懷孕第三期與小公主新學期

一直懶著,這篇網誌到現在才寫,請原諒我這個懶洋洋的孕婦。

不經不覺,又過了三個多月,現在已經是最後一個懷孕階段,很多東西仍然未買,寶寶的房間只準備了一半,還有大量雜物需要搬到遊戲房。希望未來的兩個星期,可以買齊BB車,BB車座椅等的必需品,然後開始洗BB衫和作最後的佈置。

小寶寶現在31周半,醫生說有4磅重,生長線的59%,是中碼BB,成長良好。每天都被好動寶寶左踢右踢我的肚子和胃,有時候痛得我半夜醒來。小人兒重重地壓在我的膀胱上,害我每隔半小時都上廁所去,還要被肥仔爸爸取笑我,好可憐呢!

小公主們則非常興奮,每天上校巴前,都會先對著媽媽肚子說:「寶寶再見,姐姐很愛你啊!」然後才向媽媽揮手道別,快樂地上校巴去。二公主最愛摸媽媽肚子,尤其當寶寶在肚內郁動,她會用手輕輕按下去,像是隔著肚皮「High Five」一樣。大公主則非常期待可以做小媽媽,自告奮勇會做夜間小看護,若寶寶哭叫會立即前往查看,有需要就來找媽媽幫忙,讓我半夜不用跑來跑去,休息多一點。(多貼心的小人兒,這份心意讓媽媽聽著也覺得安慰。)

趁著現在有點空閒,很想織小帽子,外套和被子給小寶寶,也要織一些給小公主們,免得她們呷醋。但人總是懶洋洋的,提不起勁,腦袋空白一片的沒有構思,但時間無多,再不動工就恐怕不能完成,要好好鞭策一下自己才可以。

今天,小公主們已經上學兩星期,媽媽非常享受這個寧靜的新時間表。趁著還有精神和時間,將在這兩個月盡量到學校做義工,直至寶寶出世。今早先到學校圖書館上訓練班,很喜歡圖書館老師和其他義工家長,很容易相處又健談,完全不像首次見面呢!

然後,媽媽到大公主的班房讀故事書,小朋友們超留心,反應良好,是一班好乖的一年級學生。下星期開始到圖書館做義工,大公主超期待由媽媽幫她借書呢!

忙了一個早上,下午找肥仔爸爸吃午餐。終於試了口碑不俗的南非Fushion餐廳,味道很好,待應服務專業周到,非常滿意。難得在平日的下午,可以在環境不俗、食物和招呼周到的地方享受短暫的二人世界,好開心又充實的一天。

  
一直以為,她們都上全日制學校,我自己單獨在家會很寂寞,整天掛念著她們。然而,寶寶即將在兩個月後出世,深深明白將會面對無盡的無眠晚上,所以很珍惜這難得的自由空間。畢竟,自從奶奶身體欠佳後,我已經近3年沒有放過假,連一小時的自我空間也沒有享受過。

現在她們上學的大半天,都變成媽媽自由時間,收拾家居後不會立即打回原形,屋企變得企理一點。空閒下來,可以靜靜地看書,所以最近瘋狂地看了近十本書(實在太美好了)。一直沒有時間看的電視劇,終於可以一口氣地看完,非常難得。

然後,走到校巴車站接她們回家,聽著她們在學校遇到的各種新奇事物和趣事。她們享受沒有父母管束,但有新東西學習的好玩校園,媽媽又有自由空間。我們各自都有新生活習慣,大家都享受其中,感恩。

不幸之中的大幸

2015年1月10日 (星期六)
老爺奶奶帶我們去試一間快餐店,因為有大大杯Frozen Custard, 讓大家可以在同一地方吃甜品.薯條不錯,三文治一般,甜品的朱古力也不夠,有點失望.不過,估不到最失望的還不是食物,而是不負責任的人.

這是媽媽的免治三文治.

飯後甜品時間,Custard好滑,但配料則一般.IMG_0930

媽媽一家周日留在家中,沒有踏出過家門.周一早上,送完大公主上校巴,赫然發現七人van被撞,心痛不已.回家後通知肥仔老公,再致電保險公司.由於肇事者不顧而去,我們要自付維修費.幸好,買了保障,否則要全數自付就更可憐.表面看來,只需要換外殼和重新噴油,但車行今天通知我們除了外在看到的問題,我的愛車還受了”內傷”,現正與保險公司協調中.看來,至少到下星期才有機會帶它回家.

雖然仍然一肚氣,令媽媽一直精神緊張,但仍很感恩我們一家人都不在車上,沒有人受傷.唯有安慰自己破財劏災.IMG_0963

2014大事回顧

2014年,我們家庭發生了很多大事,有喜有悲,各人都因而成長了不少.

