Marmeeee

Lately (actually about a month ago), Zac has taken a general liking to yelling out for me...be it out of necessity, urgency or just plain boredom. Initially, he couldn't get it right...so i was mama for quite sometime, then one day...it was marmeeee. Sometimes, its so pleasant sounding and sweet, other times i hear his urgency for shouting out marmee, and also there are other times where is plain infuriating, especially when its marmee this and marmee that and only MARMEE!!
But i guess, in his world, i am the only one who qualifies to be his marmeeee!!!

My very curious son...

My son has a few very curious habits that are oh-so-zachary...thought i should write about them so that i can laugh over them when i have trying days with him!
- He has taken to wearing his still-too-big-sandals-which-are-kept-in-his-cupboard-till-he-grows-into-them around the house. Every morning after breakfast, he will ask me to help him put them on. Even though he trips on them frequently, he will still insist that i put them on for him.
- He has an obsession with EGGS! He has learnt that E-G-G starts with the alphabet E, every time he spots a letter E...he shouts out EGGS in glee! And if he so happens to spy some eggs on the dinner table that's all he will have! Same thing with RICE!
- Zac enjoys walking around the house while holding two objects in his hands...and the two objects have to be the same items, for eg, 2 play spoons, 2 play forks, 2 cars, 2 play EGGS, 2 books etc etc. If he can't find something similar for the other hand, he will find something else that comes in a pair!
- He finds it essential to cross his legs when he is seated in the car-seat. If you un-cross them, he will cross them back.
That's the list for now...quite sure it will grow the more he grows! I wonder what goes on in his little mind....

We are expanding...

Just a photo to update on how we look like now! Seeing that i have not blogged for ions! And the reason for not doing so is....YES we are expanding our little clan...no. 2 is on his/her way! Officially passed the 12 week mark, so am sighing a sigh of relief! But the erratic morning sickness and the exhaustion has not let up yet. SIGH
A bit sooner than expected but i guess God feels that its time for Zac to share his mummy and daddy with someone else!
We are both excited and eager to welcome no. 2 into our family but i am still kind of overwhelmed by the prospect of keeping my sanity with 2 kids!! Zac has just turned 18 months so he is at his prime in terms of misbehaving, testing limits, being cheeky and bouncing off the walls with extreme energy at times...so that probably contributes to my apprehensiveness of mothering TWO! But i know with each challenge God's grace is doubled...
Zac, i think, has no idea what's ahead...but when i ask him where the baby is...he now knows that its in mummy's tummy, but quite soon after that he will also point to his tummy, so hmmm...not too sure if he knows what is going on at all.
Exciting times ahead...
