My Mummy is a Monster

(Can u see her 2 horns sticking out of her hair? Look at my expression and u can tell...So scary!)

I'm 13 months now so I can host my own blog. My first blog shall be - My Mummy from Hell! She is a Monster! Let me tell you why :(

Mummy, Daddy, Popo and I went to Causeway Pt for a Dim Sum lunch today. Mummy ordered some nice dishes but she only gave me a bowl of century egg congee. I kept pointing to her I wanted that fried beancurd skin and she just refused to give me! So I decided the best protest is to shut my mouth - DUN EAT! Daddy took over the feeding so that my devil mummy can eat. She was happily eating up all the rest of the dishes with me watching. Luckily she had some conscience and gave me a small bite of her SIEW MAI. Wow! it's MARVELICIOUS (short for marvelous and delicious)! So I kept telling her "mum mum....". She was nice initially, she cut them into small pieces and shared it with me! O no! My tongue had this burning sensation. My face immediately turned red and I was perspiring on my head! She had chilli on her chopstick! I screamed but I still wanted the siew mai. I finished almost one and half pc of it then she told me "NO MORE!". She wanted the remaining half so she told me NO MORE! of cos I wouldn't take that. I wailed out loud with my big mouth wide open. And I made sure 2 rolls of tears comes out.... She had no choice but to give me another pc of siew mai but I was too angry to eat it anymore. Daddy carried me out of the restaurant. I guess it Daddy's tactic not to foot the bill.

Next Daddy brought me shopping around and finally meeting Mummy and Popo at the basement Guardian Pharmacy. I was having a good time with Daddy cos Daddy got me a balloon from MacDonald. Not noticing Mummy was coming and SHE STRIKES AGAIN! She carried me from behind and slowly moving me away from Daddy. U know I've separation anxiety and someone carried me from behind without knowing who it was. Of cos I was scared and I cried out loudly again. This time with my eyes tightly shut. She was laughing at my pathetic state and left Daddy to comfort me. She continued her shopping with Popo...

So do u think my mummy is a MONSTER!

恺恺色狼传

| | 1 You Bark here

It's either Baby Julian has his father gene or Mummy has watched too much "Sing Chan cartoon - 蜡笔小新" during pregnancy. He is basically a sheep under wolf skin.

Incident 1#
He invited Baby Jerselle to his class on Sat and kept kissing her in front of her parents until she couldn't stand him anymore. Poor Jerselle!

Incident 2#
He was at Daddy's handphone shop, there was this couple walking pass...saw our beautiful Nicole and the girl squatted down to stroke Nicole. The boyfriend was anxious that she would reveal her undies (she was wearing a very short hot pant)so kept pulling her pant behind. Then our Baby Julian saw her. Walked to her and grab her thigh. Luckily, he is still a baby maniac so the boy friend didn't realise his act and give a black eye. (P.S : Julian, she is only interested in jie jie not u, dun take opportunity!)

Incident 3#
Whenever there is a pretty girl on the cover page of a magazine, he will grab the magazine and start kissing it till it's full of his saliva.

So if u think u are a PRETTY GAL, STAY CLEAR OF HIS PATH!

Toy Story - PG

| | 2 You Bark here

Last Sunday, Ch5 showed Toy Story so Mummy switched it over after dinner so Julian could watch the cartoon. It was suppose to be a Adventure Story of the TOYS but after Mummy's narration (so call parental guidance), it became a HORROR show for him!

The cartoon began with an Astronaut flying here and there in the space. Then he met his enemies, he destroyed them until he met a very powerful one that blew him into 2 pieces.... Mummy was afraid that he couldn't understand the story so she simplified it with her own version like...The Astronaut was flying here and there when he met the BACKSIDE MONSTER! O! He destroyed them so that the BM would not bite Julian anymore. O No! He met another BM, a more powerful one. He was trying to run away and at the same time avoiding his bites. BANG!....No need narration anymore! Julian saw the BM shot the astronaut into 2 pieces and he cried out loudly! Mummy was shock and quickly hugged Julian and tried hard to pacify him. (By the way, how do I know the good one will be defeated by the bad one)

Nevertheless, Mummy continued to narrate the story replacing all bad guys with BM. Baby Julian watched the show attentively (with his mouth wide open) and shaking his head occasionally.

Later when I told the incident to Auntie Unique. She said the meaning of PG means parent will guide the child in the right way so perhap next time when there is a PG show, I need to be guided by another sensible adult to ensure Baby Julian has a RIGHT PARENTAL GUIDANCE!

