The house is often filled with Baby’s chatter, laughter, cries or screams. When she’s around and there’s silence, I can be rest assured that this fella is up to something that’s a bane in the house, like playing with plasters: And she sure knows how to choose the Disney tattoo plasters over the plain white…

Accident Prone Cassandra
When Sherilyn was 1-3yo, she was very prone to accidents and gave me umpteen heart-stopping moments. Now, the jinx has moved to Baby, sigh…. and she’s very accident prone too. From the moment she was born up until now, she has given me countless near-faint moments. On the day before our trip to Penang, Baby…
Cassandra’s 4th Post Ureteral Reimplantation Surgery Ultrasound Scan
We had to make 2 trips to the hospital this time as the ultrasound scan report was not ready yesterday. Thus my anxiousness was protracted. I never like the feeling of waiting for reports or results. It makes me sick. Baby was mighty brave this time. Albeit the long wait for the radiologist to come…
Penang Here We Come
We were back in Ipoh yesterday. In a few hours’ time, we will travel to Penang. A holiday in Penang for us (twice yearly) is set for us for the next 10 years until Baby turns 12 years old. She needs to do an ultrasound scan of her kidney twice yearly until she turns 12. …
Habits Are Hard To Die
Habits are hard to die. Remove the letter H, you still have ‘a bit’… remove the letter A, you still have ‘bit’ and remove the letter B, you still have IT!! Baby is having a ‘relapse’ and is back to her addiction of mummy’s boobs several days ago, albeit a mild addiction, which normally spikes…
Cassandra’s First Night Of Sleeping Without Mummy Next To Her
For the first time in her life last night, Baby slept without me next to her. I have been drumming into her head lately, trying to brainwash her to sleep with her 2 jie jies, so that she can give us back our privacy and freedom…. free from having a kicking baby sleeping with us….
Withdrawal Symptoms
One of Baby’s boops weaning withdrawal symptoms is that she would refuse to nap in the afternoon. We used to nap together in the afternoon and she would latch on to her comfort tools for comfort sucking and would easily drift into lalaland. Ever since she was weaned off my boops, she would refuse to…
Fascinated With Plasters
I was busy working on the PC and Baby was playing by herself. She went into her mah mah’s bedroom and rummaged through her drawers. Then she ran outside to the living room and sat on the couch. Then there was silence for about 15 minutes. I thought she was watching an interesting TV program…
My Little Acrobat
After 2 weeks of being weaned from my boops, Baby is still suffering from withdrawal symptoms. She has become very rebellious, very whiny and screamy and is resisting everything that I ask her to do… from peeing to napping, sleeping and everything else. Yesterday she woke up from her afternoon nap screaming and then climbed…
Water Baby
Cassandra is another water baby just like Alycia. She loves the pool to bits and is not afraid of the water but sadly, I can’t allow her to swim in the pool. After a post-surgery UTI attack in December last year, which was after a dip in the pool in Hard Rock Hotel Penang, I…
Driving Me Bonkers
Baby is now at the stage where she wants to be independent and wants to do everything herself. She wants to feed herself, dress up herself, shower herself and even clean herself up after she had pooped. Yesterday after pooping in her diaper, she refused to have me clean her up. This fella is driving…
Cassandra, My Little Model
I spent a big part of my morning, sweating and pulling my hair trying to get Baby to dress up and pose for me to snap her pix. My stock for the Suri Cruise (Magic Cube and Amissa brand) dresses arrived yesterday and some sizes are still up for grab, thus I decided that if…
Day 6 Cassandra Is Weaned Off The Breasts
The withdrawal symptoms were still pretty bad on Day 6. Baby refused to nap in the afternoon and for the first time in her life, she skipped her afternoon nap. By 9pm, she was so dead tired that she fell asleep on the couch with a bottle of Vitagen in her hand, only half a…
Bad Case Of Withdrawal Symptoms — Boopless
It has been about 5 days Baby is weaned off my boops. While she does not ask for my boops anymore, the withdrawal symptoms are pretty awful. From an angelic toddler, Baby has transformed overnight into a screaming, vengeful rascal, as if to get back at mummy for confiscating her comfort tools . She is…
Withdrawal Symptoms
Baby has been having withdrawal symptoms on the 3rd day she’s weaned off my boops. On day 2, she was alright as we were out shopping at Mid Valley Megamall for 5 hours. The withdrawal symptoms appeared since yesterday (3rd day). She kept asking to munch on snacks – biscuits, organic crackers, cherry tomatoes, biscuits…
Finally, Baby Is Weaned Off My Boops..
…and it was a red cili padi that managed to scare my own little cili padi and prevented her from going near my boops. Today is Day 3. Hooray!! I had wanted to wean Baby off my boops when she turned 2yo but just did not have the heart to do it as she seemed…
