3 Months Old

Time really flies. My maternity leave is up and Janine turns exactly 3 months old today! Somehow, when you have a baby, you realise how fast time flies because the change in time is so evidently seen by baby's size and developments.

Janine is now 6.1 kg and about 60cm long. She seems heavy, almost doubling her birth weight at only 3 months when babies usually double their birth weight by 6 months. In any case, I am thankful that she's growing well :)

Juggling between work and family, I am so thankful for how God has answered prayers just within the first week (ie. last week) of returning to work! Somehow, when I bring Janine for meetings and all, she's been very well-behaved and literally sleeps through them all. This is somehow not very true when she's at home! I see it as an answered prayer :)

Having 2 kids, I now understand what some mothers mean when they say they feel bad because they cannot spend the same amount of time with both kids as they did for their no.1. Especially when Janelle is still at a very cute age, and Janine is also very cute, I can't help but feel that I can't fully enjoy both my kids' cuteness because my attention is divided between them both!! Yet on the other hand, you can say that we are doubly blessed with 2 cute kids. :)
