Picnic day

Kayla, Kieran & I had a long day today. We went for a picnic.

I made sandwiches, packed some biscuits, water, toys & brought along a chinese story book. We put everything, including a big blankie, into a bag and off we went. We walked one round & Kayla decided to stop there to have our picnic.

I lay out the blanket, emptied the bag of food & toys and we had an enjoyable time eating, talking & reading a book.

"Action speaks louder than words"

Thats my boy.

I am always worried that Kieran is not vocal enough. Sometimes I feel like I am a horrible mom - not teaching enough - when I see other kids of his age singing & speaking alot more. But whenever I see him quietly & patiently doing a puzzle and then fixing it all over again with little or no difficulties, I know he is special in his own little ways.

Solving a 30pcs 5 foot long floor puzzle, by himself:

New Look

1) I hope Nai nai doesnt fly down to Sydney to strangle me for chopping off Kieran's hair. I had daddy's permission ok !! Kieran's hair was getting too messy, fuzzy & tangled so I brought him to a hair salon today and ...

TA DAH !!

Not bad isnt it ?


2) Been wanting to get a huge bean bag for our living room.. Kayla & Kieran loves to sit on the cushions to watch tv, play or read. Finally saw one I like & along with 2 kids, I lugged home 2 bags of beans & the cover to contain the beans !!

It wasnt an easy task to empty the BIG bags of weightless beans into the cover!


Our cosy living room

Today Kieran's hair was exceptionally curly !! I couldnt stop taking photos of him and Kayla.

Ha ha ha !!!














My favourite photo !!

While they were sleeping ...

Someone once told me that the house is a reflection of the mind & I totally agree to that. When the house is cleaned, the bed is made & the toys are kept away, my spirit is lifted and so is my tolerance level !

It was a beautiful day. While the man & the children were sleeping, I washed the balcony & wiped the railings.

Parcel from Melb.

Nothing can stop my mother-in-law from buying what she likes/wants !!! She insisted on getting these boots/slippers from Melbourne.

Cant wait to open the parcel !

100% sheepskin to keep our feet warm !

Trying on his boots

"Thank you nai nai !!!"

Defeated

I cant remember when was the last time I was sick.. very sick.

Yesterday I had a sore throat then I started to cough. This morning I woke up I knew it will be the worst day of my life. My back is aching, my head feels heavy & I am coughing my lungs out!

Thank God for Richard. He will be on half day leave to take over my job.

Ok, till I get well.

Cousins reunion

Last Thursday my personal courier (aka Kieran's Godparents) arrived in Syd !! A big thank you to Jan & Steven.

I am sure Jan will have alot to say in her blog (like de shopping place we went to ha ha ha!) so I shall give her the privilege to elaborate (suan) further !!

Dinner at the Korean BBQ

Yummy humongous fruit salad ice-cream !!!

Godma & Kieran in a spiderman pose !

"Oooh.. this is so delicious"

"More chocolate please !!!!"

Opps forgot to take a photo with Daniel jiujiu !!!

Sumo Salad

Something is terribly wrong with me. I am addicted to Chicken Cobb Salad (eggs, grilled chicken, avocados, tomatoes, cheese, lettuce & corns). People who know me well will know that if I love a particular food, I DONT eat in moderation !!

Lollipop's playland

How I long to bring my children to Fidgets (Sg) ! Then my friend Valerie told me about Lollipop's playland & cafe.. it was great !!!
