good Monday ^^

good morning Monday :D am in the train be like a sandwich, squeeze in between 2 ppl in a 3 seated bench. so now am blogging with strong perfume aroma on my left and another don't know what smell at my right :p



my latest children pic ^0^



suddenly got extra one without pregnancy hehehe. btw, see my angel's panty? ^0^



from the pic, you would like royee likes baby the most, then angel, then Eva..



Eva not really bother about babies.. hmm wonder when she grows up she would have her baby or not >_<



anyway, just hoping my little man can be a good father and husband to his future family. I always lecture him to be a responsible and caring man.



^^

well, last night when I wanted to leave my mama's house, Eva was moody. she wanted me to stay. now I am stuck in the middle, one of the reason for my to stay in bkt31, I want to do housework and be with royee. then at the same time, helping my sis to take care her baby so she can rest. but I know my girls can really feel I have neglected them :(



angel can now smiling and looking at me when I am sleeping. how she miss me this weekend mummy hmmm...

have the plan of doing revision with royee from September. so he is more ready for the October final exam. been neglected his study.. besides, I want to clear all the activity books that I bought for him. to me, I don't really bother about my children academy result, but my limit is - not the last few classes. I want them to be middle or middle up. this is to show, they absorb at least half of the total knowledge that teacher sharing.


these 2 new mothers have shared their feeling - not easy to be a mummy aaaa.. ya true, once you become a mummy or guardian then you feel your life is a total change. you gonna be more alert and sensitive all about your children. milk price increase, milk powder is not safe, the price of the new theme park tickets, when is the school holiday... not only looking at our own children, we directly or indirectly tend to see what other ppl children doing and having to do a benchmarking to our children benefits..



jia you lo.. long ways to go. am everyday learning to be a better mum. always plan to have more activities to do with my bbb. but plan is plan, ad-hoc schedule always disturb my initial plan..



keeping faith everyday :)



happy Monday. a brand new week ahead!
----
below are something I wanted to do with my children.. but don't know when >_< day before angel again asking about their 2nd sewing project with mummy teacher :(

aloha Friday!

today am wearing GREEN, then fatty fatty like a green apple :D




miss my bbb. 2 with in law, 1 with my mama. my mama called me last night to chat with me, sharing the fun stories of royee boy. royee helps in my digo's restaurant too. I also called my girls, they told me they were eating maggie instant noodle at 10pm! children experience different things when they are away from mummy, this is good too. but cannot be too frequent, then we can't get our children back to the track we want them to be ^^




back to work in raya holiday, an alone cover for the work, have to prioritise TOP urgent work from the SUPER urgent work @_@ that is tiring. I don't drink coffee much, but yesterday I bought one to make myself stay awake for non stop incoming workssss... didn't go out for lunch too, it is pressured, but time pass very fast :)

lately, from raya holidays, I been not doing housework and cooking. laogong settled all in raya holidays. this is the comment I got from him, when I was lying on the bed 'you, failed on housework, 30% only, nope, not even 30 marks you get' wahh.. rest for few days only then my performance as a housewife dropped to below 30%. that including I brought children outing to kl and in law house. whatever it is, I continue to sleep, tired ma @_@




from my sis's blog, sharing her feeling on confinement month. because I don't do housework, so she do it. because I don't cook, so she has nothing much to eat. her wound and legs started aching.. hmm I feel guilty about this, last night I can't sleep well. this morning the same feeling is with me..

thinking back on my 2 confinements. for my 1st baby, my mama cook for me, then laogong pack foods for me when there is no food cooking. I take care my boy by my own too. my papa and mama play with the baby in day time. i express milk too, with manual pump. I wash I walk I bring baby see doctor. come to my twin girls, I need to taking care 3 babies at 1 go, coz only one year old gap.

when recalling all these memories and experience, the involvement is meaningful and warm. of course it is tiring, frustrated too when baby crying for nothing, the milk is too little after almost an hour expressing.. we can't buy all these moments when we are fully with our baby in the 1st precious month. day and night they are with us, we handle each of the cranky moment, we worried on each of the colic discomfort, we cherish on each of the nice poo poo..

we have many rules in confinement month, for Chinese. but all these rules shouldn't stop us from enjoying this valuable touch to everything about our new born. the great chance to force ourselves to be a responsible parents and exercising those nursing and parenting tips. tiredness is always come before we tasting the sweetness of the satisfaction fruits.




