What’s in his milk?
Shocking! Darling was reading the papers today (yeah, he diligently reads the papers everyday.. I don’t :P) when he came across this article. The first thing I noticed was the 13 teaspoons of added sugars every day! What? So I thought they were referring to those super sweet UHT milk, you know, those kotak kotak one in the market? Terus I told Ethan, no more susu kotak for you boy! But as I read further […]

Chubby Is Cute?
My mother and niece stayed with me for almost a week recently. One day while she was watching tv with Ethan and my niece, she saw a really skinny frog and exclaimed, “Alamak SKINNY nyer macam ETHAN!!!” I guess most of you are familiar with that frog! I posted that on FB and as usual, crazy comments started pouring in :D A friend commented that my mom is implying that Ethan should eat more… but […]

You’ve got to TOUCH to FEEL it!
People said I’ve been emo lately. Yeah-lah, life is not always a bliss rite? Sometimes up, sometimes down. But most importantly is how we pick ourselves up and stand on our own two feet again. Come to think of it, that is the basis of life. Since our baby was born, we’ve been encouraging him to lift his head up. A couple of months later, we encouraged him to roll over, then crawl and then […]

Connected Tots Experience
Just the other day I shared with you guys Ethan’s connected thoughts experience, didn’t I? How he visualised those large toilet paper rolls as tunnels for his train track and really making one (or more)? It was amazing and I wanted to learn more about brain cells connection. So I browsed the net for further info and stumbled upon this Anmum video on YouTube. Let’s watch. :D Did you click on the correct choice of […]

Building tunnels, connecting tots
Have you ever wondered why books for new born babies focused mainly on touch, visual and sound? I remembered getting many of those sensory books for Ethan when he was younger. That was because when I was pregnant I read that when babies are born, their brains are ready to learn. As babies grow, they learn many things, but they do not acquire new brain cells. They do not get new muscles, either. Ethan @ […]

New Milk in Town – Dutch Lady Kid & School Milk
See the picture above? That is our breakfast today. I hope it is healthy enough. Planning a meal for Ethan is a constant headache as I need to take into account how active he is and how nutrients for physical development is just as important as food that emphasizes mental development because he is rapidly growing. When we were in Singapore the other day, Ethan was so engrossed with the travel activities that he doesn’t […]

Dutch Lady ‘Let’s Hear from the Kids!’ Facebook Contest
I’m an outdoor person. I love outdoor activities. Like mother like son eh? :P I’m starting him young :) On ordinary days I love to jog. I will jog either in the morning or in the evening with Ethan. However, I was unable to jog the past couple of weeks due to both Ethan and I being sick. Today, as I was lying down I did the cycling motion in the air. Ethan: Mommy, what […]