奶奶病況:
病情一直反覆不定,時好時壞,不斷進出醫院的奶奶,經多次手術及療養,現在穩定康復中,極感恩.

太老爺:
身體每況愈下,11月離我們而去,返回天家,與太奶奶相聚.他是一個極慈悲的老人家,是他教導我隨心而為,做自己喜歡的事,不要為別人而活,喜歡的就多吃,吃不下就別勉強.同樣道理:吃東西如是,生活如是,做人如是.我會緊記教誨,快樂地活出精彩人生.

與太老爺相處的時間不多,但第一次見面,他待我如親孫女一樣,有如我已離世多年的親外公一樣的愛錫我,所以我很尊敬和愛惜他.他的離去,有如再次失去外公一樣的心痛.願他在天家得享安息. Continue reading

Just some pre-birthday thoughts

A few more days, it will be my birthday and it will be a special one. Not like there will be any crazy celebration or anything, I just really happy to be where I am right now. I feel contained and full of creative energy, eager to learn and dip my toes in different aspects.

I have a happy family, a wonderful and supportive husband, two beautiful and loving daughters, two loyal dogs, living in a comfortable home. All these happened in a very short period of time, way shorter than I could imagine. I never thought I could achieve this much at this early age, this is truly a gift from God, I am so grateful and couldn’t be more lucky.

In the last few months, a lot of good and bad things had happened and affected me and my family. Many happy and important first time events and sadly a last lifetime event for a beloved one.

With all these life events go on, I learned to cherish family and friends at a whole new level, work harder than forever in a very long time. I saw a light in me that hadn’t been burning started a little spark, it has been flickering and growing stronger.

Since motherhood, I have learned so much and the girls inspired me everyday. The ways they see the world and the trust and confidence they have in me, gave me the courage to start a new chapter in my life and overcame the fear which was the greatest weakness within my own mind.

Being a mother, I feel like nothing in this world could be more challenging and nerve wrecking. When they were infants, it was their lives and well beings all in your hands. As they grew, it is a whole new level of mental, physical, academical, emotional challenges. Some lucky days they are angels and sweet hearts, however, the majority of days feel more like fighting with at least one little handful. At the same time, moms have to control their own emotions and make sure everyone are sane and things are under control inside their households.

I used to be multitasking in all my old jobs, none of them quite measured up to this one. I love this no paid but somehow the best job in the world. There is nothing more fulfilling than watching your children grow and change everyday. I learn more about myself, my spouse through them in a daily basis. They taught me so many things in such a short time that I am amazed with the super mom power hidden in every woman.

I’m just too happy and glad to have you, my loyal readers and friends to be here to share my little crazy thoughts of the night before my birthday. I hope to update more often in the future, share more recipes, crafts and everyday life in this little corner of mine.

Wish you all a happy holiday. Stay warm and remember to tell your loved one how much you love them in a daily basis.

嘉嘉上幼稚園的第一天 (2014年8月25日,星期一)

photo (5)

轉眼5年就過去了,媽媽沒有讓小公主們上學前班,好讓她們可以盡情享受無憂無慮的童年.畢竟自己飽受填鴨教育之苦多年,明白讀書之路實在很漫長, 人生在世,真正無憂無慮的時間實在有限,那可貴的童年實在不應該浪費在”植入”知識上,反正入學後也能學懂的,就讓她們上學校才學習. Continue reading

2014 迪士尼世界假期 (第一日) Walt Disney World Vocation 7/19-7/26 (Day 1)

趁著大公主開學前夕,加上二公主的4歲生日,媽媽希望一家人可以來一次家庭旅行,讓小人兒在無憂無慮的最後一年,擁有一個畢生難忘的美好回憶.她們一直希望可以到迪士尼世界遊玩,媽媽也想讓她們看看父母相識相戀的地方,旅程由此誔生.

由於旅行一點都不便宜,媽媽本想省一點,駕車14小時去佛州.但肥仔爸爸不敢讓小公主們呆坐車上14小時,也想試測她們能否乖乖坐飛機(明明就是不捨得我們太辛苦敖車程),所以就豪出去買機票,讓旅程更完滿.爺爺也想讓我們有個順利旅程,所以幫我們湊狗仔之餘,還請司機送我們來回機場,不用擔心泊車問題和回程的疲累,好貼心.

第一次搭飛機,她們都算好乖,沒有大叫大笑,坐定定2個多小時.來回兩程都被附近的乘客讚她們乖巧,媽媽為她們感到好驕傲.001-20140719_071838 - Copy Continue reading
