You know when you have two kids, I think you somehow compare how things are now with how things were before.
Like how today’s better technology (read: having good quality video camera function in my IXUS) allows me to easily capture heaps more video clips than 2-3 years ago (Anya has much fewer video clips during her first 2 years)
How I never actually use our Avent steriliser ever since Vai was born (Anya used it during her first 6 months).
How Vai now eats mostly home-made meals. With more variety too, thanks to my little blender (When it was time for Anya to start her solids, I was completely clueless about preparing home-made baby food. I was busier with our business too at the time and Anya ate cereals, fruits and mostly jarred food during her first 10 months)
How I never bathe Vai in a baby bath tub when we’re at home (The only time we used a tub was when we traveled to Malaysia and Indonesia last December).
[You see, we do have a bath tub at home, but now that I have two kids to care for, I somehow find it faster and more practical to bathe him in our bathroom sink. When he reached 5 months, Vai laid on a mat, on his tummy, playing with toys as I showered both kids together. And it's been like that until today, well except that Vai now sits, crawls and stands during his shower]

Life with two kids has been interesting. I find myself adjusting and learning everyday. Finding out ways to cope and squeeze my time so that I can still do other stuff WHILE caring for the two.
Well, as someone once said, ‘Life’s never dull with kids!’
And I agree completely.
PS: Vai is now 50 weeks old and really, can’t believe in just TWO more weeks this little guy will be ONE!
