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.

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.   

The other day when I was coaching Ivan with his home work, (They are tons of them, sometimes we finished hw at 11pm, CARZY!) he got frustrated with me correcting his mistake in Chinese Characters, he threw his pencil, and said,

“You just throw me to the rubbish la.”

“Huh?” I got so stunned, gosh!!! (He must have picked up what I said about throwing him to the smelly rubbish dump if he is naughty.)

This is not the first one, there are more…in the car, while talking, he got upset with me and bla out something like this,

“You just throw me outside la and the cars will langgar me.” -”bite fingers.“

“I hope you are joking, I care for you that’s why I tell you all this. If you are not my son, I don’t think I will care. Like those dogs outside, nobody care for them, no food, no milk, no home, no toys, no mummies, do you want that to happen to you?”

““No”, he replied.

 ”You are joking right?” I asked him again.

“Yes, I am joking”, with a frown.

Hello! Miss me or not? I really miss all of you bloggers. I have been real busy lately, time really flies and there are so many occurrences. We attended Ivan’s school concert, it was awesome. He surprised us by his very charming performances. I am glad that he has shown lots of improvement in school. My poor boy is recovering from chicken pox now. Aiya…the maid la, past chicken pox to my boy. Luckily it was just a very minor one. The fellow is now playing games beside me. He is very super “geng” and “savy” with his games. I do limit his time of play though, he now gets to play only after dinner.

As for Adel, she is growing up fast and well(6.2kg now).  Drinks quite a fair bit, has a better pattern of drinking and sleeping. It’s easier to handle her now. During day time, we send her to the nanny. Yup, I started working again on Monday. Initially I wanted to start work after Dec but when an opportunity arises, I just grab it, can’t afford to loose it. My mom-in-law is in Australia now looking after my sil whom just gave birth as well. Back to my work again, it’s a totally new area I am venturing into. There are a lot to pick up at work. I was not brief by my predecessor so I kind of have to pick up piece and pieces she left in the office.

Oh Yea, I am still breastfeeding Adel like normal except I express it in the office. It is fortunate that the environment is very friendly. It has a room with toilet attached that I could use to express milk. At home I still feed her direct. I find it so convenient feeding her direct especially at night. No hassle, easy-peasy, just lift up the shirt and feed. Haha! I really hope I could keep feeding her as long as possible. I am a little stress out today, having shoulder ache and I need a lot of sleep. I am gonna get some sleep now. I love to hang out with u bloggers again. Please do keep me in the loop if there is any meet up in the future. I am like so outdated. ZZzzzz… 

While I was sound asleep in the morning around 8am. Ivan called out for me,

“Mommy… wet wet.” He was referring to his pants. He forgot to go to the loo for his pee. He wet his pants and his favourite blue blankie. He loves his blankie so much that it’s hard to part with it. When he heard me saying to send his blankie for wash, he cried aloud like no tomorrow. Not able to stand the noise I told him,  

“You can keep it but it’s wet and filled with your pee”.  “Whose pee is that?”  I asked on purpose. 

”It’s Ivan’s” he claimed while crying pathetically. 

Therefore, I let him cry while getting some water for him to drink at a corner.  Give it a guess what I heard while I was away? 

“Nobody care about me”….wailllllllllll 

“Nobody love me”……….wailllllllllllllllllllll 

“Nobody sayang me”………………waillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll 

It makes me laugh instead of sad to hear that. I know he just wants attention, some hugging and assurance. I could tell that he has been feeling insecure lately; he climbed to our bed in the middle of the night to get some warmth. Therefore, I walked over to him and tell him that I love and care about him; gave him a tight hug, kisses and ask edhim to stop crying. He stopped after all gestures were done.  :)  Haha, my poor little boy! *shake head*  

For me, weekends are God made heaven. I would long for doing things with my son or husband. However, I am disappointed sometimes, as hubby is a late owl. He does not sleep until 3am in the morning and wakes up at about 12pm the next day. I have been catering to this kind of lifestyle for years. He would wake up early only if I force him to or we have some important family gatherings. When told him about how I like him to bring Ivan or me out for morning tea on Sunday, he would always say yes, yes, I would wake up early tomorrow. So much promise, however, when tomorrow comes, he would sleep like a pig. If I attempt to wake him up, I will be scolded. Gosh!!! I hate this so so much!  When I ask him about why can’t you sleep early the day before? His reply is “You are not me, you can never understand”. Aiyoo, Man! Always have excuses to cover their asses.  

On the other hand, Ivan is getting very sensitive over every single daily thing. He would wail and throw tantrum over minor things. I can never give in to his behaviour. I whacked and scolded him a lot lately. I know I shouldn’t be doing that, I am trying to control my emotions but I just can’t cope with so much noise and commotion. Poor little fella, he lost so much weight. The other day, while crying, he stamped his feet hard on the floor while questioning me, “Why u beat me everyday”, Why u scold me everyday”. Waillllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. *Sigh*

Got some of these stuff from Fabulous mom a while ago when they had sales. Preparing for the arrival of no. 2. Got this Adiri - Breast Bottle, thinking to let the confinement lady feed her at night so that I could rest well. I purchased 2 nursing tops, a bra and a milkmaid tea here as well using my ppp money. Kekeke!
