byebye diapers....!

Joice just said goodbye to diapers yesterday...I always don't feel comfortable about public toilet,its far and dirty,so I still let joice to wear her diaper pull up pants when we go out.

Yesterday, she asked to go to restrooom, took of her diapers and pee. And she said she didn't want to pee on diapers anymore...yeeyyy!!! Finally :)

I've been waiting for this moment where she can be independent and off from her diapers. She would have regular time to pee, not every time or uncontrolable, and she knows how to squat on those public toilet seats...

She's 2,5 years old now and has officialy graduated from daytime toilet training :)

What about night time,joice?? Hm...I,myself,has not ready to wake up more frequently than now ha ha...I still have broken nights because of nursing time...so,Joice,let the nature takes her part again for next step...I believe every child has her own developmental stage...so she would grow up and be more mature in each step of her age.

Congratulations Joice!!! We are so proud of you...!!

moses' first word

Nobody realized it..it happened just in sudden and didn't even noticed...first,he started to mmmmeeeemmmmeeemmm...then it sounded like emmmmaaaa,,,emmmmaaaaa then about three days ago,he pronounced it clearly: mama...mama...he opened her mouth and started to say it!!! Happy mamaa...so now...everytime he cries or asks for help,he would say mama..mama...

Aaaand,just started last night,in the middle of the night,he would cried if he awaked in the middle of night and milk time, I came to his crib and said ssshhh,and he would just call: mama..

Finally,first word has come out,and to be honest,I don't expect this early. He is only almost 9 months next week, barely can sit by himself,even though he can sit well when you prop him to sit up straight.
I can't wait to hear your second word,moses :) maybe cece...or ..papa...or pho pho...or maybe mam mam... :)

patience is really needed

Somehow someway I try managing my emotional balance. Tapi susaaahhh hikshiks sometimes I'm too emotional toward small things..

Reaksi setiap orang pasti berbeda terhadap suatu hal, for me, I really need extra patience and wisdom day by day..ada hari2 tertentu,yang secara fisik,I can't take it anymore,tapi ada juga secara mental terkikis habis oleh Joice...semakin besart,Joice semakin mengerti banyak hal, rasa ingin tau nya besar banget dan kalau belum dijajal sama dia,pasti dia ga akan berhenti mencoba...istilahnya keep on trying he he,maju terus pantang mundur. Joice cukup oke di handle secara fisik, tapi to tell her to do something...hmmmm..lately I feel like talking to the hand,alias ngomong sampe ngeces,juga ga ditanggepin. Lho gmn ga urat bekerjaa secara kuat?? Yes, she challenges my patience even more. On the other hand,moses challenges me physically. Teething dan cold and flu membuat tidur malam seperti pos jaga malam. Bangun setiap 2-3 jam,menyiksa?? Iya,karena siang hari full of activities,malam juga ga nyenyak. Siang hari lbh cepet letih,lelah,lunglai dll,like a zombie,disenggol juga marah...

O God,everyday I pray that you may give me more patience to handle things and to say correct words to others... I feel so powerless without you...my job feels like 24 endless-hours. Even my heart is full of joy,yet boringness and angriness also come sometimes....semoga Tuhan menguatkan kelemahanku ini yang jauh dari sempurna. Dan semoga my kids can obey me more he he...

weekend at home...

Yaaa mau ngapain lagi yah...we have spent saturday at home dan malamnya semua kena batuk,sampai demam. Semua dpt paracetamol dan resep batuk pilek dr dokter...

Pertama,joice yg jadi sumber carrier he he,she brought it from school maybe. Then I got infected. Had really bad coughing since thursday. Last night, moses jg kena dong oleh2nya ini...so,bertiga sehati batuk bersama, terutama malam hari. Yg lucunya ga saling terganggu, semua sudah get used sama suara batuk kaya monster itu. Krn batuk kita jenisnya berdahak kencang,batuk itu kalau ga smp kadang sakit perut,belum puas. Habis batuk keras dari rongga dada baru terasa puas..bukan maaaiinnn...anyway,jadwal hari ini adalah going out and having fun! Berganti menjadi satying at home and sleeping, watching tv. Yaaaa apa mau dikata. Next week is holiday. So better prepare for mid term break holiday.yeeeyyy!! He he he...I already have plans in my mind for joice's holiday. At least she could have fun when her dad will have duty out of town...

Happy weekend everyone..! Let's enjoy this bad coughing and hybernating time :))
