THE PAST 1 YEAR..

My hands been itching to write on my dusty ol' blog.. i've also uploaded my delivery story for memory's sake..

Pls bear with me as my first entry for the year is pretty long!! So, where shall I start??

Eshan
- he turns 3 in Apr this yr.. we had a mini bday bash for him.. and as all his past bdays, it HAD to rain!.. i think his next party (if we ever gonna have one again!) will be indoors.. but this year, he has 2 bday "bash".. the other one is indoors held in school with his classmates.. ;) lucky boy has 2 different bday cakes!!

- he's now more vocal.. sometimes rasa mcm nak sental mulut dia dgn cili!... now, he's favourite reply to us is "I knooowwww!" or "I knoooowwww lah!" with an irritated face.. very irritating!!!

- he loveeess to take pictures!!... he asked to have his picture taken!... alamak!... he can pose lor..
- he loves to play with our PS2 and handphone now.. he's discovered the world of gaming.. and it's irritating when he doesn't know when to stop!

- even though he can sometimes be such a devil (when he dun wanna listen!) but he can be such an angel when he actually listens to you... now, when he meets us at the end of the day, he will run to us and say "I miss you today"... how my heart softens when i hear him say this... :)

- he loves his sister to bits!!... other than the normal siblings' issue i think we, as parents all face, Eshan has grown up to be a good brother.. we just hope he's like this till he's old of course!.. hahhaa... i asked him for fun if he'd like to have another sibling and his answer "I want!".. i asked him if he'd like a boy or a girl then?.. his answer "Girl!" and why? "Bcoz i like Anousha. I want another Anousha."... tat's my boy! ;)
Anousha
- her growth spurt was greater than the brother.. coming in to earth oredi heavier than the brother, she grew much more too!... she's within the range of 75percentile to 90percentile for both weight and height.


- she loveeesss food (like moi!).. i refrained feeding her solid food till 6mths.. started her off on porridge and boy! can she eat!!... i had to cook for her ever 2-3 days coz she can eat a bowl full of porridge.. even before we feed her with solids, her mouth oredi starts going off like a goldfish ev'time she sees food. her first word is "mam!" for "nak makan!"... hahahaaa... and now, we just found out that she's gonna be the chilli queen in the house!.. we accidentally fed her very spicy briyani. we only found out it was spicy when we feed Eshan, he went "ooooh!.. HOT! HOT!"... for some reason, he continued eating (prolly coz his cuzz were eating as well) and was sweating profusely and drank water after every bite..but our dear girl - steady pom pi pi - no sweat, no drink, asking for more some more!...

- she started walking at 10mths. we're like "WOW!"... so fast??!!... she dun fancy crawling so much coz she only crawled for a while.. most times, she tries to support herself to wateva there was and walk. When she's learning to walk, she wants to run!.. aiyoh!... she's still not tat steady yet.. but she prefers to walk than be carried especially when we're outdoors.. but when we're indoors, she prefers me to be there with her - either carrying her or be in the same room while she plays!...

- she's too clingy to me.. with her around, my baking sessions almost grounded to a halt!.. baking sessions (reserved for potluck sessions with my ladies) were scheduled at night when she's asleep.. i've also learnt to schedule my time during the wkends to cook for the family.. very tiring lor!!

- her 1 yr bday was during the fasting month. so no bday bash for her like we did for Eshan.. :( poor thing!!.. but mama promise that you'll have one bday bash when u're 3!!.. i hope!!... coz next yr, her bday is like 3rd day of raya if not wrong.. hopefully, by her 3rd bday, it's a gd time to celebrate her bday for her! ;) if we're planning for the 3rd one, definitely cannot deliver during fasting month!.. hahahaa... but in any case, the next one will hopefully be a Dec babe!.. :p

- she's also such a "girl"!... she loves bags!.. but this "girly" girl is also a very garang girl!.. fiercer than the brother.. she'll be angry if you try to take away her bag... hahahhaa.... fiesty one this is!
Tat's the updates on my kids for the past year (in a nutshell!).. this year, there was also a major chg to moi... after 9 years of being in an organisation that i basically "grew up" in, i made a decision to move on to somewhere nearer home..

