No Milk!

On good days, Lil Shauna will fall asleep while drinking milk or right after her bottle. Actually, dentists recommend babies to not sleep while drinking cos it promotes tooth decay. Oh, babies are also supposed to have their 1st dentist visit when they turn one. I seriously duno how to make one year old babies open their mouth to show their pearly whites to the dentists. Anyway, we couldnt really care much anput tooth decay. Daddy Lim will do his part to help Lil Shauna brush her teeth -- when he remembers. ;p We keep our fingers crossed, always hoping that she will drift to dreamland so that we too could have some rest after her milk.



For the past week, bcos Daddy Lim is on night shift and Lil Shauna has problem sleeping at popo's place, I had been "bringing" her home every night and tucking her to bed. Actually, my mum will walk her to my home and help me look after Lil Shauna while I bathe. It is definitely much easier than us staying over bcos the baby tends to turn in at about 9.30pm at home (must be our smell on the bed) and there wun be much fussy or fighting over toys. But her jie jies will come home with her and they will continue playing until about 9pm. I have not much complaints about that. My mum is already kind enuff to walk Lil Shauna home, allowing me to stay sane than to rush from work to mum's place to home.


During the time that they are at our place, they will snack on biscuits and drinks and whatever that they can find. Well, other junk food and baby snacks, there is basically not much human food in the house. As a result, there will be no more space in her tummy for milk. That was what happened last night and the same thing happened again tonight.

I was having my dinner (at home) and we have Lil Shauna walking to me every now and then, exclaiming "mum mum". Each time, she will have some luncheon meat off my fried rice into her little mouth. My mum then gave her baby biscuits to stop her from disturbing my dinner. Then came corn flakes shared by Lil Shauna and the 2 jie jies. Lil Shauna finally ended the whole makan session with half a bottle of water. Like that how to drink milk?

Without milk = no sleep. So, she ended up monkeying on the bed, despite only taking a short afternoon nap.


She had to use her last ounce of energy to play before finally flopping onto Daddy Lim's pillow and fell asleep.
I duno how she can sleep like that, but she did. Look at her feet! Daddy Lim always say that Lil Shauna had inherited my "shui xiang". She can flip the whole bed while sleeping. You know why he is complaining? Bcos Daddy Lim always find Lil Shauna sleeping horizontally acrossed his portion of the bed when he returns from night shift, leaving him no space to sleep at all. Hohoho.
