My husband is one of the cops that been working on the case. Its been 14
months. And I never feel like I actually "have" a husband. Now good la. Next week we will go Vegas for a break. And he can finally "help" me taking care of Pariis la! hahahaha.

I let Pariis tried sippy cup for juice juice too. I think its more difficult to suck, so when Pariis cannot get any juice from it, she just get very mad and give up. I dont know if using sippy cup is very important for baby, because Pariis' aunt and uncle (1.5 yr old and 3.5 yr old) still drink juice
from bottles sometime (sometime regular cup). 我發覺Pariis唔明要將個bottle/cup舉
高先飲到.
How do u want to plan ur HK trip? if just booking ticket, all agents r the same. If for hotels, we usually do it ourselves online. Even last time we went to Japan, we did it online ourselves. 我地跟過2次團, 一次去FL Disney, 一次去魁北克, 結論係, "自由行"好D, 自由D.
HelloPepsi,
I was sick for a whole week since I went to visit socloudy.. me, Gabriel & amanda all in bed for days..
follow by vomiting and diarrhoea.
Amanda has recovered and returns to school, Gabriel still cough a lot with all mucus inside.. (need more time for nebulizer). I am getting better as well..
wish we will meet once when you come back to US!!
BabyRnC,
for 1 year old birthday, the best way for my experience is.. held it at home..
because your lil one still needs 1-2 day naps, to held the party at home, will be much more flexible.
Amanda first birthday is a back yard BBQ party, I baked a winnie the pooh head birthday cake for her.. (it tooks me 5 hours from beginning till I finish the icing on it)..
Gabriel first birthday party.. we just have it indoor (right after X'mas) with all close friends and relatives..
I would suggest you to do it at home if possible, because when it is Pariis's 1 yr old party.. your belly will be much bigger.. it will be easier for you to manage the party.
hum..
Jstn,
I would suggest Terence to have his bottle for formula until 1 year old. we don't want to give him a wrong concept.
for sippy cup, you can introduce it at about 7-8 months old time.. when he has good self support, you can give him those with the straw inside.. then he doesn't need to hold the cup up side down.
it will be good to pour just water, or diluted Juice into the sippy cup.
it is the pathway for infant to learn (slip in ).. one of the skill to learn to eat.

Hi all moms:
Terence is now 6-month old, should i introduce sippy cup to him now? if yes, what to feed in sippy cup? water or diluted juice? is that right that formula should still be fed in bottle?
...
BabyRnC/Jstn,
I had Chloe's 1st bday party at a restaurant since my apt was too small to hold parties. I only invited family. I ordered the cake from the restaurant too so really nothing to do on my side except to bring in some balloons. Take lots of pictures. And capture in video the turn-off-the-light/blow candle/bday song moment. It was very sweet.

BabyRnC:
Though Terence isn't one yet, I have also started thinking about his first year birthday. It's an important celebration. But since he's still young, somehow I think it's more of a celebratio ...
Jstn,
For air ticket I think most agencies have similar price. Last time I went HK I used my credit card points and it saved me money. You can also check the airline website to see if they have promotion. Remember to register for the frequent flyer program. I forgot to do that during my last trip and lost all points. Also you may consider buying cancelation insurance. I lost $500+ last year due to canceled trip.

Carrie,
I will be back to work in 2 months. Will you be back to NY by then? I can probably meet with you and Nat Nat for lunch if I'm still on maternity leave.
I think you are right to leave Nat Nat at home, it's too risky to take her out at this time...

Hello! Where do you live in Houston? I grew up in Houston until I went to college, and I still have lots of family there. In Houston, it will be difficult to find bilingual daycare.
My parents also never cut coupons because they are too lazy. PM me if you have any questions/problems settling down in Houston. We are old Houstonians, having been there since 1989, and should be able to help you.
