First Day At Kinderland

2011-05-17T13:10:00.001+08:00

16 May 2011 marks an important day in my life...my first day in school. I did not cry till I woke up and discovered that my parents are not by my side. Teachers were there to calm me down and I was able to take my tea-break. When I saw Fat Daddy, I cried and cried to go home.....

My folks invited the Hainanese Clan over for a small lunch gathering today. Simple affair and since Aunty Ivy and my Fat Daddy birthdays are coming up, my mummy ordered cupcakes to celebrate (more like the cupcakes were for the other tods and me keke)!

Lastly, thank you all for the gift!

It's been a while

2010-05-26T08:50:00.002+08:00

Sorry folks. I have been busy (and damn tired) and Adele has been busy, being sick. Realised the last time I posted was in Nov 2009 haha...

Let me recall what has happened past half year... We got our keys to our new nest in Jan 2010 and shifted in for good last Fri. Poor Adele has fallen sick too past few days. Running a fever and vomitting for the past 3 days. She threw up all over me last night after we fed her her medicine. And Fat Daddy had to do all the cleaning up. That's how tiring it is to stay on our own but well, its rewarding and we are settling in well... We had a hard time settling a whining sick kid who really tests our patience. The PD concluded that she most probably caught a virus and takes a longer time to recover since she inherited the sensitive airway from her folks. Just hope she gets well fast...

And yay, two of my friends (S & L) are expecting their #2 so congrats to them and a smooth journey ahead towards EDD!

GUG Trial Class

2010-01-16T20:07:00.005+08:00

Fat Daddy and Mommy brought me for playgroup at GUG United Square on Friday. Its a trial class for babies from 8 to 18 months. However, I was busy helping to put the chairs in place rather than listening attentively to the teachers :p

Out of 5 of us babies in the class, I was the worst student, kept walking around the classroom for that 1.5hr! At the end of the class, my Mommy decided to put on hold my enrolment since I can't sit still. While Fat Daddy thought is the class too elementary for me..? Anyway, give me a break, folks! I'm still a 16mo toddler!

2010-01-03T11:18:00.006+08:00

Early in the morning, my folks brought me to Century Square Best Denki. 9:15am, none of the shops were opened and Mommy was 2nd in queue for the $2 Sandisk 4GB thumbdrive offer and Fat Daddy was pushing me around in preparation for my nap. I fell asleep in time and Fat Daddy was the 18th person in line since the offer was only for first 20 customers... =) While I was asleep, they bought a 26 Inch LCD for $288 on impulse too!

When I woke up, I was already with Alicia Jie Jie near Uncle Khai's house.

Alicia is teaching me how to touch your forehead with your toes...

Bet you can't do that, young lady!

Seems tough huh!

Let me try....

Bet you can't wear your own shoes!

Nevermind, I got Fat Daddy to wear for me...

Look Daddy, wanna see me do this without hands??

Swing swing swing!

Take a break before the next trick...

Its me playing sitting on your own water bottle!!! hahahaha....

Enjoying the really soft mattress!!

A walk to Paragon where Fat Daddy does what he does best... buy more CDs and Mommy does what she does best... think about what to buy and end up buying nothing :p

First walk to view the lightings

A tiring day yesterday... need to rest my little feet on Day 2 (been doing too many leg raises in my stroller)

Thoughts from Mommy Jan...

2009-11-23T14:54:00.002+08:00

I have finally stopped breastfeeding after a good whole 14.5 months!! Give myself a pat on the back eventhough its only partial breastfeeding… Well, I should say a part of me is unwilling to give up but the other part of me is like 'hey!, I finally have some own life from being a moo cow'! Anyway, supply has been running real low that it doesn't make economical sense to breastfeed anymore. But I am glad to say that I have done my best to give Adele BM for the longest period that I can sustain.

I have always said, motherhood is the most difficult job I will ever love. I would never choose to turn back the hands of time to the days when I was single or even married without children. However, I am certainly not too proud to admit the fact that becoming a mother is more challenging than I ever imagined. In fact, I have found myself in “maternal survival mode” many times since the birth of Adele.

Becoming a first time first-time parent (and, for some, managing the all too common side effects that result from pregnancy and parenthood) is often cause for seeking out different forms of support available to mothers. Mothers need this support, and they need to know where to find it. I created my own support system through research and networking. Perhaps the best form of advice is the type that comes from experience – from those who have formed a connection to the topic at hand.

Adele is a busy little girl nowadays – busy walking around the whole house! She grabs anything that is within her reach and eats it. Paper, tissue, hair (yes, my hair on the floor), u name it she eats it. Now that is what I call garbage in garbage out wahahah!

Some of My Nicer Shots

2009-11-22T21:30:00.005+08:00

Hopefully I will start eating normally again... Check out the photos taken today...

I think Adele can give Mommy a little hell sometimes :p

Thought from Mommy Jan...

2009-08-11T10:48:00.001+08:00

Was chatting with Jin and she made fun why I didn't post my 11 months thoughts on Saturday haha. Ok, is no access to the internet world a valid reason?! Anyway, fat daddy has not been able to upload pictures to blogspot for the past two weeks. So frustrating! Am trying to find a solution to it now.

One more month to Adele's 1st birthday. I'm in the midst of coordinating the stuffs and logistics... Food, cake, deco etc. Did I miss out anything?

I have also been breastfeeding her for 11 months. Wonder how did I lasted so long…? I duno too but I just did it hahaha. Supply is dropping like how the stock market crashes so I guess I should be stopping in the next few months to come…

Thoughts from Mommy Jan...

2009-07-08T15:22:00.001+08:00

Amist my damn busy day at work, Jin reminded me that Adele turned 10mths old today! Gosh, how could it slipped my mind when I always remember faithfully but this mth is exception haha… Result of too much workload! BAH!

She hasn't sprout her first tooth but there is this tiny white thingy which I think should be out soon. Wonder why her teething is so delayed compared to other peer babies but well, each baby's development is different I guess…

She's becoming naughtier by the day too! She's also developing a mind of her own, which we have noticed when she protests being strapped in her throne aka car seat!!

After 2 weeks of flu and twice visits to GP, my folks decided to bring me to PD Dr Ong EK this morning. I gave my mommy hell last night. Kept whining and crying coz I can't breathe well while lying down and I don't know how to blow my mucus. So mommy had to carry me in a craddling position or put my head on her shoulders so that I can sleep on her. My poor mommy probably like caught only 10 winks last night and she still had to go back to work today after sending me home from the clinic.

Dr Ong said I caught a Strain A virus and while on the road to recovery, I caught the virus again. So he advised no more 'gai gais' for me this weekend and I shall be homebounded at my Yishun grans' place...

Hope I can quickly recover over the weekend...
