Baby C's New Peg-Perego Stroller

I got a big surprise last night when hubby came home with a new Peg-Perego stroller for Baby C. I was a tad disappointed coz it wasn't a jogging stroller, but still it was way better than our exsiting beat-up stroller, which is almost 4 years old. The Peg-Perego stroller has many functions, which I have to spend some time to read up the manual to study the functions and to find out where the buttons are. What I like about this stroller is that the baby can be placed facing 2 directions, facing me and vice-versa.




The stroller comes with a mozzie net. Sherilyn as usual, curious as she could be, climbed on the stroller whilst daddy zipped up the mozzie net. However, her legs were too long for the stroller and the mozzie net and almost ripped the net apart!


This morning Baby C woke up very early and I brought her jogging along with me. I didn't use the new stroller coz too sayang to use the brand new and sparkling clean stroller.

The new Peg-Perego stroller cost RM1,700 but hubby bought it at around RM1,400 after a discount. Hubby asked about the jogging stroller and did not buy it when he found out that it cost a whopping RM3,000+!

I intend to sell this Peg-Perego at half price or lesser in 3-4 years' time. Till then, I shall blog about the sale of this stroller in my blog :)

Seriously Crazy Over This Seriously Mature Cheddar Cheese

Hubby bought this Scottish cheese from Jaya Jusco last week.... and I am crazy over this cheddar cheese. If you are a cheese lover, try this cheese. The taste is not too strong (unlike Blue Cheese which taste horrible to me, like baby's regurgitated milk, eeeuuuuuu!) and just right for my tastebud. Goes very well with crackers or toast or even on its own. Today, I tried another brand of cheese which my relative bought. It cost over RM17 for one roundish wedge and it has brandy, nuts and dried fruits in it. I've never seen or tasted this kinda cheese before. It tasted exactly like cheese cake and I love it! I want to go and get a wedge for myself too when I next go to Jaya Jusco.

Baby C Is 6 Months Old Today

Happy 6 months old darling baby Cassandra. Very soon, you will be blowing your first candle on your birthday cake. Hopefully with God's grace, you will outgrow your Kidney Reflux very soon. Read on here...



Baby C playing peek-a-boo with Sherilyn cheh cheh. She just loves playing peek-a-boo.





In a cheeky and jovial mood...

Baby C Hates The High Chair

... and it ain't no cheapskate high chair yer know, it's an expensive Safe n Sound high chair with colorful seat pad, adjustable to 3 levels, a chair that Alycia and Sher once sat on but this fussy baby just hates it. Maybe it's because she feels hot sitting on the plastic seat and she hates being belted up and confined to it. She would whine, struggle, try to wriggle her way out of the belt and arch her back each time she is placed on the high chair.


So I have now put the highchair aside.... colorful plastic seat also removed....



...carried the playpen from the living room up to the dining room, next to the dining table and put baby inside so that I can have my meals with a peace of mind....



but I can't keep this fussy baby in this cage for long, else she would whine and fuss again.

Baby C's Crib Lowered

Just want to put on record before I forget.... today daddy lowered Baby C's crib to the middle notch. For the past 1 to 2 weeks, she has been trying to pull herself up by pulling the railings of the crib and the cot bumper. Many times, she was so near to doing forward rolls or somersaults and I am just freaking worried that she may toss herself out from the crib! Baby C reminds me of Alycia and Sher when they were a baby - very, very active, tough and samseng.... and the 3 of them have boundless energy... and don't sleep a lot too!

I even have trouble putting on a diaper for Baby C as she would be tossing and turning and struggling. My hands have to move at lighting speed to fasten the tapes before she arches her back or flips over. I will have sweat all over my body each time I bathe her or put a diaper on her.


Picture taken last week - Baby C crawling on my bed from one end to another. She was eyeing the bed railing and when she reached the bed railing, she kept scratching and licking the netting. Aaargghhh.... this is the stage where I have to be extra cautious and watch her like a hawk, else I will have many heart attack moments when I see tissue papers or pencils or other non-edible stuff in her mouth!


