The sweetest thing D says

This morning, okie make it afternoon as we dun wake in the morn.

We woke and I was lazing in bed with the kids when D started.

D: "Mummy, your birthday over already?"
Me: "Yes darling, over already. Remember we blow the candles already?"
D: "Mummy did you get a birthday present?"
Me: After pondering and realise I really didn't get a present on my bday.
"No darling, I didn't get any present."
D: "Next time I buy a present for you okie? But you must be a good girl okie?"
Me: "Okie, thank you darling. I'll be a good girl"
D: "But I don't have any money..............because I am Damien. I don't have any money."
Me: "Then how??"
D: "Papa have money. I ask Papa to buy a present for you okie?"

Hehehe see.........how sweet my little boy is when he is in the mood.

I ROAR!!!!

Kids say the darnest things!!!

I really really agree but it depends on what your kid has read or heard.

Damien's been always running away from us when he sees stuff that interest him. So what I always do when he doesn't respond to me is to 'hide from him'. I wanna see what he will do and how long it takes to realise that we are not with him. Actually I want him to learn to see where we are and seek permission before he runs off........but no such luck so far.

This day we were at J8 and as usual, the moment D spots the mentos machine, he runs over without a care for us. We stood at the entrance and waited for him as there was a good crowd and I didn't wanna lose sight of him while still be able to be partly hidden by the crowd.
There was an old lady n 2 of her grandkids at the machine too and when D realised that he couldn't find us, I saw him talk to the old lady. N I really mean it, D talk to the old lady who I must say I regard as a VERY mean old lady.
Becos as ppl who have kids or grandkids for the matter, when you know a little kid is lost and he talks to you, what would you do?? I for 1 would help the kid look around and keep him with me till his parents come or pass him to someone responsible.
The old lady?? She would rather not talk to D at all and I saw her lips move, not sure if she was even replying him but she continued looking at the candy machine. Okie enough abt unkind ppl.

Then D spotted me when I called for him and he ran over. Know what he proudly told me???
" Mummy, I cannot find you just now and i ROAR!!"
"You did WHAT??" I asked, hoping I heard wrongly.
"I ROAR, becos I cannot find you." smiling proudly.

I looked for a book in the library few mths ago to find a book. Hoping it would make D worried abt getting lost and what he should do in any case it happened to him, since he has started his disappearing acts.
Well call me lazy cos once I found the book titled "I'm LOST", I just took it and borrowed it.

And when we read through the book at home, it was about a little bear who got lost when he wondered from home. And what did the bear do to get back home??
He ROARED.............and so did my Little D.
And the Mama bear roared back so little bear followed her roar home. But dun expect this Mama D to roar back to her Little D.

Scratch on my KateSpade!!!


Hw shall I start this without making it look like I'm grumbling about my hubby again?? Well truth be told..........I'm NOT exactly ANGRY with him. I'm more like............RESIGNED to it.


Why you would wonder. Let me tell you the ways...................................


I've got my new iPhone n so not used to the phone n have to keep monitoring the data connection as I didn't sign for a data plan. N of cos I dun want to have the shock of my life when the bill arrives or having to pay through my nose. So there I was trying so hard to see hw I can avoid n restrict the data connection. I would of cos understand very well if D accidentally pressed 1 of the buttons that would connect me to the internet. Totally accidental since he definately can't read.

But again of cos........having a hubby like mine who would predictably (I told you so) 'accidentally' touch something that connects to the internet. N as always he doesn't know what he touched n its always, "I didn't touch anything, I jus click n it brought me here!" n most innocantly. But doesn't that sound like something I should only hear from my 3 yr old??

Well so if the dad does things like that.............can I fault my 3 yr old of the same thing??

Most definately not of cos.


Okie here comes the meaty part. I had purposely gotten a Kate Spade pouch for my iPhone. Okie I'm not very sure if I got the iPhone jus so I can have the pouch or vice versa but lets skip that part to the "Love at 1st sight when I saw the pouch".

So I used it for my diamond before using it for my new phone. N today, we went for Rhys bday party. Hubby asked me to pass him my phone to keep as he's worried it will get lost so okie I passed it to him.

