The Apple's Diary!

Haha.. I admit. I'm a little vain pot.  I was totally elated this morning to see my tummy almost gone.  Way to go!! Yeah!

Post birth update. 1. Dreadful Hair Loss Compared to last round, my hair fall is lessened. However, because of the dramatic hair loss within a short period, my hair thinned quite a lot. To nip the problem at the bud, I signed on a scalp treatment package which I still have another 3 more sessions to go. Also, I scrape off the idea of keeping my hair long for the time being. my latest bob There ain't a lot of short hair styles that go well with me. In fact, I am quite bored by the bob even though Grace tried to inject variation to it. Just hope all the serum and scalp treatment work and I can get to keep my hair long again. 2. Weight Loss Although I manage to cross the 50kg barrier, my weight has once again stagnant at 49kg. There was only a brief period where I dropped to 48kg. This brief period came about because I had high fever for 3 days that left me with very little appetite. my Sunday outfit for Church While the weight doesn't seem to go any ...

There's a saying about how the younger sibling tends to learn faster than the older one. I agreed. Matthew is a typical "monkey see, monkey do". At 7.5 months, he is learning to hold his own milk bottle after watching Jon. holding my own milk bottle But surprisingly, Matt has his first pearlies out the same time as Jon. So I guess physical development remains the same. my first pearlies

They are 15 months 3 weeks apart. Perhaps it is this close gap that Jonathan takes on Matthew very well. From the very first day Matt was born, Jon has been this wonderful big brother to him. We bought this orange tricycle for Jonathan because he always looked longingly when someone passed-by with one. Turned out, he didn't want to sit on it. He wanted to push Matt around in the tricycle. So one happily sit and the other push. Really love the moment when the 2 boys get together. Jon will sit and let Matt rummage through his hair or pull him. Matt will lie very close to Jon and laugh at every action Jon does. May this brotherly love last forever!

we found Matthew in this state ... not the most flattering scene, but this was really what had happened He wriggled himself out of his pajamas. Don't ask me how... because I also don't know.

Obolo from KatongI12 mango cheese cake balance of sweet and savory Been a long time since I savoured a delicious slice of cake. Yums!

His 1st pair of pre-walker, sandals and covered shoes His 1st toy - Lamaze Rattle Panda & Cushy Santa Claus His 1st Taggies Blanket These are all Jonathan's firsts. Very sad that I have to throw them out today because I don't have space for keepsake. Can only remember them in photos.

I hate my S4 very much! This will be my first and last android phone except for my non-camera iNo phone which I don't have much choice. I am going to dump this S4 as soon as iPhone 6 is here! For some unknown reason, all the pix in my blog magically and annoying appeared in the S4! Why?!! How come! I didn't even turn on bluetooth or sync anything! Really cannot believe that such thing can happen and the worst is I cannot delete all the 2000 over pix away! Really pissed. This makes me think that how my own pix can suddenly appear in someone's S4 without any warning. Then those pix I took with the S4 camera, it refused to download into my mac. When it does, it comes in triplicates! How clever lor... always do the extra things for me . ROAR! I don't know what is so good about large screen. It is not ergonomic at all. I can't do swift SMS typing without at the screen because it doesn't do auto correction. Instead I have to choose the word. No doubt it has pre...

After being a mother of 2, this has to be my lowest moments. Sometimes I do wish I could just be in a deep sleep and not wake up to face anything. Jonathan is like seeing the PD every other week, if not for running nose, it is for fever, then now he got eye infection. Each time he is sick, he can't attend school, it just means that I need to take leave from work. So it is like every week, I am taking a half day leave here, a day leave there. Then, I would start to wonder if I should just stop working and stay home and look after him. Yet, without a job, I couldn't provide him with the material comforts. My train of thought will wander even further and asking if material comforts are what he needs and wants. The constant dilemma and guilt of a working mother. Because Jon is older now, he is beginning to be more fun. He is starting to talk so it is funny how he responds to your question. I also guess because Jon is easier to take care, the husband has forgotten how tough ...

Decided to do a quick post as I normally don't have the energy to last until this late. Matthew and Jonathan had finally recovered fully. I am also so glad that the haze never come back again. When all is well, I breathe a thanksgiving to Heavenly Father. Just a quick snap shot of us when all is well. funny matthew with a new trick while waiting at PD's clinic Last Monday, I took leave again to bring Matt back to the PD as he was still having a rather bad phlegmy cough. Dr Yip assured me that Matt was on the recovery phrase so he need not be on nebulizer again. Thank God, Matt stopped coughing after 3 days. looking so grown up while mummy is taking a tea break At 6.5 month old, he is always wanting to stand and jump about. If you leave in a high chair or a tricycle, he could sit steadily. But if I leave him on the mattress, he would just slide down and roll and roll around. Ah... that's quite annoying cos' it means I have to always keep an...
