20 things that change when you have a baby

I found this @ Babycenter website. Definitely true for me, all 20 of them :)
Do enjoy this mommies out there!

Everyone warns you that having a baby will change your life. Sure, you'll have less money (and sleep), and a lot more responsibility. But when the centre of your universe shifts to your new baby, there's much to celebrate too:

• You discover an inner strength you never realised you had.

• You accept that the last 15 pregnancy pounds you can't seem to shift are absolutely worth it.

• You don't need a clock any more - your baby now sets your daily schedule.

• You respect and love your own parents in a new way.

• Any pain your baby suffers feels much worse than your own.

• You don't mind going to bed at 9pm on a Friday night.

• Your heart breaks much more easily.

• You discover how much there is to say about one little baby tooth.

• You look at your baby in the mirror instead of yourself.

• You're no longer disgusted by babies' bodily functions - in fact, you're fascinated by them (hooray, a poo!)

• The sacrifices you thought you'd made to have a baby no longer seem that big a deal.

• You respect your body ... finally.

• You realise that a baby's comforter has magical powers!

• You give parents with a screaming baby an "I-know-the-feeling" look, instead of a "Can't-they-shut-him-up?" one.

• You make time for one more baby hug and kiss, even if it means you'll be late.

• You realise that it's possible to love a complete stranger.

• You learn that taking a shower is a luxury, never mind a trip to the hairdresser's.

• You finally get to speak to the shy neighbour in your street, because you've got a baby in your arms.

• You find that things that once seemed important are now meaningless.

• Every day is a surprise.

July 2011 updates

July 2011 was the most important month and yet I don't have even a single entry last month! How can this happen? (It always happen laaaa, don't be too surprised). Well the truth is that I was concentrated on my Shaklee blog and totally forgot about this blog already...huhuhu

Ok la let's have a gist of happenings in July 2011, according to the sequence from beginning of the month until the end...

6 - 7 July: Singapore trip - Universal Studios and Restoran Zam Zam (for the murtabak and nasi beryani terbaikkk) to be exact


10 July: Hubby's birthday lunch treat @ Victoria Station Jln Ampang (as usual); sorry gambar birthday boy takde, ade gambar budak tecik je yg tgh boring tunggu food, appetizer je baru sampai...huhu


11 July: Sneak peek to our new home @ Taman Seri Bangi, Seksyen 8, BBB; not a big house but we're so happy to finally set foot on our very first property (curik2 set foot sbb gate tak kunci - actually kunci tak dpt lagi...hahaha)
 

 19 July: Alhamdulillah :) the day we knew that we are pregnant (yes I use 'we' here coz hubby got all the pregnancy symptoms as well, worse than me to be exact...pity him...huhu, it's ok laling we're all in this together! hihi)


 23 July: My very first Shaklee bonus cheque! It's just RM96.72 but it's a free money man! Malas2 sahaja pada bulan Jun dpt jugak sedikit rezeki...Alhamdulillah. Definitely aim for more for July's bonus, insyaAllah :)


Yeah, I know I don't do justice to all these 5 major updates of July by putting them all in a single entry with 1-2 sentences description. If I were a bit rajin I already got myself at least 5 entries for July, no?hehehe dream on la...hahaha and yes, I'll try my best to have an exclusive entry for each happening especially on the Universal Studios Singapore trip. The memories are slipping away bit by bit. Wajib buat entry khas utk kenangan indah ini :) jiwangs laks ;p definitely kenangan indah coz Izma was really enjoying herself there and definitely have to go there again (and again :)), boleh kan hubby laling? *wink*
