Just The 2 of Us

For the first time, I get to spend some quality time with Jayden, alone at home. Just the two of us. And I love it. Not that I don't like the company of others, but it is during times like this that two person can bond better. Bonding time, with Jayden. Hmmm ..

I get loads of bonding time alone with Ivan previously, as during the 2nd month of maternity leave, it was just Ivan and I during the day time. I get loads of smiles-for-me and laugh-for-the-great-time-together moments. With Jayden, I don't have much of those moments. He sleeps quite a lot during the first few months and only awake for a short while for milk. Other than that, it's just zzzzZZzzz for Jayden. Until today. *hehe*

Mil went back to Seremban for the day and I took leave to be with my sweetie pie. Simply awesome ! After being away for 3 days and 2 nights recently, (and with Jayden forgetting about me.. sob sob) I appreciate today alot. Needless to say, I get loads of smiles-for-me and laugh-for-the-great-time-together moments. Thank you, God ! Amen.

While I Was Away ...

I was away for 3 days and 2 nights last week for an event organised by the company. After enjoying 2 solid nights of sleep, I am finally back at home on Saturday afternoon. Hmm, home sweet home.

While I was away, Jef shared with me the stuffs I missed out.

On Thursday night, after bathing Ivan, and while Jef was drying him up, Ivan did this. With his left hand holding his left butt cheek and right hand holding his right butt cheek, he opens and closes his butt cheeks. He made his butt do the 'talking'. And Mr Butt says, "I love you !" to daddy. If you know Crayon Shin Chan, this is one of the favourite things he likes to do. Pull down his pants and do the buli-buli dance. Ivan didn't do the dance. He just said the 3 words to Jef with his naked butt and flipping ding ding. Jef burst out laughing loudly.

Later on, Jef went on to pack Ivan's bag for school on Friday. He gave Ivan some local delights he bought from Penang (like sak-kay-ma and tambun biscuit). Seeing the tambun biscuit, Ivan asked for one and daddy took one from the big box full of tambun biscuits. As usual, Ivan was being odd and insisted that he wants to have the one in his lunch box instead. Puzzled and annoyed, daddy switched one in the big box with the one in the lunch box, just to show Ivan that both are the same. "See, it's the same, Ivan". And Ivan said, "Your eyes and body, same or not?" Ivan didn't make much sense but enough to keep daddy quiet and speechless. Must be hilarious and if I was around, I will surely be laughing my ass off.

As for Jayden, he's laughing louder and talks more and turns over like a champion now. But, he kinds of forgotten about me. He can't remember me !!! *sob*sob* Guess I need to put a stack of my photographs at home and Jef will need to flash to him like flash cards whenever I am away.

2009 Concert

It's concert day again. This is the 2nd year Ivan performs and both years, he did very well. *ahem* which parent will not complement their own child? Haha ...

Anyway, here's my 'charming butterfly', flying all around, looking for honey. We took some pictures and there are two which left me speechless. He looks so much like Jeffrey now ! The same face features, the same hair style. Little Jeffrey ... *teehee* this is so adorable. :)

Turned Over !

Little Jayden is now on another level. He has turned over ! He has tried a few times and finally, tadaaaa! Now, he's turning over like a pro. Haha... 1, 2 voila ! Though I'm thrilled to see him progressing, I'm also a little worried. I caught him turning over several times, at night in his cot. I was afraid that he turned over and couldn't bring his face up. With his face down, he won't be able to breathe. *shivers* The Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SID). Hmm .. then I decided to watch and see what happens.

Last week, he turned over while sleeping and he ended up continuing with his sleep on his stomach. Face position was fine and he could breathe as usual. So, reckon that I'm probably worried for nothing. But well, better be safe than sorry.

F.I.V.E

Five. Spending only RM5 for each meal. Yeap, that's what I'm trying to achieve now, everyday for every meals when I'm at work.

This started off when my colleague and I were out having lunch and we asked for the bill. The bill was just RM 15.20. For the both of us. *nhuh? RM15.20?? There must be a mistake* We were quite surprised and double checked the bill cause we were pretty sure there's a mistake. The bill is correct. We left the shop feeling happy at how cheap the lunch was.

Cheap??

Thing is, we finally realised that we have been spending quite a lot on our meals, an average of RM15 per meal. Hmm, the last I checked, I didn't earn that much and that explains alot about me being poor. Geezzz ..

So ! So, I have decided to cut down on meals. :) The limit is just five. Haha, the result so far?
Day 1 : RM4.50
Day 2 : RM5.00 (nah, I didn't skip lunch. My generous client spent me lunch.)
Day 3 : RM2.50
Day 4 : RM8.20 (-RM3.20)
Day 5 : RM2.50

Not bad, huh? Imagine for a 20 working days and with an average of RM 15 per meal, I used to spend about RM300. And if I manage to stick to just RM5, I get to save RM200 ! Woweeee ... !!

I shared this idea of mine with hubby dear and with sympathetic look, he passed me a piece of chicken and said, "Here, you must be hungry. Eat more. Can I give you RM5 everyday to help?" Haha .. ! Thanks hubby, but that's not the point. If I get to save RM200, it's my achievement and I will be proud of myself.

What about you? How much did you spend for lunch just now? or yesterday?

Clean Desk Policy

I was so surprised to see this yesterday. This is Jef’s section and it has never been this clean and neat. Reminds of Clean Desk Policy at my workplace. This is much cleaner than that. Wow, I’m still in shock.

Well, now let’s see how long does this last. :P

P/S: “Anonymous” , how long do you think this will last?

Double

Seeing double? That's just Jayden and Moose, wearing the same shirt. :P


Here's double trouble ! Bet you can't tell the difference if not because of the clothes right? :P Both of them look so much alike as baby.
