Raise in salary

This morning my baby sitter requested for a raise of RM150. And it means that from RM600, I would need to pay RM750 from this month onward. Hmm, I guess it justify everything.

Firstly, everything increases in price, so it is reasonable and fair for her to ask for such raise. Secondly she is taking care of my 2 kids and I do not have any complains so far. Thirdly besides looking after my 5 months old Baby Jayden, every weekday she needs to pick my princess from her school, so I need to chip in some for her petrol. *wink*

So, I guess RM750 for taking care of 2 kids is reasonable. What do you think??

School issues again

This morning my princess shown her "kolian" face again. Plus the sneeze and cough. Which are real. I noticed her coughing and sneezing yesterday, and she woke up this morning with them. So she quietly told me that she did not want to go to school. And she show me by sneezing. Sigh!

Well, I allow her to be absent since she is not 100% well. And once I gave her my green light, she lighted up. And Big J? He was shaking his head and told me "You the one who permitted her to off today."

Well, with last Wednesday's absenteeism and Friday morning's drama, Princess Jan still continue with her "don't want to go to school" act but since she is really not 100% well, I would not want her to get worse if she gone to school today. And being a responsible parent, I would not want other children to get contacted with sickness.

Last week, her dad gave her "off day" without valid reason. But today, she is really flu and cough so it is a good reason not to bring her to school. If she did not recover by this evening, I would have to bring her to see doctor. Sigh! One by one. Baby Jay still recovering from his sickness and now, his big sister's turn. Headaches.

Ponteng

If there is anyone to be blamed, it would be Big J! He did not sent Princess to school on Wednesday. Reason? He was too lazy to sent her to school. He said he gave Princess Jan two choices; either go to school or rest at home. And been cheeky, you guess which option my daugther choose?

So, Big J gave Princess a break and followed her uncle and aunt to cafe. While I were away, the whole schedule gone hay-wired. Imagine if I am away for more than a week. Does that mean Princess Jan will be off for a week too?

So come this morning, Princess didn't want to go to school. Even after much persuasion and scolding from me, she still did not want to go to school. I gave up and since I need to go to work, I rushed out leaving her with her aunt. But thank god she finally decided to go to school 30 minutes after I left.

Princess is going to turn 4 in 3 months time. Terrible 3! I wonder what happens when she turns 4? For better or worse? I don't want to think about it for now.

It has been almost a month now. Princess Jan did not sleep with us in our bedroom. She sleeps with her aunt. Hmm, she is getting more stubborn as the day passed and have her own mindset and attitude. Been spoiled by the grandparents, uncle and aunties. Every time I scold her, she will run to her aunt or lock herself in the room. Sigh!

She knows better than you

One thing she is so good at is nagging! Sometimes I wonder who is the mother here!!

She will starts her sentences with "How many times do I have to tell you...." and "Do not do that again". She is getting long-winded too, keeps repeating her sentences till we told her to stop.

There was one time when her aunt brought her to have dinner at The Sugarbun. My SIL ordered the rice with broasted chicken and soft drink. She almost finished the rice and chicken. She drank few sips of soft drink. However when my SIL wanted to drink the soft drink, Princess Jan told her not to drink a lot. "Do not drink too much, aunt. It has sugar. You will died if you drink it". Her aunt almost fainted listening to her. Lol!

Don't know Mode

Maybe it is a transition, or maybe my little Princess is just plain lazy to answer questions. Children can be mischevous sometimes, and they just like to play jokes on adults.

My Princess Jan can act and talk like adult sometimes, but other days, she pretends she did not hear the questions or simply answer us "I don't know". I know she knows the answer, but she just answer me with "I don't know". Er, feel like slapping her butt for saying that.

Me: How was your first dancing class, Princess?
Princess: I don't know.
Me: What do you mean you don't know. What did you do?
Princess: I don't know.
Me: Alright. Did teacher teach you how to move your feet?
Princess: No. Teacher ask us to sit and roll the ball to friends.


Er, I wonder if she is in the right class??? Never mind, I try again next week when she goes to her 2nd dancing class.

First dancing class

My princess is going to have her dancing class this afternoon. I wonder whether she would be enjoying her first dancing class or not. I wish I could sneak out from work and take a glimpse of her in school......Hmm, I am sure soon she will become a ballerina and showing off her dancing skill to us at home.

I am very like it!

One of Princess Jan's speech errors that I find irritating. "I very like it, mummy", "I am very love you" etc. I know she is trying to say "I like it very much" or "I love you very much", but after I corrected her twice, she still cannot get rid of this grammar quirk.

I know that she is just a little kid and learning is a long journey for her. But a good start is the best. I would like her to use the correct grammar and pick up correctly.

Sucking job

Baby Jay is now 4 months plus baby. He is weighing around 7.4kg. Mummy is not strong enough to carry him around. Lol!!

He simply loves to put anything in his mouth and start sucking. From his blanket, fingers,toys to anything that he can grab. There were times when I caught him sucking his blanket till that part of the blanket was wet with his saliva. If I or Big J scolded him for sucking, he will just look at us with his big round eyes and laugh. Lol!!



He drools a lot lately, don't tell me he is teething that young??? Anyway, I started to give him a teething toy for him to bite. He does not enjoy taking his pacifier, so I do not force him. He does not need pacifier, so I thank god that I do not need to wean him on that. He is a good angel, but if he lies down too long, he will start to cry or scream, until you have no choice but to carry him. Sigh!!

