Birthday Staycations

Before moving on to the entry proper, I would like to invite you to join me for a minute’s silence. A friend’s ordeal has reminded me how painful it can be when you so desperately want kids, but nothing works. Worse still, something seems to work, but it turns out to be a cruel joke by » Read More

Care In A Bag

Before I had a baby, I was always at a loss for ideas when it came to getting gifts to congratulate the new parents. More often than not, I ended up getting an item for the baby, which always turned out to be something cute but not particularly useful, like a nice onesie or cute » Read More

Highs and Lows

In a span of 3 days, I’ve managed to experience two totally extreme ends of the emotional spectrum of motherhood! I’ll start with the horrible one. Just yesterday, I had the most awful accident with Cristan. I’m still recovering from the shock and trauma, and am sharing this in a pretty vulnerable state. PLEASE DO NOT » Read More

Could it possibly be…?

In the last week or so, I’d been feeling rather ravenous pretty often. I would wolf down a huge meal, much more than I usually ate, only to be struck by hunger pangs again, an hour or two later! This got Tim and I a little concerned. You see, an unusually large and ridiculous appetite, together » Read More

Dan and I took a short vacation without the baby during the first week of November. Together with another couple, we spent a lazy four days in Krabi just relaxing by the resort’s infinity pool, beer-ing (as opposed to wining) and dining, exploring the seaside town of Ao Nang, catching up on sleep and simply » Read More

Happy 5 months @ 11-11-11!

My darling boy turns 5 months old today! What a wonderful day to celebrate, on 11-11-11! To commemorate this occasion, I gave Cristan his first soft toy! It was a gift from a nice friend, but I waited till Cristan was just a little older before letting him have it. Meanwhile, the doggie had been spending » Read More
