So fuuny. Love the "Dog Com Dog My" quote.

My mom once tried to buy some perfume for herself, but she forgot the name of the perfume. She kept saying to the salesgilr, "ala, yg nama dia...internal? external?"

At last they figured it out. She wanted to buy CK's Eternity.

Haiya.

It is very funny.

My mum have the same trouble. We called Claudia pacifier dummy but my mum called it "thumbi" (our Indian friend).
So she always asked Claudia "Where is your thumbi??".

MIL is fine cause she is an Australian.

Do not promise if you not sure you can do it

I was already Zzzzzzzz when hubby came back last night. He walked to the bed side and told me to wake him up at 7am in the next morning. My eyes was half opened, 'ok!' This morning, after feeding Sebatian at 7am, i still slumber going down stairs, had breakfast, iron hubby's pants.... At 8am, as usual, wake hubby up. He was too tired and asked me to give him another wake up call after 5 mins. I said, 'ok!' After 5 mins, hubby woke up and look at the clock, 'Oh shit! 8+! I have a meeting this morning!' Alamak............I totally forgot about that! Seems like an alarm clock is more reliable than a busy + forgetful lady :p

I give him 1 stick (3oz) of frozen milk everyday and reserve 3oz of the fresh milk to go to the freezer. April and May stock is really little cuz that time i thought my EBM stock was too much, it reached 150 x 3oz = 450 oz, it occupied all the space in the freezer. So i also relex lar, didn't plan the stock lar, after that realised a lot of EBM already expired, so quickly build up the stock again. So June stock increases. I am so proud to be a nursing mom, being able to give...
