The Little Prince

I am reminded of the the book The Little Prince whenever I see these scribbles. And surely Eden has a lot to say on his drawing (which an adult like me just can't figure out :))



This week I began to 'see'. All the adult out there, do you see what I see ???

Interesting Conversation

Since having Erin with us the boys are a bit curious.

Adam : Mom, How did Erin came out from your tummy. Did the doctor cut open and take her out ??

Mama : No, Erin came out through the bottom ( while showing the movement with my hands )

Adam : Speechless and his face turn horrified

(I think I will leave him the details when he is much older )


While I was feeding Erin.

Eden : Pain..pain.. or not mom?

Mama : Yes, but now no more pain now. You want to try ??

Eden : No

Mama : Why ??

Eden : Later milk milk not nice leh ....

Transformers !

Lately the lego bricks follows wherever Eden goes and normally ended up on his bed at night.

He kept telling me that he wants to build the most 'Keng'(Powerful) robot. (The boys had been debating who can build the best robot)

I must say I am impress with his creativity from what he has see and learn from Adam all this while.

Seeing him building things symmetrically, I wonder will he turn up to be an engineer hey :)

Don't you think that's a cool and 'Keng' robot ??

New Rythm

Life has never been the same since May 24th :) There's so much changes I need to make to cope Erin and of course Adam and Eden.
The things that I want to do it fast I cannot and the things that I want to do it slow I cannot. (reminds me of a bible verse) Cleaning up house take ages now. The whole thing have to be break down to mini size and have to cope with the frustration of many interuption in between.
What happens to things I like to take my sweet time. I wonder whether I rinse of all the bubbles when I run out the bathroom.
Still learning how to set the tempo and rythm right so that we can have wonderful melody.

Who is who ???

My precious gift is finally here. Most people think she looks like Eden. So I dig out some old photos to see whether they look alike. What do you think?? I remember Eden's GodPa guess correctly when I post Eden and Adam's baby photo. Can you guess which is godson now? No peeping at Erin's blog ya :)

Anxious

Have you ever anticipate to receive a parcel of goodies and waited day and night for it? Or you received a present much earlier but was told that you can't unwrapped it until you are told to do so?

Estimated date of arrival has passed. Dear and I are still anxious, waiting for the door bell to ring to see the lovely parcel at our doorsteps and hold it with our hands.

Object lesson

Mom! Look, watermelon big big like mommy's stomach oh !!!

Waiting for the Precious Moment ....

Been having some irregular contraction this few days. This may sound funny, but frankly I'm not really sure its contraction or just an urge to go toilet. So I am praying that other symptom will come along and my contraction instinct will come back !

Dr confirmed that baby has turn to the right position during last visit and asking us to expect 'anytime'. I am feeling like a big fat cow already. Can't walk or stand for long. Practically wake up every hour to pee. Taking shower has been my most enjoyable time. Infact I lost count how often I does it sometimes. This few days has been so unbearable. Its just sooo hot... that I suspect its a heat waves.
I start to wonder how I will survive the Confinement period WITHOUT shower if this kind of heat goes on.

Suddenly realised I don't have many photos taken for this pregnancy. If you wonder why this picture looks weird, that's because I took it myself. Last minute photo before the 'POP'

We are all excited for the moment and pray that God will be with us.

Xhuen 'Koko'

Have been preparing Eden for his new role of a big brother that he will be ready to embrace his little angel with excitement and love.

I must say he is very happy with his new title Xhuen 'Koko' and would refused us to addressed him as Xhuen baby anymore. At the same time, mama has her secret agenda too. He has been trained to changed clothes by himself or with minimal help. Drink from cup (hope to dispose his bottle soon) Sleep without diapers at night. Not successful however :(

Look at proud Xhuen Koko :)

Creation

even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

Craving

Can't remember I had any serious craving apart from eating 30++ kiwi in a week. Since last week these stuff have been occupying my mind and tummy :) Last minute craving?

Sports Day

Athletics from Year 1-3 waiting patiently for their turn.






Adam dashing off with his super speed :)

Washing Day

I am glad to have most of these from friends and just can't wait to put it on her. Notice anything similar??

35 weeks and counting

My belly is definitely big now and it was funny when Shirley (Ee Lyn's sis) still asked whether I am pregnant last Sunday :) Will take that as a compliment heheheh...