husband involvement is very important to ease wife burden. everyone is new as a parent. so father and mother should take role in taking care the baby. routine and schedule need to be adjusted to fit in the new born. changes are needed, so everyone can adapt to the change faster and with willingness. father's role is not helping the mother when helping hands needed, father needs to put the baby care as 1 of the schedule, and of course, taking care mother with full responsibility as she is wife of baby's father.




this weekend baby shyuan is fullmoon. hope everything gets better, so my sis can handle the baby well and have more sleep. in fact, once your are a mother, unless your baby is taking care by nanny for day and night, you gonna have no good quality sleeping hours till baby grows up >_< this gonna last for few years. baby sick or cranky you cannot sleep well, baby sleeping too quietly, you checking their breath too... so father should take turn to take care the baby, so the mother can let go the 24hours worry for few hours..




I thank to laogong always take the dawn shift to take care baby while doing his study and office work - baby sometime in rocker, in stroller, on sofa or in his cradle :)




happy Friday! ^^

hello Thursday!

if every working day the traffic is smooth like today, then i am more willing to go working happily ^0^ many people still be on leave for raya holidays, so less car on the road, the office is quiet too. however, the workload is not reduced @_@


me and baby shyuan. chubby chubby aaa. from the pic only I realise, my eye bags made me look older :( well, we have to accept the fact, baby grow up everyday, grow taller, fatter.. then of course we as adults grow older too.. hmmm..



she is smiling when I call her 'xin en aaa..' cute little one :)



we always disturb her sweet dream at slumberland when the time she supposes to be awake for milk or long hours sleeping.


this pic, you can see her open her tiny little eyes when she hears me snapping her pic then, continue sleeping :p



baby on mummy's tummy, I miss the days when I put my bbb on my body to feel the warm, to make them feel secured :)

my children are holidays in grandparents house. so I sleep alone these few nights. good night sleep, but still, never feel enough @_@ thanks to sis who surprised me with all the housework done last night, so I can eat and chat with her, then play with baby shyuan before I gone sleeping :)



of course, when sis is walking much and not resting enough, she feeling not well and aching here and there. I prepared her a pail of warm boiled_ginger_water to soak her tired feet, to warm the body too. I always do this especially when I stay up in the midnight to complete my sewing pieces :p



good transformation to see my sis is more responsible and matured to be a mummy to the little one. witness the growing of a human being. experience the effort and sacrifice of parents to treasure more on own parents and own self ^^



me too, children growing up day by day, I love myself more, coz I hope to stay longer with them, to share their happiness and sadness along the journey. I feel more for my parents, coz it this not easy to raise children in the way you want it to be.



children smiles pay off everything ^^



enjoy your Thursday ^^

raya break

continued from the previous post, this is the 2nd highlight in this year raya break ^^ we went back to in law house. in law house was full with relatives from the north and from the south :)

the raya holiday

long weekend is over @_@ after 4days of non working day, am now looking for another long weekend. for holiday, I always craving for more ^0^
the 2 highlights for this raya cuti are outing to the klcc bookfest and engagement of my bro in law and his gf :)



brunch at kl convention center. children are always excited @outing ^^



when you have more children, eating outside might be a headache - choices and expenses. 1 prefer fish, 1 want rice don't eat noodle, 1 non stop asking for noodle, 1 want spicy, 1 want vege.. order too many, end up parents to clear the plate. for expenses, rm10 for each, 5 of us gonna spend rm50. if you go for more luxury foods, then it is more costly. so, conclusion is, parents non stop working hard to maintain the cost of living :p



waiting for papa to buy entrance tickets. done with tickets, 'mummy, I want to go to the toilet' now royee always speaks English when he wants to go to the washroom :p so before we can start entering the book fest, we need to settle many things, including the safety briefing 'if you get lost, pls come back here, see this red sign? if not, pls ask any uncle or auntie to call mama. do you know mama's number?' 3 little birds speak out my number loudly.



