(2007/11) November MTBs

michviv, me too i always tot SAHMs are very 'weida'! at least for me, i cannot tahan facing kiddos 24/7. once a while like weekends still ok. when my parents went for their holidays mid of this yr, i had to take care of my 2 kids for a good 10days. The very next day aft they came bk to Spore, i quickly plonk my kids there and left! wahahhaa....

i really think that SAHM is not a 'job' for anybody...but to stay in touch with the world is important, like coming to this forum cos we hv a good mix of SAHM + FTWM + WAHM like me!

S@l, hehe at least got the "me" part correct!

Cindy ah, from ur blog... Tell ur hubby that its ok for boys to play with things like those kitchen toys! My bro even played Barbie with us... but he turn out to be SUPER MAN... As in, he s not sissy or what lor...
happy.gif
 
Haha, sally, I always thought it was mis ka! Oops!!

Michviv, housewife is just not for me... Haha. Thought of doing that but now holidays, just 2months with him and I already thinking back of gg back to work! too tiring to face him all day, all week, all month, all year long. Gets very frustrating Haha!

Weishy n kaye, ya loh! Everything to our name more secure Haha! Weishy u take care on your way back ha! All the best to your ttc!

Poissons, Haha see u And poochi and langlao on sat! Langlao, thank u for the show times! Must bring him go watch barney Haha.

Poissons,
ha ok if u driving think can lug it along. Jus in case he refuse all the bb jar food.

langlao,
I wen to GNC the other day and the lady rec. me thecolostrum to take wif the multi-vits. Says its good for bb..

michviv,
I also same sentiments as you. But I'm still thinking if I shld be SAHM wen she is older ie. 2yrs or older or wen I have a 2nd one... but scared later wan to come back work no job for me :p I actually enjoy being wif her at night and weekends but the other part is the lack of me time.

lazykat, dreamer, how u manage ah?
 
cindy:tks tks
happy.gif

told my hubby if he goes football after come back sure his "friends" will be more energised!!!!so maybe can swim better upwards kakkakakkakak......so far he too tired after games......poor me.
 
Weishy, my Mama told u that ur next one might be a boy after seeing the lines on Hayley's thighs!! See how true it is!!!

Me down with a major flu and i m still at work.. Sigh.. Going home soon, the doc ordered me to rest at home...

Poochi ah, be optimistic like me lah.. I also think its more economical to be a SAHM if 1 hv 2 children. Work wise, can always find one... Dun worry!

Mabbe like what Weishy told me, be a volunteer lor!!! :p
 
Cindy
kao_frustrated.gif
....

tell ur hubby children's toys shouldnt hv any gender difference at this age...no need to worry la....the best chefs in the world are mostly males..and they make good money...hehehehe. oh did i tell you Favian has 3 cooking sets at hm? wahahha....was contemplating to get him the little tikes cooking set if my new hse is big enough! *LOL

weishy, ur flt confirmed?
 
K@ye:hahhaha hope true la.....and soon also......then can close factory faster :p

hey dun spread germs to other ppl mah ,stay at home and rest la,eta ur vit c also

why not volunteer?volunteering dun mean hv to clean shit etc one mah.....cooking or preparing food,organising transport etc......also can mah.
 
Langlao,

happy.gif
Thanks!

Poochi,
me not FT SAHM, ha, at most 70%? I still hv dedicated in laws whom help me out on some wkdays, like i am "dropping" ZY at their place so can sneak out to do own things, shopping, etc! Hubby still help me with moset housework, so i'm not complaining too much! =P
 
Weishy,
now that u mention, ZY also eyes big big when she first arrived, hubby still ask me eyes not supposed to be closed one meh? (as tho i will know!) And in split seconds, she wail out aloud, so mouth big big and eyes close liao lor..
 
lazykat, hahaha u like me lor...not sure what is the status...but u nt working from hm at all right? i m still...so u should be TT = TAI TAI
 
langlao: me interested in ChildLife's Colostrum with Probiotics .. heehee.. just chat with weishy on this too.. coz cailyn's poo not frequent.. so thinking of improve her digestive system.. dont want to be like mummy.. constipate one.. heehee..

so here is update list:

1. Poissons
2. lazykat - confirm??
3. Grace - on queue

5. CLO - mamboob

sally: heehee.. now i know how to pronounce ur gal's name liao.. suit ur princess perfectly..
 
Cindy: I used to be like you. I couldn't wait to go back to work after my maternity leave. I was even clearing my email from home and on teleconference during maternity leave! haha. Think mainly becos I didn't see direct returns for my efforts but thats so different now cos Ethan can learn so fast and I'm so moved when he remembers things I taught him.

I used to be VERY career minded becos I feel strongly that a woman needs her financial independence but the factor of time just hit me that if I don't spend time with him now, it will be over and there is no going back! Poochi, I too really enjoying being with him after work and the weekends. So I may seriously consider working part time when I deliver my number 2.

k@ye: Aiyo...go home and rest la. Its not worth it!
 
