SQ: Their toys are mostly in the playroom. Trying to place more toys downstairs cos they're usually downstairs.
She knows I'll give her only 1 gummy, so she's savouring it slowly.. Hahaha.. But so messy leh.. Yesterday her friend gave her an entire packet of the pastilles gummy. And while I was upstairs, she finished the entire packet! *faints* And then she struggled to finish her dinner after that.

Anna really worships her dad. The first thing she does when she wakes up is to ask where he is. And she's been waking up earlier and earlier cos she knows if she wakes up later, daddy would have gone to work.

[shopping_queen]

got to go. catch up 29

 

[astro_pro]

kaexin: ok. pls help me change the size. thanks

aa: that i have tried and it works. coz teng used to be unhappy in school.. but now.. whenever i picked him up .. he is as chipry as a lark.. and he wld say 'mama, we go mall?'etc.. coz i told him i wld bring him to the mall if he behaves in school.. which he oes.. so that is not an issue.

today i tried something different. he was screaming.. wah liew. drama.. he went bersek screaming at home.. scream and scream for the sake of scream kind.. then i hold on to his legs.. as he tries to 'run away from me'.. then he shouted painful. i told him only when he calms down then i will let go. he calms down wants a hug.. so i hugge dhim. haiz.. then bribed with a sweet.. he calmed down. then in the cab. i told him . if he is quiet.. and dun cry to school.. the teacher will give him a lollipop.. i will also give him a lollipop..he behaved.. so i must fulfill this.. seems something is working here.

SQ: teng is v guai without miser/ellie/my mum around.. with me he is aso quite guai.. in lv.. in the actual centre itself. he lagi guai.. but at home. he goes berserk.. seriously wondering what is wron gwith him..
well i think.. ye wants to stsay at home because yh get st to stay at hoem. just like teng.. belle last time also like that.. well.. for me.. teng has to learned to disassociate that with going to school.. i will perservere lor.. not guilty abt asking him to go to school at all, me..

 

[kelley]

yvonne: mst be loh.. bt i also wana go see.. mah.. haha

sq: ok.. thanks

 

[tituteo]

sq
aiyo... can totally feel for u re ur nephew's attitude towards ye. sian. i'm so glad we're out of that situation now. and yeah, the lady approached me to carry on the bp for her actually. heh. so doing it for fun. you can spray directly on the beds b4 letting them sleep. maybe let it air a little bah. do it every 3 months for maintenance.

 

[autum]

Joelle
got another product for u to source. I went EJ CC this morning n the P saw he got big mozzie bite so she told me abt this spray but very exp! One can is $39! But she says it's very good wor. Same concept as the bug spray, it's toxic-free so can just spray into the air even when the kids are there. And she even spray to show me. There is a nice fragrance. She says buy from clinic wor.

The name is weird n not pronounceable de. Koihh or koinn something. Dark blue can. U think can find? Heh heh. Cos I see that u enjoy holding BPs n help us source for good products. But no obligations ok. Find if u have time.

 

[mmqq]

SQ, did tian really cried? not really la. she oni lao2 gai2 a bit nia. after few seconds then she ok le. we ok to let her eat the gummies, she eats very slow also la. ok de.
but this YE eats gummies like 10 times faster than she eats her normal meal. my god. and never see her vomit gummies too. oops.

astro, SQ, i think kids have mood swings also bah.sometimes not feeling like going to school. or nany's place as well. normal bah.
this am tian also said she wanna sleep somemore. i force her to wake up.
for schooling, wanna sleep is not an excuse for me cause when they grow up also must go school. but if they are not feeling well, then got to be careful.
and hor, i haven't settle my tian's love for school. i hope she likes her school next time. purple train still no news. sian.

 

[ecmom]

Mummies,

[kelley]

[kelley]

[astro_pro]

QQ: this teng has learn to tell 'lies'.. or come up with excuses.. when he realised he needs to go to learning vision soon.. he will say ' i dun want to go learning vision. I wanna go hospital.. becuase i have fever'..so is he sick?? haiz..

 

[kelley]

astro: ashlyn also does tt.. ok.. i too free in office today.. all my post! hahah.. bt if i retreat.. i wana go see what to buy at leapfrog!