I had another funny compliment from Dr. during our visit on Monday. "Wow..Beautiful, no stretch mark" he commented in front of dear. And baby already weights about 2.5Kg

Like other Mama, I don't escape from waking up uncountable times at night which irritate dear and myself. Sunny days has been extreme hot and even rainy nights is hot to me, can't sleep without air cond this few weeks. Starting to feel baby pressing down this week and that makes walking uncomfortable. I thought baby will have less space to move around as she grows bigger. Looks like I'm wrong, at times, I just need to stop and give way for her double.. triple.. somersault and extra hard kicks.

Dear and I are more relaxed at this pregnancy. Have not even packed my bag for the Hospital 'Vacation'. I have a bit of fear this round, somehow can still recall the painful moments when delivering Eden. Gosh... I do pray it will be faster and easier this round.

The other fear is the confinement period. Imagining a Survival camp... no shower... no washing hair... no fan... no cold drinks... no veg and fruits ... very long list if I continue. So I have Plan B, come home after 2 weeks since dear is likely going to work from home during that period.

2 weeks to full term. Yippee !!!

Mama Dentist

3 weeks ago that we noticed a lump right behind Adam's front teeth. And soon after, we discovered a giant teeth immerging. Grandma was somehow concern over that big teeth as milk teeth is still intact and she has a theory that if the milk teeth is not pluck out immediately, the poor boy will have a extra teeth. (Which happens to dear's sis) But when Mama send Adam to dentist, the dr. just asked us to wait and to let nature takes place.

So day after day and week after week Mama Dentist have to checked whether the teeth is ready to come out. And.... the day finally came, where I lay my hand on his teeth and pull with all my might (just kidding) It wasn't that hard as I imagined, was fast and easy (Thank God ) and I just don't expect to see the boy laughing his heart out seeing his own teeth on his palm.

I think he is like daddy, one who laugh when in pain. How weird !!

PS - Too shy to allow Mama to post his picture here :)

Mangga Messiah !!

Thanks Godpa and Godma for this wonderful book that would 'spice up' his reading pleasure.

Easter

"Woooow !! Daddy bring back a Dinasour's egg" Eden said excitedly.
(Godma & Pa had sent him some speckled bird eggs wrapped with love too)
Eversince, he has been opening the fridge now and then to make sure that 'precious' is in place. And of course he did not missed asking THE important question " Mom, can eat already or not?"

After devouring 'precious' today, the dinos moved on to Mama's cupboard for the remaining speckled eggs.

Nowadays we have to look beyond this commercial egg to appreciate the meaning of Easter. We thanked God for the precious gift of life that he has given us and in him we are a new creation.

And it is our prayer that the boys will understand Easter more and more as they grow in His love....

Anti- wrinkle

Woke up this morning actually wondering whether I do looked older. Sigh .... as I spotted some extended eye lashes and how I wish I was standing in front of cracked mirror.

It must be the comment by a insensitive women that we met in a women's initiated forum on how to strengthen family bond few days ago. Dear happened to meet an ex- student there and this lady commented that dear looks 'too young' to be a Sir. Well, this is not a unusual statement that I OFTEN hear. I used to take it lightly and would even joke with dear on these comments. But this round she added by asking whether I am afraid as dear is always surrounded by young and pretty girls. Frankly, I was very.. veeeery... tempted to unveil her 'insensitivity' by asking whether her statement would also implied that I am 'too old and ugly' and should be afraid.

I wonder whether the aging, big belly me that is extraaaa sensitive... or she was just totally unkind with her words.

Oh God ... please send these people away and send your magic anti-wrinkle cream for my heart. And I think, I need a few bottles :)

34

Celebrated my birthday yesterday with dear and the boys at one of our favourite place. The boys were so excited and Eden was so eager to sing his familiar song. So we let him do a solo Birthday song when this heavenly Chocolate Molten birthday cake sat on the table .Gee.... I suddenly hear angel's voice and he was so.. so.. sweet. ( It was such a moment to be captured but arrh... and we forgot to bring the camera! )

Thank you boys and dear for such precious moments.

Loving...

Boys .... they quarrel , they fight, they cry and they can be so loving too :)
I love this pics. Makes me smile :)
