PB
it sounds so scary,
stop growing. that would be the last thing u would want to get from the gynae.

and i should perhaps look for a cute digital pighead and include it in the emails.
whwhahah.

same as poppy, barbie runs thru the clothes too.
there was once we were at gap. i was too engrossed with my targets.
she was happily tranferring the clothes from the lower deck to the floor.
when i turned around, i was shocked to see all the clothes on the floor.
so pai seh loh.

 

[pinkbunny]

[sdchick]

Talking about GAP - yesterday I went to GAP at Centrepoint. Guess what... most of the sales items at other outlets are there. all babies and kids (except some new arrivals for kids) are at 50-60%. Teeheeee

 

[dusty_gecko]

 

[pinkbunny]

rena
hope your hubby gets better soon. happy birthday though

 

[dusty_gecko]

do you realize how our babies don't look like babies in photos anymore? they look like such big kids now....

 

[dusty_gecko]

pediped spree
i have decided i cannot resist the cute pediped shoes (oh woe my bank account the day doggiebb told us about pediped) so i am going to do a spree on it.

pls pm me if you're interested to join me. lets do this now while my credit card is still charging about 1.49 exchange rate.

www.pediped.com SPREE!!!!

 

[michelletan]

Qing, returned pighead to you liao. pls check, for both Gap/ON and CB cream. gam xia for being the santa claus (who does not give out presents for free)! Ho Ho Ho!

E2, why sad... treat every happy day in your life as tho it is your birthday, dun need to wait until the actual day one... take heart that you are blessed with two cute little Es and a hubby who buys you branded bags and phone again and again wor... I love to count my blessings on my Birthday.. that in itself is a good enough pressie.. haha.. see how much Ethan has changed me. Hiak! Hope your hubby gets well soon... btw, we have stopped celebrating birthdays, alone. its always one big jin gang go jiak ho liao.. hee...

ya lah.. I ROMed in 1999, customary in 2001.. so this year 10th yr anniversary liao loh.. I am not young liao like you all think you know.. I am one of the older mummies here, remember? BUT, i am still young at heart! hee hee...

today ethan so tired, 830 started rubbing his eyes.. so let him sleep early and now he snoring liao.. today his EMI (Ethan's Milk Index) went up 120 points (he just finished 120ml of milk mah).. hahaha..

 

[michelletan]

DUSTEE DUSTEE DUSTEE!!!!! I just TTed almost $200 to Qing for GAP/ON... BU YAO HAI WO!!! should I click? I am sleepy now.. I am sleepy now... go to sleep.. g.o. t.o. s.l.e.e.p.......

 

[dusty_gecko]

btw, just to refresh everyone's memories. both doggiebb and dor dor have said that the shoes are not so suitable when the toddlers can really walk and run, coz they are just leather soles, so would be slippery. but since pomfret is not walking yet, i just want to get a pretty pair to train her to get used to it (right now she resists shoes).

and shipping is possibly between S$6-S$10 per pair. so must factor that into your costs.

i think if i get another 2 mummies who are interested (so at least 3 pairs) then i'll go ahead coz it's free local shipping in US.

 

[dusty_gecko]

michelle
got a few pairs that are just one pair for US$19!!! can you resist?

http://www.pediped.com/Product/ProductInfo.aspx?id=144&cid=54

 

[michelletan]

ok, i succumbed to temptations and clicked the link. then hubby saw the price and WHOA! out loud.. then i go sooo cuuteee... then he say siao ah? you just bought so many from fox baby at $8 only.. why spend USD45 on a pair of shoes and Ethan can only wear for only a month? (ethan's feet seem to have growth spurt suddenly ever since i bought many pairs of the same size).. so I guai guai closed the website.. No pedipeds for Ethan...

Heng ah.....

BUT BUT BUT, the gals shoes are too hard to resist!! too hard!!

 

[pinkbunny]

dustee
oh yes pomfret looks like such a big girl in that pic!!!!! maybe it's the hair down instead of up that makes the diff?

i think poppy still looks babyish somehow. maybe the baldness.....

