Baby Starts Out

Joined "Baby starts out'' organized by the Mountain View Library today. There were at least 15 babies in the activity room. What a baby party! 各國的寶貝齊集，當導師將玩具倒在地上..各寶寶即時被誘，逐一爬到玩具毯上，場面很好笑...Atticus 似乎唔係好投入..不停望望望..應該係有點怕陌生。

Trimming Nails

幫bb 剪指甲是非常有挑戰性的，剛開始的時候看著迷你的小手甲真的無從入手，現在我已經駕輕就熟，隔天就會替bb剪指甲.

How do I trim my baby's nails without cutting his fingertips?

The best time to do this is while he's sleeping. (You may want to leave nail utensils in the car so you can do the job while your baby's asleep in his car seat.) Another good time is right after a bath, when your baby's nails are at their softest.

Make sure you have enough light to see what you're doing. Use a pair of baby scissors or clippers made especially for the purpose. Press the finger pad away from the nail to avoid nicking the skin, and keep a firm hold on your baby's hand as you clip.

Cut fingernails along the curve of the finger. Cut toenails straight across. Then use an emery board to smooth out any rough edges. In fact, if you're patient and your baby's nails aren't too long, you can skip clipping them altogether and simply file them to the right length with an emery board.

If you decide to give your baby a manicure while he's awake, get someone to help you hold him and keep him from wiggling too much while you work. Or have someone distract him so he'll let you hold his hand still for the clipping and filing.

Some parents bite their baby's nails into shape, but if you do, you run the risk of introducing germs from your mouth into any little cut your baby may have on his finger. You also won't be able to see what you're doing, and you'll find that your baby's finger is minute compared to your teeth! Still, some parents rely on this method.

Picking Sunhat: Week 16: Day 108

Summer is coming. I need to pick a nice sunhat so that mummy could bring me to play under the sun.

Passport Photo

Daddy takes Passport photo for me today. Super!

My first 100 days

Atticus is 100-day old today. It's so amazing to see him growing everyday.

Library Visit - Week 14: Day 93

What a good baby reader. Atticus obeyed the rules in library. He kept quiet and behaved well.

Applying for birth certificate

Atticus is 3-month old today. We brought him to apply for the birth certificate. In U.S, they're no fixed 'deadline' to apply for birth certificate as it's not obligatory. 我們回香港的時候也會替他申請護照。暫時還是未有中文名.

Dim Sum - Week 13: Day 86

Baby enjoys going to Chinese Restaurant (Tea House) with parents. (or vice verse!?).
