(2005) Brides of year 2005

jam,
hahhah... very xiong hor...
for me, cos inez reject milk since start of ccc. so she only drink 2 feeds of milk in school, i save a bit on that. but diaper and pull up pants very fast finished, so gotta stock up when got offer then not so bad.

wow.. good that your hb is those hands on type.
mine is almost hopeless kind.
must call then move type and do things really slow that i cannot tahan.
so end up, i do everything.
even till now, better lah, but cannot depend on him totally one.
if i come home late, the most he does is cook porridge (ingredient i prepared in adv, he just dump in all and cook with the rice grain). bath inez and make her sleep. so i come home still got a lot of housework to do.
this is also one of the reason that i quite determine to stop at one.

at times, really tell him off that he totally hopeless. no help at all.
then he "wake up his idea" so for next 2 weeks will auto help me... then after that back to square one again...

newbbi,
enjoy your trip.

me gotta wait till next march to go club med. 2nd trip with inez. after gave birth never go holiday just two of us alone leow. hee...
 


mornin all..

newbbi- enjoy ur trip!!! talkin abt disciping kids, actuali i qte thkful tat we stay on our own so no interference when we ttyin to discipline aldan.my dad esp wil gv in to watever aldan wan once he starts to cry! say no gd for him to keep cryin.

crystal- i beginnin to worry hw aldan wil behave once meimei is out. he is super super sticky to me nw! n slpin arrangmt also headache cos he dun like to slp on his bed so nw share a bed w us.

jam- u nt bfg le ah? ur hb gd leh stil volunteer to bathe ur boy! mine scared he wil injure him when aldan was a baby. only when he was older thn he bathe him. nw i got prob sittin dwn to bathe aldan so becm his job. hehe
 
crystal, hmm ya times realli flies my boy now 5mth+ le!!going to b 6mtn in 2more wk! mi ar change to look more auntie...hahaha!last time use to go out wif fren now i hardly go out wif them le...cos priority is my boy now! ya lo nv see my son b4 hor...wait for ting ting gal full mth hope i can mk it so can catch up wif u gals! frankly speaking i lazy to go out ever since i hv my boy so mafan!
 
when u gals tok abt hb, then i must realy be thankful for mine.. sometimes i think he is a better daddy than i was a mummy.. so i better pay trbute to him! haha.. when isaiah ws born n CL was ard, he insisted to learn frm CL hw to bathe isaiah n he wld bathe him whenever he was on leave even though CL was ard.. every nite bath hb wld bathe him.. so until now isaiah super close to him n once hb comes home from work it's all abt e kids liao.. so i am v v thankful..

ting - i think isaiah is extreme case.. u sld be happy aldan stick to u altho he is in school? hee.. buti think u gotta slowly "force" him to stick to hb more.. like last time isaiah v sticky to daddy, dun want me at all.. then i just force myself to bring him out alone, even he cry for daddy when we both at home i just try to do sth fun with him etc so he became better tho daddy still his fave.. if not u will have to manage 2 clingy kids like my hb.. she had to carry #1 in one hand n bf her #2.. no joke lor.. actually e 4 of us squeeze on one queen sized bed.. hahahaha
 
jam - keke.. i still go out with frens occasionally now.. initially also never one.. hee.. but after a while i realise i need some me time also then i can be a better mummy.. hee
 
jam,
sme loh, i also no chance to go out with friend leow.
even if go out, i thinking of inez, and usually the 1st to leave.
agree loh, supper ma fan.
next time more ma fan when he is on solid, you gotta cook before gg out.

till now, some time i still cook for inez when gg out cos at times, she dun want to eat outside food. i also cook for her everyday when she return from ccc, so is another additional tiring job. hahah...

crystal/jam,
i really envy you all with hb being hands on.
tell you gals, once my hb alone in the morning took care of inez when she is abt 8 or 9mths old. then i working half day, they come fetch me in the afternoon to go for lunch.
my god, my hb can wear inez clothing on the wrong side. shd be back, he wore it in front.
talk abt bathing, he only start to bath inez when inez learns how to walk ard 15mths.
 
crystal- u all small size mah can squeeze in the bed! hehe... nw tat aldan slp w us, we find so squeezy liao! n he alwz like to kick the daddy n end up he gt to shift n slp in awkard position thn nxt mornin, bodyache! haha
ok shall ask my hb to do tat! bring him out or play w him more esp nw he gt more time to do so! at hm, he prefers me thn daddy.
 
linda - i think u can "train" ur hb.. it's coz u cannot wait tt's y he like tt.. if u learn to wait he will have no choice but to do it leh! dun spoil him too much!
happy.gif


ting - yes, u sld.. let him noe tt daddy is also fun to be with.. coz if not u v jialat.. sometimes gotta force one.. even if they cry, u just persist lor.. tt's wat i did..
 
