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 [...]

Spoke too soon…

April 1st, 2009 · 1 Comment · A father's POV, A toddler's POV, Caitlin the heiress, Caleb the heir, Ergonomics, Parenting musing

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 [...]

Baby sleeping through the night

March 22nd, 2009 · 3 Comments · A father's POV, Caleb the heir, Parenting musing, Short post, Simple pleasures

Absent parents are home..

March 9th, 2009 · 6 Comments · A father's POV, A toddler's POV, Ailments & cures, Caitlin the heiress, Caleb the heir, Parenting musing

Hot Mummee and I came home on Sunday morning. The flight from Melbourne arrived KL at 5am local time; I booked the overnight one to save a day(light) for when we arrived, but didn’t realise till later that it actually arrived that early. But in any case, we did “gain” a full day despite my [...]

How to ween 1 yr old baby off overnight feeds

February 11th, 2009 · 5 Comments · Parenting musing

It’s hard not to compare your kids when you have more than one. Especially with Caitlin already not needing overnight feeds early in her life / early in our new parenting roles; I think it was even around 6 months that she started sleeping through the night. The other things would also be when she [...]

How do I break a waking crying baby at night?

November 4th, 2008 · 4 Comments · A father's POV, Caleb the heir, Food & feeding, Infant development

Daddee drifts in and out of sleep at his desk… Daddee has started developing a headache by mid-morning… Oh- sorry, did you call me? An ongoing struggle… He doesn’t seem to be breaking the habit… 3 nights in a row, he’s woken twice for feeds, and 3 times just because… Or was it 4 times? [...]

In a rut…

October 13th, 2008 · 2 Comments · A father's POV, Caleb the heir, Ergonomics, Food & feeding, Infant development, Parenting rules, milestones

This week, actually for the past 3 weeks, Hot Mummee took it upon herself to craft her company’s business plan. Apparently the company has never had one. In hearing her describe the sections that are to go in, it sounded more like an extended version of a company profile than a business plan; a 12 [...]
