Brought Baobei back to my parents' place once a week, on every Sundays...
Initially, for the first few times, Baobei would look around the living room n at my parents n siblings, n cringed her face and started crying... think she was scared of unfamiliar faces and surroundings...
So for the last weeks, Dearie would go in first and ask my parents and siblings not to rush forward in enthusiasm when they see Baobei... A few minutes later, me would enter wif Baobei and try to get her to familiarise with the new faces and surroundings... Our efforts pay off today! She warmed up almost immediately to them and started chuckling and playing with them! Me felt so happy! At least my parents and siblings will not feel 'detached' from Baobei now, as I can understand how they must have felt when Baobei always cried in the past when they tried to play with her!
However, she is still scared of unfamiliar faces... especially when guys come closer to her and talk to/touch her... she will cry but still look warily at them with watery eyes... hee... scared but still wanna look... at least we don't need to worry about her being 'kidnapped'... cos before the kidnapper can do so, he/she may be scared off by her wails... haha!
Baobei managed to turn over onto her tummy successfully at 5.5 months! =) Since 4 months, she has been trying to turn over but somehow or other, one of her hands would be stuck beneath her body and she could not get her hand out... she would be very frustrated when she couldn't turn over successfully...So we had to help her turn onto her tummy when we saw her trying to turn... cos it's important to let them play on their tummies...We were so happy when we saw her turn successfully! Sis-in-law took videos and posted on you-tube too... hee! Since then, Baobei would take every opportunity to turn onto her tummy and play, even in her sleep!2 nights ago, heard her make noises while she was sleeping... walked over and checked on her... and guess what? She was on her tummy, making baby noises! Luckily her neck is strong enough and she can keep her head raised for quite a while! Else, will be so worrying...
Dearie bought a new toy for himself, to pamper & reward himself for the late nights and Sat burnt... he has been very busy at work for the past week...
The new toy he bought is a PS3 game, Guitar Hero World Tour. It comes with a complete band set comprising a microphone, drum set and guitar! He's playing the game now, so funni, behaving like a little kid again... Now that Baobei is taking a nap before we go to my parents' place for lunch, Dearie has his headphones on so as not to disturb her... but can stil hear him hitting away at the drums... Glad he has more avenues to relax =)
Yesterdae, Dearie was at Tekong since morning and onli came back around 7pm... So itz jus me & Baobei... quite fun bringing her for her morning and evening walks and bathing her alone... when she slept, me quickly bathed, had meals, vacuumed floor etc... spent a good dae wif her =)
