Caryn cuts her 1st tooth

Caryn's first tooth erupts at the bottom gums!

That may be the reason for her fever in the past few days, and her constant desire to bite something.

Fell sick for the 1st time

A day shy of turning 7 months, Caryn had running nose followed by fever. The running nose is likely to be spread from JieJie, who has been sick for past 4 days.

I bought her to Kidslink PD and had her weight taken.

What!? Only 6.43kg! A mere increase of 200g over 1 month. That's very little :(

Caryn Inches Forward


She's on her fours, ie hands & knees. She'll rock herself forwards & backwards in several attempts to move in front. So funny to see her doing that.

This morning, I saw her breakthrough! She was aiming to take something which I put in front of her. She managed to inch forward while on her fours :-) First, she moved her hand forward, followed by the other hand. Not being very stable, she dropped on the bed. Shortly, she was up on her fours again, and this time she moved her knees. Viola! She has moved forward! Happy for my little girl :-)

Jealousy


I came back from work in the evening and sat down at the dining table to eat my dinner. JieJie came over and wanted to sit on my lap. Caryn, who was seated in the high chair opposite me, broke into a cry after seeing me hug JieJie. She was jealous!


For the first time, I witness her jealousy. In her little mind, she had wanted me to carry her but I hugged JieJie instead. I'm kinda secretly happy that she wanted me, even though I spent so little time with her, as I'm away at work most of the day.

I find that I'm like the 'Father' while Auntie is like 'Mother', who is the main care-giver. As for her Daddy, he's like the 'Brother'! hahaa..!
