talking to me and has no problem falling a sleep ...

this week, we noticed that he cries more and sleeps on a less frequent routine ...

on thursday nite, he cried till his head shaked and almost lost his voice ... no amount of hugs, carrying, walking around the house helps ... i carried him and stood in front of the divine mercy pic at home ... he stopped crying for a while but resumed again ... told myself to keep my cool (yea, coz daddy is attending his RCIA)... in the end, i put him in his sarong and he fell a sleep ... phew ... it has been a long time since he cried so badly ...

friday nite, we wanted to go out with friends to chk out some bridal stuff and so, xp, sk and me drove to clementi ... along the way, baby caleb just cried all the way ... sweat for my friend who has to sit behind to look after him ... he was alright after she carried him out of the car and daddy took over ...

saturday afternoon, he also cried like mad ... and i am unable to console him ... guess who came to his rescue - his dad ... once he is in daddy's strong arms, it seems like a blanket of peace fell upon him ... he would look at his daddy and stopped crying ...

hmmm, at least there is someone who can comfort him ... BUT HEY! i am the one waking up to feed him and now, he just likes his daddy ... :P

same thing happened on sunday afternoon ... i guess he was feeling hot ... coz after papa carried him and put him on the bed with the wind blowing at him, he is ok ...

hmmm ... so now i need to read his cries more carefully - is it a cry of hunger, sleep or hot?

also, maybe it was something i ate that causes him to be so grouchy, can't fall a sleep ...

Sleeping Caleb

brought Caleb to church yesterday as papa kwee had to facilitate a session ...

baby caleb was sleepy but couldn't fall asleep on his own ...

so i had to put him in the sling and walked around for a while before he fell asleep ...

he is really a darling ... he slept from 3pm, woke up for his feeds ... during communion, father t blessed him and he fell back to sleep again ... and he continued sleeping all the way till 9pm ...

even after i put him back to bed, he continued to sleep, waking up for his feed ...


p.s with a baby like him, i dun mind having number 2 ... hahah but not so soon yet ... :P



He likes to look at his hand, especially when he is wearing this giraffe's mittens

Caleb at 2 months

Our little darling is 2 months old :) and I am going back to work ... hmmm, I am going to miss the days of doing nothing but just look/play with little Caleb and nuaing at my mum's house ...

here's caleb at 2 mths ... he has discovered the 'joy' of eating his fist(s)... but if he is hungry, he will still scream his head off to demand for food ... hahaha

his progress ...

hair is growing (esp the top part)

still want to seek attention - hates to be left alone (a while is ok but if any time longer than 10 mins, he will eh eh eh again)

diapers - sitll will eh eh eh/get grouchy and unable to take his morning nap ...

drinking - going haywire ... sometimes, one feed can take up to 3 hours ... my mum and i are keeping our fingers and toes crossed that he won't take after my eating/drinking habit (yes, i took a long long long time to chew my food and drink my milk ....)

night time - i will try to feed his last feed at 12 mn when he is sleeping ... think this is called dream feeding ... discovered this accidentally and realised that he can sleep till the next morning abt 5 am ... but becoz i am expressing milk, i need to be up at 4 plus to standby *bumpers... :P

more interactive now ... will 'talk back' when we talk to him :)

day time, sleep in his sarong ... night time, sleep in his cot ...

head is still flat on one side though ...

respond (smiling happily) to daddy when daddy carries him or look at him or call/talk to him ....

allows us to bath him when we take his top off ... :)
