Prostitute or not, I miss my maid!!!
My baby is turning out to be like Charlottes’s baby in Sex and the City, no wonder she hides herself in the kitchen store room to cry.I can totally see myself doing that!
This morning, I woke up at 730am to start preparing some stuff for dinner. If I leave it till after the monster wakes up, forget it. Then I had a quick bite and checked online to see if I could make a cinema booking. Before I could even pee, the monster woke up. Boobed her, then made her breakfast, to which she refused. Tried something else. Refused. Tried something else. Refused. Fine, whatever. I cleaned up the kitchen whilst she continued to make a mess on her high chair (it’s in the kitchen now since that is where I spend most of my time!) and then brought her to have a bath after her breakfast of ONE COOKIE.
By then, it was almost 11am and she was cranky already so I boobed her again and tried putting her to sleep. She boobed the entire time for an hour off and on, off and on, whilst rolling about in bed curious to touch this and that, crawling to all four corners of the mattress.
By noon, she had still not slept and I was starving again. I got up to get some water as I had not had a single drop of water since the day before. Oh, I forgot to mention, when I finally had time to go pee, the bathroom was filled with a HUNDRED, more than a HUNDRED ants. Yup, those horrid black wiggly things. They were all over the counter and crawling from T2’s bib. Great. In her crankiness during her bath, I’d forgotten to put her dirty bib away and now I had to deal with those darn ants. I got a wet cloth and wiped them all down, then drowned them in a big tub of water. I couldn’t care less!!!
Then I came out to the kitchen again to feed her some porridge. This time she ate a little.
Get me outta here!!
The hollering finally stopped when I boobed T2 to sleep at about 1pm, after which I quickly got online to book our cinema tickets. Success, finally! I rushed to the kitchen to gobble down some instant cereal and came back to bed. If I leave her on her own, she sleeps less. If I am beside her, she sleeps more. So I stayed beside her and did some posts whilst she slept.
Then we were late to pick T1 up from school because T2 only woke at 2pm. Never mind. Drove like a maniac to pick T1 up leaving my handbag and diaper bag behind but it didn’t matter since I wasn’t going anywhere. Came home and T1 said she wanted pancakes. I quickly showered T1 (even though she can shower herself but she manja…), then cooked T2’s porridge. Fed T2, then served T1 her pancakes by which time it was already 3.30pm. I made some maggi mee whilst T2 was hollering again the entire time and I told her to SHUT UP and please let me just have something to eat in PEACE!!!
But no…….the hollering wenton, “Mamamama…MAMAMAMA…..MAMAMAMAAAAAA!!!!!” I know she was sleepy but I needed to eat something.
So here I am typing away with baby screaming in the background (it is damn stressful) whilst I eat my maggi mee.
Am I depressed? You bet!
But when she’s with the Hubs alone? No problem! She is an angel!!! So the Hubs wonders what all the big deal is about.

Hmmm….I was away for a little more than 24 hours for the past 1 day or more (balik kampung, btw, thanks for the message you left for me, dear) and during that time, I got sms updates from Hubby telling me how my girl ate so much, how she was so well-behaved, how she listened to his instructions and her grand-aunt’s (yea, thank god, for my aunt who helped out when I was away).
Wahhh…..how come when I am taking care of her, she not like that?
I don’t know what’s with girls and their daddies…. 😉
aawww…this is just not fair right? the children ALWAYS an angel with their daddy. hmmph!
This sounds like my day. even with a maid, it does not help much as I have 2 monsters here (plus one BIG monster when she is back from school). Not only mess of food trail everywhere, we endure lots of fighting too (one stop, but another one start to cry!)
