Good Boy so far...
Tuesday, January 20, 2009
I have been a really good boy! After 3 days of recording and monitoring, mummy and I have indeed slipped into a routine! Best partners!
In the day we have very regular 2 hrly feeds at 15 to 30mins each time and in the night mummy and I are both able to get our precious sleep of 2 to 3hrs each time cause I only wake up twice to feed! Sometimes, I even need mummy to wake me up in the night for my feeds hehe. Mummy thinks that I am just like her, a piglet when it comes to sleeping! Daddy is also able to sleep through the night since I cry very little and is still able to room in with us even when he has to work the next day! Yeah!
So far mummy's experience with Breastfeeding has been very pleasant! She only had one run of engorgement and it all went away after one time of pumping out of her milk when daddy went out to buy her a medela pump which she can use occasionally! Thanks daddy!
With this wonderful new found routine and the amount of rest she got. Mummy finally is able to experiment with the Nikon camera. Here's a picture of me in Sepia color! Is it nice? Ok I know I'm frowning yet again, I think I was concentrating on the post milk exercise, my bowel movements... Daddy says I completely learn how to frown from mummy cause she always does that!
My first pair of PUMA sneakers! Hehe nope, they are mock sneakers socks, quite adorable ya? Daddy and mummy also got 2 pairs for my new cousin to be, back in SG! We are going to be PUMA sneaker socks buddies!

About Me
My Estimated Date Of Arrival: 12th Jan 2009

About My Name Pronounced as: "K-lerb, Loo-kas"
Caleb- A faithful dog/companion, is also bold. In the Bible Caleb and Joshua were the only 2 spies that had the bold faith to believe that God will give them the land filled with giants. With the odds stacked against them, Joshua and Caleb remained faithful to God's word. I pray our Caleb owns up to the meaning of his name, that he is faithful to God and bold in living his life for God.
Though many might have think that, "huh meaning of a dog???" but when you reverse spell the word "dog" what does it turn out to be?- "God" And you know how much our family loves dogs so when we chance upon the meaning we were like, OMG that's so meant to be. The qualities, loyal companion, big hearted... It's definitely a name great for a little boy and for a man to be! Though Jason and I do not attend church regularly, it's definitely gonna be a good name if he decides to become religious.
Lucas- Light or bearer of the light. Lucas is definitely going to bring light into our lives...
Here's a list of things that Daddy and Mummy are preparing for my arrival and some of them were passed down by their friends & relatives. Others, were gifts! Thank you very much all aunties and uncles, Jies Jies and Kors Kors!
