Had my full medical checkup some three weeks ago now. The bloodwork came back all good news. The Dr, whom had presumably a few minutes ago rummaged through the pages before calling me in, was flicking through the four-page report, pencil-pointing to me the different categories and the corresponding figures and how each were within [...]

Drives us all up the wall

I recall I used to do this to my mum as well when I was this age. Kinda also recall driving her crazy too. You feed the 2 year old a mouthful. And he keeps it there. No movement, no chewing, no swallowing. It’s J U S T T H E R E in his [...]

Hands of a 4 year old.
August 14th, 2009 · No Comments · A father's POV, Caitlin the heiress, Food & feeding, Parenting musing, Photo opp, Short post
I was just going through the photo library on my laptop… and this just occurred to me. Does this look like a hand of a 4 year old? Maybe it does to you. To me it looks more like- maybe a 10 year old’s hand. This was when Auntie Susan and Uncle Jonathan had lunch [...]

Caitlin had fever on Sunday. So she didn’t attend her 1st session of her art class (actually it would be her 2nd session, they allowed her a trial session last weekend to assess her: behaviour, “standard” of her skills like drawing & painting, etc, to decide which level / class to put her).

Woken by the kids, got them some morning snacks, and since it wasn’t too sunny and hot…. Luckily for everyone, Caleb actually likes to push from behind. But it won’t be long though, before he’d be wanting to ride. Yes, they were still in their jammies. It’s Sunday okay- give us parents a break! Evening [...]

McDonald’s McValue McParty!
May 21st, 2009 · 4 Comments · A father's POV, Caitlin the heiress, Food & feeding, Parenting musing, Photo opp
Caitlin’s classmate Chloe had her birthday party at Centrepoint’s McDonald’s over the weekend. I had organized Caitlin’s 4 year old birthday party before, and one of my criteria was that all the kids should enjoy the party or event. I did consider McD’s then, but didn’t think it was going to be all that fun, [...]

It’s not always that we get to eat like kings. But one doesn’t have to be kings to be able to eat like this in mostly all Australian cafes….. Okay okay, this may not be a big deal for some of you guys, but it is for me; cos it’s not always that we get [...]
