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!

top of the M

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 ...

A fruitful week

Yes, I've went for my interview with the prospecting company and I am relieved that everything went on pretty well and I finally stepped out of my comfort zone as a SAHM. :D How fruitful was the week? Hmmm. These are the things I've done: 1. Went to IT show and got myself the ink cartridges for my HP Photosmart 2575, the TwinMOS 1GB SD with free Card Reader/Writer . Shopped till I nearly dropped! 2. Went for the interview and managed to catch up with ex-colleagues. 3. Purchased an IKEA SET Workstation! Fantastic and great for storing my SB Stuffs and doing SB works. It's really value for money. Was selling @ $365, now on sale, selling @ $145! There were some hiccups when we bought the the SET Workstation at IKEA. When we reached home and I was eager to get Olive Tree to assemble the workstation, we found out that the hardwares were not in the package! Totally a wet blanket! Next day, we had to drop by IKEA again to get the hardwares and IKEA was apologetic enough for the m...

Road Condition

Ok, I am not in the best mood now after been trapped in the terrible jam from home to mom's. Gosh! Journey took 45 mins! Can you imagine? Even how early we get out of the house, the traffic is really bad. Olive Tree has a morning meeting in office and can't be late for that. So I make it a point to get ready earlier and out of the house by 8am. However, the jam at the expressway started at the tpe exit and we got to take the slip road and travel by YCK. It seems that we got out of a jam to enter another! I can feel his frustration over the jam and mood is bad. He was driving / flooring the accelerator type. Hiaz...... By the time we reached mom's. I am already drained. Knowing Seth would wanna be carried up my mom's, I was harsh to him and asked him to walk by himself and not be lazy. Me having to lug the bags and stuff. I can't be carrying him up even it's only a few floors. Especially now in my 2nd Tri. Not forgetting now, I am hungry again, and nothing to eat...
