Olive Tree Cafe

I didn't realize how much I could have miss Olive Tree, now that he is gone for his 2 days 1 night workshop somewhere in a 3 star hotel in Singapore. I mean, it's only 2 days 1 night! Gosh! I feel that I have no back bone lei!

The day began with Olive Tree packing himself up for the workshop and kissing us good morning. I woke up early like yesterday as I need to do the chores around the house. BB Seth pooped on his saucer seat, so have to get it washed up so that he can sit in it for the day. I was hopeful that BB Seth sleeps longer but he woke up early today! So I have to look after him and had breakfast. The chores were accomplished with slinging him at the same time, since the saucer seat is still in drying process! That's a feat! Even preparing lunch, I slinged him.

Met Karen (Ex-colleague) at Bugis Junction for tea. So coincidentally, the cafe we went is called Olive Tree Cafe. Invoke my longing for Olive Tree.....hiaz... I had to excused myself to get BB Seth's diaper changed and also breast feed him as Karen had a friend (male) with us. So it isn't so nice to breast feed in front of him. I guess I took somewhat like, half an hour to get back to Karen. It was nice to have chatting time with friends. After tea, it was almost 6pm. I went about shopping with Karen at SEIYU, got the Christmas present for Olive Tree and got 2 tops for myself at a bargain. Had a quick dinner and then we head home. It was already 9 plus in the evening when we got home. BB Seth is really tired, and thankfully that he was under control while I was driving back. I quickly bathed him and get him to sleep by nursing him. He was already asleep when my mom called me! Urrrgh! I know mom's good intention of checking if BB Seth is ok, but the ringing kinda woke BB Seth up. So I pat him longer after I hung up the phone with mom and put him back to his cot. He woke up, thinking that he was all smiley with me, I told him that I am going to take a shower and will come back soon.

Seth's innocent lookWhile I was in the shower, I could hear him cooing away. When I get out of the shower, he was so hysterically crying with tears streaming down his chubby cheeks! I felt so bad! Guess he wanted company. Jon and Marg came by around 10pm as I have managed to calm BB Seth down and get him back to his sleep. We chatted till almost 11pm and they left.

It was pretty much an eventful day if you count the times I have to get BB Seth to calm down and not cry. He's getting more vocal and definitely requires attention. I wish Olive Tree is home, at least I am not so tied up and centred in Seth's day.

@ 1 year oldOh yeah, yesterday was Jewel Jada's 1st Birthday! She's the sweet princess of Justin and Jedidah. She's another happy baby and is loads of fun too. We went to her birthday celebration on Sunday at Jedidah's mom's place. I realized how time flies, Jewel's already 1 year old! BB Seth is already 5 months and 10 days old!

Captured on the night when we had our very first dining experience at Top of the M . The occasion: celebrate Jon's Birthday. It's Seth very first experience, but obviously to him, it's just like any kind of dinner. As for me, I've to wait for 3 decades to be able to have such an experience! bwhaahhaha....what a funny thought. The restaurant has such a quiet ambience and at certain times, Seth was bubbling so loudly that we were so embarrassed. The waiters and waitresses were so nice to come over and play with Seth. One even offered chocolate truffles filled with mint ice cream for Seth! Too bad, my darling son don't know how to appreciate and those went into our tummies instead. (**,) You can see he enjoyed himself loads. Playing and being entertained. He was even entertained by the live strings group (or whatever you call that) with "You are my sunshine" and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Stars". That amazed him! We had a dinner set for 4 of us. Seth ...

Long Time No See/Hear

Yes, neglected the updates of Seth, what's going around at home, at work. Quite a fair bit has happened. Close friends would have known and I really thank God for faithful friends and sisters whom comforted and encouraged me during the time of trial. The episode starts off when I start falling sick frequently, worse came after March 18th, when I had a period of high for a week! That's terrible, felt aching, fever just simply to go away and not well to assume anything. Being out of office for a week proved to be disastrous I guess. Till date, I still have 322 mails not read in my mailbox! HA! The body has taken a toll, mentally, i am weak. Got to admit it, maybe the stress at work wasn't for me. I went back last week to complete outstanding tasks, (too many!!!!) and also trying to cope with so much requests from customers, traveling around, delivering documents. But I wasn't well yet, had diarrhea and vomit so nightly since last Wed till Friday. Boss, was picking on sma...

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. (**,)...
