Update...

Girls, what's today news huh? kekeke...

Tomorrow will be the girls one month old in the school. Generally I would say they are adapting well. Since last week, when I wave bye to them, they will still cranky and trying their luck if can pester me to accompany them in school. But very soon they realised the fact, just request a kiss from me :* and happily wave bye to me. Clarabelle even tell me to be careful... such a dear right?

Though they are adapting well in the school but children are also vulnerable to virus. Almost near to every weekend, they will sure bring back some germs too. Imagine for just 3 weeks only, they were MC for 3 days?!!

1st weekend, they had cough, fever n running nose. On 2nd week Friday, they came home with cough & running nose again. Luckily they recovered over the weekend. Then 3rd week Thursday, Abella had diarrhoea & both still coughing... -_-

I know this is inevitable and hopfully they can overcome those virus very soon. If not mummy's A-leave will gone very soon... I believe both of you want mummy to bring you for holiday this year right? So you must practice good hygiene and take good care of yourself hor ;)

Feedback from the teacher...
Both of them enjoy school very well. Participate in all the activities. They are a pair of joyous kids.

Abella
Very independant. Take instructions. Social skill yet to be developed. Attached to selective teachers, in fact one only -_-

Clarabelle
Good social skill. Very fun child but likes to depend on teacher assistant.

Yesterday went to fetch the girls. Spotted Abella's craft pinned up... haha! Abella's happy face. Asked where's Clarabelle's craft? Teacher say not done yet. Hm... distracting girls, no focusing, that explain why she cant finish her craft -_-

Then I was looking for a child called Lucus, who had sunk all his insicors & canines into my Abella's wrist few days ago. Luckily he went off earlier, if not... hiak hiak hiak...

No lah, just curious to meet the boy :p Abella was no really frightful, infact very brave to articulate the whole incident to me...

Abe : "Lucus snatch my toy... Lucus cry... and bite me... then Abella cry... 张老师 carry me... Lucus naughty... ... ..."

and then repeat again to her ah ma... and again to ah yi...and daddy...and ah gong....

Complaint queen... -_-

"Bonny" Clarabelle

Looks like I cant have very high hope on my girls, especially Clarabelle, to be a more demure or refine lady since their mother herself isnt one, especially the 吃相 (table manners). Hiak hiak hiak...

I love the "bonny" part of most food.
I love the fins, tails & backbone of the fishes.
I love chicken wings. Will always order "鸡尾饭" whenever I eat chicken rice.
I love pork ribs. My mum's teochew style 肉骨茶 is especially Yummy!

and see Clarabelle enjoying her giant pork rib!

and also take a look at the state of the chicken bone Clarabelle had eaten... If not because I had stop her, she may had disintegrated it further -_-

Note:
Initially this was an longer write-up, more description & elaborating on how I consume those "bonny" food but later I read it myself, it's so gross!

Erk! It can be so disgusted... I feel like becoming a vegeterian now...-_-

How Abella watch ? ? ?

CNY is drawing near... started spring cleaning and packing and realised many of the house items have to overhaul... -_-

Yesterday the sofa was sent to upholstery leaving a big empty space in the living room infront of the TV.

That night, the moment the girls stepped in, Abella realised the amiss : "Oh Daddy! Where is the sofa?"

The daddy play along, asking Clarabelle : "Oh yah! Where is the sofa?"

Clarabelle puzzled : "Huh? Where is the sofa?"

Kekeke...

But then, Abella's concern is : "Where is the sofa... How Abella watch TV now... how... sit where???"

*big eyes*.... kekeke.... she's so funny when she's worried... kekeke

angel . monster

She is an angel...
The next moment... monster -_-

They are angels when...

My dad, their Ah gong

See, this was Abella's first STAR received from the school.

Star

Last evening Abella had an little achievement awaiting for me. She had a well-behave sticker STAR on her collar!
" Who give you the star?" I asked her.
"teacher... " proud but shy, pulling her collar showing me her star.