 

[michelletan]

DUSTEE, GO TO BED oredi!!!!!!! Oh my.. brown and blue... Ethan has clothes that matches... ARGH!!!!!!! DUSTEE DUSTEE DUSTEE!!!!!

NO NO NO

 

[pinkbunny]

wow so many posts in 10 mins!

michelle
you're making me think back to what i was doing in 1999. still thinking. very hard. hmmm.

pinkbunny's memory has left the building.

 

[michelletan]

How about I tell hubby I will be able to sell the shoe off after ethan outgrow it? hmmm.....

ok, i think I better start signing off... you pple.. tsk tsk tsk.. very bad influence you all.. tsk tsk tsk... *shaking head*...

tata.

 

[dusty_gecko]

according to dor (as you can see, i gleam a lot of wisdom from her) her D changed shoes every 3 months. so shoe-buying is unavoidable.

actually serene is the one who started me on this shoe-buying thingie. but the shoes she wanted from www.robeez.com is oos. coz you know kacey can walk very steady now, so she needs proper walking shoes.

but pomfret still cruising, so i figured, pediped looks good for now.... hehe

 

[rena076]

Dustee, can wait for me? I want to order 2 pairs

 

[youpi]

Crystal
Did this Kidsloft use to be at Cluny Court?

Holly, E Sq
*HUGS* I had a 20-week loss before having #1.

E Sq
Happy Birthday

Your hb very good already lah, buy you a lot of things, plus new sofa also right? Hope he gets better soon.

PB
I also feel that L still looks very baby, and yes, I think the hair (or rather, lack therof) definitely plays a part.

Dustee
There's a ray of light(?) descending on Pomfret from the top left, like she was beamed down

Michelle
Wow, 10 years! You and hb enjoyed your 'er ren shi jie' for a long long time before Ethan came along

Steph
Congrats on #2. You may not feel the excitement now but it will come, it will come

 

[bÜgz]

qing meimei.. later go check mail for pighead.. so u will bring our loot out this fri to crab-bee-hoon outing?

alamak crystal got into a minor accident? hope you and caitlan weren't scared shock..have yet to meet clever bb caitlan hehe

esquare.. why so moody.. dun worry.. hb will get better soon I'm sure..

dustee: pM-ed you on pedipeds

michelle: you got disclose age before meh? I seriously think you are younger than me leh! and I am one of the oldies here *blush*

michelle: pedipeds are fantastic shoes for walking bb's leh...hurr€y hurrY!

eh but wat sizes r u all getting ah? measured bbG's feet.. it's 12-13cm leh.. yet u guys say it's not suitable when they can run liao? hmm.. he's not walking or even standing on his own yet....hope 18-24m is the right size to get...

 

[bÜgz]

youpi, esquare, holly... it must have been really tough getting over it huh.. dun think I can.. my younger sis lost her 10wk old before her first too.. but a 20wk or 25wk would have been so much more heart wrenching... HUGZ

pomfret looks like mummy in the pic hor..

 

[elliuzion]

hubby caught bosco drawing this... truely his own drawing hor.

and, the requested zombie video!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgrIbQUym8w

 

[star_xin]

steph:like de way u say it abt hubbies n i cun agree no more..his behaviour abt trying to play w moi boi more..seems to indicate tat he's trying to 'con' me into hving a 2nd 1... but..congrats to u.. i tink it's reali maternal instinct to be excited abt getting pregnant..

waiwai:hope moi congrats din come too late..i m excited for u too..

bbwalking:moi still cun even hold n walk..guess he's a slowstarter like hb, hb onli walked at 16mths..

bblook:toking abt dis..i tink dis is so funi..mani pple n relatives says moi boi looked like 3 yo in his pics..den in moi heart i was tinking..dis boi so 'chao lao' in hokkien...

bbloss:let's be positive n nt tink so much abt dis,hao ma? altho it is veri realistic and i tink it'll be good to have a listening ear when dis happens..but let's not scare those we are tinking or may consider another bb??

