Give them a chance...

Let your children's laughter and not the 'sensations' from the TV 
     fill your home...

Let them know the value of a real dollar 
     and not those collected from games...

Let your children explore the world and be fascinated at the colourful array of birds in the forest... 
     not the Angry Birds...

Give them a chance to explore and experience the true beauty and colours of Mother Nature... 
     not through your HD TV screen!

Grovia Trainers Giveaway


So you think it's easy?

Many people would think that having a second child would be easier as you would have the required experience in dealing with those 'innocent little monsters'... well, not exactly. For those of you who'd asked and for those of you who are wondering... here's my story

Right from pregnancy itself, my journey with a second child is what one would call different, compared to when I was expecting my first. With Arthur, pregnancy was bliss and I could work til the very last week before EDD. With Adrian, the Doctor ordered bed rest... that was only the beginning.

As we get to know him better, we realise our younger one not only looks different from his big brother... He is indeed very different in character, temperament, personal traits... 

Breastfeeding... was a bliss right from the star with Adrian, our little one... he even 'rewarded' us with the breast crawl. Hubby was certainly amazed. With his big brother, breastfeeding was literally a total struggle as we had to work out why his little walnut-sized tummy needs to be refilled every hour or so...

Babywearing... unlike Arthur who used to ask for it almost every day... he'd even point to the pouch, Adrian is indifferent to babywearing... similar to how I perceive a car is simply for transport and need not be made a statement of. To Adrian, it is OK if you put him in a carrier... or not. He doesn't mind. He doesn't have a preference. Having achieve toddlerhood, of course he'd prefer freedom of walking around etc... it's still OK to wear him when we are in crowded areas or when Momma needs extra hands... yes, he is indifferent and he somehow understands the functionality and practicality of the carriers.

Cloth Diapering... This is weird... I'd started Arthur on Cloth Diapers cos he had very bad rashes from disposables that cloth diapering seem to take care of. Yet, with little Adrian, it is cloth who made him feel uncomfortable. NO, we did not share their diapers... Adrian had his own brand new ones as a baby (though we did think of letting him have his big brother's share when he's older). That put us back to using disposables... that said, Adrian is the one who could tell us when he needs a poop since day 1...

Blogging again?

Having recently been invited to the Blogging Circle on Facebook... I am itching to blog again?

B.L.O.G.... to me, it is like a acronym for a disease. One that took my time away from my kids... one that I can be totally addicted to checking every minute of the day... if I let it... can I blog again without it 'letting' me get addicted again? I would like to give it another go.

Honestly, many a times, I have indeed attempted to delete this blog for good... then again, I saw that people still checks them out... so, perhaps... maybe... just keep it on for references sake... every now and then, I would still get emails on the topics I have posted... not bad, huh?

So, perhaps... let me try to have a go once again and see if this will work out again. But then again, what topics shall I talk about now???
