any mommies into flashcards? I'm thinking of making my own mandarin or maths ones. It's really amazing I'm not kidding you. It's not like the route learning/drilling type of torture sessions like what I envisioned before. I'm reading Glenn Doman's book and he advocates that learning is a JOY. That our baby WANTS to learn, LIKES to learn, and is fully capable of learning from infant stage. I've also heard testimonials from my friends who tried on their newborns that truly their babies enjoy those sessions.
Rather than send them to those expensive Shicida or GD classes, you can do them at home by yourself. Economy bad lah, better save some money.

kome,
yah I do. Funny thing is I never knew I could sew! Was terrible at Home Economics sewing classes. It's one of those life ironies. It wasn't until I became an accidential SAHMTB that I uncovered new passions and new talents that I never knew I had. Feel so blessed.

I rem my previous company banned msn cos too many people were bitching about their bosses or colleagues during office hours. hahaha
I don't like msn cos I'm usually multitasking too many things at a time. Cannot concentrate. Think I will go prepare lunch liao. Then walk my dogs and probably itchy fingers, need to make another pair of shoes. Try out a new design this time. hehehehe

Daphne,
wow you have just made my day leh! ok I make one for you
Let me know which pair of fabrics you want.
(1) Denim blue as above
(2) Denim pink/reddish hue
(3) Retro checkered design (blue, white & red)100% cotton.
(4) Plain white 100% cotton
(5) Baby blue with white polka dots 100% cotton
(6) Red fleece
(7a)Brown/yellow tone like autumn colours Retro "canvas like" fabric (very cool looking but not comfy against the skin, so advisable to use as outer fabric. Inner fabric can be any of the above. In other words this is not advisable to use as reversible). I personally like this best.
(7b)light cream, lilac, baby green tones like winter colours
(7c)turquoise/purple/red - dark tones for more glam
(8) Spring - green floral 100% cotton
(9)green with subtle diagonal textured fabric - 100% cotton.
Pics here. Let me know? The ones I made above is for anywhere between 3-6mths. Can have it in 6-9 mths too if you like.
I'll make it and post you the pics. If you like then you pay ok?

Is it ok for babies to wear shoes? I thot we cannot let babies wear shoes until they are 1 year old.
technically not shoes actually. These are soft soled, baby booties made with cloth. i.e. an alternative to feet mittens
Yah babies and in fact, even very young toddlers shouldn't be wearing hard soles like stiff rubber soles. They need flexible soled footies, best with fabric or soft leather soles.

Thanks alfafa77.
Coz I thot babies not allowed to wear shoes. But your shoes(mittens) are very cute... You should do a BP for this, let the mummies choose the colour and size...

sunshine,
me not the creative one. I bought a pattern originated from an Etsy mom. She's damn smart, only sell patterns not the finished goods cos it takes alot of effort to make one. This pattern (template) alone is almost SGD7. And she has sold thousands of patterns via Etsy and her personal website. How nice it is to turn a passion into a business venture

Hi mummies, seek your advice.. Should I get a maid? My mom cannot handle 2 unless I send them over to her house in the morning. Hmmm... Am thinking of either a car or a maid. Car is too expensive... Maid is no privacy... And I myself dun like maid... My hubby asked me to decide. In a dilema leh..
st : thanks for letting me know u received the cream .
Devil : My MIL also cannot handle my SIL's toddler and my newborn and ask for a maid if not my newborn will be put to infant care or nanny but after considering , hubby and me decided to get a maid lor and have to tahan for 2 years and once my boy older can go childcare then I put him in .
Coconut : which is the one we should take , big or small ?
Anyone can add me in MSN . My is [email protected]

ST,
yah I was told to drink the big ones also. Happens that I prefer the big ones over the small super sweet types, the latter is really too sweet for me.
Devil,
that's a tough one. Average monthly cost to upkeep a 1.6litre car, inclusive of insurance tax regular servicing etc etc is probably round about $1000 if I am not wrong? Assuming that you are not a heavy user e.g. property agents or some outdoor sales jobs. Not sure about maids .. but a friend told me it's about $900 thereabouts as well.
So the dilemma is whether (1) you find a way to send both kids to your mom's place every morning and fetch them back at night - need to buy car OR
(2) you hire a maid so she can help take care of both your kids at home without your mom - need to hire maid.
Errr ... is this correct? If so, perhaps maid is better. she can help you to do a bit of housework as well and it takes away the need to rush back and forth during peak hours to your mom's place. More flexible than getting a car too. You will utilise the maid's help more than that of a car.
Btw, I've also heard of people "hiring" out their cars with contractual agreement though the real legality of such arrangement is questionable. These are usually people who will "lugi" alot if they sell their cars at current market value, but who also cannot afford to upkeep the cars by themselves anymore. They will take care of maintenance also so you just pay for the monthly instalment. That's what an ex-colleague of my husband did after she switched from sales to marketing.
Hope this helps
