Guess How Much This Chunk Of Siew Yoke Cost Me

Posted on March 18, 2010 by Shireen

I ran past the market-on-van the other morning and this chunk of siew yoke (roast pork belly) hanging on the van caught my eyes. I thought the most it would cost me was RM10 but when the seller told me the price, I almost flipped! Anyway, cost aside, this piece of siew yoke was really…

My Wednesday

Posted on March 17, 2010March 17, 2010 by Shireen

Today has been a very busy day for me. Here’s what I was up to: 1) Spent several hours in the bank in the morning. First to cash out my Google Adsense earnings from Western Union, then bank in the kids’ ang pow money, put some stuff into the Safe Deposit Box and to make…

There Indeed Are Kind Souls Everywhere

Posted on March 15, 2010 by Shireen

I am deeply touched, so touched that I am choking with emotions now. A few days ago, one of my blog readers sent me an SMS. She told me that she had read about Baby’s latest UTI attack. She was so concerned for Baby that she sent me a pack of supplements costing close to…

Sherilyn will be one very happy girl if she does not have to eat rice with dishes for dinner. Here, she’s having mah mah’s homemade wholemeal bread with butter and meat floss for dinner. Whenever my mil is around, Sherilyn does not get to eat bread for dinner very often. The kids have to eat rice…

Anxiety Attacks

Posted on March 14, 2010March 14, 2010 by Shireen

Ever since Baby had her very first UTI attack when she a mere 7-week old infant, my life has turned to an almost 360 degrees. When the first MCUG scan showed that she had a grade III kidney reflux when Baby was about 2 months old, I felt like a gunny sack filled with a ton…

Going Through The Throes Of Motherhood

Posted on March 13, 2010 by Shireen

Today is only the first day of the school holidays and I am already so steresssssed up! Minding my 2 older gals is a chore – whenever the gals don’t have to go to school, they have no urgency to do anything. I have to keep reminding them to drink milk, wash up, brush teeth,…

My Friday

Posted on March 12, 2010 by Shireen

It has been a very hectic week for me. This afternoon, I was at the paed’s clinic at PMC with Baby. Her pee smelled a tad foul today and there was a tiny red patch on her down under. You can read more about this in my health blog. I will update it later tonight…

The Latest Sure-Works Motivation For The Girls

Posted on March 11, 2010 by Shireen

… to get up from bed in the morning is their new bicycles. For the past 3 months, it’s been a struggle for Alycia to stay awake when I jolt her up from her sleep at 6am to get ready for school. It’s even 10x worse for Sherilyn. From pulling her up from bed to…

Daddy had promised Sherilyn that he will buy her a bicycle for her 5th birthday recently. But when he brought her to Toys R Us last month, there wasn’t any suitable bicycles.

Sleeping On The Job

Posted on March 9, 2010March 8, 2010 by Shireen

Rascal #2 is a real slacker when it comes to doing her homework. She will surely have tons of excuses to give me each time I remind her to do her homework. This hyper Energizer bunny who rarely feels tired or sleepy in the afternoon dozed off one afternoon last week when I asked her…

Bruises And Cuts Everywhere

Posted on March 8, 2010March 8, 2010 by Shireen

My sweetie-pie is transforming into a naughty-pie fast and furiously. Nothing can stop her from climbing up table tops, sofa tops, beds, playpen and chairs. She has been falling down and hurting herself very, very frequently now. The other day, the moment I turned my back to get something I heard BANG followed by a…

Easy-To-Make California Roll

Posted on March 7, 2010 by Shireen

Alycia was craving for California roll / hand roll early this week. Day after day, she pestered my mil to make char siew California rolls for her.

This Is What Happens If She Eats Rice Or Porridge

Posted on March 6, 2010March 6, 2010 by Shireen

Whenever there is pasta, spaghetti or noodles, I will have no problem getting Baby to eat her meals on her own. She can kuai kuai sit on her booster seat at the dining table and chomp down the bowl of noodles or pasta in a jiffy by herself. But my mil says Baby is Chinese…

Posted on March 5, 2010March 4, 2010 by Shireen

Baby’s Terrible Two symptoms are getting stronger and stronger each day. It’s now a chore and struggle to get her to pee in her potty, let alone poo poo. She did very well in this department when she was first potty trained at about 15 months old. Now, she has regressed, boo hoo hoo…. 🙁 Yesterday…
