pvl,
i also restrict him from going into kitchen. but sometimes if i holding his hand, i will let him in (with supervision) as kitchen is rather a dangerous place. we have a swinging door which he loves to play n this might swing if wind v strong.
then got hot water around...
He knows some things cannot do but he kind of purposely do, u know cos he will look at u for yr reaction whenever he touch the thing, eg switch...
yesterday the drama boy again in action. he walk n fell down lightly on the tiles, he whines n then move over to the carpet n cry pitifully with his head on the floor... somemore choose the floor soft 1 to lie down... cannot tahan...

ben looks so grown up now... wow... so different from last time...
smurfy,
yah, i agree that the fees are very high, but my hubby say just 2 months, so what the heck. haha... also, we talked to some pple, and they were telling us that quality prog really makes a difference in the child. My hubby say of all the childcare we have visited, he was surprise by how well behaved the other kids are in this kinderland. yah, i think if i got 2, cannot afford also... haha... so we were toying with the idea of having one, but have to see how along the way... we want a bigger age gap also, mayb 3-5yrs.
When my PIL are back, i am hoping to put him for half a day, but my in-laws are kinda against it.. see how it goes first, want to use that 2 months to test how much ryan can actually learn....
Jelly,
For half day, I think it's ard $550 after $75 subsidy.

zz is so cute.... haha... making of a star... haha..
i dun really allow ryan into the kitchen also, there was once i was making milk and he quietly open the cupboard and took out a glass plate. When he called out to me and handed me the plate, I got a shock cos he was really quiet and i didn't even realise he has done so much things without me knowing...

Chocbabe..Sorry lah Cant help but must say this..
do give young teachers a chance..usually they are early childhood edu. diploma grads (tend to be less "proud" than their degree couterparts)
I started out as a young teacher too leh..haha.
Wat they dont hav in experience (yet) they make up in knowledge n heart n ideals.
Honestly..I'm comfortable with young teachers cos they are fresh..n have lots of energy..older teachers some of them are very tired out after years n years of working..I find they dont do as excellent a job as some younger teachers..
I observed this when I worked in a childcare for a couple of years..hehe..plus I've been to many centres for attachment in my 3 years study.
Wah childcare fees are getting more n more ex!
PVL..Ben has grown up leh..much more hair! Hehe..I love his big bright eyes..nice shirt!
OIC..hope yr hb gets his license soon! U both r the less usual couples where the wife drives but hb doesnt haha!
U used to live n NZ? Hmm I didnt know..
I've been to Cameron..but long ago when I was young..too young to remember.
How about Fraser's Hill? U've been there?
Peko..bigger pic pls.
Is tat the S'pore Flyer?

Smurfy,
Wow, sounds like Qy's allergy is really severe leh. There are lots of ingredients in chocolate cake. Have you tried other cakes? Maybe it's not the chocolate.
chocbabe,
Eh, what school are you in? Heh heh. I remember those days. Mark til 3 am!
garfield,
Ben is exactly the same. He will purposely do something wrong and then look at me to see what I would do. His hands will be 'scratching' his neck area because he knows I will take them and spank them.
charis,
I was in NZ for 4 years. University mah.
Frasers Hill is beautiful. I love it there too. Boring if you're looking for exciting things to do, but nice for a quiet rest, walks in the woods. Last time I went there was in 2001. We used to use that as a halfway point on our long journeys up to Penang, ever since BEFORE the NS Highway was completed!

peko,
Yes, indeed, very very pretty! Lovely big eyes.
fat_babe,
He's quite attached to me, but he's also very independent. He'll go off on his own if we let him walk. When he needs comfort, of course, only I will do.

hi ladies,
waaah.. peko, your girl is very cute! Love her mesmerising eyes!
PVL, Ben is such a handsome chap! He looks so serious but yet he's got a cheeky sparkle in his eyes. Such a cutie!
Heyhey, your hubby doesn't have a license? Call me silly but aiyoh, I would never date anyone without driver's license 'cos I don't like feeling like an ahmad.. kekekeke.. I used to have to drive an ex around and it drove me NUTS. After that, I swore never to date a non-driver. Whenever the husband is around, I gladly let him take the wheel. I can't believe you did all those trips in the US DRIVING ALONE!!! WOW.. just once again reminded of what a wonderwoman you are. Your husband appreciates all that you do or not? You're just so capable.. sigh.. wish I were half as capable as you!
Noses -Beth has a button nose so sometimes we call her Buttony..hahaha..
smurfy, QY has a good little heart.. making that old lady's day

hiya.. good morning..
charis,
yah, my hubby and I also discussed that qualification also impt. The kinderland we chose, all the teachers have diploma also. But basically, when we went for cc hunting, we wanted to see how the teachers interact with ryan and somehow, he just doesn't click with the less experience ones... when the experience teacher wanted to carry him, he instantly put his hands forward. So I guess it's not so much about young or old, or dip or deg, but rather how well they can handle kids and how ryan likes which caregiver...
Ryan still a bo guay also... only 4, 2 more on the way.
PVL,
I teach in a catholic secondary school near hougang mall.... hehe... u know where??
Took very little pics of Ryan this month cos we were busy house hunting. Here is little Ah Beng walkng in the malls...

peko,
Ben has 8 teeth, + 2 more bumps showing on his upper gums.
Catz,
Hahaha, yup, I'm the 'ahmad'. But my hb doesn't depend on me to drive him around. He gladly takes public transport. We had mostly a long-distance relationship, so I didn't drive him around much. And when we dated, he would always meet me at our destination rather than have me pick him up from home. In the US, he took bus to school (free for students) even in the middle of winter. YUPPP, he appreciates me, and tells me so very often
. I enjoy driving, not superwoman lah! I attribute his not learning to drive to his parents who never encouraged him to learn when he was younger.
My ex-boyfriend used to have his own car. The problem with that was that we often ended up driving 2 cars to our dates because I felt it was very inconvenient for him to come all the way to my place to pick me up (he lived VERY FAR away). Then we would drive ourselves home afterward. Not so fun
. So there's pros and cons lah.
