All I really want now, is a normal week. I just want a weekend with no events and my usual 4-day work week. The past few weeks have really taken a toll on me. It's been like almost 5 weeks since I had a good weekend's rest.

First things have really picked up at the workfront. I no longer leave work at 6ish in the evening anymore. Gah. I really need ( Read more... )

I don't know if it's the year of the dragon or just cos I am at that life stage, recently, there's so much news about friends giving birth, getting pregnant, trying for a baby.

And I am feeling a baby-itch.

Suddenly, I start thinking to myself how nice it feels to be pregnant. And oh, the sweetness of brand new babies. I entertain thoughts of ( Read more... )

Pfft. It's been a while since I wrote anything. I have been exhausted these few days! And it's been a mad mad rush to get home after work everyday. Not that I am thaaaat busy at work. I just need to learn to be more efficient me thinks. How do other working mums do it?!

Ah well, it doesn't help that the LJ app doesn't save my drafts! I have tried ( Read more... )

Alright, done with raving abt the venue. Here's some other bits on the celebration :)

It's a rather small celebration cos both F and I decided we just wanted a small cosy one. We didn't want to stress ourselves out by organizing a big do since it's CNY week and I just headed back to work a few weeks ago! So we settled on having a guestlist of 30ish ( Read more... )

Since I started work 3 weeks ago, I've met with problems with my pump almost every week. And I actually was extremely lucky to be 'saved' each time by a fellow mummy at work. She's been most lovely to lend me pump parts that I forgot to bring or brought but not working. And I had been thinking of paying her kindness forward by buying some supplies ( Read more... )

Cos of some exigencies at work, I gotta be back in office today, which was supposed to be my off-day (boss was sweet to say I can take two days off next week instead of just the usual Wednesday off)!

And bcos Wednesdays are our grocery run days, I have totally run out of fresh supplies for the boy's food at home. So I decided to run to a nearby ( Read more... )

It's the first full weekend we had for ourselves in a very long time. Since getting married, we've always spent weekend dinners with our folks (sat with mine, sun with F's). But now that we have a kid and I am back at work, we decided we needed time for our lil family of three. So weekends are all on our own. Hurray I say! :)

This evening, we had a ( Read more... )

So Yay, I survived my first week back at work! Aside from the heartbreaking first day, when the lil one cried as I stepped off the car, I think I am enjoying being back in civilization :)

Day 1 didn't go very well actually. It was really hard to say goodbye to my boy. And come lunchtime when I went to the nursing room to pump, I realized that I didn ( Read more... )

Ah the year's coming to an end! I was just reading through my year-end post last year. I was just stepping into my third trimester of the pregnancy this time last year. And I actually didn't set any new year's resolution for the year. Phew. Becos I really didn't do much this year. It's just baby, baby, baby, baby and all about baby.

This year, F ( Read more... )
