Isabelle's First Fall

Today Isabelle fell off from the bed and landed on the floor boomph! I had a shock in my life and quickly ran towards her and carry her up from the floor. Kesian... she cried very loud.

I put her on the bed as usual after i finish dressing her up after her bath in the morning. I had pillows and bolster surrounding her to keep her from crawling towards the edge. Just a I turn and walk into the toilet, suddenly I hear the sound boomph! and she started crying. Poor Isabelle. I quickly carry her and sayang, then daddy carry her and sayang, then i carry again and then offer her milk and she slowly calm down and started drinking her milk. After finishing the whole bottle, she was ok already. Then she started smiling again. Tough baby. After this incident, I better quickly go home and set-up the playpen and any time when I need to walk away to do some work, I shall put her into the playpen.

First Solid

Isabelle had her first taste of solid food on 2nd April (Saturday). I gave her Nestle Rice Cereal mix with Similac Milk. She loves the rice cereal. This is also my first time feeding baby cereal. Very challenging indeed. End up the cereal is all over Isabelle's mouth and Bib :)

We have sent Isabelle to her new nanny on the following Monday 4th April. Nanny is a very friendly and nice women - Connie. I can tell that she's a very patient person and she loves kids. Thank god Connie is willing to accept Isabelle to babysit her, otherwise we will still be stuck with the old nanny. Everyday, Connie will note down in a paper all the feeding, sleeping, pooping activities for the day. This is a very good practice atleast I get to know what Isabelle goes through the day and how's her eating and sleeping habit.

This is a new recipe I made for Isabelle introducing Broccoli mix with rice cereal. Greens are good for babies too :). Lately nanny has given porridge blends with potato & carrot or potato & apple to Isabelle. Think she is enjoying all the new food.


Crawling engine starts NOW....

She's getting her engine started already. First it was just pushing her butt up, then the backward moving and now, she is going to master her crawling very soon. Only at 6 months old she's already started to crawl. Oh no! Nightmare for me and daddy to be chasing after Belle.









Nothing can stop her from getting where she wants to go :)

Naughty Belle trying out new pram

We were shopping at Cammyland for a new pram to bring to nanny's house (Nanny's request ). We saw the sale item so thought why not get Isabelle to try it out see if she likes it. This Isabelle is getting very naughty. Before we get to clip her up with the seatbelts, she's already slip down and end up with non-glamour pose.

Turn left Turn Right

Belle started to know how to roll over from her back to front and vice-versa when she was 5 months old. Daddy thought her how to turn both to left and to right. Now she has turn six months old, she can be rolling from one end to another end. Oh dear! Nowadays when I'm changing her diaper, I can't leave her on the bed alone for more than 5 secs. I just turn away and look back, she is already at the edge of the bed. Even changing diaper or changing clothes has become very challenging now that she always want to roll over and be on her tummy.





Belle & Daniel 
One of the usual Sundays where we have breakfast together with Sis, BIL and Mom. We hold both babies Belle and Daniel facing each other so that they can interact :) But Daniel very cool, he doesn't seem to be very much interested to play with Belle. Belle is always the one that makes her first move hehehe.




Langkawi Trip

We went to Langkawi for a short trip. With high anticipation to see how Langkawi is like, imagine that it would be similar to Phuket but end up big disappointment. There is really nothing much in Langkawi especially the town area. Definitely no reason to go back for second visit unless is a paid for trip.

Here's another video that I took - Belle laughing at Daddy's silliness.

Cybex Topaz

Hubby bought a new pram for Isabelle. He has done so much research on this brand and model and been waiting to get one since before Chinese New Year. Only until last week he finally got the pram from Baby Kingdom for RM799. Apparently Cybex is an award winning brand for best stroller :P

It was Isabelle's first time getting on this pram so I dressed her in red matching the pram's color :)

See how Isabelle blends in so well into the pram. Can hardly see her if it's not her beanie so stand out muahahaha


Looks like she's enjoying her new ride and getting comfortable in it


I put on another beanie on Isabelle to see if it looks nice on her. See how naughty she is. She pulled the beanie and now covered her eyes kekeke.



And this is how Isabelle looks without wearing a beanie.

Isabelle New Hair Style

Belle has her first new hair style when she's 4 months 21 days old. Now she officially look more like a baby boy. Her hair were falling so much until certain part of her head looks bald. So I decided to have her hair shaved so that her hair will grow evenly. Now she look like a lil monk :D






In another 1 weeks time Isabelle is going to be 5 months old. Time flies. Still remember the confinement days when Isabelle is still so small size. Now she's learning how to flip and turn on her tummy. Soon she will be crawling around and my days is going to me more tired chasing her.

Isabelle's Development in 4 months old :


Lift leg up and hands pull her feet to her mouth




Hold, take and put pacifier into her mouth



Now a days she can also flip and turn on her tummy but ofcause she still need some help from us to give her a little push. Her arms are not strong enough yet to push herself up and support her own weight.


Sadly, Isabelle still can't sleep through the night not waking. Every night, she will wake for maybe 3 or 4 times and she can't fall back to sleep on her own. I will need to get up, give her the pacifier and pat her to sleep. Sometimes even with the pacifier, she kind of have difficulty falling back to sleep. Her eyes is close but she keeps twisting, moving and can't settle to sleep. I'm very curious why is this happening. Is she hungry, wet diaper or just a habit. How I wish very soon she can sleep through the night without waking until next morning.
