just now at the balcony with zy sitting on my lap, i felt a sense of inner peace.

watching the rushing buses, cars, working men &women and children heading for school. zy and I enjoyed some quiet time together.

i have never felt so blessed.

when i woke up and saw zy in his bed, he looked at me and smiled so cheekily. And we talked. Those little baby talks and good conduct teachings from me. haha. Everytime he coos or squeals or babbling his own language, I follow suit. It's our little conversations and he seems to enjoy them alot alot alot.

had a root canal treatment last night coz my gums were swollen and painful. now i'm perfectly ok again. i realised the more you fear about something, the worse it becomes. I was not scared about the needles, numbness, swelling, pain, bleeding. I just slept and when I woke up, I'm already back to normal.

yesterday's painting class was great. It has been such a long time. Watching others enjoy painting is enjoyment to me as well. I hope to paint forever if i can. To encourage myself, i bought myself a paint equipment box with easel. I'm SO HAPPY.

SO HAPPY.

will join my other classmates for a nude painting session soon.

& yeah, I got jw to buy me a espirit sunglasses for valentines. my style. chic.
thanks dar!*

feel like going for a swim now.

later will be pineapple tarts baing session.

yummy yummy.=)

HAPPY 3rd Month, Zhuo Yan!=)

Recently zy has been showing his true colors! Well, we have brought him out with us every other day, be it shopping, hair cut, meals out etc. Most of the time he is well behaved but there are times he threw tantrums. jw and I had a hard time pacifying him and carrying him around till our arms ached.

Now that zy has so much curiosity everywhere he goes, he hates to be carried in the baby way. Must carry him with him facing out so that he can look and supervise his surroundings! Looks like I don't have to hit the gym anymore hahaha. Imagine carrying a 7+kg big boy for 1-2hrs plus all the walking and rocking. Argh!

anyway, we are happy with our lives now.=) Although sometimes I get kinda fed up with zy's tantrums, the moment i see him smile cheekily at me, my heart melts immediately! And jw has been a good father(though sometimes lazy) to zy and a nice bf to me. No matter how tired he is, he will try to take over when he is back and be as loving as he can.

yeah, now jw and I don't spend alot couple time together but to us, it's the quality and not the quantity. Coffee breaks, petrol pumping sessions, chatting over dinner... & lots more couple moments to come hopefully.=)

Our first movie night out, something we are looking forward to for this coming chinese new year! CJ7!

Going back to painting tomorrow!

Like what I always said, life gets better everyday.

jw just got a promotion and I'm so happy for him. Of course, happy for myself too coz the more I don't have to work! hahahahahaha! congrats to me too! well well, that doesnt mean I will become a full time SAHM cum housewife. It means that I have more liberty to do things I like!

oh yeah, we also changed our car. not upgrade but to cut cost. we got ourselves a super brand new second hand black mazda 3. Cool. Per month we pay less for instalments with the new car=more savings!

And lastly but most importantly, zy is growing happily and healthily. This morning's tummy down time, he surprised us by lifting his head and turning from left to right! Nowadays he keeps cooing and gurgling and squealing, so much of trying to talk.

I told jw, I think zy is gonna be a linguist when he grows up!=P

Naughty Zhuo Yan with his playmat.

He was only interested in posing for picture taking!

Should little ZY be a model for magazines?

Yeah there's a kind offer but we are thinking... just not sure how his pictures will be published and in what kind of articles...

my prized item from jw during our super nice shopping spree at suntec city.

i love to play with the toys vending machine. jw never understood why. he thinks it's a waste a money but to me, it's about making up for my lost childhood.

i never had a chance to play with the machines when i was younger. only my siblings did. so i was always standing by their side and watched how thrilled they were when they got the toy they aimed for.

yesterday i was soo happy. not only we had a great shopping time with zy being such a good boy, i got my most favourite red Melody without even praying hard. hahahaa!

anyway, my cheeky boy is soooooooo playful again!

He simply refused to lift his head up!

the toughest job in the world is being a mother.

lost my cool yesterday when zy was wailing and crying his lungs out. no matter how i coaxed or carried, he just screamed. i was so upset really. i was not sure what has happened to him and i cried. i was so stressed that my milk supply decreased so much so suddenly.

at that very moment, i regretted having a baby. i regretted being married.

the worst things and people to experience at work can never be compared to taking care of your child. meeting all his needs and giving him all the love you can ever imagine.

today, zy was all smiley again. he was super fasinated by the soccer lamp at his jiujiu's room that he laughed and laughed and laughed....

my precious little boy.

Life with zy has never been so happy and fulfilling. Sometimes I tell myself how blessed I am happily married to a great husband and now we have an adorable baby.

I used to think that having a successful career is all I needed. The kind of work satisfaction I yearned for. But now I think otherwise.

My pregnancy and now motherhood has changed me, my ideals, my perspectives, my whole life. Even though I still wish to work to satisfy my own ambitions, zy is the first to be on my mind for all considerations. Perhaps, having zy is a blessing in disguise for me to start a business, to do things i like?

Sometimes I wonder where zy came from.

Maybe he's angel from the sky...
