Over and Over Again

This is my routine now. Everything repeats over and over again. Charlotte wakes up, smile or cry, poop or pee, smile, play, scream, sleep again. I still cannot find a way to make her sleep without her screaming her lungs out. This is pretty much her habit. Charlotte cannot stay awake for more than 1 to 1.5 hrs. After 1 to 1.5 hrs, she will start being cranky and has to scream her lungs out before falling asleep for a short while then the cycle will repeat itself again. Can you imagine how many times a day I've to go through this? It is so frustrating. I feel like I am restraining a mad person from the mental hospital whenever I battle with her to put her to sleep.

After the tough battle, she will suddenly stop and look like this... This is probably after I sing twinkle twinkle little stars or ABCD 4 times.
Then eventually this...
Why can't she just go to sleep. The screaming part is inevitable.

Everyone has been telling me it will get better. At the same time, there will be a different set of problem as she grows older. Boooo kids are such a bother. Why did I give myself so much trouble?!?! I have never ending things to lament about ever since I got pregnant. I roll my eyes at people when they tell me how they miss their kids being babies or say ooohh she's so cute! Ya Ya she's cute when she's not screaming. When she screams, who handles her? ME!

Why would anyone want to have so many kids?? I still lack the motherly love that my parents have. I feel so deprived of a holiday. I have not been to somewhere new in ages. Bye bye freedom and welcome to my boring life.

Say hello to my grouchy baby
Even dressing her up to go out is a battle. Look at the unhappy face she is giving me coz I forced her to wear a hat. It's for her own good! She wants to have a frozen brain?!?

The Orange Timber

Today was a pretty chill day, walking around, eating and reading my book! It has been a long time since I walked along Blk 85 market. I think the last time was during my sec sch days, on my way back to my grandma house after sch. Since I had breakfast there with my grandma today, I showed der the old sch cake shop where Cham and I bought a huge cream cake (not those fanciful ones we get these days) and finished it all by ourselves under the void deck! Der and I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a slice each :) Strawberry vs blueberry...Only $1.10 each. Those miniture ones that are sold at toast box cost $1.20 and they are only 1/3 the size of this! What a rip off for something nostalgia... Later in the evening, we decided to chill at The Orange Timber @ Tiong Bahru The Orange Timber is a cafe cum art gallery. The plates are bowl used were also meant to be something nostalgia once again... hah However, I use those cutlery at home too. There are like 3 sections to this small cafe...

Happy Chinese New Year!
