Things at homefront and work has been real crazy for me, at least. Getting the year started with lots of activities going on at work, SKO, virtual learning, pipelines, business plans and what have you for a account manager is a rat race. Almost into the 2/3 completion of Q1 and hoping go start the year with good nos, has taken a toll on me. Constantly feeling the pressure and now seems to have the invisible Sun Wukong’s head ring around me, tightening with each breathe in or each bend of the neck to pick up stuffs. Terrible feeling…….

Tried to distress by baking and did a couple of baking projects. Praying the anxiety feeling goes away soon and good things awaits.

Grace had a sprained right foot on Tuesday night after jumping off the bed, following the monkey business of her brother. Got us so worried how to handle the injury. We monitored her and kept her away from school. Thank God that today she’s better and manage to walk and run even. Thus, concluded the very whiny, I cannot walk, I want to carry.” stage.

Hope you have a wonderful Friday to spend and enjoy the weekend!

ours were hot, humid and queer with fishing at Labrador Nature Reserve. Hot and humid, the usual of Singapore’s weather. Queer, with 2 sea urchin-like worms being caught. Disgusting enough for me, as my close friends would know, I freak out at the sight of worms!

The kids played hard, ball bouncing, sidewalk crayons coloring, poking, pinching the fish and seasnails caught by another family. It’s great afterall, spending the quality time with family on New Year Day.

NDP 2009, eventful and memorable.

Eventful as Grace chipped her front tooth off when she ran and fell down, face flat, hitting her mouth. Heart pain!!
She cried badly and the left tooth chipped in awkward ways that resulted in a very sharp pointed tooth. Need to send her to see the dentist soon.

We had quite a long wait at the Esplanade Theatre by the Bay. It was a good area where we were still able to watched the parade happenings and also catch the sea activities by the Navy and Air Force. It was Grace first NDP event and she was restless, sweaty. Despite her broken tooth, she ate quite a bit of tidbits, munching happily with her cousins. Here are some photos taken by my Olive Prince nephew and me.

More of the photoes can be view here

here’s a video of the finale fireworks

Time to rest, had a long day teaching my god daughter in card making. Fruitful and fun… hope this week pass by smoothly and yours too.

This year was spent with the kids and Ed. Usual of shopping, eating, shopping, eating….
Spent a fair bit but it was bargain purchases with MUJI sale, John Little Sale….seems like everywhere is on sale!
A big damage done the night before when i got the whole collection of Claudine Hellmuth’s acrylic paints…hahahaha

Anyway, I wanted to take a shot of us in May and here’s the latest.

I think I look so weird in this photo. Anyway, as long as the kids and Ed looks good and love the way Grace poses…so cool.

4 years of motherhood. So much to hope for, so much that I’ve went through with the kids. Especially for Grace who has gone through hernia surgery, bacterial infection leading to hospital stay. I would still say, it’s lot more joy than anything. As I watch the two of them grow in leaps and bounds, I wish time would stand still sometime for me to enjoy the stage they are at. Motherhood means to me:

.: cute winks from Grace .: Seth’s silly stories .: Grace’s calling, “mummy, mummy.” .: Seth’s learning swimming .: Grace starting to walk and then steady stroll .: Seth’s crying for toys, cars, Ben10, Lego .: Grace’s mucus running, vomits throwing .: Seth’s holding my hand .: Grace’s playing with my belly button .: Seth’s said, “I help you on the air-con ok?” while I am ironing .: Grace’s fetish for shoes .: Seth’s charming smile .: Grace’s cute little nose :.

So much of the things that gives me the experience of motherhood that nothing can trade off. Also, that I realise the effort, the love, the care that my mother has showered unto us, it’s all unconditional and makes you appreciate and needing the love even more.

Thank you Mom!! for being you, for being so wonderful! (Though you may not read my blog)

Happy mother’s day to all mama!

I did not manage to sleep much last night, effectively slept for about 2hrs? Woke up as early as 6+, weather was humid and hot with the rhythemic fan speed Ed has set as Grace’s unwell, I can probably die of heat stroke.

Anyway, I dragged them all from bed at 10 to 8am, clean up and we headed for McD breakfast. Thereafter, a ride at Sembawang Park. Seth has learnt how to cycle and wants to work him out a bit s that he has better stamina for swimming class.

Here are the shots taken this morning.
