No, my toddler does not know her colours
Hmmm…I just read off the AsiaParents list that someone is very worried coz his 14mth old is not able to tell his colours apart! And that the child is more interested in playing! Wow! I would have thought that if I had a child who was interested in colours, shapes it was a bonus. And […] Read more…
The Blame Game

And how was your reunion dinner?
I certainly hope it was more enjoyable than mine! Mil doesn’t cook nowadays so our reunion dinnerĀ was held at an old coffee- shop-cum-old-style-Chinese restaurant at Geylang!

Diary of Pregnancy #7 – How can it be so far and near at the same time?
While moaning to myself (ya, I am trying to limit my moaning to myself now – aren’t you glad? :)) about how far March seems to be and how I have to endure 7 more weeks of being pregnant at the minimum (since I tend to go over my EDD), it suddenly dawned upon me […] Read more…
Sling or Stroller?
For me, both are important! Please don’t ask me to choose as both have their advantages, depending on the situation I am in. I only discovered the sling when I had Child #2. And I have loved it since then. It meant that I could carry the baby and hold on to the toddler’s hand […] Read more…
