baby
I’ve started my leave from work this week so I have some time to tidy up the house, get the laundry and ironing done and do some nesting before Baby E’s arrival. But other than the chores front, I think we are pretty prepared for her arrival with the hospital bag in the car and towel on my seat just in case my waterbag breaks. ...
Name Reveal – Baby Elise
A number of you have been asking if we’ve decided what to name our little babe and I believe I’ve answered some of you but also gave ambiguous answers to some because I wanted to share a “name reveal” blog post! If you’ve seen my previous blog post on our maternity shoot, some sharp-eyed friends might have already ...

Kiehl’s New Gentle Foaming Hair & Body Wash
Laurent has had a few cases of rashes on his face and body so we have always been careful in selecting his body wash and baby cream. When Kiehl’s sent us the “Baby Safe and Mommy Approved” kit to try, I was really glad to read that Kiehl’s baby collection is paraben-free, paediatrician-tested, dermatologist-tested, mommy-approved ...

My First Mother’s Day
My mum has always been telling me, Mother’s Day is nothing special, it’s just like any other day. But this year, being my first Mother’s Day as a mum, it definitely feels special. Yes, even though Laurent is too young to even understand the notion of Mother’s Day, not to mention celebrate for me. I guess it’s more ...

[Giveaway] Abbott’s #MyKidsPotential Quiz + Goodie Pack Giveaway
What was your childhood ambition? What did you want to be when you grow up? I had so many childhood dreams, I can’t quite remember which ones I was really serious about! Now that I have my own child, I can’t help but wonder what Laurent will grow up to be like, what strengths will he possess and what profession will he undertake in the future. ...

[Blog Train] Day in a Life of…
If you have been following my blog, you would have known that Laurent has already started on Infant Care and no, I’m not leading a tai tai life (sadly). I started working the very first day we left Laurent at the Childcare, which means I’ve officially been a full-time working mum (FTWM) for more than a month! Days as a Stay at Home ...

Baby L – Starting Infant Care
It has been less than 2 weeks since Laurent started going to infant care and I am already missing the precious mornings we spent snuggling in bed (yes, even with his feet and hands all over my face), his excited squeals in the bathtub during his morning baths and hearing his cute little snores while I’m pumping during his naps. I’ve had the ...

Baby L – Daily Routine during my Maternity Leave
Another month just flashed past! Happy 4 months old to my baby boy!! Looking back, I must say I really enjoyed this month with Laurent. He has become (even) more chatty so he is always keeping me entertained. He has also achieved 2 milestones this month – sleeping through the night and flipping on to his tummy for the first time. A ...

Baby L – The First 3 Months as “First Time Parents”
The eleventh day of every month now holds a special meaning to me as Laurent will be turning another month older with each passing 11th 🙂 I used to have the time (and energy) to update my blog almost weekly, but now, I’m just thankful I can do a monthly update. Laurent is 3-month old today and looking back, I felt like we’ve came a long way! ...
