hmm your baby sounds like a picky eater

maybe you want to monitor see what food is easier to retain, and really really pay close attention to your cravings

usually those are the food your baby wants and will not be ejected

first time is like that one lah, and usually it's a boy the way old wives' tales go

After facing a blank dining wall for 1 year, we've finally decided to hang up some of the existing art that we have! The one on the far left is a chinese paper cutting, 2nd piece is a design cutout from a old shopping bag, and 3rd and 4th piece are old drawings that i framed up using ikea frames. this is my dining wall now. i'm thinking of making it more colourful next time but feeling abit lazy nowadays so using whatever i have right now

hee. i paid about $170 from a CNY exhibition in vivocity. she say she's the third generation papercutting artist from Wan's papercutting art. not sure whether thats famous as we are not v knowledgeable in papercutting. so are such papercutting cheaper in china?? how much were u quoted? i oso v curious to know

i saw a very elaborated one, very nice

but was asking a few thousand RMB, which translate to almost a thousand S$

definitely not cheap, but i guess our 'tourist' look cause them to mark u the price

hehe... I also never expect our home to be featured in AT too. The editor of AT spotted my home through flickr and drop me a message to invite me for the AT House Tour. Similarly our home is still evolving.

So have you prepare your nursery room?

i got no space for nursery room! ours is an EA and we knocked down the study to enlarge the living room. so effectively only got 3 rooms. 1 is MBR, the other converted to a study. so the spare room was supposed to be our nursery room. but then didnt imagine i got twins, so hiring a maid to help my mil take care.. so the spare room become a maid room. sob. i'm so pressed for space now.

Hmmm...sounded a bit strange leh. Your maid got an entitlement of a room but not your kids, just my opinion hehe. Anyway ur maid's duty is to assist you in taking care of your kids most of the time, so maybe you should have the children room and ur maid sleep with ur kids. That is always the end result of most Singapore families.