 

[bluebearypie]

Yah lor, I went out for a few hours only and I have like 20 posts!

PB,
Eh, 1999 ar... studying lor. Haha.
I think Declan still looks babyish too. I can't figure out what though.. the innocent look on his face? Maybe the hair cos although he's not bald, he does have very little.

do1nk,
OMG, you're right! Pomfret looks so much like dustee in that pic!

Holly,
Haha, I kept laughing when I saw the video. It's really zombie-like!

 

[star_xin]

erm..sorri 4 being insensitive..

 

[rena076]

Michelle,
I am not upset coz hb cannot bring me out . Just that he always fall sick on my birthday . Which make him fell guilty.. I hate tat kind of feeling.. For me every day is like a birthday coz I get presents every other day and he always make a point to bring me out for good food every sat.
It's just tat when he is not well I felt loss..

Youpi ,
I can understand .. I had depression on my 2nd miscarriage. . Mine 1st was very drama.. Just after the d&c few days I had high fever and tat was during the SARS period and I was being lock up in the container where there is only a bed and a phone.. The worse no power in my container so hp cannot charge.. I cried for a week and only came out the 2nd week.. Even the nurses felt sad for me.. 2nd time I was admitted to hospital for 2weeks before bb was gone but mil constant nasty remarks causes my depression.. Tat was why my family and hb loved e alot... E2 as well.. They are our bundle of joy

[pinkbunny]

yeah yeah congrats jacelyn on booking your ticks!!!

oh girls. must tell you this. today i left poppy alone in living room with her water bottle while i did the dishes. usually when i yell out 'poppy are you ok?' she answers in some foreign language. but today she was quiet. too quiet.

so i went out to investigate.

*insert suspenseful music*

she had emptied her (full) water bottle on the living room floor, creating an indoor swimming pool, and was doing the breaststroke on the floor. how to get angry at her! it was too funny! plus she was only wearing diaper so it really looked like she was trying to tell me that it was hot and she wanted to go swimming

and the best part was... after her 'swim', she decided she was thirsty and bent down to lick the water off the floor!

i really ROFL!

 

[pinkbunny]

i have started my own spree thread in the sprees section coz i really want a pair of pediped.

and then i realized pple always put "exchange rate at 1.51, to be adjusted higher" erm, then what happens if the rate is lower? they "jiak" (eat) the difference?

am i very goondu if i say i will use the difference to offset shipping? no right? i mean, the pple who earn from sprees won't come and flame me coz i don't intend to profit right?

 

[dusty_gecko]

all these sleepless nights are really bad for my bank account. tsk tsk.

pb
lets meet up one day coz we'll be missing poppy in canada for two months

 

[dusty_gecko]

btw i'm always posting around this time coz pomfret only sleeps around 11.30pm - 12 midnight. no thanks to my hb who comes home at 10pm or later and then proceeds to play with her and get her all psyched up. sigh.

 

[teddyhope]

Youpi
The Bath n shampoo?? Or U want the bubble bath?? Cos I also have......hahaha
U need urgently?? Cos I ordered from diapers.com US18.99 .

Yest exchange rate was at 1.43 which means credit card rate should still be @1.5 n below if not big fluctuation.

18.99 * 1.5 = S$28.50 + shipping

U need urgent?? Then I pass to u 1st after arrive then u pay me?? SMS me lah k but next week then meet u after germs settle lah k....hehe

Dustee

Michelle,
tell you something ok.. But cannot laugh.. I have never been to marina barrage (or something).. My e1 oy been to east coast 2 times e2 non. Zoo at least e1 been with me 3 times..e2 non.. Shopping centres .. Zillion times..
My hb is not a nature loving person..if not for poppy's birthday he would not have gone to botanic gardens...

I realise e1 much lucklier than e2... But no choice coz mama old already cannot carry heavy weight too long.

Cannot remember who ordered which drink, add on to the food which is divided equally amongst all of us since it was 1-for-1 but there were 7 of us.
