Our day looks simple, but it tires me out easily! I usually knock out by 12am, unless i'm hooked onto chatting on the MSN. Thank god for the internet though.

Jude hadn't had fish for a long time. He doesn't like meat or fish much actually, always spitting them out whenever i feed him some. I now understand why experts say it's normal for toddlers to be picky about food. Well, yesterday, i panfried some salmon fish for him. Damn expensive fish! cost me $5 for a mid cut slab! but it's really really healthy and i read about how important it is to build up a strong body between the age of two to six(part of my mission as a stayhome mama is to 'rear' a healthy kid!).

Luckily Jude liked the salmon fish. How do i know? Becos he nodded his head each time he takes a bite of it and asked for more! I taught him to nod his head if he likes what he's eating - hahaha!

It's really joyful for a mum to see her kid enjoy her cooking.
