Tricia's First Tooth

Date:17 April 2012 (Tuesday)
Subject: Tricia's First Tooth
Tricia is 10 months 4 weeks old
Spotted by the grandma today, the top of a tiny pearly white tooth emerging on her gums!

We were super excited as Tricia is really a late teether. I almost thought she will go past her 1st birthday without a single tooth!
Same as Racia's first tooth(who got hers when she was 6 months old), this tooth is located on the lower front left side of Tricia's gums.

Its time to start training Tricia on proper oral hygiene practice i.e. brushing daily and after meals!

Cutting down my pump session

Date: 26 March 2012 (Monday)
Tricia is 10 months and 5 days old

Starting on Saturday, I have cut down one pump session in the afternoon. I used to pump at 6:30am, 11am, 4pm and 9:30pm. And now, its 6:30am, 1pm/2pm and 9pm.

With Tricia turning 10 months and solids, there is now a drop in her milk intake. I thought it is time I cut down my pump session at work.

I hope I will still have enought milk to let her on on TBF till she is 1 year old.

After dropping her bowl of noodles on the floor, BB1 says to me: "My hands were not careful! (She then sticks out her left hand) Ma ma, scold the hand!"

Racia's 5th Birthday - LearningKidz Party Packs

Subject: Party Bags for LearningKidz
Racia is 4 years, 11 months, 2 weeks and 5 days old


Its time to celebrate Racia's birthday again! She is 5 this year and the theme chosen (by her) this year is Tangled! Rapunzel.

As Rapunzel is Disney's newest princess, it is extremely difficult to source for Rapunzel themed party stuff in Singapore. As usual, I didn't realised that we are so close to her actual birth date, otherwise, it would have been so much easier to order from the states!

We will be celebrating her birthday in school on the 2nd March 2012 (Friday) at 3pm. She will get a 1kg Princess cake from Bangawan Solo (I will be ordering tonight) and i have also packed 14 goodies bag for her friends in school. (7 boys and 7 girls in total excluding Racia).

Here is a sneak peek at what I have prepared for the goodies bag for her friends.

Girls Princess Bag:
- 1 Hand-made Clippie (in Pink or Lime)
- 1 Barney Whistle
- 1 Lollipop
- 1 Kinder Bueno Choco Hippo
- 1 Smarties Fun Pack
- 1 mini Toblerone Chocolate

Boys Barney Bag:
- 1 Mickey and Friends Spiral Notepad
- 1 Barney Whistle
- 1 Lollipop
- 1 Kinder Bueno Choco Hippo
- 1 Smarties Fun Pack- 1 mini Toblerone Chocolate

Racia says ..... $13 is so expensive

Date: 22 Feb 2012 (Wednesday)
Racia is 4 years, 11months, 2 weeks 4 days old

I had an interesting conversation with Racia today

Me: Baby, mummy can't buy you things all the time.
Racia: Why?
Me: Because some things are expensive and mummy don't have enough money....
Racia: ok mummy, i will not ask for expensive things, like things that are $13, they are too expensive! Maybe we can buy things that are $1, $2, $3 or $4?
Me: Yes, we can buy cheaper things but we can't buy too many $4 items too because three $4 item will be about $13 too.
Racia: yes, $13 is too expensive! And we cannot buy more toys if not our house will have too many toys!

Its time I start teaching her monetary values of things!
