Happy Mother's Day (part 2)

Early dinner at The Clementi Mall's Soup Restaurant. The hubby made reservations, hence we got a mini room (real mini as it was pretty squeezy), no waiting queue and we have to order their set menu. It's a must since we made a reservation. Wow. 

There are 6 of us (and of course the baby, but she's unable to eat table food yet), so we ordered the set for 4 and topped up with two ala carte dishes.

Here's the set menu we ordered. We chose the Celebration Menu (S$123++). The cheapest of all. Lol.

Baby very happy. She kept talking. But most probably she's tired yet excited. 

The food was pretty tasty. I like all of the dishes. Most of the dishes are not our usual we-will-order kind of food. So it's thanks to this must-order-set-menu, we got to taste different food. 

Happy Mother's Day to my dearest mummy. 

My sister got me a gift and a flower too. Thanks dear sister. 

Happy Mother's Day

Happy mother's day to all mothers and mother-to-bes. It's a commercialised day where mothers get appreciated. Lol! 

Hubs got me this. Loreal RevitalLift anti-wrinkle and firming day cream. With a fine print that he doesn't mean that I am full of wrinkles or that my skin is sagging. Lol. 

Thank you hubby. I know I do look pretty bad sometimes.. Or most of the time. Haha.. Don't worry. I know myself. 

On this special day, I requested for Macdonalds breakfast. Yay. Happy food. 

Then I made marble cake with intention to bring over for my mum. But it failed. Terribly. Ouch. 

Then I made us lunch. Not that bad not that bad. 

Then I made porridge for baby's dinner. And I burnt them. Sigh. What a klutz. 

That's 50% of my first mother's day.

Interaction with Latte

Latte, male Japanese Spitz, who is a year older (360 days to be exact) than Josie, is our dear family dog. Her older dogbro. 

Ever since she was born, we separated them, with no physical interaction except seeing each other from a distance until 6.5 months old. Which is recently... 

The reason for separating them is mainly because of his nails. Even though we do cut, his nails somehow are very sharp. Maybe because he's still young and easily excited. He always puts alot of pressure when he claws. My family member always get lines on the arms and legs. On serious occasions, the lines take days to heal. I did not dare to put my newborn to that test. 

So...

I would carry Josie and sit near him.. She would touch him, he would come near and smell her. Her sudden actions scare him though, especially when she got excited and kick her feet or waves her hands around. 

Today, 2 days shy of 7 months old, I let them interaction. She touch him. He lay down to let her touch, nose her, lick her. I am touched by their actions. They look so loving, so sweet. All along they were very interested in each other. Today I know, they love each other. My heart melts. 

This photo is taken a few days later.

Bangkok holiday with Baby

We just went for a short holiday over the Mayday long weekend with our baby. I will be updating and sharing about what we did over there. May take a while... as... my darling doesn't like me to touch my phone haha.. She just wants me X__x

Lookalike

This morning I woke up to a shock. I was still feeling super tired from our holiday therefore I thought I had seen wrongly.

There's this article about water intoxication for babies below 6 months old. And the photo they use. I thought ot was Josie. When I showed my parents the photo, they thought it's my baby. Haha..

Here's the article

Then I tried to take a photo with a similar pose for comparison. But didn't quite work out. I took loads of them. Omg. 

Then I gave up. Not really able to replicate as baby was getting bored.

Here's the feeble attempt.
