Jaron's Full Moon

We had a celebration for Jaron's full moon on 17th Feb 2008. We had it at home for close friends and relatives. Jaron was especially quiet and slept through the whole the night. This is how he looks like now. I think that cartoon on his shirt looks like him. :)

Sketches

Some sketches of our baby. Hubby drew him crying which I think look exactly like him. That's his chinese name, Tan Hung Shen. I drew him mostly when he is sleeping and in 3 different styles.

Baby Handling Instructions

Some useful instructions for new parents. Hehe...

Who's the BOSS?

This little baby will not let us rest. Its hard work to make sure his needs are met. Even after having his milk, he won't go to sleep. We had to sing, carry him around or rock him to sleep.

Feeding time!

We're feeding Jaron with Mamex Gold from Dumex. And he needs to be fed every 2 hrs (more or less). He'll scream for his milk everytime. This little baby has got no patience.

Making faces

I just love watching him especially when he sleeps. He kept me entertained because even as he sleeps he'll be making faces. 2 weeks had passed by. Its a joy to watch him grow.
