Klaire's 1st swim!

Everything's falling into place now. I wanted to give Kirsten more time. I set half a yr for her to adapt to school. She kept crying at the doorstep when we send her. She will wail, koala hug me and kept repeating Mama,Mama....I can't bear to leave her too, but I just have to do it. Every morning, I went to work feeling lousy and felt I'm a lousy mother. BUT, I was met with a lovely surprise come just last week, exactly a month later after she attended school. She happily went in without any fussing! She even cooperates and opens her mouth to let the teacher checks for signs of HFMD. I was overjoyed. Even as the door closed and I peep through the window, I can see she was trying to remove her shoes and putting them in the designated spot in the cupboard. So determined and cute.. My girl has grown..

Klaire's eczema comes and go. She had four lil teeth now. Because of her itchy gum, she's drooling big time and she kept bringing everything and anything to chew. All these led to the rashes near her mouth. Poor lil apple.
We brought her for her 1st swim(like finally!) at Hard Rock Hotel (Thanks to sista cleo and family) and this lil girl really enjoys being in the water! she can float neatly with a neck float without struggling. Even as I guide her in the water, her legs will naturally kick backwards! amazing! Whereas, Jiejie(JJ) is super kiasi. We had to coax her for like 5 mins b4 she agrees to go in the pool. And she still doesn't dare to go near any splashing water that are meant for play. Lousy ya? Meimei(MM) is much better.. Way to go MM!


Testing my new camera and used Klaire as a model!

My 1st Skool

Kirsten went to school on the 1st of March. I accompanied her for 2 half days. She was okay, did not cry at all. Quiet and observant, she was reserve and likes to observe the other kids while hiding at a corner. Separation anxiety comes after 1-2 days after I stopped accompanying her. She would cry at the door and koala hug me. Best is when she keeps crying for Mama mama mama...makes me feel so sad..
I have to endure for this is a passing phase. It is a new challenge for me and her. Hope she can adapt soon and loves to go school eventually!

She's a gem and cooperates fully when I wana get a passport photo of her for her enrollment form. She's jus so cheeky n lovable with her "gek" smile...


Her first day in school.



And Klaire has recovered from her eczema! She's smiley always..

Her milestone to date -
* Eating solids and sucking water from straw.
* 2 lil teeth at bottom at 6 mths plus
