My Goal Post


No one was home when I arrived on Friday evening. Bb went out with Pil for some shopping. I strolled alone in the garden and found newly build goal post with raffia string as net in red, blue and green. Not bad eh? It was a joint effort from Sri and Suktei(mil Cambodian maid) for the little one. Thanks to the soccer craze in this recent month, bb also got himself a new target whenever he tries to kick a ball. There is no bb there to capture any professional player in action except a lonesome ball in the warm evening sun.

I took some snapshots of the garden bb plays in daily and an egg carton creation(Human Head). It was an art direction from mother in law to Sri. She saw a kid cutting cartons out to form various characters in her massage parlour. For this, I must say a big thank you to her for doing such great job taking care of my kid without any reward. Without her and fil’s support, hubby and I would not be so at ease like what we are now. Why so touchy feely one??? No idea….

Saturday ...
Argument with hubby at home. No lunch for him, no lunch for Sri. Only cook for bb. Kekeke…don’t step on my tail or He EAT HIMSELF.

Sunday...
Hubby disagree to continue sending bb to Gymboree as he thinks it’s a waste of money. *Duh* No idea what’s happening in his mind. I have no choice but to oblige. I am not giving up yet, am trying to persuade him again (hey hub, if u r reading this, any second chance???). However, he thinks it is not a waste of money to bring bb to Kidzsport. *Rolled eyes*

Oh ya, bb has been urging me to make him Jelly. There you go, a bowlful of Konnyaku Jelly stuffed with rambutan and pineapple. Recipe.




Ooo..I have started swimming again to keep myself fit. It was unfortunate that hub was beside me when an ex colleague commented I have put on some weight. Men, how I wish I could do that to him as well. He is FAT, how unfair, I have to work on my body and he does not. *bite teeth* I managed to swim 40 laps last week, gonna do it again this evening.

I thought gymboree has less things to play with? I'd been to the one in Bangsar and didn't find it interesting.

How nice to have FIL and MIL to look after BB.. and BB likes them too right? That's the most important thing.

geetha,
It was quite a good idea to set up something like that. He only plays in Mil's house with the 2 mates as his team members. :)

I am sure champion and lil president would love to hv bb as team players eh? haha! :)

Actually I dun think I am fat or big but well, it's a good way of staying fit.

michelle,
not at all. So sorry, I was in the rush to get out of the office yesterday, only managed to add in more pics this morning.

khong family,
Gymboree is a playschool with teachers guiding the whole play. Kids learn words and motor skills true playing.

Kidzsport is like a gigantic playground with lots of interesting equipments to play with. You are the teacher and carer.

NVM, can go jogging..:P

zara's mama,
The one in Bangsar village? Ya, it has less thing to play with but the way they make kids interact with equipment change to weekly theme is quite cool I think.

For instance they change slides and boxes to a stadium and ask all kids to sit and watch teacher play baseball. Later kids get to bet the ball themselves and run. A few words will be introduced in each class. Actually bb loves it. So I thought it's quite worth it.

ricket,
hehe...I was able to do 60 everyday. I do it slowly. Hope it can last long.

Hehe...no worries, my friend who was as skinny as me got labelled "Obese" in one of those fitness centre. So they are not accurate.

Don't worry about the `weight' issue. They are never pleased. Mine.......until today even with a haggard look and `look thinner', he still complains I have a wobbly tummy...and it's not entirely my fault after having 2 kids and it's partly his fault too! Again yes I am at fault for not exercising but what the heck a bit of compliment goes a long way in motivating in removing those `extra bits'. So don't worry.....as long as you can fit decently to a pair of jeans, be it! Age gracefully. :D
Nice blog. Will visit for more.

Dinner. Stranger.

LAST NIGHT was MIL’s birthday. We went for a simple dinner at Mt. Kiara, a Taiwanese restaurant. Bb was excited to be out as usual, trying to show off how to operate his Bob the Builder’s bottle to uncle Jo, Bil. He has been sipping water from that bottle ever since daddy purchased it, which is good, no more bottles in public. He also created rapport with waiter and waitresses there. There was a fat uncle got so fond of him and present-ed him a chopstick holder. (Like that also can. Hah!) Bb showed it to me, it was in the shape of a Japanese koi fish. I told him to return it to uncle, Sri told me he returned but uncle insisted he kept it. UR! Okay! “Well, then you can keep it” I told him. Later, he came to me telling he was scared. I asked him why, he told me the BIG BIG uncle scary. Actually according to Sri, that uncle wanted to carry him, he got scared. Mil told me this - Once a stranger offer to carry bb, he wanted to go with stranger, mil threatened him that if he goes, he will ne

Update

Gosh! He is still crying after 2 weeks. I spoke to my sister a couple of days ago telling her my concern over bb’s behaviour. When ask by daddy or mil whether he cries in school; bb’s answer is always “NO! I never cry”, uttered with confidence. In fact, he cries furiously when I drop him to school daily. His excuses before leaving with the teacher are either, “I want to go back or I want mommy or I want my kakak…”. Sis told me to boil an egg and keep it in his school bag; he will be okay in 2 weeks. Err…I have no idea why, it was a myth she heard from elder woman to soothes kids from crying to school. Has anyone heard of this tale before? Does it work was my immediate question to her. Well obviously, she said it worked for her 3rd child. I am very doubtful la but still I asked Sri to boiled one this morning for bb to bring to school. I am keeping my fingers cross. *counting- 1,2 3, 4, 5….eggs need to be boiled b4 he stops crying, wah, who is gonna eat those eggs???* Of late, I have bee
