Mad Rush..

Meet up with Erin and her cousin at Compass Point yesterday coz both of us wanted to make library cards for our kiddos. But it was a mad rush for me coz we were actually supposed to meet on Tue, but my dear friend have got another appointment. So I rushed to get home from work, rushed to get DS laundry into the washing machine, rushed to bath, rushed thru my dinner and rushed to catch the bus. Upon reaching there, we roamed ard Kiddy Palace coz we wanted to get some presents. After that, we decided to get our library card done. It was such a simple procedure but we were told by the librarian that we need to borrow 4 books first to entitle for our free gifts. So after borrowing our books, we proceed happily to the counter coz we were wondering what freebie are we entitled to..Imagine my shock, when the librarian juz passed to us 4 recyclable bag!! I was kinda of disappointed coz maybe I expected slightly better things than the recyclable bag ba. But luckily, Erin really makes my night better coz she such a true friend..Hmmm..too bad she was rushing home, else could have had coffee with her and continue with our talk. Seems that we both of plenty to of topics to talk. Anyway, roam for a short while before we both heeded home.

I love shopping!!

Went to Baby Fox @ AMK Hub yesterday coz decided to buy more clothes for DS again. DH this time didn’t complained much while waiting for me to make the decision which to buy (how I wish I have $$ to buy the whole shop down..Hahaha) coz I told him the clothes are on sales..and also, I suspected that he likes the clothes design that I have chosen for DS. Brought 6 pcs of clothes for DS @ only $70.90..cheap rite? This time round, decided to buy more polo tee for DS coz all along, I have brought him T-shirt..Time for a change!! So got him 2 polo tees, 1 sleeveless T-shirt, 1 short sleeve shirt, 1 pair of long pants and 1 pair of shorts. But I have forgotten to get the socks for him which I have wanted to get for him. Well, if I’m going again this weekend, perhaps, will just grab a pack for him..At the rate I’m spending $$..I declared I’m broke. Oh, how I wish money will grow on money plant!!

DS fav. activity..

DS now have a fav pastime that is to try to attempt to walk around his playpen. He simply loves to walk from one corner to another..But to complete that small 1 round of walking, I have lost count how many times he needs to fall and how much effort he needs, to attempt to stand up and try again. Actually, I realized how I used to give up on things easily. In the past, if I encounter any difficulties or problems, I would either choose to ignore or simply give up without really trying to attempt to solve. Maybe, I should learn from my son, regardless of how many time you have fallen, as long as you try..one day you will definitely be able to do it!! Just when I thought, children should learn from adults..At time, maybe we should try to learn from children too..Hahaha :)

Rain rain go away...

Rain again..It has been raining for the past week..Think our Mr. Golden Sun is away for vacation..Hahaha. Just hope that tonight the rain will stop because I really hate to pick up my DS on raining days..Reason?? DH never knows how to shelter people properly with an umbrella. Always ended up getting wet also and I hate that type of feeling. Think going to start DS soon with porridge coz too many people have been asking me why DS still not on porridge. But come to think of it..Those ang mo kids also never eat porridge ma..oso all pui pui wan..So if I feed DS with porridge, does that means he will put on weight? Nia, just think aloud out to these qn. What matter most ultimately is DS health ba. Will ask Dr. Koh to comment on DS weight during his next appointment.. But I think I know what Dr. Koh reply is going to be like. Hmmm..maybe me juz like to hear words coming from his mouth ba..afterall he’s a Dr., therefore more reassurance.
If weather permits tomolo and I’m not very lazy to walk to the market, shall go and buy the bar-tau to cook DS porridge in the slow cooker. Else, I’ll juz let DS try the Brown rice which sis passed to me the other day but I’ve kept forgetting to give DS. Think must give him a change in food variety ba, coz he’s getting older now..can’t be eating the same stuff every time.

KTV session

Yesterday night, went to Part World KTV with Shannen and her husband. Its been a long time since we (me and DH) been to a karaoke. As usual, most of the new songs..I’m only familiar with the chorus. But my friends, Shannen and Chris were great..They knew how to sing most of the newer songs.. Actually, me and DH wanted to leave earlier coz we were afraid that we couldn’t catch the last bus back if we stayed till 11pm..so we wanted to wait for the bill to be settled first before we leave. Then comes the shocking part..The final bill came up to abt $60 plus.. At first, I thought the staff have did not minus off Shannen $40 discount voucher, that’s why so ex. Went to the counter to check with the staff and they showed me that what Shannen has was not a $40 voucher but rather a 4hr off voucher. So after all the ++, its works up to the final bill. Then Chris asked which credit card have got discount and they said HSBC, so Chris paid thru that credit card. But when we re-calculate the bill, we realized that that no 10% discount was given. So again, I went to checked with the staff again and was told that the staff made a mistake.. So not pro are the staffs over there. In the end, me and DH decided to stayed till 11pm and by the time we reached home, already 5 minutes to 12am. Finished everything and headed to dreamland ard 12.45am… Very tired and stone today. Hahaha. But me and DH did have a fun time singing and the best part is Shannen and Chris can tahan my lousy singing..Hope to have another KTV session with the rest again.