Then when we were going home, I was waiting for an sms from a friend (whom I did a good deed for by letting her have the iphone that was reserved for me). So I asked hubby to give me back my phone. N guess what!!!!!

There it was right infront n it was a BIG FAT SCRATCH!!!!! It must have been 1 of the keys. And I can only give a very very big SIGHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. He knows hw much it means to me n the pouch is still very new.......less then 1 mth old n THIS!!!!

Becos ................... that is the way he is. He is the man I met, fell in love with, married and had my kids with. I know what he is thinking of if he even twitches his eyebrow(yes I know but sometimes I jus ignore becos what he is thinking of is too rediculas).
And there is nothing I can do to change that............(trust me I've been trying for the pass 7 yrs)

What I can do is to try my best to make sure my son grows up more like me then his dad.

New Bag

I've got my new bag n No I am still angry I jus posted the angry post 1st before posted older stuff that doesn't make me angry.

Jus got my bag on Monday n I love it to bits. Was alittle bit worried that I will not like the bag alot as I didn't plan on getting that bag in the 1st place. But now I'm very very glad I did. Cos its really really NICE!!!......hehehe

Okie hubby paid for the bag with money his insurance gave him. But hmmmmm shouldn't he give me all his insurance payout for me to buy my dreambag instead??....hehehe
Now jus waiting for the right day to bring my bag out.....hehe

N see hw my son got the same taste as me?? He loves my bag too.(Oh yah but what does he not love?....hehe)

Angry Angry Angry

2 words to describe my feeling now. VERY ANGRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who am I angry with? Who else?? Of cos is my hubby lor.........sigh
I also dunno why I am so ming ku always angry with hubby. But he never fails to upset me n upset me n upset me until I am very angry. What can make me so angry you say?? Okie see if u will feel angry for me.

1) Jus now we were eating dinner, E on the bed behind us choking on her gerber puff. I was eating halfway so took the chance to see if hubby to respond at all he jus "Ehh" like as if she faking. But hello can hear that its real choke lor. Wait n wait until I BTH liao want to pat E. Hubby finally stretch his hand to pat her once twice n gone. While she still making the choking sound but hubby seems like done his job liao. So fine I took over n settle her.

2) Hubby saw a piece of nose shit in E's nose so want to pick it out of her. But as always,(she hates this so the sec she feels we wanna try something funny she will start screaming n crying) she was screaming n crying lor n I try to ignore lah cos I hate hubby to do that. Then E cry n scream until totally no sound kind(crying that bad)n still hubby pinning her down to try to pick out. I was angry of cos make her cry till like that so I smacked hubby n screamed at him. "Stop it lah, can't u hear her cry until no more sound liao" then he stopped n I picked E up to soothe her. Once up nearly stop crying, hubby(wants to make himself less guilty) snatched her away from me n so her crying continue. So I fed D until I BTH E's crying when hubby carry near, I took her over. N this time took quite awhile to make her stop.

3) E has been vomitting every night for 2 nights(except yest night cos I specifically told hubby, dun make her cry n vomit AGAIN). So today I fed her the porridge with spinach n she took 1 big bowl n still not stopping but I stopped cos worried she eat too much n vomit. Then jus now feed her med, was gonna take water for her but sounds like she choke on the med. So I pat her then wanna take water she choke again so I pat her again. N there was hubby sitting right in front of E n me n E's water was infront of him. He sat there, totally unaffected, cannot hear his daughter choking (ofcos he never hears anything). N E choke n choke till so jialat I dun dare to stop patting her at all(cos the med got a bad smell n guess she choked on it so very jialat). So I screamed at hubby "Can't u hear her choking?? Pass me her WATER!!!" N he passed me. E didn't want n cried so I carried her n continue patting. Who knows she pushed me n SPLAT. Vomitted all over me, both inside n outside my shirt also got alot of her porridge n some sticky phlegm.
Wah I was so angry lor there was all her porridge. If hubby didn't make her cry so badly, she might not have vomitted. Then now vomit liao her tummy sure empty right?

