花童

在 Gotti (godmother) Tin 的婚禮當花童。一個沒有守好本份的花童。

在行禮之際睡了。

在撒花時爸爸媽媽沒有抱她出外。

在拍大合照時嚎啕大哭。

在拍紀念冊照片時又睡了。

幸好 Gotti 抱她時沒有哭，還在她懷中睡著！

BlumenKinder (G) / FlowerKid (E) (Kinder in Chinese means also kid, and Noémie's Chinese name is kid, the literal translation of her Chinese name is Summer swimming kid)

Noémie is not behaving well enough as a blumenkinder at Gotti (godmother) Tin's wedding...

She fell asleep during the ceremony... (And at the most important moment)

She was still inside while other blumenkinder were throwing flowers... (But this is papa and mama's fault, they didn't bring her outside quick enough)

She cried non-stop while taking group picture...

She fell asleep again while we were taking a picture for the booklet...

BUT, the second time when Gotti Tin hold her, she didn't cry anymore and even better she fell asleep in her arms!

弄薯為樂

媽媽弄薯，童愛薯！

一個有機新薯、一方牛油、一點奶（Aptamil）混在一起便又一新口味，薯蓉！

童愛死了薯蓉，簡直可以用欲罷不能來形容！平常盛有胡蘿蔔、蘋果梨、牛油果香蕉或豆的小湯匙送到口童會乖乖的張口，但媽媽從沒見過她會這般要求下一口。她會不停的伸手拉我的衣服，我轉頭看她之國際，小口已張得大大，小小的舌頭亦已在等候狀態！一匙送到口到嘴裡便立即‘莓莓莓’，小舌頭伸出又伸入，完了又張口。直至整個小瓶份量都吃清光為止... 上星期吃三文魚蕃薯時，一口氣幹掉三份二小瓶，我以為反應已算熱烈，我怎也想不到能有比這更熱烈的反應！

我終於明白什麼是‘黃口無飽期’。

給童弄吃的準備工夫很多，尤其是豆！一大盤豆 puree 後只得一丁點... 但，看著童那愛吃的樣子，便滿足！

餓吧！童！


Having fun with Potatoes

Noémie loves potatoes, and mama had fun with making potatoes.

1 organic potato, 1 knob butter, a bit of milk (Aptamil formula) mixed together a new taste for Noémie - mashed potato!

She loves potato, I can even described it as if she is dying for it, she enjoys eating in general. Usually she will opens her little mouth when the filled up small spoons comes in front of her. Carrot puree with basil and mint, apple and pear puree, avocado banana mix, and even peas, she eats all of them, no complaint! But this time, with potato, she's really asking for the next spoon. I can see her really tasting the food, once the food was inside, she really 'chew' them as good as she can, the tiny tongue coming in and out. Then she finished the whole jar... last week she finished 2/3 of the salmon in the same jar, I thought this is already a great step. Until now, with potato, I know it's nothing!

Noémie has a small mouth, but she opens wide and eats like a crocodile!

It's a lot of work to prepare her food, especially peas, I bought a big pack, but after the peeling, steaming, puree, that's all I have got... But, once I saw her happy face and the little wide open mouth, I don't mind anymore!

Keep on the hunger! Noémie!

柏林穹蒼下 HIMMEL ÜBER BERLIN

還是帶了電腦，就寫吧！

12小時旅途，安全到埗！

駕程 8 小時，沿途我們停了四次。童很乖，窩了在 car seat 很長時間，哭鬧是有一點，但一點也不過份，就算有點過份，媽媽也可以理解。有一小段路，我們還‘偷雞’把童抱了出來，好讓她舒展一下。好動的小朋友不停的左轉右轉，我差點以為她會在車廂內學會爬... 7.30pm，喝完睡前奶也乖乖的窩在 car seat 內就寢，丁點‘扭計’也沒有。

柏林，我又來了！

Finally, we brought along the computer, so I write!

We arrived safely after a 12 hours journey! And Noémie is doing very well!!

