那么多时间?? 闷???
有个亲戚问Mummy: 你现在没有工作了, 那么多时间在家不会闷吗?
早上,
一大清早,
帮Eann洗pong pong, 换衣服, 包尿片,
然后拍拍Eann睡猪猪,
然后做早餐给自己还有给Daddy,
剩下一点点时间, 看看电脑, 找找资料, 看看eBook,
然后Eann 又醒了, 要陪Eann玩, 教教Eann算术...
中午了,
Mummy&Daddy的吃饭时间,
也是Eann的mum mum时间,
然后又要陪Eann玩, 教教算术, 唱唱歌, 讲讲话...
好不容易等Eann玩累了, 才肯睡猪猪.
下午时间,
乘Eann睡午觉,
Mummy可以写写部落格, 看看ebook, 看看书,
还可以做Options Trading的功课,
最近也开始与Daddy合作在eBay拍卖家里的旧东西.
傍晚Eann醒来了,
与Daddy&Mummy看看电视七点档,
然后又洗pong pong,
喝奶奶睡觉去喽!
一转眼, 已经是晚上9.30pm,
Eann的一天就这样过去了,
可是Mummy却还有一大堆东西还没有做好呢!
家务还好有Daddy帮忙分担,
Mummy自己的事情要到现在才可以开始做,
有option trading 啦, update Blog 啦, 查email 啦, 等等等....
直到半夜三更...
虽然整天都喊没时间,
可是日子却过得很充实,
比起以前时间很多却没有好好利用,
现在时间很少却完成了很多的东西,
也许现在时间少了就额外的珍惜吧!
Daddy也是过得很充实, 很有目标,
立志要做好Internet Marketing的生意,
学了很多也做了很多,
不象以前只想没做!
正朝着我们的目标前进...
要给Eann过更好的生活!
Eann, You Are Our Blessing!
Mummy & daddy love you!

The Danger of Baby Walker
Growing Up
When Will My Baby Start Walking?
Typically, they start cruising (holding onto furniture to walk sideways) from 8 - 12 months old, and start walking from 10 - 15 months.
These ranges provide a guideline to baby's development. However, if your baby is delayed in achieving these basic motor milestones, consult your paediatrician or physiotherapist for advice.
How Does My Baby Learn To Walk?
Your baby's body then awaits basic changes in body proportion - the legs grow longer, shoulders broaden, and the head smaller - making it easier to balance in an upright posture.
Walkind depends on practice. Babies must clock many hours of standing, cruising and walking with some type of support before they can develop the strength and balance to walk on their own.
Should My Baby Use A Walker?
No.
A walker does not help your baby to learn to walk. It is dangerous and potentially fatal. In fact, Canada has already banned the sale of baby walkers.
How Is The Baby Walker More A Weapon Than A Tool?
Baby walkers don't help babies walk earlier. In fact, walkers may even delay your baby's movement skill development or discourage him from learning to walk on his own.
Most walkers are designed such that babies are not able to see their feet while walking. This can slow down development of movement as they are unable to make mental connection that it is their legs and feet that are moving the walker.
Walkers make it too easy for babies to move around. Babies who are in walkers tend to explore and satisfy their curiosity without developing their balance or walking skills. This may lead to slower development of balance and walking skills. Studies have shown that babies who spent 2 hours each day in the walker were more delayed in walking than babies who did not use a walker.
Danger 2: Baby walkers cause abnormal walking pattern
The baby's legs are not straight when "walking" in the walker. The hips and knees are bent and he will tend to walk on tiptoe. This causes him to use and develop the wrong leg muscles for walking. Such abnormal walking pattern may be difficult to correct even when he is out of the walker.
Studies have shown that walking pattern of babies worsen with the use of walkers especially if they are already walking in an abnormal way.
Danger 3: Baby walkers can cause serious injuries
Walkers are unsafe. Babies can reac a speed of 1 meter per second in a walker, which is too fast even for an attentive parent to catch should the child speed towards an open door, down the stairs or towards a boiling pot.
So How Can I Encourage My Baby To Learn To Walk?
Discar the walker. Use a playpen or play-centre that is stationary. Alternatively, allow a safe, unrestricted floor space for exploration.
Help your baby exercise his muscles e.g. supported standing or cruising.
Provide sensory stimulation e.g. baby massage.
Provide vestibluar stimulation e.g. rocking, bouncing or swing baby.
Breast-feeding may help to strengthen baby's muscles.
What If My Child Has An Abnormal Walking Pattern?
Consult your doctor if you notice that your child is walking on his toes or on the sides of the feet.
