Bonding Time with Ezann
Our Maid went back for holiday on 4 April. Intially we thought we gonna have a hard time handling Ezann but to our surprise Ezann didn't look for our helper. She occasionally will ask where's Wiwik but after explaining to her, she stopped asking and seems to understand that she went back to visit her son.
What we find most hectic is having to do housework and attending to her. In the past we only need to spend quality time with her but now both me & Ben need to share the load of cleaning the house. Now we realised being a helper is really not that easy. Every Morning, have to get Ezann to brush her teeth and then clean her face. She's still not really brushing her teeth. She simply put the toothbrush in her mouth and just touched on the 2 front teeth. Sometimes biting on the toothbrush if not she playfully put onto her tongue. *argggh* But at least I tell myself I must let her get into the routine that its a must to brush teeth and clean face in the morning. I am beginning to feel like I am a full time housewife hahahha
The day is quite routine. Put the clothes into washing machine, prepare the ingredients for her lunch, wash the milk bottles, feed her cerals, sit down with her for a while...read to her or play with her whatever she likes. Then 11 start cooking her lunch. She will start to nap around 1 till about 2-3pm. Was hectic but we having lots of bonding time with her and we find it very enriching.
Thanks to my Dear Hubby. I never seen him so involved with Ezann and housework before. He can now bathe Ezann alone, play with her. He even helped me pack the house and hang out the clothes. In the night when Ezann goes to sleep, he will help me tidy up the house especially putting back ezann's toys in place. In the past I never dare trust Ezann with him alone but now I simply can. I think he can handle the job better than me...HA!
We brought Ezann out a few times in these 2 weeks, went shopping malls and on 13 April, we brought her to the Zoo together with 2 GUGU, my MIL and FIL. She can now recognise Elephant, Lion, Tiger, Giraffes and Tigers. Too bad we went quite late so we didn't have time exploring the Zoo but managed to catch 2 Shows - Elephants and Seals. (forgot the title of the show..oops).
