Today, Dad, Mom and Grandmom took me to take these immunization shots. The doc probably didn't know how much I have been through to fight for jaundice a few days after I was born. I took a short nap while on the way to the clinic in order to be ready for this piece of cake.

A stupid nurse tried to scare me by laying out the needles. She had no idea where I come from..... Tai Family..... We consider needles as soft massage.

I cried but not because the needles hurt me. It's because my mom held my hands too tight.

I had to pretend that I was scared so my dad would hold me tighter like you see in the photo. I love my dad's arm. He is so strong.

I love my swing

Did I tell you I use to hate the swing. I would only sit on it for no more than 10 minutes and wanted grand mom or mommy to hold me. However, recently I have discovered that sitting in the swing is pretty comfortable. I actually napped in it this morning for almost an hour.

Last night, grand mother took a picture of mommy, daddy and me. We look pretty good as a family eh?

my new stroller

Mommy and daddy brought me a stroller. Yesterday was my first time riding it. Before that, mommy used to take me to a walk by putting me into a career. I was a little scared when I first sit in it. Of course I got use to it very quickly. The weather is getting warmer in NYC. However, since I haven't gotten my immunization shots, grand mother wanted to make sure I dressed warmly. To be honest it was a little too warm. The temperature was 23C.

I love daddy

I love weekend because daddy is home with me. On Sunday I morning I didn't want to nap so daddy put in on the playing mat. It has animal like owl, bird and squirrel. I was so curious because when daddy touched them, they made funny sound. I was very curious

Last that evening, daddy gave me a bath. Before putting me into the bath tub, daddy washed my butt because I pooped (haha). We have this puj bath tub that can fit into the sink and allows me to sit on it. Puj bath tub. This is my first time sitting in it so I was a little terrified.

My new sleeping position

I woke up this morning and felt very happy. Mommy was changing my dirty diaper. I pooped ALOT this morning hehe.

After that I did some reading with mommy and grand mom. Mommy got me those black and white books which have pictures of various background. My favorite one is the picture of the fish.
 Grand mom then put me on the bed and let me did tummy time. I was lifting my head and turning it left and right. Then I got tired, and started dozing off. Mommy then gently patted me on the back. At first, I was still resisting to nap. However, it felt too comfortable. Next time, I will learn to sleep on my stomach in my crib.

I do nap during the day...

Mommy has been so worried that I do not nap during the day. It is true that I'm a hyper baby and doesn't fall asleep easily. Yesterday around 5pm, mommy put me into the carrier. She took me for a walk on the hallway outside of the apartment. I was feeling very comfortable and started dozing off. When we came back to the apartment, I put my head down toward mommy's chest. I could feel her warm body, and her breathing up and down. I was soon falling asleep. Mommy was so glad and she was able to nap with me on the sofa. I slept for 2 hours hehe. Here is the picture to prove. Can you see my little head??

 My god mother, Cindy visited me this afternoon. I was not behaving myself and being fussy again. God mother rocked me to sleep. I felt so comfortable. However, when she put me to my crib, I woke up in 15 minutes because I was hungry again... hehe

Finally, the weather is so nice today. Mommy and daddy took me for a short walk. Since I am still a little jaundice, it is good for me to get some sunlight. It is my first time out to a place other than doctor's visits.

Jasper loves grandmother and mommy

I love grandmother because she holds me all the time. When I cry or being fussy, she will come and "rescue" me. During the day, she usually is the one who puts me into sleep. I know when grand mom walks into the room. I also like grand mom helping change my dirty diaper.

Mommy is also learning to take care of me. She is doing a great job. Yesterday, I was feeling so gassy and was being fussy. Mommy gave me a "I love U" massage and helped me passed many gas. I felt so much better afterward and didn't cry non-stop and violently like before.
 Also  last night after eating "nene" (breast milk in chinese), I wasawake. It was already 3am in the morning and I knew mommy was tired. She held me for a while and I started to fall asleep. However, my eyes didn't close completely. Mommy put me down to my crib, put her hands on my chest so I felt very secured and kissed me goodnight. I slept all the way until 6am this morning.

Here are pictures of me looking at this classical mobile. Mommy's co-worker gave it to me  so I can look at it while laying on my bed. I was enjoying looking at it :)

1 month old Jasper

Time flies. I can't believe 4 weeks have already gone by. On March 3 2012, Josh and I took him to his 1 month visit. He weighted 8 lbs and 5 oz. For a long time, I was doubting myself for not producing enough milk. The statistics reflected the fact that we are both doing fine.

On the same day, we gave Jasper his first real bath. He was enjoying himself. Josh and I were so nervous. By the end of taking his bath, he was looking so comfortable. After this, he napped for like a good 2.5 hours.