Summarize of weekend event

Another weekend gone just like that. Was supposed to go to DH friend house on Sat afternoon but was cancelled and ended up staying at home. But Sat, Jayden fell from the bed while he was having his morning nap. I didn’t know what happened coz I was watching TV cum resting and DH was doing his stuff. Then all of a sudden, we heard a loud wail and saw that Jayden on the floor liao. Quickly, went to pick him up and comfort him while DH was busy checking did he hurt himself badly. Thank goodness, nothing serious and we are still monitoring him.
Sunday, brought him to his 8th month photo shot at United Square. After that, went to Pizza Hut for lunch and I let DS sit on the high car to see us eat..The tiam chia boi oso wanted to eat..so I gave him bits of chicken slices juz to let him taste and keep quiet. After lunch, went back to the photo studio to collect the pic and we walked to Novena Square as we have not been to Velocity and also the Square2. Actually nothing much there and think not nice to walked coz the aisle at Square2 is so narrow. All the shops are so close to one another. After a while, decided to walked back to United Square coz car was parked there and we need to go to AMK for dinner. Oh..went to Fox babies for a while coz they are having summer sales, but couldn’t get anything nice for DS and DH was getting impatient. After dinner at AMK, was hurrying DH to go home coz I was so tired and it was already drizzling. Back home, DH initially wanted to put a mattress on top of DS existing playpen mattress..but DS surprise us when he suddenly grip the rail and stand up..Woa..so dangerous that we scraped of the idea. But DS now can still managed to stretch himself and hold onto the rail and support himself and he really enjoy his little achievement..

Yesterday, was on MC coz of my stupid flu bug and having a soar throat.. Glad to be back to office today, not because I love to work, rather is because Ido have a temp forum to chat in and I gets to yak all day again. Hahaha. But the stupid thing is that I couldn’t log into that temp forum. Don’t know what happen to it. Cannot be I forgot my username. As for my password, might have a slight possibility that I have forgotten it coz normally I don’t even log out from my co. comp. whatever!! Going to have sumptuous dinner tonight, but don’t think I will enjoy much coz of my throat and also I miss my DS..

My Darling Boi

Movie Date

Went to watched Transformer with my hubby last night at Eng Wah AMK..I know a lot of people have already watched it and we only managed to watch last night. But its ok to me coz its been a long time since I watched a movie (ever since my DS was born, I have no time or chance to watch a movie), plus the movie tickets were cheap as Eng Wah AMK is having a promo now. Tickets cost us only $10 and I think if u presents them with a newspaper ad, you will get free popcorn and a drink. But I forgot to bring along the newspaper to redeem my free popcorn and drink. Sharks!! The movie was already though I got a bit lost somewhere during the fighting scene where all the transformers look the same. Kept asking Hubby, who is bad who is good? Hahaha… Also, as I was rushing to catch the movie at 6.15pm..we didn’t managed to buy anything to the cinema to eat..ended up I was quite hungry throughout the show. After movie, Hubby and I went to the coffee shop for dinner..I ate my Fish and Chip while Hubby ate the Hor Fan.. Then its Home Sweet Home to do some housework.

Nov mummies gathering at my place

I invited November forum mummies to my small little house on Sun afternoon (15/07/07) for a gathering cum babies play session. Actually, mummies is supposed to come ard 4plus so that can have more time to chit chat ma..But a lot of mummies came later than that..Only zhen & family was punctual..Think her family came ard 4plus. First time I meeting some of the mummies at my house coz I missed the first gathering at United Square. Didn't talk much to her coz I was a bit shy and she is also those type of shy shy type..and moreover, DS was getting very grouchy. Other families (looney and Virgo) starts to come ard 5plus and that is when things get more lively..maybe that is because Looney started the ball rolling and with more mummies & babies
(jjon and family was there too) participating..it gets better lor..Then came Bubble and family..The minute she came..she was super busy..coz she the chief for the baby menu..So I have to help her a bit..but think i more of a entainer than a helper..Hahaha.. Oh..think Puala and family came ard the time when I'm helping out in the kitchen.
By the time, Bubble finished with all the steaming..its time for babies to eat..Some babies took the porridge well, some didn't.. Well, DS took a bit but think he was not hungry coz DH gave him cereal at 4plus..ended up DH ate the porridge.. After a while, time for the adults to have dinner..we ordered pizza but couldn;t eat much coz was busy entaining and looking after DS coz again he was a bit grouchy coz he wanted to sleep. The guest went off at 8plus and I must said the gathering was a success coz I think I got to see and play with all the babies, DH gets to know who are my forum friends, and DS gets to play with all his playmates. Shall look forward for more gathering!!




Jayden learning how to crawl

My darling boy (DS) is now 8mths and 3 days old..and currently he is learning how to crawl..But give him a flat surface to crawl on he doesn’t like or rather, give him some obstacles eg, bolster, pillow etc to prevent him from crawling will be more challenging to him and he loves it…Last Sunday nearly had a fright of my lift..coz DH went to work then left me and darling boy at home..As I will be inviting guest over to my house later in the late afternoon, decided to mop the floor again when DS was asleep.. Halfway through, I heard the tsk tsk sound made by DS..so I knew he was awake already..BUT..I don’t want to do my housework halfway..so decided to quickly finished up before attending to DS..And guess what when I finished my housework..DS was already lying beside the bolster and watching me mop the floor..I was like OMG!! If he have ventured further up, he will definitely fell from the bed and that bed was super high lor.. I quickly carried him tight and from that moment on..I knew that now DS crawling skill has improved from the previous week and that we must now watch him carefully to prevent any mishap.
