Phew! Finally, I get to be on leave for a while. It’s gonna be busy busy busy as well these whole week. I have an event coming up this Saturday with my partner. Yes, I am doing event such as opening, wedding planning, party, engagement, fullmoon and more. Although it’s busy but a really fullfilling expereince. I love it! 

The kids are fine. It’s holiday and there are both sticking to each other at home. Ivan is all about games, games, and more games everyday. He has put on some weight I noticed, a fuller face. Perhaps, no more worries or hectic and difficult home work for him. All he could think of is wake up earlier than usual time, no need to call, wake up automatically to start his day of games.

As for Adel, she has grown up so much. A taller girl with more words uttered and a lot more demand. She screamed out loud and demanded me not to tie my hair yesterday. I thought what happened? I released my hair, she screamed again and said ” Mama no tie hair.” So I release my hair and she stop screaming. I tie again and she showed face and said “Mama no tie hair” again. :) She is a funny girl.  Hahahaha! 

Gosh! I have been real busy after my colleague has gone for maternity leave. I told her to better treat me makan when she comes back. And she said, “thank you, I will help you when you have your third child”. WHAT? I told her, “No Thank you and I don’t need your help”. NO WAY I am gonna have the 3rd one. Scary! My second one is still screaming her lungs out at age 2 here and she pula suggest to have the third one. No, no, no and NO! I am very contented with two that I have now. Many have told me that they regretted not having more when all kids have grown up. I think I prefer to still stick with two now. Let the regret comes later. Keke!  

What about you?If you have thought to stop having kids, what do you do to prevent yourself from getting pregnant? I have had friends taking contraceptive pills, some with a device on arms to prevent pregnancy, some use condoms, some did sterilisation. Any other better way? Was thinking of ICD (Intrauterine Contraceptive Device), heard it won’t intefere with hormone later. Got to start looking at it seriously. 

Look at her watery eyes, has been crying very often lately when she don’t get her way. She is at this “terrible two” Phase. Poor girl just recovered from fever last few days.

Just got these earrings done for Ivan’s teachers to thank them during teacher’s day. Chicsecret is having mid-year sale now. Do spread the news and would appreciate if you would “Pong Chan” a bit. Thanks!

It’s been a long time since we brought the kids out for excursion, especially adel. Due to her demanding-ness at this terrible 2 stage. Thanks to labour day and mommy is less stress and more at ease, we woke up early and head to midvalley to get a glimpse of the various monsters and dinosaurs on display. Both the kids got a little quiet and reserved due to the oversized display and its eerie sound… adel clinged on tightly to daddy all the time.

For the price that we were paying, I didn’t expect much. To pay RM 8 for kids 5-15 for entrance ticket is reasonable. Surprisingly, there were plenty of crowds and we spotted a family came with body guards as well. Guess everybody loves Dino.

Hey there! How is everyone? Hope you guys are doing well. Just thought of pending down some of Adel’s development.  I owe it to her, I have never written anything about her since her birth. Not that I love her less, but I really hardly have anytime to blog nowadays. I promise to do more in the future. 

This little girl is really sweet in her own way. She is turning 20 months this 11 of March. She loves twirling my hair whenever she wants to sleep, though it gets kind of irritating sometimes and she always accidentally pulled of some of my hair.  :) But that’s fine as I really love seeing her up close especially when I feed her. Yes, I still breast-feed her, only at night.  Just can’t get rid of it yet, love the bonding feeling so much, don’t know how to stop.  

She smiles a lot and greets us all. She can utter some simple words like papa, kor kor (bro), mama, kaka, jia jia (sis), gong gong, po po, ball, nei(barney), mum mum (eat), nen nen (my milk), mer mer (formula milk), me, go, come, mouth, nose, eyes, ear, bud (bird), bear, pooh, bo (gymbo), mou-she (mickey mouse) and so on. She is very chatty, she wld say things like”mama, bla bla bla bla bla…”, can’t understand her except mama. Basically a lot of uh uh ar ar and plenty of gestures. When she wants to pee, she wld say “erh erh”. She is off diaper during day time, except sleeping. Sri started training her b4 the CNY. She is doing well so far, that really help save us quite some expenditure on diapers. Good for the environment too…keke!   

Like all girls, she is fond of starring at her own self in the mirror and mimicking me putting on cream on her face using her tiny little fingers. 

I send her to Gymboree on the weekends, that’s the only time she gets to go out. Poor girl! Hope to have more excursion with her when we have more time. I am doing a part time course on sat to upgrade myself. Therefore, weekend again is super duper busy for me. The two kids are making lots of noise right now. Ivan is a big bully at home. He scratched his sister a few times already, leaving her marks and spots on her hand. Notty notty boy!

She looks all chubby in her cheong sum during CNY.  

 Her signature sweet smile…

Her not so happy times when Ivan bully her.She gets all sweaty very easily. And her feet smells too…yacks!   

Angel face in the morning…      

Welcome 2009! Time really flies, it’s a whole new year. I have so many to accomplish this year. It had been a great year for me in yr 2008. Hopefully 2009 is gonna be as great as 2008.

Hope the new year brings us all more luck, wealth and health. Happy New Year!

Since Ivan was around when I was looking for clothes to wear for a friend’s wedding dinner, I asked him:

Which one is nicer? The red or brown one?

He says, the red one is nice, the brown one also ok. (Very diplomatic)

I took out another pink one. What about this pink one? Nice?

He paused for a while and said yes, then continue by saying the red one also nice. So I asked him, why is the red one nice?

Because it has got flowers on it. (Actually the dress is as old as him. 5yrs already. Luckily it still fits me well.)

Anyway, Finally he agress that the pink one looks classier. So I wore my pink one after make-up.

Ivan, mommy pretty or not?

No answer…

Ivan, mommy pretty or not?

Yes, mommy, you’re more than pretty.

haha! I was a bit shock that he said “more than pretty.” Obviously I was overwhelm with his praise.

I had a great night meeting up ex-colleagues after such a long time.

Time flies, Adel is 10 months old now. It’s a bundle of joy to see her happy face and genuine sweet smile everyday. She is a great eater too, never picky about food; whatever Sri serve, she would happily gobble down her throat.  She has two pearly white at the bottom of her gum, constantly looking for things to bite in order to soothes her itch gum. I could feel her teeth while breast-feeding her. She used to bite me, ouch, but after a few times of “NO”, she learnt. She could pull herself up since 9 months and could crawl super fast now.

There’s two more months to go before I decided to stop breast-feeding her. If I could I would not stop, I think I am gonna miss feeding her so much. I really want to breast-feed her as long as I could. However, I can’t, simply I don’t feel eager enough to share my breast between my daughter and my husband. Sounds funny eh? I wonder does breast-feeding mothers out there facing such dilemma?Therefore, I need to put a stop to it and takes care of my hubby’s need too. I hope I have done enough for Adel. 

Adel very busybody,  disturbing her brother doing homework.

As for Ivan, he is growing fast and demanding as well. He is better at handling homework and Mandarin. While watching “Wah Lai Toi” with me, he could point out words like “牛肉,妈妈,头” at the subtitle on the screen and words at Chinese restaurant’s wall. He is crazy about Ben 10 toys, watch and games at the moment, every now and then, he wants toy. Boy, do you know that mom and dad’s wallets are very windy and have very big hole edi?

Ben 10 toys. 

 Ivan gave me this. Sweet! 

Well, hope all mother’s are happy in this Mother’s day. Happy mother’s day to all dedicated mothers.
