Testing out the new blogger app!!

Finally Blogger has it iphone application that allows me to blog n upload picture straight from my iphone. This is so cool and best of all, this is a free app.

Anyway, didn't really have too much to update, my life now does revolving alot around the twins althought I do try to lead a balanced lifestyle as much as possible.

I started my jogging routine and are available to meet up with friends during the weekdays. I guess i am not doing a bad job. Just that some overdue dinner date with some friends just did not happened and i am not the busy one.

And yes, i still managed to have my nails manicured!!

5 months of parenthood so far

The twins was 5 months old last Sunday, looking back at the 5 months, time really passes faster compare to the time when I was pregnant.
Probably becos my weekend are all burnt taking care of them. I have also learnt to adjust my weekend to enjoy their company, I used to wanting to go out every weekend from now enjoying staying home with them.

During the initiate weeks, I desperately wanting to sleep trained them to sleep thru the night but it did not turn out the way that I wanted. They still wake up once during the night for their milk, so I might have to wait a little longer before they are able to sleep thru. We have also made the decision to let the twins stay at my nanny place on weekdays and bring them back only on Friday night. We were worried about not spending enough time with them and them not recognizing us, however, we tried for a month and the arrangement worked out fine. We can rest better and we treasure the time with the twins better. And most important of all, they recognized us and want us as much as before. Of cos the are still cons, but we just have to focus on the pros for now.

Now, the twins are sleeping while I enjoy my moment of peace, tomorrow is another brand new week. Like what every parents told me, weekend is no longer a resting period, weekend is busier and tiring compared to weekdays....this is exactly true!!! Still, I love my babies.

Baby refuse to sleep

I was angry with my baby girl when she woke up at 1am wide awake and refused to sleep. She wasn't kicking up a big fuss' rather she was having super happy mood. She wants to play with us but just not the right time and I am already freaking tired and desperately wanted to sleep. I think I really quite lost it and beat her little thighs and hands couple of times. But she give me her wide smile and that kind of made me guilty for my action. She continue to stay awake all the way to 4am while I continue to pull my hair.

Thinking back, I agreed with Louis that it wasn't her fault that she is not sleeping and I Should have more patience with her. Baby, mummy love u!!

Reduze!!

It has been 4 months after I delivered the twins and I still have 6-7kg to drop. The weight seem to be stucking on me and refuse to shake off my fat body. Ok, I have not been really exercisig too. So, I have started myself on the dieting pills - Reduze.

I have tried the 2nd boxes and yet to see result, I am getting worried. Am i beyond help? Are the fat too fixed to my body and they are not going anywhere? I don't want to be the fat aunty and hate to still look pregnant after 4 months. I need to get rid of the fat and get into shape.

Sounds like heap of execuses, I am really very sleep deprived and the thought of waking up earlier on my free morning to exercise sounds worst than a nightmare to me. I am not advice to jog, so I wanted to do brisk walking and I have not moved my ass to start walking. The least that I did was to do hola exercise at home. I am so screwed....I know!! I will stop procastinating and start moving!! Pray for me...Please!!!

A realisation

I have a sudden realisation that there are certain people that just do not deserved any of my attention. Make use of them when needed, of cause not causing harm if possible but if harm is inevitable, then just too bad. Sounds horrible? This is what happened everyday around us.

With this, I have learnt to support and love my loved one, hopefully unconditionally. I am glad that I have such true and pure love around me that I feel blessed whenever I need the assurance.

Photo wall

Due to limited space in our place and the only place to put up our photo is on the wall. We started with our picture (me and louis) and with the twins arrival, we have started a new segment just for them.

I think at the rate that I am taking and printing their pictures, we need more wall space for their pictures man!!

Holiday starts now..

I took 2 weeks leave from work, partly because of the coming trip to Guang Zhou and I thought might as well take a few more days. I am now having coffee at Starbucks Orcard in the middle of the day while waiting for Louis, he is having his hair cut. This feel pretty good, I sent the twins over to my nanny this morning and will be picking them up in the evening, I still have half a day to myself.

Going for lunch soon....seeya!!!!

Space redesign

For those who have visited my place would know how small my apartment is and it is even smaller now that we have the twins. So, we have to redesign, rearrange, rethink how to maximize the small space that we have to accommodate our changing needs. The first to go is our super huge dinning table which I love so much. I am a person that believed in big dinning table that we can have get together dinner and everyone seated on the same table when I do host dinner. But now, I will have to make do with a smaller one and no gathering at my place for the next few years. We need the dinning area for the twins play pen.

The twins had also took up two of the bed rooms, their stuffs are everywhere and we hardly space for any other things. Not to mentioned our store room, it is filled with milk powder, diapers, wet wipes, hand me down clothes and toys. We need to buy containers to keep their littles toys and I can foresee that their items will just keep increasing and we have to keep giving up our space for them unless we manage to move to a bigger place.....hmmm when and where will that be???

First oversea trip in 2011

We booked our Guangzhou holiday in Jan 2011 and time flies, we will be departing for the trip on the coming Wednesday. I am excited for the trip, I am looking forwards to the shopping and eating and massage. Although I know this is a long waited holiday, I will still probably missed the twins quite a bit but I will survived.

Will see how we fair after this holiday and if we are doing good ( the twins, nanny and us), we should be able to plan for short trip. We want to try bringing them to Perth, that will be our target for next year!! Uncle Christian and Uncle MC, be ready for our visit, ok!!

Babies jab

The twins had their first 5-in-1 jab today. As expected they had a good cried but didn't last too long, they behaved pretty well. Based on Sincere weight and height, his size is above average and he will be a tall boy when he grows up. Righteous is average little girl, she will not be very tall but just nice.

Doctor did an assessment on their growth progress too. Ah girl is went ahead of ah boy, doctor gave her an excellent status while ah boy need a second assessment in 1 month time. Nothing to be alert or concern, boy do developed slower than girl. However, doctor did said ah girl development is pretty advancement for her age...:)

Now that they are bigger, I do missed them when I don't get to see them daily. They are my little darling that melt my heart when they smile at me happily. We are going to GuangZhou for holiday in a few more days, am sure I will miss them but will learn to let go so that I can plan more holiday. Am grateful once again that I have a trusted nanny that I can leave them to when I need to getaway.

I survived my 1st month

it has been 1 month or rather 5 weeks back at work and we have kick start the arrangement of bringing the twins back daily except for the 2 days that Louis works late. Frankly, my mental engine took a while to operate at a optimum capacity. During the initiate weeks, I do have problem catching up on emails and the working pace. Probably due to lack of sleep, it seem to be tough to have a full concentration. Fortunately, it does gets better as the days progress.

The twins just crossed 3 months old. They are getting more active and fun to be with. Bringing them home daily does help to bond the relationship but they are also demanding little creatures. Feeding time has been most challenging with their changing mood. Sometime, they refuse to finish their milk and when I tried feeding them again, they will vomit out. It happened for both the boy and girl.

IPad 2

IPad 2 is totally cool and what more than cool is we got it as our award for our long service...which mean it is almost free!!! Have been busy setting up the iPad and downloading kid application. With iPad, the screen for iPhone just look so tiny.
