Hubby - Babysitting?!

Ha,ha...until now, when I think of it, I really still find it funny, nervous, panic, etc(anything you name it)

As usual, once a year, our company will have a strategy meeting in local office (mean a serious meeting with EC - executive committee). So, coincidental, this year strategy meeting is on Monday (27th Feb 06). I already told my hubby that strategy meeting is really stress and serious, so, I might not be able to call/sms him or anything for whole day. He fully understand.

My hubby never ever dare to babysit either Jona or Isaac cause he is not confident with them. Since nanny charge so high for babysitting Isaac at night (RM 35), can see my hubby really reluctant to let nanny 'suck our blood' anymore. He volunteer to take care of Isaac by himself. At first, I don't agree cause he no experience ler...what happen if he cannot handle Isaac(Isaac very very naughty ler)? All those funny questions pop into my mind.....Finally, I gave in...Last friday, he already take care of Isaac after pick him up from nanny house around 7pm (I was on the way back from PD after partner meeting). He called me asking this, that, blah,blah to handle Isaac....Thanks GOD! No problem at all....and this boost his confident...ha,ha....

On Monday, as usual, he pick up Isaac around 7.45pm. And, once reach home, Isaac Noel cried so loud(actually, I could said not crying but screaming!!!)...My hubby got panic, call me(which I guess my handphone will burst cause non stop!!) sms me, leave Isaac crying voice messenger......but, I just couldn't pick up, cause it is my turn to do strategy presentation (7 -8.30pm)....

When I went back home, my hubby face still in pale and panic.....so funny to see him tell me his tale story of taking care of his second prince.....he said "Isaac Noel just cried non stop...and like scream out from his lung....no stop ler..u know, non stop for half an hour!!! It really drive me crazy and I can even climb on the wall ler...Even though I give him pacifier, he don't want(of course lar, hubby give wrong pacifier ;p ), milk also don't want (of course lar, Isaac a bit like king - he asked milk, must milk, if not given faster, then, sorry ya...he will throw tantrum for few minutes!)..." He keep repeating same thing, cry non stop lar... until he make some milk for darling Isaac, only then, he stop crying and sleep like nobody business.....

"Wow, your darling son huh, cannot ler....really bully me teruk teruk one"....I only answer him back..."Now, only u know huh? How teruk I jaga him since day 1 ler"...."Yeah, yeah, darling, now, only I know....really really sorry ler. Next time, I will rush back home to help you take care of both princes ya?"

Yes..yes...my dream almost come true...I can start thinking of going out with my friend again soon (guess lar).....this babysitting never come cross my mind at all to 'indirectly' let my hubby to experience babysitting his lovely son....maybe, GOD heard my pray....

Cause he always give me reason if I asked him babysitting Jona or Isaac.....guess really must let my hubby try on real scenario...only then, he panic, SOS also cannot answer, then, he will start using his 'man brain' lor in handling baby....kah,kah...

Next day, darling hubby tell me again"Next time, I have experience already, really know how to take care of Isaac, if he cried, immediately, fast, fast make milk, and pop into his mouth" with full confident in his face while he talking to me....

"Yeah, yeah, I hope so lar".....reply from me but deep in my heart, I really proud of my darling cause he finally do want to try babysitting Isaac all alone by himself without real practise...."Kudos, darling dear".....

my hubby says he can jaga only. Well, he can, but I found out that the kids are quite scared of him when they're home alone with daddy cos daddy is very strict with them. When he says he'll come home early, he meant home early to watch TV and read papers (in the toulet!!!) haha.
