Bedtime song for Xi

Just want to record down this bedtime song i created for Xi. She loves to sing this song herself or with me during her bedtime:

Big Sister, Big Sister
Look at the moon, look at the star
It's night time we say Good Night

The "Big Sister" no doubt refers to Xi as she always calls herself as "Big Sister" and her meimei as "Little Sister".

Ru was jealous of Xi

Ever since I was pregnant with Ru, I have been worried of sibling rivalry between the gals and so had bought a lots of books on new baby and talked a lot to Xi to prepare her for the arrival of her meimei. All this effort seems to have paid off as Xi is taking the arrival of her meimei pretty well from the start and loves her meimei very much.

Never did I thought that Ru will be the one jealous of her jiejie especially she is only 6 months old, going to 7 months old. We were at my aunt's house 2 days ago after my work and when sitting on the floor with Ru playing on the bumper playmat, and Xi running around the living room, Xi suddenly held on to me wanted me to carry her. When Ru saw i carry her jiejie, she immediately turned her whole body to face me and yelled at me to carry her! She only stopped crying when my uncle picked her up and patted her. Haiyo, so young can get jealous liao.



It's always very cute to see these two little babies together, sitting side by side. En En is Ru's little cousin, about 1+month older than Ru. En En is very fair and smiley and at 7 months old, already can crawl very well and stand by holding on to furnitures. She even knows how to waive bye bye to people. Smart gal! Ru is still learning to crawl (now she can only reverse crawling, haha!). It will be real sweet in the future to see the two cousins playing together. :)

Ru's first solid food

Ru had her first taste of solid food 1 day before she was 6 months old, on 19 July 2009, because it was a Sunday and I want to be the first one feeding her her 1st solid. Like her sister, her 1st solid food was Healthy Time Brown Rice Cereal and how she loves it and wanted for more after i fed her 1 spoonful of the cereal. However, next day her nanny told me this gal refused to take the apple puree which i made for her :( that she turned her head away after she first tried it. Even when the nanny mixed the apple to the cereal, she knew it and refused to take. However, I told the nanny to try feed her again in the evening, and this time, she finished all. :)



Thanks to mummy YM for making this portable highchair for me! It makes feeding Ru so much easy and she seems to be happy sitting into it and been "tied up". :)
