how time flies,
3moons back
you were all but a tiny babe
nestled in my arms
3moons forward
you became a little wonder
ambling happily in our lives
little girl little girl
as red as rose
as cute as pie
u show much promise
i show much love
no one can replace you
and i hope no one replaces us
in your sweet tiny little heart
always my little adorable scarletty.
Papa was the 1st to spot 2 new ivories emerging from Seraphina’s mouth! No more cute gummy grin from now but all’s good! I just hope y don’t start biting……..hmph.
Here’s to more good chomping days ahead!
Xoxo,
Mama.
once more..it’s meal planning time for baby! i seem to have forgotten most of what i’ve done for scarlett…but im really dying to buy the philips avent baby food processor cum steamer. REALLY tempted. mashing cooked carrots/bananas/etc with spoon is really tiring and not 100% smooth and effective. should i spend that money???
then again, i have to think about if i can still use it in future……….to meal planning!
ps: i just need more sleep to function like normal. when will i see this day……
mama

before scarlett officially turns 2, she is already displaying the mentality and behaviors of those who might be 3 already:
during lunchtime:
lett: soup 要, soup 要
papa: okok soup
papa scoops some porridge into soup
lett: porridge, no! papa 骗骗！
once upon a random time:
lett: pocket, where?
stuffs hand into pocket,
lett: pocket, there!
mama: whats in your pocket?
lett: money.
in brewerks during lunch:
papa: papa eat this, ok?
papa points to chicken on lett’s plate
lett: papa, no!
papa: why no? i eat ok?
lett: papa, cannot! 辣辣的！
we always tell her something is spicy when we dont allow her to eat it
oh, my.
This is a must have in our books! My cousin told me about activity tables for Daycares. I thought, “Why in the world would I buy 2 high chairs if I could have one of those?!” I checked the price and those things sell for $300+, which is not in our high chair budget. Plus I would want something to accommodate the whole family at mealtime. I decided to make one instead for a fraction of the price. I found replacement seats for the table online (pkg of 6 chairs for $16.99 and pkg of 2 belts for $2.99 on elitedeals.com) and had Jared cut holes in our free Ikea table. We figure we can invest in a new table when the babies are bigger. In the meantime, we will make wood fillers for the holes when we have company over. The table/chairs are good for kids up to 24+ months.
The table rocks! When the chairs are turned facing out, we can feed the babies easily when they are infants. Jared is demonstrating our plan at 1:00AM when we finished the job. We were so excited for the next morning’s feed.
The chairs can be rotated to face inward, as Jared is demonstrating.
When the chairs are inward, the babies can use this as an activity table with toys or later, coloring/playdo/painting/crafts OR for eating together as a family. Our home is soooo small that this fits our space perfectly!

Feeding twins at the same time is a circus act! This table has improved our efficiency and the babies love it! The babies just turned 6 months in these pictures and we began the weaning process, which means more mess with solids. The chairs come out easily and I can rinse them out in the sink…seriously, brilliant!
We haven’t implemented the “No Feet on Table” rule yet.
oh, the joy of twins…hahaha. im sure they will make any parent super multi-taskers.

mama would certainly appreciate it if you can feed at constant 3hrly intervals instead of cluster feeding cos it’s really tiring…….but again, you are going to turn 1mth soon! that means u r due for ur next jab…ouch! time certainly flies. and soon, you will be a year old. whoops!
no matter how, mama and papa loves you. and scarlett jie jie too!
can you spot the difference? weird thing is, whenever scarlett’s photo is vertical, seraphina’s is horizontal and vice versa. how creepy is that! anyways. answers at the bottom…
answer’s pretty simple. scarlett is always the one on the left and seraphina on the right. but there’s hardly any full face shots, because they look very different when their eyes are wide open.

this is one cake i would really love to have for either scarlett’s or seraphina’s bday:
alice in wonderland inspired party theme. ain’t it splendid?
