Baby buys and updates

new toy!

Picked this little gadget up at the Phillip carnival sale yesterday because Lucas is starting solids next month. $159 with free bolster and pillow, avent beginner eating set, thermal carrier and sipper cup! Am really excited about introducing him to normal food! But this will also mean more logistics when we head on out. 

"Daddy I can feel your perspiration..."

We've also started baby wearing. Most of the time he looks pretty comfy with Daddy Chua but Singapore's weather is not too baby wearing friendly. An hour walkabout will result in perspiration soaked shirts for the 2 men in my house. Poor things... Our carrier of choice is the Todbi 3D-Style Plus which we are absolutely loving because Lucas can sit comfortably on the hipseat and there'll be no additional pressure on his groin.

New addiction!

Had our first "sanum" experience on Saturday and OMG I'm dying for more! Stupid overpriced yogurt with the sinful toppings. I contemplated reproducing this myself to save money but I succumbed to the queue because the thought of buying over 8 ingredients to make this made me cringe. 

Hair growing potion

I recently won a bottle of this hair lotion from a contest held over at a fellow mummy's blog and have since applied it religiously to Lucas's balding head in an attempt to make his hair grow. Lucas's hair has been shedding since he was 3 months old because we chose not to shave his head after the first month. Over the past 2 months, I was disturbed by the amount of hair I was sweeping up from his cot, his day rocker and at the bottom of his shower tub. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this lotion (which smells amazing by the way) works! 

Many exciting things coming up for the rest of the year, starting with my big 3 celebration. Am so not looking forward to it!
