Aidan's One Month

Cousin Aidan is one month old! Well, my nephew, Asher's cousin :)

My parents organised a one month celebration for Aidan at Temasek Club and invited some family friends :) We had had another gathering over new year for our relatives.

It was gonna be challenging for Jon and I cos we hadn't attended any dinner events since we settled Asher's night routine. He's got a bedtime routine that works like a charm, and we were wondering if breaking from it would spoil his routine. We decided to experiment by juggling bits of his routine around and see if he'd still settle to sleep. It worked! Mid way through dinner we settled him to sleep in his pram, and he dozed off without a squeak! We were so pleased and proud of him :) That allowed Jon & I to go most of the dinner without having to worry about him.

I was really so pleased! That meant that we could attend other dinner functions as well!

Aidan, the star for the night, is super adorable and cuddly. We all agree he's very nice to carry :) Such a perfect, cuddly bundle!













The two boys got passed around and around as everyone took turns to carry them, and they were quite obliging, relishing all the attention. No stranger anxiety yet! Anyway, on a side note, it's really hard to take pictures of babies, especially two! Getting them both to look at the camera at the same time is quite a feat! :)


Asher, look here!











Aidan, don't cover your face!











Ah, finally!







Asher had his first lo hei too! It was almost Chinese New Year, so yu sheng was on the menu :) Yum yum! I always look forward to this dish during CNY!


Why are they throwing food around?









Anyway, all this is just a foretaste for the many celebrations to come in the following years! They aren't even 1 yet! There's the 2 month anniversary, 3 month anniversary, 4 month...Ok ok, I really don't think we're gonna celebrate every single one of those, but you get the idea :)