i have to say, it was a nerve-wrecking decision.. a few things happened in the office this year - that pushed me to move on.. with no high hopes, i sent out my resume to a few companies.. and when i was actually accepted to this place, it was like a dream come true... our prayers were answered.. and i can't say "no" to this.. :) of coz, it was a pretty sad feeling leaving the previous company.. i was fresh from sch when i entered the old place. an Exec Asst. a singleton.. tat's where i got my first experiences of a lot of major events.. got married. have both my kids there and was "promoted/reappointed/redegsinated" and left as a Snr Exec..

3wks in the new place.. i've got a gd feeling.. bosses are generally open and good.. colleagues have been wonderful. staff welfare is better than previous. not sure if it's too early to say this but i'm lurving this place!! ;)

oh!.. and coz of my job chg, i'm moving Eshan to a new sch juz opp our hse.. Anousha has already started just before i join the new workplace. Eshan will follow her next year.. we're just hoping he won't make such a biggie abt having to move sch, with new teachers and making new frenz!... for now, all he knows is he's going to sch with Anousha next year.. Anousha on the other hand does NOT like it going to sch!.. gaaaah!... she cries ev'time i leave her (out of sadness) and fetch (relief and happiness overwhelms) her!... and it doesn't help that she's not going to sch regularly ever since she started all thanks to HFMD!... :p

Dearest started his 6mths (part-time) course.. hopefully finishes in Apr next year... so he's not in 3times a wk... it's soooo tiring when he's not in.. :( i've to handle bringing the 2 kids up to the hse by myself from the carpark everyday.. *booooo!!...*

Hari Raya this year was so-so although i think we spent quite a lot this raya!.. hahahaa... from baju to decor of the hse to kuih (all kuihs done by myself!)... for next yr, Dearest has declared that his and Eshan's baju will be bought from the wholesale supplier.. me and Anousha can have ours tailored.. and i shall NOT ask mummy to buy us our kain bcoz she buys too expensive kains for us!... Dearest also asked me why i need to do the kuihs when we dun really have visitors?.. i told him, this is the ONLY time of the year i get to bake and eat my own kuih raya and not factory-made ones.. when else will i slave in the kitchen baking kuih lapis and kuih tart for the family eh??... :p

anyways, this yr we're slightly more "extravagant" bcoz of Anousha's arrival to the family and coz the hse is already coming to it's 3rd raya.. need to "spruce" up the place slightly!.. hahahaha... any excuse to shop lah!... :p

so there u have it... our life the past year.. i hope to update this blog more often from now.. see you readers soon... ;)

THE SECOND DELIVERY..
Now, let's see.. i'll begin with the birth of my second baby.. Anousha Aduka.. Delivered on 1 Sep 2009 (Happy Teacher's Day!!) at 3.1kg at 00:13hrs.. (Eshan was delivered at 12:41hrs - wat's with my kids and number 12??). Btw, Anousha is pronounced as A-nuu-sha as opposed to A-nau-sha coz "nuu" sounds better and easier to pronounce.. Delivery was deliriously speedy!... Definitely more intense and much more painful trying to deliver her than with Eshan.. but with her, i dun really need to wait for long!.. we saw the Doctor at about 6.30pm-ish for a check-up since i deliberately delayed her delivery for one more wk!.. without my knowledge, the doc inserted the pill to induce contractions so i was VERY surprised when i felt the contractions within 15-30mins of seeing him!..

Doctor's order was to go to the hospital IMMEDIATELY but errrmmm..
we looked for food first (to break fast lah!)..

go home.
bathed.
pack e-bag.
eat.
pick up cuzz.
send Eshan to Mummy's.
to the hospital we go....
* In between, the doc called to check up on our whereabouts!.. hehehee...

we reached the hospital at about 22:30ish.. the staff registering us was damn blardy slow.. she also wanted to finish registering both of us first before bringing us to the labour ward.. gaaaah!!... so anyways, at the labour ward, after donning hospital's clothes, laid down and had my water bag burst, i was basically "forgotten"!.. luckily, Dearest was there keeping me company..

