GAR & BKK BP:
It's good!
I used the sunscreen today on its own. No powder no other stuff at all.
WEnt to Anchorpoint and Ikea over lunch (means abit of walking to and fro the overhead bridge) and it stayed pretty 'oil-free'.
Now about 4+PM, face is getting slightly shiny..but still ok. just dab dab with tissue and i'm good to go. Face does not feel and look oily at all.
*happy customer*
i think this is by far the best sunscreen i've used. Good for lazy ppl like me

I just read the news abt the father who killed his 2 kids and committed suicide. It is so so sad. Why must he take such drastic measures? why can't they talk it out? why why why must he take 2 innocent lives?? How can the mother carry on now? I can't take it when I read news abt young children being abused/killed nowadays. Just makes me wanna cry, go home and hug my dd.

leila,
haha...we hope to solve "THAT" problem once and for all!!
btw, wanted to ask what amazon stuff you want? quite irritated with them actually. they use to consolidate all the items into one box. nowadays they ship separately and can be like one item in one huge box....so the shipping cost can be HUGE!!!
i paid US$15 for one book, and guess what??? they packed into a stupid 3kg box. *HEART PAIN*
if you are looking for books, can check out bookdepository.co.uk some of the mummies here use and the price includes FOC int'l shipping. it may be more transparent (else like me kena heart attack when i see the shipping bill)

Lezy, nose block can really irritate them cos they dunno how to clear. I use tonimer spray up her nasal passage to clear the blockage. She will cry and protest but after that ok.
Tute, do you need to take driving for work? My mantra - always better to be driven than to drive! hehe.
Babies sleep later, also wake up later. K used to sleep at 7pm, wake up 5am. Now sleep at past 9, wake up at 8. My mom said it's their natural cycle. Sometimes wish she could konk out earlier so we can do other things! so bad.

Hi Dor, replied to you liao
if you meeting Gar, she can pass you some samples but we need honest feedback
Clover,
I was reading Tracy Hogg on toddler behaviour. She says there's a difference between curiousity and aggression. Curiosity is slow while aggession is impulsive and quick. If ur child sidles up to someone, checks them out before giving a bite or hiting, he's probably curius but if they purposely push/hit/bite, it's aggression. Cld Alex simply be testing his boundaries?

<font color="0000ff">Potty training: What doesn't work
To make potty training as smooth a process as possible for you and your toddler, take a moment to learn about not only what works, but what doesn't:
Starting too soon
Starting potty training before your toddler is ready will only make it more difficult and prolong the process. There's no magic time when it's right to begin. Most toddlers have the necessary physical and mental skills between 18 and 24 months, while some aren't ready until they're closer to age 3 or even 4. Keep an eye out for physical, cognitive, and behavioral signs that your toddler is set to give it a try.
It may take up to three months to potty-train your child, and it's important to be patient and supportive throughout. If you've been trying for three months without success, your toddler may not be ready — wait a few weeks and try again.
Starting at the wrong time
It's not a good idea to begin training a week before the new baby is due, when you're changing caregivers, or during any other disruptive time in your child's life. Toddlers are creatures of routine, and any changes to the usual program are likely to cause setbacks.. So wait until things have settled down before you start.
Putting on the pressure
If your toddler has started to show an interest in potty training, that's great. But don't push her to get through it faster than she can handle. If she gets nervous, she could start holding in her stool, which can lead to constipation and other problems.
Let her take her time and get used to this new, multipart process step by step. She'll move from one stage to the next at her own speed. It's fine to try to motivate with gentle reminders and encouragement, but if she balks, don't push it.
Following your mother-in-law's timetable
It will get harder with each week, but no matter how many times you hear your parents, your in-laws, or someone else from an earlier generation tell you that you should hurry up and start training, let it roll off your back.
Potty training methods have changed a lot in the last 40 years, and what was standard practice when you were a child is no longer the norm. These days it's typical to wait for signals your child is ready rather than impose a schedule of your own. And research suggests children can't voluntarily control the muscles for their bladder and rectum until they're at least 18 months old.
So if you hear any more stories about Cousin Jim's son who was trained by his first birthday, smile, nod, and say, "We have a plan. We're not worried about it." For support and advice from other parents, visit our potty training community forum.</font>
