Week 30 and counting down the days

My dear baby girl is 30 weeks now. The countdown has officially begun. I can't wait for her arrival. We had a photoshoot on Saturday featuring my maternity moments and also our family. The pictures are being edited now but here's a little sneak preview:-

I hear so many stories of jealousy and sibling rivalry. But Josiah is a lover. He loves seeing other babies and commenting on how cute they are. Whenever there is any reference to baby, he will immediately point at my growing belly. How sweet!

Potty Training

I have decided to seriously start potty training Josiah as he is 2.5 years old now. In the past I occasionally keep him diaper-free at home to let him experience pee-peeing/poo-pooing in the potty. However, as the training is not consistent, he still asks to wear diapers and refuses to go to the potty/toilet voluntarily. Today is the second day he did not wear diapers to school and so far it has been accident-free. If only he was with me 24/7, I am pretty sure I can successfully potty train him fully in a matter of days. I do expect some accidents where he wets himself, but that is the norm. This morning however, I was so cross that I yelled at him so hard when he wet himself even though the potty was right next to him and I asked him to do it in the potty but he refused to. As a result, Josiah was frustrated himself and yelled back at me. Of course after that he came crying to me and asked me to sayang him back. Note to self: to be more patient, do not yell and get frustrated and never ever give up.
