My Parenting Life

As usual, we will go shopping on Sunday (just window shopping) @ Gurney Plaza. Jo1 said that she wants Mc’D for dinner, she even mentioned that she likes the “BURGER” there very much. Mummy and daddy got no choice ….

On my way there, mummy is SMART enough to buy some sushi. (Unlike other kids, my Jo1 don’t like Mc’D’s food; it’s rare, I know and save mummy lots of money too).

At Mc’D, after ordered the food, all set to start our dinner, Jo1 said she is full-liao after 1 bite on the burger …..so how??? We got no choice, but to let her eat the sushi that I bought just now.

Jo1 finished 4 sushi in less than 10 minutes (normally it take hours for her to finish her rice @ home) and I also notice that there’s onw uncle looking at her, probably it’s his first time to see a kid eating sushi @ Mc’D while the papa & mummy eat burger and fries and soft drinks……ha ha ha

It’s was one sunny Sunday when I decided to bring Jo1 & Jo2 to swim @PSC I was looking after Jo2 while Jo1 swimming in the baby pool. Suddenly I heard someone calling “Joshua, Joshua…..,” I turned my head around then realized that someone is calling out his son’s name and not my little boy. The boy is about 10 years old.

Later, the same lady called “Jolene, Jolene…,” so I turned to her again but she was looking to the other direction. Funny ah I told myself, her little girl aged about 5 years old is actually has the same name as my Jo1 while elder son has the same name as my Jo2. (probably different spelling)

Jo1’s real name = Jolene

Jo2’s real name = Joshua

Still, I will continue to use Jo1 and Jo2 in this blog for my own typing convenient.

Yoohoo!! I have something to shout about. I lost 3 kg since Monday. Actually I just want to share something that I personally tested and really take effect. Here’s the recipe:

Day1 Breakfast – Pineapple (hint: drink warm water first)
Lunch – Papaya
Dinner – Pineapple

Day2 Breakfast – Watermelon
Lunch – Watermelon
Dinner – Watermelon

Day3 Breakfast – Prune
Lunch – Strawberry
Dinner – Salad (green vegetables) / bakes potato

Day4 Breakfast – Grape
Lunch – Grape
Dinner – Grape

Note: there’s not limit on intake amount. Take as many as you want, no hunger…
I think it’s good for health to eat like this once a while to clear our stomach. This is the first time I tried and I think it’s not difficult as seen and the greatest thing is I manage to lost 3 kg!!!
To be honest, I followed all these except I had 8-course dinner on the 2nd day, and I changed 2nd day’s breastfast to honeydew instead of eating watermelon the whole day!!!

Went to Taiping (MIL place) last Sunday. Too bad, no more Sunday family outing since Taiping is a boring place to me, nothing much to explore except “keep” myself inside the house.

In the afternoon, we have a visitor, she is our neighbor (2 blocks from my MIL’s house), in her mid 60’s who “eat full nothing to do” type of auntie. As usual, she come and chit chat with my MIL, while me as a good DIL just sit a side and hear their conversation while feeding Jo2 porridge. Half an hour later, she walked near me and whispering to me. To my surprise, she told me that -
Auntie: “you have to watch out your maid, she is not doing her job well….bla..bla..bla”
Mama2jojo: “Why?”
Auntie: “I see that your clothes not white enough, it’s not clean, your maid didn’t wash it properly.”
Mama2jojo: “Ahhhhh!!!” (I was stunt and keep silent, no reply, coz don’t know what to say)

After she is gone, I asked papa2jojo….
Mama2jojo: “Can u tell me what’s the color of my T/shirt?”
Papa2jojo: “It’s grey-la”
Mama2jojo: “Guess what, just now that auntie said my t/shirt is not clean.

Actually, it’s no big deal if other people say this to me, but not her, coz she is the very action type of people who like to show off, and treat her maid like “slave”.

Don’t expect me to scold my maid day and night just like her. No way……I think it’s not worth it.

Additional good news:

1. My sis#3 is expecting a baby boy Jan’06. According to the doc, the baby might come out earlier than the EDD base on the growth size. My sis is putting on weight so does the baby, the doc is afraid that my sis will have complication if the baby’s size is too big. This is their 1st baby. I think my BIL#3 is happy to have a son for their first baby.

2. My sis#2 is also pregnant. Her EDD is in Apr’06, and she is still in her 1st trimester. She has 2 boys aged 5 and 3. I notice that she has no sign of nausea, so I think this time is a baby girl (base on my 6 sense also my past experience….heeeheee). No doubt, the journey of pregnancy of baby girl is easy as compared to boy. No vomit, no morning sickness, good appetite, no insomnia…etc

3. One more pregnancy news, it’s my BIL#2’s youngest brother. He married a Japanses girl, and they stayed in US, they have been married for about 3 years, her wife just tested and confirm she is pregnant 2 days ago.

3. Just received call from Jo1’s principal that she changed the date and place of her concert to 6 Nov, which means my MIL can come for the concert then, since her trip to China is on 10 Nov. She must be very proud that her grandaughter will have a poem recital and performing dancing.

Life is great with good news and enjoyment…of course with kids too!!