I did ask him "why the hell did i agree to go thru this all over again??"... the pain was unbearable.. only after i ring for assistance did they realise they still have another patient in that ward!.. gaaaah!!... asked for the gas.. in trying to bear with the pain, the stupid nurse kept asking me questions that should have been asked waaaay before my water bag was burst.. the stupidest question of all was do you want to go pooh now? like hallooooo??... my contractions are coming in strong and rapid lor!!....

anyways, because i was using the gas correctly this time round, i was "gone" momentarily while they quickly push me to the delivery suite.. the feeling of being "gone" was very surreal.. it's like i cannot feel the pain but i can feel being pushed into the delivery suite, banging things along the way, hear ppl talking... i remembered even thinking am i dead?... hahhahaa... it must be the drugs that's running thru my veins.. :p

but anyways, delivering Anousha was harder than delivering Eshan.. as she was heavier than Eshan, i really had to push her out of my supposed "small" pantat.. after this episode, i'll have to think twice abt having to deliver a big baby!... *tat is, if i want to have another one lah!!*

so out came Anousha but i cannot help the feeling of wanting to pooh!... apparently, i pooh-ed a lot while deliverin!.. kwang.. kwang.. :p blame the nurse for not pooh-ing me first lor!!... but relief washed all over me when i get to hold Anousha.. :D and just like her brother, she suckled quickly and more intensely!...


and thank god, Eshan accepted his sister immediately... very protective.. we loike! ;) al-hamdulillah too i was able to deliver Anousha normally, without epidural and one less pain-killer.. total bill? - much cheaper than Eshan's.. ;)

Oh!.. and remember the cuzz we picked up before going to the hospital? well, she delivered a baby boy about 4 hrs after i did.. so the kids shared the same bday and the mothers shared the room and gynae! ;)

Congrats Ogy & Farhan for the birth of your 1st bundle of joy!!

TWITTERING & FACEBOOKING
I know it's been eons ago since i last updated..even my writing and typing has gone rusty!!...


FYI, i've given birth to my baby girl - if u've not realised it oredi!.. hahaha... Anousha is her name. Born on 1 Sep at 00:13hrs.


thank god for Twitter - Short msgs for an impromptu moment! i've been updating my twitter pretty regularly.. so, pls feel free to check my twitter updates on the right bar.. ;) Photos of Anousha can be found in my Facebook account..


will be back to work in a week's time.. so from now till then, i'll endevour to write entries of Anousha's milestones.. *cross fingers*

REVEALED..
and so yest, the top 24 of SI09 was revealed.. and wat a disappointing line-up.. :( i dunno why but i felt disappointed! kwang.. kwang.. kwang.. prolly coz there's no cute guys this yr?.. hahahha..


oh!.. but can i say that the brothers made me tear last nite?... really lah!... touching siot - 2 brothers bawling!... oklah.. a bit exaggerated coz the elder one was a bit more composed but still, he cried... awwwww..... but from the start, the younger one shouldn't even be in..


anyways, the time has also come for me to deliver the babe!... the doc gave the green light to deliver next wk... he actually wanted me to deliver yesterday.. but errr... nolor!... yest was a BIG No-NO date!.... so i asked if we can risk delivering next wk instead coz me and Dearest really do prefer a Sep babe.. ;)


yes.. it was a definite risk coz at 1 day to 37wks, the babe is 3kg exactly!... i really do hope that the machine is juz an estimation and that the babe's lighter than 3kg!... i dun think i can go thru the after pain of a caesarian.. i'm such a freakin scaredy cat to go under the knife.. so, plsssss babe.. if u're going to be slightly bigger than 3kg next wk, try ur mightest to push ur way out of mama's "small pantat", k?...


