Messy Saturday

This Saturday of mine sees a very messy house, with toys all strewn all over, despite how many times I try my best to keep it back into the toybox. Somehow the boy will just upturn his whole treasure chest full of toys and voila, magic! The house is messy once more... table turned upside down so he can stand on it and do his jiggy jiggy moves, chair on its side so he can play drum and shirts all over so he can lie on them like the baby in the softlan ad. *sigh*

Its raining cats and dogs at the moment, thunder roaring and I am here, wondering if it would stop by the time both the boys wake up from their nap for some carnaval buffet! Been seeing it for quite some time now, always packed full with customers so it must be good and I remember KelvinSiah telling me about it.. so well, might as well drop in for a try on some meat buffet! *yumm*

TommyTKC's wedding is coming up and soon, after his would be NickLenny's and then HueiJin's in Penang. Sadly I can only attend one wedding in Penang and that would be NickLenny's as I have made my travel plans for that.. guess it will have to be Gwen to represent me should she make it back to Penang in Dec. I love weddings! I love babies! I love news of friends getting pregnant... I mean these are all happy news right and I have every right to be happy for them.. =) About a month's time to go before I head back to my beloved hometown with Jaden and let the makan session begin. I wonder if the Evergreen Laurel hotel still serves Jap buffet ev Saturday. If yes, I think I will bring my parents there for a chow! I love the lobsters they have there! Big, juicy and succulent.. thankfully NickLenny's wedding falls on a Sunday.

Last night, I decided to cook a new vege dish to add on to the House-of-Yap's menu. Stir Fry Sambal Belacan Four Angled Beans. Was too hungry to remember to take photos but well, I could do better... but at least it was edible and both Hubby and I finished our dinner without any struggles. It helps when the butter chicken he cooks is yummy yummy delicious and the sambal belacan four angled beans with its crunch and spicyness makes finishing up the whole pot of rice easy peasy! =)

p/s: I just told Hubby a few days ago that I need to go on a diet before the wedding comes so I wont look fat when I go back Penang.. and here I am talking nothing but food, food and more food.. *shakes head*

Next to try is to make pasta salad with spiral pasta and not fail at such an easy dish. I am hopeless when it comes to being a woman in a kitchen. Then maybe eggplants as taught by Linaree.

HunYee Bunny, Happy Birthday!!!!!

My HunYeeBunny,

May you have a wonderful birthday and *hugsss*

Please don't push!

I couldn't take the pain.. it was coming every 8-10 minutes. The type where you just want to curl up into a ball and pray it goes away. The contractions were coming on quite strong now and I screamed for Hubby to call up the hospital to ask for advice. I am sure my cervix is dilating but not sure how big the dilation had become.

The nurse told us that once it reached 5 minutes apart, we should start packing to go to the hospital and only then she will informed the doctor to come in.. I was like wtf? Shouldn't she put the doctor on alert mode now and ask me to go in instead of waiting for a 5 minutes apart contraction to happen?

The contraction came on so strong that I could not even bring myself to stand up proper or move an inch. Then my doctor called and said he thinks I am about 8 cm dilated and should be ready for labor anytime so I should hurry and get my ass to the hospital as fast as I can.. wtf? Now only you tell me?..

Suddenly, I told Hubby that I have an urge to want to push. I can't take it anymore.. I need to push.. Hubby says hold it in.. hold it in... no.. wait till we go to the hospital.. Please don't push yet.. don't push!

##%@!$$% I opened up my eyes and Hubby just came into the room to sleep from his football match and I? woke up to a bad tummyache.. *sigh* Thankfully it was all a dream.. I wouldn't really want to go through birth without the epidural! and birth right now? no no.. not now.. *phew*

Imagine the sigh of relief that the pain was from the tummyache and not some contraction pain.. *P H E W !! *

but what do the dream mean? Why come the being in labor period and not some tummyache dream instead?

Pregnant
To dream that you are pregnant, symbolizes an aspect of yourself or some aspect of your personal life that is growing and developing. You may not be ready to talk about it or act on it.�This may also represent the birth of a new idea, direction, project or goal.

Is this true?

1st Official Class

Woke Jaden up at 10am, quickly fed him full and bathed him soon after, got ready myself.. waited a bit for Hubby and off we went for Jaden's 1st official class @ Kizports & Gym.

It turns out to be he was the only boy in the class with three other girls but he got along fine. He did not push, he did not snatch toys but played by himself as usual. This time round, the teacher got hold of him to let him try balancing and walking on the ladder steps (something like balancing on the beamwalk for concentration purposes) rolling him (which the father heavily disaproves of..lol) and teaching him how to push and roll an object from point A to B.

Jaden does not dare to do all the gym work, like climbing up the stairs, going over under and all that. He is still scared in that sense but I have introduced him to climbing up the two steps to slide down, which he likes so I guess, the next class we go, he might just want to try that one out again. Gotta let him be more confident when it comes to such things.

He did participate this time in trying to catch the bubbles when the teacher blew them. In fact, all the kids love it and Jaden even threw a tiny tantrum when the teacher was done with the bubbles blowing session.

The funny thing about Jaden is each time he does something, like joining his classmates in whatever the teacher was teaching them to do, he will look for his father for signs of approval. Its as if it is only ok to do all the movements if the father approves of it. The only time he comes to me is when he is shy and hides behind me.. but throughout today, he was just being a happy smiling boy running round and round the whole class.

By the time class was done, Jaden was already misbehaving a little here and there. A signal that he is tired and will want to nap anytime... Well, he did fall asleep soon after I showered him and put him to bed. The whole family in fact, took a nap, resulting in me waking up first to mop up the mess that Jaden made when we were eating our lunch before nap, then Jaden... and Hubby? He is still chasing butterflies and rabbits in zzzland I guess.. =)

Next week, it will only be Jaden and I that will be attending class... Hubby prefers to sleep his Sunday morn and afternoon in and begin work in the evening.. *sigh* One of the cons of marrying a workaholic.. well, at least he will make time and play with the boy everyday despite being really really really busy. =)

i *heart* today

Most friends of mine would know that ever since I became a mother, I have been shopping more online than going to boutiques or shopping malls. Guess my life changed in a way and voila! there is a lot of e-boutiques out there that offers competitive prices and shopping is real nice when its just a click away. The cons -you just cant feel the material and try it on to see if it really fits you good. Its a risk to take but usually, it ends up well. If not, there is always a choice to sell it or give it to friends who might like it and fit it well.

Today, Grace and I went to A Shopaholic's Den Halloween Bazaar @ 3TwoSquare and boy! I enjoyed that shopping trip real nice. Why? Because I didn't have to think about Hubby being tired and pissy chasing after Jaden. Iz helped babysit Jaden at his place. My hubby? He was so deep in slumber I doubt he knew his wife and child went out...

Managed to buy 2 dresses which I had eyed online for less than RM50 and a big black bag. I kind of fell in love at first sight with all the things I chose.. so the bazaar was only a matter of touch/feel/try and colour... is such a happy-fyings day for me!

Took Jaden back from Iz at about 530pm, bought late lunch/dinner for Hubby, put Jaden to nap after his milk and out I went again. This time to Tesco by myself to stock up on baby rice cereals, hand towels, Korean noodles and to collect the Buy 1 Free 1 drink from Starbucks as the voucher expires today. A nice drive to and fro with me blasting my radio .. sometimes its a bliss to have just your own me time and today is one of the rare days that I get to myself.

Satisfied I am ... so no more shopping for quite some time till maybe another bazaar comes? *gRin*

Got to put Jaden to bed now so he can wake up by1030am and be fresh for his Little Rompers!