Most probably she did not cry that day so the teacher gave her a star as an encouragement. Indeed their daddy told me that morning when she reach school, she waved bye to him then ran to the playground. Their teacher 张老师 say Abella is a very sensible child. Clarabelle also but she wants to 撒娇...

Abella, keep it up! and
Clarabelle, must buck up oh :)

Love me

Last night after dinner at mum's place, as usual the girls were tire, refuse to walk on their own and want to be carried. On the way home, I was struggling with the "barang barang" and Clarabelle while the handfree daddy helding Abella had walked far but turned back, saw me struggling, offered "Aiyah... let me carry these things..." then explained to the girls " See, daddy love mummy, so daddy carry things for mummy. Next time both of you must carry for daddy mummy also..."

On another side, I was making face then Clarabelle asked, " Mummy why? "

Oops... :p "Eh... on lar... mummy is tire, do u want to come down and walk on your own? " Clarabelle protested "No..."

This is how my hubby love me... but what's when after dinner, I was hoping to quickly help my mum to clear the dinner table, mop the floor as full of rice n veggie stained and cut some fruits but the girls were cranky and very sticky refusing me to do other things but accompany them poo poo, she she, wash hand and pestering want to be carried, want to go home sleep...

Where is the daddy? No where but busying with the xbox!!!

I was very stressed up as was hoping to help mum finished chores quickly (though mum always ask me to leave it to her) so can go home earlier, then the children can sleep earlier, wont be cranky the next day and I still have to do some essential chores, prepare the children next day bag , if finish earlier, I can sleep earlier too... ... ... everythings have to race with time!

Alright, I can understand he had a tire n busy day, need to chill down but who dont? My mum dont? I dont?

Then after accompany us home, he will leave us again to "so-call" park the car, then chat with friends and puffing...

Alright, I can understand he needs to catch up with friends but who dont? I dont?

I wont want to continue ranting as at time, he does take care of the children & do the house chores and miscellanous , I appreciate very much...

But what I deep felt inside, what is love?
Sweetness in the heart... smile in the eyes... revitalizing voice... snuggle hug...

Oh... I longed to fall in love again...

你等着瞧

Last night the extravagant hubby came and told me...
" Eh dear, Can let me try your pant? My working pants are too slobbish already..."

.....-_-

Yes! He took 3 months to reduce from 79kg to currently 65kg! Now most probably his waistline is about the same as mine... 30cm for a man standing 6' tall is slander but for a 5' me is... ... ... stout!

mocking at me right....

Hearts die, we die

Today is the 5th day of school for the girls... the girls are still crying in the morning. Now is Clarabelle turns, very stickey to me, wants my accompany wherever she goes, whatever she does. And volunteer to accompany me wherever I go, whatever I do... Yes, even to the loo. And when I stop her from tailgating, she insisted : " Clarabelle accompany you ok." sound like I should be appreciating... -_-

Read today "Today", another case of sudden death... cardio respiratory failure... 3 years ago, my elder brother left us suddenly... cardio respiratory failure too... my family has heart disease records... sometime ago I felt some chest pain... went for the treadmill... everythings was fine... got some reassurance, most probably lack of exercise...

This morning on the bus, I felt the suffoacating in the chest... I thought I almost collapse... quickly take some deep breathe in and out... the first thoughts I have is my girls will continue mouring for being not able to wake me up no matter how hard they cry and yell at me, push me gota to be strong again.

There was a time I was too lazy worn out to entertain the girls so decided to close my eyes and rest. My sudden stillness frighten the girls. Initially they tried to wake me up but I refuse to budge. Their continue calling and shaking my body still no respond, frightened them. They started to cry and shake me more vigorously and they puked! I felt so guilty to had dauted them. At the same time, it's reminded me of the scene, 3 years back, at the emergency when I shaked & yelled at my elder brother, insisted him to wake up... but he didnt...

Complex combination?

They are complex combination?
Of course not!

