Sisterly Love

Joy really love Mindy alot. This is what happen last nite:

Mindy is playing with Joy by slapping her face (quite hard)
Me: Mindy, NO. Cannot beat jie jie
Joy: Mummy no, she never beat me. She is playing with me

Mindy is playing with Joy by pulling her hair
Me: Mindy, NO. Cannot pull jie jie hair. Jie Jie pain pain.
Joy: Mummy, no. Mindy is playing with me.

Its so heart warming to see them so close to each other & enjoying each other company.

Joy Bday Celebration at CC

This boy has the same birth date as Joy.


Joy's friend & teacher singing the birthday song to her. She still does not talk in school :(



Joy birthday cake. Quite disappointed with the appearance as I expect lighter pink colour cream at the surface of the cake instead of pink chocolate coating. Nontheless, everyone finishes the 2 kg cake & 1 teacher even ask where we got the cake from. Some children had 2 servings as they like the marshmallow.

Hope that she will open her 'golden mouth' soon. Just wanna tell her that everybody love her & hope she will start to open up & warm up to people soon.

Happy 4th Birthday To My Firstborn, Joy

Today is Joy birthday & celebration has started since Sunday at my mum place with a simple cake cutting session. All the children gather to sing the birthday song (Chinese & English version) & blow the candles & my parents were very happy to have all the grand children around.

Joy, Mummy wishes you good health & happiness always. I love you!

Myanmar Maid. NO.NO.NO!!!

My Indonesian maid has left us for 2 plus months & we have gotten a Myanmar maid to replace her.

Instead of lessen my burden, she made me more busy. Have to spot check her every now & then. Cant understand simple English. I can tolerate most of the silly & stupid mistakes that she makes unless it compromise my children cleanliness & well being!!

Last Sat, found out that she did not switch on Mindy's steriliser to sterilise the bottles after numerous reminders from the 1st day she started work! So, I reminded her not to do it again. However, she repeat the mistake on Sun again & I gave her a stern & final warning not to let me catch her again. But tonight, she STILL DID IT AGAIN!!!!! So I told her firmly that I'm going to deduct S$20 from her pay each time she forget.

To some of u, it may seem like a small issue but not to me. Its because Mindy is having flu, fever & she has pooed 3 times today (which is not normal). So is it because of her negligence that cause Mindy to fall ill?? Mindy is just 9 months old!!!!

Many people (Me, MIL, my mum)have try to convince hubby to change maid several times but he is real stubborn!! The reason of him not changing is because her pay is cheap ($340 per mth) & we only service her 2 mths loan. FYI, my mil also cant stand the maid at times, always says that she is silly, very slow, rough with kids, dunno how to coax kids etc etc etc... (the list is never ending). My 2 elder kids does not like her either.

I think I will go crazy if I am stuck with this maid for 2 years. Can anyone HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!

End of Breastfeeding Journey

Have finally stopped breastfeeding after I fall seriously ill for the past few months due to lack of sleep.

Having painful engorgement even though i took the medication (Dostinex) to ease it. It cost a hefty S$40 for 2 tiny tablets. Heart pain. Silly me still express out the BM as i cannot stand the pain.

Hope Mindy has benefitted from drinking breastmilk during her 9 months of life.

Mummy love u alot & hope that u grow up to a healthy & happy gal.

Children

Joy feels shy in front of the camera. Thats why she has that 'look' on her.

These photos consist of all the children by me, my brother & my cousin (Kiat Kiat). Mindy was not inside as dun feel safe leaving her 'alone' with her jie jie for the photo shoot. It was taken during the CNY. Like it very much. It also reflects that we have 'matured'. Still remember the time we played together during kampong days & now we have become parent liao. How time flies....

Updates

Its been a long time since I update my blog. Told myself must update regularly as my gals are growing up very fast & I want to jot down their development so that me & hubby can reminisce when we grow old.

Quick Update
Mindy is 8 mths plus now (will upload the latest photos soon) & will wean her off breast milk soon.
Zoey is the leader among the 3 sisters. She has the leadership quality in her.
Joy is the temperamental one. Her art work is quite good. Thinking of sending her to art classes.
