Hi everyone, my name is Naomi Chen Xuanning and you can call me Mimi for short. That's how Mummy always called me. By the way my Daddy's name is Vincent Tan and Mummy's name is Sally Ng.

I was born on 7th Jan 2008 by induction at Thomson Medical Centre after 40 weeks of gestation. My birth weight was 2.55kg with a length of 48cm and head circumference of 33cm.

With tender loving care from Daddy and Mummy I've grown!

Developmental Milestones

This post was meant to be posted on 7th December as it was Naomi's 11 months old birthday but things get by too fast and I didn't had a chance to do it until now.
Well my girl is 11 months old now and in three weeks time she will be ONE. Wow that's unbelievable as it seems like just yesterday when she came into this world. Life are way much different now as compared to the earlier stages of her baby life. What she is capable of doing now is so awesome...
She is able to stand up on her own from a siting position and if you held one of her hand, she is able to walk although not in a stable manner yet. She is excited about this new acquired skill and started to roam around the house freely with the help of anythings she can get hold of; like a small stool whereby she puts both hands on top and started pushing and walking. This can be quite a hazard sometimes. Her sleeping habits also changes. She do not want to be carried or rock to sleep now but preferred to hold onto my hands or lay on my thigh to sleep. She would also woke up in the middle of the night crying and pointing at our bed signalling wanting to sleep with us. And the moment we put her onto our bed she stops her crying and sleep. What a good tactic she deployed. She was also able to respond with actions on certain words that was spoken to her. Example when asked who is the clever girl, she would clapped her hand or she would point to her shoes when we told her we are going out.
All in all , she is learning and absorbing at a fast pace which we are amazed by it. Thank God for this gift. Below are some pictures taken on 7 Dec with the Sesame Street characters.
