Sleep ove "Day"??

We are having the problem she sleeps over "day" not "night".
I am really like a candle burning two heads work and after work now.
Both works I could not do well.
This morning, we work up late again coz she is so energetic at night and looks for others attention. And she is so sleepy not open the eyes when i send her to nanny's house.
Maybe it is really hard to raise a "smart" baby.

(PS. Hazel met Yifu and Chris at SoGo this sunday afternoon. She cried hard in front of them coz she likes to sleep "at day time".)

4 Months Health Check & Injection

Weight: 7.3kgs (<90%)
Height: 65cm (>90%)
She only cried in injection and not cryied when it was done.
Hazel is a healthy and brave.

I ask the doctor if she is too chubby but she doesn't think so.
The doctor thinks she still can eat more.
I could not lose weights and how can i ask my hazel to!
It is the problem of gene.

Many-sided Baby

Bad girl continuing...

Hazel is not sleep whenever she finishs the milk around 11pm..
11:20 ~2:20 play & cry &amp; cry hard & cray even harder
This mornning we even slept over till 7:45am because of broken sleep.
And, I told nanny about her bad habit in not sleep at night when I send hazel to her house.
The funny thing that i heard nanny talked to hazel "為什麼在這裡都會睡,在那裡就不睡?你都在這裡睡阿~" on my way out nanny's apartment.
It is really heart breaking to hear that.
Why. why..why?
I don't like it at all.

Fred said he would talk about the issue with nanny tonight when he pick up hazel.
Hope so~

Bad Girl + Still not able to turn the body over

Hazel had tried to turn the body over but failed last night.
It is a good try if her another arm is not stop there.
I found it is hard to deal with her around 11:00pm. ~2:00am..
Somehow she just like to play and talk around that period of time.
It really makes me angry and like to know how to put her to sleep.

This mornning, the earthquake didn't wake Hazel up.
I wonder actually she is quite enjoying in the shacking.

Living Mall 京華城

It became a training to show Hazel around.
Living Mall should be nice to take her for a walk since the place is big and not crowded.
However, I don't think it is conveient and nothing much to see.
Again, we asked Startbucks for hot water to making the milk.
It is nice to hear people saying Hazel is vary cute and beautiful in the mall.

Not knowing why, Hazel cried so hard in the taxi.
That might be another task we need to train Hazel except for mall.

Beauty of East Undergourd Mall

東區地下街之花 ?
This weekend, we all decide to take Hazel out seeing the outside world.
She scared to have grandpa and grandma to hold but not playing with her.
We had lunch box at the East Undergourd Mall and show her around.
It's quite nice to have Starbucks around because we can ask hot water to make the milk.
Hazel didn't afraid of being held by grandpa and grandma when we back to our house.
Finally~
She had a pretty good sleep at night from 11:00pm.~8:30am..

Also, Chris had met Hazel in front of SOGO dep.

5 hours sleep

Still, sleeping problem.
When could I have a complete sleep at night!!!
Sleepy (at work 8:50am)

Tough work for a tough nut

Hazel is a tought nut.
It is a tought work to put her sleeping between 22:00~01:00.
Too energetic in playing , talking , screaming, and crying.

Dear Hazel Please~

Hazel didn't sleep at night these days.
I reallly felt disappointed at her not sleep over night.
Also, her crying sounds like screaming.
My dear Hazel ...Please be nice~

(P.S. Nanny siad Hazel knows who is taking care of her now. Another kind of difficult period is coming.)

Bum Bum~

Hazel gets a pretty hip.

Full Round~

Hazel Xmas Tree

Recognize the Family

Hazel cries so hard when others hold her except for the parents.
We all wonder if Hazel can see and recognize people. Since she has not seen grandma and grandpa for couples of days, she cries when grandma holds her. Maybe fred and I should show her vedio or pictures of people to recognize the family.
It is funny for me to introdue her everyone when i hold her in my arms.
However, she has no problem held in others arms at the end.

Baby is changing everyday~

Sleepless (cont.) 2nd training day

It is really tiring watching baby at midnight and keep awake on day working.
Somehow fred not able to put Hazel to sleep for 1 hour from 11 o'clock milk feeding. She don't like to have the teat (pacifier).
I hold the baby over to sleep with me in the main bedroom. The 2nd training day stars....
Hazel makes noise around 4 o'clock.
Action-> give her teat to make her sleep
Hazel cryies little bit around 6 o'clock
Action->end of training giving her milk

Go back to sleep~
We all wake up late around 8:10.
Score: 88

Sleepless (cont.) 1st training day

I still not able to fall sleep or sleep deep today.
Depression still~

Fred is sick for continue days of midnight shift in baby feeding.
I decide to take the turn and also take the chance training the baby sleeping over night since i am sleepless.
Eventhough Hazel doesn't wake up, she keeps on moving head and hands.
Unbear seeing her sleep not well, I feed her by 5:30am.
My training repots 00:30~5:30 five hours thirty minutes sleep.

