The reappearance of the mitten

Over the weekend... The princess made a wonderful SSS (spoken like a true civil servant... HAHAHA) when she saw her bay brother stuff his fist into his little mouth. She said to wrap his fist in a towel and he will not stuff his fist anymore.

So mummy took her suggestion and improvised it thus we wore the mitten on the baby's fist again...

So here is ah gong, all jolly not realising what is about to happen.... So finally the gloved fist attracted his attention and he stuffed it into his mouth...

What?! u meant its going to taste different even though its cuter?!

Hahahaha... anyway, babies has this need to suckle on something to soothe themselves so since mummy refuse to be his pacifier, he rejected the pacifier we bought for him so now he has to suckle on his gloved fist... My main objective is to prevent him from eventually learning how to suck his thumb which I believe is a harder habit to break compared to the pacifier.

This is what I saw when I eventually removed his mittens on the way to grandma's house... See how wrinkly his little fingers are? The mittens were only a step short of soaking wet...
