Babes Christmas gift



We gifted Kiele Rica with a lovely Christmas Gift. We gifted her with a bike that works on battery. It’s a very neat piece.

Kiele, as I mentioned earlier get scared immediately. She just does not like to sit either on the swing or slide etc. etc.. I am trying all ways to get that fear out of her system which I think now am being a lil successful.

Like when we bought this bike – we were sure she would be scared to sit on it and if she presses the accelerator it moves – so no way would she be ready to sit on it.

When we went shopping she was fascinated on seeing all the cars and bikes so we thought why not try making her sit on the bike to see if she gets frightened – Right enough she sat on it for a few seconds then was not ready to sit back.

We thought best way is to buy it so that she will see it daily and when she sees other children sitting on it.. she will get bold enough to sit on it herself.

When we took it home she would only press the button and listen to the music and she would dance but that was not the reason we bought this gift for her. So what I did was first I acted and sat on the bike and started moving it to show her that’s its real fun and am enjoying the ride.. So immediately she too wanted to do the same as I – I immediately made her sit for sometime and didn’t press the accelerator coz we thought we will do one thing at a time – for a very long time we just made her sit and listen to the music.. then slowly by slowly I started pressing the accelerator and the vehichle started moving… she was frightened initially but managed… now she tries to go on her own to sit on the bike and also many a times presses the accelerator herself and moves forward.

I was really happy on seeing this coz she is now no more frightened of the bike…

Baby won a prize



Yesterday we had gone shopping to one of the renowned shopping center. Being Christmas day and Christmas season Santa was dressed and there was a live band playing.

The scene was very exciting and Kiele was enjoying herself to the fullest listening to the music. She is very fond of music and dance. Whenever the music is played even at home she immediately bends her knees, raise her hands and shake her legs.

So at the Shopping Centre the band was playing and many children were dancing around that place. Kiele too started and pointing her fingers in the air etc.. she won a prize for best dancing.

As the announcer took her name and put his hand forward to give her the gift, she herself took it from him.

Heat boil burst open



With reference to my earlier post. Kiele is fine now.

The boil just burst open after we did hot water fermentation. I am sure it must have been very painful for our doll but we could not help but do it.

The pus / blood started oozing out of the boil – we then wiped her forehead with warm water and applied Vaseline on that area.

Heat boil



Kiele has got a heat boil i guess.. on her left side of her forehead. The place around the boil has turned red and slightly swollen. – Yesterday we gave hot water fermentation on doing that the boil broke open.. we thought that the swelling and redness would reduce by morning.. but the same still exists..

Can any of you please let me know if there is any home remedy that I can try on her. This evening planning to take her to the doctor. I would prefer home remedy rather than doctor’s medicine. Please let me know what has to be done.

Kiele has started biting..



My doll has started some new thing now…. She will first play with you and all of a sudden you will yell coz Kiele has bitten you. She does it in such a way that you wont even understand she is coming to bite you.

I guess teething time.. I have bought her a teether and stuff but smally doesn’t want to use it..

Her thumb sucking is still on.. if I tell her Kiele remove your trumpet out she will immediately remove it out and then she will say tha... which means thank you coz when she removes her thumb out i tell her thank you hence she says that.. but after few seconds its back in...

If any of you know what has to be done.. plss lemme know..

Hiccup home remedy



Try this out it works – when your baby hiccups… what you do is dip your thumb in water and then in sugar and give your baby to suck – it really helps .

Yesterday I tried it out with Kiele. I had read about this long back but had never put into practice.. yesterday I tried it out and it worked immediately.