Net driving hours is 8 hours, we made 4 breaks in between, Noémie was stuck in the car seat for very long time, of course we stretched her during the break, but the maximum was only 45 minutes. She's a bit whiny but we thought it's reasonable, we could understand that! We even let her out and let her sat on my lap for a short distance while we were on the highway. This active baby also made me believe that she will learn how to crawl inside the car cabin... She was moving around non-stop, touching the window handle, scratching the seats and so on...

As usual, 7.30pm she was behaving well with finishing her bottle and then fell asleep in the 'cosy' car seat once we started driving.

Berlin, I am back!

東主出遊．暫停營業

放暑假！！

明早8.00時開車住柏林停兩三天，再往波蘭參加 Kristin 的婚禮。Kristin 是米米的 Gotti (Godmother)，花童是童！ 為免加重負荷，決定不帶電腦，因此暫不會更新 Blog，回來給大家看花童照！

7月14日 ﹣童六個月

我的體重：62千克 （懷孕前：52千克）--- 沒有變過！但明明能穿回很多舊衣服... 怪！
童的體重：8610克，67厘米長，頭圍47厘米！腳丫子11厘米，大腳八！

光陰似箭日月如梭，童已六個月！

還是肥波、還沒懂轉身、不會行、不會走、不會爬。可是會坐、會站、會 sleep on the side、話很多、吃到腳腳、還吃很多！有時更會一覺睡至大清早，爸爸媽媽不用再晚晚半夜三更爬起來餵奶！可能大腿太壯，第三次打針沒有哭，只喊了一點點，好一個勇敢的女孩！還打兩邊呢！

媽媽正式開始了給米米吃固禮食物。童不再抗拒，有時遇到喜歡的還會自動張開口！米糊是基本，菜方面，她從胡蘿蔔開始，接著是蘋果。一星期後，加入了焗三文魚混蕃薯，生果方面加入了梨（媽媽還混入雲呢拿）、香蕉和牛油果。以上所提及的食物中，她的‘飛佛’是焗三文魚混蕃薯，爸爸得知後說一開始便愛魚，果然是我的女兒！現階段還是只吃一兩口，還是比較喜歡奶！

正正在7月14日收到加拿大護照，米米終於是一個有身份的人！我們也給她買了九月份去香港的機票，很緊張！！

糯米米．夏米米

認識了也是從香港嫁來生日又是 9 月的 Joyce，家有兩位少爺，一位老爺。見面多了發現大家有很多相同之處，除了以上幾點外，就連小朋友的中文姓氏也一樣 - 夏！真是他鄉遇故知，難得難得！

媽媽有時還是叫童作糯米糍，Joyce 則喜歡叫童作‘挪亞米’，叫著叫著，我說倒不如叫她做夏米米！晚上告訴爸爸，他倒喜歡糯米米。現在我們有時會簡稱她為‘阿米’，聽起來不錯吧！

前天媽媽膽粗粗，弄了梅菜扣肉，㷛了花膠湯，邀請了Joyce 來品嘗！Marki 一下走到童身邊環抱著她，還親她呢！童也少有地沒有反抗，他們倆非常可愛！‘痴線佬’也有溫柔的一面呢！她跟 Fabi 會玩和搶玩具，但從沒有這樣靜靜的對望！大哥哥真的不一樣！梅菜扣肉的前一天（對！我們見得頗頻密，Joyce 的夏先生還笑說我們像剛談戀愛的情侶...），童彎身拾荒時（新嗜好）Fabi 還忍不住抓她的頭髮，後果當然是童在哭，媽媽們邊哄邊笑！我說我們認識得正好，可以讓他們仨玩在一起，打打架、搶玩具、手拖手。最重要的是可以練習說廣東話！！！八月份，米米跟 Fabi 會一起開始 Gymboree 的 Level 2，還有可能一起去游泳班！

小朋友是很可愛，可是總不能整天只一個人對著他們，可幸有人跟我分享、投訴一下、請教一下、商量一下、shopping 一下、吃吃日本菜、說說大人話！我不得不說一句：Joyce，真的很慶幸能認識你！互勉之！

*尊重 Joyce 的意願，大小二少都沒有露面！
