Maid or No Maid?
We were discussing this issue some time -- and we decided in the end that we needed to get a maid to help my MIL, who will be taking care of Jordan after I go back to work.
However, at the BBQ on Tue, while I was talking to my BIL's friend's wife, who happens to be Apple's good friend (but thank God, she is nothing like her), Apple butted in and said something like "When the baby is out 2 months later, I think you dun need to get a maid, cuz you have a ready one here (referring to herself), who will take care of your baby for you. It's good lah and you dun even have to worry about whether the baby will be ill-treated." (trying to translate directly according tot he way she said it in chinese) Wah lau, if she is so hard up for something to do, then go to the factory to work lah. There are so many factories in Singapore and since she CLAIMED to have been a factory worker before, she will definitely do very well in the factory!!!!!
!!!!! I didn't know what to say man..cuz it would be impolite to say in front of her friend that I dun want her to take care of my baby. Anyway, when in the world did Piggy or I ever ASK her to take care of our baby?! She didn't have to volunteer her services, especially when she is not a very qualified one to begin with!!!
Firstly, she has very long finger nails, and I really wouldn't want such a person handling my baby day in, day out...you never know when those sharp nails will prick the baby's soft skin, esp for someone like her, who is so psychotic and unpredictable, you never know when she will do something crazy. I will be damn worried if my baby were to be in her hands in future. Secondly, her horrible, high-pitched china accent is another thing I cannot stand. I want Jordan to grow up speaking Singapore Chinese, not some funny china chinese and picking up all those bad habits, like lying, splurging, complaining and taking things for granted, which is spelled all over her face.
All in all, I dun want such a helper for my baby, so she can jolly well "dun even think of it!"
I think Piggy really needs to talk to his mom about our concerns over Apple. At best, I can be cordial to Apple, but the fact is I still dun like her and I really dun want her anywhere near our baby. Anyway, Apple is used to people serving her, what makes her think she can become a "maid" and take care of a little baby?!!

My strong little baby...
I think Jordan is getting stronger nowadays..his kicks and punches can hurt abit sometimes..and he really moves about so very often, especially at night. Just this morning, I woke up at ard 4-5 am, to feel Jordan moving and punching around, so much so that I couldn't get to sleep for the next 1 hour or so.
