Parenthood :)

Finally nw i can say this: it's really not easy being parents. Parenthood has taken on a whole new meaning ever since Matthew came into our lives. Before he came, it was all juz theorical knowledge -- learning hw to bathe & breastfeed bb, wat r bb's needs/demands, buying fanciful clothes or toys for bb, etc.

Nw dat he's REALLY right here in our household, it meant a THOROUGH hands-on experience for us all.

For a start, Bebe & i hv pretty much become Daddy-&-Mummy-PANDAS!! We've slept so much lesser than before, having to wake up at unearthly hours like 3am or 4am to bottlefeed or breastfeed Matthew, and another 3hrs later for his next feed. Other than dat, we hv to change his wet/dirty diapers, which our dear Matthew has an "odd" habit of poo-ing (lots!!) in the wee hrs of the morning!! Imagine a groggy & sleep-deprived Daddy or Mummy trying to change his diapers as fast and as clean as we can & then put him back to sleep, or else if Matthew gets into his "all-awake-mode", then i'll be having a hard time trying to coo him back to sleep, since Bebe still has to wake up early to go to work later on.

Having said dat, we're still very, very happy parents :) Cos nothing can take away the joy of seeing ya own baby happy, clean & well-fed. We truly love him to bits & as all other parents hv advised us, we're juz gonna enjoy our little one as much as we can, in all these beautiful moments... :)
