Fun & No Fun

Alrighty, finally some time to put up a new post. We haven`t been busy so to say, rather my pregnant self has been too lazy to do much. Some updates. I have quite abit of time to myself now that Gabe is going to school Mondays to Fridays. Not full day, so don`t call me cruel. Mon, Tues & Fri is special school from 10am-2pm and then Wed & Thurs is normal school from 9am-3pm. He`s doing well at special school, but at Melody (normal school), he has not adjusted yet. He clings and cries whenever we leave. It`s heartbreaking to dump him there, but i do not have much of a choice now. I`m like huge at 35weeks and really have no energy to entertain him much at home.

And recently, we were told that because he has a previlage whereby i can get people to fetch him from home and back from special school because i am pregnant. So we applied for this service, and for the next 3 months, I do not have to fetch Gabe back...yay!! Isn`t this great???

So anyway, December 3rd week onwards school closes and we will not be sending him back till like end January in case he brings back any virus to me and Lucas. Bet the boy will be super duper happy. Here he is carrying his Melody chool bag, abit big for him, but not too heavy. Yup he`s trying to hang on so he doesn`t need to go...

We`ve been going to the park every week to let him sit on his bike which he loves so much and always has such a good time it`s lovely to watch him. And he`s a pro at it now, and i think somehow his legs are stronger now and he can walk like much much further and more stable.

Now, that`s fun....and then, there`s no fun. Recently, Gabe has been testing my patience to the extreme. Breakfast times are a horror coz he doesn`t fancy it much. He doesn`t want much milk, and he is so so fussy about what he gets served at brekkie. Alot of things are not to his liking. I`ve tried bread and various types of biscuits. All rejected mostly. And worst part is, i put it in a bowl, and the boy sees he doesn`t want it, he uses his hands and stir stir the food, making it all come out, then throws one by one to the floor or just swipes it all down. When he`s in a foul mood, he just tips the whole bowl over and lets the food drop to the floor, then proceeds to show you an empty bowl....now, tell me i should smack him? You can scold him all you want, he just gives you the `not bothered face` and keeps eyes glued to Mickey Mouse...sighhhhhhhh..........why oh why.......

So because he doesn`t eat much he usually starts to whine in school by 11am coz he`s hungry and lunch isn`t served till 12pm. Nothing much i can do....But i`ve recently started to feed him cake....cheesecake, shortcake, choc cake...and well he does eat it, so I`m gonna stick to that mostly..even if it`s not standard brekkie for kids...

And then, Lucas...my gynae has said that she doesn`t want to induce me too early at 38 weeks, so Dec 30th is unlikely unless something crops up and we need to. So Lucas is prob popping around Jan 6th, 7th or 8th. My only fear is that i go into labour before that and epi is not available...then i`m in deep deep trouble...

Grandma is coming 28th Dec, yay!! Gabe will be so happy to have another playmate to shove his books to....we can`t wait to see you Grandma..prepare urself for Mr Terror On.

Till next post, toodle doo...