 

[tituteo]

autum
the spray sounds similar to this bio-x leh.. then why need to source?!! bio-x is cheaper ma! it is oso used for mosquitoes and leaves a nice fragrance too. oso can spray in the air as a deodorant and disinfectant! so how many bottles u wan?

 

[edde]

QQ, u r the #2 in my maid Q before u got a #1 liao! pink is #3 mummies here all fast hand fast leg de

pink, i just sounded my maid out.. but looks like she is really not keen in looking aft infant/baby... actually i can understand lah.. coz for this past 1.5yrs, she hardly has a gd nite sleep

huingee, i rather be the maid of my own house/family than the "maid" of others if i go back to work, it will def be more than a half-day job

 

[huingee]

Kelley,
I think pinkpink Leia's got tag junior.
Today's Dylan birthday. Actually wanted to bring him to zoo, but raining.
See how later bah.

 

[autum]

Joelle
but this bio-x doesn't get rid of mozzie le. Then hor, spray le got the foamy thing, not just dry spray, so it's difficult to spray in the air le. I do like this bio-x for the anti-ant effect but for that we spray on table top kitchen walls etc not spray in the air le.

Anyway if u happen to come across then can let us know bah. Kekeke

 

[kelley]

pink: how is the tag junior.. any gd?

 

[huingee]

Edde,
How about working in tution centre? Now adays chinese tuition is very popular. Good to work part time. Put me in your maid's queue too.

I'm can't be SAHM, if I'm one my kids and hb will suffer. Cos i will loose temper easily as have many things to do and now i don't have patience with kids.

 

[kelley]

Huingee: so since Dylan bday today.. u took leave ah. happy bdya Dylan!!!

 

[astro_pro]

oh! happy bday dylan!

kelley: teng is impossible these days.. always 'lying'!

 

[wiky]

Happy Birthday, Dylan!!

 

[huingee]

Kelley, Astro,
Thanks.
Ya, took leave today.

 

[kelley]

astro: if u thnk of it.. they r quite smart to find other reason to take away them "going to sch".. hahah.. i was amazed n giggling when she tells me different excuse.. cos i thnk quite funny.. to me.. haha

Huingee: no special celebration?

 

[astro_pro]

kelley: ya.. at times i am amused.. i will reply 'go hospital? sick huh? fever? want take med??'.. then he ignores my want to take med part.. and just say he wants to go shopital coz he has a fever.. ha.

wah liew.. HEAVY downpour.. dunno how to bring teng back .. gosh..

 

[huingee]

Kelley,
bringing him out later, will bring him out to eat and got him a kids meal all by himself.
Not sure where to bring him later.

 

[tituteo]

autum
it works for mossies too. it's an insecticide woh. not only for ants. just last weekend i had a bbq and sprayed it all over the pit.. whole night no mossie bite though it was rainy weather. and if u spray in the air, there is no foam wan. actually if u shake it well before use, there shd be no foam woh, that i noticed. cos i don't have that problem of foam leh.

 

[babylovespink2]

I'm back fron shopping.. ey, I saw this super cute Coach bag. And I hv cravings for JCo donuts Have been eating it 3 times a week! No wonder I hv to breath in deep to buckle up my pants.

Speaking of mossie bites, Anna's legs has lots of dots. She likes to go pick on them and they leave behind scars. Then she started calling them "www dot dot dot annabelle dot dot com" *faintz*

Yvonne: Since the kids started watching tv, the 4 tvs at my house all belong to them. When they're around, we watch cartoons. So they're not blocking us..

 

[kelley]

astro: even if i ask ashlyn medicine part.. she will say i wana eat..

Huingee: wow..

AAA: where is JCo donuts?? wat did u buy?

today i jst wana be kaypo cos i dont feel like working

 

[autum]

Joelle
hmm now mine still foamy wor. Later I ask my maid to shake super hard and see if better. Hahaha. If this can work for mozzie then better la cos the other one so exp. I try again and see how.

 

[edde]

wah.. now i got #4 in the maid Q! huingee, i just asked my maid abt working for u... but now she seems a bit overwhelmed with her choices.. she is also considering working in HK if i dun renew her.. i give her some time to think abt it but i tot u only want a maid next yr? u want a maid as early as oct?

 

[mist]

Pax,

Yah, i always try to not rely on either my mum or MIL. i know they hv no obligation and they wanna enjoy their life now since they hv slogged out for us liao...

