Park

Took Siyuan to a nearby park today :)

Stand

seems to have screwed up the last posting picture. Anyway, here's another picture of Siyuan standing...in his own bedroom and bed. We're still struggling with frequent nite waking. He would sleep reasonably well from 8 pm till about midnight, and then he could wake up at 1, or 2, but certainly almost always at 3 am. He might also be awake at 4 am. Its been pretty tiring.
Nurses and friends tell us he's going through a developmental stage where his brain is processing a lot of information, so that's why he's having more wakings. We can only endure!

Crawl, Sit, Stannd

The teochew have a saying, that roughly translated, meant a baby will sit in his seventh month, crawl in his eighth month, and then teething will occur in his ninth month.
Siyuan teeth in his sixth month, crawled in his seventh, and then sat in his eighth. He is now learning to stand. As you would notice, his was the reverse order.

Epic Feeding

We came back to Melbourne and moved him to three solids fairly soon after that. This was my epic struggle with him, which he won of course.
That was in the early days, and I'm now better at it. At one stage i threatened to slip a big piece of newspaper over him becos of the mess. Thankfully i've got the knack better.
Or maybe he just didn't want his dinner then.