But is me wondering is it the complex combination of food they had, cause them cough with slight fever & down with a flu soon, so mc for two days???

They had durian the day before. The next day, they had outing with Bernice to the goat farm, had 1 bot of chilled goat milk each. Then 1 pkt of soya bean milk each in the car, followed by chilled honey aloe vera drink at the veggie farm and lastly barley drink at 大伯 house... too much "cold" drinks already. Their phlegm is white colour and their cough is "wind" cough...

But the doctor cleared my complex combination thought but explained was the virus they contacted in the school...

Or is it is the honey aloe vera drinks? That was the first time they had and aloe vera is very "cold" food...

Hm... I think my girls' body foundation are like me... "cold" base.

Confliction

Finally I am back to work again!
Was on child care leave pass 2 days to take care the two sick-but-still-hyper-active girls. In fact they were like monster monkey for the pass 2 days! I cannot believed myself that I was yelling & nagging all day and had spanked them numerous time but in dismay, gave up, just let them run wild... -_-

I just hope for the day will be over soonest and I can go back to work. My heart was saying, luckily I am not a SAHM, need to face them 24hrs everyday...

But now, after lunch, at 2pm. I starts to miss my girls.

Most probably is the taking care of the girls while meeting my own high expectation on the house's cleanliness had hit my threshold. I think I am fine if just solely either taking care of the children or doing the house chore. Doing both is really a mental stress, especially if the children do not listen & cooperate but creating mess & chaotic... 炮血管!!

Luckily my mum's consolation. They were sick. So quite tempermental. They got carried away as I am not working, can accompany them and they dont need to attend school. so they 得意忘行, too happy till misbehave.

Take a deep breathe...

Reminder for myself...
Relax, take it easy. Be patience. Dont be grouchy. Focus on one at a time. Piority is quality time with the children. Deep breathe in... SMILE

Homonymous?

ANG was Abella's sirname. That day I was teaching her to recognise her sirname by spelling A-N-G, Ang. She noted : " Mummy, A-N-G is Ang, is not angry. " Showed me her folded arms.

Err... yes A-N-G is not angry is Ang...

I realised, if slang A-N-G, it sound like a-n-g-r-y -_-

The the long-winded girl goes A-N-G is Ang, not angry... is Ang, not angry...

New Year, New Environment, New Start

A very Happy NEW YEAR to ALL !!!

Finally is friday, 3rd day of school for the girls... yes, I'm still survive. Though life is very hectic but I'm kind of, happy. Weird? I'm puzzle too... :p

The girls are doing fine in the school. They do cry when time we have to part and this morning they even beg me to accompany them. I'll most willing to but I reminded them that we had agreed, when daddy & mommy go to work, they'll go to school. Daddy & mommy cannot acompany them but when we finish our work, we'll come and fetch them. They accepted what we had agreed though still crying when waved bye to me.

I'm so proud of them... better leave the school before mommy starts crying too...*sob sob*

At lunch time, I dash to the school to take a peep at them. They are well behave. Sitting beside a teacher, eating something, most probably fruit after meal. Another hand mingle with a toy...

*sob sob* mommy feel like to crying... they are so brave... managing themself thought everthing are so dauting... better leave before they spot me...

but smart too huh?? cry only when mommy is around. Can save their breathe when mommy is not around.

The principal grade them normal behaviour chilldren. Not those difficuilt to handle one.

So what had they learnt in the school?
1st day: Ban Ban Ban! Pretending the hand is gunhand, were playing with Ah gong after dinner -_-

2nd day : revolving herself on the spot till felt giddy, lost balance and fall onto mommy -_-

3rd day : I wonder what they have acquire today... -_-

Tonight better let them sleep early. The pass few days were really very hectic for them. Already dose off in the car when daddy fetch me after picking them up.

Girls, sleep well tonight as tommorrow is saturday! Daddy & Mommy not working, can accompany you whole day and we'll gonna have lots of fun! Yeah!!