My idea is 7~8 hours sleep.
In this case, i only scores 68.

Tomorrow, i should train her sleep longer.

(P.S. I have done in reading Chris's book.)

Too angry & too many things in mind...cannot sleep

愛碎碎唸的小金 (哭訴中)

天下父母心

I really cannot tolerate any more.
There are many things i have buried in mind.
Let me starting with...
如何訓練一個有手有腳的子女,而非出一張嘴巴
近日又聽到有"人",工作不順. 依我對此人的了解 (曾一起上課2個月)
她總是怨人不好,每個人在工作上都有起伏,工作上沒有人需要服伺你,沒有惡人, 自己不要成為他人眼中的惡人就好了。
在任何工作中都瞞怨別人的不是,做不高興就不做了. 一個工作又換一個, 要不是在她的生活中沒壓力,哪能說做就不做. 她爸罵她也不是沒理由,因為他愛他的女兒,唯有訓練她成長,不因一點挫折就在家依賴他人而生活. 她換這麼多工作,都做不久,是不是該自我檢討?
在這社會上,多少人會慶幸她所擁有的,而她卻不知努力。

常想到fred所說,父母親供他唸書畢業,他覺得父母親已經很偉大了. 至今也不敢讓母親知道任何生活中的不順遂. 而今因該好好奉養父母.。

已經長大了,應要學習如何在逆境中成長. 當你一直保護子女,只會讓他有逃避的機會與理由. 什麼事都幫她做好,她不知什麼事都要辛苦付出,而不是都已做好撿現成。 當然可笑臉迎人, 但深不知都是別人在後面為她辛苦付出的代價。

想到這裡,誰工作沒心酸處,要不是為生活與不讓長輩操心, 老娘早在公司裡罵人後走人! 難道要回家哭訴, 然後看家人會不會說 ""好了, 她們都不好. 不想做就不要做. 反正長輩有錢, 讓你靠一輩子都不用看人臉色, 而給盡人臉色看"" 。

心想到這, 為何自己年邁60的母親還要替她擔心難過, 要年邁65的父親去幫她辦護照買機票, 難道她沒手腳嗎? 工作半天也有時間自己去辦吧!!

又想到之前她在同學面前談論媳婦的工作, 一副自然模樣說出 ""吃飽飯,還要洗碗, 不是很可憐"
真是xxx, 把我當洗碗機? 不煮飯也不洗晚, 工作不高興就在家待。

產後一直不舒服..小金的媽..我真的生氣了!!!!! 她說我們不是一家人,我也非常同意. 只是想不到她竟然會如此說出口.... 那她為何要折磨我父母, 要幫她......

Task & Goal

Due to no direction at work, the empty feeling warns me to set some goals in life.

1.) Hazel could able to sleep over night.
2.) Back in shape enables to dress up nice.
3.) xxxxxxxx
4.) $$$ to buy xxx
5.) Win billions lottery

Just look at my list...

I am really "lost".

Book reading-

Stay where you are, with what you have, make something of it and never be satisfied.

創新常來自一個靈感,唯有付出行動的人才能帶來改變

長期耕耘不是簡單的事,需要經歷時間的考驗,盼望是個信念,唯有真正付出行動,堅持到底的人,才能親嚐收穫的喜悅

學習放下自己的原則,做一個有彈性的人, 在不必堅持的地方,多給彼此空間,學習去包容並適度的表達自己感受

Parents' reading list

As parents, we all have responsibity in teaching our babies.
However, it is such an hard work.
More than providing food, it is more important to arouse the intelligence and teach how to live in the society.

1.) 怎樣激發寶寶智能 0-2歲的成長與學習:

• 孩子的認知組織(組織知識的方法)和認知功能(運用智力的方式),在學齡前已建立. 智力進行過程已建立 - 學習的態度,追根究底的精神,他去滿足好奇心的強烈慾望
• 儘早與有趣和刺激性環境互動,對腦發展有絕對衝擊,會增進學習能力

2.) 因材施教 - 從出生的第一天開始

氣質

• 活動量/規律性/趨避性/適應度/反應強度/情緒注意力/分散度/反應閥/堅持度
• 好飼養/磨娘精/慢吞吞型/中間偏向好養/中間偏向難養

學習動機

藥物: T.L.C. (Tender Lovely Care)

每個小孩是不一樣的,不是強迫成為你喜歡的樣子,幫助他走上對(他)適合的路

------------------------------------------------------------------(Add)
※知識以一循序的方式藉由CEO活動來發展: Construct (to know the object) / Expend (their knowledge by relating other known)/ Own (exercise what they know to own the knowledge)

