tAgGed, u R iT!

We are doing a TAG game started from Sri . How does it works? As Per Sri's description; "What is tagging? Basically, it's a set of questions given from a blogger to another and whoever get tagged, have to post their answers on their blog and tag someone else. Got it? I'm tagging anyone and everyone reading my blog. So, tag you are it!!!" 1. First Kiss? Honestly, the kiss was given when I am in Sec 2! OOOWW! So underaged, but at least we are not having sex!? How was it? Hmmm...sweet but not really fantastic. What you expect from a first time kisser? 2. First Date ? That'll be Sec 2 also! That's the first guy I really wanted to go on a romantic date with. I can't really recall where and what happened. Most probably, it's catching a movie. Typical pah-tor..... 3. First Time You Fell in Love Really in love.....when I was in Poly, then was 17 years old. Considering the kinda, you put your total self into the relationship and loose it all.....hiaz....

The Little Prince

The morning kick-started with a early wake up and I am excited. Why? Eh, cause my moodicare clock will arrive today!! Yipee! Just wanna have a feel of how the little thing looks and operates. I think it looks cool on the Net. Here's mine. It's really a nice white cube clock. I love it for its room temperature readings, displaying of day and date. Of course not forgetting, the illuminations looks great! It is now sitting besides my MoS, illuminating away with moods. (**,) I love it too, as it can be used as a stimulating moods for great...... you go think about it. It's a good buy for my case as I stumble upon it by chance. Through the above link. Olive Tree asked why the sudden of getting the clock. Hiaz. To add on to my gadget collections lor. Yes, the little prince. It's again a rant post. I kinda ran out of food and idea when coming to Seth's solid foods sessions. The slow cooker porridge making was a flop. We've got too little pork ribs for stewing the soup

What have I been doing?

Yes, I've been really busy. How did all these started, the digi SB, the addiction, the hunger for more ideas and all this equivalent to more time spent in front of my lappy. (I shall give my lappy a name....Let's just call it MoS) How does it sound? Aiya, anyway, it's my lappy, how I wanna name it, my prerogative. BB Seth was doing CIO training for more than a week already. He is still crying in the nights, we kinda of give up letting him cry in the wee hours and I continue to give him 1-2 times feeds. SO much of crying, that his double eyelids for his left eye popped out already. Poor guy. The routine now is, he'll cry a bit till he dozed off at 9-9.30pm. So, we'll have free time to do what we need to. (chores seems to be the utmost priority) However, I've been such an addiction to the board and SB(Scrap-booking) , I didn't do much and poor Olive Tree got to do it. Anyway, I did sweeping and mopping yesterday and have contributed to the house chores. (**,)

I am addicted!!

This is outrageous! I am supposed, yeah, suppose to blog about the past days happenings. However, the time that is free, I laid my hands on this ! URRGH! I can work and work on the LO that I forget about time, toilet, shit and sleep..... Technorati Tags: Digital Scrapbooking , Mommy's rants , seth

hAppy bIRthDay, Olive Tree!

17th Jan, is Olive Tree's birthday. He wasn't on leave so the day was spent as normal till he is back from his work. During the day, I was busy with marking a birthday card for him, of course, with BB Seth asleep. Else, I can't do anything much. Thank God that BB Seth was sleeping well in the day. He napped for 2-3 hrs for 2 rounds. The good thing about him is that he is able to get to sleep by himself quite easily with a feel whines these days. (After ferberizing) When BB Seth woke up at 3 plus, we went to Sun Plaza and got a Birthday Cake for Olive Tree. It's blessed that after we stepped into the house, it started to rain. Hee....good discernment that I did not shop around Sun Plaza for long. We went for dinner at Jack's Place when Olive Tree is back. I can fully understand that he wanna spend his birthday with his darling boy. Therefore, we didn't arrange any meet up with our friends to celebrate Olive Tree's birthday. After dinner, we came back home, se

Who Says Mummy becomes dumber?

Read from an article, "During pregnancy, learning and memory skills improve dramatically, say researchers, reversing the popular myth that it is a time of dumbing down. Key brain areas also alter in size; changes that can persist for decades. Far from transforming mothers into weakened emotional wrecks who lose car keys and drop in IQ, it turns out having children makes them cleverer. It's just hard to spot thanks to all that lost sleep." Read about it . Isn't it amazing to be cleverer by just giving birth. HA! I thought somehow, after giving birth, mothers tends to get absent minded. Or purely we try to shut our minds off from the things around us. Hmmm..... So that we concentrate on our darlings. Talking about our darlings, BB Seth was erratic last night. Hiaz. I put him to bed at 9.30pm. Did the usual routine and he slept, after Olive Tree went in to pat him. Since Olive Tree said his darling boy will sleep after the pat. Ok lor, I let him be. Who knows, at 10.30pm

