When Miss Kiki was younger, she was so curious and were willing (and wanting) to try all kids of food. This picture is a proof! This was taken in March, just over a year ago.

I remember when she was barely 6 months old, she hadn't even started her rice cereal yet, she would be staring at whatever I ate. Strawberries, rice, oranges..... She would give me a pleading look and lick her lips. Then she started eating cereal, veggies, fruits, eggs.

Then something happened. I'm feeling slightly guilty because maybe when she was at that curious age, I didn't feed her properly, and without a schedule. I know I sometimes forget to feed myself, so I wouldn't be surprised if I had been late in giving her food more than a few times. She sometimes doesn't want to eat, she started rejecting food, and had rapidly lost her baby fat and barely gained any weight in the past year.

She had a period where she would only eat burger patties, and then sometimes just sausages, and then just croissants. She still would snack on defrosted green peas, and she used to looove green onions. Now she is slightly better, but not much. She loves eating fruits: strawberries, mangoes, kiwis, pears, apples. And she also picked up not so good habits like anything chocolate, bottled ice tea, and demanding those things from her grandparents to top it off.

If I could turn back time, I would probably like to pay a lot more attention to what she eats and the eating schedule. I wonder if that would make a difference. But, since I can't anyways, I should really try to move forward and slowly work towards healthier eating habits for me and for her.

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Labuan Bajo 2023 Part 3 - 3 Days 2 Nights Diving Trip With Chakana Liveaboard

  Photo credit: Lukas Rissing @thestudypacker A live-aboard experience is one of the highlights of Labuan Bajo. It has been on my bucket list for a while but every time I tried to go, something just didn't work out.... until now! The opportunity arose to join an impressive-looking boat this year and the dates matched Miss Kiki's holiday perfectly, how could I not take this rare chance! With less than a month to prepare, we booked plane tickets, accommodations, and whatever equipment we thought we might need. So off we flew to Labuan Bajo with little preparation and a lot of faith. ;) You can read the first and second parts of the trip in my previous posts. After we checked out of our hotel on the third day, we went to the pier and hopped on to a dinghy that took us to Chakana Liveaboard, a 47-meter-long phinisi-style yacht that was going to be our accommodation for the next two nights. My heart raced as we approached the pretty boat and spotted a group of staff excitedly wavi...

World of Ghibli Exhibition Jakarta 2017

A few months back I received an email about World of Ghibli exhibition in Jakarta. My skeptical brain immediately thought, "Aah, how good could it be... I've visited the museum in Mitaka   and it's probably not going to be any better." Fast forward to August, a few of my Japan loving friends mentioned that rumours said that the displays are very good, made by Indonesians in cooperations with Ghibli representatives from Japan. In fact, so good that the Japanese company plans to take the displays and give them a home in Japan. Well hearing this from several different people definitely piqued my interest and I decided to check it out. It turned out that Miss Kiki and DH also wanted to go so I bought tickets from Traveloka  because they had a sale.  In the morning of our visit day, I asked Miss Kiki if she wanted to dress up as Kiki when she goes and she excitedly said yes. I made her a red bow headband with Cotton and Steel's Supreme Solid in Bandana  ...
