• catching his first smile of the day..

    I find it a joy to wake up in the morning, lay in bed and observe jerry till he rouses from his sleep.. and usually the moment our eyes meet…   he smiles.   such precious moments.   this morning, he climbed out of my bed himself, pulled out the water bottle from my bag, sat down and starting patting it like a drum, entertaining himself.   moments later, he went back to my bag and fished out something else. my fruitella bar of sweets. my cheeky little fellow.. and no, you ain’t eating one of those.   am not feeling very well these couple of days, and as a…

  • up to some mischief.

    this morning, he woke up, jumped on the bed, and went…’neh neh! neh neh! neh neh!’ while pointing at the empty bottle from the night before.    and then when I yawned and covered my mouth, he imitated me, with the full sound effects, action and all!   right now, he’s snatching the mop from my mum so that he can mop the floor.   scaling new heights with his toy story car.. sigh. I cant keep.up.with him! super active. Posted via LiveJournal app for Android.

  • childless tonight.

    missing my little bundle of joy. my baby frolicking around my granduncle’s shop in jb   my baby is away in Malaysia for a family wedding for the weekend and won’t be back till tomorrow. we came back this afternoon for a friend’s wedding and baby stayed with my mum since there’ll be no one around when we go work tomorrow morning.   I thought we’ll enjoy the alone couple time much, but I find myself missing jerry a lot. it didn’t help where we had a 2.5yo sitting with us at the wedding tonight.   ah.. separation anxiety. I thought I was pretty cool with it, but looks like…

  • its a snake!

    its my first visit at the gynae today. hubby wasn't with me because he couldnt make it and to fit his schedule and the doc's would mean I can only see the gynae next month. I couldnt wait so I came alone. here's my little bean. 6 weeks, with a tiny heartbeat, and a valentine's day present with edd 14 Feb. 4 days late of being a dragon baby. oh wells. man. I thought I could handle the visit myself but second time round is as nerve wrecking as the first. I freaked out when doc was trying to get a scan and couldn't see any. then he found it…

  • heartpain.

    got home and found my baby with a busted upper lip. ouch.       my heart is bleeding!       apparently he fell from the sofa and landed face down onto the hard marble floor. sigh. does anyone know where I can buy padded helmets for babies? even my pd asked me to go custom make one for jerry because she saw for herself.. how hyper this kid is!       I don’t know how many more of these injuries my heart can withstand further. its so painful to see..   Posted via LiveJournal app for Android.

  • the law of imitation.

    the law of imitation says do whatever you want your kid to follow.   tonight, I wanted to brush his teeth but he didn’t allow me.. I end up holding a toothbrush myself and got him to anyhow scrub his teeth with his toothbrush. except that when it comes to an super active baby, he was running all over with the toothbrush, I was pretty freaked out that he might fall and injure his throat! other than that, he went on with the toothbrush for the longest time, both my mum and me couldnt pry the toothbrush away without a major meltdown.   sigh.   I’m pretty amazed and impressed…

  • a date with Dr. Brady Barr.

    pardon the radio silence on the blog front for the past week. mummy me has been struggling with a full time job (with long hours) and a sick baby with an intense medication schedule and clocking in no more than 4hrs sleep daily. daddy wasn’t around all week but I’m glad to report I’m out in the sunshine now. baby is better (but still on medication), daddy is back and I spent an entire day sleeping away over the weekend so all is good..   except, maybe its my turn to fall sick cos I have been sneezing and sniffing non stop since morning. bah.   nonetheless, we had a…

  • hands free, fuss free. I like.

    good morning. at 430am in the morning, here’s what I have been up to all week. nebulizing my kid.   of cos, it hasn’t been so smooth sailing every single time but I have been much blessed that jerry doesnt struggle against it at all. even when he’s awake.. he’ll sit and stare and try get comfortable. the most difficult is when he is actively awake and move around much. else its been pretty easy and it gets better with experience.   now you know why I have been looking like a panda and very sleep deprived.   next up, getting that cough and runny nose medication down his throat!…

  • 3 times to get it right.

    having been there, done that for being pregnant, going through the entire journey and child birth, I still get the jitters when I head to the pharmacies to grab a test kit. my first time round, I think I bought a mid range test kit and tested positive on my first trial. so I figured, I just grab any house brand! my period was due the last week of the month and when it was 31 May, I figured.. I could be preggers, hence the trip to grab a test kit. well.. I wasn't. I had always wanted three kids. but Der only wanted one so I was a little…