※引人興趣之過程;智力發展之四要素
- 成熟: 與生具備之能力,環境在決定能力會表現出什方向及達何程。度提供【適合其現階段】的多樣化環境,充實其成長提供經驗成長; 不適合能力程度,無窮止境之挫折。(經驗- 身體的/社會的)
- 身體的經驗:一個人與身體環境之互動,透過經驗行成建立科學與邏輯數理的知識,ex. 用一個杯敲一個碗,發現杯子特質,形狀透明度發出聲音或體重質感,用身體之互動來為自己組購知識,即使不正確,會一再琢磨試驗而改正過來. 藉主動操作物體,發現環境中之規則及對她做動作時的影響
ex.給在嬰兒床中BB,垂直欄杆將拿不到,需換方向.為推理之過程行成未來數理觀念
- 社會性的傳遞轉移:經由文化(藝術.音樂.語言與教育)的管道,理解社會性的規則與模式
- 自我的調整:BB有內在能力,促朝更高致力適應性發展。被激發去達到更高明的知,人類心智會自行調整. ex. 大海不是大游泳池,知被挑戰成衝擊,被迫創造出區分。在沙灘玩耍發現海水是鹹的,基底是砂等.玩耍方式去分辨差異。

平衡機制如一調節器,調節器會將物體摸索來之概念,與已知關聯起來。
自我挑整知過程,激發孩子去明白經驗帶給她的意義.不段的關聯來明白之間知區別。
糾正BB她仍維持舊有的行為模式,他需要多一點時間去弄清楚觀念. 若糾正造成迷惑與驚訝,表示他已準備好學習新的觀念。你的糾正,造成【失調】

※ 儘早與一些有趣和刺激之環境互動,對腦的發展有絕對的衝擊,這會增進學習能力.
※ 閱讀技巧+數字技巧+特殊知識=智能
※ 智能之母是動作不是言語,為了去認知,都必須行動
※ 得到刺激之變化性是心智發展決定性要素,過多刺激會造成情緒傷害
※ 去追根究底,求證及拒絕第一個想法的能力,是我們要灌輸孩子與社會
※ 【感官-運動】六個階段:
0-1m
1-4m
4-8m 複製偶然造成且發現有意思的行為。激發其行為的理由為1.)自己以外之物體2.)此動作是重複的
8-12m強化過去學習並應用於新的情形。很多學習收穫被融會貫通,始有（方法-結果）關係的觀念,非偶然選擇方法去完成先設立的目標
喜歡躲貓貓遊戲/模仿能力進步
12-18m系統性修改一個動作,以便發現動作之改變如何影響結果.
試驗與實驗來解決問題
從接觸.看.聽.聞和嚐才知道的認知系統中跳出,可透過想像知道事情
18-24m象徵系統已發展好,不會有前一階段實驗錯誤情形,可在心理想出一解決方法,在解決他.
面對問題時,只一點點或根本沒身體之探索。以直覺及自我為中心(學齡前兒童的思想)
4-8M階段:

Thanks to Chris

I am quite surprised chris giving me this book-愛呆我家連家恩.
To me, i am a person don't like reading book.
However, i have changed my interest to read after MBA study.
People do change by different period in life.

By reading this book, i am looking forward to get some answers to my life.

當一個人懷抱夢想,並相信可以成就時,幸運之神便悄悄降臨,為我們種植澆灌此夢想的種子,奇蹟將隨著夢想而發生.

Thumb delicious?

Hazel has enter the period of "eating thumb".
She would use her hand push away the pacifier to put her whole fist into her mouth.

Flu forever

Hazel and I almost recover from the cold.
However, Hazel's dad stars getting sore throat.

For the midnight feeding, Hazel fell asleep on my arms right after meals.
What a accomplishment!
I am really gratified at Hazel satisfaction with my feeding service.

(Hazel is good at erecting herself to full height. No wonder nanny asked me how old is Hazel. Coz of the excellent job on straigh her body for long time.)

Anniversary & 3 months old

(Cebu is not a fun place.)Yesterday, it was fred and I anniversary day.
Today, Hazel is three months old.
Nothing happens but we all get better from the cold.

I have not held Hazel for couples days.
And I found she is not that heavy on the way to nanny's place this mornning.

Baby in the distance

It is really sad that i cannot hug my baby these days.
However, it is safer to keep the distance from getting mine bad cold.

Doctor said

Hazel got lots of sputum in the throat.
The medicine must not taste good.
She swallowed it with crying out loud and painful.

Go Go Go

Me and Hazel got a cold these days.
She didn't sleep well last night coz of the stuffy nose and cough.
Hazel cried so much at night.
I really feel sorry seeing her fighting with the virus.

Looking forward her to get well as before.

