People's been saying that Mother's Day is getting overly commercialised and thus the day seems less meaningful and more of a day for flower and chocolate shops to make heaps of moolah..Well, this year is my first Mother's Day and what the heck, commercialised or not, I was happy to be a mommy and that I had people celebrating it for me. I know pple say that everyday should be a Mother's Day andI one needs not wait till this very day to show appreciation to moms. But, I'm definitely glad for this day coz it gives my hubby a reason to be exceptionally good to the mother of his son. It's not that he usually isn't caring as a hubby/father but more that in terms of distribution of son-caring labour on weekends and holidays, it's kinda unequal still. So, when there is an opportunity to take advantage of such a day where your status as a mother is recognised and valued more than other days, why not!!
So..thank you dear hubby for the wonderful dinner last night and for letting me sleep through the morning and helping to feed/care for Aidan yesterday night and this morning.. , without coming to me when he pooped/peed or stuck his fingers down his throat which caused him to gurgle & choke. I know it meant that you had less zz time and lesser aliens to annihilate but I'm sure you had a great bonding session with Aidan hehe..
Slept the whole morning [alone] and part of the early afternoon with Aidan..I guess all those late nights reading LJ has caught up with me finally and I'm aching like crazy and having headaches.
We realised that Aidan's always an angel whenever we bring him out. When he took the taxi with me [to meet hubby at the hair-salon where he was gettin a trim], he was so gwai sitting on my lap, looking at the scenery and making cute li' cooing sounds. The only time he sorta growled was when the traffic light took a while to turn green coz he was probably bored with the same scenery..when the taxi driver moved on, he was happy again. He.flirted with Gigi, hubby's hairstylist at the salon, sat quietly wiith us while we sipped on iced chocolate n latte at a coffee joint, promptly slept in the carseat when the car moved on..and remained sleeping durin the start of our dinner so that we could tuck in our gruel and woke up on cue during his feed time...Can't help loving this li' bugger so much [now, if only he was always that gwai at home hehe..but I guess I shouldn't ask too much of him].
Mommy & Baby
The Lee family at (of all places to take a pix hehe) Supercuts!
That's Gigi, hubby's hairstylist who's this really cool chick..
Gigi has been cutting hubby's hair since he was in JC. Shesaid she'd practically seen him grew up..from a skinny li' boy to the bwee daddy that he is today :)
Havin coffee..The prince got to sit on a chair all by himself ....
Finally, smiling for the camera while his drool continued to flow..
A not-too happy Aidan coz he had to share the seat with me ..
The 3 mummies at the restaurant..That's Jess, my sis-in-law with her son, Chern Ern, my mom-in-law carrying Aidan
We went to Kublai Khan, this mongolian restaurant..we chose quantity over quality [dad-in-law picked the restaurant] since it was a buffet style place serving run of the mill food..

kublai khan is the one at park mall right? yummy. am sure u had a fun day, can look forward to many more mother's days to come!
May resume that soon [will tell hubby walking's good for losing weight hehe]..
Yeah..KK is the one at parkmall..the food there was so-so only. Guess there were jus too many pple so the good food like the sashimi/tempura were snapped up immediately so had to wait a while for it to be refilled..
But the armchair was kinda big tho. Was surprised that he managed to stay upright for so long :D
Yeah..he is still very tiny..that's what I always tell people. He looks bigger in my arms coz I'm small sized too but next to my hubby, he's miniscule~
Heh..mummy definitely wanna look good on Mummy's Day :D..
Noticed that he always clenches his fist.. Do all babies do that?
I guess I dun notice it coz he's always grabbing my hair, sucking his fingers and throwing away the hanky which I'd stuffed into his shirt collar..
Hey, juz wanna comment that Aidan look so "ta-ren" in the 5th pix where he's sitting alone in that sofa ... so much like a toddler - so Aidan has really grown ...
How's the feeding of solid coming along?
His poo shld be more solid & no more watery. Ryan loves
his cereal, & his poo is like plasticine - not sure good or bad, will check with PD.
Ryan's mum Rachel
His poo is still a li' watery but the good thing is the frequency has lessened. Now, at most, he poops twice a day *phew*..
I think it's normal for a baby's poo to become harder, esp with a change in diet to solids. Sometimes, baby's may get constipation becuz of it too so u just have to monitor Ryan..
and your mother-in-law looks young hor.
She's 60 this year u know :)
I hope I can look as good as her at 60!
ya..he does like like a li' adult :)
Coz my fringe too heavy so mus tilt that way to let it outta my face :P~
U hv long fringe too so u should know, tho i guess u usually tie up ur hair *grin*
