I was so touched today when HipnCoolmomma left a comment in one my posts to ask if I was alright as I had not made any postings in my blog yesterday. When I finally sent out my post this afternoon, she was the first to comment on it. That was just so sweet and thoughtful of you Girlie. Thanks!
Well, life has been rather hectic for me for the past few days. Alycia and Sherilyn have been demanding a lot of attention from me lately. Whenever I start to work on my computer, the gals, especially Sherilyn will climb onto my chair to sit with me and start hitting my keyboard or try pressing the on/off button. Sherilyn will then demand that I read to her from the computer or she would bring out her books and beg me to read to her. So I have to stop everything I am doing and attend to her whimps and fancies immediately, lest she throws herself into a fit of rage and end up puking... she's Miss Pukey remember? Oh yes talking about puking, she also puked after her dinner 2 days ago and ended up eating her beloved favourite cereal. And she is finally weaned OFF from blended food for more than 1 week, YAY! But she only wants to eat fish with lots of fish sauce (soya sauce, garlic and spring onions all stir-fried) and doesn't like it plain. She still hates chicken.
Last night, it was Alycia's turn to puke when I brushed her teeth. Good thing she puked on the bathroom floor and not inside the room as it was already close to 11pm and it drives me bonkers when they mess up the bedroom with vomit at such an ungodly hour. When it was time for bedtime stories, I was already drop dead frazzled and sleepy and my eyelids just refused to stay upright. I hurriedly rushed off reading 2 Starfall storybooks to them and turned down Alycia's pleas to have her kids' bible read to her. Gosh, I really felt bad but my brain just couldn't function as I have been getting interrupted sleep for the last few nights when Alycia kept waking up and demanded that I go and sleep with her in the gals' room. I had also read a few books to them yesterday and in the evening we also walked to a nearby mini market to do some grocery shopping and thereafter went to the park. It was a long and tiring day and it was and is still hazy and that made me tire out easily.
Today, Sherilyn accidentally pooed in her pants and as I was rushing her to the toilet, the poop dropped on the floor!!! Oh how gross.... and my helper had to clean up the mess whilst I cleaned Sherilyn up. Later when I was typing a paid post and was about to send it out, Sherilyn came and ka ka cau cau and I messed the whole post up and had to exit from Blogger and signed in again.
It's really tough working at home when you have 2 defiant toddlers who constantly want your attention. Having said all these, I still have no regrets being a SAHM or rather WFHM.

can imagine d madnest with having a toddler at home, whats more 2!
I was wondering the same thing. Last time, you'd post a handful a day; sometimes a handful half a day; then suddenly....one a day, 2 a day....I thought you finally saw a Doctor and recovered from Blogivitis.
Better get someone with the disease to spread it back to you again!
Chin Nee...yes 2 is already a handful, cant imagine those with 3 or 4 or 5 with no maid. I'll go chee sin.
BP... wah... u r very observant in my blogging pattern. Well, the days that i hv a handful of posts are my lucky days coz these are the days I get lots of reviews to write and I am compelled to write 2 filler posts between each paid post.
I also noticed that you are getting fast infected by Blogivitis eh and u've got a bad bout of it too eh...
hehe, drama queens pukin and pooin. i know how bad interrupted sleep can be, sometimes when shern wakes up 4 times in a night, i tell you i can faint! so very tiring. you have a good rest.
i just got worried, you see i was used to seeing you post everyday, and all of a sudden pffffftttt!
i understand the needs of the kids, and as moms we should be there for them.
ya,it is tough to concentrate on work when have kids around...drastically understand your situation.
Lucky you have a maid to help you out with household chores :) Unlike me :( , I can only log in when they are in school or wee hours...
What's WFHM ? Work from home Mom ? I think it's the same with SAHM right? Both stay at home?
I am addicted to blogging before I become a mom, looks like all mom will be more addicted to blogging :)
Cherry... WFHM means working and getting paid by someone other than your spouse, whereas SAHM literally means housewife :)
You're also a mum? I thot u r a medical student?
hahaha...i was wondering the same thing too but i thought maybe you were busy with the weekends and all. I could understand how difficult it is to be typing on the computer and then get interupted. Guess your gals just want some attention since you said you have not been paying much to them cos you are doing paid post ;D Sometimes can't help it eh? Now, whenever I have the time, I'll try to spend more time with Ashley.
No, I was just stating that it seems all women get addicted to blogging when they become SAHM. I was just wondering how addicted I will be when I finally become mom.
And I am design student :)
