It's working great and it's working fine! So thrilled about getting my PB to work with McD's wireless. Now, I can enjoy free wireless surfing in McD, if the needs arise. (Not that I can have BB Seth with me and sit in McD to do free surfing and munch fries tho...) After church service today, Olive Tree and I brought BB Seth to McD for our lunch and also to test run the downgrade version of airport. I really appreciate so much that Olive Tree let me do this silly stunt and even try to coax BB Seth when he starts to ask for milk. I quickly did the test run and dropedp my posting in the forum , then head for nursing room. Phew!! It was a great family day outing. I realised that I always bring the camera out but never really snap any pictures when we are out. I will do that in future, since it's really boring to always snap BB Seth's photo at home. We tried to get BB Seth a cap for his upcoming photoshoot . Hiaz...so difficult to get one man! End up, we've got a ve...

Woke up so early this morning. Must be due to special activity that's why I woke up. After a round of special deposit, I couldn't get back to sleep but keep thinking if I should try out my apple airport downgrade exercise. Contemplated for so long already! Finally, I plucked up the courage to do the challenging task (Cos if anything goes wrong, it's gonna be a day of troubleshooting and probably missing church and precious family outing day!) Ok, great that BB Seth is sleeping soundly and Olive Tree catching his well deserved rest from the week's work. So I am quietly doing my downgrade on a cosy Sunday morning. Did all the required steps as per posted in the thread, everything looks sunny after the downgrade (hope I did all correctly). Next, will have to bring my PB to McD and try out if I can surf!! That's the ultimate reason for doing the airport downgrade. Apparently, the apple folks upgraded the version of OSX and kinda cause a no-connection to McD's APs i...

We make life choices, choices that impact your life, be it small or big. Hmmm.. This week has been a very fast pace week. I could not even feel that it's already Thursday?! I am presented with another job offer by my previous boss. I could accept or reject. It's just that simple. However, I miss working. I know I will miss spending time with Seth more. That's obvious. So the choice is a BIG one for me to make. It isn't that bad actually. I am given the choice to Work From Home. I am given the choice to work till end of Dec and get a nominal salary for what I am employed to do. So, it isn't that bad after all, isn't it? I just do not want to commit and not do a so-so job. I wanna do something better if not excellent. Ok, just say that I am a procrastinator. I admit. Somehow, the opportunity came knocking on my door to go back BJG to teach. Then I know, something will be brewing in my ex-boss mind. So I am right about it. Enough said, I shall take up the job offe...

and today is the DAY!! Inspired by his incessant scratching and seeing bleeding spots on his head, we decided to get him shave for good. By doing so, he will have even hair growth, clean cut and probably, will not scratch further..... we hope so. So a chronological photoblog on how BB Seth's got his botak head. "Who is going to shave my hair?" "I better cover up now otherwise..." "End up, I can't escape the shaver..." So, this is the scratch marks that BB Seth left. Circled is just an understatement how many marks he has put on himself. *tsk tsk* They call it, 阿姑路 (in teochew). Wow! If the 姑姑 has to take such a road, then sure go siao! iTunes is playing 痴心絕對 ( 痴心人聖誕快樂 Remix 版 ) from the album " 絕對痴心．手放開 " by 李聖傑 Technorati Tags: blessedseth

sometimes, you bound to have days that are so bloody filled with people to antagonize you repeatedly. People whom you love so much, whom you called loved ones and always try to put their best interest at heart. However, when all these people starts to bombard you with shitty nonsense and yada yada all the way about their life's experience, which you clearly do try to lend a listening ear but don't wanna give a damn on the advice as you have your own way of doing things. I am currently in such a situation. It's a terrible scenario to be in my shoes. Scenario 1 - Coconut oil and more coconut oil MIL and mom has been bugging non-stop about applying coconut oil on BB Seth's cradle cap condition. Instilling the thoughts that coconut oil is sooooo good and helps clear the cradle cap in light years and hair will grow so lustrously and shiny thick black hair in no time! Gosh!! I am so tired of the endless advocation of the coconut oil. Presently, am applying olive oil that Oliv...

Read a very interesting article in Young Parents about how women cope with being a first time mother and foregoing the DINK's(Double Income, No Children) lifestyle. It kinds of reflects how our priorities in life changes when we have our firstborn child and also how being a mother, our characters changed too. However, is it a born with it nature or trained motherhood? Some mothers are really born with the motherhood instinct. Knows how to handle a child, how to take care and nurture the child in their own ways that best suits the family style. Some mothers are trained as in, throughout the child's life, the mothers learn and knows what are the things that best or bad for the child and through trial and errors, built themselves to be better mothers. I do feel that and I hope it's a view my Olive Tree shares, that I am of the prior category. I do not say that I never learnt how to take care of children. I do pick up the ropes and skills from my mom who was a baby sitter for ...

Darling Seth has been so fidgety lately. PD told us that Seth's constant scratching of head is a bad habit, not that his scalp is itchy. In order to prevent him from scratching, I would hold his arms whenever he's asleep. However, when it comes to the nights, I am not able to do that since we are totally knock out till the time Seth makes noises then I will wake up and breast feed him. Last night, I tried to restrain him from his habit again. It was a futile effort. Woke up at 2.30am to feed him, then saw his dried and flaky cradle cap , I got up and get the olive oil to apply on his scalp and his forehead. His scratching got me so concern that i held his arms and drift into sleep but woke up when i felt his arms shifting upwards again. Were persistence but end up, at 4.30am, I gave up totally and grumbled to Olive Tree that I did not sleep well. Made my silent prayer to Jesus and cast the worries to HIM because only Jesus makes all things well and good! Then I went back to hav...

Last Saturday, was Children's Day. We brought BB Seth to the beach as a celebration of his 1st Children's Day. It was a day with nice weather, sun, sand, sea....and the little one was sleeping so soundly in his car seat enjoying the sea breeze! Can you see the Daddy's boy look?? Olive Tree really love BB Seth to the core. This act of love, show us, how our Father God loves us and even much more. We are so blessed! Yesterday, went to see Dr Ong EK @ SBCC. Dr Ong said BB Seth has eczema, and mommy is to refrain from dairies products, seafood, peanuts since I am breastfeeding BB Seth. There goes mommy's favourite dairies products! I can't imagine if BB Seth were to drink formula milk! Wadau! He gonna drink soy based milk then?? But we rebuked the skin disorder in Jesus's name. BB Seth is well! AMEN!! After the doc consultation, we went to ACJ Women's Clinic to see the nurses and passed them the photographs they took with BB Seth when he is 1 week old. They were...

This is what I came upon and got me laughing non-stop...non-stop.... kennysia.com: Pinku My day starts like any other day but something horrendously funny happened. Out of no reason, I was hardworking. Hardworking on cleaning up Seth's sterilizer with citric acid . So I did. Pour in the mixture of citric acid with 200ml water into the sterilizer and boiled it for 1-2 minutes. Leave to stand for 30 minutes. After that, poured away the mixture and sterilize the sterilizer with one cycle. Wipe away any residue. Voila, the sterilizer looks as good as new!! So again, kay khiang, thinking that the electric kettle needs some sterilizing too, I did the same. I was doing the process while mom was taking her afternoon nap. I went out at 3pm to meet my friend for tea. Came back home at 4plus. Mom was awake. While I was again, hardworking, packing Seth's clothes drawers, mom was playing with Seth. Hardworking till mom finished her cooking, bathing and came into my room, I am still packing...
