Hello Evan!! Happy birthday to you :)

The cousins are ready to meet Evan at the hospital today!


Evan, our newest addition to the family and future rockstar. Congratulations to Hazel and WS!


Very very cute!!
来来来 让我抱抱你


The children can't wait to hold their cousin Evan too.
Elliot could still recall visiting Baby Jonas at the hospital 2 years ago!


Dinner is served!!! 
So impressed with the dinner set up at Mt E.
看了就很有mood吃


A well deserved break time for our second time mommy. 伟大的妈妈 辛苦了! 


Leah loves babies.


She's a proud mommy to all her dolls. She would cradle and hush them, give a bottle, then pat them to sleep. It's hilarious whenever she stomps out of her room and asks you to lower down your volume cuz her baby is trying to take nap. 需要这么认真吗?


Heidii: Why can't I hold the baby? 
HMPF! So unfair.


So tiny and precious, and he loves being wrapped up into a tight burrito.


:)


Happy birthday song for Evan!

Another week down!

Photo taken just before Leah leaves for school and another one of Elliot getting his Friday dine out lunch with mommy.
Yup, promised to take him out for lunch on Fridays.

Now that they are in different school sessions, my ME TIME is very much non-existent. 


Fetch his favourite little sister from her kindy.

Daily routine: 
1) wake the boy, breakfast, prepare his snack box and walk him to school at 7.10am
2) back at home, throw clothes into the washer. The girl is now in the afternoon session and she wakes up at around 8am
3) breakfast, 1 hour of assessment book with the girl with breaks in between.
4) girl gets her free time, she either watch the Okto channel or play toys while her lunch is in the making.
5) lunch time. Pack her snack box, girl gets ready for school. [Hairdo and uniform]
6) walk the girl to school at 11.50am
7) 12pm to 1.30pm: Have my lunch, wash the dishes, hang the laundry, fold the clothes [aka housework lah!]
8) 1.35pm: fetch the boy 
9) 2pm: boy gets his quick shower, lunch and rest before we fetch his sister at 3pm
9) both kids do their homework if any, then proceed to complete other tuition homework, follow by homework assigned by their mom.  [With breaks in between] No TV, no play. 
10) 6ish: Dinner time and free time until shower time at 8pm 
11) boy will check his timetable and pack his school bag for the next day. 
12) Silent reading in bedroom and lights out at 9pm.

Their routine will tweak a little on days when they need to go for tuition. Basically, my free time starts from 9pm which I will shower and then watch some TV. But I couldn't last very long because I'm so drained. Sigh. Alot of adjustments were made to fit into this new routine/lifestyle. I do not look forward to wake up at 6am the next day. But bobian! 

Thankful to be staying with in laws. On the days when they are around, I was able to leave my children in their good hands while I go get some jobs done/ do groceries shopping/ pak tor with my man. 
My sanity is saved.

For our daily walk home after school

Me: What did you have for recess today?
Elliot: Ahh.. Chicken rice 
Me: CHICKEN RICE AGAIN!?! Can you don't eat chicken rice everyday? Try something different!!
Elliot: But I like chicken rice. I want to eat chicken rice until I'm very old, until I go to heaven and ask Jesus to cook chicken rice for me. 


WIN ALREADY!
