Field Trip!
Thursday, April 9, 2009
Caleb and I had the car today coz mummy wanted to run some errands. So Uncle Jervis came and fetch Daddy to work in the morning. It was kinda exciting coz its the first time we are going out together on our own and Caleb's first time sitting alone behind in the car!
Both Caleb and mummy did very well though! We manage to run all the errands we had to do in 3 and a half hrs- went to Joanne's to get some scrapbooking material as well as some muslin cloth, to kohls to get some kitchenware for our new SG kitchen as well as BX to get daddy's clinique products, oooh and not forgetting to UPS to send out a mail!!! The problem is that there were so many places to go to and they are not within walking distance of each other, we have to get out from the car a few times! But luckily with the help of our wonderful stroller plus our very new beco carrier shopping was a bliss with Caleb! We just took our own sweet time and enjoyed ourselves out in the afternoon. I even had some popeye's chicken!
While we were waiting at the checkout counter in Kohls, Caleb was in a rather good mood and decided to flirt with 2 elderly ladies behind us. They were so smitten with his little coos and smiles and couldn't help themselves but touch his chubby legs and arms! Mummy was really pleased! Even the cashier lady wasn't spared!!! Caleb's definitely a chick magnet,too bad it wasn't daddy who brought Caleb out all by himself haha!!!
We manage to change Caleb's bum bum while we were at Kohl's dressing room, mummy was trying out some dresses when he decided to poop, he even had one feed after our trip to BX. I must say nursing him directly is definitely very convenient, no need to find cups of hot water, no bottles to warm up, no need to pump, less stuff to bring out, anytime anywhere!!! The only problem is that I can't leave him to go out on my own for long... We did try one bottle feed last week though, and he did take it pretty well but daddy and I still prefers to direct BF him hehe... Hassle free! Here's a pic of him with daddy trying out 20mls of feed!
Caleb did fuss abit while he was sitting behind in the car alone one time, mummy had to push him his pacifier while we stopped at one red light hehe, thank god mummy has a long enough arm to be able to reach him haha... By the end of the trip after our last stop from BX to UPS, Caleb was fast asleep in the car! But it wasn't for long though, only about 20mins nap and he was wide awake once again...
Well well, we shall do it again soon, as for now Caleb's knocked out in la la land!

About Me
My Estimated Date Of Arrival: 12th Jan 2009
My Delivery Doc: Dr James Johnson

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...
