Who Says Mummy becomes dumber?

My 2 cents worth


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, BB Seth woke up and cried. Thinking that he probably is hungry since I fed him at 8pm, I gave him his last feed. I don't know if it's a mistake to have breast fed him. Cause after that, he woke up every 1.5-2 hrs again!? Hiaz....I am draining. I had a running nose and getting on my nerves. Trying to have a good rest so the flu will get away. With BB Seth constant waking moments. I tak boleh tahan! I went to the other room and hide from him when he woke up at 1 am. He cried for 15-20 minutes then fell asleep with Olive Tree patting again.

He's very whining today. Whole day whine here and there. URRRGH! But still, he is our darling boy. I fed him 2 meals today. First meal being unsuccessful as he refused the brown rice cooked with soup made from carrots and potatoes. Actually the taste wasn't as bad. I think he dislikes the texture of the brown rice.
Second meal was his favourite, pumpkin. He finished it instantly, though with tiredness in him. Makes me happy.


Cheeky boy

Updates....more updates

D-day for IRAS e-Filing! I am such an 11th hour person, that I manage to e-file my tax return last night. Anyway, I am not getting any income for year 2005. So it's totally easy for me to e-file. Clicking and clicking a few buttons and the e-file is done. However, it wasn't so smooth flowing for Olive Tree. WHY? Because he has forgotten his Singpass PIN and he has to get a new one. Worse part is, he can only get it today, since I am such a last minute work person, he'll have to mad rush into getting the PIN from the appointed places for SINGPASS application. I felt bad and I apologise. What to do with a wife like that? Just have to bite the bullet lor. Since last week test posting in the office is working well, I deem I should step up my blog update. Has not been very constant in updating my blog, be it the scrapblog or this. Feeling bad about it. Seth has been growing in tremendous speed! haha! That's obvious! He starts to enter the mimic stage where he'll mimic t...

Doggy Poo

Seth's into this Korean Anime Craze now. He was so into Pororo for the past 2 weeks. Then last Thursday, he has a new fav, Doggy Poo . The Anime is quite a meaningful one and Seth enjoys watching it, he names the characters, he asked about the story line. The funny part of it is hearing him say, "Doggy Poo" with such a cuteness. The story tells the little ones and even us, adults, God has a good plan for all of us, no matter how insignificant we may think our lives are. Image courtesy from Wikipedia Tomorrow we are sending Seth for his review. Hope his lungs are cleared and the medication feeding days are over. It's really a great struggle to feed the little guy his Antibiotics. Even now, he can goes on and on repeating the word, "Anti-biotices". Compose a tune about it! Aiyo. :(

showing it differently

Sometimes, there are questions on my mind, on the love I have for Olive Tree or vice versa. How much we love each other? Ok, mushy....but that's the fact. Women in general will have such thoughts, whether the husbands still love the wives like courtship days, will the love ever change...blah blah blah... Maybe it's due to the fact that husband and wife have been staying together for so long, somehow or rather, might have taken each other for granted and will not express the love for one another that often which spurs such funny thoughts. However, my man has chosen the other ways to show me he still cares and loves me as much. For the little or big things that he do for the family and me. Olive Tree was in my scraproom last night, while I was in the living room watching Oprah. I thought he was doing some handywork for Grace's cabinets or something for Seth..... This morning, when I woke up, I went to my scraproom and this was what I saw besides my scrap table.... It's so...
