Eugenia first shopping trip...

29th Jan 2008 (Tuesday)

Mummy and I went shopping with Auntie Christina, Auntie June and Jie Jie Hannah at Vivo City! Auntie Christina brought her pram along for me! Mummy bought a beautiful red floral dress and a pair of matching shoes for me to wear on Chinese New Year from Gap.

Mummy saw some real nice glass tables, but in the end she decided to learn "how to choose one" first before deciding. Check out the link to learn how...

Taking care of baby tip: Make sure any clothing you purchase allows easy access to the diaper, so there is minimum undressing involved. One piece stretchies with snaps down the front and legs are the easiest to put on. Babies hate having their faces covered.

PS: daddy decided to "chap" in and feedback on a cool technology that he read recently! They says it can saves fuel by 50%, wow that is a lot of money saves, this is the HHO technology -check it out yourself!

My daddy sharing some fishing tips

Hey, this is my daddy blogging coz mummy has been pretty occupied with her school and stuff. And my daddy was blogging because of this incredible deal that he chance upon recently. He is no seasoned fisherman, but he likes to fish and has been fishing since 9 years old -that is more that 2 decades folks! He has most of the fishing rods and fishing reels, the only thing is the fishing tackles. Guess what, he found some of the cheapest discount fishing tackle around, click on the link and see if you can anything cheaper that that! My daddy was remarking that in high inflation days that we are facing now, a penny saved is a penny earned!

Baby Eugenia dedication service

25th Jan 2008 (Friday)

The baby dedication service was held in the evening during the Region 1 gathering by Ps Jean at Bethel church. Granny, Uncle Luke, Uncle Wilson, Gu Gu Eunice, Jie Jie Helga were there to witness the dedication as well. As Daddy, Mummy and me stood at the altar, Ps Jean requested the RR leaders to come and pray alongside with us. Uncle Chong, Auntie Theresa, Uncle Daniel, Uncle Chong Poh, Uncle Kwang Liang prayed for us as Ps Jean led us in prayer. Daddy and Mummy signed a covenant as followed-

{ We, Ebenezer and Elaine in presenting Eugenia for dedication not only signify our faith in Christ and the Christian way of life, but also indicate our desire that she should grow to know the Lord and live a Christian life.
We realize that presenting a child in dedication to God is a serious matter involving responsibilities. We recognize that the first responsibility is ours and so we pledge that:
We will live an exemplary life before Eugenia that she may by example know what it is to be a Christian;
We shall make our home a place where Eugenia shall receive Christian instructions;
We shall ensure that Eugenia is further nurtured in Christian values and teaching through the Church Education Programme i.e. Toddlers for Christ, Children Ministry, Youth Ministry of Bethel Assembly of God;
We shall pray for Eugenia salvation when she reaches the age of accountability, and that we shall endeavor to lead her to Christ.}

“These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Deuteronomy 6:6-7”; “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn from it. Proverbs 22:6”

Baby care products-digging nose?

24th Jan 2008 (Thursday)

I don’t like to have a pillow placed on me. It would make me fidget a lot at times. Mummy cried today. Why? She tried to be a “gold-digger” BUT to her horror, when she picked my nose using a cotton bud, there were blood stains on it when she pulled it out from my nose!!! She was so worried that she called Daddy… Daddy comforted Mummy by telling her that his friend also had the same experience. Mummy told herself not to pick my nose again… What a shock was that for her! Sometimes, I feel like a koala bear as a koala bear sleeps about 80% of the day… I sleep a lot too… the only time I wake up is to have stomach filled. My mouth will shift vigorously from the right to the left and seemingly like a young bird opening its mouth for food! Daddy and Mummy always find that amusing as I move my head in a L-R-L direction continuously (wondering if I can be a record holder in the Guinness Book of Records for the most number of head turns from L-R-L) … If I do not have my milk at that instant, I will couple the session with my loud wails…
Mummy transformed me into a model for caps! I tried on more than 5 caps today and Mummy took photo of every pose when I put on the caps… Hee, I looked great in them! I was sleeping on my hand and that hurt! I cried as a result of that- Granny said that I am very clever as I know how to respond…
I discover that I always sleep better after a feed and I sleep very well with the air con switched on…Cool…

Taking care of baby tip:
The nose is a self-cleaning organ, so you should not try to push anything up or in it or interfere with it. It is much better to let whatever is in the nose to come down naturally. Never put drops in the nose unless your doctor advises it. ~ New Babycare

Baby care products-before she is born!

Many people commented what are nice name I have, Eugenia, sounds so dainty. In fact, there are so many praises about my name, that my daddy went to search and share some site that are good for naming babies. He find this unique baby boy names site quite interesting -check it out!

To him, this is one of the baby care products that is used before the baby is born (hey, that is to answer the many questions on pre-baby care products that many aunties and uncles has been asking him).

My daddy would post more baby care products with each new post...

Baby care productcs are Oh so expensive...

Hmm...guess stuff for me are really expensive huh...Saw daddy "shocked" face every time we went shopping for my "daily necessity"...:) Mummy loves the shopping though, so does Eugenia!:)

One Frugal Spending Tips for buying baby care products I learned from mummy and daddy shopping is to go for house brands.

That means the brands that are produced by the supermarket or hypermarket. For example, if you are going to buy diapers, then you would not be buying "pampers" but house brand, in Singapore context that would be "NTUC" or "Giant" diapers...

As I mentioned, I love shopping but I don’t like hot places! Daddy said that my cheeks were so red the last time round when I was very hot! Now, no more redness on my cheeks as the baby cot was shifted to an area whereby the fan could blow at…

Mummy went for her pap smear test and checking of her wound at Dr Esther’s clinic. Dr Esther said that the wound was healing well. The pap smear test result would be delivered to Mummy in 2 weeks time.

When Daddy carried me, I would fidget here and there. Umm.. maybe it was the way Daddy carried me…

I slept very well on the pink bouncer again! Do all babies sleep as well as me on it too? I perspire a lot so Mummy and Daddy always make sure the room is cool enough and has lots of ventilation. They will make sure I am not wrapped up. However, my granny would be very worried that I will catch a chill. She would prefer me all wrapped up as to keep me warm and snug. Mummy is in a dilemma. What say the Mummies out there?

Powerful baby care products -Ru Yi Oil

My daddy was so amazed with this product that he is dedicating this post to the product. I am also not sure why it is so powerful but the Ru Yi oil really works wonder!

And he feels that if you are looking for Unique Baby Gifts, then you can consider this as well...

I guess it must have been that horrible condition known as colic, I feel this bad stomach ache and so I cried and I cried. I cried every 2 hours. So, my daddy and mummy fuss over me with diaper change, with hot warm milk, with singing and dancing -nothing works. In fact, he was brainstorming on the Best Bedroom Ideas to adjust the baby cot, then maybe I would sleep better.

Then, out of the blue, mummy rub some Ru Yi oil on her hand, and rub it on my tummy -then the ache stops and I sleep like a baby. To me, it feels like a warm layer of heat has surrounded me, something like a body wrap.

So, you can see why my daddy, has chosen this to be the best among so many baby care products...and of course, it is the prayer and lord's providence that lead them to find this that solves the problem -Praise the lord!

Taking care of baby tips: Rub Ru Yi oil on your hand then spread it on baby's tummy to reduce colic...
