Firstly, stay in a Kampong House with 7 rooms, a huge dining hall, 2 kitchens, 2 toilets, 2 bathrooms and a large compound with fruit trees that drop their leaves daily which need to be swept and stray dogs that love to sleep and poo on your corridor. Then have 4 children or more. While you still have a 3mo baby with you plus 3 others at 6yo, 5,5yo and 3yo, send your helper away for a holiday. And go get yourself cut up; any parts of the body that will hinder your from doing straining work like mopping or washing or even carrying your 3mo baby.
Oh ya! I almost forgotten. Find a husband that comes home for 8 hours (to sleep!) everyday except on weekend.Felt like I am his 1st wife and his business is his 2nd wife which he spends most of his time with. 
Despite all of the above, the house and its compound is well maintained and the children gets all the attention they want from their mommy.

Hi Everyone, I am back and hear my whines again.
After 2 weeks staying at my parents’ house, I decided to come home last night. The house needs me or I should say, hubby needs me to wash and iron for him. 
I started doing some cleaning indoor but outdoor I leave it to hubby. I clean part by part and iron only 3 shirt at one time; that is the most I can go, on the 3rd shirt, the pain will come. Then I quickly go lie down to rest my tummy. The same with other chores; once I feel the pain, I leave everything and go lie down until the pain goes away. I am taking everything easy, not going to wake up at 4.30am again to start my day.
Thanks BIL for offering the maid back to us but your dear brother wants his wife to be a superwoman and his kids to be more independent. 
Time for bed now. I done more than I could today!
We have a newborn baby in the family. Check out my children’s blog for photos.
So I extended my stay at my parents’ house for another week so that I can hold the newborn as often as I could. I simply love newborns. They are so fragile, super cute and they are helpless. This first nephew of mine is so tiny and I just love the feeling of having this tiny lil felllow in my arms.
Actually, he is not the main reason I am still away from home. The reason is, the maid is not going to return until she goes home for her one month holiday; meaning she won’t be here for 2 months. My MIL wants to keep her there to accompany her. They are so blessed to have 2 maids in the house and I have none. 
And I can’t stay at home without doing any housework. If my children is here, I HAVE to keep the house clean and clean their mess. I tried that last Sunday (cooking and cleaning with no mopping) and I returned to my parents’ house in pain. To those that visited me, you know the house I am staying is quite big!
So, I decided for my own good, I better stay at my parents’ until I am healthy enough to “work”.
At this moment in time, I dare not plan for any family vacation yet. With the H1N1 Influenza, my health condition and our cars that are not fit for outstation traveling and inconsistent income, we will just stay at home until we bid farewell to year 2009. Kuching is good enough for this year. I would love to go to Riveria Maya and stay in Azul Beach Hotel Resort which offers families a new way to vacation. Parents are pampered with adult-sized indulgences as well as extras like strollers, cribs, baby milk heaters, beach games, coloring books, refrigerators for milk and medicines, and even kid-sized bathrobes. But that have to wait till next year if we have the means to go there.
