Yay! Finally a brand new look.
After a sleepless night and many brain cells being killed in the process, I’ve finally installed a brand new theme for OurLittleSmarties. Here we are now – back to a 3-column blogger-style theme!
Suffusion is a beautiful Wordpress theme, I fell in love with it the first time I saw it. Simple, yet it can be easily customized to suit the user’s requirements.
The interesting feature about this theme is the featured content slider – a section below the header that flashes the top most recent posts. However, I still can’t get it up and running on my blog. I still need a little more time to fix it.
In addition, I’ve installed the LinkWithin plugin. Again, it doesn’t seem to work well too. Argh, I need to check it out.
There are some bit and pieces that I need to modify this week. I want to update all the pictures in my blog as they are really super outdated. I guess by this weekend, I should be able to complete them. Once and for all (hopefully!)
Anyway, I hope you’ll like this new theme. I’ve an interesting beauty product to share with you tomorrow. Stay tuned!

Hi Readers,
This blog will be down for couple of days for upgrading and theme change.
I’m currently installing a fresh new theme, but OH, there are so many settings and customizations need to be done. I’m keeping my fingers crossed, I hope I won’t kill my blog.
I’ll be back real soon.

OurLittleSmarties is featured as one of the mommy’s blogs in Mother and Baby magazine this month. Have you gotten your copy of the magazine? This is a snapshot of it.
There is a growing community of blogging moms in Singapore. From stay-at-home moms to corporate moms, geeky moms, shopping moms, pretty moms and even rock-star moms, you name it, the internet has it.
So, what these mommy’s blogs are all about? Some moms blog about their careers, businesses and how they balance their work and family life. Some of them talk about cookings and sharing their favorite recipes. There are also moms who blog about their motherhood experiences and provide tips to mothers-to-be.
Some blogs read like a diary entries, news story, recipe book or motherhood journal. Some of them may even sound like a frustrated housewives’ rant. It really depends on how you classified them. Despite the differences, there is always one similarity I can find in these blogs. That’s the amazing, exciting, eventful, exhilarating and satisfying job of being a mom!
The daily tasks and adventures of the little ones, so many growing-up stories to tell, happy and not-so-happy memories to share – all of us want to blog about it! Last year, I wrote about the reasons that motivate me to blog. Today, I’m still very motivated to capture my son’s childhood and my motherhood experiences in my blog. I hope to be able to maintain this blog as long as I can.
If you are keen to set-up your own blog but you’re clueless on how to start, pick up a copy of Mother and Baby magazine May 2010 issue. There is a very good write-up on how to set-up your own blog. Quick and easy. Let’s blog on, sisters!

Some of my friends and blog readers informed me that they are unable to leave a comment on my blog. Some of them are so kind to write me an e-mail to highlight this problem to me. I deeply appreciate your kindness.
I’m so sorry to have taken such a long time to react. As I didn’t change any setting in my blog, I’m totally clueless on why such error could happen. My brother-in-law, Kenneth, also asked me about it yesterday.
I suspect that it could be due to the WP-Spam Free plug-in in my blog. The function of this plug-in is to filter out spam comments on my blog. Perhaps, it is too effective until it blocks the comments from my readers. Look at this, it has actually blocked 6,366 comments in my blog!
I’ve de-activated this plug-in today. To those of you who are unable to post a comment, can you please try it again now? Appreciate all your help. Thank you!

I started blogging two years ago with the intention of capturing my son’s precious childhood memories on my blog. Children grow up so fast and we, as a parent, have 10+ years to remember them as our children. Blogging remains my top choice in capturing these cherished moments.
From writing on blogspot to hosting my own website now, my blogs have documented my life through pregnancy, motherhood, marriage life, working life till now – when I’m seriously considering on my #2.
My blog is also the channel of communication with my family and friends. I keep them informed of what’s going in our lives and exciting news at home. It is also an outlet for me to share my motherhood experiences with my blog readers.
Through blogging, I get to know many wonderful friends. We voice our opinions freely, we offer solutions and listen to each other’s problems, and we share the excitement on our children’s milestones on our blogs. This virtual ‘network’ has somehow developed and I’m really thankful for that.
Frankly, I don’t really track my blog statistics. But when I did a check last weekend, I got a shock on my findings. I have over 300 unique visitors to my blog everyday. This figure could be just peanuts to some popular bloggers. However, it’s a new accomplishment to me. I didn’t realize that my blog readership has grown so much!
To all my blogging audience, thank you for your continual support. If you have never commented before, please do leave a comment telling me where you came from. I love to hear from you!
