Kitsune,
Nice photos! You look gorgeous!

tongtong,
I ask my hubby first if he is keen to go for the trial class.

Lynn,
Wah, so fast, your turn soon! Congrates on deciding to be SAHM, brave decision indeed!

I am coping just well, just. Thanks for asking. Without any help, 2 adults take care of 2 kids is just nice. Busy and tired, but very happy and fulfilling :)
 
kitsune,
nice bloom shots!!

icy,
could it be the prolonged cough that causes the bronchiolitis? my #2 had it too when he's just 2 months old. he didnt show any symptoms at all, we r totally caught off guard. i was together with him in the hospital, we were quarantined as they couldnt find a cure for his problem and afraid dat it might spread. his body rejected the antibiotics, eventually he managed to recover after 1 week+. it was a horrible experience dat i will never forget.
 
Jess,
I am perfectly ok. Having super nice ME time at home doing all nonsence. There are still tons of things I want to do but haven't done yet. Never mind, still have tomorrow.......
 
Kam
haha... so shiok!.... enjoy ur day tmr too. and hope my doc will be as generous as urs!!!!
happy.gif
 
Kitsune,
Nice photos!! You look very fresh and nice!

luca,
Yes, i think the prolonged cough that causes the Bronchitis and it still have chances of becoming pneumonia if he don't recover well. I hope I don't have to go through that experience with him, doc say he might have to be on drip in hospital.. i almost breakdown.. he won't want all these, so big already, confirm fuss abt all these needles stuff.
 
Icy,
Hope your boy will get well soon before sat. Then don't have to go hospital... Understand that feeling... haiz...

Kitsune,
Nice photos! The only preggy photos I took is from my own camera.
 
kitsune,

nice pics. ur girl looks cheerful. difficult to get my boy to smile in front of the camera.

Kam,
I got the photos from Joyce liao but cant post it up yet cos I just got discharged today and still feel giddy when i stand up/walk about. side effects of GA i suppose. shivered alot after GA...reminds me of epi. I shivered then too.

will post soon ok.
 
Thanks, Aqua, Kam, Luca, Krystle, Verene, it's the make up. Even the photographer who saw me today sans make up and shaggy hair do (courtesy of QB house) said I look very different without make up. Duh, even though it's true. No need to be so frank mah. But as Steph mentioned before, she's not good in PR lar. :p

Verene, we had quite few smiley photos of her to choose from too. Think there were more than 50 photos in total and I only picked 11 (1 8R, 5 5R included in package, 6 additional 5R at $90)
happy.gif
Hope you are up and about soon.

Icy, poor Xavier. I hope he gets well soon and your hubby is around to give support. Bronchitis already very 'kelian', if got to be hospitalised, will be scary for him and very tiring for you. Jia you!

Pixie, thanks. Showed hubby your post and he's very happy. Were you at Popular? They are on 20% promotion right? So, did you buy his books?
biggrin.gif
His 4th book "Why Be A Champion?" is going to print this Thurs and will be launched in Dec. Please support, support!

Hey, the forum server is down for maintenance today from 10.30am-1pm...so unable to post anything...

here's what i wanna post early this morning:

pixie,
u Monday off ah? or watch 2012 aft work?
family outing: how abt sentosa? or farm mart at CCK?

<font color="ff0000">Paging for Janbb...</font>
Did u went to the Jewel Christmas Musical Light and ‘Snow’ Show @ Mt Faber ? How was it? Did J enjoy it? We wanna bring Z there but hb ask me to ask u for feedback 1st...dunno if it's toddler friendly plc or will they enjoy the show? the snow flakes are not real hor, as in man-made real snow or just foam?

luca, kitsune,
tks for feedback...alamak is 2012 &amp; no wonder i google can't find any 2010 movie *duh*
Yipee...hb called &amp; say he's taking half-day to accompany me
happy.gif


Hey kitsune,
yr bloom shots look great! I love the family pix &amp; RaeAnne seem so happy. I am trying Foto-U for #2 + family shot (me, hb &amp; Z) in Jan2010, hope it will turn out nice too.
 
