Finally Moving Forward

Phew, after some time of moving backwards, ReAnne is finally learning to move forward!!

I think very soon she will be crawling around the house le.

We are getting prepared for that!!

ReAnne Rolling Over

Now she can roll over in 2 ways already!!

5th Mth Assesment

Over the weekend, we brought ReAnne to the PD for her injection again. She is 6.725kg and 62cm now. Her growing is slightly below average!! Arragh, even though she is having her supper regularly doesn't seem to help her to grow more!!

The PD said she is slightly below average but maybe also because she follows the geneatic of us, like me!! Oh no, I don't want my ReAnne to be a Shortie!!! She is so much shorter and slimmer compare to Reia Jie Jie who is 67cm, 7.2kg in her 5th Mth!!

Next time must make her jump 100 times everyday to grow taller! Wahahaha

Thumb Sucking

Why it happens
Toddlers suck their thumbs because it's comforting and calming. Your toddler probably practiced this habit while he was still in the womb and perfected it as an infant. Now he may turn to his thumb when he's tired, scared, bored, sick, or trying to adjust to challenges such as starting preschool or going on a long car ride. He may also use his thumb to fall asleep at bedtime and to lull himself back to sleep when he wakes up in the middle of the night

So at this moment we will not stop her from sucking thumb! Hmm actually is we cannot stop her.

Anyway but we will try to limit her sucking only when she is tired. Hopefully is easier to kick this habbit when she is older!

Learning to Crawl!

"Along with all the other milestones of infant growth, there is one that puts babies on the move for the first time - crawling. Where once Baby was immobile, content sitting and exploring what was within his reach, suddenly a whole new world opens up: the world of mobility."

Our little princess is learning how to crawl now. Initially, she will wiggle her body to turn 360 degree. And now, she can crawl but ........ Backward!?!?

"Crawling backward is probably the result of uneven muscle tone (arms a little stronger than legs), but that will soon right itself as Baby progresses in developing gross motor skills. They will soon shift from reverse to forward on their own with no intervention from parents. As long as they get moving in some way, they are perfectly normal, no matter which direction they choose to go first." (Quoted from Huggies website)

And now, I will be busy carrying her back to her playmat as she keeps crawling out of it now!! Hopefully this little princess can figure how to move forward soon.

She also kind of love to be on tummy and lift up her hands and legs. She enjoy doing it. At first she needs 1 hand to support but now she can lift it high for a few seconds!! Just like what is shown on the pic.

Not sure why she is doing this. Maybe she want to rock herself when she can lift long enough?? Let's wait and see.

Last but not least is a pic of her trying to crawl!!

睿恩:"我的屁股跟我妈咪的一样翘吧!!" =P

ReAnne's Own Entertainment

This gal has been own entertaining herself with her new found!!
She might have learnt it while we blow on her when we are playing with her.

Who does ReAnne Look Like?!

Since birth of ReAnne, there is always alot of debates who does ReAnne look like. Both of us have our own supporters but who does she really look like?
Hmm, I come across this look-alike meter in a blog and decided to give it a try.
After trying a few different photos of 3 of us, the results are all the same!!
