Closing 2012

Has it only been 4 months since Chiangmai? I feel like I need another holiday (since the moment we got back actually) but don’t we always need a holiday? =P 2012 has been a totally productive year in terms of work. Twelve Cupcakes expanded in a major way this year -from 3 outlets last year to » Read More

The Chiangmai Weekend

If you read my last entry — I mentioned wanting to try the baby leash when we go to Chiangmai. Well, turns out I forgot to bring the friendly monkey bag with the leash (I also touched on my forgetfulness my last post — it is REAL). Fortunately, we didn’t go anywhere crowded, not even the » Read More

Being Grown Up

I have a really bad memory and I can’t even blame motherhood — I’m sure you’ve heard some people blame forgetfulness on pregnancy. Oh wait, I’m not pregnant. Ok but I’m just trying to say that at no point in my life could I have blamed my forgetfulness on anything except my poor memory. Take the » Read More

Talk talk talk talk talk….

I told myself that I would NEVER tell Renee to stop talking because I was gushing over her when she said “ok” (at month 4 — we have video evidence!) and insisted that I will never tire of her voice. Now, I find myself wondering why I don’t read old entries more often (ie: http://www.maybebaby.sg/blog/2010/11/08/motherhood-is-a-lot-of-eating-my-own-words/) since » Read More

All Unpacked From Gold Coast

That’s right — we took a rather impromptu trip to Gold Coast last week because I felt like I we needed a holiday. We picked Gold Coast because I wanted to go someplace cool (it’s winter in Australia) and someplace easy to drive around (roads in Australia are generally not busy and easy to navigate). » Read More

Some Days Make Others Worth It

I think all parents know what I’m talking about. These are days when Renee is on her best behaviour the entire day. She says her Ps and Qs; she asks for things in a nice voice and is generally fun to be around. Even when she’s being bossy on these nice days, we are agreeable because she » Read More

Parenting Lesson #846

I’ve never been a fan of indoor play areas. The aversion is due to an article I read about a year plus ago, about how difficult it is to maintain a germ free environment in these places. Worst of all are the ball pens which draw little children like magnets. They are supposed to be » Read More

Doing Catch Up!

After a 6 month hiatus, I’m back! I was initially hesitant about doing a monthly entry because with a growing business and a growing toddler, finding time to write is a challenge. However I realised that just pictures (although they speak a thousand words) do not capture the moment for me the way writing about » Read More

Goodbye for now =)

Has it been a month since I last wrote? Time is just flying by! Between working out teething issues for both my new shop and Renee (her molars just came in), I also managed to catch the nasty flu bug that’s in the air. Yeah, I know — such an overachiever (er.., yes, that is » Read More

My Aw…. Moment

It is my second favourite time of the day — putting Renee to bed. (My favourite time of the day is when Renee wakes up in the morning and I watch her sleepy face slowly light up with a smile when she sees me =D). I like feeling her head on my shoulder when she is » Read More
