We are going to take the MRT again!!

Later I be bringing Justin to Bishan for a secondary school gathering.... kinda scary cos this will be the first time I be bringing him to take the train for such a long distAance. Last week i manage to bring him on the train from Redhill to clementi. But that was a short distance and he was sleepig throughout the journey.

Hmm.. have to pray that he don't make too much noise manz... cos later the train will be so packed cos its the peak hours.....oh manz.... wish me all the best!!

Stubborness or Determination?

For the past one week, feeding Justin has been one of the toughest mission everyday. It has far overtaken the tireness of trying to put him to bed, or even waking up in the middle of the night to feed this little darling. Probably I have already gotten used to those.

But for the past one week, it is the most terrible thing whenever we need to feed him.. reason being this little one will cry so hard and until so ke lian, lliterally almost like he is being child abused. Haiz... see already also heart pain.

But I have got no choice. If he does not learn to drink from the bottle during the day, what is going to happen when I go back to work in another month's time? Is he going to starve himself and wait till I am back from work?

~Sigh~

So no choice..... no matter how much he cry, I have to harden my heart and try to get him to drink his milk. And naturally, the quantity that he drink is significantly lesser than the average baby of his age should be drinking.

Coaxing, begging, scolding, using a stern voice, bluffing, changing a different bottle, different teat.... we tried all ways and means just to get him to drink finish his milk. And the same cycle repeats itself every 3 hours. Tired.. tired... tired...

I keep telling myself, must have patience... but some times, I really almost lost it.... thankfully, Gerald would remind me, he is just a baby. So got to be patient. So Patience.. patience... patience..... thats the word I keep telling myself.

Sometimes, i really wonder, is this a good trait or a bad one that need to be changed. Is he just being stubborn or simply showing his determination? If he is that determined in everything that he is going to do when he grows up, I believe he is definitely going to achieve his goals in life. But if he just being stubborn... it means its going to be a tough time to teach him when he grows up.

God...i hope this training will end soon, so that I can move on to let him try formula milk. I can foresee an even tougher war with my son ahead. ~LOUD SIGH~

The baby in the morning

This week, I discovered that Justin likes to smile a lot especially in the morning.. he is most cheerful and playful in the mornin... just after he is fully awake.. he is so playful and smiles at the slightest coo-oo that he / we make to him.

(Oh.. i love that smile! Kekeke.. Ok i know i am biased -,-)

Now the morning routine is quite standard. He wakes up at around 8am. Will play a while on his bed (probably only 10 mins) before he calls for attention. Once we pick him up, he be all smilely and cheerful as long as we engage a conversation with him (hmm... does this signify he is going to be a talkative boy next time? ) This is the best time to talk and play with him, because he will be in the best of mood. Haha.

And after a while, he will call for his milk. After drinking, most of the time, he will doze off into his lala land again and probably nap for another 30-45 mins.

Its so fun to discover his new patterns and developments every week... Every week, there is something new about him. Now he is at the stage where he can understand what we say to him. Sometimes, he will even respond by his "erm, eh, haizzz"... haha... all the funny sounds that he made.

Tada!!

Finally, I went to chop off my hair this afternoon.

The lady boss asked me when was the last time i trimed... hmm... i was surprised too..... think it was like 7-8 months ago?? Keke... no wonder its in a mess

I wanted something that make me look fresher.... cos motherhood really makes me age pretty fast (apart from audit, i think the next occupation that makes a woman age fast is MOTHERHOOD! ) So after a 10 min discussion with the lady boss, we decided to cut off the messy bush. Ok.. not exactly very short lah... cos i do not have the courage to cut it way short. But at least, now my hair has a more definited shape (i hope its neater too).. and it definitely feels less heavy... think i cut at least like 4 inches away? Had wanted to do rebonding, but the hair salon lady boss told me that my hair will start to drop when i reach the 4th month after i give birth. So considering that, i thought better don't waste my money to rebond now and 1.5 mths later, the hair dropped liaoz.. sure heart pain.... Haha.. so decided to just add some colors to my hair. Since CNY is coming, shall add some red to my hair....

Ok, looks like the red stripes aren't that obvious.. hopefully it will look better a week later bah....

What should I do to my hair??

So fast, today is already the 5th day of 2010. Frankly speaking, there are so many things to be done in this new year. I can already foresee myself being so busy this year with many different things.

And one thing i need to do this week: I need to do something to my hair!! Because its becoming like a big messy bush that i cannot take it anymore!! Grrrr

Deciding should I rebond, or should I color and highlight?

How much should I cut?

Should I cut my fringe?

I also don't have any answers for now...

see how when I land myself in the hair salon and let nature takes its course bah.....

I really badly need a haircut!!

Welcome 2010

This year, we usher in 2010 in a 7-star hotel, St Regis.

We booked a suite and 9 adults and 3 kids were in there.

Needless to say, you can imagine how beautiful and big the room was, and of cos, the service provided that make the hotel different from other hotels (and of cos, to justify why it is a 7-star hotel, isn't it?). I did not take much photos of the room this time round, because most of the time, i was taking care of Justin and carrying him.. so i shall wait for the professional photographer to send us the photos to upload. Kekekeke.

Apart from the room itself, what is worth mentioning is definitely the fellowship!!! U guys are simply awesome people! Was so fun, from the time we check in, to Modesto's for dinner, strolling down orchard road and enjoying the excitement in the air as the clock tick closer to mid-night, back to the room playing card games (twisting the objective of the game to make it 5 times more exciting) and how everyone try to find a spot to sleep (some on the bed, some on the floor, some on the sofa, some under blankets, some under towel, some in bath robes!!! Haha)

In summary, it was a tremendous way to cross over from the last day of 2009 and stepping into a new year 2010!! How you end will determine how you begin, isn't it? =)

And look at the 3 cutest babies and kid (pardon the bad resolution, as i only had time to grab my phone to take the picture, as camera was too far away)

Cute right?? I love this photo!! =D
