My sil in Hong Kong has been inviting us to travel to Hong Kong to visit her. She has even offered to give us a treat to Disneyland in Hong Kong. I must say Alycia and Sherilyn are really lucky to have such a good aunt who is ever willing to shower them with gifts….
Blog Break
I will be unable to blog for 1-3 days from today. That’s because hubby has applied for the name for our fixed phone line to be changed from his sister to his name. And our Streamyx connection has to be disconnected to facilitate the change in name. Can you beat that? I just don’t understand why our government departments…
Baby C Only Wants Mummy’s Teats
I got so exhausted letting Baby C suckle my teats the whole day and night that I decided to give her the pacifier 2 days ago but know what? When her lips touched the pacifier, she furrowed her eyebrows, then used her tongue to push out the pacifier and gave me an expression that said…
Cassandra’s Fullmoon Party
We celebrated Baby C’s fullmoon on Thursday, 8th May, i.e. 1 day earlier so that koo koo (youngest sil) is able to attend as she had to fly back to Saipan the following day. We had buffet dinner (maki, sushi, chicken curry, beef rendang, turmeric rice, fried rice, stir-fried mixed vege, tartlets, red eggs with…
Get The Queen Gem For The Gem Of Your Life
Ask any woman what she loves and she will tell you that she loves gems and jewelries. Some love diamonds whilst others love pearls, the ‘queen gem’ that represents purity, happiness and success. A pearl necklace is a timeless piece and can never go out of fashion. It is indeed a classic jewelry and is an…
Blinds That Liven Up A Place
Roller window shades Choosing the right custom window treatments or blinds can really liven and lighten up a place. I remember working at an office that was facing a golf course and a lake with tastefully designed interior and furniture. Some of the things that impressed many of our clients were of course the view…
CL’S GONE AND I AM SO BUSY
My confinement lady’s finally gone back today. While I can finally breathe a sigh of relief that she’s gone, I have been really busy, so busy with Baby C who is super cranky today that I hardly have time to do anything else. She has been crying and whining the whole day and I’ve been nursing her…
Baby C Doesn’t Want Formula Anymore
After successfully breastfeeding Baby C exclusively for 3 days in a row, she does not want formula today. I had nursed her at around 8am today. At 9:15am, she was whining away, not really crying but the sort of whine that is asking for my teats. I was having breakfast and I asked my confinement…
Miami Heat Tickets
Have you ever watched a basketball match live? For someone who has no interest in basketball, for once I had interest in the game when hubby brought me to watch a basketball match at an indoor basketball court played by his group of basketball friends who were once national basketball players. It’s such a huge…
Cassandra 28 Days Old
Today Baby C is 28 days old. Tomorrow, daddy will be throwing a fullmoon party at home. The weather has been horrendously hot lately, so hot that my CL dressed Baby C in a singlet today…. and I could see that she looked so comfy wearing it. Baby C sweats easily and she even sweats in the air-cond…
It’s Going To End Soon
One and a half more days…. that’s the remaining number of days I have to tolerate my confinement lady. I can’t believe I survived almost 1 month tolerating that old lady with a queer behavior and an expression of a fierce matron hanging on her face the whole day and night and someone who has…
Stories From The Operation Theatre… Part 4
continuation from Part 3….. When I was at the recuperation bay outside the OT after the c-section, I saw the young lady who went in for a brain surgery on my right and the man who went in for a nose surgery on my left. The man had a bandage on the bridge of his nose and…
Stories From The Operation Theatre… Part 3
Before I was wheeled into the OT room to deliver Baby C, I waited outside the OT. As I lay on the bed in the freezing room, a young lady (in her early 20s) and a man (in his early 40s) were waiting there too. I could see that everyone looked tensed. Instead of feeling…
Florist Business
My cousin runs a florist and has been in this business for the past 2 years. Business has been good and she gets most of her orders from hotels and companies. When we met at a wedding dinner recently, she told me that she plans to open a branch in another town. I was really amazed…
Lotus Roots Hands
I did not really believe that exclusively breastfed babies will be chubby until I saw Elaine’s baby JL. Now that I am exclusively breastfeeding Baby C, I can see her grow chubbier by the days. I did not realize that she already has ‘lotus roots’ hands (which make me want to squeeze and bite them!)…
Stories From The Operation Theatre… Part 2
Continuation from here… When the terrible trembling and shivering did not stop, the nurses gave me 4-5 thermal blankets. I felt a tad better but the shivering was involuntarily and out of my control and I just could not stop my teeth from chattering and body from shaking. My teeth chattered so hard and my jaw hurt so much that I…
