Parents Teachers Meeting for Jerry.
Parents teachers meeting or teachers parents meeting? I can never ever remember which is which… but i guess it doesnt matter anyway. You guys know what i am talking about right? Towards the very end of last year.. Der & me went for our second PTM. Well, what we heard isnt surprising – he has a very comprehensive vocabulary for his age, can understand and speak most of what the teachers and everyone else is saying, but have a issue with following instructions (HA!) and routines. his gross and fine motor skills are shining through as well and he loves to play with wooden blocks and puzzles , but i…

Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Last night was one of those nights.. Where both der and me were frigging tired but we had a baby who wanted nothing but attention from us. OMG. Don’t you just. Hate. Moments. Like. This. Like you are on the brink of losing your sanity, but can’t do anything much about it. The baby doesn’t want milk, doesn’t want sleep and all he wants is to be out of the cot and cuddle. I couldn’t take it anymore and took out the ipad, and had phonics on loop for the kid. In the dark. And ensuring that there is way enough safe distance between the kid and the light source……

Funny conversations with the husband #6 and #7
Conversations with the husband #6 Honestly, I don’t really know if the conversations are funny, or irritating and totally a pain in the arse but I choose to see the humour side of things because this is one person that I need to spend the rest of my life with, and my mantra is all about living and being happy so I process everything with a pinch of salt. The husband was irritating the hell outta me earlier and I was on the brink of exploding and trying scheme against him when I suddenly had a *light bulb moment* C: stop irritating me, else I’ll go back home, take your…

Things Jerry Says #1
The kid has been sprouting sentences and arguments like an adult and he surprises me every single day. Like… woah! Where did he learn that from? and since its a brand new year and a brand new blog, i am going to chronicle his funny conversations in numeric order. I know i posted some before previously, but i guess i’ll start counting somewhere. Over the holiday, before we headed out for lunch.. der went to his bonnet and did some engine servicing. Jerry & Jerome was both strapped in the car before der went on to do his stuff. Jerry: Why isnt the car moving and where is papa? Me:…