Exactly, that's my intention, i will put little X in CC when he reach 18 mths as well. Just need abit of help now for little X lah. My plan for maid didn work out and too sudden for me to book infant care, no vacancy liao.. Even w nanny, i also abit skeptical. Hv to try and see how, I dun wanna depend too much on my mil, n if suddenly go on strike, me hv no help again. That time, really cry sky, cry ground, no one can help liao.

AAA,

hahaha.. now yr turn liao huh... hahaha.. yeah, i also hv the same concern. anyway, i feel tt baby will wake up if they are hungry.

My only concern is little X stays very alert in the daytime, cos he sleeps well in the night. and he requires alot of attention and play, that's y i feel tt my MIL cannot tahan the baby.

 

[huingee]

some photos of Dylan's celebration in sch.

 

[babylovespink2]

Kelley: Raffles City. Very very nice.

Joelle: Mine is also foamy. I remember you said must shake well.. I shake a bit before spraying, so not sure if it's due to not shaking it enuf.

 

[huingee]

Edde,
Not sure when going to have maid leh. Either end of the year or mid of next year. Still not very sure. If have good one comes by can consider.
Cos the maid will be alone at home, will get my mum to come a few days in a week bah.
Also my hb said he will be flying more often now. Then sat and sunday i need to bring Esther for lessons. So sat and sunday get my mum to help me for awhile while i bring Esther for lesson.

 

[huingee]

AAA,
Donuts very sweet leh.

 

[kelley]

AAA: oic.. only there hv ah.. omg.. then i got no chance eat liao.. seldom go there..

huingee: when u celebrate at dylan cc ah.. ask u hor.. wat time should the cake cutting party be around??

 

[mmqq]

edde, aiyo. i dun let maid jaga infant at night de. cause i will do it. i wanna bf mah.

so can cut Q liao? (wah, thick skin). haha!

astro, this teng? i think he has good impression on hospital stay le. jialat liao.
anything also say go hospital.

happie birthday Dylan. i tot tomorrow is his birthday. cause month end mah. haha!!

 

[huingee]

kelley,
You can check with the teacher. Normally it's during their snack time.
Dylan is not at cc, he is at playgroup. I passed the teacher the party items when i bring him there lst. So went i reached with the cake, they were all ready with the party hats on.

 

[autum]

Huingee
the pointy hats at dylan party makes all the kids look so cute.

Edde
just an idea. Charito can go home first to spend some time with her family then come back to work for Huingee (or whoever) in January next yr. Idea is that she finds employer before she goes back so that she doesn't need to pay the 6mths salary deduction again. Just got to find an agency to process and new employer pay some fee bah.

 

[babylovespink2]

HN: It's super nice.

Kelly: I'm not sure if there's any other outlet. Wanted to ask but forgot. Not indicated on the bag or box. I've been frequenting only 3 places lately - Raffles City, Wheellock Place and Plaza Sing. And the thing they have in common: Scrapbook store! Hahah..

 

[huingee]

AAA, Kelley,
I think bugis junction basement also have the jco donut.

Autum, Edde,
My colig's filipino maid going back to her country after 2 years then come back to work. She went back before her contract end, so come back then renew.
But hor, we think she silly to go back after 2 years. Cos she got to spend $ to buy things for relatives. Also need to buy dinner for relative. All her money she worked for the 2 years gone. She even spend $70 to send back one box as too many things to bring back.
Then also have take leave from embassy, $ again.

 

[edde]

huingee, i see i see.. ya gd maid is hard to come by.. though mine is not perfect, she is gd enuf for me, housework and looking aft kids are ok, very independent and takes initiative, and the best part is she cooks very well and feed me until FAT FAT! waahahhaha! i think she really hopes to go back coz she left her younger son when he is merely 8 mths old to work for me.. now her son so big liao

QQ, i also tot i wont let andrea sleep with maid, but when i hv a maid, i become so lazy! wahhahahah! not gd for me, becoming lazier and lazier.. like ji sheng chong..

anyway, u guys noe my maid's salary is slightly above average hor? she is now getting $400 (without off day) or $380 (with 1 day off).. but so far until now she hasnt taken any off day..

autum, oh can like that eh??? hm.. sounds gd for her.. i just had a chat with her.. she said she gotta discuss with her husband whether to take another new employer or not coz new employers = another 2 yrs abroad.. dunno her husband approves or not..
