Things Jerry Says #24 – X.silly’s 6th Birthday
Here’s a secret I am going to share. A silly one. Der & I buy cakes to celebrate x.silly‘s birthday every year. It has been something that we have been doing ever since Der gifted me with x.silly. I think I shared before, but I can’t find any blog post on it. And yup, we love being silly like that. So this year, it is the same. I bought a cake and Der happened to give me a ride home from the train station that day with the kids in tow. Jerry spied my bag cautiously.. Jerry (J): Mummy, what are you holding? Mummy (M): It’s a cake for x.silly. J:…

Things Jerry Says #20 – Who is its mother?
Here’s a new Things Jerry Says post for this week! If you are new here, “Things Jerry Says” is a series of conversational posts with Jerry, my first born. He has been getting really apt in his conversational skills and sometimes, says the weirdest and funniest things that throw us off. I document them down because I know this phase will soon pass and I want to retain these moments somewhere, so that someday, I can read some day and reminisce the times when he is growing up. Today, we were playing pretend play with x.silly, a small cuddly pig that the husband gifted me many years back. X.silly is…

happy birthday to me.
some weeks back, I turned another year older. uneventfully. I think birthdays get a whole lot more toned down as I age. I spent the day on a quick date with the husb, out watching hossan leong’s stand up comedy and had loads of laughter for company. had a quick dinner before we zipped home for the kids. thank you all who sent well wishes and greetings my way through fb, text messages, whatsapp, IG and all other social platforms, thank you very much. I may not have replied them all, but I read every single one of them and feel very much loved. the highlight of the day…

Someone gets a surprise!
The husband whipped out 2 tiny tic tacs today for x.silly. He has been rather gloomy in our books because of all the attention being lavished on jerry since his arrival, and he has sorta been a wee bit neglected. (pardon all the role playing between the husband and me) so, he gets a surprise! Now, can you tell that I’m mighty jealous? The tic tacs are sooooo cute. I attempted to do an exchange with x.silly using my super big pack and he refused! Sigh. That baby. He doesn’t know better. I have so much more sweets in the big pack. trivia: x.silly is actually Xiao (小) silly. I’m…

Green Lantern.
The hubby and me snuck out for a movie on Sunday night again. Am very thankful for my mum who is always ready to care for my baby and let me heads out with ease. We caught the green lantern and I like the movie! Pretty awesome but I cannot wait to watch the transformers which is launching today! Anyhow, we ended the movie date in a debate. (warning: spoiler ahead if you haven’t watched the movie). There’s this liner that says, the bigger you are, the faster you’ll burn …in one of the scenes where Hal will single-handedly defeat parallax by drawing him to the sun. Der says he…

The babies goes for a wash..
In anticipation of the arrival of Jerry, all the babies get a wash too! Last wednesday, when the sun was good, my mum started on the deed. I’m quite amused at how my mum hangs them out to dry.. But guess who gets left out and is happily sleeping on the bed? Haha! This greeted me when i got home.. I thought it was left out on purpose but my mum insisted that she took everything to the wash.. Oh well, till the next wash. All my toys are clean and smelling really nice but der hates the detergent smell and prefers his smelly babies. Heh. Posted via LiveJournal app…

The smelly little one gets new clothes!
After years of searching, we finally found a top that fits x.silly! I have been wanting to clothe him, mainly to prevent his disintegration that fast.. And to protect his ‘fur’ so that he doesn’t need to go into the wash so frequent and wear out faster.. But he’s like so so tiny and hardly anything fits! We found really tiny baby socks for him in Europe while we were on honeymoon (finally after 3 years of search) and he looks damn cute in them.. The other day, we managed to find this t-shirt hanging mobile.. And decided to buy it! Incidentally, it’s the last piece and it says, pregnant…

The little pink one has new baby socks!
Last week, the cute little one got new socks as presents! They were a tad big for him but still looking damn cute. The clean white socks made him look really dirty in comparison though so a bath time for him is in the pipeline. Posted via LiveJournal app for iPhone.

Der’s mischief..
Wrong babies in the baby cot.. Thought it’s quite funny that the boy actually took some effort to line them up nicely. Posted via LiveJournal app for iPhone.

Rainy Saturday..
Spent a productive Saturday! Got out of bed early and shifted the furnishings around in the room to make way for the cot delivery! Headed out with aunt (she’s here in Singapore to help take care of myMum while she tries to rest and recover from her recent surgery), brother and der for dim sum at Hua tin. Yummy, but these days.. I can’t seemed to stomach much and the only joy I had was the mango purée with herbal jelly, sago and pomelo. Haha. My boy has got a sweet tooth and is more receptive to all things sweet! Swung by goodwood park for 20pcs of durian puff goodness……
