Trip to Kluang

Since Eliza sister was in mummy's tummy, we haven been to daddy's hometown... till last wkend... Daddy brought us back to gu-gu's new house at Kluang. We had a great time and spent our saturday night there too... I was naughty, i did not sleep well, i woke up as punctual as i always do... 7am... but we only slept at 12mn... how could i!!!? i had fun time sitting in gu-zhang's new MPV... it was a great trip... but without eliza... she's got no passport yet! haha

i rode on min-min's bicycle...

into 4yrs old...(43 months)

he and his super truck... think it's almost 2 yrs old...

yet another playful kid

Kdenn went to Granduncle Eric's house and had whole of his time fiddling with things around the living room. First was the unique bendable leg rest armchair/sofa, up and down, and up and down, again and again... next was the rocking chair, granduncle's beloved resting reading chair, was told it's all oak, and safe for kids because there's no metal or steel screws even at the rocking parts. The rocking is smooth, Kdenn was rocking hard, harder and harder, and mum stare sternly at him, (with terror and fright) to stop him from doing damage to things in the house (oh, plsss!!!)... he was enjoying his time there, talking to granduncle, answering his questions, singing the same song again and again... watching the big 50" plasma in the living room... gosh!! it's a afternoon, BUT... NO NAP, not in the least, TIRED at all!!! amazing! ... happily being snapped, chucking himself with the neck pillow as well... exploring the comfortable lower back pillow rest... bla bla bla.... aiyooooo.... as if it's HIS home!!!??? oh my boy! am i supposed to be angry or happy!?

i'm three-and-a-half

The sculpture at "C"entral...


Why he just love water fountains so much...including this!... he asked mummy to walk him down to see this, from upstairs he saw...

it was grandma's 54th birthday, and after a few weeks of looking after eliza, mum took the day off to accompany her out, and the one left out (daddy) is the bbsitter for the day !!! haha... we had tim sum for breakfast and actually nothing much, just went to get our facial products at Forever Living and then.... happen to see Central nearly so we went to have look since we've NOT been there before. i like one shop there "Maple Leaf" boutique, which have dresses which i don always see at other shopping centres.

::Grown-Up::

Suddenly in mummy's eyes.... Kdenn is really a Grown-Up now...

He also has a sibling now...

Guess we should be feeling "blessed"...

yes... count your blessings rather than be pondering over unhappiness and regrets...

Thoughts. Transition. Awaiting Eliza's arrival

suddenly looked back at 2008 national day's activity photos of kdenn in childcare... memories, memories, memories... compared to now... he's growing real fast... picking up words, habits, good and bad, imitating adults, commenting actions and exploring curiosity here and there.

Remembered when i was admitted to hospital in january 2009, he will look for me (i wan mama) after the 2nd night he din see me for. Can sense the power of mummy's importance and the bond. No matter how fierce and mean i can treat him, no matter how playful the daddy can be close to, he will still find me. He got fever after missing me too much at the 3rd night... and finally saw me receiving him at the Childcare the next day, can see the gladness in his face.

Thinking of the change that is going to happen in 2 wks time... i can't imagine how he is going to take it or look at it. His little sister is coming soon. There will be someone calling him brother in a few years time. Eliza is going to fight with him for things. Will he lead? Will he be proud? Will he fight? many thoughts went through my mind. How will Eliza relate him as? How will both occur together as siblings? How will Kdenn change from there?

No matter what, i know for sure one thing: I love Kdenn very much, fully, truly, mostly, no less than i am going to continue loving Eliza for, no matter how much Eliza is goin to need me for the first few important years, i know Kdenn is still as important to me. I m proud to be his mother. And i m glad that mum is somebody i can rely on to keep him going while i build up my health after delivery again.
