Push Up & Hold Book

I was exhausted when I was waken up by J wanting to be fed. However, the moment I slightly opened my eyes I saw J was trying to roll to one side - his intention is to 'fatt meng jang' instead of turning. :P

To my surprise, he managed to turn himself upside down and best, he used his arms to push himself up. I was so excited by what he did and tot I would love to take a picture/video of him doing this new thing that he learned.

However, when I hold my phone camera, he refused to show me and just put his head down on the bed like what he normally did. There, I missed to capture the moment of his first success early in the morning. Sigh..

In fact, he managed to push himself up a little yesterday, but just for a short while. As usual, the moment I grabbed my phone camera, he refused to show off. :P Well, I still captured a little bit of him trying to push himself a little bit, so little that I was like.. 'you must be trying to fool me'. :P And then, he chose to lick the bed instead of pushing himself up.. Guess he was tired. Hehe..

So, later today, which happened at around 8pm something, I was reading him 2 short stories from the book "A Story A Day". Both of us were lying on the bed while I showed him the pictures and words in the book while I read.

When I am done, I was showing him the book that we read just a moment ago. He again surprised me by using both of his hands to hold the book! Yes!! He held the book!!!! I tried to let go of the book to let him carry it but yeah, as expected, the book is too heavy for him. Hehe.. :P Then, I took the book and tried to show him again.. and one more time, both of his hands reached and held the sides of the book! Yes! He did it again!!! :))

I am so happy to see his many learnings today..

However, it seems like he wasn't feeling too well today as he cried a lot. Well, I think it's due to the fever. The fever has pretty much subsided however he is still not feeling very well I guess. Well, this round of vaccination, I did not feed him with paracetamol medicine (I wonder if that's how it spells). Guess what, I fed him with only ginseng powder, since yesterday. Hehe.. And.. well, showing good result. :)

Just now when I was feeding him, he was crying hard (I think he is in pain.. must be the wind!!!). I tried so many rounds to feed him but he continuously struggled. In the end, I tried something.. fed him with ginseng powder!! Haha.. He loved it and he smiled!!! Of course it then followed by breastfeeding.. he cried again.. Sigh..

FInally, after struggling for quite a while, he is fast asleep. :)

Such a tiring day...
