CNY new clothes

The home that I grew up in believe that wearing new clothes to new shoes on CNY brings good luck the whole new year. So from young, we would have new clothes during CNY, my mum would make clothes for us when we are very young, and when we grew into our teenage years, we would always get to shop for new clothes for CNY. Its a very happy event.

Just as I was thinking of bringing F1 and F2 to choose their own CNY clothes, they tore a very expensive dress and skirt.

At the point, I felt heartache, I told my self to bite my tongue, whats torn has been torn. However, I din. I let my tongue loose. I told them that they should be responsible for the dresses they had and I even told them they are expensive.

Should have bite my tongue harder. Its really not easy.

Now i am having second tots on bringing them on the CNY shopping. The dresses they chose are not cheap and they are great at making holes on expensive clothes. Argh. Internal emotions war.

The heartache is an evil.

New Helper

4 kids, 3 adults have scare my great current helper home.

Today I had selected my new helper, becos of last min arrangement, time is not enuff, I have to settle for this one. Not a great choice I felt, but will try it out, who knws?

*Cross finger*

Abacus

When I was young, I learnt abacus and I simply cant rem the formula at all, then I decided that abacus is not for me.

Weirdly, F1 is leearning abacus now, I seems to rem all the formula now. Better then when I was young. For the sake of kids, suddenly abacus seems is for me. Been parentsreally are not easy. All of a sudden, we became all rounder.

I used to hate art too. Haa, din knw I could bake cake with art factor. Not that the cakes I baked are great, but those were not what I love when I was young too. I rem clearly that when my mum were baking and I was asked to help, I grumbled and complained. Even under my breath, I told myself, I wouldnt do it if I were her, I would buy and eat. Why waste energy? Haa.

I became her.

I have been thinking alot more these bo liao days

I have been thinking alot during normal usual days, but even more these sleeping, doing nothing, confinement days.

BB Ian haircut

Today I spent 600 bucks on tai mao bi and umblical cord stamp, cant imagine, but the salesgirl really very powerful. Initially I wanted only the 38 bucks tai mao bi, but she is too good.

F1 came in

She refused to go up to take her prize during award presentation. She said she is shy, and she was the first, what a pity.

This was in top 5 and I think it was impressive, and done by a 4YO. Wonder why F1’s piece was 1st prize. Hee, I guess in the eyes of an artist, hers looked great bah. *Proud*

3rd week into confinement

I finally tried sleeping on stomach, the feeling is weirdest. Very scared my other organs will pressed on my wounded organs and stitches. But I am fine. Love the feeling on tummy.Very secure…

Stitches still hurt. SIL mentioned that after 1.5 year, she still felt the pain, so what could I expect on my 3rd week? Pain? Yes. Uncomfy? Def, esp the stretchband of my panty kept rubbing against the stitches. Urgh~~Each time when I wear my pants, the raising my leg action will cause the stitch area to hurt too.

I wonder what it would be to carry F3. Imagine her leg kicked on the stitches? *wide eyes*

10 more kgs to go

How to lose this 10 KGs? Really wonder…

All my previous preg, by this time I would only had about 5 KG left, I guess is age bah, as I aged, weight lost after childbirth would not be the same.

Even not for weight loss, this year I would like to change my diet. Less sugar, less process food, more grill and steam.

I am not very old, mebe abit(I have 2 white hairs), *GRIN* but not young anymore, the 6 donuts in one go, loads of sweets and sugar, etc has to change. My love for very sugary food and heavy taste food too. Its my addiction. Any such rehabilitation? wahaha, Dun think so.

Planet Earth

F1 joined a contest by KinderArt. Her piece was chosen. I wondered what she won. Hee. Should have asked the caller when he called me, but I guessed I was too surprise. Initially joined the contest is more for fun.

F1’s Art

This is her 4th lesson. Previously she done xmas card, new year card and rainbow.

When she started her art lesson, I was abit apprehensive. The teacher is fierce. She seems scared which was not her usual self.

Now i feel that fierce teacher is good for her, ha. If not for such fierce teacher,I am sure she would never finish an art piece with colouring all done in an hr and half class.

Good training for her before she goes to Pri 1.
