Thank you baby,
For being a wonderful daddy to the babies.
For being around most of the time.
For doing all the chores revolving the kids so fine.
For helping with all the chores in the house.
For being a pillar of strength all this while.
You have made the meaning of father NEW.
For all the thing you have done, more than those listed above, just to name a few.
MY DADDY ROCKS!
Cos he changes our poo.
And he brings us to the zoo.
Cos he brings us to shopping!
And he feeds us tho we were fussing.
I know we can do all things,
Cos you make them happen to our likings.
We love you Daddy!
Today marks another year
Since the last time I made a mark on this special day right here.
It's another year of fond memories
In our hearts, I am sure, they will forever be cherished;
The arrival of our son Lucas ah boy,
And the many milestones that Leianne achieved that brought us joy...
Yet, none of these can be compared to the love you gave.
So much more than I can or ever give.
Especially now it has seemed that our lives have been revolving around the two darlings.
And lesser time for our night time talks and little weekly datings.
Thank you for making every effort to make me feel managable at home.
Though you always said that I am strong, I could not have done all these myself alone.
Thank you for the many little and big things you have done;
From daily different breakfast menus to the clothes in the dryer left undone.
Calling home all day to check on things,
Rushing everyday from work to be home by six.
Taking over the kids in the night and in the weekends,
So that I have free time; do ministry or hang out with my friends.
And of course, running all the necessary weekly grocery errands,
Well, I guess this list is simply endless...
All I can say, is that you have showed me how love can be more;
With actions,
and not only words of affections.
I see a little bit more each day, what God has intended marriage to be ordained for.
And O yes, thank you for the beautiful precious diamonds that you have given to thee...
As promised, it's not one or two, but three!!! :)
HAPPY 3 YEARS ANNIVERSARY BABY!
I LOVE YOU!
A bit late. But better than never!
It is amazing how this so called special day is different- when you have TWO babies!
I received my V day pressies from my dear hub the day before- a hip yellow PURE tee and a manga on Apostle Paul's journey! Thank you baby! :)
But I have nothing for him cos I HAVENT STEP OUT OF THE HOUSE OTHER THAN FOR SERVICE AND CELL MEETINGS.... Ok, I will make up...
Anyways, the day was well spent with many valentines!
First were the parents who attended the parents connect in the morning. Well, sort of natural for me now with my new status.
I must really make special mention on my G12 brother BENJAMIN LIM.
He came especially to check on my Scooba- which we have not even touched it since we received it 3 months ago! And he hada go less than an hour later so that poor Amanda will not be alone on this special day! Boy, I was SOOOO BLESSED by him! Cos he even cleaned and taught me howda clean my Romba!
Then, were a few gals from the cluster. It was supposedly to be a young adults fellowship for a pretty big group; in the end there were only 6 ladies and a gentlemen (who was Ad). But I appreciate the small group cos it was cosy and we had some heart to heart chat with lotsa Jap goodies and ice water- since most were ladies. :)
Here is the sole pic that Ad took for the day;
I give thanks to God for the stable daily routine now; for the high S me, it is most comforting to achieve this 2 months after Lucas came.
And now he feeds 5 times in the day; sleeps from 930pm-7am (and I am going to make the last feed even earlier in the evening). I just met a cousin who bore her son two weeks after mine and is still feeding him every 2 hourly. I can't imagine that for myself!
Though I can't free myself from Luc cos he refuses to drink from the bottle-despite every effort like different teat etc. That's why I have to end his day earlier!
All I can say other than God's grace is our efforts paid off with the support and encouragement from like-minded friends.
I give thanks that LA is well-behaved nowadays. And she is doing her play-pen time very well- the fact now that I can blog and clear emails. One thing that I have battled with her after her long ago sickness episode.
Of course my dear hub; can't do all these without him! Too many things he did to note here.
Love the time offs I have! :)
It has been 2 weeks already since Lucas came.
And it is definitely easier than the first time when we became parents during LA's time!
Waking him up for his 3-hourly milk feed is easier... He sucked so vigorously that both nipples bled by fourth day! Gosh, I never knew it was that painful! Feeding him at that frequency also meant that there was little (or no) healing time before I have to endure that pain again. So thankful that the bleeding stopped by sixth day. Only God could do that.
He also sleeps better! LA had her cranky day(s) (and nights) with her cries. Lucas sleeps almost every time we put him down in his cot.
Of course, the test for me is still the constant interupted sleep on top of taking care of LA during the day. Though I am thankful that the wounds healed faster than previously so that walking around became nothing to me within a week.
For the whole of first week, we had a taste of how taking care of two meant before our confinement nanny came last Sat. No joke man! But we were thankful that LA is so well trained in her routine such that we have 6hrs break in the day and the whole night on our own with Lucas only.
The nanny is also a blessing cos she does almost everything! All the household chores, cooking, taking care of Lucas (other than feeding of course!). And our fear of LA not accustomed to her was unfounded. She played with her, bathed and put her to her naps.
My dear hub definitely has been a tremendous blessing! Took leave to support me- day and night, waking up with me even for night feeds. Took care of LA in the day.
Even to the point of shedding blood!
His nose bled one night and fainted on the floow before going into concusion. Felt so helpless then with all my first aid knowledge gone. Love my baby!
