Here’s a film from when I was a baby. Try not to laugh too much.

Just got an invite to the private beta of Totspot (let me know if you want an invite). It’s looking to be an interesting social networking site for babies. And here’s some live social networking:

Well, I did it – made it into my thirties, and I’m still walking without the assistance of any medical devices. Yeah, yeah, I guess I’m overdoing it, but it’s still a big milestone for me. But as far as I can think of, I’ve basically done everything I wanted to by 30:

• Get a college education
• Get a good (and fun) job
• Get a beautiful wife
• Purchase a nice apartment or house
• Have a cute little baby
• Make a million dollars

Since I am already starting to work as of 25 March, we have decided to try feeding Maya with my expressed milk from a bottle.
I should say it came as a surprise to us that Maya did not take it. I totally understand the fact that a bottle and an artificial nipple are not the same as a breast, even if the bottle is offered by daddy.
I also read that some breastfed babies won’t settle for anything less than the breast, but life is life and I have to start working soon and really hope that our little girl will take the bottle.

Gosh, now when I think back to a time when Maya was born and I faced a challenge of her latching on the breast, I thought the feeding problems would be over once that is solved. Oh how was I mistaken. Another day, another challenge. Heh…

On a brighter note, my mom is coming this friday and will stay with us until Maya goes to kindergarten in September or so.
