Baby Chloe and Mama have officially ended the breastfeeding relationship on the 13th July 2009. Both of us enjoyed the experience even though Mama had a little hard time at the beginning. Without BF, Mama will continue to keep the bonding strong with Baby Chloe forever and ever because Mama loves Baby Chloe very much. MUAKZ!

Blogging Topics
My friend asked me two days ago how come I am not updating my blog as frequent as before. Well, the very first answer was simply because I am no long expressing anymore and I am have stopped breastfeeding since two weeks ago. So, no time spent for pumping means no time to blog. Plus, I am really a little busy. You must be wondering why since I no longer need to spend time for pumping? Yeah, because I no longer need to rush home to feed Baby Chloe, I have been going to Yoga class with my mum at Sri Gombak. Also, AGAIN! I DO NOT HAVE A PROPER PC/LAPTOP at home that makes me want to blog. LOL. MAC BOOK!!!! I want MAC BOOK!
In fact, there is so many topics that I would like to blog. Every single day, there is always some news of various topics that I want to express my thoughts :-
1) How global warming affect our children?
2) The choice of food our children?
3) Nanny or Not? Maid or Not?
4) Working mum or Full Time Mum
5) Dietary Chart for my baby?
6) Exercise to get rid of the flabby belly?
7) Plastic Surgery - Tummy Tucker or Not?
8) Innie? Outies? How did pregnancy affect my life?
9) Time for myself or Time for my children
10) Lacking of Love from Hubby - stolen heart!
Wow.... This is not an exhaust list, there are so many other topics that I would like to blog about. Expressing how I feel, what I can do etc etc etc. Hahahaha.... Maybe it's good that I listed some out. Maybe I can try blog the above 10 topics first before carrying with a new topic? LOL... See first!!!!!

My Husband fall in love with a girl!!!!!!
*sigh*
Ever since this girl came into our relationship, my husband has not been loving as before already. It surprised me when I first met this girl, she is pretty & attractive. I couldn't get my eyes off her, her beauty is so unique. Besides getting myself to admire her, I couldn't help it but to fear of losing my hubby to her. How can I beat her?
Knowing the girl's existence, I always try to control myself from being so jealous. Because I know very well that jealousy will make me loose this battle immediately. But, I JUST CAN'T HELP IT!
He loves her so much that he could totally ignore me. He is praising her all the times, he is admiring her beauty every day. He never miss telling me how pretty are her eyes every morning, and never fail to repeat how much he loves her every night. Hubby never even care about how I feel while praising other girl than me. arghhhhh.... He opens the car door for her every time, he helps her carry all her bags (and he always complained when I ask him to carry mine), he happily gives up his workout session when the girl needed him (and he never quit his workout for me!). Oh my gosh, it's getting crazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He spent all his money buying all she wants to her and ignore my pathetic request of a WALLET***
Baby Chloe has stolen my hubby's heart totally! There is not an inch of space to have me in his heart! ANGRY! JEALOUS! UNFAIR!
LUCKILY, I have total control of Baby Chloe!!!! Wuahahahaha....
P/S : *** Dar Dar, WALLET must be LV or GUICCI ok? :P

Crawling Now!
Baby Chloe is now at 7 months and 3 weeks, she is going to be 8 months in a week time. She started to turn and flip freely at her 6th month, and she could move backwards by kicking her legs about a month ago. I was waiting for her to CRAWL FORWARD! Finally, Baby Chloe was crawling FORWARD while attempting to grab a 3Litter Water Bottle from her Papa yesterday. Hahaha...
Yes, Baby Chloe is an ambitious girl. She wanted to hold a 3Litre Bottle and she wanted to flip my "Shopaholic & Baby" while I was reading it. Haha.... She is way too curious just like other babies, her toys could never divert her attention away from remote control, Papa's glasses, 3Litre Water Bottle, my book, whatever objects that do not look like toys to her! Still a little to young to judge her personality. However, I could somehow feel she is a rather demanding person. When I take away anything that she's holding, she would cry aloud or scream to show her frustration. She would immediately stop crying when she got what she wanted. *sigh*
Baby Chloe is not really Crawling very smoothly. She could move herself forward a little by a little slowly. Haha... but when she feels tired, she will start to cry and notify me "it's time to carry me!" She is very restless, she can never stop moving left and right, back and front all the times. While sitting on the floor, she would flip and turn and position herself in a crawling mode. Sometimes she would try out some Yoga Style like "downward facing dog" and "cobra". Haha...so cute!!! Whenever she is placed in her walker, she would start running and chase after Mei Mei (my cute little dog). Poor Mei Mei, Because of Baby Chloe, Mei Mei is always hiding underneath the Dining Table to avoid Baby Chloe. *LOL* Even when I hold her, she can never stop moving! She turns left and right to grab whatever objects that she can put into her mouth. Yeah...Teething now! So far, she is having two teeth, I am expecting another two more in another one month time. (Well, suppose to be la.... every child's development is different! I am not surprise if she is not getting the other two teeth as what I expected...My cousin's son got his firth tooth almost at his 12th month.)
I love my Naughty little Princess!! Muakz!

