Lucas loves to sing when he is happy. He used to sing ABC song, but recently, I find that he sings 'I swear'...
His voice is so tender when singing this song. Even though 'I swear' are the only two words of the whole song he knows how to pronounce, I am very impressed, this is one of my favourite golden oldies.
It reminded me that his cousin Isaac loved to sing 'That's why you go away' when he was 4 years old. He could sing the first two sentences - "Baby won't you tell me why, that's a sadness in your eyes..."
Kids are cute!!

I have two babies
Suddenly I have a weird feeling, I just can't believe I have two babies now. Life is a miracle, but for me, they are more than miracles. Even though we experienced all those hindrances in pregnancy and child birth, I know that God love me a lot, he sent me two precious little things.
Linus is gaining weight. He is 2.6kg now, and performs well in milk-drinking, since we have switched the teats from Pigeon to NUK. My milk production is excellent, everyday is a good harvest day. You see? The whole system operates in perfect harmony.
See these two young men in the pictures, I am wondering how they look like when they are 20. I will be no longer young, but hope that I still look fab effortlessly with good composure and great fashion sense, and they will be proud of their mother. ;)

Linus's 12th day - Getting heavier
The doc told us Linus can come back home tomorrow. Hurray!!!
Our room had been transformed in a perfect nursery room. The crib and all baby stuff are ready. Jeff had set a heater and a humidifier to control the room temperature and humidity. We had also selected the outfits for him. Everything will be fine tomorrow. Jeff joked that he will bring along his camera and all lighting equipments also, he will take loads of photos when baby is discharged.
Linus finished 80 ml milk in one feeding this morning, when I fed him in hospital. He surprised nurses because he can only have 60 ml/ feeding in last few days. A nurse said he is a good baby when I am present.
I am proud of you Linus.

Linus's 11th day - Getting heavier
I feel quite exhausted but insist to go hospital twice. Linus can come back home soon, so I should try to feed him more, under the guidance from nurses.
He is a good kid, could finish the whole bottle both times.

Linus's 10th day - I can feed him again
What a good progress Linus achieved. Today I could bottle-feed him by myself, he could finish 60ml.
This evening, when we were going to hospital with Lucas, the damn traffic jam trapped us on the road for an hour. Luckily nurses allowed us to see Linus even we missed the 'visit time'. This was the first time the two brothers met. Lucas stared at Linus from the window, and kept saying 'Dei Dei'. Seems he likes his little brother.

Linus's 9th day - Left the incubator
Well done Linus, he could stay with other baby in the nursery room in the 9th night. Yes he is still tiny, but you can see he is getting well-built.

Baby-mo
I hate reading those Hong Kong pregnancy or parenting magazines. They just drive me crazy, the content is usually about abnormality during pregnancy or diseases threatening children, or how to cultivate a little genius in order to enter elite schools. Come on, give me a break.
What a surprise that there is an exception in the market - Baby-mo. It is a Japanese parenting magazine but the translated and tailor-made version is available in Hong Kong. All topics are interesting in Feb vol., such as DIY hairdo for babies, 10 mins recipe, etiquette for family visits during Chinese New Year, etc. Not to mention that all baby models are adorable!!
Highly recommend to all mothers.

Lucas and his most favourite cartoon - Little Einsteins
Lucas is an artistic baby. He loves drawing, reading, music and Little Einsteins.
It is a series from Disney and the Baby Einstein Company launched for preschoolers. 4 little kids - Leo, Qincy, June and Annie travels over the world (and the universe) with a little rocket. All journeys filled with classical music from Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, etc, is a fantastic educational tool.
I was surprised when Lucas said the word 'allegro', after Qincy said so, and he is excited when seeing all those music notes.

They look alike
Lucas and Linus look like each others. Both have parents' distinctive features (=P).
The picture at the left hand side is Lucas in his day 1, his skin tone is fairer. Linus is at the right hand side, he is a bit darker, but nurses told me probably it is because he is premature and blood vessels underneath the skin are very obvious.
I am so proud because I have two handsome sons!

Linu's 4th day - baby in incubator
Linus's experienced some ups and downs starting from 3rd day midnight, he had been sent back to a incubator for extra caring. Thanks god he is stable again inside the box.
I have delivered him some breast milk in the morning and also night time. The nurses suggested me to touch him and talked to him while standing outside the incubator.
Surely we worried but have strong confidence on him. He is a tough baby, I am sure!
Linus, I will come again tomorrow. I am learning baby massage, I am sure you will love it.

Linus's 3rd day - Mammy will wait for you at home
I couldn't hold back my tears when I discharged from the hospital, leaving Linus there for a few more days, hopefully.
The nurse was very very nice and allowed me to take photos of him before I left.
Linus, mammy is waiting for you, I will prepare the best breast milk for you.
Linus's 2nd day after birth
Linus was very well in the 2nd day, he could leave the incubator for quite a long period.

他的名字叫天立
我同Manki已想好了弟弟的名字. 叫"天立",有沒有特別意思?當然有啦.
子日""吾十有五而志於學，三十而立，四十而不惑，五十而知天命，六十而耳順，七十而從心所欲，不踰矩"
Manki 生天立正是三十(sorry! 說了你的年齡:p) ,至於呢句點解,自己google下啦.
還有"頂天立地",堅強正直之意.
