LOTD: I survived CNY with an infant

I have no idea why people can be so excited about "recouping" during CNY when newly weds finally have a baby. Honestly, it was so exhausting. Baby was over-stimulated and his sleep pattern was very affected. It was really tough even though I had a very smilely baby. Initially, I was very excited about dressing him up. 

But it grew really tiring for both me and baby lol because i) his grandparents (on both sides) were overzealous to show him off, ii) relatives were extremely eager to have a photo with him as though he is the CNY mascot LOL! and iii) it was hard for me to keep him in pristine condition throughout. 


I have to admit I am quite proud of the looks I have dressed him in. This was his look for Chu 1. The theme was food. So check out his pineapple top in teal from Anak & I ($25) as well as his mini cloth ice-kachang shoes ($16.50) from Reveriebelle. His shoes in particular received a lot of "oohs" and "ahhs" from our relatives. The mama here was bursting with so much joy that all effort made to dress him up was worth it, haha!

One of the biggest life saver was his bunnies bandana bib ($10) from Reveriebelle. Baby has reached the drooling stage and I have to admit it would have been so difficult to keep him dry if it wasn't for the bib. The bunnies bandana bib came with minky dots at the back. To preserve his clothes, we pretty much handwash his clothes. For his shoes, I wipe them after each and every use. Tip: Go for 1 size up so that you can use for a longer period.


Chu 2, I went for an unicorn theme hehe. For the photoshoot, we all wore the same designed masks because I reckon it would only be during Covid season that face masks can be taken as a statement piece. Hehe. The little one was wearing the Aden Unicorn Bamboo Onesie ($16), matched with unicorn 3D socks.

On Chu 3, baby messed up his clothes. He gave his father a "nice slab of gold" and we had to change him. My Mum washed the Unicorn Onesie and it prtty much dried overnight cos the material was so soft and light. :D We paired it once again with the ice-kachang shoes and he looked dapper too! No one knew someone had a bit of a wardrobe malfunction moment. :P Will be sharing more about our travelling aids.

** We will be having a giveaway from Reveriebelle, so stay tune~!~
