My husband was sent to Sydney for business and what better way to “save” money! We can go there too and not pay for hotel fees. Yay! So, we applied for the visa, got approved, booked tickets and flew to Sydney. To save money, I decided not to fly Cathay Pacific and use staff tickets… Continue reading Travelling with a [16 month-old] toddler
Overview: Scenario is different, the US travel is way way way ahead while the Sydney travel is quite a rush. But the process, the forms, the payment, etc, I still prefer the US visa process.

Before purchasing this, he would sit in his rocker while we eat. Since the flats in Hong Kong are very small our requirements were that it has… Continue reading Review: Fisher-Price Spacesaver High Chair

Before I got pregnant, I was around 115lbs and just yesterday, I… Continue reading Back to pre-pregnancy weight after 2 years!!!
Baby Tony has always preferred to feed himself. He’s so independent! We did buy him some bowls that have suction at the bottom but we feel is it not enough. He already likes throwing food on the floor so we’d like something to prevent him from throwing an entire bowl of food on the floor!!!… Continue reading Review: ezpz Happy Mat, Happy Bowl and Mini Mat

So when he lets me feed him rice, I act as if I’ve won the lottery! Baby Led Weaning (BLW) is what we’ve been practising at home. After… Continue reading Baby Led Weaning: Food intake in the last 8 months
A daughter of my friend started walking just before she turned 9 months. She’s a week older than Baby Tony. A daughter of my other friend started walking just when she was about 9.5 months old.
