SALE SEASON !

The winter sales has come. There are sales all over Europe! From clothes, to hardware! I haven't bought any clothes this year, as I still have plenty to get through! Seriously I think my interests have shifted to house things - things to make my life easier!

I did manage to pick pick up a few good buys that my next child will hopefully, put to good use! Well I still can use the Food warmer for Edison now, when we travel or happen to be out for the day! And then theres my new nursing bras which were a bargain at just 7.90€! They look and feel quite good, and seem like they would be supportive. The cheapest I've seen in Singapore, is also SGD29.90, which is double the price! Too bad, I only manage to get two of the bras. All the ones on the shelf were damn big! Made me feel so small!

Here are some of my good buys:
The original price of this infant carrier/car seat was 49.90€, but was slashed to 26.90€!
Bought the bottle warmer at 39.90€ ( Not sure if this was normal price or sale price, but still think its a must especially when travelling!)
I also bought a feeding chair, but couldn't find a picture of it online, so can't show it off! Hahaha! Well I got it for one of my best friend's lil gal! 2 more months till I get to go back for our home trip. By then, baby Isabelle would be around 7 months! Hopefully Linda (Isabelle's mom), will be able to go without a feeding chair until then!
I know with Edison, he was a horror, and still is when it comes to meal times! I remember, he was 4 and a half months old when I tried to get him to take his first cereal. I ended up changing my mind and, waited for another month until he was just over 5 months old, then I tried again, he wasn't any better! hahaha! He really is those "play comes first" type.
The other night, Jeff and I were discussing about the education system in Singapore. I really hope that I wont have to see my children go through so much stress.
I really believe that, just as it is important for children to receive a sound education, so is being able to play and be stress free, like a child is by nature. Imagine, we adults, be it when we start working, or if not, like me......a mother and a wife, the amount of stress we face. Imagine if you had high levels of stress in your life since childhood. That's sad! Of course some stress is uncontrollable.

Web Banner is up!

Finally found the motivation to make my own web banner. I am damn lazy when it comes to all these! Its not that I dont have the interest, but I guess time is also such a contraint.
I don't have the time to sit in front my laptop, unless its after my precious goes to bed. Well, nevermind, hopefully I will get it looking uniquely mine.....oneday?!

I am really very sleepy after all this.....hahaha, Jeffrey and Edison are long, fast asleep. I guess as it is a Saturday tomorrow, and I'm planning to go out, I'd better keep this post short.
Tomorrow, I need to do a small grocery shopping for:
  1. Fish
  2. Potatoes
  3. Spinach
  4. Carrots
  5. Chicken

We're going to have Fish Curry this week. I really have to start getting through my packets of curry (1 and a half bags), as the expirey dates are approaching. Funny, I just realised that since I came back from my holidays (2 months), I have only cooked curry once! Starting to crave for curry =P

Goodnight!

My first post...

Yeah, hopefully this blog wont be a halfway thing for me. I havent really kept a blog since 8 years ago! Really am quite behind in how to fancy this little blog of mine, but that shouldn't stop me!
