Baby Kievan is: 1 month, 1 week & 5 days oldBaby Kievan is getting cuter and cuter day by day. I love him so much I can't explain how it feels like. Totally unconditional. A mother's love is really great. The kind of love is so overwhelming, that you can... well, basically give up everything just for your child. I finally understood how my mother, how all mothers felt. And I have the deepest respect for all of them.
Like for instance, I used to love my sleep, without 12 hours of sleep, I would feel so unlike myself. But for my baby, I don't mind all these nights of broken sleep. I could sleep like a dead log in the past, but now I would wake up to the slightest sounds that my baby make.
I used loved to shop for myself, to doll up and look good. But for baby, I rather save the money to buy his stuff. And myself? I look like an old hag honestly. My pretty clothes don't fit my anymore, my hair is always tied up (FYI, ever since I had long hair, I never tied it up even when i'm at home) and fatigue haunts my face.
There's so much difference in me and my life ever since baby entered my world. But everything I do or give up, is so, so, so worth it. I know there would be no regrets later on in life. All baby have to do is to look or smile at me, and i'll be so happy that nothing else really matters.
Okay, enough rambling, time for pictures of my prince!

My smiling darling.

Baby always look at the person feeding him, probably trying to start recognising our faces.

Presenting... Super Baby! (the hand posture *wink*)

He's so sweet isn't he?

We were cleaning up his poop while taking his picture. *giggles*

So is this picture, see how patiently is he waiting for us to freshen him up.

Poor baby inherited my eyebags, sorry darling.

Joey tried to capture his smile, but was too slow. This is how he looks like one second after he smiled.

I think this picture is hilarious. Look at his arms! *lol* He's flailing his hands while Joey snapped the camera, that's why it's blurry.
I forgot to mention that I played with baby for one whole hour today. He was sort of sitting on my lap while I sang his loads of nursery songs. And he kept smiling at me! He really did. My baby is such a sweetie.
And here's 3 pictures of Mommy Ingrid. These were taken on baby's 1st month celebration. I edited them into black and white because the original color is quite horrible.



PS: I had makeup on. You're going to freak out if you see me now.