okies.. me gg out liao.. chat tmr.. today i v notti.. not working but stil asked my dad to take care of isaiah so i can go out! i am such a bad mummy.. hee. isaiah was taken off my hands at ard 11+ just now.. hee..now gg out..

chat tmr!
 
hi gals! me oso long time no log on liao..

jam - so fast ur boy turning 6mo soon.. how i missed the those days when kid was small n easy to handle haha..

linda - i was luffing when i read the part on ur hub wear wrong side clothes..

same as crystal, think i gotta be thankful to my hub altho adele sticks to me more haha.. but at least he baths her when newborn, chg diapers when poo (i hate to clean poo!), feed her, make milk wash sterilise pumps etc.. he even manage to brg adele out twice on his own in car seat to cum n meet me when i was on 0.5day! achievement liao coz i was worried she will scream away when wif her daddy alone haha..

linda - u shd hv #2 then ur mindset will chg abt leaving inez in other ppl's care (like crystal).. my cousin told me why im so uptight abt adele now (like go out meet frens muz quickly go off) coz shes one n only.. when hv 2kids, mindset will chg coz cant wait to get outta the hse n hv sum me-time!

ok, adele screaming away nw while i 1 hand typing away.. tty all again..
 
morning all..

janf - keke.. i think must strike a balance between me time n kids.. also in my case coz isaiah is v difficult so i feel i am more patient with him if i also have some me time..
i was just telling my hb if caitlyn was our #1, i think we wld nebver have been prepared for isaiah.. coz caitlyn is slightly easier.. though she got sharper butt n is actually nottier.. but she is not so fussy

usually 1st 2 days of the mth and last 1 week of the month will be a bit more busy.

saying abt staying at home with kids, sometimes i also dunno what to do with inez leow.
usually she will want to watch hi5 or barney. so i just sit or sing/dance with her loh.
then sometimes, she will want me to do colouring ansd drawing with her.
toys... nowadays she seem bored with all her toys leow.
 
twin, oh, then that's the one which is completed first so u prob be one of the 1st ones to receive keys.

yup, so fast hor, even Adele look so big in her blog liao.

crystal, me ah, normally when's she awake, half the time spend feeding, bathing her liao. normally morning i bring her down for a walk or go to the playground. noon time aft her lunch prob spend reading, playing masak masak with her, drawing.
no la, sometimes i oso find it so tiring to entertain her all the time till I wana lock her in the playyard and surf net. the only time i can surf is while she's aslp
 
hi gals...

crystal- hw's mei mei? i agree i also duno wat to do w aldan at time. ahhah.. at least wkdays he's in cc so only at nite, play w him n watch tv tog. wkends usu we go out. but realise nw super tirin to bring him out cos he runs ard everywhere n refused to be held or carried!

pierced- shiok hor. my hb also free nw. hahah... but stil givin tuition. everyday can cm meet me for lunch.

ting, ya man, super shiok not to think about wk. haha...
me gg Perth this Sat night till 16th. Driving down to the South. with my mum and Uncle's family too. So Megan officially celebrate her bd there. keke
 
pierced,
me too, can only surf net when inez taking nap or sleep in the night.

ting,
same as inez loh, nowadays we got difficulty chasing after her when go shopping.
very tiring loh.
 
linda, ya lor, so most of my surfing is at night otherwise even sometimes during nap, there are so many other things to do

for megan, luckily she still can sit in her stroller so can push her around. I tried once without stroller and she wana go all over the place. aft that, no more. must have stroller otherwise, i can never go shopping.
 
pierced,
me same same as you. if weekends, usually morning will accompany her play, do her drawing or go downstair playground. then when she nap, then start do my housework and eat my lunch.
when done, just sit down wanna rest awhile, abt time she wake up leow.
so usually surf net at night.

inez also ok to sit in stroller.
but hb said that let her roam. so he is the one chasing after inez.
if myself. i will ask her to sit in stroller.
hahahah...
 
pierced- wow so nice!! we also plannin for our nxt hol. haha.. but tinkin where to go cos w a baby in tow, nt much places le...
gg til 16th ah, thn in time to cm bk celeb anni the nxt day. hehe.. so fast hor, 4 yrs le!

pierced/linda- so gd tat megan n inez can sit in the stroller! aldan refused to! so the stroller becm storage plc liao. haiz..
 
Linda, ya lor, i can't tahan chasing after her coz they are very curious now and everything wana grab and look.

ting, ya lor, good to plan ahead. hee...true with 2 in tow, hard to travel far plus troublesome. somemore it's even more expensive. Imagine paying for the airtics x 2!
 
ting,
she has no choice. cos since baby till now even she dun like also gotta sit in stroller when necessary. she is used to it leow.
when young, we keep her still by puting toys hanging ard the stroller. then when older, with her chow chow and tu tu.. or sometime give her thing to eat. she is fine with it.

even carseat also, since baby sit until now. so we have no problem with her. she just need her tu tu ans chow chow... she can sit quietly leow.
so since young, hb got no problem fetching her alone. which i think we are lucky inez not fussy also lah.
 
pierced,
ya loh... chase until no mood to shop. sometimes, just wanna faster go home and always end up empty handed.
even go supermarket, we also headache. she will run every where. cos she dun like to sit in the trolley.
 
