Natalie is 5 months old

Sometimes when I see myself in the mirror I will ask :YUCKS who is this fat and ugly woman! I am still not back to my pre-pregnancy figure and many people say it is the easiest to slim down within the 4th month after child birth. Look at me, sigh it's pass 5 months already and I still cannot fit into my Levis... sad sad, just recently I went to Giordano to get a pair of size 30 Jeans so that I can wear denim once again. My tummy is still very swollen, Jeff says I need to start doing some sit ups to firm up the flabs. My mum tells me if I had gone through natural labour my tummy would have gone down by now, she said majority of the women that undergone c-section will have difficulties getting rid of the tummy. Sigh, how true.

Time flies, my Natalie is 5 months old! I have start weaning her, with soft porridge once a day when I got back home in the evening. At 1st she doesn't know what to expect and didn't take it well. After weaning her for a week plus, today she finished the whole portion of porridge I have prepared for her. She now knows when the spoon is near her mouth, she will open her mouth to allow the spoon in. I love feeding my baby, seeing her every expression is priceless.

5 months old already!

This was the 1st few encounter with food.

Who else but babies that can still look so adorable with food stains all over their mouth?

Natalie laying on my bed and trying to hold her milk bottle. That was a very good attempt but still requires more practice.


Playful little baby. :p I love to see her smile.

Now I can fully understand why parents can keep talking about their baby and not get sick of it. I can play Natalie's video over and over again and still able to laugh at her funny actions. Few days ago Jeff suddenly say that we should plan to get Natalie a playmate... he said we should have at least 2 children. Oh gosh, just 5 months ago I went through a tough labour and now we are back at this topic again. Not that soon, at least few years from now when Natalie is big enough and when I am ready again. But my clock is ticking, if I really want another child I have to plan to have it before me turning 35 years old.
