Here is one of my all time favourite Christmas Song, enjoy :D

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

Thank you Hubby for a wonderful Christmas Lunch and thank Pa, Ma & Sis for coming

.
Best part of Christmas... Presents!


Baby Dhiren 1st Christmas.

Baby Achieve A Milestone: First Taste of Semisolid

Baby Dhiren has his first taste of semi solid. Daddy fed him 2 teaspoon of very dilute Nestle Rice with breastmilk. Even though he is not 6 mths yet but we decided to let him try because he doesn't seem satisfied with just milk.

According to Hubby, it is a tradition to give Baby his first semi solid feeding using silverware, it's suppose to bring good luck.

A Review: Diaper Changing Rooms

Being a Mum, the first thing that I need to know when we go out with Baby Dhiren is, where is the Diaper Changing Room or the Nursing Room. As you know the condition of some of the mall toilets are not a pretty sight let alone the Diaper Changing Room.

I guess the basic should have in a Diaper Changing Room are countertop or fold down top, sink, rubbish bin and tissue. It will be a plus point if toy mobile, nursing or feeding section or even diapers are provided.

At Ikea
Ikea is very thoughtful, they even provide toys for toddler to keep
them occupied when mummy is feeding baby


At The Curve
The room is very spacious with 2 feeding sections, comfortable & clean.

At Bijou Cafe, Mont Kiara

This is a Baby Friendly cafe with limited but delicious menu, amazingly
yum yum cupcakes & other cakes and they even provide a diaper changing
station with branded diapers & wetwipes as well. Bravo!! Wish there is
more of this cafe out there...... if you know of any,
please please please let me know.


At Parkson, Pavilion


But to my surprise or even horror, some of the biggest, latest exclusive shopping malls don't even provide the most basic facilities!!!! If a mall can fully furnished the toilets, why not the Diaper Changing Room? We are so so disappointed.

Me with braces.

Been wearing braces for almost 2 years plus. I've decided to wear braces just before my wedding (don't ask me why, I don't know the answer myself.) But thank god, this is ceramic braces, which I heard is made famous by Tom Cruise. The braces is not too obvious when the wired is removed and transparent bands is used instead of the gray ones here.


A few Thousand Ringgit Smile

The metal was removed recently and my Hubby said, "Now, you don't poke the person next to you when you smile!" ...so bad :(

I Am A Zombie Mum

I have been losing sleep all this while with very little effect until now. My body response is super slow, after many months only now it sunk in. I've been going through my daily chores like a zombie.. and that is why no posting lately.

This Zombie Mum (which is me) has a heighten sense of sound. I can hear the slightest of 'eh' from Baby Dhiren. So at night I kept jumping up & disrupting my sleep because to attend to him but most of the time he was just turning, talking in his sleep or just farting...When motherhood turn Zombie Mum hearing to superhuman, fatherhood also turn Monster Dad (will explain later) hearing into super selective listening. He can sleep like a log through the night even Baby Dhiren screaming & crying! That is the most advance of all Superpowers.

The reason why my Hubby turn into a Monster Dad is because he snore like a monster. Nothing can stop him from snoring and that also contribute to my night insomnia. Sometimes I even need to do a karate chop on him to stop his snore (Is this consider to be spouse abuse?).

That's It! Can't take it anymore....so we got help from the pharmacy.

Item No. 1

Use as nasal spray suppose to keep the inside of the nose and throat moist so to prevent the noise of snoring but Hubby said it's feel like anaesthesia in the nose, horrible, horrible, horrible.


Item No. 2

To stick on the chin to prevent the mouth from opening so to stop snore but not effective at all for people who snore from the nose like Monster Dad here. So Hubby said might as well use this as a face mask or prevent wrinkle in the mouth area.

Back to square one, we are in a quest to look for the Nose Strip thingy which is out of stock in many pharmacy.....mmmhhh probably there are plenty of Monster Dad out there....To all the Zombie Mum hang on I am sure we can find a way to cure this
