Hi Cheri!
Sorry took so long to reply. Was sick along with my daughter and little boy last weekend..
So r u still in spore? when do u plan to come to melbourne?
I'm not too sure where hopeacc's staying. hopeacc, din really have a chance to chat with u on fri night cos of the kids.
We are renting our place for 250 per week. It's a two bedroom house... very simply furnished.. My two girls are currently attending full day childcare twice a week. That gives me the much-needed space to keep my sanity heh. or else i think i will go mad facing three monsters 24/7.
Yup, i am PR. Typical day ah... lets see.. the kids wake up ard 7-7.30am. we let them watch tv or do some painting until lunch time. Eat rest a while and then we'll put them down for noon nap. They wake ard 3-4pm. Then i'll try to get them to do some painting/colouring. If not, it's TV again till i finish cooking...i will try to sneak in some educational time once i get this glen doman book suggested by a fren. But realistically speaking, i find it hard to 'do things' with the two older ones with a baby to care for. Maybe when my boy is bigger, it will get better.
Hmm... how do i cope with 3? I also dunno.. My husband's a great help. He will start work soon and it will be down to me. I sure hope i can do it.. will have to try to take things one day at a time..i guess having a daily routine will help... at least the day wont seem so long if u occupy yr time with activities - go playgrps, visit parks, libraries, shopping or simply doing art & craft at hm....
Yr hubby's job good ah.. can do from home. But when he travels, it's also hard on u too to manage all on yr own.
Suburbs popular with asians are Box Hill, Glen Waverly and Springvale (vietnamese).
Sure, can try to meet up if time permits. Just let us know once u confirm the dates. Closer to the date, we can exchange numbers via pm or e-mail.
btw, do u girls use any of these social communitites sites - Totspot, kidmondo to upload photos, updates of yr little kiddies? or do u know of frens who do use them? if so, can let me know? i got a few questions to ask for an article i'm writing.
