Bamboo Charcoal Bread And Yam Kaya From Sbread

When I was having lunch at Gardens, Mid Valley the other day, I stumbled across a little store selling bread. Sbread only sells 3 types of bread, i.e. Bamboo Charcoal bread, black sesame seeds bread and multi-grain bread. They also sell homemade yam kaya and pandan kaya, cooked at the store itself.

My Little Sleeping Beauty

… has been sleeping all day coz she took 3 doses of sedation meds this morning in order to knock her out completely for the MAG 3 scan.  I tell you, it was yet another stressful and anxious day for me at the hospital. After spending the whole morning and afternoon at the hospital today, my sweetiepie…

Peeka-Boo!

My sweetiepie loves playing peeka-boo with us now. One of the ways of keeping her still while we quickly dress her up after her bath is to play peeka-boo with her. My maid will be the one putting a nappy over her face and playing peeka-boo with her and I will hurriedly dress her up and…

Our Sunday

Today is the first time hubby and I went shopping with Baby C minus Alycia and Sherilyn. Both Alycia and Sherilyn are down with a cold and we wanted them to get enough rest at home before their trip to Hong Kong next week. My main purpose of going to Mid Valley Megamall today was…

Toe-Sucking Baby C

The Chinese old wives believe that when your baby begins to suck his/her toe, the mummy will soon have a sibling for the baby. I didn’t believe this crap when my mum told me this but now I am beginning to believe this myth. Alycia began sucking her toes when she was 5 months old and…

Baby C Loves Purple Sweet Potato Bread

The other day, hubby bought a loaf of purple sweet potato bread from RT Pastry House, our favorite bakery. This bread tasted so good and all the kids, including Baby C loved it. I loved it too and kept nibbling on it… fei sei ngor lor!! The bread was sweet, soft, fluffy and… fattening! But…

Baby C’s Wierd Sleeping Pose

These days, Baby C has a tendency to wake up at around 6:30am just before I leave the house for my morning jog/gym. If she does, I’ll bring her along. By 9ish am, she would be cranky and sleepy but 3 days ago, I found her asleep in less than 1 minute upon me putting…

Counting Down To Baby C’s Surgery Date

No mother would possibly know what my feelings are right now unless they have a child who is about to go for a major surgery. I am worried, anxious, sometimes I feel pessimistic and at other times I feel optimistic. Once in a while I feel like crying too when I think of what my…

Still Feeling Sluggish

I told myself last night that I’d hit the sack at 9:30pm together with Baby C and skip gym/jogging this morning so that I can get an extra hour of shut-eye but my plan never ever materializes.  Baby C woke up at 5:30am and poo poo and I had to wash her up.  This normally happens whenever she has a…

Got To Dig Out My Breast Pump Soon

The last time I used my breast pump was more than 8 months ago. I have since kept the breast pump and Baby C has been latching on directly since then. I prefer direct latching on as it’s so convenient, I can feed her anywhere at anytime and I don’t have to wash and sterilize…

Baby C At The Toys-Throwing Phase

Baby C is now at the ‘throwing things out from playpen and cot’ phase. When Alycia was at Baby C’s age (around 9-10 months), she too loved throwing toys out from the playpen and cot. Being my first child, I didn’t know that babies go through this phase. I thought Alycia was being really cheeky…

Alycia My Assistant Babysitter

Alycia is my best assistant babysitter and she’s really a very caring, protective and loving cheh cheh to Baby C. Sherilyn is too but most of the time, she’s too playful and too rough with Baby C. Whenever I need to take my shower, I will put Baby C in the cot, ask Alycia to go…

Cheeky Cassandra

Despite the challenges that Baby C has to endure, she is nonetheless a very cheeky and adorable baby. Though I am under tremendous stress and anxiety due to her health condition, Baby C never fails to make me smile and laugh.   How can I not roll on the floor and laugh when I see the antics that she…

Putting Socks On Baby C’s Hands

Baby C is never happier than being placed on the floor to gallivant. Her favorite spots are under tables and chairs. Her eyes are super sharp and even from a distance of a few feet away, she could detect objects like dirt and dropped food (rice, bread and biscuit crumbs)…. and boy does she love…