so, are we excited???... hell yeah!... can't wait to see the babe!.. anyways, after wks of waddling, constant peeing, feeling like there's a freakin huge watermelon in between me legs, braxton hicks (which only hits after maghrib), i think it's high time the babe is out!.. :D i seriously dun remember gg thru these when pregnant with Eshan!..


another "big" reveal - after yet another big chg that the organisation juz went thru, i think there'll be another slightly smaller chg that's gonna happen within our small unit by the time i get back from my maternity leave.. i sure hope it goes the way me and buddy wants it to be... buddy was great in the mtg yest.. he was very vocal abt his tots which was gd coz he's definitely more eloquent than me.. plus, i hate confrontational situations!.. and yeah!.. bcoz of tat, i was (directly or not) called a coward by my boss!... but wateva lah!... my buddy conveyed my tots oredi.. so tat's wat matters... so i dun really give a fuck wat he thinks!... anyways, we'll only know in a wk or two time if our "strategy" works though i do feel a teensy-weensy bad abt all these.. baaaah!...


so till my next update.. cheerios ppl!...

NAK "ANGKAT BUAH" PUN AGAK2 AH!
wah!... can't stand this someone who's trying soooo blardy hard to angkat buah someone!.. U shameless freak!...


and u do it sooooo blatantly obvious that not only is the whole dept talking abt it, the other dept are apparently talking abt it too!... gosh!.... malu lah sikit oooi!... tak bleh angkatz siak!


okie.. enuff abt this person!... update on my last check-up.. babe is 2kg as at Fri, 24 Jul (32wks+).. acc to the doc, the babe is definitely bigger than Eshan.. when i reminded him abt the baby having to be < 3kg upon delivery, he went "You cannot eat oredi!" like HUH?!!....


i was advised to drink lots of plain water instead of flavoured drinks.. and a gd thing Dearest banned me from pigging out at buffet outlets.. hahhahaa... so, there!... i can't pig out anymore till delivery.. kwang.. kwang.. kwang.. but it's not like i've BEEN pigging out.. i think my appetite is definitely lesser than when i was with Eshan.. howell!...


i hope the babe's progress would slightly slow down so tat we can hit the target of 9 Sept.. but if not, i hope we can wait it out till at least 28 Aug so tat it's bday will not be on the same day as someone!... hehehee....


we'll see... let's pray for the best for both of us! ;)

NEARLY THERE..
8wks and 1 day to go.. or less.. we're nearly there, baby.. :)


just as the ticker said, it does really feel like the babe is pushing it's way out rite this very minute!.. i think the babe's been stretching, kicking, punching at every of it's waking moment that it does get uncomfortable now.. :(


a colleague's wife is being induced today.. hmmm... i must say, i can't really wait for my turn to come! but at the same time, this anxious/nervous/excited/can-i-do-it? feeling of having an active toddler and an infant to care for come September is pretty overwhelming.. oooooh.... i really do wonder how it'll work out later... i'm pretty sure i can handle 2 by myself but i never will know till the time comes!... kwang.. kwang.. kwang..


oh!.. u know the "BIG" announcement that i was anxiously waiting for yesterday? well, it turns out, it is a freakin BIG announcement BUT it's not something that we (or at least me and my buddy) was expecting! :( such an upset! kwang.. kwang.. kwang..


anyways, this place is always CHANGING. i really dun mind changes as long as the change comes with a change of the boss too!... hahahhaa...

2 MORE DAYS..
counting down to the end of our service to the nation.. it was only yest that i met and got to hug and kiss the hubby after 5 freakin long days!..


but before the hugs and kisses, i had to wait up for the 2 boys who were out on a family function.. my body soooo needed a rest and good nite sleep but my mind and my heart juz wouldn't let me... missed the hubby soooo much so tat we had a good full 2hrs of catching up before i konked out.. :(


so niways... yeah.. 2 more days to go.. i need to sleep and rest and catch up with the lil one's antics.. felt like eons ago i last saw my boy coz everytime i'm back, he'll be asleep oredi!.. miss seeing him grow up!... grrrrr.... but at least i'm here in sunny island, Singapore.. and not some foreign land, serving the nation.. i think i'll not be sent anywhere for a while now.. :D


oh!.. we're juz lamenting how rude some of our t/e/a/c/h/e/r/s are!.. it's worrying that these are the very ppl who will be t/e/a/c/h/i/n/g our kids in future!... prolly, for every rude person that comes into this room, i'd have to ask where they're from so i know where not to put my children in!... seriously!... we do feel like smacking them sometimes!... grrrr..

