Kick Kick Kick

ever so active, kicking and kicking at Sentosa Playmobil

More attempts to kick and crawl....

First time swimming

Jacob's first time using the neck float and kicking about in the MBS bath tub. Everyone loves the tub. Gloria still does. Ian is a new convert. And Jacob loves the tub too.

In contrast, Jacob hated the infinity pool - the water is probably too cold to his liking. :)

My little fella

3rd month 18 June. Posing with his teddy 

Hanging out with my colleagues while mummy does her appraisal 

His thighs are almost getting stuck in the bumbo!!  He loves to be upright though... Watching things around him.

Grandpa calls him Jacob ham.

His double chin is pretty cool. Haha.

Need I say more about his chunky thighs? 

And his earnest face. I wish he grows up as earnest and kind as his dad. 

Baby Jacob

Watch how his face has grown!!

Ah Yee calls him chunky monkey... Hehe... He is going to infant care next Tues.

Month 3 going onto month 4

My little little pumpkin is growing readily... Perhaps a little too readily now. 

He weighed 6.9kg last Monday when he went to Dawson Clinic for the rotavirus vaccination. 

And today, he went to Bukit Merah Polyclinic for the 5-in-1 and the pneumococcal jabs. One on the right thigh and one on the left thigh. 

Here are his statistics on 24 June 2014

Weight 7.1kg - 90th percentile

Head circumference 41.5cm - 75th percentile

Length 62cm - 60th percentile. 

So he is weighing like a pumpkin but a little short. 

Probably I should let him exercise and kick his limbs more... Anyway J will be going to infant care next Tues... I think I will miss him. Yet, I think I can't quite tahan taking care of him for the whole day...my hands and back are breaking...

He just started stuffing all his other fingers into his mouth...

He loves to be upright these days...

Having breakfast at blk 61 with my pumpkin...

Ice skating at The Rink

One of the things that is on my to-do list with the kids... Ice skating... But I don't have fantastic balance... So I am relying on E to handle the kids... And he did a great job! 

This Saturday, we brought the kids to Jcube to skate at The Rink... It was expensive fun :) but I think the kids enjoyed themselves...

Vance was pretty "garang" and gungho and didn't seem to mind falling over many times. Ian was doing not too bad too, having improved his sense of balance after practicing the pennyboard. But he was still slightly more conservative, counting the number of times he fell (4!).  Vance's friend Zahid looks like Mr Bean... Hehe, a little clumsy and not so daring. 

Gloria's first time ice skating turned out to be quite successful. E managed to coach her quite well - I am surprised!! She didn't cry when she fell. She held onto the penguin skating aid while E skated along. 

And towards the end of the 2-hour session, Gloria picked up enough confidence to even try skating on her own. But E didn't allow her... Hehe.. Still seems dangerous to me! 

She is so much braver than me!!! and E did a total fabulous job of guiding her.:))

Jacob enjoyed himself too... And slept for a good 2 hours while in the carrier. It was chilly cold for the little one. He only woke up towards the end to drink his milk. 

Great outing 10/10... The two boys and friend were happy.. Gloria was exhausted and fell asleep on the stroller after the session.
