Selfish
I woke up earlier than usual this morning cuz Cedric was crying very loudly for no reason. My mom was making milk for Cedric and Colin was trying to calm Cedric down...The milk came but still Cedric refuses to tone down. After much checking, we realise he has a very wet diaper and he is ver uncomfortable. We changed him while feeding him his milk...but then this baby of mine juz pushed the milk away, sat up and smiled at Colin...indicating that he wants to play instead.
Colin has to go to work soon so i stayed around to play for awhile. I took his pillow from him and lie on top of it...Seeing this he crawled over to me and snatched back the pillow. I did this a couple of times more and then he refuses to give me the pillow. Seems like we have a selfish baby here... And my mom was mentioning some old wives tales that if the First Born boy is selfish, the Second born baby will be a ger... not sure if there's any logic there... All i know is that I wun be having a second baby so soon.
We are currently saving up to buy a house... not sure if i can carry on living in the same apartment as my dad as he's really a troublemaker. Colin is doing very well saving up and sad to say I'm not. I'm spending alot on food cuz when I'm stressed I'll eat. What am i stressed about? My weight. Though I'm doing Yoga, I dun see much change in my body... most ppl tell me that i'll have to control my diet but when I see myself in the mirror, I'll be stressed. When i stress, I'll eat. When i eat, I'll grow fat. When I'm fat I'll stress more and then eat more. Can anyone tell me how do i break the chain? I'm sick and tired of feeling this way.

Cedric and his misadvantures
Okies, I accept the fact that my son is growing big and heavy. I also accept the fact that many more bruises will appear on him. That is Cedric. Being a baby, he is curious about anything and everything. He climbs, crawl, pull and stuff anything into his mouth. Recently he likes to pounce. His favourite target: the comforter.
When he crawls into my mom's room, he gets all excited when he sees the comforter. He'll crawl real fast up the platform and unto the bed. Weird thing he does is, he'll move slightly away from the comforter first then turn around to face it. Before you know it, he'll suddenly just pounce into the comforter.
That's how he recently injured himself. The comforter was piled up on the bed, but i think someone might have moved it so it was half off the bed and on the platform. I was told that Cedric was so excited to see the comforter that he jumped into it and he missed the bed totally n landed onto the platform...so that was his misadvanture. But I believe that it won't be the last time you're hearing from me about all this.
He is growing up real fast. Maybe in a month's time he'll be able to walk on his own. I'm worried that before he is able to stable himself while walking, he'll start to think about runnning. That is where i believe that he'll have more injuries. I would like to think that the more he fall, the faster he'll learn about danger and learn to fear it. I know that all this falling is part and parcel of growing up, but what would my mother-in-law say when she see all the bruises? Will she insist that she'll want to bring my baby back to her house to take care? Will she snatch Cedric away from me? I know some of these worries are uncalled for as Colin will be there to stop her. After all Cedric is my son and in the eyes of the Law, I'm the legal guardian. Anyway, I just want to be able to teach my son what he needs to know and I shall make sure that he grows up to be a fine person and not some wilful brat. That's all I'm asking for.

Cedric's Quick Learning
Finally able to do a little update on Cedric. Mischievous as normal. He nw imitates his father during play time. Colin was make funny faces, raising his hand wildly and making funny noises while playing with Cedric and not long after, u can catch Cedric doing the exact same thing. It's really hard to believe that Cedric, being 8mths old can learn things so fast. He understands alot more than the babies at his age.
Also found out recently that he dun like ppl to say "orhhhh" (reprimanding manner) to him. He'll start to cry. But that is a way that I can effectively stop him from taking things n putting it into his mouth.
Finally i managed to change my tagboard so that all you godmothers n friends can leave a msg.
Last but not least, I've added new pics in the gallery. I'm still consolidating the pics so pls come back often to check.
