zy has turned 8 months a couple of days ago.=)

One cheeky rascal. SEE his cutesy little tooth at his bottom gums?=P

-----------------------------------------------------------

Today we brought him for his first class in his life - "Mozart: The Child Prodigy" at the national museum. And to our amazement, zy was the youngest in the workshop! (Well well, of course I read that the class caters to 6 month olds to 6 year olds before I enrolled him). Anyway, he enjoyed the first part with music and guitar and singing until Mozart appeared and his interest plunged to zero. Guess Mozart did not look too good or handsome to him, with his white odd wig and weird dressing. Haha.

What zy enjoyed most was at the Murmurs playground where there was a pool of colorful playballs.

Frankly, it was not exactly a fantastic workshop. Could be better if children can learn more about musical instruments and not the life of Mozart. Who really cares about how Mozart lived during his time anyway?=P

I am planning to, perhaps, sign zy up for a play gym class so that he can learn to socialise with other babies of similar age. He really enjoys playing with kids but since he is still so young, not many children like to entertain him, especially those who are more than 2 year old. Maybe we can give him a younger sis or bro?=P

ANYWAY.

We experienced a SAGA last week. Our maid "ran away". Not that she eloped, but she requested to be sent back to her agency. -to be continued........- no mood to write about her now!

For the first time, I made a stationery case for myself.

I think jw's jaws dropped when he saw it coz he never knew his spoilt wifey can actually sew!=P

I did another pull string pouch and am planning to do a coin pouch later. I am getting a hang of sewing and stitching. Not that difficult afterall!=) What I enjoy most is mixing and choosing the fabrics and the creativity in coming up with ideas of the designs. Well well, I am still into creativity work. Haha.

Anyway, zy still surprises me everyday with his little actions and words. Now his rattles on "ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba..." non-stop everyday! And jw proudly claims that zy is calling him! Oh well. I told him it's just one of his new found words and there are more to come but he refuses to concur.

Okie OKie, zy calls "baba" first ya!=P

i really sleep alot these days. Morning part, i'll leave zy to jw's mum and i'll just zzz. Today i slept till 11am. Gosh.

these days, i am living my life like a taitai i think, except that i do not have a car to drive around and i do not go ou

t to shop or have high tea. But somehow, time seems to pass even faster than when i was working. Not sure if it is good or bad, but at least, i do not feel the unnecessary stress of life.

zy has been real cheeky as he grows up. I think he is the replica of jw. Really very cheeky. Sometimes, I cannot control but laugh out loud at his actions and expressions and the way he tries to get my attention. Haha.

Yesterday, he said "mamama" and reached out his hands, wanting to be hugged. My heart fluttered. Although I know he still does not say wat he means, I still feel so touched.

p/s: jw has been sweet. All along.

I ate calamari rings for the first time in so many years and I am feeling so guilty now (don't ask me why). I should not have eaten but I still did.

Recently I have been feeling kinda zombie. Recently means these few days. Other than busy with my work and zy, life seems to be in a daze. I guess I need to slow things down and relax. And reorganise my brain.

Anyway, zy is teething now. I am waiting eagerly to see his first tooth! Must be super cute. =) But he is a bit grouchy these days, always wanting to be carried. Oh, and I am "stimulating" him to crawl during playtime. I hope he can crawl soon!

Last Sunday was brother's birthday. 21st birthday. We had a nice simple dinner at the SAF yatch club. Recalling back to my 21st birthday (well, that was quite some time ago), we also had a cozy dinner at clarke quay while for sister's, we had a siglap road coffee club. All three of us chose not to have some big bashes but rather, family time. Our family has matured greatly over these years and all I can say is for the better and happier.

I have not been actively taking pictures of zy nowadays. SO, today I decided maybe I should take some pictures of his playtime moments and our little rascal was as enthusiastic as I was.

He actually posed for this picture! So naughty looking!! ARGH~

And he kept grabbing my camera to see what it is all about.

And took a picture of me. Half faced.

And I struggled with him to take his BIG head picture.

And then we "wrestled" because he threw away my camera!! Hahahaha!=D

Today I afternoon-napped for a record of almost 4 hours.

I think I must have concussed or fainted. I felt like I was in another world! IF the sky was to collapse when I was sleeping, I do not think I will even realise. This is how TIRED I was.

When I woke up, zy was sleeping in his rocker. & jw's mum told me that he was wide awake for 3 and half hours while I was sleeping. That's a record by him! **Well well, mother and son both broke records today.** Half hour later when he woke up, he smiled so sweetly at me and started talking to me, as if telling me what he had done just now. He babbled non stop and I was actually laughing and giggling at his expressions. So cute.

I'm dearing zy more everyday.

Last night, I thought about my life and how different my life is now with zy. If I am not married, my life will be just rushing, working, eating, going home, sleeping and then the whole vicious cycle starts again everyday. Life is not about the sickening cycle. Now that I am married and a mother, there are so much I look forward to everyday, be it just lying around with zy or bringing zy for a walk. Or going for a short walk with jw. I am happy with anything everything.

Life, life, life.

Our little piglet buttons down!