3rd Day into CIO

I can tell you, it's crying and heartache based on my personal experience on CIO. Hiaz. I cried of course. Hearing my BB Seth cried for almost 45 minutes on the first day CIO is being introduced. Ok, I am using, the altered FERBERIZING method . Chronological events recorded: 12th Jan 2006 (1st day of FERBERIZING) 10.45pm - Put BB Seth on bed, read him his Lullaby and Goodnight Cloth Book, Sang him his routine lullabies. Greeted him good night and left the room. 11.06pm - Starts of his cries. 11.15pm - I went in and pat him, soothed him and coaxed him to sleep. He struggles and refused. I picked him up and hugged him 11.30pm - Olive Tree went in to do as I did previously. We prayed in the other room, I cried and so so heartache. 11.35pm - BB Seth was too tired and slept half way on bed and baby cot. (His cot is adjoined to our bed) 1.00am - BB Seth woke up crying again. 1.15am - I coaxed him back to sleep. 3.00am - He woke up cried again, I breast-fed him a little and then unlatched

CIO==Cry It OUT

Can I try it again tonight? URRGHH!! Though it's really driving me nuts and also very heartache to see BB Seth to Cry till the cows come home, I have to at least do it, I mean both Olive Tree and me. It's really for the better so that Seth can sleep throughout the nights. But for selfish reason too, that I wanna a good night's rest. Recently, he has been waking up so ever often that it's draining, totally. What took place last night: Olive Tree patting BB Seth to sleep, but BB Seth's crying for mummy. Mummy doing chores to get her mind off the crying. In fact, Mummy had breast-fed BB Seth. Olive Tree keeps patting and carrying BB Seth, in the wrong positions anyway, upright? How to sleep upright? (''_) Olive Tree said, "Nurse him lah! He always nurse before sleep." Mummy said, "I have to let him sleep by himself without nursing. The nights are full of nursing when BB Seth's wakes up!" Olive Tree, "Then pray about it." Mummy

He called Mummy!

It wasn't my imagination and I have confirmed it with Olive Tree, BB Seth called me Mummy this morning, in the wee hours when he was crying for me to nurse him. Somehow, it was an erratical sleep pattern that he was in as he keeps waking up at every 1-2hrs! Gosh! I am beat! Thank God, we turned in really early at 9pm, as Olive Tree and I went for a DnD on Friday night and returned home at midnight. So, we did not rest well and I had to teach on Saturday morning till afternoon. I am totally bushed after my 4 classes (Going to tahan for another 9 weeks!!!) The feeling of hearing your our child calling you mummy is indescribable. You have to personally experience it then you'll know. So now, whenever BB Seth cries for me, I'll gladly pick him up and show my gleaming face, haha!! Cos I am called, "Mummy" (**,) Watch the Dinner & Dance event I've went over here Technorati Tags: BlessedSeth

My Olive Tree

I was in the shower, hahaha!! Why do I laugh? Because while bathing, I thought of Olive Tree. (**,) I was thinking what are the sweetest things that Olive Tree has done for me during our courtship, marriage. Ok, some may think that my Olive Tree is a down-to-earth, Mr Good Man, more action less talk type. Indeed he is. He isn't a conversationalist, not witty and soft spoken but he is a wonderful husband to me. Some of the sweet things that I recalled he has done for me: 1. Pick me up and send me back home during Poly days without fail, rain or shine. 2. Special cards/handicrafts made for me (So many that I have stored some away in boxes already) 3. After marriage, he still does the sweet little things for me when we were in courtship. 4. He make sure my water bottle are filled when we go out. 5. He emptied my little dustbin when it's so full on the vanity, everytime!! 6. He makes the bed. 7. Hold my hands to sleep. 8. Massage for me, at times. 9. Say I am beautiful. 10.Most imp

BB Seth in his Seats

Isn't our little Mighty Champion blessed to have so many chairs to sit in?? We (my generation) never have such luxury. Either in bamboo chair (for those more fortunate) or in a red pail when we can fit in.... Technorati Tags: BlessedSeth , Mighty Champion

Ushering in the New Year

Having been through 2005 with great adventure, like giving birth to BB Seth. (hmmm...was telling Olive Tree that was the biggest accomplishment I had for 2005) I was being kinda moody though after New Year's Eve party at Derick & Jas's. Just full of bad thoughts and such. Probably due to PMS. (Post Mense Syndrome in this case) We reached home at quarter to 11 and then got BB Seth to sleep. After which I bathed and sat in front of my lappy, browsing away. I was not even interested to watch the countdown telecast on TV. Olive Tree was watching TV and I guessed he dozed off on the couch and only woke up 15 mins passed 12 midnight and then came into play room, gave me a goodnight kiss, went to bed. (**,) I was really sullen even in the NEW YEAR DAY morning. Having to think of what 2006 entails for me. Of course, getting a full time job is a priority, a top priority. A job that I would love doing and performing at my best. Olive Tree sensed my moodiness and initiated a morning b
