This is my first time having my hair braided/plaited the French style. My helper braided it for me. After seeing how neat she French braided my 2nd daughter’s hair, I got her to do mine. It was so tight that I feel my face was really stretched up. Kinda good right? Killing 2 birds with one stone. I got a neat braided hair and also a face lift! 
Next, I’ll get her to bun up my hair. 
Time really flies. As I am typing this, my 5th child is more than 5 months old. In less than a month time, I’ll start her on solid food. We will start with fruits puree first then slowly to veggie with organic millet. No meat or fish till she is over 8 months old. I want to raise another veggie lover in my family; just like my 4th child. 
I introduced the walker to all my children at 5 months old because I want them to get use to it and sit upright by the time they reach 6 months old. I prefer to feed them when they are sitting upright and not lying down in a bouncing net or baby car seat. I will also teach them to drink from the bottle with straw. Since she is still breastfeeding and I am lazy to spoon feed her water and I don’t intend to introduce the puting to her, drinking using straw is the best way to get more liquid into her body.
I know some doctors don’t encourage letting our babies sit in a walker but it is the most convenient and hygienic way for my children to grow up. I live in a kampung house remember? And it is difficult to keep my floor squeaky clean especially with 4 other small children, 9 puppies (2 puppies given away) and a maid that sometimes walk barefoot outdoor and then comes inside the house without washing her feet, so does my younger ones!

No one ever told me how expensive getting old is! First of all, all the regular doctors appointment I have to keep up with are pretty pricey, and on top of all that, the prescriptions added up even further. I recently determined that it is time to look into hearing aids since I wasn’t hearing my wife as well this website, http://hearingaids.miracle-ear.com/hearing_aid_prices.html, where to try to find a good deal. Our active adult community was pretty much bleeding me dry already in since she and I both hope to stay retired, saving money where we can is the best solution. It’s obviously really nice to have all the time in the world and to be able to go see the kids whenever we feel like it. I’m not sure they love our random unannounced visit, but that’s all part of being an adult! My doctor says I’m nearly as healthy as a horse and I’ve probably got decades left to live… Let’s hope that’s not true, because I’ll never be able to afford it!
3 days ago a baby civet cat (musang pandan) came into our house. All this while we only hear them running on our roof chasing after rats. I guess that day this baby civet cat got scared when the coconut plucker plucks the coconut and disturbed his home. After coming into our house, the civet cat couldn’t find the way out. The civet cat ended up in my bedroom and almost cause my xbox slim to drop on the floor. Hubby managed to catch it with a fishing net. Unfortunately, hubby’s finger got bitten by the civet cat when trying to grab hold of it.
Hubby managed to transfer the civet cat from the fishing net to a big plastic bag then into a cage. One of my SILs told us that a restaurant might want to buy it. After a phone call, the restaurant chef didn’t want a baby civet cat. I posted about it on FB and a friend is interested in it; he wants to cook herbal soup with the civet cat!
The next morning, the civet cat was no longer in the cage. It escaped through another door which we did not notice. The door was close but not lock. Well, not his fate to end up in someone’s bowl of herbal soup. I did tell hubby to let it go but hubby worried that the civet cat will eat our puppies. I hope he won’t.
It is ok to forget anniversaries but it is not ok to forget your own flesh and blood birthday. I was very upset for forgetting my first born son’s birthday. Thank God he is a very understanding boy. He even told me that since it is his birthday, he is not angry at me for forgetting his birthday. In his own words, “Mommy, I cannot get angry on my birthday.” Throughout the day, when I lost my temper, he will remind me this, “Mommy, today is my birthday, you cannot get angry at me also.”
A few things happened a week before his birthday that took my mind away from remembering his birthday. First, I got mastitis. That got me worried sick coz I do not want to go under the knife again to remove the puss. There was fever for a few days, swollen breast, headaches and backache. I am not completely healed yet, my MIL was admitted to the hospital due to appendicitis and a day after that, one of my nieces got admitted to the hospital to get her nose bridge stitch by a plastic surgeon due to a fall. After each trip to the hospital, I fell sick again. I figured that my immune system is not strong enough to shield all those viruses that are floating around in the hospitals.
