My Boys

Once again, I can believe hw fast the time has passed. It's back to work again after 6 mths away.

Why does it still feels like a joke when i realize that I am now a mother of two? I still am not smart enough to answer the queries that will come from my boys, barely have enough patience to entertain the screams of a baby, and still squemish about poo and all yucky stuff. But here I am... Been there, done that, and doing it yet again (and again? And again? Lol!!) What is it about motherhood? The worries it brings you... If u're teaching them right? If you're feeding them right? If you're treating them right?

I'm addicted to my boys! They drive me to tears at times with their screams and demands, but leave them for half a day and I get lovesick.




Haryz, my love, is now 30 mths old. Soooo cute and mischievous! He is learning to talk and have started to form sentences in his daily converations. But, gosh, the things he says at time can make me tear with laughter!

Me: Haryz, tomorrow mummy work k. You must be a good boy and look after ur brother k?

Him: Ok

Me: You want me to bring home anything for you?

Him: Ah yes! Mi, Am, Air... Pos! (translate: mee, ayam and air. Mampos!)

Me: (in btw laughter, tries to be serious and tries to chide him, while realizing he had learnt this word from me!) Haryz cnt say that ok... No good!

Him: Pos! (complete with slapping head motion)

Mampos! Cute kan??!!

Being full of mischief means he often gets a smack on his bottom. For eg, it was my first day at work and I reached home tired and cranky due to a swollen breast. Mak was only cooking dinner. While watching me pump, Haryz was happily pouring water on my bedroom floor! Needless to say, he got a earful from me, complete with a flick on his ear. Now, screams and tears I can tahan. But definitely not the 'I'm so hurt u would do that to me' kinda look. It made me question myself if it was necessary to hit him at all. Haiyz... Parenting is no easy task man!



Khairul, my precious, is 4 month old! Boy he's one garang baby! Sleepy? Scream! Hungry? Scream! Scared? Scream! Btw me and Mak, we constantly have to take turns with him cos he needs to be entertained at all times!! But when he smiles.... I cam literally feel all my troubles fading away! I can feel all the knots in me untying and I'm melting away... Told my MIL that he will be the ultimate bad boy in school whom all the girls have a crush on. Heehee!! He's getting smarter now and has started to show a preference to BM instead of formula. His eyes follow me around the house as though saying 'play with me! Sit with me!' He likes to stand and screams whenever we try to put him in his rocker. He's got good head control as he's been lifting his head since birth and is now trying to flip. He's also shown interest in food and will look at us intently when we eat. I am still resisting it though, at least until we have the doctor's advice this Friday.

My dear readers, do u know that due to work and family commitments, this blog took me a whole 2 weeks to complete??!! But have to end here now cos my love's having fever and needs my TLC. Bubye!!!

Time

Time sure flies huh? It's alrd February and come the 22nd, it's back to work for me!

It's gonna be a bit worrisome leaving Mak at home to look after the 4 boys... But there's little we cam do about this. It will be a rush the first few weeks until each of us establish our routines.

Mak, I'm really grateful to have u doing this for us, although all of us agree it's a hugeeee task to accomplish. Thank for making it easier for me to go back to work, knowing my kids are well looked after. I love u Mak!

Me on the other hand, am so not looking forward to work. Work as usual will be very busy and I only worry about not being able to pump and having to work late. Haiyz... Why issit that working late has become a norm for all such that those who goes back on time is seen as underperformers? All these thoughts depresses me.. So I'm gonna stop here and sulk elsewhere. Till then...
