hi mommies
back and settled down in HK liao. Still missing 717's durians!
Maids
My one is Indo from HK. I think she's a fast learner. She can speak Canto, plus a bit of English. But lately i think she picked up some Mandarin from us too cos i heard her telling my girl "come in" in Mandarin! Anyway, she's consider ok now aft one whole year of training (and scolding) from me. She got initiative BUT sometimes initiate all wrong timing. Some things dont need her to do, she will do. Those need initiative she will do. When i bad mood, these things will really trigger me off. She's also very forgetful or is it on purpose? I also dunno. My DVD player recently i saw got one thick layer of dust, this one i got tell her to wipe EVERYDAY. Thick layer means it's not there overnight rite? I asked her and she said she doesnt wipe everyday but every OTHER day. Show her the dust and ask even if alternate days also wont gather such thick layer and she nods her head sheepishly. It's this kind of thing that really sets me off. She will DECIDE on her own like machiam it's her own house which one to do and which one not to. When caught and questioned why she arrives to her own conclusion wat can be skipped and wat cannot, she will give no answer. And kept saying sorry. My mom told me small matters dont be so picky cos she consider good cos never show black face and some sort reliable (didnt steal, etc) and not big eater, but i'm still quite upset with her cos these are trust issues as well. Tats why i still never let her handle Rylee. To me, even if she's genuinely forgetful, what if she forgets crucial stuffs concerning Rylee? Already, i think her workload is not that much cos like shannonbaby's maid, still take care of baby's, still wash car, cook baby's dinner..for me, i take care of Rylee myself, cook her lunch/dinner, bathe and dress up Rylee myself. I just treat my helper as a permanent household helper, to help with housework and i still want to be fully hands-on with my baby. That's why also dunno if can manage if got #2 or not. My mom says i stubborn
Weight
Mine too! Didnt escalate but cant come down! I think my appetite like permanently increased! and they say after BF stop will escalate further! Aiyoh! Cannot imagine. I've to ask hubby everytime take pic of Rylee to censor me out....cant bear to look at myself! So FAT! Keep wanting to go diet or Marie France but hubby say if preggie #2 then how? All wasted! Hahahahaha
Breakfast
Rylee ONLY eats Cheerios and nothing else (except for maybe scramble eggs and french toast) for bfast. Headache leh. Keep trying to give her new things but she will taste it tentatively with her tongue and then "decides" she doesnt like it and shakes her head. Even for bread, if i put anything on it like sardines, butter, kaya, she will refuse to eat it! I wonder when will she ever start eating and enjoy food??