SERVING THE NATION
3 wks of serving the nation.. gosh!.. :( it has been sucky-doo so far.. not much of the work but missing my boys.. not tat i dun see them but becoz i'm on shift now so, it's a bit of a toughie!..


and it doesn't help that i've lied to Eshan the past week juz so i can leave the house in peace.. sure he'd cry after finding me missing but it's better than him clinging on to me and me feeling ever so guilty abt it! :(


thank god i heard that they've not made me "serve the nation" anytime soon after this!.. *yippee!* so i can relax a bit and not be bothered abt who'll take care of the kids later.. :D


anyways, had a session with the doc yest and was warned not to eat too much coz the babe's bigger than Eshan.. hmmm... now, i dun think i've eaten that much lah.. i've only gained like another 2-3 kilos the past mth.. the babe's at 1.5kg at 28wks.. hmmm... howell, gotta cut down if i want an almost full-term baby since the babe has to weigh less than 3kg!..


The doc tried to take a 4D scan of the babe but it came out slightly fuzzy.. so the scan didn't come out as clear as we'd like - but like he said - better than nothing!.. when got time, i'll put up the pix! :) apparently, the babe's sleeping during scanning and it also seemed like the cheeks are all chubby and round!.. like moi perhaps??!... *kwang.. kwang..kwang..*


i seriously feel like taking a week-long MC after all this NS thingie is over!.. my bottom-half needs a break!.. a big break - coz it freakin ache everytime i walk - and i've been walking a lot!! plus i think the water's retention coming!! :( but it doesn't seem as bad as when i'm carrying Eshan.. so tat's prolly why the babe's bigger than Eshan?!.. *hah!*

16WKS (OR LESS) TO GO..
i'm at my 24wks as of yest and finally i put on some wt!... abt 2kgs.. ;) i was actually getting worried that i've not put on any "visible" wt for the first 20wks! ehhehehe...


though technically i shld be at my 24th wk, the babe's scan showed otherwise.. the babe's at 784g (so actually, 1kg of my gained wt goes to the babe.. can i say that?.. hahhaha..).. and with that, i'm actually at my 25th wk!.. hmmm.. the doc said it's ok.. the babe's growing well and we'll still target 15 sep as the EDD.. so this babe is definitely bigger than Eshan!!...


we were hoping for that 3D or 4D scan the doc wanna give us but notti baby dun wanna show it's face to us.. howell!.... next mth hor, baby!...


okie.. till whenever.. btw, ppl.. in case u dun already know.. Sat is officially "Makan with Family Day".. so go eat your hearts out yah.. ;) any special discounts that anybody know of?... pls share.. hehehe.. ;)

JUZ BCOZ..
soooo, Kris won... baaaah!.... howell!... like i've said before, not surprising!..


still pissed though that Adam din win! y can't the voters vote on the fact that he's the most talented among all the other past 7 idols they've ever had?.. grrrr...


anyways, me and Dearest discussed on the name for the babe.. and we've sort of compromised.. he dun like the "meaning" behind the name that i soooo badly wanted to name my child.. so, we chose another name that is similar but with a more "meaningful" meaning.. :)


hmmm.. i haven't really been updating much have i?... life's been bz.. work, Eshan and the lil' one inside me has kept me bz... hahhahaa... so till the next entry.. *muackss!*

KRIS IDOL?
oh!.. gosh!.. Danny's gone.. i tot he'd go all the way!! :( *booo!* he's cute in a geeky kinda way.. and when he does his ballad, i'd go soft!.. i dunno y!... i just feel that he's sooo into the song, i can feel him singing to his wife.. haiiizz...


