Separation Anxiety

Every morning, before I leave for work, I would hugs and kiss the girls then say my bye-bye. Qi Yu is at the stage where she knows that bye-bye means mummy is going off to work. And when she hear me saying bye-bye to her, she would starts to cry and upon seeing me walking out the door, the wail is even louder. That would make my feet very heavy upon leaving the house. :( I guess she is at the stage of separation anxiety.
Every morning, I would have to carry her first until she is satisfy then I can pass her to the maid without her making a fuss. But if I don't carry her and the maid pick her up directly from the bed, she would be wailing away! This is my Qi Yu, wanting to have her share of mama! :)
Qi Ning is quite ok with me going off as long as I give her a hug and a kiss. But sometime she would still ask that I don't to office or making request to follow me to office. I promise her I would bring her to my office one of this day. So next Staurday, when I am having the family week event, I will bring her to my office.

Flu bugs

During labor day holiday, we took Qi Ning and Qi Yu for a morning swim with my brother's kids. I think Qi Ning is not used to the cold water in the morning, she got a running nose after that and then follow by cough. She has been having a cough and running nose since then!
Good thing is that there is no fever and she is still very active. When give her medication, she would co-operate and take her medication without a fuss. At time she would request for medication herself! She would ask me to pray for her to get well soon.
The flu bugs seem to be active in my home now, hubby is down as well and I can hear Qi Yu coughing every now and then. And mummy seem to be getting it as well. Hopefully, we will all get well soon!

Six Month Old

Is amazing to see how a child develop each day. My Qi Yu is already 6 months old two days ago. I was too busy to blog about her development. Her weight is about 7.3kg and length about 67cm. Still not drinking very much for the time that I am away but since she is putting on weight and is on reverse nursing, I am not too worried now.
Supposed to start her on solid but I have not teach the maid how to yet so I am putting it on hold. Her first pearly white is noticeable now. And she is able to sit by herself without support but still not very stable yet.
Emotionally, she is able to show her "jealousy". What I mean by that is she would cry if she see me carry her jie jie and not her when I return home from work or early in the morning when we first wake up. If the maid will to take her from me, she would also protest by crying. She knows how to stretch out her hand toward me when she want me to carry her.
She don't really like to sit in her carseat and would often protest when we put her in her carseat. She would protest so loud when we insist that she stay in her carseat. The minute we take her off carseat, she will be smiling. So is going to be a battles to make her sit in her carseat because she sort of know if she scream loud enuf she will be off the hook. So daddy & I really need to learn to put a deaf ear to her screaming in order to train her.
She is an alert baby, don't like to sleep very much. She brings us lots of joy as well just like Qi Ning. I really thank God for the two precious girls!

Pearly white

My Qi Yu's first pearly white has finally emerged thru' the sore gum on the lower jaw! Can't see very clearly yet but can see only the tiny bit on top if you are observant but if you feel it with finger, it is quite sharp. I think a few more is on it's way. Some said so early got teeth oledi ya, some said so late only got teeth ya. I also dunno whether is early or late, for me as long as is healthy, can oledi. I can't remember when did Qi Ning cut her firth tooth.
Is really amazing to see the little one grows. My Qi Yu now can really show her preference. Whenever I pass her to the maid she would complaint so loudly. If the maid is carrying her, not for long she would be making noise. If hubby or myself take over, her noise will subside immediately. She obviously knows her parents. I just loves her as I loves Qi Ning! :)
