Xuan's 4th months old !

Time flies !

and Xuan is already 4 months old ! ( by chinese lunar calendar.. hehe ). And so, with the traditional chinese custom practises.... as what taught by my mom; we celebrated Xuan's 4 months old.

This is how we celebrate it...

Firstly, we had to string together 12 pieces of biscuits ( use Marie's biscuit, dunno why but this biscuit been around ever since my days as a baby as well ! )
Look funny eh ? Haha... yes, hang those 12 pieces of biscuit on the baby, take one to swipe on the baby's lips. ( my mom says this is to make sure the baby won't go saliva dripping anymore ! i think so... )

After that, hang those 12 pieces of biscuit on the wall...

Next,
comes the chicken drumstick. ( boiled , pak cham gai ! ) Rub them over the baby lips also ! It's a ' open mouth ' ( hoi hao ) ceremony !


Xuan do looks like he is enjoying the wonderful chicken drumstick flavour ! lol!



Xuan now looks like this... I always feels like kissing him because of his chubby face. :p
i have some more cute shots of his in my phone. Yet to download them. Probably i'll upload them here next time.

It's been a rather busy month for me... the school holidays started, with everyone at home. It's so noisy and lotsa lotsa works to do ! And both sisters also get sick at the start of the school holidays... it's coughin and puking time for them, which makes me hafta cleans up the mess so many times.... Now they are much better, which i am so glad ! Healthy kids are certainly what every parents wished for !
Bad germs , go away !
