gosh my last blog was done 23Feb and the entry was for 8th Jan! i have uploaded lots of pics esp covering all cny celebrations but sadly today its already March16th! everyday i do log in but sadly i never got to open any of my pages to start typing... i was kinda lazy and busy at the same time... i was again at the GIVE IT UP stage.... i dun even load my pics as religiously every week! my camera cards are FULL thus i have sit here to download them...so what kept me busy?
2 kids. but i still have some time on com but i have been thinking of ideas for my new house. my gal's birthday celebrations, finding dresses for my sil's dec wedding for my gals and me. sourcing for my gals' educational stuff, daily wear and pretty wear...
Sha asked me to type something jus type without pics cos she wants to read... thats why i am back!
Sha you kept me going.
Sadly as i wanted this new blog to capture new chapter in my life, as a mother to 2 kids... 2 kids = more laundry = more bottles = more attention needed to spread between 2 kids... = less time for myself and i do have to crack and seriously enjoy cracking my brains to create stuff... the thing that i can do and keeps me happy... i wish i could cook and bake like Sha! but now paper and pen is my best buddy!
checking in on FB and occasional chats with my friends is luxury! my window to the world
when gx told me he's at serangoon garden 2 nites ago, out for beer and work discussion... he say he pack supper for me... i told him to go village and i want my favourite holland V pizza thats has a branch there.. he asked how come i know theres one in this new building that i have never stepped into... cos i told him my friends check-in and i also travel all over the world with friends who updates travel albums...
talking about travels... i am so blessed... we got a postcard all the way from Santaland! Irene and hubby was so sweet to send my gals a postcard during their Finland trip! me and gx chomps on vodka chocs and also we were given a valhorna choc bar that i haven open... From Japan, M&A got our gals disney minnie mouse stuff! cute bib for baby A and a little hair bow for baby R! Yet to try the orange and honeydew kitkats! thats not all.... yesterday Dap popped by to see the gals and gave them each a cute wolly knitted hat from her taiwan trip! made the 2 gals very happy! Dap got baby A a pair of very cute socks and they arent any socks! they were Peter Rabbit socks! arent my gals lucky! i am so thankful to these people who had us in mind! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
my last travel is really donkey years ago... gx goes on working trips every year... me dun even get time off from kids... gx say my wish came true... cos now i have my truly to myself a little gal who only wants mummy and nobody nobody but ME! to irritate me further, gx sang Nobody nobody but U!
my baby A is a sticky glue to me! when i leave the house everyday to have my precious 15mins me time but this is spent walking or rushing to take train or bus to get to pick baby R up and some bonding time with baby R alone before hitting home total time 45mins... baby A would cry till her face turn red, deafen my mil's ears before sleeping when she knows i left her... but it got better cos if timing is right, i keep her awake all the way till i leave so she naps and give mil time to do chores while i am away... but with this March 1week school hols... i wonder if she would start her screaming cries again or calmly accept that i left the house... fingers X!
i have so much to say... so much has happened... happy sad uplifting and down moments
baby R has grown alot and baby A is 5months and counting!
hopefully when baby A turns 6mths old next month which is actually in another 2weeks on April 1st... hopefully i can do an entry to describe my little chilli padi, my maltose, my little chubby chubby crybaby which i nickname Hum Baobao! Cantonese for CRY BABY but sounds like hamburger.
So i have a PiDan and a Hum Baobao!
Gx clashes with Baby A cos she cried crazily in his arms and he raised his voice at her and that got baby A crying even louder and gx gave up being with baby A... they are still working out cos gx hates that she is so untouchable! on weekends... she clings on me and doesnt allow my mum to carry either! she is very different from baby R! baby R at least i have some rest for my shoulders now i have to rush thru dinners! can't take my time cos when she cries... the moment i take over... then she stops if not its deafening! my mum say her lungs are so powerful! imagine!
i have not yet compile baby A's photos into montages and she has no videos at all! baby R's 2nd year i started but i have not opened it up to add on photos... time and hands .... no time no hands to do it!
R is still maximising her Terrible 2... jus this week... gross but she has done terrible poopoo stuff in the toilet when i left her there alone to either handle baby A or occupied for jus that couple of minutes doing something while she should be sitted on the potty... thats how bad and i have started using free balloon sticks as cane... sadly no choice but to use that to control her behaviour cos she is so stubborn and PI!!!! told Dap i'm like stephen chow's kung fu movie Bao Zhu Po! sometimes she boils my blood till i shout at her - think my neighbours up and down a couple levels all know her name! Patience yes... i should be but try and be in my shoes and tell me if its possible! haiz... i want to be a nice mum but my gal knows how to push me to the edge!
she is not all horrible... this gal is still a sweetheart... she is. we always make up by nites and there would be lots of hugs from her... nice words from this little one - prob 80% she means it, 10% is sometimes used to soften me so she dun get scolded cos sometimes when she chooses to tell me nice stuff its when she has done something wrong and 10% she is in a super good mood. so 100% she is clever!
in school she is doing well. according to the teacher, she catches on songs fast and teacher asked if i taught her all the songs she is taught in class and i said not all and that impressed both her english and chinese teacher! She also participates actively when teacher asked the class questions and i was told she is way too fast in answering every question that the teachers sometimes has to stop my gal and ask her to hold her answer first so that other kids can have a chance to think... gx is super happy to know baby R is doing well but i am pretty worried... i am not a KS mum who force my kiddo to absorb knowledge but my gal from young loves learning which is good but i wonder if i can keep up with her and wonder if her little friends will outcast her! kids nowadays are so smart unlike my days ... she is so friendly that other kids is afraid of her...
so much to say... BUT
i need to end
need time to grab a peaceful bite while they are still sleeping... throw in their clothings for wash and hopefully able to load the pics and create space in camera and hp before the weekend...
best thing baby R said to me one late afternoon when she woke up from her nap
Mum, i will take care of you and also take care of baobao...
worse thing that happen so far for 2012.... bad news for my mum eyes... deteriorate with age and she now has to get use to having a dot in her vision... no laser or ops can help... the only thing i could do was to introduced bilberry juice to mum (ex-SAS col got some bad eye prob and told me before this helps...). Sure hope this helps... another sad news is my aunt is down with 2nd stage cancer... praying hard for her to recover and hope cancer stays far away from her.... haven heard exactly whats going to happen... gog to get baby R to give her prob a stalk of flower tomolo when we visit to cheer her on...
Good things to look forward to : May we are suppose to get our KEYS to our very own house!
Gx and i had a talk one nite from 12mn to 3am on how we want our little 3rm house to be... its going to be simple and we arent hacking anything or spending $ on ID but we do have ideas on how we want the house to be! am pretty excited! clue : our kids will be happy! we are creating space for them!
events in upcoming months
if i live to 70... i am half way there next month!
in May baby R is going to celebrate her bdae a few days before school closes for June hols! she is very excited and i have lots to prep for it = thats what i have been busy planning but i will b busy preparing soon!
then hopefully we can get our house ready by her 3rd bdae that happens to fall on Sunday to have relatives and some friends over to cheer for her and sure hope she drops the Terrible 2 trying stage and move on to be Terrific 3!
now i can just hope they nap on while i get things done and have a great weekend before baby R returns to school on Monday!
