A blog for Justin and Isabelle

I’ve started working since Monday, and after 5 working days, I think Justin and Isabelle have been adapting well.

For the first 2 days, I was so tired when I reached home, I couldn’t bring myself up to run and play with Justin outside the house while carrying Isabelle. My legs were sore and I could feel my head spinning.

During bedtime, Justin asked me to play horse-riding with him. He’s not riding on me, but we’ll use each other’s bolster to run about in the room and acting like riding on a house. I couldn’t pretend I was enjoying the game, but just walking around dragging the bloster. Justin was playing at first but then he stopped and looked at me, puzzled why I was not doing it the way he did. Hubby said I was spoiling the whole thing and took over the game from me. I think I spoilt the fun too as I was too tired.

Hubby went to KL on Wednesday, and as usual, I’ll try my best to spend time with them when hubby’s not around. Hubby and I had moved out our things from the study room and made it playroom for them. It’s much easier to handle them in a room as Justin can play with the toys while I was cradling Isabelle. At least I could sit and rest while watching him.

I didn’t work long hours, but still extremely wore off when I reached home. Maybe my body is not adapting well yet. So, I’m taking things slowly as being a mother, it’s not convenient to be sick. Fortunately, I seldom fall sick after entering motherhood. I have no idea why by being tired and busy, I’ve got healthier. Maybe I’m happy to be a mother, even if there’re some sacrifices to be made, and major changes have taken places in my life style, yet I’m much happier now.

  1. Although I am tiring after work, but I found that playing with my boys make me feel stress relief and I love to see their big smile and hear their laugh.
    Relax yourself and take thing easily, dont over stress up. Things will go smoother, I learn this too…keep on and cheer up

  2. Wow.. so fast back to work..

    Oh gosh.. it must be hard on you huh?? Working and looking after 2 kids when you are back. I really can’t imagine myself doing that.

    Since you don’t work whole day, why not come home have a nap, recharge yourself? If only we have similar luxury.

  3. Rachel, it’s true. Seeing them smile and hearing the laughters are the bonus of the day. But still, I’m too tired to keep up with it. Ya, really need to take things easy.

    Zara’s mama, I wish I could rest for another month, but well, no luck leh. Actually, I’m looking after them when I’m at home most of the time as they’re really attached to me. No time to nap, but I’ll take good care of myself. :)

  4. You need lots of chicken soup, bird’s nest and maybe Red Bull. :D Take care!

  5. Wow, time really flies hoh, so fast back to work already..

    Take things slowly, sometimes I feel that rather than making yourself overtired by playing with them all 5 days after work and forcing yourself, why no go to bed early for 2 days and be fully rested (if you have some help) and spend the other 3 days having good fun with them after work… works much better.