On the day that my MIL got discharged from the hospital, hubby came home wishing his son, “Happy Birthday”. I was busy helping one of my SILs in the kitchen preparing lunch. I was baffled. “Really arh? Today is his birthday meh? Today is June 12? OMG! I totally forgotten that today is his birthday.” I left the kitchen, brought my 5yo son along with me to buy a birthday cake for him. That is the least I can do for forgetting his birthday. I actually planned to have a birthday party for him months before his birthday. Sadly, when the day come, I did not buy any cheap gifts and gift baskets also.
To compensate my forgetfulness, we brought him to McD for dinner that night and the next day, we brought him shopping to pick toys of his choice.
I have enough of having just enough every month and sometimes, not enough. I want to be rich. Can someone teach me how to be rich? To start with, I have none. I do have saving but it is only RM500 and I don’t have extras to top that savings account every month. You need money to make more money. I am sure Missoula, MT wealth management group will say the same too. It is kind of impossible for me to be rich coz I am a SAHM. I don’t even buy lottery. One thing that I notice in those rich people is that they are very stingy. Even one cent counts. Maybe I should try this method in my quest to be rich. Save as much as I could with the little that I have.
How to de-stress the girlish way? I’m sure all of you know the answer without me needing to tell you. Yup! C.R.Y.
And I just did that yesterday. I am not ashamed to tell the www. I am no superwoman or supermom. I am just an ordinary person living life. I tried doing the breathing in and out thingy to cool down but it did not help in my situation.
Imagine having 5 children aged 8, 6.5, 5, 2 and a 5mo baby. The baby is crying for milk and sleep. The 6.5yo trying very hard to keep the 5mo baby from crying. The 8yo was too engross with her book. The 5yo accidentally spilled his Barley drink. The 2yo accidentally spilled his barley drink and the barley beans all over the floor. Next the Mommy who just came out from the bathroom saw her 2yo shaking his cloth nappy to get rid of his poo poo. The poo poo dropped on the floor on a few spots. Told him to stay put but to no avail.
Floor in a mess, toddler needs to be washed and a screaming baby needs milk. This is easy peasy when the Mommy is not sick. Unfortunately all this happened when the Mommy is still in pain due to mastitis, still feverish and having a bad backache; she can’t even bend down to lift up her 6.75kg 5mo baby.
After cleaning her toddler, instructed the 3 older kids to clean up the floor and while breastfeeding her 5mo, she breathed in and out but it did not release the stress that has built up. She cried. She felt so much better after that.
The hubby came home to a peaceful home. Today, the maid is with the Mommy almost the whole day and everything went about smoothly. Why lar trials come when she is all by myself with her 5 children?
My hubby loves watching Korean drama because of their pretty and sweet actresses. Recently, he got me to join him watching Baby Faced Beauty on Direct TV that made me all emotional and softy. I cried so much watching Episode 11. I got hooked to it due to the suspense and drama. Now, I am a Korean drama addict too! I can’t wait for Episode 12. 
When I am too engrossed watching the Korean drama, even my children’s call I can’t hear. This is dangerous eh. What if someone breaks into the house while I’m watching the Korean drama? What if someone kidnap my children during that time too? I better call the home security sierravista to check their home security system package. I can watch my favorite Korean drama with a peace of mind that my home and my children is safe.
Our streets are no longer safe especially in KL. Lately there are a few incidents whereby pedestrians were splashed with acid. And they do it at randomly. These people are really sick. They find pleasure in hurting others. Until today, the police still can’t catch the culprit. Then there is this snatch thief. A few victims died and some badly hurt due to the hard fall after their bag is being snatch by the snatch thief who rode on a motorbike. But who can they claim for their personal injury? I am not sure whether Austin Personal Injury Lawyer at O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath – Personal Injury Lawyers – 808 West Avenue, Austin, TX. 78701 – 512-494-9949 can help in this matter. I read that they are experts in personal injury and auto accident law.
Can anyone survive when their appendix ruptured? From what I heard from the people around me, many died hours after their appendix ruptured. One of my mom’s neighbours who was also our close relative died when her appendix ruptured during surgery. Praise God the same did not happened to my MIL.
She complained of severe pain on her abdomen early this morning and we admitted her to the hospital. After CT scan was done around 12noon, the doctor told us that her appendix has ruptured. Thank God the surgery went well and she is still alive and kicking recuperating in the ward now. Thank you to those who have prayed for her.
I was there at the hospital with my youngest baby, hubby, BIL n SIL to admit her. Cute babies always get attention from the young nurses in white nursing scrub tops. I think my baby likes the uniform that they bought from http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/. She kept smiling at them and wanted to grab their uniforms.
