12 weeks old

Daddy made Koby smile at the camera
Koby's classic "blurrr" look
Koby is becoming more aware of his surroundings nowadays, including the family members. We are able to pacify him using a pacifier (last time he just refused), coax him to sleep with his favourite "Twinkle Twinkle Little Stars" song, he is able to sleep on the mattress instead of the yaolan at times...and drink his neh neh 3 hourly or so instead of 2-2.5 hours...

4 more days to 12 weeks




Koby taking his bath. As usual, ah ma is bathing for him. He is always in good mood after taking his bath nowadays and will giggle whenever we talk to him. Totally different when he was a newborn. Newborns never fail to cry during bath time.

Just when our little piggy's expressions are becoming more clearly defined (scream and giggle when teased), mommy will be going back to work after 12 weeks of maternity leave. sigh...kinda miss him though the inital weeks were really tiring looking after this baby who never seemed to stay still for one minute.

Will be engaging a maid to take care of him as mother-in-law couldn't cope. Maid will be coming in 2-3 weeks time. Fear that the maid may abuse him like the case reported in the news but we are not left with much choice as we want to see him after work everyday. The maid will also be staying with us...sigh...don't feel comfortable having a stranger in the house. Probably it wouldn't be so bad afterall. Keeping my fingers crossed...



This cutie-pie will spit water or milk after each feed... making our clothes stinky. He looked so adorable and innocent in this pic...who cares about those stinky clothes
