Recently, I have been reading a blog abt a mom losing her 3yr old boy to a childhood cancer...and the boy was really beautiful wif blue eyes. N he passed away within 9mths upon knowing. Life is so unpredictable and reading her blog makes me tear. I can feel her grieve and her anguish. I felt heartache for her and for her boy's short life span on earth.
I can't imagine how I would have felt if it happened to me...I would not have know how to carry on wif my life...so lately, I tried not to beat them over trival things and indeed spend more time playing wif them and enjoying their presence.
And I'm really thankful for my 2 adorable and naughty boys. I can't imagine life without them. I won't trade Andre for a girl and I am certaintly happy to have him (tho he often drives me crazy).
I'm jus praying that they will forever be this healthy w/o major illness and be happy and loving towards each other. They are each other best friends now and I hope it will be this case forever.
This is her blog if u are keen to take a look: http://rockstarronan.com/

Andre & his 1st 'MaMa'
I was very happy when Andre came to the toilet and looked at me and called me 'mama' yesterday! Prior to this, he called me 'Daddy' (cannot believed it rite? He called both hb and me - Daddy!!!).
But after that, he had since stopped calling me and when I asked him to call me, he whined and shaked his head :(
This naughty son of mine really had an attitude! He only called me when he felt liked it!

Andre & his mischief
Andre is getting more & more creative. Don't know how he managed to tink of folding down one of the table stand so that it will look like a slide. And he will slide down the table very happily and do it again & again...
He even had fun running down his 'slide'...Enjoying their blueberry pancake
For Daddy who is away on biz trip....we are doing well at home :) Both boys liked the pancakes n the scrambled eggs from KFC :)
DAY 1: Weaning off pacifier
Yesterday I felt that it's a gd time to wean off pacifier for Andre as he is coming to 2 and also he had been very whiny as he kept waking up crying for his pacifier and caused me to feel very tired the next day as I kept having interrrupted sleep.
Not much fuss from him during his afternoon nap as I tink he was too tired liao...he whined a lil bit asking for his pacifier but I told him no more already. I had thrown the pacifier away and promptly patted him to sleep. He fell asleep quite fast as I tink he was too tired.
Nite time, he was more whiny and cried on and off. But I insisted and thankfully I didnt give in to him...took quite a while to pat him to sleep...and he was there opening n closing his mouth as if he was chewing on something. Funny sight! He slept quite well and woke up lesser than the last few nites...
So weaning him off isn't as bad as I thought :)

Andre's 1st day at Childcare
Yes, it had been quite a long time since I last updated my blog. Blame it on my laziness and facebook. And for this new yr 2011, I hoped that I can blog more and share abt the developments of my 2 boys.
So for 2011, the first post will be Andre's 1st day at CC.
Initially, before he started CC, I was confident tat he will not cry for me as he had been very open to strangers, playing wif them & allowing them to carry him. So I requested for him to start CC in mid-Dec 2010 but was turned down as there would be a few new comers too. So the earliest he can start is Jan 2011.
But who knows, as he was turning 18mths, he started to cry for me or hubs when he realised we were out of his sight. So I began to worry as I need to help Amadeus adapt to his new school too in Jan. Thank goodness, hub had a new job and will only began work on 10th Jan. So he can helped me wif both boys.
To my surprise, Andre adapted pretty well on his 1st day. Not crying for me at all or needed me by his side. I just stood at a corner while he explored the place on his own. Ard 10.30am, I said good-bye to him and went off to have my breakfast. He didn't cried at all. When I walked back ard 11am, I peeped him from outside and saw his teacher feeding him his lunch.
After lunch is his bathing time. I stayed behind to watch how the teacher bathe and changed him before I went off.
