Thoughts from Mommy Jan...

I feel melancholic today... In fact its for the past couple of days... The inability to think positive combined with physical agitation, insomnia and decreased appetite... Today marks Adele's 1 month old which also marks the day of my confinement nanny, YuXia's departure. Fat Daddy and me had to bring Adele back to Yishun home to pray and we dropped YuXia off at Khatib MRT at the same time. Can't help but my tears just flowed non-stop like a spoilt dam in the car until YuXia had to comfort me to take it easy and things will work out well... Can you believe I sobbed for almost 30mins (wonder where got so much tears in me?!) until I had to text a few friends for a comfort listening ear and to divert my attention about YuXia's depart...

After praying, we went islandwide to send full month cakes to colleagues and run some errands, with Adele in tow of course. What a challenging first time experience! She started screaming in the car and I shoved my 'milk-factory-equipment' in for instant relief. Phew!, she fell asleep after filling her tummy with milk. We came home in the afternoon and shifted the baby cot to our room. Our lives will change starting tonight, with Adele's constant waking up and feeding pangs but we will perserve. Coz we want to be part of Adele's every development in life...
