First 10 days..


The initial days are always the busiest. Getting the hang of latching, into a routine, changing diapers etc etc. Luckily DH was on leave for the 1st week, so we managed some time to take pictures of Nigel as well as Valerie. Look at the difference in size! I totally forgot a baby was this 'tiny'.
So far Valerie has been really sweet to Nigel. Can tell she is a doting sister coz whenever she hears Nigel crying via the baby monitor, she'll inform everyone that baby is crying and will dash upstairs :p
Valerie is also helping me out. E.g. she'll help me take the diaper and throw into the dustbin. At time she also offer to hold Nigel's milk bottle (but we didn't let her coz she wldn't know how to feed) or put the pacifier in his mouth. When Nigel cries, she'll also say to him "baby dun cry" and then sayang his face etc. She was even willing to give Nigel a soft toy when he was crying.
Valere is so sweet.. and both of us feel so blessed to have her.. every single day :-)
