Cute Baby Contest…..

I sent Rachel’s hiau-hiau photo for a cute baby contest a month ago, and she has been lined up for the October Baby contest… The voting will start tomorrow (1st October to 31st October)! Everyone can vote for a baby ONCE. Can you please vote for her? hehehe…

She is No.26 (Rachel Huan Ying Xuan).
Her photo (an old photo liao ler, since the contest so popular, so many people enter, have to line up for a month) is VIEWABLE HERE. And to vote, go to the last page, or VOTE HERE.

NOTE: The baby number is located BELOW the baby photo. Don’t get mixed up by it…

Baby Sling (Part II)…..

As promised, here’s a photo of the Rachel in her newly bought baby sling, taken in the morning right when we were bringing her out. I used the sling because it was raining!!

Anyway, I have to say, with the sling, it’s so convenient! I have my free hands to hold the umbrella myself, instead of having to coordinate my steps with hubby while trying to shield her, and instructing hubby to walk faster, or walk slower, or umbrella to the left or right… I have NO regrets buying the sling….

I think I just need more practise putting it on and pulling it tight. Actually, I’m not even sure if I’m doing it correctly… Anyone out there that uses the sling a lot, any suggestion?? Do you think she look comfortable?? hehehe…

Being Sick…..

As I posted yesterday, I was sick. Doctor’s advice was, STAY AWAY FROM CHILDREN!

For the first time, my worries didn’t linger around my sickness, but it went straight to, HUH?! HOW? HOW HOW HOW? How do I stay away from little Rachel??

As soon as I got home yesterday, Rachel looked at me and smiled a big cute smile, and probably was wondering how come Mommy is standing like a meter away from me and not coming nearer. Then she smiled to me again and raised her right hand towards my direction. Told her I am sick, and I can’t carry her. Tina (the maid/baby sitter) carried Rachel away so she won’t see me. That’s when little Rachel cried! I just can’t let her cry on, so I showed my face again, a meter away, and she smiled and this time, raised BOTH hands in my direction! After a while, probably realising I won’t be carrying her, she started crying again! It is SO TOUGH!

Anyway, as babies are, after staying away for like 5 minutes, she stopped crying and played with Tina… As for me, I took my medicine and slept until dinner time!

I’m feeling much better now, despite still having slight fever, but throat is at least bearable! Hubby did get some mask from the pharmacy, but Rachel just couldn’t recognise me with the mask on… Hopefully the fever will go off by today evening so I can carry and hug little Rachel as usual…

This is probably the first time I’m taking all my medicine seriously, and following the time strictly! I want to get well soon so I can play with my girl, and I don’t want to have virus in me that could infect her… This adds to the changes that Rachel caused in me eh? =D
