Football and Baby


The one thing about following European football in the Asian timezone is having to stay up or wake up at unearthly hours to catch a match. The one thing about having a new-born in the house is been woken up at unearthly hour by a baby wanting milk/new nappy/a cuddle. This week, Siyuan was the perfect alarm clock helping me to catch a couple of football matches, including the excellent Liverpool-Arsenal FA Cup game (I support the losing team, but you can't fault those beautiful arse goals, though I could fault my team's defenders). I'm not sure if that's really a healthy habit though - baby cry, wake up to do a/b/c, stay up extra hour for a match. No doubt, I'll find sleep much more valuable since I restart work tomorrow. I'm already pretty glad to have a new-born baby in Melbourne - land of great coffee. I'm sure I will find those coffees invaluable tomorrow to help me stay awake at my desk.

CNY

Chinese New Year! We dressed him in a Kung-fu set of clothes bought last year :) We spent most of CNY unpacking though and just resting.

Baking his cookies

The kids always get excited whenever Lux decides to bake cakes, cookies and bread, which is often. Sometimes they help. In this case, Siyuan made the cookies more or less by himself. He brought it to school and shared with his friends 😀

He Finally Pooed!

We woke up this morning, resigned to another day of smelly farts and worries about his pooing. We checked at a pharmacy the previous night, and they decided he was really too young to have anything to help with that. And then this morning, after a kickabout with me, he finally pooed. Not a lot, like he used to. But at least it was something. We were both quite happy. Unfortunately, his smelly farts continue! maybe i can persuade dear wife to have more greenies :)
