9 am
: Erin doesn’t want to take the pacifier anymore. Partly is because it is a new pacifier with a flatten shape for baby of 3-6 months.
6 pm: Erin is forcing Mommie to play with her the whole day. Mommie teaches Erin to rollover and makes her excited over a rattler. Erin also holds milk bottle for a long time with both palms opened.


31 Dec 2005

26 Dec 2005
9 am: Erin bullies Mommie early morning. When Mommie is beside her, she turns and chit chatting with the cartoon design on the cot bed bumper. Mommie is there only to hold her bottle so she would not “kung fu” the teddy bear and bolster.
10 am: Erin keeps on saying “Ogai” to Mommie. It could either mean “Old Guy” or “OK”.

4 pm: Erin’s head is finally shaven. Mommie-Sha can’t help laughing at her new look.


11 Dec 2005
6 pm:
Erin’s head and neck are strong now. No need leaning the head on Mommie’s shoulder anymore, just a slight touch of her chin on Mommie’s shoulder is enough as to learn being brave in making the neck strong. Head totally up!
At 2 months old, Erin can hold her head straight. Mommie noticed when carrying her at noon and Erin lifts her head during evening bath.


10 Dec 2005
10 am: Erin bullies Grand-Aunt Umi singing. The moment she stops singing, Erin would cry. Erin’s favourite song is Auld Lang Syne, it seems.
11 pm: Erin is suddenly too clingy to Mommie lately. Mommie has to sleep beside Erin (on the bed). Else, she would start shouting. Every time Mommie pacify her, Mommie’s the one ends up crying. Mommie almost wished that she could have a year off from work just to be with her!
