haPPy 1st BirTHday, our Darling BOY!



seth1birthday-02

I've been neglecting the blog for months. That's really bad. I hope I am not neglecting Seth and Olive Tree too. :D I have been very involved in scrapbooking, doing up LOs and albums for gifts.

Seth's birthday celebration was held on 18th June 2006. We had the party at home and invited approximately 60 guests. We catered buffet. Olive Tree and I were so busy with decorating the house up with balloons, birthday banner etc. I was totally tired out as I went for an overnight crop at MWL and was busy decorating the goodie bags and complete the accordion album for Olive Tree (Father's Day's Gift). I went home at 5 plus in the morning on Saturday morning. Thereafter, we went gathering the last minute stuffs for Seth's party. The party started around noon and guests arrived. I was glad that the day went on smoothly. All the stuffs I planned for were in place. Only hiccups was the late arrival of the birthday cake! Olive Tree and I were apologetic that some guests have to go before we blow the candles for Seth. Nonetheless, rest of the things went on smoothly. I totally knocked out at 6 in the evening while nursing Seth to sleep. He didn't sleep for the whole day.

How time flies and it's already Seth's 1st Birthday! I was overwhelmed with work on 21st June. Work flooding and I manage to knock off only at 8 in the evening. I felt bad that I didn't manage to celebrate this special day with Seth. Let alone to reminisce the time when I give birth to him.

Throughout the 1 year with Seth, I have learnt and enjoyed so much. Olive Tree and I enjoyed parenting Seth. He learnt very quickly, he is so smiley, an easy baby too. It's really amazing that I have total breastfed him for 1 full year! What an accomplishment! *Pat on my shoulders* The experience I gained from being SAHM, parenting Seth and living as a family is invaluable to me. I treasured the moments too. There are time when I will loose my cool over Seth constant need to be nursed. Or he is grouchy to the limit. But still the enjoyment is greater. The Lord has grant us the patience with our child and also to our partner. Olive Tree is more open and share the loads of taking care of Seth. Also, I see the other side of Olive Tree, he sings, he dances, he coax and also adore Seth! I see the fatherly side of Olive Tree, totally heart warming.

"BB Seth, you have grown so much. Though it's just a year, but the difference it makes is great! You impact our lives greatly, you let us realize how unconditional love can be. Daddy and Mommy is very proud of you. We know that we will always provide the best for you. Though at times, we loose our patience with you but that's temporal and we'll soon be envelope with sunshine smile from you. Our darling boy, we wished you a very happy 1st birthday!"

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...

No Idea

No idea to what I need for BB Seth, my 3rd sis-in-law asked, what else do we need for our blessed champion, think left and right, still can't think of a stuff that Seth's require....haa... Besides the Baby Cot that we need for him (which is, we are not going to buy), but that is too expensive for my sis-in-law to buy for us anyway. We are hoping for blessing of a dream Baby Cot for Seth. Otherwise, we will just make use of my bro's daughter's cot, which has been used since 1st kid, but still in pretty good condition. Today, went out with one of my TaiTais' Club pal, Janet. We went for lunch at Sembawang Hill Food Centre, her friend is operating a Pasta Stall there. Not bad, the food are reasonably priced, and the quality are comparable to Pastamania.....heard that she has to even reject crowds on weekends due to the high demand and long waits. Adding to my list of shopping for delivery, 4. Nursing Bras (How many to get huh??) Till now have yet, to meet up with Jed, ...

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...
