My Son My Alarm Clock

It's been a couple of months, my son now is now my alarm clock. Just don't understand, no matter whether it is 8.00 pm, 9.00pm or 11.pm...he still wakes up at 6.30pm without fail. You might think he must be hungry but I can assure you that he wakes up and turns cranky....asking me to wear my specs and go out to the livingroom so he can start his running around.

Ditching his Stroller...

JinYu have already ditch the stroller many months back. From then he either leading me on a walk around the shopping or carrying him which makes me tired. He might be small but carrying for a long time sure give me a back ache after that. But you will be amazed at how many time little JinYu will stop and check out things. Even a tiny little thing on the floor, he is able to spot it. They sure have a better eye sight.

And sometimes, I call this hyperactive...running around alot until it does drive me crazy. But it is definitely an exciting journey for him to do his checkout. 

BPA Free - Why Now Why Not Before

As a parent, we all wanted the best for our child. Why NOW! until today! 

I just don't understand some companies that have been making bottles for so many years and did they not know when they are manufacturing this bottle with this BPA does harm our little ones we love. I dare to say there is a few good brands like Avent and Dr. Brown is not yet BPA free. 

If you find your existing bottles cracked, scratch or dented...do not use it anymore for the safety of your child, throw it away! Never even save it for the next child of yours. Read the instructions on the packing, do not just open and throw (which i believe most of us do)

Today it is about making $$$, technology improves but health safefy is neglected. Until something happen then only this companies will take immediate action

Just look at the dairy products from China before and now bottles from US and UK. Protect your child now. Don't just buy for the sake of the brand. We have to be a smarter consumer and as the choice is in our hand.

Info below is taken from wikipedia

Bisphenol A, commonly abbreviated as BPA, is an organic compound with two phenol functional groups. It is a difunctional building block of several important polymers and polymer additives. With an annual production of 2–3 million tonnes, it is an important monomer in the production of polycarbonate.

Bisphenol A has low acute toxicity, with an oral LD₅₀ of 3250 mg/kg in rats,^[9] but it is an endocrine disruptor.^[10][11] Low doses of bisphenol A can mimic the body's own hormones, possibly causing negative health effects.^[12] There is thus concern that long term low dose exposure to bisphenol A may induce chronic toxicity in humans.^[13][14][15]

I'm not a Sucker Yet

Pardon me as i am not trying to be rude here.  He is sure not a sucker...we can see many kids are already drinking from bottles that comes with straws...

This photo above is taken when he is around 19 months old. 

He yet to know how to drink(suck) from the straw even though we have tried with Ribena or some fruit juice. He only bites the straw with his 16 pieces of teeth...(even the doctor say he has too many teeth grown at his age).

He is just not yet a sucker or he is lazy. He still prefers drinking from his bottle, or drinking from the cup but he spills the water more than drinking...

Anyone has better idea?!

Helpful JinYu

JinYu was giving his great grandma a push on the wheelchair @ KLCC. After that we complimented him with a ride with Paddington Bear.

Manchester United Baby Fan @ Musikhaus

Our Sunday outing, JinYu goes for his brain developement classes @Musikhaus every Sunday that starts at 10.30 am. Driving all the way to Damasara near the Curve/Ikea side. Today was Daddy's turn to accompany and guiding JinYu thru the class with Ms. Lee while Mommy is chatting with Ms. Dom on JinYu's performance. We believe every kid will only concentrate on a particular thing if they are really interested or want to explore in it.

Little JinYu is more into music as he pay more attention listening and watching how Ms. Lee is playing the instruments, interaction with the ball by bouncing and kicking and if anything new...he definitely cocncentrate like today there was Ms. Lee blowing bubbles and all the kids was excited and popping every bubbles blown out.And we notice that whenever it comes to story book time, he will be struggling with us. 

There is some of the kids that have been attending the classes since they were 6 months old. (i know some parents might think that it is too young to get them to learn or waste of money) But you really do see the difference in the kids that have gone thru the system and those haven't like JinYu. They really sit down quietly, more focus and participate well. Their parents must be relieved that sending their kid to this brain development at an early age turns fruitful. 

* Finally Ho JinYu is able to wear the Manchester United Jersey Baby Kit, thank you so much Aunty Rachel & Uncle Bradley Tan

JinYu @ Musikhaus

JinYu is already about 16 months old. Before we decide to get him into Musikhaus, we put him on a trial class at Musikhaus.

Hopefully the brain development courses can help stimulate JinYu's mind by exposing thru music, reading and some games.

* Responsive parenting encourages baby to use his fledgling skills to communicate and initiate interaction. By responding to your baby's expressions, gestures, and sounds, you support his efforts to make things happen.
