Baby Then, Toddler Now...

Just over 29 months ago, my Benjamin is so tiny and fragile...

And now he's a toddler!

People say that when you have your 2nd child, your first one will suddenly seem like so BIG and HUGE and ALL GROWN UP.

I hope I don't feel that way with Ben.

He's still pretty much a baby in my heart...

So mums with more than 1 child, does your older child really looks all grown up when the baby comes along?

What A Mess!!!

What's Your Favorite Fix-It-All Product?

Oh my... I was feeling pretty restless a few days earlier... why you ask? It is because I'm running low - really low on my favorite fix-it-all product. I feel so empty and useless as I see it getting lesser and lesser by the day... What's my  favorite fix-it-all product you ask?

This, my dear friends, is the wonderful and awesome product called 'MASKING TAPE'.

No, please, I don't use it to tape Ben. Or his mouth. Or whatever ONTO him.

Now, what do I use it for? Ta - daaaaaaaaaa!!!!

Taping Ben's makeshift Lightning McQueen HELMET...

Taping Ben's cardboard playmat which was DIY-ed by daddy...

Taping Ben's favorite toy gun...

Taping Ben's ride-on car...

I hope it doesn't seem like we're too poor to buy new toys to replace the broken ones. It's just that Ben loves his toys too much to part with it, so no choice, I've gotta McGyverise and tape whatever that broke, tear, split, etc etc...

Thank God we finally did our grocery shopping (normally twice a month at Tesco) and I managed to get TWO new masking tapes. Too bad there's no black color available. But I'd rather forego the cool suave black color and go for the available blue ones than to risk not having any and seeing Ben wailing at me when his toys broke down.

So, there you have it. My favorite fix-it-all product.

What about you? Do you have any favorite fix-it-all product?