Even barricading the bed with pillows and bolsters is useless now. My samseng knows how to crawl over them.

Cheap And Nice

You wouldn't believe how cheap these sports socks are. They only cost 99 sen a pair! Dirt cheap hor? I bought them from Giant and the quality is really good, just as good if not even better than socks worth RM9.99 a pair. I should have bought 20 pairs since I jog everyday had I known that the quality is so good. That's why I like 'house' brand products - they are cheap and good!




No one would have guessed that this pair of socks costs only 99 sen right? Looks nice on my legs eh?

Panasonic Water Filter

We bought an expensive health-enhancing water filter 2 weeks ago, in the hope that Baby C will not have another UTI attack and our 2 older gals won't fall sick so frequently. People say that the cleanliness and purity of our drinking water is very important in preventing ailments. That's why Diamond and Elken came out with their own brands of health-enhancing water filters which are really costly.

To those of you who have a health-enhancing water filter fitted at home, I have a few questions to ask you. Please hop over to my health blog.

Organic Omega Soy Flax Meal

I bought this can of flax seeds powder with soy protein for the girls last week. Flax seeds are known to be a brain and heart food. Read more here.

Our Sunday

After church today, we had Italian food at Santini's @ Jaya 1, PJ. These are what we ordered :


Seafood spaghetti...

Baked lasagne with beef and lotsa creamy cheese...


Pizza...

Creamy Pasta ...

Hubby's T-bone steak with grilled squash and veggie...

Tiramasu.... I love this sinful, creamy dessert! I chomped down almost the entire bowl myself. I just love tiramasu and can never get enough of this fattening dessert... with rum lagi shiok!


Dainty Italian chocolate biscuits (chilled) in cute spoons... given on the house!






Alycia and Sherilyn all absorbed watching the chefs make pizza and putting the pizzas into a huge stove with flame.

Verdict : food was good though a little pricey, especially the T-bone steak which hubby ordered.

My Saturday... Part II

Whilst I was busy till I felt dizzy the whole morning today, which is normally a morning where I will be maid-less, Sherilyn my big time trouble-maker created trouble again.... and made me really mad, so mad my hubby could drive me to the madhouse in Tg. Rambutan! The whole morning, she was blowing the goo goo from her nose onto the dining table, then touched Baby C (who is having a slight cough) with her goo-filled fingers , then with her sticky and oily hands played with her toys, touched Baby C again, climbed up and down the chairs and the final straw which made me caned her was when she spilt her glass of water AGAIN!! Aarrgghh..... I tell you, this brat spills water 9 out of 10 times she drinks water UNLESS I am standing next to her with a cane and make sure she gulps down the water immediately instead of playing with the cup or dipping her hands into the water or dipping tissue papers inside the water or pouring water from one cup to another or putting food inside the cup of water or etc, etc. This brat can be up to many bright ideas!

After I had wiped dry the floor and table, Sherilyn asked to eat pine nuts. So I poured some pine nuts into a small bowl for her. She was eating and playing with the pine nuts but I was too busy with Baby C to chide her off. I just knew she would create trouble again and true, she dropped the bowl of pine nuts and the pine nuts were scattered everywhere on the dining area floor, right up to the floor down the split level where my computer is. Oh I tell you, I was boiling mad again. The melamine bowl cracked and I threw it away. I made Sher pick up all the pine nuts from the floor. While she was picking up the pine nuts, Sher kept saying "mummy, I am good girl". Then she pestered me for more pine nuts.... "mummy, I want some more pine nuts, I want some more pine nuts, some more pine nuts, mummy some more pine nuts....." She went on and on until I went nuts hearing the words pine nuts!!

All the running around, yelling, carrying Baby C, feeding Baby C her meds and supplements (which is a back-breaking task coz it ain't easy to make her swallow those yucky stuff) and doing some household chores made me all sweaty though I had taken my shower when I came back from my jogging session this morning. I took my shower again after lunch.

Oh yes, Sherilyn had another wee wee accident 2 days ago and this time, it was a BIG accident coz daddy had forgotten to put on a diaper for her and she messed up everything on the bed!
