Introduced to my first bottle of formula milk

Coming to 11 months old...
Mummy reluctantly introduced formula milk to me...
As breastmilk supply has decreased and we hardly have any storage in the fridge...
anyway it is also about time to gradually introduce...as I always cannot sleep through the night without asking for more milk...

Mummy initially was a little sad when she saw how happy I was when offered the bottle of formula milk... ...

happy
I cannot wait to drink it...
open for me!
reaching for the milk
give it to me!

trying to put me in a better position to drink the milk
first attempt to feed me the formula milk
to mummy's surprise, I pushed it away..
give me my FRESH milk!!

try some...
ended up I didnt drink it..

After the initial introduction, sometimes I drink the formula milk, sometimes I don't.
To prevent wasting the formula milk, (as it was always being thrown away when I don't drink it..) Mummy always make little and only add more if I want...

Sometimes I don't even want to finish 60mls...which is one scoop..

Mummy's voice: My 10 months old Baby Ayden


when I only had Baby Asher, I found him to be a happy & cheerful baby...
and people generally commented that too...
but that happy and cheerful side is often hidden behind his "aloof and cool" look...

However, now with Baby Ayden, I found him to be EVEN MORE happy & cheerful baby...
and people ALWAYS comment that too...
Baby Ayden is SOOOOOO super generous with his smile that he always wear it on his face...
with Ayden, there is never a long moment without flashing a smile...

my darlin...mummy hasn't been active in recording your milestones...this I must admit I am truely sorry about it...

I can remember you ... ...
beginning to crawl at 5 months plus...
having your central incisor - first pair of teeth (lower) at 6 months old...
having your central incisor - 2nd pair of teeth (upper) started erupting at 8 months plus...
beginning to reach for support upwards to stand at 7 months and strengthening through 8 months...
starting your attempts to walk a few wobbly steps holding on to our hands or support at 9 months plus...faster than we expected as we thought you seem to love crawling soOo much
begin yakking lots of recent...
beginning to demand for "adult food" and attention by making noise at 9 months...

breastfed from day 1, the minute you came out to this world
had your first taste of cereal solids at 5.5months old
had your first try of brown rice porridge at almost 8 months old
loves HEINZ jar foods, loves biscuits...
had your first try of adult food at approx 9 months old and never stop since then...
gave you your first bottle of Similac Formula at 10 months old (17th Oct 2010) but you rejected it totally after 1 sip...

though you have not been to as many places unlike Kor Kor Asher when he was a baby just like u...but you definitely have benefited in many other areas...
Like following Kor kor to the Play Gym every Wednesday, this is something Kor Kor only started at 2 and half years old!
Like going to play school, although you have yet to start ,but because ground work has been done for Kor Kor, so you will be able to start earlier too...
Like having a play mate and so much toys!
Like having sOoo much more space and a varied play home environment since few months old...
Like having Kor Kor Asher who dotes on you most of the time!

Most think and say that the younger one gets more "hand me downs" and lesser new stuffs...
On the contrary, I have definitely bought you Baby Ayden more new stuffs than when Kor Kor was a baby... ...

Anyway, I love you both lots till even a couple of hours out spent with friends, leaving both of you at home, makes me feel SO guilty!

10 months old baby!

10 months old baby...
one of my greatest past time is play time with my brother Asher Kor Kor...
unfortunately, sometimes he doesn't like to share his toys with me...
but sometimes I am the naughty one...hehe

Kor Kor's best friend is Thomas...he always need to hold on to Thomas...

playing together...somehow whatever Kor Kor plays with, I also want...
children are like that...
we find fun in fighting for the toys..

Kor Kor like to play with the gun...bang me and I play dead..
sometimes the adults are horrible...they leave me in the play yard...
and don't let me out...

now I can get out of the bath tub on my own...
but got to watch after me...because it is slippery..
we play at the gym...
we shower together sometimes...

sometimes we play together in the room before our nap...
we play cooking in the playhouse...
we go to Macdonalds after a swimming session
or after Kor Kor's music class...
I am curious about the potty....
poo poo ...
both watching TV ... seated inside the play yard...
I enjoy my bath time always

I love balloons
i love my brother
my first time playing with paint, exploring colors..
but it was at my neighbour's place...just next door...
:)
we have got great neighbours!

Walking walking ....

Now I always want to walk...but i still need help and support...
I am happy to be exploring everywhere on my legs and support that I don't crawl as much now...
and it looks like I am going to walk independently on my own real soon...

my first time at Gogo Bambini
I love bumping around the balls..
but comparatively I am less daring than
Kor Kor Asher back then who always seemed fearless..

Standing upright in my cot...
I am now able to move freely on my own with support

I will squat down and crawl then I will stand up and
walk when I get to somewhere with support.
Like in our new playhouse!
flashing my teeth!

see am standing by the playhouse..
I like to explore what's inside

supporting on Golden...
a visit to the West Coast Park...
I still need to be held by the hand..

my football session
i push the stool around to try walking

sometimes Golden and Silver are in the way...
but when they notice I am coming...they will give way to me... :)

our new teeter totter!
see saw up and down!

i like pulling my shirt all over the place..
i also like to stick my finger into my mouth
must be teething mummy says...

and I am always happy to eat!
Mummy says I eat non stop...

in the play yard...i pull to stand and walk around..

I love my new achievement!