anyways, since it's kris and adam next week, i am rooting for Adam BUT i won't be surprised Kris wins it! :) either way, both of them deserved to be in the finals!.. great work guys!!


on a more random tot - my baking mojo is back but i dun really have the time to do any bakings or search for new bakes but i am soooo into baking something mango.. hmmm... any ideas??... ;)

I SOOO WANNA BLOG..

abt Eshan's bday party tat was oh-so-wet!

abt Dearest's surprise bday party tat got ME surprised instead!

abt the babe tat's already 319g as at Tues, 28 Apr.

and yes.. i do know the confirmed gender of the lil' babe.. but hmmm.. i shall keep it a surprise (or not!) till delivery.. ;)

these days, time seemed too short for me to spend that half hr to blog / edit some ol' pix of mine.. haiiizzzz....

LEAVING ON A JET PLANE..
a few more hrs before we're OFF work and "HELLOOOO" long weekend! :)


for the first time in like 3 yrs, we're off for our first holiday as a family.. it's Eshan's first trip on the plane.. let's hope nothing goes wrong ie he doesn't scream his head off during take-off!.. kwang.. kwang.. kwang..


not that we're gg anywhere far.. somewhere near - to pig out and meet ol' frenz.. ;) can't wait!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DARLING!
My darling Eshan turns 2 today!... Happy Birthday!!..


Since turning 2 today, the "terrible-2" syndrome made it's debut..


he doesn't want to bathe and cleans up after he poos! earlier, he doesn't even want to use his diapers!.. grrr... i really pulled my hair this time.. as it is, i'm still sick from the flu bug he passed me yest and he doesn't anyone else to attend to him other than moi!...


howell!.. a mother's gotta do wat a mother's gotta do!...


so darling, i'll give you a week to get over the syndrome..
after that, i hope the lovable Eshan will be back in action! :)
here's wishing you health, joy, love and prosperity on your bday!!


Mama and Papa love u loads!!.. *muaccks!!*

IT'S A .. . .. .

Oklah.. i think it's abt time i update this very rusty blog of mine!!... those who knew has been asking when i'll make it official.. not that i din want to.. but i've just been too bz!!... at work, at home! :(


so here goes...


Eshan's gonna get a lil sibling come Sept!.. ;)

so when did we know? sometime before CNY.. i dunno if u guys remember.. i complaint tat i was having the runs.. and i literally s*!t in my pants one morning.. i dunno why.. but i juz knew.. bought the pregnancy test kit that same afternoon.. i tot i wanted to wait till i get home and tell Dearest abt my suspicion first and test it together.. but errr.. curiosity got the better of me..hehhee.. so, in the office's ladies it was!.. ;)


anyways, this pregnancy was somewhat planned although the babe came a tad too early.. i wanted a Dec babe to share my bday with.. but God had other plans.. anyways, Ramadhan is a gd mth for a baby.. :)


so 15wks on.. al-hamdulillah, the pregnancy had been pretty much smooth sailing except for that first few wks before and after finding out abt this pregnancy.. i had the runs and was pretty much nauseous the whole day..but still maintainable.. but look at me now!!...

i dun think my tummy was this big when i was carrying Eshan! Although i feel sooooo blardy bloated and fat! to date no one except for 1 person has asked me if i am indeed pregnant.. i think they don't wanna be rude lah!.. hahahha.. either tat, ppl must think that i'm blardy fat lor!... but in any case, my wt gain is slow.. *i do wonder why it's not this slow when i'm not pregnant!!* so, it's made me think that it's another boy... i was quite confident earlier in the pregnancy that it's a girl!.. but now... anyways, we'll wait for the next check-up yah..


