Here is a recent photo of Em sitting on her grandpa's lap. He is her favourite. That's only because he carries her all the time...ALL.THE.TIME.Which brings me to this - how do I do it with 2 kids?
The answer is pretty simple really...I don't. Half of the time, Ash is with her paternal grandparents. I did say how difficult miss em is (much like doing colon cleanse reviews). She really is. She won't sit still and wants to be carried all the time. As such, there is no way in PJ that I can handle 2 kids alone without help.
Yes, I have a sling, a really pretty one I bought from Chin Nee but I hardly use it. Not because it's not nice or anything of that sort, it's because Em wants to be carried upright facing forward. So, the sling is...well, in the closet.
I'm not sure what it is. But this is the only way miz boz will calm down. It's the only method of soothing her. I try not to indulge her too much though but it's hard, she'll bring the house down. I'm serious. The neighbours (the real ones...not on FT) are saying something about it too.
So, there, I can't do it alone. I really need someone to hold my hands. We're thinking about the possibility of a maid. But, the cost factor, the stranger in the house, the I-can't-walk-naked-anymore fear. It's not as easy as 1-2-3. We'll see how it goes.
Oh, and Choong asked me how do I handle jealousy among siblings. Ok, now this is something I want to know as well. Because, fortunately as of now, it's not happening yet in this house. Luckily for us, Ash is pretty good with her sis. So, I'm hoping it'll be this way for a long time to come but you know kids, things changes rather quickly with them.
Ok, gotta stop here. Ash needs to go to bed. Talk to ya later.

hahaha, there I am again...
now, I know you don't have a maid... and I agree with you, no need to say walk around naked, even half naked you've to think twice, you've to think thrice..
I've had experience before, in my brother's house, at the end of the day, you even have to endure this precious family TV time with a stranger sitting next to you, and even laugh together with you... it's just kinda weird...!!
mm... maybe if first one is daughter will have less jealousy problem :)
(which i'll pray very hard, cos, mine's daughter ^_^)
It's not easy bringing in a stranger to live under your roof, but with a maid, you'll have so much more free to for yourself and the kids. Well, that is, if the maid doesn't give you headache.
