playing with newspapers

He needed something to play with. I had some newspapers which I have already read. I thought, what could go wrong. Well, a lot! For one, he produces such a mess, I wonder if I will ever get to remove all those small bits of papers hiding between the gaps of my bed.

I forgot that he likes to taste EVERYTHING and he did put some papers in his mouth. Since he is fine today, I guess a few bits of carbon should be ok.

Yup, its coming soon and it will be Idris's first. He is already testing out his songkok and samping.
He had his immunisation jabs today. Two shots. And they are all free, paid by the government. That was at 1030hrs. Now we are waiting for the fever to set in. We hope it will be smooth "rite of passage for him". Enjoying his time with his grandmother right now. His stuffy nose seems to be subsidiing. Its 1.44pm and soon his brother will be back from school. And we will be one big happy family again as Su has taken child care leave. Maybe a bit whinier because of the fasting, but hey, thats just how we roll.

Good Morning.

This is Idris, at home. Playing with sponge cubes. He just refuses to take his nap. I find that if you want a child to take a nap, you have to tire him. For Idis, I turn him over for tummy time. He hates that. He prefers sitting up and standing. Cheeky little fellow.

He is getting to more playful as the day goes by. This is him, slightly more than 6 months old. My mother in law comes over to help look after him every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. She said that Idris is a gem to look after. Heh heh, nope, I beg to differ. As compared to his brother. Anyway, that is his brother holding him while he, cheekily, carried on smiling.

Idris seem to be more picky in his choice of sustenance. He does not have teeth and yet, he would put anything he can get his hands on in his mouth. I worry for him.

If there is one thing that my boys share, it is their love of hugs and kisses. I don't know where they get it from but yeah, we love to give it to them too.

Its the cheeky grin that makes me worried and proud at the same time. This is when he could not even crawl. That cheeky grin. I bet he is up to something. Ha ha ha

He likes to sit up nowadays. The only problem with him sitting up is that he cannot sit up on his own yet. But to have him sit up and to be able to crawl around, that will be too fast still. I can still remember when I first saw him. And I can still remember how loud he was. He is louder nowadays but less grumpy. He is adorable.