So how's the babe doing at 14.5wks?

splendid! it actually grew much bigger than anticipated coz the EDD was brought forward from 17 sept to 13 sept.. this never happen to Eshan! doc's targeting EDD at 15 sept coz it's his bday... so we'll see.. we did a comparison with Eshan's scan and realised that this babe seemed to be bigger than Eshan.. at 14.5 wks, we can oredi kinda see his eyes, nose, fingers & toes!! it's amazing!! :)


The parents (incl yours truly) are hoping for a baby girl!.. the 4th generation of the Sury family is ALL boys.. with the latest addition from Supit & Ema (just last week, i think!), there's 5 grandsons altogether.. so yeah!.. we can all only wish, pray and hope that this is a girl!..


so okie.. till the next update.. btw, if any of u readers are ok to share - what's the old wives' tales on carrying a girl?.. juz for fun! :) hehehhe....

10 GLORIOUS YEARS TOGETHER..

Happy 10th Dearest! ;)

*muaaackssss!!*

the past 3 years have shown me more of who you are..
and though you're such a nag most times (hehehe..), i had never regret the day i uttered "I Accept" (to be your wife)..
coz i know ur good intentions and i love u for that!..


thank you for being there for me..
thank you for still loving me..
thank you for being YOU!..


i loved you yesterday..
i love you today..

*muacckss!!*

SEARCHING..

I'm searching for an Elmo cake for Eshan's bday!... can anyone recommend me anywhere to place my order, plsssss??..... errr.. pls dun recommend P/O/L/A/R coz that'll be my absolutely last resort!! :)

thanks!

IT'S THURSDAY!

I can't believe it's Thursday.. it felt like i juz started my week long leave.. urrrgh!... i'm back to face reality in juz a few days time!! :( *bummer*


anyways, the parents were here a few days back for dinner.. they've decided not to stress me out... hahhaa... we had ice-cream for dessert tat day and guess wat?!... Eshan can now ice-cream in a cone on his own!... gosh!!.... Mummy said "he's juz like u!"

he's not even 2 yet but he behaves like a big boy oredi!... haiyah!!.... y do kids grow up very fast??...


me and Ms Gems did go out for some shoe shopping yest.. i did get 2 shoes - like FINALLY! i would love to get MORE but errrr.. with my size 41 feet, i think cannot ask for too much lah hor?.. but dear readers, if u guys know of any shoe shops in SIN that sells shoes size41 and abv other than C&K and P/e/d/a/l/W/o/r/k/s, do let me know yah?!! :)


I'm not really sure how i'm going to spend the next few days.. but i'm soooo not looking forward to going back to work come Monday!! brrrr....

IT'S BEEN AWHILE..
so, it's been a mth since my last update.. i'm soooo bogged down with work that i juz wanna spend time with eshan once i'm home... been feeling ultra tired too the past weeks.. soooo very uninspired to blog..


not only tat, i've been uninspired to bake as well!! :( although there's def an itch here and there to bake past bakes but juz couldn't find the time to do it!! urrrrgghh!!...


so wat have we been up to of late? well, basically NOTHING much.. although we did receive a pleasant surprise rite before CNY.. ;)


Eshan's into reading lately.. he would get me to read his Barney or Thomas books over and over again.. penat u!!... but at least his attention span is slightly longer now..hahaha... he can say "Plssss.." while clasping his 2 hands! and "thank you"... but he's now choosy with his food. He's now into fishballs that he would only juz have fishballs-nothing else!... every other thing, we need to squeeze by him and pray that he doesn't "notice".... sheesh!!.... oh!... he's also very protective or shall i say very selfish of his things?!....urrrgh!!.... it makes me mad!... i really hope it's a phase... plsss tell me it's a phase!!...


niways, i'm now on a week's leave "holiday" while the maid goes on her 2.5wks holiday.. i need to do some shopping!!.... i hope Ms Gems' free one of these days.. hehhheee... *hint! hint!* ;) oh!.. mummy juz told me that she wants me to cook for them everyday this week!... haiyoh!... quite stressed lor...

HAVE A FABULOUS 2009!
I'm sorry this came a day late.. but here's wishing all my readers, a FABULOUS 2009 - a year of joy, health and wealth surrounded by your loved ones..


May the world be a better place filled with love, joy and peace...


*muackss!*