4) N then hw abt me??? Cos hubby already said he needs to go work at 9pm. N E vomited at abt 9pm, so he clean n changed her, while I clean myself. I tot since he needs to go at 9pm, now already pass 9pm so I will jus cleanup 1st let him go work n I will wait till I make the kids sleep before I bath. BUT BUT BUT........there he was playing with the kids on the bed until it was pass 9.40pm. N I angrily asked him "I tot u need to go at 9pm??" N he jus "Yah". Wah ANGRY ANOT!!! If he can wait why dun he let me go bath 1st?? Didn't he know that I jus got vomitted on by E???

5) Jus now when D said he was full (actually even before that too) I told hubby I will finis D's leftovers. Cos there was alot of rice n D had ate some popcorn on the way home so I dun expect D to finis the whole bento anyway. So hubby said he will cleanup D. He took a piece of wetwipe, clean n wipe the table(okie sad to say I already know what he was going to do, but I jus waited quietly to see if he will really do it) n threw the piece of wetwipe into D's remaining food. So I asked loudly, "Didn't I jus say I was going to finis it????" N he gave a loud "Aiyah" n proceed to slowly pick the piece of wetwipe out of the food. So I asked again, "U mean after u pick out the wet wipe I can still eat the food aah?" He said "No". Then????? Pickup the wetwipe for WHAT?????


So.......ANGRY ANGRY ANGRY ANGRY ANGRY. N I learnt something from TV. "Forgot" is very good to use. YES!! to my hubby, this is his favourite word. Everything FORGOT, FORGOT, FORGOT, didn't hear, didn't see.
Yes, I sometimes wonder why I married a deaf mute.

The terrible 2s??? Or what ever u call it

It is a nightmare. Something all parents never wish to face.

Jus now after dinner, D asked to fingerprint the new book I bought for him. So I asked him to sit in his high chair to do it. Then I asked him what the colors were n if could only do them if he knows the colors. Actually I'm still not very sure if he knows his colors or hw many he knows.
(out of topic, stupid crockroach, see him yest n today. n lost him again...arghh)
But I do know he knows some colors like red n green cos of traffic lights. So when we ask him the colors can see that he sort of not in the mood. Eyes on tv n keep repeating what we are asking him only. SO I told him he dunno the colors he cannot do finger print n cos its late already, jus come n sleep.
Then it started..............he jus started crying. Those crazy type of cry. I told hubby to jus go to work n leave him alone as I tot he would settle down soon after when he knows I'm not going to bother abt him. But NOOOOOOO, he didn't stop crying. He even cried louder n louder even after I warned him I would throw him outside the door if he continued crying.
Still crying, so I picked him out of the high chair n threw him outside the room door n closed it. Crying subsided, so I opened the door. He jus rushed back on the bed n hug his pillow. Okie I tot, that was it........but boy was I wrong. After a few sec of soft sound, he started crying AGAIN!! I warned him to stop but he didn't so off he go out the door again.
I know it is becos he is very tired n partly cos I refused to let him fingerprint. But I am a very stubborn person with not very good temper n patience .....so...........poor boy makes me even more fustrated when he doesn't stop crying. Doesn't help that E sometimes add to it by being tired n fussy too.
So on he went back to bed again n he started crying again so I asked him if he wanna go toilet or outside the door n he told me toilet. Okie so off he goes. N he even closed the door himself. So I let him be in there but he started screaming n screaming in between the crys. Called hubby who talked to him on the phone n it was worse cos he cried more. .........sigh
Only finally finally he started to really settle down. I told him he could only leave the toilet when I dun hear anymore sound from him. But the min he is on the bed he threaten to start crying again.......sigh
What is wrong with this boy man. Okie finally he falls asleep n jus now he woke n the sec he woke he starts crying again. OMG I'm going crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okie after I really finally manage to calm him n stop his crying totally, I talked to him. Of cos he say he is a naughty boy.(Same like in between sobs he keeps saying he dun want to cry anymore)
Hubby says he's going to pluck the xia liu leaves n wipe him all over when he comes back. (If he remembers that is) I jus cross fingers he remember n it works.
Trying day tml for sure.