Something about nanny

There must be somthing wrong between me and the nanny.
It seems to be hard to communicate with her for my suggestion.
As a experience nanny, she might have her own idea of taking care of baby.
To the new mommy, she seems not belive in my suggestion.

To be honest, I really feel depressed.

1st cold in life

Hazel got a running nose?
Or have a stuffed-up nose?

She didn't have good appetite. There are couple of meals only 60~100ml.
Usually she could drink up 150ml.
Hope this is not her 1st cold in life.

Who is moving my baby!

Hazel was not sleeping till 00:30 with arms sweeping.
Finally, I was so tired that I left her crying in the bedroom and I laid down on the sofa in the living room.
Few minutes after, her crying was little different.
As a mother instinct, i check her in the bedroom and not found her on the bed.
However, i heard the crying sound still.
Later,I found her face down crying on the floor by the bed.

I was shock!

Unpack Hazel

It is always fun to unpack Hazel on the sofa after we pick her up from nanny's house.
As kids, we unpack the present seeing anything intersting in the box.
For us, we unpack Hazel seeing how she is wrapped in the blanket.


Hazel looks like solider standing straght with both arms close to the body.
She likes raising her arms up. So, it is fun to see her submiting to nanny's packing.

Reunion

It is always nice to see and talk to friends.
Cardiff classmate-Rita mentions having a reunion recently on MSN.
I have graduated from Cardiff for 2 years.
There must be many things happened on everyone.
And the obvious changes to me is marry and having a baby.

Show me the money

Hazel's dad might find a new job in these days.
If so, we would be more secure in raising Hazel.
In addition, his new office would be only one block away from my office. We can send and pick up Hazel even more convenient.

Instead of blessing someone, being someone's blessing

Today, i met an interesting person.
I felt she almost share her life with me. Is it really a different to be a Christian?
It is hard to explain the feeling i have. So complex~
She reminds me the question whether i live or exist.
What is the important thing i should do now? If everything i do make me happy to be born on this earth?
Sitting by my desk watchs the time goes by with nothing complish.
Am I serious live my life?
Even, have I took good care of Hazel? Waking up in the middle of night comfort Hazel is more important than a broken sleep?

Seeing someone lives meaningful and happy in life. What is God's arrangment for me?

miss my baby

Hazel is growing everyday.
Suddenly, I realize it is important to stay with her more.
The moment won't be back.
I recall the time she was one month old and surprise how different she was by days.
This mornning, i sit by her bed looking at her lovely face.
She is so cute....

Progress in the thrid month

10/8 Hazle had her second health check in the hospital.
We had wait for more than one hour to have the check.
It is fun to see others baby in different look and size.
Hazel is 59 cm (90%) height and 5 kgs (50%).
In this check , we are happy to know Hazle is a tall and average weight baby.
We are expecting her to be a "model" now. Keep fit~

She like to exercise her arms to hold her top body up for few seconds.
To make her laugh is the goal for the following months.
Hazel could make many differnt sounds and screan in laugh.

Being a good mother

my favorit pix

Last night I got difficult time dealing with my dear Hazel.
The unknown crying ruin our sleep again.
We have assumed Hazel like to cry when she feel sleepy.
I cannot help angry at her for the situation.

There are lots of things i know i should not behavior as a mother.
However, it is really hard for me to be a "good" mother.

The lunch time mother talk reminded me my bad attitude taking care of the baby.
I shall have patient of baby's crying.
Instead of angry, i should do better job in talking gently to comfort my baby.

Miss -> Mrs -> Hazel's Mum

Being a mother for two months．
I still try to think the different when i was single or just married.
The life is so different that i still not believe i am a "mother" now.
I often wonder who is that baby when someone else hold Hazel in the arms.
And postpartum depression was a thing i deal with. I shall say i am rcovering now.

Double Eyelids

It is surpring to see Hazel with double eyelids.
Even she looked so tired i took the picture as a record of new finding.

avi testing

It is hard to film Hazel smiling or laughing in front of the camera.
She might have questions of what is the "thing" not look like mum and dad.
I shall get a DV to record her precious babyhod.

le bébé a le mauvais trempe

Hazle is official two months old.
Fred just talked that we can control Hazel better now.
Then..
It is weird that Hazel starts not like to sleep after milk and even not like being holding in the arms to sleep.
She kept on crying whole night that Fred has to comfort her from 9:30 to 11:30 pm..

Finally, Fred was so tired and turned to me for help.

The funny thing is Hazel sleeps by herself with pacifier after i feeding her.
There are three reasons can be explained;
1.) She was tired in crying
2.) She is really hungry
3.) I fed her extra 30cc. milk

And , one conclusion can be made.
"You cannot say the baby is easy taking care in front of the baby."
As old people are reminding us...you cannot say somtihng ..in front of the baby.