Linda, megan same lor, since young she been put in the car seat and stroller till she so used to it. supermarket luckily she likes the trolley. so far she's quite easy to handle. I just brought her to take the bus and lrt train on Mon. she like suaku coz first time. sit there quietly.
 
pierced,

same loh. inez also used to it leow.
hahaha... so cute.
inez very curious when i first bring her on bus and train.
she looks everywhere. but din make noise lah.

i was telling my hb, nowadays children are so fortunate, most of them never get a chance to travel in public tranport. if there is chance, they are very excited.
 
pierced- no lah nt takin air plane. wil wait til meimei is older thn we go further. hahah.. so nw is only drivin hol niah.

linda- haiz.. aldan since young dun wan to sit in car seat til nw. unless gt biscuits but he cant sit for too long also. i reali hopin meimei wil nt turn out lidat!
 
Linda, ya that's why for Megan it's like something new, never sat before on a bus or train.

ting, ya lor, maybe u can try driving up to penang next or go kuantan. nice!
 
ting,
hee... my hb dun give inez any chance since young. she can fuss and all. she still have to sit in her car seat. my hb is those safety 1st kind of person. dun forget he is a fire fighter.
sometimes, he go fetch my sis and my niece after his class from my sis mil house, my hb ask her to put her in the car seat. my sis say never mind. and my hb come back and nag at me loh.
say dangerous lah.... blar blar blar...
stroller, also the same.
so days go by, she used to it leow.
 
pierced- kuantan nth much rite? maybe genting again. hahahha... weather v shiok

linda- v gd leh. tink we nt strict enough to train aldan to sit in car seat. n he tends to struggle so much tat face wil be red n keep cryin n coughin thn wana puke kind. haiz!
 
ting,
inez was like aldan also.
then we gave her her tutu and chow chow then she is ok.
so much so, now in car seat, she must have her tutu and chow chow.

one reason that we insisted inez to seat in the carseat also because the car seat is so ex. so must make sure make full use.
in fact we bot 2.
one is from infant to 1 year or up to 10kg. the current one is the 2nd one from 1 to 4 year old.
boh car seat add up cost us abt $800.
so really must make sure she seat in it.
 
linda- wow u stil buy 2 car seats. we KS bot the one which can seat up to 3-4yo so no need to chg. must reali train meimei to sit in there! even nw the cot also no use cos aldan dun like to slp in there.
we stil gv aldan tu tu too. my coli was tellin me aft 1yo wil be v difficult to wean off.. i also duno when he wil wean off tat. but he usu only ask for it b4 slp. thn middle of nite if wake up, i jus pop into his mouth n he wil go bk zzz..
 
ting, kuantan nothing much except beach and seafood. nearer altern will be desaru. ya for weather genting and cameron shiok. haha...

linda/ting, same i bought the car seat that can sit up to 4 yr old Britax but really make use of it so worth the money paid. Tt time bo bian at first coz didnt buy n den hb was in germany for 4 mths. so i needed the car seat for safety and can bring megan out on my own.

ting, can wean off la even aft 1 yr old, megan now finally off tutu liao. aft 1 yr old she only had it for slp n only when she has nightmare. so not sticky. i told her i threw away and she dun bother to ask.
 
pierced/ting,
initially wanted to buy those up to 4 years but at that time maxi cosi dun have those from infant to 4 year old kind and my hb damn fussy.
want to buy nice one then the car seat base must make sure dun cut his leather, colour must match his car etc... so both my car seat are black and grey in colour just to match the car.

as for tu tu... i wanted to waived inez too. in ccc, she dun need it at all even at nap time.
then come home only will want to eat. then in car seat also she will want.
stroller depends. if morning when i bring her to school she will want. if like shopping kind. she dun need.
 
pierced- i tot shd be easy to wean bah.. smtimes he dun even need it for slp. i ask if he wan, he wil say no no thn pass me the cover to put it bk. haha! at least nw he can tell us wat he wan. even milk also. so much easier for us! thou at times stil duno wat he's talkin/mumblin abt. keke

linda- win liao ur hb! hahah... my ILs offered to pay for the car seat so we jus bot unisex color. hehe
 

morning all...

linda - ur hb is fire fighter so naturally safety is of utmost importance.. plus it's his precious daughter leh!
happy.gif


pierced - wld u happen to have the contact of scholastic book club??

ting - my mei mei is like ur aldan lor.. sit car seat or even sit anywhere like asking for her life like tt! but we slowly training her now lor.. eating is such a headache.. when hb n i eat alone with 2 of them somehow both will need attn.. hw to eat in properly? haha..