Backside Monster

| | 2 You Bark here

How was Backside Monster being created? Here the story goes....

Baby Julian has a cute and tender bum (with a green patch) and Mummy is so tempted to bite his bum after every shower. So one day Mummy couldn't resist anymore and bite it! Julian cried out! Of course I wouldn't admit Mummy has done it. So immediately Mummy told him, "it's the BACKSIDE MONSTER! It's Ok... Mummy will protect your backside!" So Mummy became the good one, always protecting Baby Julian's bum.... Hee heee...

Nowadays, when Julian is very naughty or wouldn't sleep, Mummy will tell him story of BACKSIDE MONSTER which becomes a bedtime story for him. Maybe Mummy should start writing children story just like Madonna... but I'll do the HORROR one and who knows it will become another HARRY POTTER...

A Mother Journal - 母亲的感言

Finally Baby Julian is 1! See how difference he looks now and then. He was then a 3kg baby and now he is over 9kg! He has changed so much, grow so much during the last 12 months.

Seeing this little thing sleeping next to me every nights, I feel so contented and at peace. I've been putting a smiley face to bed every night cos of him. Although he is naughty and very hyper-active and he always wear mummy down, nevertheless he is Mummy's best medicine for bi-polar.


ON FOOD - I've never been a good cook so when I first realised that I have to cook for a baby after being a mother, I am worried! I basically started collecting recipes and asking around for advises when he was born! Baby Julian has a big appetite and a fine tongue! He started asking for solid when he was 4.5m old! As a 4.5m baby, the food in the market is quite limited as most of it is for 6m above. So it put me to test! He first started with Eu Yan Sang 四神糙米粉 recommended by his god mummy then he soon got tired of it. Next Auntie Samantha advised me to cook mashed potato with carrots, green peas with mashed potato, mashed sweet potato... Soon he grew tired of it too! He was about 5m plus then. So Mummy decided to cook the dreadful porridge! The porridge was bland and he didn't like it so Mummy panic and started asking around for advice again. This time Auntie Jessia recommended mummy to put a teaspoon of organic miso to give the porridge a taste and others suggested BOVRIL (Mummy's childhood fav!) He loved the miso but not the BOVRIL. So Mummy would always cook the porridge with miso, veggies and fish then blend it for this little one with 4 teeth. Mummy also went for Nutrition Talk organised by polyclinic to hone up my cooking skill. So far, I've cooked pasta, udon, apple porridge... for him. With the discovery of dried scallops (also a recommendation from god mummy and so far sponsored by her at S$13 a pack), mummy's porridge cooking skill has improved tremendously. Now mummy will blend a tub of grains to cook everyday. Ingredients will be veggies, meat and 5 small pcs of scallops. Julian will finish his dinner diligently. Seeing him eating to heartily, I'm so contented. Dear Julian, I will improve my cooking skill and add more variety to your daily meals. I PROMISE!


ON WEANING - I had tried to wean him off since he was 7m but was not successful cos he didn't want bottle feed and he didn't want the formula. Anyway, I was not persistent too cos my intention is too feed him till 1 year old. When he was about 10-11m, my milk supply dropped and he would cried every nights for milk. Then I started to panic and desperately trying to substitute him with FORMULA! Luckily, this time popo was around to help. With advices from the Mummy Support Club & the right FORMULA... He was weaned off quickly. I got him a Pooh Bear training cup on the advice from the Mummy's club and told it was milk milk from Pooh Pooh. He would kiss the bear on the cup and start drinking from it. I couldn't feed him but popo will do the job (also advice from the Mummy's). With the right BRAND, he is on FORMULA now. No more chasing after Mummy's breast. So finally my factory can rest.

ON PARENTING - I think women are really SUPER! When I was a pregnant. I really had no idea about what I should do as a Mummy beside having the experience of taking care of Nicole. So I read and read.. When Julian was born, I couldn't apply the theories cos very panicking. I couldn't even carry him properly. With nobody to help and the confinement nanny was gone... I struggled. Throughout the 12m, I am "P plate" (Probational) Mummy...learning along the way. I guess the responsibility and commitment is so great that I become a SUPER MUMMY. I become a better cook, can wake up in the middle of the night to check on him especially when he was sick... Those were the things I wouldn't be able to do it in the past. BUT being a mummy is forever a learning process. I tell myself, I will go on...
