Father & Baby

9-Feb-2006:
SM is due to leave for London in 3 days time. After that we'll only be able to see him in another 3 to 4 months time. By then, Dominic would've grown up and changed so much. It's sad to think that his father will be leaving him when he's only less than 2 months old.
This afternoon, the sight of father and son taking a nap together captured my heart. It's amazing how Dominic bonds with his father even though I was the one who carried him for 9 months. He likes it when his dad cuddles him. Dad's magic touch never fails to put him to sleep. And there's also the smiles and gurgles when dad plays with him.

By now, Dominic is 7 weeks old and starting to "talk" back in conversations. In fact, from about 3 weeks old, he no longer cries when he needs a diaper change. He "tells" us when he needs a diaper change, which sounds like "Yow!". He stops "yow-ling" once we've touched or peeped into his diaper and acknowledged that he needs a diaper change.
