old article

Yesterday was doing abit of packing and dug out some old article.. It was some article abt how to deal with toddlers with the bad behavior and kids having their pacificer... It was so long i last read it.. and true enough.. what it wrote.. BINGO.. all matches...



Genevieve is 3 years old liao.. and she rely alot on her pacifier.. We tried to wean it off.. but to no vain.. She cries alot for it.. But after i read the article.. i decided not to bother abt it liao... Expert advise that we shld ignore the habit as children esp 2years and older sucks simply due to boredom.. thus it wont last.. I agree... Emotions do add in to more sucking too.. Like when we force her to sleep.. Pacifier may be use as a comfort object to her..

HERE ARE SOME SIMPLE POINTERS TO HELP CHILDREN TO WEAN OFF PACIFIER

DOs..

Leave the child alone..
If you see that there are no jaws or dental prob... They will eventually stop on their own.. Even for those die die must have one...

Stop daytime time habit...
When they start preschool, they will stop due to peer pressure...

Do Not..

Punish or use harsh words..
By doing so.. It will upset them more and they will cling on to it even longer...

Too much Pressure...
They are still too young and if too much pressure it may cause more harm.. It may affect their emotion too.. Children use it as a way of relaxing and calming themselves.. and going to sleep..

Mayb we have force Genevieve to stop thus it makes her cling onto it till now..




Hubby and i alway think that Genevieve had been veri rough and rude.. Mayb we are over reacted.. I looked around and see the kids at her age behave about the same.. At times i cant still it but to shout and scold her.. Now I tried not to shout at her... scold her.. I tried to talk to her like i used to be.. HAVE TO BE PATIENT..

Before Lucas was born.. I always talk to her and reason with her.. Mayb i am too stress and tired thus.. my shouting gets more.. I tried to spend more time with her when Lucas is sleeping.. but sometimes i really dunno wat i can do together with her.. her toys or handicraft? Teach her to read and write.. In turn she was the one who wan to teach me..

She's not that bad as we think.. Its just that we did not put in effort.. She needs our attention and affection.. I really must admit.. We failed.. mayb tat's why she always mishave to get our attention...

Wanna to tell you

I jux wana to tell you that i am sorry and i love you alot.. I know i have been bad to you and it has been hard on you.. I am truly sorry.. You are always my love.. But what should i do to make you understand..


Since after have Lucas.. My emotion had been greatly affected... I know it had affected you greatly too... I tried to control myself but failed.. I tried to talk to you.. but i do not know whether you understand me anot or you dun wan to listen to me.. I do not want to lose my temper on you.. but you are driving me crazy..


I know i have changed.. But i want to change to better.. I am trying.. Please give me some times.. I know you need my attention.. You need me more than before.. I also know that you feels neglected... But i wana you to know..


I LOVE YOU..

back to school

Xmas is over.. New year is over.. so now it is back to school.. It will not be the same anymore.. Now Lucas will be following me to send Genevieve to school...


I have to get up earlier than before.. prepare everything as fast as i can.. of cos i also must make sure Lucas had his milk first before setting off.. Same is.. having a hard time changing Genevieve to school.. She dun wan to wear tis and tat.. Feels she is getting more rugged..


Its sure is not easy.. Not only i need to take Genevieve's stuffs and also i need carry Lucas.. His BASKET is sure heavy... But still have to go wif it..


I prefer Genevieve going to school.. Not only she can learn.. She can also mixed around wif her friends.. She wont get lonely.. Unlike at home.. She got nothing to do.. I am too tired to play wif her and all she has is the computer.. Her toys.. But if she dun keep them.. She kana scolding from me.. Haiz.. Still thinking to put her 1 more day anot...


Me really looking forward going back to Singapore.. Although prefer the lifes here.. But at least back there.. I have more people to help me look after the kids and also Genevieve wont feels lonely anymore.. She has more accompany..

Gayloard Texas

We went to Gayloard Texas with Janet' family... But you know wat.. when i reach there.. wanted to take pics... OMG.. no memory card.. SHIT.. tat time i took out to upload pics to facebook.. forgotten to put it in.. Lucky can use Janet's camera card..

It was cold tat day.. We wanted to go see the ice so we brought our thick thick jacket... But when we reach there.. They wanted us to wear their jacket.. The kids looked so cute with the jacket on...

We left the ICE early as hubby scare Lucas cold.. We wont know.. but i know he was sleep soundly.. haha... I felt we wasted the tickets.. But it was REAL COLD in there... I also wanted to take a family pic.. Lucas was asleep and so cold to carry him out to take pic.. so we never take.. i dun want to left him out..

I loved the Xmas deco inside the hotel.. It was beautiful... Somehow i wanted to take more pics.. But i feel tat i am really getting into bad shape.. my face.. and body and everythings.. the pics i took dun come out well... SAD...

I looked so UGLY...

big help

Really have to thank Janet and her hubby.. They kept me accompany when hubby was on guard duty... We had a mini steamboat.. Guess wat.. we use our rice cooker.. haha... first time using.. quite fun...


I felt so paisey.. Esp to her daughter.. Aaricia.. Genevieve was behaving like a bully.. keep pushing and lying on her.. doesnt wan to share her toys... Lucky now Aaricia is smarter.. know how to act back... When she jux came.. She dunno.. jux letting Genevieve take the toys away from her...


They also help me look after LUCAS... and he was rather cranky tat day.. They left quite late... Felt so bad so Aaricia was tired liao.. After they left.. i was wondering how to cope.. But i stll go thru liao...

Today brought Genevieve to H-Mart. pased by the bakery and she still remember tat i havent buy the cake and wanted me to buy.. I bought one cause i always wanted to help Lucas do his shower.. But after seeing hubby like tar... make me very sad.... He kept complaining he backpain.. and kept lying on the bed..

I feels so helpless... I dunno wat to do... Tell me wat wrong wif him...
