My darling baby is now 7 years

How time flies is hard to believe ... kids grow pretty fast not only in age but also maturity wise unlike during our times.. we were babies till quite an age. I fail to understand how is it so – guess some of the reasons like both parents out to work the whole day and possibly spend very less time with the kids and hence children are independent at an early age – the media – the gadgets that they r friendly too.. i guess these make them different and matured and think big. As a mother I would appreciate if my kids behave like kids its a good feeling ... wud appreciate if other mums could explain ??

Not Any More

Okay not any longer.Now there's action too. Kyle (Okay its "Kye" now officially..) will be completing 5 years on May 2013..He's the most restless child I've ever seen..can't remain in one place for more than a minute.. He keeps everyone on their toes.Kye's a very loving, caring and friendly child.

My son Kyle Clement

My son Kyle has turned one year in the month of May. He is just a darling and always smiling but anger Ooff.. on the tip of his nose. If someone takes away something from his hand, the person has had it. Not by action but by the look and stare on his face that the other person is stunned and does not know how to react to such a situation with this small child. – So mums and would – be – mums.. we have lots more to see of these children – All the best to you all.

Children are no longer to be called children

My daughter who is just three and a half years old.. is one big madam.. Firstly we cant talk to her as though we are talking to a child.

The other day while my hubby and she were driving home. She was questioning my hubby about everything.. so he told her you keep quiet for sometime or else will keep you out of the car. Guess what our small madam tells him back. She told him I will take a cab and come behind you. On that my hubby told her so who would pay the cabbie she had yet another spontaneous answer she said she would ask the watchman to pay once we are home. – we were in total shock by this statement.

I guess we have lots more to see of these kids these days.

Kiele’s 1st Performance Result Day in school.

My hubby, Kiele and self had gone to school to collect her result and to have a one to one discussion with her Class teacher. The teacher is very happy with her performance, her behaviour and said Kiele is a very well mannered and smart girl. The only problem with Kiele is she does not like to mix around with her classmates and does not participate in class activities as in Group discussions or other activities.


The problem with her is that she acts over matured and doesn't like to mix around with kids that easily. She likes to be spic and span and very meticulous in what she does and not like other kids who want to play around, get themselves dirty. create a commotion, etc.


I really do not know how to cope with this situation – if anyone can give me some ideas or suggestions as to how she should overcome this problem – will really appreciate.

Check out my darling Kiele Rica ‘s portfolio

Hey guys.. you must see my daughter’s portfolio and not to miss her facial expressions/pose – It was a great task for me and my hubby while her pictures were being clicked. It seemed as though she was a super star with the attitude that she was throwing at us. Gosh! It was too much for us to take it – I will give you just one instance even though there were many – like – after every few minutes or after a shot - she would require either a soft drink or water to sip and we had to dab her face. She would say I am tired so we had to take her downstairs for a walk – even though, her pictures were being clicked we were totally exhausted by the end of everything.

My angel boy is now 5 months old

I must say that he is very cute and adorable – his smile takes all my worries and troubles and tiredness away in a jiffy. He is such a darling and he loves his sister abundantly – her voice makes him move and tries to catch sight of her. He just loves her and I hope this love continues for ever.

My Advice to mum-to-be and mothers

Advice to mum-to-be and mothers – if you have a second baby – my suggestion is to treat the older one with more love and care and importance. The small one is too small to understand and miss you and at its own time the older child will accept the little one lovingly without any hassle of not being loved.

3 months maternity leave

How 3 months just flew I don’t understand. Even though the leave was for my boy – I spent most of me time with my darling. I didn’t want her to feel that mama does not love her anymore or more attention is being given to my boy. I didn’t want her to anytime feel low and insecure so I gave her all the attention she required in those three months. In fact you wont believe my friends kept telling me that what I am doing is not right you hardly spend time with your son – but I had an explanation to give them by saying she needs it most now. I explained that kiele that he is your brother and mama and dada loves both of you dearly. She understood and taken things in a cool manner. She loves her lil brother lots and lots – I m sure its only because I made her feel that both of you are important.

Went on For a Week

The same thing went on and on – she would tell me mama you may leave I will go alone and then her tears would flow. This episode went on at least for a week and I would be patiently waiting at the parents waiting room for an hour or so.

I could spend hours at the parents waiting room is only because

I was on maternity leave I had just delivered my baby boy on May 19, 2008 and her school began on June 09, 2008. I could do this for complete three months is only because I was on leave – thanks to my baby boy. I wanted to be by her side at this crucial time of her start of school days. My main goal was that she should love going to school so I would then go to drop her and sit at the waiting room. I would leave my few days old baby boy in my mother’s care and leave for school early. I thought he is small so he will not be really missing me but my daughter yes.. she need me mosst at this time.

