1st May

let's see, labour day... hmmm, not much... woke up in the morning, went for breakfast, had to be vegetarian, 1st lunar day. after that, went home, checked email, while children all do their own things. then Max started to be naggy, time to bathe him and let him nap.

after bathing him, he slept. Then Marcus came into the room and asked when we are going to Pizza Hut. told him to bathe, and when Max wake up, we will move off. Max must have heard us talking, because after shifting his position, he peeped from behind his pillow and gave that huge big smile, as if to say that, mum, i'm ready to go.

went to amk's pizza hut. mabel has been acting funnily today. kept laughing, it's like she says something, then she gave a short laugh... like very bimbo-ish like that. anyway, we had a great time having lunch. ordered juz nice, actually wanted to order the chicken drumlets and the ocean platter that marcus wanted, luckily never order. it was only like only the two adults eating, mabel only had half a pizza, 2 pieces of garlic bread. marcus had more slices of the pizza, finished the whole bowl of soup and 1 piece of garlic bread. good thing, lucky...

after that, we went ntuc hypermart to shop. boy, we spent $155 on grocery and stuff like that. oh my god.... must be max pampers and milk powder. bought some simple food for steamboat for dinner. oh yah, must blog this, we brought our own bags to bag our grocery. 3 bags... cool huh? people were like looking at us... wondering if it is BYOB day. but nope, i'll practise bringing my own bags for all groceries from now on. well, my 3 bags still could not contain my things, needed 2 plastic bags for the files and spiderman toys.

oh yah, speaking about spiderman. the merchandise must be making a lot of money. because marcus insist on buying some spiderman thing. i actually said no, but thought, ok, he can choose something not so expensive. at first, he chose some spider web thingy, gosh, not a nice toy to choose. in the end, i made him choose this dart thing. it's something like the web, u wear this device on your hand and then shoot darts out. no need batteries, that's the main thing. and the darts are rubberised, so it's really safe. that contributed $20 to my $155! yah, but better than the web thing, $24.

after buying all the stuff, reached home. then max is cranky again, nap time. he was sleeping... but in between, so many phone calls on my hp, on the 3rd call i received, he woke up. i was like so fed up. i wanted to do some reading, now that he woke up, i couldn't. and he only like sleep for less than an hour and it's only 4pm. how to last through to 10pm?

ok, then, so mum will come for dinner, she had packet some left over food. played xbox with marcus, 2 players one. so it was quite fun. daddy took care of max, anyway, max was in the same room, playing by himself while we are playing.

mum came, had dinner, 5th aunt and sis came as well. 5th aunt could carry max, max wasn't crying. well, babies are cute.

sometimes, i must constantly remind myself to spend equal attention on mabel and marcus. cos max really stole my heart.
