So we had Caitlin first before we had Caleb. It’s a 3 year 2 months gap between them. Boys mature slower than girls. This is quite evident; individual personalities and characters aside. When Hot Mummee was pregnant the first time, I had quietly wished that our first one would a boy. This isn’t a tightly-held [...]

I have mentioned about his shifty eyes, looking at Daddee funny with an attitude, when he was only 6 months old. Now he doesn’t look at me when I tell him off. He’d sometimes take forever to finish his bottle of milk. 3/4 through and he’d stop, get off the sofa, wanders around for whatever [...]

Only a few days after that last post on how Caleb is starting to sleep through the night, he started (again) to not be so. Why does he wake? Just because. Just because I made a little noise. Just because Caitlin needs to go pee. Just because I shifted in my bed. Just because he [...]

How old before babies start to stand and walk?

Caleb turned 1 in Jan ’09. Today he did these…. And then, for the first time(s?) in his life, he stood! The following pic was actually not the first time he managed to stand. That first time that he did manage to stand, we broke into cheers and applause that frightened him, and literally made [...]