1st stop is the children comic. my children now likes to read this comic. the purpose of angel and Eva to this book fest is to meet up with uncle you-li - the author. we queue up. long queue of children even before the uncle author was there.



finally, we got our autograph and photo shooting. angel and Eva are happy! now I understand how my officemate feels when she always company her daughters to follow those 'stars', parents want to see children 'smile of satisfaction' after few hours of queueing up? :)



well this is another author and fan meet up. this time is royee. he bought the comic book for story of our national badminton hero dato lee chong wei. this one, no queue needed. we can get the drawing and for 2 books - royee bought 2 books. we got other goodie bags with comic posters and files. now not easy to be a comic author I guess, especially for those are just entering the market.



just a colourful board, children can spend minutes there. 1st we snap pic for angel. then we left. walked few stalls away, then see Eva in her moody face 'I want to take photo too :(' aiyo, never tell, always keeps quiet only. so we went back to the board, to make sure no return, get royee snap the pic too. macam macam ada hmmm.



when we about to start 'papa and mama books shopping' we have Winnie local singer performing the songs of theresa tang in winnie's beautiful voice. my gals are fans of all sort of in stage performance. so they sitting together with adults for the free show. papa can look around peacefully. I bought the cd too, coz I like the songs :) 2 gals got the cd signed by Winnie.



when we are leaving the book fest, we saw this Astro booth. the guy approached me, said 'you fill up this form, then we will snap a photo of your child and email the photo to you' this is interesting!



so I fill up 3 forms. there are questionnaire on the children programmes, so 1 by 1 I read and ask bbb 'do you like this program?' wahh children know all the programmes, and can tell if they like it or not. in another word, they watch tv everyday! can even tell the showing time too hmmm...



after photo shooting, children got goodie bags from Astro - notepad, stickers, pencils.. can play word games there, then get extra stickers and don't know what ting ting tong tong.. I just sitting there and wait for them to finish.. tired!



the wall stickers on honda environmental friendly car. like this advertisement. cute! can you see angel showing 'the earth'? :)



last stop at KFC. fast food only serve to my children for special occasion or not other choices situation. this time, I let them choose the big apple doughnuts or KFC. then bbb said 'long time we dont eat doughnuts.. I want doughnuts.. pls..' ok, decided to go for the big apple. suddenly, laogong asked 'so, kfc or doughnuts? who wants to go or KFC raise up your hand' guess what? 3 of them jumping up high with both hands for KFC! till now, I still couldn't explain why they beg me so pitiful on the doughnuts at the 1st place @_@



this is the posing with the malay house at suria klcc. selamat hati raya aidilfitri ya :D

well, everything seems so fine for this outing with 3 little monsters. in fact we have heart dropping moments too. children got lost @_@ 1st were angels. before that I still seeing them sitting on the floor to read their pinky princess story books. then i walked and looked around. laogong came to me and said girls were missing. I told laogong confidently, gals were reading book there. later on, again laogong came to me, 'seriously I couldn't find them!' then I walked around.. and around.. and around @_@ I asked laogong to go out to the entrance red sign, what if the gals waiting there. then I again searching for the girls, larger area to a a hall.. still couldn't find. I called laogong to inform the organiser for announcement or anything that can be helped. in my heart, other than looking around and praying for the gals safety, holding the phone tightly.. I don't know what can I do actually.



then I got call. normally I don't answer call which I don't know who. but now, each call gives me hope! I picked up the call, a lady asking me 'have you found your daughter?' this question is scary.. you are holding my girls and like asking for something.. 'I haven't found them, are my girls with you?' the lady said yes 'where are you now?' so they were in hall3 information counter. well, from hall5 to hall3 I walked quickly. at the same time I called laogong. half way walking, 'how many girls are with her? 1 or 2?' hmmm...

when I reach the information counter, I heard 'mummy~~~' thank God, I found them! 1st thing they asked me 'where are my princess books? 1 choose 3 ma..' then started crying. come on, missing not crying, because of the books they cry @_@



we got royee missing too at suria klcc when I bought cakes. he went and played else where without informing me :( in my heart 'again?! why make us so tired?' hmmm..

lesson from this incident, what I can share is, make sure your children know your phone number by heart. then brief them not to be panic when they get lost, so people can easily help them when they get missing. parents don't get panic too. and don't play the blaming games - laogong looked at me 1 kind when girls missing :(



overall this is a gold outing for bbb. for parents, we save quiet a lot of money, coz no time to look for our own books. so I bought nothing for myself ^0^