Fitfor2 Vs. Gymboree
Baby Chloe is a little unfriendly to new faces/strangers. Well, in a way is good so that she would cry aloud if there is stranger attacked!! Haha, but it can also be classified as unsociable & unfriendly!!!!
I always wanted to bring her to those Baby Classes for exposure purpose. Perhaps some would say it is too young for a 7 months old Baby for an "exposure", but some strongly recommended me to start as early as possible (even from BIRTH!!!) as 80% of brain cells will developed by the age of 5. hmm.... EXPOSURE! Anyway, I thought it is a good idea to join these classes. It can helps her to learn fast/more, it can also encourage bonding since participation of parents are compulsory. Furthermore, it can help her to make more friends, look for more fun in life while learning at the same time. :P sounds terrific to me!
So, I decided to give it a try at Fitfor2 (Baby Musikgarden 1) & Gymboree (Gymboree II). I get to know Fitfor2 from my pregnancy yoga classes, I had my Pregnancy Yoga there and it was good. Gymboree is highly recommended by Hubby Best Friend (Mr. & Mrs. & Junior Tiger) as Junior Tiger joined Gymboree since very young age until now (I think he is now 15 months old?!!). Baby Clive (Junior Tiger) is definitely friendlier than Baby Chloe, he has no fear with stranger and he knows how to share which I think it is important!
Below is my personal evaluation after a trial class :-
1) Fitfor2 has only Saturday Class 3.15pm which is the Baby Musikgarden where it introduces Music & Rymthm to Babies. Whereas Gymboree has more selection in the classes e.g. Play, Music etc etc. (too many to be listed out) and it has both Saturday & Sunday class. GYMBOREE gains a point here.
2) Fitfor2 lacks of Participants, during the trial class, we were only two families. Gymboree has about 8 - 9 families including us. For exposure & socialize purpose, GYMBOREE has a point in this too.
3) I prefer Gymboree's Instructors/Teachers. Fitfor2's teacher is making a lot of untrue assumption. For instance, she said let Baby hold the rattle and learn to roll the rattle, so I had Baby Chloe tried it then she was like "NO NO NO, Don't expect her to roll it now!" Hello? What are you talking about? I was trying to get Baby Chloe into mood to enjoy the class, then she made assumption that I was forcing my baby to adapt to the class!?? And she kept on mentioning about don't "expect your baby to do it now!" Well, I personally feel if I don't let her try she won't be able to learn?! Well, Gymboree's teachers are not exceptionally good but I PREFER GYMBOREE's teacher, so I guess a point for them.
4) Fees - Ok. I must admit that both Fees are ranging from RM30-RM35, however, I would say FITFOR2 is more flexible in the sense that it charged by the class not by month, and all I need to do is to purchase 12 classes where I get a card, a class a chop kinda system. Gymboree is more complicated and I think it is more expensive in terms of fees. To be honest, GYMBOREE is more equipped and the set up is really meant for babies & children, so personally I think it is worth paying a little bit more for the equipments (anyway, it is not much of the different - just the package system which make Gymboree sounds unaffordable.).
Haha...perhaps I had my mind set which ended up such a bias comments. Haha....Well, like i said IT IS MY PERSONALLY EVALUATION.
After the trial class at GYMBOREE on last sunday, Papa has signed up for the RM1980.00 Package which includes something like below:-
1) 55 Classes
2) 10 Play Gym Vouchers
3) 2 Years Member Fees (One year is RM150.00)
4) Voucher for Merchandise items RM100.00
5) Birthday Voucher worth of RM100.00
6) 1 T-shirt
Ok. Baby Chloe. Mama & Papa is gonna attend the class together with you Every Sunday 2.50pm for a 45 minutes PLAY CLASS. Happy Playing!!!

Baby Chloe's Porridge Choice
I think about a month ago, I have told my maid to add in a piece of Lean Pork or Chicken in Baby Chloe's porridge for better taste. Apparently, Baby Chloe enjoys it more now and she could actually finish it all which is almost equivalent to a 3/4 full of rice bowl.
However, it is not really my idea to let Baby Chloe to have Meat in her meal. But...sigh.... everyone says I should..... everyone includes my mum, my granny, my colleagues, my friends.... If I don't give, they would say I am over protective la, paranoid la...blah blah blah...
I think because of the changes in Baby Chloe's meal which includes Two Semi-Solid Meals, 4 - 5 feeds of Formula, 1 - 2 times of breastfeed - Baby Chloe's bowel texture is changing from very watery to soft stickly texture. Dr. Patrick said it is normal so I treat it as a process of growth. :P
So far I have tried the combination of Skinless Chicken Breast/Lean Pork + Rice (No salt) :-
1) Carrot
2) Potato
3) Pumpkin
4) Plain
Actually, I was not in control of the combination maybe i should say I didn't really make an effort to pick the recipe for Baby Chloe. After a thought today, I think I should decide on the menu and get my maid to follow it instead of letting them mix what they want. Ya...Ok...I must do it!

White Room Studio - Singapore
I was super busy after I came back from Siem Reap, rushing for a tender which the closing date was on the 1st of July. And finally, I am totally relax for the time being. For the past few days, I spent sometimes to post some photos of Baby Chloe which were taken by White Room Studio (Elaine & Dan) during April 2009.
One Day after the post, I received many many many comments about Baby Chloe's photos. :P I feel so proud that everyone loves Baby Chloe, hahaha...she might look super cute in the photos, but she can be very NASTY in reality. A spoilt Baby!!!!
Anyway, would like to share some of the great photos done by White Room Studio :-
They are having very good deals for portrait packages, however White Room Studio is from Singapore. Perhaps pay a visit to www.white-roomstudio.com, and enquire details from them whether arrangement to KL is possible or not? Airasia has cheap tickets, pay for their tickets + plus their package price still consider very GOOD DEAL with such a high class professional job. :P
