Fun with medicine

Thanks for all well wishes, for us. We wish you the same too, to be in the pink of health before the arrival of CNY.

The boys are indeed getting better and today, Korkor no longer release smelly-watery yellow poo. That ends the misery of forcing them to drink so much of medicine, especially the “plasticky smell” medical powder sachet. Although they are only having flu and coughing now, drinking only 2 types of medicine is a bliss.

The boys love to play with the syringe. Tricking them to take medicine becomes easy this way. Of course they are smart that they would not drink those sweet syrup so we alternate a few syringes with plain water (it is easy as my boys love plain water).

A typical day of a SAHM with twin boys

As the boys (now at 19 months) hardly nap now (only once a day), I no longer enjoy long online working hours. For the 2 hours nap, I have to reply emails, enquiries, update worksheet when receive order, kepo-ing and visit my friends in FB, take pictures, edit them and then upload the products and my blog pictures, snap the pads, make arrangement and pack things for shipping, go out run errand, pick up stocks from my tailor, and finally blog, chat, bake (if I have time)!

*Now you see*

For instant, this is what they did when I want to take picture of my sling for my website. As they just recovered from their flu and cough and have better appetite recently, now they both look almost the same again! Gosh, even myself can’t even recognise who is who now!

*Now you don’t*

As they were playing at the grill door, blocking my lighting, kept on appearing in my many camera clicks, then go play on the electric plugs (sigh….modern plugs are situated so much lower now at the risk of children touching them), we shooed them away.

“WAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!”

And this is what happen usually when I am in a rush to get things done, so that I can meet delivery and reply mails. I got stuck afterward for hours, trying to soothe my *si beh cheung hei* boys down, nurse them, coax them and finally by the time they fell asleep, their “want-to-play” sister is back from school again!

So now you know why it is so hard to get just one simple email or quotation replied from SAHM like me. Having a maid is not much better when it comes to managing the boys as they are also older now, and know who to choose to carry them. 

Breastfeeding Pacifying twins @ 19 months

Tell you, they even pakat to suckle together, face to face, play, giggle and laugh while suckle from my poor boobs. If the first one let goes of my poor overly-dry dangling boob, he will ask another to “tutup baju” also. But if the other half refuse, one will get very *boh-kam-wan* and continue suckle for comfort at his side until there is no ending for me :(