Thanks, Steph. It's all thanks to your nice photos that I managed to convince my hubby to go for the bloom shots. He didn't want me to expose my tummy (and my unborned baby), so conservative right? That's why we never did it during RaeAnne's time.
happy.gif


Let me know how foto-u's photo turned out. I want to take another 'quan jia fu' next year with Raelynn too. How much is foto-u package by the way? Can get back all soft copies?
happy.gif
 
Er, those never lar cos you look too good, haha. My semi nude ones don't look natural enough. Not enough time so MaryAnn just chop chop take a few. Not many nice ones to pick from. :p

The foto u promotion sounds good leh. But too bad only on weekdays. Unless I make hubby apply for CCL, it's impossible. Sian. :p
 
morning mummies

TGIT!!!

steph
i watching 2012 after work, after deposit my boy at mil place. monday hb on leave.
i oso thinking farmmart but my sis wants a more animal related place so we decided to go to animal resort as per tongtong's suggestion. its near jalan kayu.

kitsune
yes i saw his books at popular. all were sealed except for 1 and i had time so i flipped through. his words were actually a lot of commonsense, but then again, a lot of teenagers are too angst-y to have common sense so i think your hb's books will help teenagers. i didnt buy lar sorry since i basically read the book foc liao...
but i have to say, the pictures are really very nice. i am proud enough to tell ppl ard me next time if i see the book "hey thats my fren's hb! hes the author!"
hohoho
 
Steph,

meaning, u will be paying $120+$80 for all photos.

quite ok for the price. but my boy not smiling so quite difficult to choose photos and not worth to top up. probably will do it if i have #2 liao...more worth it...LOL
 
Verene,

i have not decide whether i want the soft copies in CD...if the photos turn out nice, yes i think will take it since only $80 while studioloft charge $250 le! I am just worry how me &amp; hb will manage 2 active boys in the studio...let alone pose &amp; smile &amp; gotta change their clothing for the shoot etc...tiring le.

luca,
aiya my hb hor...so angry with him yest. He took leave cos he also wanna join me for body massage mah then hor we go sim lim to buy his walkie talkie loh...so boring...i thought he will suggest movie after massage *Duh*
Then hor, what upsad me was his coll's comments...
while hb &amp; me were having our usual chat about his Tues dinner with his group of colleagues, hb told me one of his coll need to rush back home after dinner &amp; he ask her why, she said her son can't sleep without her in bed together &amp; hb told her usually he is the one who sleep with Z while i sleep with R mah. His coll (mother of 1 boy who is 2.5YO) said to him, "your wife should sleep with your elder son so that he will be closer to her than you otherwise next time when he (refering to Z) grow up liow, he wont want your wife (that's me)"! I think that's was rude &amp; offensive to me (like i dun care about Z) cos how could she said that, based on what?? By not co-sleeping with Z, Z will not feel closer to me meh...got such theory anot? How could she judge me likdat, she doesn't even know me. She thinks i don't wanna sleep with Z meh...how about R...how can the bed accommodate 3 pax? Then expect my hb to sleep alone izit? Sorry for ranting...i just feel upsad that hb seem to agree with her that i shld learn to co-sleep with Z instead of him usually.
 
steph
ok i would be angry too.
then machiam you take care of 2 while ur hb takes care of...nothing (maybe himself) meh? stupid...the lady dunno, coz she is only mother of 1. if she have 2, she will know how tough the logistics is liao.
dun care her. dont waste your brain cells over such matters. your brain cells can be used for better stuff like eg where to go for lunch LOL
 
steph, aiya, i think her comments are unfounded, dont take it seriously. Last time yea i slept with my nanny till quite big, and yes eventhough i'm close to my nanny but i'm also close to my parents who ddid not sleep wtih me during my childhood time.
 
steph,
its easy for her to say since she only got 1 kid. if she got 2 kids, i think will be the same arrangement like us.
 
pixie,
tks for cheering me up &amp; understand my point. I told hb that if he co-sleep with Z, i can do my hsework. If i co-sleep with Z, he will play his pc game &amp; hsework still pending...so not productive as in time not wisely spend in helping out. I told him, almost everyday he need to work OT till 1AM or later &amp; including this Friday which is suppose to be a PH...how he expect me to bond/co-sleep with Z or both. No way le cos i need to bath &amp; settle them to bed...no time to do other stuff (hsework/tv/FB)...i am human afterall...is very tiring for me. After this intense conversation, we stop talking for an hour to cool down...to ponder...no mood to joke.
 
Steph,
I also interested in the photo-shot, can snap a bit of my tummy and with Xavier.. Now trying to convince my hb. :p
 
Pixie, yup I see. It's ok. His target audience is teenagers after all. But if got chance, buy as xmas gifts for the teens you know, can.
happy.gif


I'm heading to sitex later. Got GPS on offer, yippee!
happy.gif
 
Verene,
Saw your photos on FB liao. Nice! Did the 3 of you enjoy the photo session? I booked mine on the 27th Dec, 1 week after my #2 turns 4 months. Hope both of them behave well so we can get some nice family photos :)


Kitsune,
OMG! Are you sure you are going to SITEX later??? You are already >38 weeks and already ENGAGED leh!!! And you are not well leh. Pei fu, pei fu!

This is the new memory board game we bought for Hao Re. He doesn't know how to play by the rules yet, but he has fun with it nonetheless. Click link below (or go to my FB, it's the same).

