My Book Therapy

I have always had a strong preference for non-fiction books. These are the books that I am currently reading. They are my favs and I know I'll prob read em again many years later.My all-time fav is the one that Dabo bought for me.I was very touched when he gave it to me coz it speaks to my heart so much.It is my food bible!Reading allows me to slow down my speed of life and get in touch with myself.As we eat to strength our body;reading nourishes my soul.

Our dream camera

Recently our family is into photography.Dabo is saving to buy this Nikon.It costs abt SGD3,500 or less.He has even bought a dry box to keep all his cameras.Another one of his big time hobby again.....

My new camera

This is my new camera that I paid SGD150 (Dabo subsidies the balance.) I like it for its compact size & light weight.I've always been a fan of Nikon and after comparing the image with Canon that Dabo has,it proves that I'm right.Ha!

My baby is up to no good....again!

Immanuel simply refused to be let down into his walker this entire weekend.So,while doing the dishes,I sat him down in his high chair.And I gave him a cup of water to drink.When I turned around a couple of seconds later,he had soaked himself through!But I couldn't bear to stop him as he was thoroughy enjoying himself and chuckling non-stop! I gave him a quick shower and tucked him into bed after that.

My God-send gynae - Dr. Jeanette Chen

Today is my annual check-up w Dr. Jeannette Chen at KKH.Both Ken Ne and I really looked fw to see her again.As we walked down the familar alley seeing all the familar shops again,fond memories started flooding back.We have come to know this place so well from all the monthly check-ups during my prenancy.Now that Immanuel is already one years old,it is hard to believe that time has passed so fast!It seemed like only last month that I came here for my usual check-up!!!I decided to take a pic outside the Macdonald's coz this is also the place where Dabo and I take our meals whenever we come here for the check-ups.

My unforgettable lesson

I dun know what's the matter w my little Immi these two days.He seemed extremely cranky at the slightest thingy.Juz on sunday,as we were returning home from church,he started wailing very hard in the car.And he did that all the way till we reached home.Then,once inside the house,he refused to sit in his walker or be left anywhere else.He juz kept clinging onto me like a little koala bear!To add to my dismay,he continued to whine despite me carrying him.He was inconsolable!I was getting frustrated and flustered coz I din know what's wrong w my little sweetie.When he tried to stood up in his bath tub,I yelled at him and pushed him down very hard.After his bath,I told Ken Ne to make him some milk hoping that might calm him down a bit.But to our surprise,he finished it all!(He only had his last feed 2 hours ago.)So,it seemed that he was juz trying to tell us that he was hungry.I felt so terrible!I was so guilty for losing my temper at him earlier.I hope I'll always remember this lesson and hope never to repeat it.So,this morning when he behaved like that again,I did not lose my temper w him.I fed him some milk in the car and he was fine after that.Btw,he went back to his 3-hourly feeding pattern again!
