anZel should be living in Deutschland

Written by beeber on September 3, 2006 – 10:22 pm -

When anzel first came home with us, I read up on Dr. Sears’ book. One thing that stuck in my mind is that I should “anticipate” our little man’s needs. At first, it seems easy to do. Feed him before he cries bloody murder…change him before his bum is marinated.

I carefully documented every feeding for anZel (yes, I am a nerd) in order to anticipate (and protect my ear drums) his next feeding. I would heat up the bottle about .5 hour before I think he would be hungry. If I do it JUST right, he would take the bottle and I would feel Bob Barker calling my name to play “Price is Right”.

However, MANY TIMES he would arch his back when he sees the bottle in sight. It’s a BLOODY KILLER when it’s 3 AM and I just want to get him fed and get back to bed. So, I do what I could to calm him down by singing, rocking and talking some sense into him without waking myself up (I know, who am I fooling?!) Sometimes this process takes 5 minutes and sometimes it takes 50 minutes. Yes, 3, 4, 5 hours may have passed but “no mum, it’s just not time”. Yes, he only had 7 oz for the past 10 hours. AND “NO MUM, it’s just not time!!!” Then I realize…anzel has an internal clock that runs like Deutschland train schedule! He will take the bottle at the precise moment that he thinks it’s the right time. Not a millisecond before or a millisecond after.

anZel rolls back..2006/08/27

Written by jlz on September 3, 2006 – 11:22 am -

anZel was able to roll back from stomach to back this time…I would watch the first 10-15 seconds. After that it’s pretty boring. :)

anZel’s playdate - Tori

Written by jlz on September 3, 2006 – 10:10 am -

Our friends Triston and Heather came by with their 5 month old daughter Tori yesterday. We met each other in the birthing class almost 7 months ago.

We had a great time chatting and playing with the lil ones…Here are a few pictures of the two kids playing together…

It’s kinda funny to see anZel next to Tori. We’ve been thinking that anZel’s head is getting pretty big. But next to Tori, he’s just a lil bean!

anZel and yi-xiu monk

Written by jlz on September 1, 2006 – 10:39 am -

Found this picture on the web…yi-xiu monk is an old anime that I saw when I was a kid…it’s about this little monk who’s really smart and courageous, etc….

We thought anZel looks a bit like him after his head’s been shaved…