Steph,
The others said correctly. It is a different ballgame when comes to handle 2 kids. Each parent got to put 1 kid to sleep mah. Usually I will put my girl to sleep while hubby carry boy to sleep. Just like what you said, time efficiency. Even with that, I normally only get to bath @ 11am which is quite late liao. If I handle 2, think I need to wait till 12am then can bathe.

Kam,
Nice video. HR so clever. My girl not so interested in books, puzzles etc... Haiz...
 
Kam: Thank you for the link. I bought the Brainy bb memory card game and my girl knows how to play it well. She has good memory and can match the cards very well and put them aside. But then she only want to play the card when mummy or daddy is sitting down to watch her. ;-)

Btw, just received a new that the insurance company is paying me 50% value of my lost phone. Hehehe. So happy. ;-)))
 
Kam,
Hao Re so clever, my girl only interested to say the names of the objects.

Steph,
Sure your hubby can understand after explaining to him the pros and cons.
 
Steph,
The Christmas Musical Light and ‘Snow’ Show @ Mt Faber is "not recommended." Unless u happen to dine there &amp; u can enjoy their light &amp; snow show at the same time. If not, find a bit silly to pay &amp; stand there (no seat unless dine in)... somemore the x'mas tree lighting is not very nice...The snowflakes are made of ice. But no big area for children to run around... Totally No-No to go..
 
steph
dont b angry. what the lady said has no concrete ground to proof her theory is right loh. it is always challenging to put 2 small kids to sleep. it's good that Z want your hb to sleep with him leh. For me, #1 doesnt want her daddy to sleep with her.
sad.gif
So i always got to settle #2 to sleep first @ 9+pm and then it's #1 turn to sleep @10+pm. By the time both in lala land, it's abt 11pm then i get to shower. Previously my hb tried to put #2 to sleep but #2 will wake up and play with him instead! same thing will happen to #1 too! so it is never works to get my hb to put any of my kids to bed... haiz...

kam
i do agree with u that playing puzzle on hp and pc is different from the actual stuff. for me is just to keep my gal entertain and do some "useful" thing while on the bus journey and waiting for food @ restaurant. my gal can't sit still type and no longer keen on her mini doodle set already. so i downloaded more useful apps like flashcards, puzzle games, counting games, phonics games for her to occupy those "waiting time"....
 
krsytle and Luvv,
Thanks :)

Superbee,
Totally understand. I was suggesetig to hubby to install "in-flight entertainment" (aka portable DVD) in the car so can keep HR sit quietly during the car journey. Hubby said NO. So end of story.

My boy loves his daddy more and more, cos I am occupied by XY (hubby can't take over BF mah, can he :)) so hubby got to spend more time playing with him. The only thing that he still doesn't "accept" his daddy is to put him to bed, still must be me. #2 ok with daddy, most of the time, #2 also KO when I put HR to sleep. So I am luckier, on a good day, 930pm I am free (of the kids) already. On a bad day, XY can drag to 11pm or even later.

My boy loves his daddy so much now that daddy already took over mummy position. Yesterday I sang 世上只有妈妈好,he immediately stopped me, and said "no, no, no". Then he sang 世上只有爸爸好. Oh, so heart broken :p
 
hey mummies i found something good:
3298429.jpg
3298430.jpg
3298431.jpg

they are 3 for $5 @ my office's market there, i think have 2 more sets left.

aprox. 20pages. front &amp; back also have pictures. some of them have prompt questions on the back.
i think quite educational. and the red see thru sq on the first page, you can see "words" or "numbers" at each of bottom of a page. it will show something

pixel: my PIL bought something similar for Johanna from China too. ;-) Can say the printing is good and pix is clear. ;-))

Kam: HR can say alot now huh?? Clever boy.
 
pixie,

if u going to the jalan kayu farm..activities are something like this:

feed the small animals - pay to buy the food.
feed the horse- with carrots. think can bring from home but dont let them see. if not. buy lor..feed before u touch him..if not, he will bite. be careful.
can dogs on showcase there cos the petshop sells pups and dog stuff etc. got swans and some dont know what giant bird.
 
Pixie,

I went there once every 2 months. buy dog food there. I am recovering well. thanks. not much pain though. took pain killer regularly.
 

pixie

kam
u know i got the "in-flight entertainment"! ;) well it does help to make my gal to sit still during the car journey. b4 buying it, i was using iphone youtube to entertain her &amp; when we r changing car, i propose to hb to get the portable DVD. Then she was guai guai watch the dvd when she &amp; hb travel to my parent's house during my confinement(i stayed @ home).
happy.gif
Wow HR know how to sing that song...amazing leh..
