thirstyYesterday afternoon while dad-in-law was playing with Aidan on the floor, the li' fella forcefully removed himself from dad's grasp and ended up knocking his head on the coffee table. He started bawling away and my horrified dad-in-law immediately picked him up to pacify him..I came out of the study room to check when i heard his cries and by then, his sobs were tapering off..but when he saw my curious face peering at him, he immediately switched on his water tap and started sobbing pitifully, scrunching up his face, as if wanting me to sayang him..He was okay..just a small little red bruise at the side of his face which faded by the end of the day..A li' cuddling and some breastfeeding and he was sighing comfortably on the bed.
DIL felt extremely guilty though but I told him not to feel bad since it's inevitable that such mishaps happen especially with a hyper boy like Aidan. I guess I'm learning to cope with Aidan better now..Babies are probably more hardy than what we think of them ..
He's a sensitive li' one..That night,he had a nightmare again and was tossing about and started bawling away in the middle of the night ..had to cuddle him and breastfeed him to sleep. The last time that it happened was when he fell off the bed. I dread to think what he'll be like when he becomes 'old' enough to starts thinking that there are monsters in the closet..
----------------------------------------
Been spendin most of the afternoons trying to teach Aidan how to crawl forward. He loves being on all fours..problem is, he doesn't exactly crawl ..he squirms and most of the time, he'll end up going backwards instead of forward. And he loves to 'rock' up n down like a horse while he is on all fours. And then after trying so hard to move forward to get his cookie monster (which is what I used to entice him to move), he'll flop on the bed and start sucking his fingers to sleep. Kua kua~..
I have actually videotaped it down but *sob*, I can't show it 'cause......(see below)

Bah..we still haven't figure out the DVC..spent the last 2 nights installing the DV studio [pinnacle] hardware & software..Having problem with the software now. Installed everything as instructed but everytime we try starting it, a prompt stating that something is wrong with the installation of the software and to reinstall it again and so we did..Deleted the software, reinstall and same prompt came up over and over again. Bleah.. Really not sure what to do now..They should make this stuff more idiot-friendly for non-tech savvy people like us.
Went to the pinnacle website to search for clues why it ain't starting. Apparently, we gotta login as power user or administrator to run the programme..Problem is, hubby has forgotten the password!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *pull hair*

Aidan attempting the serene look..which lasted whole of 3 seconds..

Long joke but I thought it was hilarious..
Are you smart enough for 3rd Grade?
A first-grade teacher, Ms Brooks was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, "Harry, what is your problem?" Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the first-grade. My sister is in the third grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the third-grade too!"
Ms Brooks had had enough. She took Harry to the principal's office. While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms Brooks he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the first-grade and behave. She agreed. Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Harry: "9".
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Harry: "36".
And so it went with every question the principal thought a third-grade should know.
The principal looks at Ms Brooks and tells her, "I think Harry can go to the third-grade."
Ms Brooks says to the principal, "Let me ask him some questions?" The principal and Harry both agree.
Ms Brooks asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?
Harry, after a moment: "Legs."
Ms Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?"
The principal wondered, why does she ask such a question!
Harry replied: "Pockets."
Ms Brooks: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Harry: "Pants"
Ms Brooks: What's starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?
Harry: Coconut
The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer, Harry was taking charge.
Ms Brooks: What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?
Harry: Bubblegum
Ms Brooks: What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting down and a dog do on three legs?"
The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer.
Harry: Shake hands
Ms Brooks: Now I will ask some "Who am I" sort of questions,okay?
Harry: Yep.
Ms Brooks: You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to get me up. I get wet before you do.
Harry: Tent
Ms Brooks: A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when you're bored. The best man always has me first.
The Principal was looking restless and bit tense.
Harry: Wedding Ring
Ms Brooks: I come in many sizes. When I'm not well, I drip. When you blow me, you feel good.
Harry: Nose
Ms Brooks: I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a quiver.
Harry: Arrow
Ms Brooks: What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of heat and excitement?
Harry: Firetruck
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, "Put Harry in the fifth-grade, I got the last ten questions wrong myself."
