This is my two month old nephew. He’s named Josiah and weighs 7 kg! π
I love how his folds of baby fat makes him look like a little emperor. Heh. He’s quite heavy for his age, a nice weight to carry around.
…although a pram makes more sense. Haha! I was out shopping with my parents and my sister’s family in Singapore a couple of weeks ago and I can appreciate how hard it is to take care of a baby. I still would love to have one though. π
This here is my niece Kara, who’s all grown up now. She’s almost 3 years old and she can already string a sentence together very cohesively.
She’s already very mature and it never fails to surprise me how fast babies turn into kids. It’s amazing, the thing she says and does, more of what I’ll expect from a 7 year old than a 3 year old. π
omg he’s so cute! first time seeing a photo of your nephew. i want to cuddle and hug him!! :))
Heh! I know right, he’s so adorable! π
My sister makes him do mild exercises by crawling in the morning to strengthen his neck. He’s going to be a big guy, this one. π
Josiah is so cute!!! π
Thanks Pam! π
He’s really placid too, doesn’t mind me picking him up even though it’s the first time I’ve seen him in real life. π
Ooooo…so chubby! LOL!!!!
Love your Berlin t-shirt! Nice!
Thanks Arthur!
I’ve got some stuff for you too (but Dresden, not Berlin – also the Philippines, but not those huge flip flops, those are mine haha ;)), pass it to you when I go back to Sibu. π
LOL!!! I wouldn’t know what to do with those flip flops.. Use to fan myself perhaps. π
Haha! That would be useful!
I might probably do that considering it’s probably going to be relegated to my room due to the garish nature of the souvenir. π
Haha! Yeah, our little emperor. π
He was born at 7 kg! I don’t know if he’s gained any weight since, but it’s all good, he’s going to grow up to be a big guy. π
Like father, like son…
Heh! Indeed, my nephew looks more like my brother in law than my niece. π
I like Josiah’s expression in the 2nd pic…like a boss!! hahaa
Heh! I just noticed that! π
Totally like a boss. I like how chubby he is when he hasn’t outgrown his baby fat.
Kara (my niece) used to be a bit chubby too but is quite skinny now that she’s grown out of it. π
HB, how wonderful a dragon nephew. Just like you and your sister she older and you younger. Watch you older sister like to boss younger siblings around.
Yeah, he’s a dragon baby, I don’t know if it was aimed to be so or just a natural progression.
Exactly! My sister’s family configuration is similar to mine – one older sister, one younger brother. It’s about the same age gap too. π
hohoho uncle HB. when they grow up more you can be the ‘cool’ uncle that does cool things that their parents prohibit. heh! every family seems to have one.
Heh! I think I’m the *only* uncle so I guess that makes me the cool one by default. π
Yeah, I think so too – or it could be cousins who are much older. π
Cheers bro!
a big baby is a healthy baby, does not necessarily mean he will be ‘big’ in future
True that! π
Yeah, it’ll be good to watch him grow up, he’s more placid than my niece at that age. He doesn’t mind people picking him up as much. π
Josiah is so cute and chubby. I believe many people would love to carrying him around.
Indeed he is! π
I love carrying him though as he is only 2 months old, neck support is required when you hold him. It’s a bit tricky for me coz I don’t have kids on my own but I can manage. π
Thanks mate!
kids are cute in small doses, only problem is when you need to take care of them for any stretch of time. hehe
Heh! Yeah, that’s the thing about kids, especially when they’re so young.
They wake up so often and there’s a lot of stuff you have to schedule around the kids, see my sister and brother in law doing it all the time. π
Huai Bin, is your sister now practising as a doctor in Singapore? Must be good money since Singapore is short of doctors
Singapore is short of doctors? I didn’t know that.
Yeah, my sister is a doctor, don’t know about the good money part, I don’t ask about her finances. π
omg so chubby! feel like cubit-ing his cheeks! hehe
Haha! Yeah, he’s nice and chubby, good traits for babies his age. π
Thanks Constance!
So cute!!
When my son was 7kg at 2 months old, my parents put him on a diet because we couldn’t see his neck hahahaha!
HAHAHAHA
Well, I think they’ll grow out of it but I’m not a parent so I wouldn’t know for sure. π
My sister gets him to do short crawls to strengthen his neck in the morning. π
Cute! Kids nowadays are fast learners so be sure to teach them the right thing! Haha!
Heh! Of course! π
Indeed, they really surprise me, I don’t know if every generation feels this way or kids are *really* getting smarter.
Cheers Charmaine!
i like to see babies with folds of fat that reminds me of Michelin man. hehe
HAHAHA
Yeah, that was the first photo I posted up, he reminds me of the Michelin Man too when I first saw him. This is the first time I posted my newborn nephew’s photos. He’s cute and cuddly! π
Thanks Eiling!
