WW :: Ready for Raya

He's Crawling!!

He started being on all fours a couple of weeks ago. And has since escalated to rocking every opportunity he gets. And rocking.. And rocking.. 

I have begun to think that he's never going to crawl because he seems to like to rock so much! :P 

Anyway, he did! Today~ at EJean's place pulak tu. Memang show off! Hahaha.. 

Still not a pro yet, and most of the time he does it only if there is enough motivation. Like wanting to grab the remote or anything the Kakaks are holding / reading / playing. Yeah.. I can see where this is heading. 

I suspect come Raya, we're in for so much fun (read with sarcasm please!) :P

Post Mortem :: 1 week Ramadhan

:: sleep is an indulgence. between getting J to sleep (which is late) to intermittent wake-ups by Amir and waking up for sahur. daytime naps are not helping though as weird dreams seems to disturb the sleep. wake up feeling more tired.

:: solat terawikh checked although buat kat rumah je.

:: Aliah had a gastric attack on 2nd Ramadhan. Hence, 2 hari tak puasa.

:: Jannah has not grasp the puasa concept at all.

:: been to the PaRam twice so far. Alhamdulillah membeli tanpa membazir. And food was good too.

:: syukur that I am a SAHM now, else logistics for Aliah and Jannah to and from school would have been a nightmare. Lagilah traffic this Ramadhan seems to be at its worst.

:: mood memasak kurang this time around as am only cooking for 2. Hubby is on a diet program and can't eat almost everything. Haha. But Alhamdulillah he has lost 3.4kgs so far. Not bad for a week's job.

:: kids raya clothes are almost all set. But still have not scout around for Amir's songkok and sampin. Perlu? Ke abaikan?

:: brestfeeding this Ramadhan has been good so far. Masih cukup. Plus Amir eats 3x a day and mostly drinks at night when replenishments can be done. Water. Lots and lots of water. I also believe the fenugreeks work. Again, mind over matter this. :)

WW :: Budak Baik

... kerana dia duduk diam je masa orang solat terawikh :) 

One Month+ Weaning

Taken from wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com

Much as it irks the paed, I am sticking to taking it slow and steady in introducing food for Amir. For the first month or so, he was totally on fruits & veg. And only when he started eating three times a day did we introduce oats. (we tried brown rice, but was fiercely rejected by the little guy)

The introduction phase was with fruits. And we started with apples and pears. And then added bananas to the mix. Avocados is still a volatile option, only taken with bananas. The first veg was sweet potato which Amir loves. To date, give him a sweet potato meal and it will never be enough! He's also tried carrots and potatoes. 

Once a day meal lasted for a week. Haha. He was thaaaat receptive towards eating. And then it was twice a day, one for breakfast and one for dinner.

When he turned 7 months, I tried brown rice. And was rejected. Haha. So tried oats, and he loved it. But cannot la eat oats je kan, kata Melayu kena la makan nasi gak. So tried again rice this week, and was rejected again. Hahahaha. Ah well, like my BFF pointed out - he's gonna have his whole life ahead of him of rice eating. Btw, he loves his oats with any fruit puree.

So as per the listing, these are the things he has eaten to date;

Apples

Avocados

Bananas

Nectarines

Peaches

Pears

Prunes

Pumpkin

Carrots

Cauliflower

Potato

Sweet Potato

Oatmeal

Rice

Not bad eh?