Poissons: for the sterilizer, it depends on which hotel you go to. When I went to Thailand, Banyan tree had a sterilizer in the room and I didn;t even need to ask for it! Think Fairmount also provided when I stayed there. No harm asking la. =)

Weishy: Babies eyes are usually swollen after staying so long in amniotic fluid so the faster the swelling subside and they open their eyes the better. But at that young age, they can't see anything even if they open eyes thats why they go by smell so sense their mummy.
 
lazykat:eek:hh hayley never cry le...nto like other babies though :p...only when she's hungry hahhahah.

of cos u TAI TAI la hehhehehehhe
 
Mischa's mummy,
aiyoh, new nick, very the long leh.. TT yr head! Even if so, its HDB TT only, haha. I cant multi task nowadays, not much energy left after taking care of the little mischievious at home. Think i shld be the one taking more vit!
 
lazykat, short form - MM also can la...hehehe.

hiaz....let me know when ZY is hm..then i dun bring mischa to my mum pl...let them 2 hve playdate...we also can go jalan...Yum Cha...ok? we HDB TT in the making! unless u 'bu shang lian' la

Hi mummies

Hope you like the desserts on Saturday. So sorry cannot make it to the party. My gal is down with Broncolities again. Was so worried that she will need to be admitted to the hospital again. Doctor says she got weak lungs and sensitive airways. Really hope to beef her up, afraid she'll be asthmatic in the future
sad.gif
 
Gemini:eek:hhhhhh better be careful loooo u dun want ehr to carry the inhaler everywhere she goes le.....take care loooo
 
Gemini: Thanks for the desserts! I really hope your girl gets well soon. Poor thing...

lazykat: Wah! Good life man! I don't think my parents or in-law can tahan Ethan for 1 night. Haha...Its always a nice surprise when they say a word or 2. My hubby always goes into Ethan's room first cos his clothes are there and tells him "Eh? Wake Up already ah?" then, last week, Ethan was stretching in his cot when hubby walked in and Ethan said "Wake up". haha.

Poochi: I agree! Then we can go en masse to those weekday playgroups instead of queueing with all the rest of the mummies and babies. See first la. If my hubby's business does well, then see if I can persuade him to let me convert to part-time. =P
 
Weishy,
Serious ah..panties in the kettle!!!! When I travel, i will use the hotel's kettle leh..omg..ok ok..i think this wkend better go get a small electric kettle..the travelling type one.dun want my boy's milk to be contaminated with smelly panties..yucks yucks..haha..
 
poochi, haha s@l, lazykat are your kakis liao! haha and michviv, kaki to be. I can not be a SAHM la haha too much $$ lost.. hahaha! not that i earn a lot la haha but more comfy with more money. I will join you all as SAHM every march, june, sept, nov, dec holidays. HAHA which is quite a lot liaos okay!!

kitty:: hiak hiak, me now trying to psycho hubby to bring us there haha! but maybe have to wait for the PS one liao loh.

Gemini:: hugs hugs to yc. MUACKS. hope she gets well soon!

kaye:: hope you're on your way home liaos ah~
 
Wow…seem like everyone were enjoying the party. I will try to make it next time. So far, I have seem a few mummies before only. My hubby always have activity on sat…

Starz: I bring my son for the swim around 9+am cos he normally wake up about 7+ to 8am. So just nice for morning swim. I know some kids can wear nepia at night but mine is a No no…sure leak like nobody business. So I sure use Pamper Active for the night.

Kittybride: saw that you mentioned can closed shop liao. Congrats ya!

Pig: Congrats! Baby Kicia so adorable! Its made me think of my son when newborn.

Langlao: I want to order the vitamin too. Later i will update in your list. :)
 
gemini,
thanks for yr cakes. hope yr gal recovers soon.

mambobb,
glad that u like the gift. They dont carry it here, i bought it from US. I bought 10 of those back Hehee.. i thought that they r perfect for walking toddlers at crowded places, as we need to keep them near us. even if u dont wana use the harness it can be used as a cute backpack for the kids.
 
gelyn
thanks!
happy.gif

our hbs can hi-5 liao, every sat got their ECA...
sad.gif


langlao,
yup, but he a bit complaining my gal is getting heavier liao. even with the beco, he say his shoulders also ache ah... i thk he also OLD lia...ahahahaa...

gemini,
hugs to your dotter - hope she gets well soon!

K@ye so quiet hor, i thk she conked out on the bed liao. :D
 
Kittybride: ya lor. So if I wanna book any trial, must tell him in advance. I was telling one of the mummies here that I bring my son to swim on Sat morning but last sat we didn't go cos he got his ECA. I think I should ask him to shift to sunday.

Gemini: Hope your daughter will get well soon!
 
mambobb, ueno...

sorry to interrupt... i just pop out out of the blue.. (am actually a silent reader)

was just reading your post... think spore kidzloft have the harness.

They called it the 2-in-1 harness buddy.

poochi -- me -- not so fortunate! cannot drop kaira off to anyone to help look after for a few hours so its like 24x7 looking after her.. honestly .... it does get on my nerves sometimes... especially when she's in a cranky mood! (like recently .... she ALWAYS cry before she sleeps....very sianzzzzz....)

i also don't know how i manage, but i think u will somehow manage when u don't have a choice!
happy.gif
u know what i mean? juz have to take deep breaths sometimes and continue smiling at our DDs ...hehehe.

actually, its much more enjoyable now with them i feel. like now, even though cold, i still bundle her up and we often go for walks @ the park and she loves looking at the animals @ the mini zoo and birds flying around the pond etc etc... then she will laugh very loudly ..... very cute one. i enjoy those times very much.... i love to see her enjoy herself.

so for me , its a matter of "learning" to enjoy the moments with her and those "difficult" moments (which thank God isn't that often!), pray for strength and wisdom to get through....

but i do miss my "me time" very much. i have 0 me time.
sad.gif
but i think for u with family support, this should not be a problem at all!
happy.gif


oops, my post so long ah! ;p
