Phew..Time really flies, Jared has just turned 4 months old. Last Sunday, we had a simple celebration to mark his 4 months old. MIL prepared red eggs, boiled chicken and "mee sua". According to ancient beliefs, the parents should each feed their baby with egg and also drumstick so that he will not be a picky eater. What a belief...but we still performed the ritual.. LOL..
His milking behavior has also changed since 2 weeks ago. He will refuse to drink milk whenever he is awake eventhough he is already hungry. I tried feeding him while he was awake, guess what he did, he would use his hands and pushed the bottle away. Sometimes he wouldn't swallow the milk and just let it dripped out of his mouth.. Then we found out that he will only drink when he is asleep or half asleep, 5oz will be taken up in 5 mins. Thankfully he has been sleeping quite frequently, though they are just short naps during the day time. Challenging task for both babysitter and myself.
He is now showing more anxiety when strangers try to carry or communicate with him.
There was one day when we left him alone on his bed by the floor . Suddenly we heard him squealing and guess where he was when we went to see him, part of his body was on the floor and he was trying to lift his head up high. We now have to be more careful on where we place him as he is starting to learn to turn sideways.
All in all, he is still as adorable as before, smiling whenever we play and talk to him.
