Damn!! I think I got the online shopping bug again, huhu! After the baby things, folk art, scrapbook stuffs, now I am onto fabric.

Check out website like quilthome.com and fatquartershop.com and you will understand why I got attracted. Blame it on my maternal instinct to make pillow case for my son..heh! Recently I bought American cotton fat quarter size from a local seller and then when I read another craft blog who is into fabric frenzy (she’s making clothing for her super cute daughter), I know now why people could get into all this fabric stashing..huhu!

These fabrics collection are just great, with designs made by famous designers like Amy Butler, Sandi Henderson, Anna Maria Horner, just to name a few. I knew Amy Butler from her line of scrapbooking stuffs for K & Company – BELLE and SOLA. I never know that she designs for textile as well..heh! Oh, BTW all these designers do have personal blog..

I’m still thinking whether I should buy the fabric..this is very tempting..huhuhu!

After I came home from the open house on Monday I felt not too well. Hubby bought some food, I ate and took the fever and flu medicine from my earlier visit to the panel clinic this month. Went to sleep but woke up around 3am feeling hungry. Ate 2 pieces of toasted bread and continue sleeping.

Today I feel much better and hopefully tonight I won’t have any fever or flu. I have been browsing this website – twinsbaby.net and I think I have a few designs of baby cots that I would like to go and check. Hubby’s colleague did mention about Safe n Sound in One Utama but I think I will go and survey this shop first.

I am not sure whether to buy a baby cot with 2 or 3 adjustable base. Does it make any difference anyway? I do like this particular type of baby cot with additional small door at the bottom for storage purpose. There is another design that could be converted to playpen and toddler bed on offer at the shop. But I don’t want to keep my hope too high as it might be sold out by the time I go to the shop.

Oh, I just found out that Aussino has bedding line for babies. Will have to check the choices they have as well.

It’s been raining daily and somehow it dampens the mood to do anything. I have been planning to update this blog for days but nothing interesting seems to emerge from my mind. We went groceries and maternity shopping during last weekend after attending all the open house invitations but unfortunately I couldn’t find the nursing bra that I need..huhu!

So in the end I decided to buy online brand Marks & Spencer from eBay. Once the first pair arrives and if it fits nicely, I will buy some more. Of course there are many more choices like Goddess, Medela, Anita and Bravado but gosh they are expensive..ranging from 20-60 dollar USD mind you…

Oh, I have another thing related to baby to buy – it’s the My Brest Friend Nursing Travel Pillow. Not sure whether it is really essential for new mom to breast feed but of course in my case I know my limitation. Having this pillow to hold my newborn baby while I’m trying to handle the breastfeeding process will surely help. Even with the postage to Malaysia, the conversion price is still cheaper. Thanks to my effort in making money online, I still have enough in my PayPal to pay all these stuffs..heh!

Oh, I bought the Bebe disposable breast pads, disposable panties and some other maternity and baby stuffs as recommended by friends. Now I just need to sort out what to pack in the bag in case anything emergency comes up..huhu!

I have no idea what goes on in this head of mine, but lately I don’t have the urge to spend or shop (well, except for the weekly groceries and the monthly magazines). The only thing that I need to buy now is the baby crib and all the necessary items to fill up the crib, and that’s it.

And perhaps for me – nursing bra, maternity pad and nursing attire. But don’t get me wrong, I still love window shopping, checking out stuffs on the Internet like tudung, household appliances, Corelle set, Tupperware but just for the sake of feeding the curiosity of what’s in the market, any good offer or discount.

Maybe I’m getting old and more prudent when it comes to money these days. Or maybe with this pregnancy I just not being myself.

Oh, the only entertaining stuffs that I am willing to spend my money on will be movie DVDs. That’s because it is more comfortable watching movie at home nowadays than going out to cinema. At least I can pause and go for toilet break every now and then..haha!

After a long break from the eBay shopping, I am now being bitten by the shopping bugs again..huhu!

I found this great looking organizer, which I feel like buying (at least I can keep the work-in-progress papers inside), although it won’t fit all my scrapbooking stuffs but still it is an organizer to start with..heh!

Check out the picture.

Plus the same seller has the Making Memories Journaling Book-Noteworthy range that I have been looking for. Talk about saving $$ in combined shipping..hehe!
