The Pros of a Maid

Jaclyn has been with us for over a week. Other than the 2 major wrongs, she's generally alright. But she still has a lot to improve when it comes to taking care of Lil Shauna. The fact that Lil Shauna is the most important thing still hasnt get into her head. She's still worrying about the stroller, the grocery, the dirty table, etc., over Lil Shauna. And her memory! Oh gosh, she's has done a fair share of cleaning and packing but on a few occasions cant remember where she has kept the stuff. I get pissed when that happens. I do hope that I can keep her and that will happen if she improve on the Lil Shauna's part.

Ok, enuff complaints. I am supposed to blog about the pros of having a maid, not the cons. Hehe.

1. Clean house
The house is really clean now. It is much cleaner than when we have a part-time cleaning auntie who comes once a month.

2. No housework for us
Well, ever since the part-time cleaning auntie came, the only housework that I do is laundry and dishes. Still that can be quite tiring after a hard day of work. Now, nothing at all. I dun have to wash a single thing. ;p

3. No chasing of Lil Shauna in the shopping mall
I like this one best. We bring Lil Shauna to ToysRus very often when we are at the shopping mall. Lil Shauna can go on and on and on without showing any signs of tiredness but her poor parents are dragging behind and complaining of tired legs. Now, while J runs after Lil Shauna, we can even afford to look at toys. Hohoho.


4. Extra pair of eyes and hands to look after Lil Shauna at home
Lil Shauna likes J bcos unlike us, J is more focused while she entertained Lil Shauna. We tend to steal glances at the TV. With J around and a willing Lil Shauna, we even get to lie of the sofa and watch TV while J plays with her. Hohoho.

5. Relaxing while outside
Just yday, I brought Lil Shauna to Fidgets, which is a huge indoor playground for kids.

Before J comes along, I was the one who climbed the structure and does stunt wif Lil Shauna. But yday, after getting them familiar with the structure, I actually got to sit at the cafe, drink coke and read magazines! Hohoho, good life leh.

6. Sit in the front passenger seat
Well, this only happens when Lil Shauna is willing. She is still sticky to me, which I dun mind. More than often, she will cry and scream pitifully when I sit in front and she's stranded behind with J. -.o"

Well, we still hasnt accomplished any of our to-do list. We had wanted to catch a move, to eat dinner without the baby, go Mambo.... Yes, we will slowly do those when Daddy Lim is back on day shift. :)