Sister nags

She will nag her brother if he is noisy. "Don't make noise, Baby Jay". "Do not cry", or "Baby, you cannot do that".

This morning, I overheard her talking to her brother in the room. "Baby, do not put your hands into your mouth. Do not do that. I am angry with you". Then she walked away but few seconds later, she came to her brother and start to nag him again on hand sucking. Lol!

And when I try to feed Baby Jay his medicine, Princess Jan was asking Baby Jay to drink his medicine instead of throwing the medicine out. "You have to drink medicine, baby, then you get better". Yes, that is my kay-poh and know-it-all daughter.

My Princess Jan knows how to nag people. She will nag her dad to wake up every morning so she would not be late for school. She will nag me to give her milk. She will nag her brother if he makes too much noise while she watches tv. Irregardless of her nags, she loves her brother very much. She will check on him from time to time. Every morning, the first thing she does would be greeting her brother "Good morning".

Under the weather

Baby Jay has been sick earlier this week. I noticed that he coughed on Monday evening, and immediately we took him to see the paediatrician. Paediatrician could not find any problem with him but she gave us some cough/flu syrup just in case. His condition got worse on Tuesday evening when I picked him and Princess from the baby sitter’s house.

So, I gave him his medicine and he slept pretty well through the night. He did not drink his milk although he woke up twice. Maybe he was uncomfortable with the sneeze and flu, and hardly wanted to drink his milk. Fortunately by morning, he managed to finish up 3 Oz of milk.

The first night, Baby Jay making so much noise and stayed awake for almost 2 hours. So, you can imagine the next morning, I could not get up if not because of my alarm. I was weary the whole Wednesday in the office. Lol!

Baby Jay is still recovering from his sickness. Maybe it is the weather. Rainy and cold season. No one in the family or baby sitter is sick so wonder how he got the flu.

Crying?

I asked Princess Jan yesterday whether she cried on her first day in school. At first she said no, and then she changed her statement to "yes". When I asked her why she cried, she said she cried because she needs to go to toilet! Lol!

At first, she told me two of her friends cried in the class room and she did not cry. But when she needed to go to relieve herself, she cried. Probably new teacher. She is not used to the new class teacher so she did not dare to ask for permission. Poor girl. Other than that, she was doing fine on her first day.

New schedule

I got Princess Jan's communication book from her school this morning. They had orientation last Saturday but I did not attend since I could not take leave that day. I just noticed that her class starts from 8am to 1130am. And it means that Big J has to get up early to send the children every weekday. Lol!

I remember last year both EDP and P1 started at 830am while P2 and P3 started at 8am. I guess this year they standardised the hours. For the whole week, Princess Jan will have orientation and classes end earlier around 1030am, and next week, classes will be normal.

I must get Princess and Big J to sleep early from tonight onwards otherwise how to wake both up to be in time for school??

School re-opens

Yes, it is end of school holiday and Princess Jan will be attending her P1 tomorrow. Her uniform has been ironed and ready for her to wear tomorrow. I am taking half day off to accompany her on her first day of school. I wonder whether she is excited or not to go back to school after lay off for more than a month, but when I told her this evening that she need to rest earlier for school tomorrow, she replied me with an eager expression.

Princess Jan did not take his afternoon nap today, "kay-poh" with her aunty who busy spring cleaning the house. So she has an early evening. Hope everything is fine for her tomorrow......

A treat for the princess

Finally I have time to download the pictures and share with you........

A day before NY Eve ....More like a movie treat for Big J and I. It has been long long time since Big J and I went to cinema to catch a good movie. Since I were taking leave on 30 Dec, we decided to catch "Avatar' in the newly-opened MBO in The Spring.




Princess Jan enjoyed herself in The Spring as since she was back from Kapit, it was her first time there. The Christmas decoration was still up, so I managed to take few snaps of her with the decoration. When asked her which trees she want to take pictures with, she replied me "I want the big Christmas tree!".....

She didnt enjoyed the movie much as she kept telling me that the movie is not nice, scary etc. Oh well, so much of sci-fiction for her. I hope I can bring her to the next movie which is Alvin & The Chipmunks. I think she will enjoy that movie.


First day of 2010 ......While Big J and SIL were spring cleaning the house, I sneaked out with Princess Jan and Baby Jay with my family. Lol!

The grandparents missed Princess Jan after she gone for 1 month, so they brought us to Boulevard for window shopping. Supposed to go to The Spring, but after seeing the long queues into the basement, we decided to go to Boulevard instead. However, it took us about 30 minutes to find a parking bay. And my Baby Jay dozed off when we finally parked our car. Lol!!



They have a new superstore on the top floor with children playground. I did not tour around the superstore, but I promise myself I must make a trip next time we drop by. They have some interesting stalls there that sell home decorations which attracted my eyes. Anyway, we brought Princess to its playground, which is RM0.50 per entry for children only. Well, as usual, my princess played the slides, gone to the pool full with balls and did not want to follow us go back after been playing for more than 20 minutes. However, after much coaxing, she finally followed us to KFC. I guess after all those funs, she was hungry as she finished most of the fried chicken rice!! Lol!
