Jaden made friends

Everybody,
Meet Raphael and Gabriella ... =)

Both of them and their mother is Jaden's new found friends. In fact, they were like bestfriends...

Jaden made some friends while he was holidaying away in Penang. Yes.. while we were waiting for our delayed flight back to KL, he decided he wanted to make friends with a friendly French family.




















Look at how happy he is in the photos. He didn't even want to come back to me. He 'kiaped' his legs around the lady refusing me to carry him. *shakes head*

The irony of it

My cab driver that is picking me up in an hour's time is called Mr. Abu.

Yes Gwen! Laugh all you want... =)

guess where Jaden and I will be today?

Best Pedicure ever!

Remember how I said whenever I have an event to attend, I get all sorts of uglies to distort my appearance?

Well, I was so careful this time round, to wash my face at every opportunity I get so my eye won't get swollen like it usually does.

I make darn sure that my nails and toe nails grow to a certain length that will enable me to do a nice mani and pedicure...

Well, guess what? I managed to get the best pedicure ever done nearing 1am last night. It is so good, it only has to be done to the big toe and woaaalahhh, it is so beautiful, I am doing it injustice if I wear my red shoes to the wedding..

and it costs me a freaking $$$$$$$RM82 for just a toe...

What pedicure so keng chao rite?

.......... ................. ............................ ... ................................ *SWALLOWS SALIVA*

Well.. have you ever seen your toes without the nail?

I have before.. when it happened to my thumb when I was a kid.. and now, at 25, history repeats itself but this time with my big toe.

I don't have the gruesome pic about the toe without nail but I have got the process of it coming off.. the doctor which slowly pulled it and then cut it off the skin attached.. all without painkillers. Its fucking disgusting yet its awesome! I am a hero standing the pain... but the aftermath ain't nice. I don't get to wear pretty shoes at the moment.. dang!*















All in my name that only such things would only happen to me.. lifes great don't you think?

and o.Oh on another note.. Jaden just slept off the night without drinking breastmilk last night. Is it a sign he is ready to wean????? Hmm...


p/s: Joy, doesn't this remind you of something similar that happened years ago?

At wits end

Jaden is not being himself today or is he? He has been misbehaving, crying at every opportunity.. don't want to be left alone in his cot, even with cartoon on. He just wants me to carry him or let him be free on the floor but since he is prone to knocking his head on the floor or any hard surface, the floor is off limits to him unless I sit and watch his back for him, which I can't do either all the time because I have got housework to do before I head back north this coming week.





He has woke up crying since 6am and has been on his worst behavior. I thought the last of it I would see coming from him was days after his birthday and now the monster in him is unleashed again. Is it because of teething again? Could it be?



Trying to be patient but sometimes his nonstop crying can drive a cow up the wall, so don't even mention me. Hubby and I got so frustrated that we left him in the cot, while sitting on the couch ignoring him. Of course the little boy did not let us off easy. He cried and cried and cried as if he got tortured and suddenly *s i le n c e*

What? Silence I say?
Yea! S I LE N C E

The little boy must have been so tired, he fell asleep while throwing tantrum and now, I am going to check any more housework to be done. If not, am going to wake him up now before he gets all freshened up and not want to sleep when our bedtime comes.

*sigh*

I am at my wits end already. Sometimes I feel like a failure not being able to understand what Jaden wants but sometimes I just feel like shutting off and telling him off that being such a demanding yeh-man boy won't get him anything he wants... Is it time I start harsh discipline on him? I am not as lenient as his father is tho. The father's mouth might be just loud and harsh but I have no mercy when it comes to whacking.. not proud of it but still, a boy needs a good whacking from time to time if he misbehaves, that is what I think.. if not he might just grow up to be a ruthless one.

I believe in the saying "spare the rod, spoil the child!"
Yes! I am old school in some ways...

*sigh* I pray his bad mood will be gone when tomorrow comes..

Early start to our 2009 weekend!

All of us have been awake since 6am today.
Yes! 6am on a Saturday!
Why? Ask Jaden...
He just woke up and decided to cry and cry and cry and can't get back to sleep so Hubby and I got up reluctantly and took him out to the living room where he happily sat in his babychair and started playing.

*y a w n*

We are going out for an early breakfast in a while and hopefully when we get back home, Jaden would want to nap.. he only slept for 3 hours today. All of us only got to sleep off at 3am when Jaden decided that he no longer wants to play and demand for feed and sleep.

*s i g h*

Its a life changing experience when a kid comes into your life I guess.. and these are some of the sacrifices (lack of sleep is one of them) you make as a parent...

*dang! I am still y a w n i n g g g g g g g g g !!!*

Hello 2009!

Hello!

Happy New Year to you!

How did you welcome in 2009?

I celebrated it with my family, just the three of us... counting down and watching fireworks go off showering the skies with their magic. It was lovely!

We did not have to jostle with the revellers nor do we have to get stuck in the traffic jam. From our place, there is a ideal space where we can watch fireworks go off from One Utama, The Curve and Kepong. How cool can that be? I know.. jealous kan?

Jaden loved every single minute of it... and this is his second New Year which is much more interesting than his first as he is now much more aware of everything that goes on.

This is him anticipating the fireworks...

and this is him with his father saying "YAY! Happy New Year!!!"

Although its rather a quiet affair now compared to the year 2007 which we ushered in with friends at The Curve.. its very meaningful to be just close to your loved ones wishing each other Happy New Year!

I hope the year brings forth better bringings and I, too wish for good health and life to all my friends and family.

May this 2009 be the start of many good things which has avoided us in the past years.

Once again,
