Missing my little one

Can't wait for this to be over, for the first time ever I didn't enjoy going for overseas trip. Having to leave my little one for 4 full days makes my heart aches. I can't bear to leave her, maybe that's the reason for falling sick. I caught a flu last night, what a great timing, just before my trip. Now I wonder how am I going to survive for the next 3 days without my family around me.... Felt so vulnerable now.



Symptoms:

Cough

Sore throat

heachaches

body aches

fatigue

congested respirtory tract



Now this computor says I only have another 3 mintues before the system will kick me out... great!



Sigh I am a changed person, I used to love company trips. Not anymore. My little one seem unaffected by my absence, maybe she is still too young to notice. I am not worried as I know she has many great people taking care of her.

Guess I will not be joining their ECA other than those made compulsory. I am so sleepy right now.

Will be back on Wednesday night. sigh... drag.

Laughing Natalie

My Natalie just had her 2nd immunization yesterday. She is now heavier than a 5kg pack of rice weighing about 6.7kg. The funny thing is, the Ped said that she is under weight and the ideal weight for babies of 4 month should be at 7.5kg. When I heard that I was kinda affected, started to blame myself for not taking good care of her. The mother's self blaming guilt started to bite on me so hard that I wasn't able to concentrate on my clinical papers.

Anyway after seeking some 2nd /3rd/4th opinions from experience mothers and doctors, they told me that my baby is not under weight. There is no major concern about her health and her weight doesn't pose any threat that she is not growing healthily. Her motor skills are well developing and she can respond spontaneously at different sights and sounds.

After hearing that, I finally let down my guard.
A video of Natalie laughing so very loudly when I was playing peek a boo with her on the floor mat.

If you have the time you may want to take a look at it, I guarantee you will laugh with her too!

Natalie at 4 months old

Hi everyone, I haven't been making appearance lately due to some technical fault my mummy is facing with her lappy. Luckily her kind company provided her with a company lappy and now she uses that to make me seen in her blog again.

I have recently turned 4 months older, now I am able to do lots of things as my motor skills are slowly developing. I flipped onto my tummy without the help of anyone, yes I did it on my own and I really enjoy doing it. I can flip many times and not get tired of doing it. I laugh a lot too when they play Pee-a-boo with me, isn't it hilarious just looking at them making funny faces to me? Hahahaha

Mummy dressed me up in this beautiful white embroidery dress one day and took a photo of me. I am getting prettier heheheh!


My mummy and me.

I haven't been updating my blog, for the past week I was facing some tough decision and a tight timeline. Just when I had almost relinquish to be creme de la creme of the workforce, opportunities came knocking on my long shut door again. I had to decide once again to pick up the very tempting offer and get my lazy arse out to work.

I give up becoming a carefree Tai Tai, do you think that my decision is silly? Now instead of relaxing at home, chasing episodes after episodes of Dvds, I need to wake up early in the morning and drive around Singapore. I took out my boxed up medical dictionary just the other day and arranged them nicely in my new book shelf. Finally they are out in the open again, they have been kept real long in the dark that they almost mould.

Yes I have accepted a great job offer that pays me a premium.
Yes I am officially at work now.
NO I will not disclose where....

By the way, I still cannot upload any photos and worst of all, my wireless modem couldn't establish a DSL connection...

Oh my ever so cute Natalie is 4 months old! She is getting mischievous, but I love her to the Max!

End of Tai Tai life.

A very good offer is hard to come by, so I will be a stupid dumb dumb if I were to reject it.

I still cannot upload photos on my blog... dunno why

Cannot upload photos

I cannot upload photos to blogspot .... been trying for days already. It kept showing this error message:

HELP HELP HELP..... anyone knows how to settle this problem?

Good life

Many of you must be wondering how come I didn't come online for weeks? You must be thinking that I should be very busy taking care of Natalie and therefore no time for blogging and chat in the forum. In actual fact I am not busy at all, I was only busy trying to finish the DVDs I rented from a nearby video store and that was my itinerary for the past few afternoons. Besides doing DVDs marathon, I have been out in the afternoons and weekends too, like lunch threats, manicure and pedicure session, movies so on.

Life's been good, no, in fact it's great! I have engaged a domestic helper from the Philippines to assist me in taking care of Natalie. (If not for her help, I won't be able to do the above) Took the advise from many friends telling me that since I can afford it, why not let the maid take care of Natalie? I am now in charge of playing with Natalie only. Hahaha!

I am very fortunate and I thank god for blessing me with a good life. I do not need to do household chores nor cook as they are taken care of by my Indonesian maid. Yes, now I have 2 maids at home. I have an additional maid from the Philippines, I finally able to enjoy my life just like my pre-pregnancy days. She is a mother of 4 herself and the youngest child is already 8 years old.

A surprise visit from these 2 lovely sisters, Miko and Jace on a weekday afternoon surely brings out a joyful spirit in one person. They were so happy when they saw Natalie and kept singing praises of how adorable and cute she is. At first Natalie just stared at them blankly but she seemed to be able to recognised Miko as she greeted her with a big wide smile. Too bad for Jace, as it was Natalie's first time meeting her, she seemed to be afraid of her. Babies are afraid of strangers, or new faces, so Jace by the time Natalie sees you again she will also be smiling.



Looking forward to more gatherings with you ladies soon.
