That Mom Of Four

All I wanted to do was buy some things from Carrefour and then head straight home but that was not to be. I was forced to loiter around these kiddie rides for almost an hour. It was either drag a screaming toddler all the way  to the car while pushing a stroller with a sleeping mei mei and carrying a bag of groceries or let the stubborn toddler grow tired of sitting on the cars and motorbikes.  So I chose the latter, not wanting to wake the royal mei mei up from her slumber.  

Ok now I know I'm making the right choice by giving Nyx an Etch-a-Sketch instead of markers and pens for now.  But as for the rummaging thru of the fridge and cupboards....... I'm as guilty as the parent who took this picture of the kid digging through the fridge. Haha! Nyx has this ability to seek out my stash of tidbits wherever i hide them.

Here are some pictures of Nyx posing in her various hats and Nya looking more and more like a little boy. I think its the Elvis Presley sideburns though........

Since last week Nyx has started forcing me and Guojun to put on our sandals so we can take her outside to play with her toys either on the back porch or the huge carpark out front where she can cycle or push her stroller, lawnmower or bike.

The long wait is finally over.  Baby Asher was born on Tuesday afternoon to Leelee and Johnny.  Life gonna be soooo........... different from now on manz.  More pictures to come =)

Seems like abit of jealousy is starting to surface in Nyx....... oh boy. Whenever she hears me ask Guojun to carry Nya she will run to him as fast as her little legs can go and shout "pa pa bao!!!!!" wanting him to carry her instead of her little sis.  Even when she hears Nya cry she will do the same cos she knows that when the baby cries we have to go tend to her or carry her.   She still adores and fusses over Nya all the same though, its just that she wants us to give her as much attention as before. Poor baby....... Here's a video of Nyx going at her slide on her own for the first time.  

 At the pet store On the way home from Toys R Us   Sleepy babies  Nyx wearing her favourite hat A long time ago Nyx used to roll around on this little mat with mobile attachments which we didn't display today.  Now Nya is using it but the big sis still wants to have fun on it, or she could just be wanting to lie down next to her little sis.  Its really hard to make her stay away from Nya sometimes......... The day before yesterday we took the two little girls to Toys R Us and ended up buying a toy stroller for Nyx cos she wouldn't part with it. We also visited Animalis which is a huge pet store in Bordeaux cos we were considering getting Nyx a rabbit or a hamster.  (Don't worry moms  and pops, we didn't get another pet lah, hehehe)

Nyx 1 month old Nyx 1 month old Nya taken at 2 months old  Nya taken at 2 months old When Nyx was about a month old she was wearing this very same purple outfit.  However this is the 3rd time Nya is wearing it but Nyx outgrew it after wearing it only once.  I will not be letting Nya wear it anymore cos already its a little too snug.  It did serve a longer useful life this time round though, haha, since Nya is still able to wear it at 2 months old.   They look so alike!

Its pom pom time again! Hopefully Nya will get a chance to take a dip in the tiny pool too before the weather starts getting too cold by the end of this year.
