Tooth Fairy visits again

Tooth Fairy has returned to plant another upper tooth for little Caryn. Yippee, now she has 2 - 1 upper & 1 lower. The lack of teeth, however, doesn't hinder her from eating solids.. yes! She loves the food that is dished out from JieJie's bowl :-) Somehow other people's food is always more tasty, huh?

Saying pa & ma sounds

One evening after I came home from work, I greeted my little darling who was sitting on the stroller, and I turned to walk back to my room. She surprised me by yelling "ma.. ma" loudly. I would love to think that she's calling me.. How sweet!

Now that she can crawl, whenever I put her down near me, she would crawl towards me & tried to grab me to stand up. I felt good that she wanted to be with me although I don't get to spend alot of time with her.

Another happy moments is when she sees JieJie bath. Yeah.. the curious little gal just likes to be around JieJie. She loves to look at the mirror in the bathroom, at the other baby who smiles back at her.

Caryn crawls on fours at 7.5 months

She's a fast developer physically as she started to crawl on all fours at 7.5 months.

Watch her here:

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..!
