Why is it such a nightmare? Though I enjoy holiday, especially the long ones, preparing for this year's CNY is a nightmare for me. What I dreaded was being sooo busy at work, and still have to think about the CNY preparation. Ya, nothing much to prep in fact, except to get the new clothings for the kids, Olive Tree and myself. Weeks back, we've settled the daddy's and the kids stuffs. As for me, I didn't think getting clothings would be a challenge for me till I really can't find clothes that I can fit and are nice!! URRRGH! Also, I soon realise that the days are getting so near to CNY and nothing was bought yet. So yesterday, we went out for the CNY shopping. Though I very much wished I can stay at home to sleep or scrap, but I can't. We head done to one of our friend's kid's birthday at Aloha Resort before going for our shopping trip. Here's a card I've done for his birthday. We've gone to Parkway Parade It was dampening that I can't f...

10th Jan, this is the day that we see her chuckles so loudly. She's simply adorable. Technorati Tags: grace

It's so heart-wrenching to see my darling son, Seth cried so badly today. He woke up and first thing that he said, "I don't want to go to school!" We took awhile to coax him to wear his uniform and got him to calm down by giving him his favourite FreshMilk Chocolate. When we reached the childcare centre, he starts to be so clingy to me. He wanted me to stay and I stayed with him for awhile. Attended the chinese class with him. In fact, he enjoys the learning, but at times, he'll get over to me, and said he wants to go home. Whined a bit as well. I couldn't stay with him as I need to go back office, Ed's had meeting and then Grace got to be at Marg's place. I told him I need to leave and he was pulling me so tight, clenching onto my top blouse! Refusing to let go. That moment, I wished so much to get him back home with me, I take care of him but I maintained the composure and left him with his Teacher. \\ It's really not easy to withstand the cryin...

Aval had her baby shower on 6th Jan. We had a totally family gathering. Meaning, my elderst sil was there at the celebration. Finally, after almost 1.2 years, we talked! hahaha! Amen! I enjoyed the day better than any other day. here are some photos taken on that day. This photo is so precious as we never had a photo taken like this one. All the kids with Grandma, including Jack and Jacq. More of the photos of Aval's Baby Shower can be viewed here . Technorati Tags: Baby , Celebrate

1. Sending Seth to ChildCare Centre. Accompanying him till he settled down. Then off to the market, which is conveniently located in the same building as Seth's CC. :D 2. Took an online course today. Since we need to employ a maid for mom and help her to take care of Grace and Aval. Stir Fried Cauliflower & Carrot in Ketchup (this is the uncooked version) 3. Prepare the dish for tonight's dinner. I am going out for dinner. So cooked for Ed. Spare Ribs in Rootbeer and Char Siew Sauce. hA! 4. It's a cloudy day, and rained heavily for awhile. 5. Grace did not sleep much in the afternoon. Was juggling between cooking and entertaining her. 6. and finally, she slept! I could do my cooking, get ready to pick Seth up from the CC at 5.30pm. When I reached the CC, he was clinging to his Teacher, crying. Aiyo, His teacher told me that he was clingy today and cried a few times. *heartbreak* I am worried for Monday comes, that he refuse to go to CC all together. Pray to the Lord, th...

Though it's not really a full time school that he is attending, but to us, it's a big milestone. It's the day when Seth goes to school! I woke up at 5am. After feeding Grace, I went about doing the name tag for his school bag, wanted to sew his name for his towels but I guess I am still not the expert in sewing. :) Anyway, I am too excited to sleep. The task will be upon me to bring Seth to the childcare centre. If Olive Tree were to bring him there, I would bet my life that Seth would not let him go off. He is sooo clingy to his daddy! When I reached the CC(childcare centre), It was pretty chaotic, new school term, new kids on the block, crying sounds here and there. I was kinda worried Seth will get frighten of the cries but he was pretty ok. He can even remember where his shoes should be placed on the shelf. I coaxed him to go into the class (he's in class PG-A). Some of the boys were really crying. I should say that the probability of Boys crying is so much greater...

She's 4 months. She's a babe, to us. Simply adorable and so sweet. We love her eyes, Olive Tree came out of the toilet outside, KFC, Thomson Plaza. He said, " Ah Gal's eyes so bright and shiny! " We love the way she coos and aahhs. She talks and talks. These days, apart from her screaming affair, she will mumble and mumble, as if complaining. She makes the most noise, to compare her with Seth. Woman's nature! hahaha! She's able to roll over and prone steadily now. Just today, she starts to kick her way around, the early signs of learning to crawl. She started to grab for things in front of her. She's quick at doing that! I am amazed. She just love you to talk and play with her. She's always smiling, laughing. A very happy gal. She makes mommy spends even more!! HEE! Whenever we are out, I will also browse for baby gal's stuffs. Her clothes are in a big bag, and I can still tell Olive Tree, "oh, She hasn't got enough to wear for her age...
