You sure can guess what is that white stick he was holding.

Ok, I know, I know…I shouldn’t had introduced that sweet little round lolli to him but was thinking of keeping him still in his stroller while I shop around.

Every kids love sweety stuff. Whenever he got the chance to hold an unwrap lollipop, he will put it straight in his mouth.

Don’t worry…I don’t do that often. In fact, that was the only time he tasted lollipop. I still have one in the fridge which has yet to be discovered by him. Shhh…. *wink*

Jonathan boy’s nose bleeds this morning. I woke up around 5.30am and saw blood at his nostril but already dried up, blood stained on my pillow case and his fingers. I guess he must have rubbed his nose against the pillow while tossing around and wiped with his fingers.

Don’t know what triggered the bleeding. Could it be body heatiness? Food? Hem…the only new food I gave him yesterday was the Apollo choc stick wafers which he likes it a lot and walloped 3 packs?   Besides that, I started yesterday in giving him formula milk before bedtime. Before that, I BM him before going to bed.

Hope he has not inherited his Daddy’s nose bleed problem…

Those days, my grandparents bring us around the kampung on a bicycle like this…

Now, when  Jonathan boy sees the bicycle, he tapped at it to tell us that it’s time to go on a bicycle ride again!

P/S: More pics here.

Today of last year, I started driving independently to work. Frankly, after I got my driving license 11 years ago, I had never driven a car.  And now after one year of driving to work……

…besides driving to work and back home, I only know how to drive to my corporate office in Jln Yew and my sis’ house around Bukit Jalil.

…out of 10 times, only 2 times that I can park my car straight and within the box.

…I need a very big space to reverse the car.

…I am still afraid of narrow roads.  I have to wait till the opposite cars are cleared before I dare to go forward.

…I have zero knowledge in pumping petrol.  My petrol tank never gets empty…thanks to Darling.

…I only know how to push the gear to “P”, “N” and “D”. As long as the car is moving, who cares!

…from driving on 80 km/hour to 110 km/hour. It’s an achievement right?

…I can drop by supermart/shopping mall anytime I like. Provided they have big and ample parking lots.

Of all, I thank God that I have not met into any accident so far. 

Latest update: Darling changed company last year and so he can drop me off to work now. Yea, yea…I’ve got my “chauffer” back. I am definitely one blessed wife…
