Cherie
Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.

Jerry was hiding my tummy! LOL. i just got back.. not too bad, i had my mum with me so there’s an additional pair of hands.
Hmmm.. just how do people manage grocery shopping with the pram? i went into ntuc and couldn’t figure out how to carry the stuff i wanted to buy and push the pram at the same time!
jzlyn
Pop it under the pram basket? Unless you are getting a ton of stuff.
cherieladieblogs
i thought of that, but because the seat was adjusted down to the lying position, it totally blocked off the basket. couldn’t even squeeze a pkt of tissue through! i blame the pram design. Heh.
jzlyn
Ah you are using a maclaren? It’s a shit design. I regretted buying it as a 2nd pram, should have bought a Combi as our travel pram.
cherieladieblogs
yeah. using a maclaren techno xt. which one did you buy?
jzlyn
Quest. It’s our travel pram since the Inglesina is way to heavy to be lugged around airports / hotels, etc.
cherieladieblogs
the quest is quite a popular model. what do you not like about it?
jzlyn
Oh let me count the ways…
– canopy way too small
– small basket
– hard to excess
– only fwd facing
pishako
not sure if u can sell off the strollers that u dun like.
i use peg perego si, can push around n control direction w 1 hand. it’s 7kg.. i think it’s light in a way..
jzlyn
Yup it is lighter than what we have but I wanted something less than 6kg. The quest was an impulse buy by the husband. If I can do it over I’d get a combo well comfort (4.2kg).
pishako
i hold basket w 1 hand and pushed stroller w 1 hand.
that is how i attempted shopping w zach last time. but stroller must be light and sturdy. and smooth to manuveor.
cherieladieblogs
heh. my stroller is rather light (5.5kg), so it’s easy to manuveor with one hand.. but because i bought some stuff before i went grocery shopping that was hanging at the handles and it felt like it was going to topple (with my jerry in it!), hence i decided not to risk having another basket in my hand in the super crowded amk ntuc.
so far, no complaints with my stroller yet except maybe its too light but i think when my jerry puts on more weight, it will work out fine!

When Preston was much younger, i’ll purposely use the Bjorn AND use the pram as the “trolley”.
Now he’s older, we use the pram in the upright position & use the basket. When going home, we try our best to stuff things in the basket below and hang plastic bags from the handles. :p
cherieladieblogs
heh. i don’t think i’ll use the pram as the trolley (ok, depending on what it is) because i am quite a cleanlines freak when it comes to the baby.
i wouldn’t even put my diaper bag on the seat because it has been to the floor! but that’s just me.
argh. if only i can use my too small pupsilk. argh. so much more convenient!
cherieladieblogs
wah! i’m not that adventurous yet. i went out with my mum and the pram. My house don’t have the direct lift so i needed someone to carry the baby while i carry the pram downstairs!
till i master the courage to head out alone and am more confident, i would consider raffles place! but lunch is very crowded everywhere there!
