Weighed K today. She weighed in at 5.1kg... that's like a sack of rice! No wonder I am starting to get backaches and wrist aches more frequently...
Had to change her out of her Newborn size Pampers last week cos her thighs got too big for them... We had used only half of the pack and tried persistently to use more, but we couldn't bear seeing the red angry lines around her thighs every time we changed her.
We tried to remove her mittens to let her discover her little fingers... and lo and behold, she "accidentally" found her thumb to suck on. Must have been quite a sight. Pity G and I were not around to witness it.
Some of the other things that she can now do:
- drools and makes saliva bubbles
- smiles, coos and gurgles
- expanded her vocabulary to include "Hi", "Hello", "let-go!", "Help", "Mama", "Cheh" and "Help Me", or what sounds like it
- babbles non-stop at times when Gwandpa talks to her or when she's out shopping with Mummy
- splashes and kicks while bathing (which happens to be her favourite time of the day)
- laughs out loud
- enjoys going on the many shopping trips I have brought her on, esp the part when I am picking out clothes from the racks and trying them on in the fitting room. Am I raising a shopaholic at a young tender age? Oh dear
- babbles to the spinning cot mobile and her friends, Mr Caterpillar and Mr Duck
- recognise familiar places and faces
- observe things around her
- smile a really cheeky grin and grown in a really unhappy manner
- sit up supported
- wail real loud (who said she was a little kitten?) when hungry or in discomfort
- fake cry for attention *rascal-ette in training*