Kiele’s 2nd day in school

At home itself I prepared her – by saying that you will be making new friends. You will enjoy yourself sitting on all the rides. The teacher is excellent and so on and so forth and last of it I told her that if you cry then mama also will cry – do you want your mama to cry – I took her to school the second day. You guys wont believe what I experienced and what all mothers/parents would want to experience. My darling daughter at the gate itself told me mama you now go home – baby will go to the class alone – you may leave without a tear in her eye but from within she was choked while saying these words and I knew she would burst out crying immediately after she sees me gone. What I thought came true. I said good bye to her and went behind her slowly to check on her. She was sitting and crying in the class but I pretending as though I didn’t see her crying when she came out of the class. At home everybody asked her baby did you cry in school she was like no. this was all done only because she didn’t want to see tears in my eyes. I was so deeply touched you guys wont imagine how I felt like crying after seeing this sweet kind of behaviour.

Kiele is now 3 years old

Am back after very long and new things have happened since I last wrote.

My baby doll is now 3 years old. She has started her schooling too. Her first day in school was a terrible sight for me. I cannot get over it till now and don’t think will ever. Not only was she in tears but me too. She started crying and I just could not control myself from crying. Even though it was just for a matter of an hour that she would be in school but yet. I kept telling myself that enough I need to be brave and give her the courage if she sees me crying then what will she be going through. I tried controlling my tears. With great difficulty I bid good bye to her and I knew for sure she would not stop but could not help it had to leave her. For a second in fact I thought I would just take a back home but again that’s not right on my part. How long will this carry on she had to go to school someday if not this year then the next year.

Reasons for Baby's Demand

After smally's (brother's babyboy) entry we were like now we should be more careful with Kiele coz she should not feel insecure etc.. etc.. knowing how children are when there is a new entrant in the house. I kept all of them informed in the house that they should give equal attention to her and not to mention all the time that now she has grown big and we need to take care or look after the smaller one..hence behave urself etc.. etc..
I know of a friend of mine who has just delivered a baby girl and her first baby is around 4 years old. So long she was alone – she was a very obedient and well mannered child. The moment there was a new entrant her attitude, behavior everything changed this was told by my friend to me. When the massage lady would massage the baby she too wanted to be massaged. She would not listen when told something coz she wanted a mom and dad to keep repeating the statement “ coz she wanted attention. With my friend's experience I was prepared for Kiele behavior also to change.The same thing happened when she demanded to be tied at night like smally. So these changes take place in the family but one must be able to manage and give time for both and not make the elder child feel left alone or else she will develop a feeling of insecurity and become stubborn and feel that nobody loves them anymore.. hence this is a message to all moms.

Baby's Demands

My Brother just became a father of a baby boy last week on the 27th of June. The baby boy just arrived home 2 days back. Looking at the infant being tied up with a cloth she too wants to be treated the same way. Though she's 1.5 years old now she is very observant and wants to be tied up in the same way before going to sleep. She starts screaming "tie..tie" after seeing the baby being tied up. So we have to take the bed sheet and tied her up for sometime to please her. Will have to wait and see what more things she is going to demand for. :)

Babes tantrums

Now that she is just 17 months old but one must check her tantrums and her attitude. The other day I scolded her for not having her milk coz its become a daily routine to fuss about having milk at night. So I though if this continues she will complete stop having milk hence thought of scolding at her and making her aware that milk is important and she needs to have it. So I shouted at her and stuff. She just started running away from me from one room to the other since I had a glass of milk in my hand so to avoid it. As I was getting mad at her my voice increased. This all happened at night u wont believe her action and behaviour after that. She just refused to come next to me and only wanted my mom to hold her. She just turned her face if I would go next to her to carry her. She always sleeps next to me holding me but on that day she refused to even come and sleep next to me.. I forcibly took her to the bed she cried and slept at one end of the bed turning her backside. Trust me I was shocked not only me but all at home with this kind of behaviour. We never expected her to show this kind of behaviour at this age. Nobody can scream at her or scold her or else she will just go to the other room and not look at your face.

Home remedy

Hi..

yesterday all of a sudden in the evening babes started passing loose i mean watery motions.. i just started thinking what did she eat etc... but didnt waste time in giving her home remedy treatment.

I immediately gave her black tea to drink.. applied Axe oil on her tummy and tied her tummy tight with a cloth... believe me her motions stopped immediately... and she was fine...

hence thought of sharing this to you. black tea with one or two drops of lime juice in it is very effective.

Also started giving her lot of water to drink.. always remember whenever your child passes motions frequently immediately stir a little sugar, pinch of salt in the water and give the child to drink to prevent dehydration...

Babes is out of this fear thing..

I must say that we made a good decision and bought her a bike as Christmas Gift as per my earlier post...

Now that fright has jus;t vanished and is just out of her mind.. i was really amazed the other day when I saw her at the garden - sitting on the swing.. there was a time when she would just refuse to sit on it and cry bitterly if we would force her on it... but this time readily she sat and was laughing and enjoying the swings... we really felt really happy and satisfied...

Next step is to make her sit on the see-saw and try if she is scared.. didnt want to try all new things on the same day.. hence will go about one at a time...

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.
