Time flies, Adel is 10 months old now. It’s a bundle of joy to see her happy face and genuine sweet smile everyday. She is a great eater too, never picky about food; whatever Sri serve, she would happily gobble down her throat.  She has two pearly white at the bottom of her gum, constantly looking for things to bite in order to soothes her itch gum. I could feel her teeth while breast-feeding her. She used to bite me, ouch, but after a few times of “NO”, she learnt. She could pull herself up since 9 months and could crawl super fast now.

There’s two more months to go before I decided to stop breast-feeding her. If I could I would not stop, I think I am gonna miss feeding her so much. I really want to breast-feed her as long as I could. However, I can’t, simply I don’t feel eager enough to share my breast between my daughter and my husband. Sounds funny eh? I wonder does breast-feeding mothers out there facing such dilemma?Therefore, I need to put a stop to it and takes care of my hubby’s need too. I hope I have done enough for Adel.

Adel very busybody,  disturbing her brother doing homework.

As for Ivan, he is growing fast and demanding as well. He is better at handling homework and Mandarin. While watching “Wah Lai Toi” with me, he could point out words like “牛肉,妈妈,” at the subtitle on the screen and words at Chinese restaurant’s wall. He is crazy about Ben 10 toys, watch and games at the moment, every now and then, he wants toy. Boy, do you know that mom and dad’s wallets are very windy and have very big hole edi? :)

Whatever I am doing now is not all that easy as I have to constainly suck up to people. Well, to be honest it comes with perks like really nice and expensive paid for meals but after a while, I kind of get immune to it and started to think otherwise. There are lots of work to complete daily, sometimes I hardly even have time to read the news. My one-leg-kick job is getting a little on my nerve. I so wanted a break. So fast eh? I underestimate my threshold…

The other day when I was coaching Ivan with his home work, (They are tons of them, sometimes we finished hw at 11pm, CARZY!) he got frustrated with me correcting his mistake in Chinese Characters, he threw his pencil, and said,

“You just throw me to the rubbish la.”

“Huh?” I got so stunned, gosh!!! (He must have picked up what I said about throwing him to the smelly rubbish dump if he is naughty.)

This is not the first one, there are more…in the car, while talking, he got upset with me and bla out something like this,

“You just throw me outside la and the cars will langgar me.” -”bite fingers.

“I hope you are joking, I care for you that’s why I tell you all this. If you are not my son, I don’t think I will care. Like those dogs outside, nobody care for them, no food, no milk, no home, no toys, no mummies, do you want that to happen to you?”

No”, he replied.

 ”You are joking right?” I asked him again.

“Yes, I am joking”, with a frown.

Hello! Miss me or not? I really miss all of you bloggers. I have been real busy lately, time really flies and there are so many occurrences. We attended Ivan’s school concert, it was awesome. He surprised us by his very charming performances. I am glad that he has shown lots of improvement in school. My poor boy is recovering from chicken pox now. Aiya…the maid la, past chicken pox to my boy. Luckily it was just a very minor one. The fellow is now playing games beside me. He is very super “geng” and “savy” with his games. I do limit his time of play though, he now gets to play only after dinner.

As for Adel, she is growing up fast and well(6.2kg now).  Drinks quite a fair bit, has a better pattern of drinking and sleeping. It’s easier to handle her now. During day time, we send her to the nanny. Yup, I started working again on Monday. Initially I wanted to start work after Dec but when an opportunity arises, I just grab it, can’t afford to loose it. ;) My mom-in-law is in Australia now looking after my sil whom just gave birth as well. Back to my work again, it’s a totally new area I am venturing into. There are a lot to pick up at work. I was not brief by my predecessor so I kind of have to pick up piece and pieces she left in the office.

Oh Yea, I am still breastfeeding Adel like normal except I express it in the office. It is fortunate that the environment is very friendly. It has a room with toilet attached that I could use to express milk. At home I still feed her direct. I find it so convenient feeding her direct especially at night. No hassle, easy-peasy, just lift up the shirt and feed. Haha! I really hope I could keep feeding her as long as possible. I am a little stress out today, having shoulder ache and I need a lot of sleep. I am gonna get some sleep now. I love to hang out with u bloggers again. Please do keep me in the loop if there is any meet up in the future. I am like so outdated. ZZzzzz…

We were in The Gardens over the weekend. I thought of getting something for my Sil’s kids. I can’t believe my eyes la. It was incomplete and full of dust and worst the sharp glue-like smell is disgusting and made my eyes tears. I fear for Adel’s safety, we left after 10 minutes entering the building. I think half of the merchants are not even ready. A unique scene probably only can be seen in Malaysia where incomplete shopping mall is up and running.

Left with no choice, we head back to Mid valley and went shopping for some gifts in Baby Gap and later for food. While looking around for food, Adel needs her feeding; I went straight to the feeding room in Jusco. There were 3 nursing rooms; two were occupied with mother and baby. So I head straight to the last one holding my daughter. I saw two fat ladies with orange top and sarung skirt (Body Shop Promoter girl) sitting on the couch. Well, I was expecting them to move their big butts and give way to me la. Nope, the two inconsiderate fat butts decided to stick their heavy bottoms on the couch and ignore me. What the F? People are so bloody inconsiderate. Hello…knock knock, wake up, go else where to curi tulang. I WANT TO BREASTFEED. I have no choice, just took a stool, still holding a big bag and my daughter and they are chatting very loud. I sat beside them to feed. Feel like strangling them. It was very uncomfortable, I just walk off the next room…arr…it was empty edi, Phew, relief!

Well, nonetheless the weekend is still fun with 2 kids.

Took some photos of Adel 2 weeks ago lifting up her head.
