Awesome Finds: Nappies & Baby Milk for less!

Oh another fabolous find! I found this from a friend of mine via facebook. She had posted it on her page for all mummies and i'm so glad that i clicked that link. (Ruby, if you're reading this, thank you!) So this has got to be the best online purchase thus far! This seller carries a whole bunch of dirrerent nappies you could ever want. From Drypers, Huggies, Mamy Poko to Pet Pet. She has them all! What's even more exciting is that she carries popular brands of milk powder too! You can see Frisco, Similac, Gain IQ just to name a few. So i made a purchase with her on Saturday and managed to collect my goods from her yesterday evening.(Sunday) Can you imagine? Those 3 items cost me $96! In stores, a 1.6kg of Mamil Gold Step 1 would cost about $72 while Huggies Ultra in a pack of 40 would cost about $17++ almost $18. In her store, i bought the milk for $68 and the nappies for $14 a packet!! That's about $12 in savings!!!      **She does not carry the pack of 64 for the Ult

Awesome Finds: Munchkin Foodies Store

Eeks! I thought i had posted this last night! Sorry for the delay. (Before we jump right into this post, i'd like to apologise for the low quality of the pictures. Its 1.06am and i just took pictures of the items. But i hope i managed to tweak it a little so it comes out fine.) Anyways, i found this online shop, Munchkin Foodies Store a while ago but because Kiara was not at the age yet for snacks/chippies, i had to wait till she was. I did buy some from Cold Storage/NTUC Fairprice earlier on. In fact i started Kiara on some biscuits first. She loves this Take One Bite brand especially the crarrot flavoured version. Quite yummy! I started her on that when she was about 5 months. She now gobbles it down like a Pro! :p After that, i introduced her to Gerber Baby Puffs. She does not know how to hold them with her thumb and forefinger yet, so i help pop it into her mouth. She does however hold her bigger biscuits, that is, if she's not beling lazy. (She like to just leave the whol

Baby Recipe: Potato, Sweet Potato & Tuna Pasta

A few days ago i decided to try out a recipe i found online. It sounded delicious, well in a baby delicious sorta way! :p So let's jump right into it. Here's a list or more like pictures of the items you will need to create this dish for your bubs. I know i did not state any carrots in the title, but i did add in some, purely just for colour. Well and K loves carrots, but i added just a tiny bit. So there you have; Heinz Baby Pasta Stars (You can get this from any leading supermarkets) Potatoes Sweet Potatoes Carrots (If you want) Tuna in water or flakes if it's easier   So just chop up the items and pop them into a pot of boiling water. Chopping them up to smaller pieces makes it easier to mash up later when they're fully boiled. While your vegetables are boiling you can start doing your pastas in a seperate pot. For one serving you can just use 1 tablespoon worth of pastas. Up to you if you prefer the stars version or the spaghetti. While waiting for everything to boi

Introducing Texture

I was looking forward to Kiara turning 7 months old with much enthusiasm. Not only did that mean she was half way through the year with only 5 more months till she turns 1, but that also meant that i could finally change her diet! Introducing texture has been such an exciting experience. Both for Kiara and for myself. By texture i mean, having more lumps/chunks in the food. Prior to this, Kiara's food has always been pureed. It has been a smooth consistency with no lumps or chunks what so ever. I started out with trying out Heinz 7-9 months premade food in the jars. In one of my previous post, i stated that Heinz goes by colour coordinating the jar tops. So 7-9 months is the red jar tops. These are just 3 flavours i am showing you. They have about 3/4 more here i believe. Kiara has very quickly picked her favourites. I really thought she'd love the Cheesy Bolognaise but to my surprise, she really and i mean REALLY, loves her Pumpkin & Couscous! Just to show what i mean by c

SPOTTED: Unfurgivable!

Earlier this year, I went for my first Brazilian wax (Read about it here !)! And boy, was it an experience! Since then, I have liked my nether regions to be completely hmmm... Barren. Heh. So I have taken the permanent route. Here's something for you ladies who want go fur-free too! Strip and PETA have formed an alliance in the battle against all fur! From now till December 31st, Brazilian waxes are going at $40 each (U.P. $58), of which $1 will be given to PETA. :DDD

I've been on Hiatus!

I do apologise for the lack of updates. I know i've never stated here in my blog but if you follow me on twitter, you would know that i had started up school again. I've been taking night classes since the end of August. Last week, i had to sit for 2 examination papers. Oh the horror of studying for that! I've literally been pulling out my hair! I won't be getting my results till End January, early February. Funny thing is, i'll be sitting for 2 more examination papers in early February. Oh boy! It's been so exhausting studying and taking care of a child at the same time. I remember feeling so mentally drained. I would pass out at 3am after studying just feeling like my brains are fried! I'm glad that i'm done with the first phrase. Now to stick my nose in my books even more till the next papers. I've a week's break now. So i'm going to be typing out a few posts. Do stay tunes for those! To the friends who has taking the time off to hep tutor

What defines a good Mother?

Compared to Westerners and Europeans, Asians tend to be more closed-minded. Even speaking about sex is such a taboo. Seeing young parents, especially Mothers here, are somewhat frowned upon. Whereas i find it tends to be slightly more accepted in places out of Asia. I wouldn't say i had a very traditional Asian upbringing. I mean i'm sure most of you have heard stories about how in Asian homes, children stay in their family home till they marry. As for me, i moved out of mine at 18. Anyways, what all this brings me to is that, i've been able to make my own decisions and live by them. Some were not so good decisions but as the saying goes, "If i could make my own bed, i jolly well better be able to lie in it". Now that i am a mother, the decisions i make don't only matter to me but to this little girl, whom i owe my all to give her all the world has to offer.  What really annoys me about living here in Singapore, is that people can be so bleedy vocal about thei
