If you think I'm cute ...

Jiu2 and Sylvia bought these cute tees. It reads " If You Think I'm Cute You Should See My Aunty (on Kayla)/ My Uncle (on Kieran)" !!!

A child's prayer - Answered !

We had 2 days of intensive negotiation with the developer. The long wait almost killed our interest in purchasing the unit. We were quite certain they would reject our offer and all prepared to get back our deposit.

But very strangely, Kayla kept saying Jesus told her to start packing as we will be moving very soon. I didnt take her words seriously.

This morning I rang the agent and told him to return our deposit because we were so tired of the wait and "fruitless" negotiation. He said ok, he will arrange to mail a cheque to us.

2hrs ago, the agent called to say offer accepted!

Dear God, thank you.

A child's prayer

Over the weekends, we went home-hunting & found a place we like but the developer hasnt come back to us on the price.

So, I asked Kayla to pray and she did. Then she shouted, "ITS COMING!". I freaked out and asked her "WHO??".

"A VERY BIG HOUSE, HA HA HA!", was her reply.

Faintz.

Now my dear Kayla, you need to pray for your brother's swollen eyelid!



Bitten by a mosquito!

Cycling

It was a beautiful day to cycle. Kayla was able to pedal faster this time & we reached our "destination" in no time.

IKEA.




Enjoyed being "tom pang".


Before heading home, we stopped by the park for the kids to play with the dogs.

Playground nightmare

Kan cheong mummy gets very tense when the kids are at a crowded playground.

As mischievious as they are at home, they are extremely mild at play in public places. So when I see other children running & pushing around, I start to panic! There were a few times Kayla was hit by another kid, accidentally & intentionally !!

Today, I saw a girl hit Kayla on her hand because she wanted Kayla to give way ! The devil in me wanted to tell Kayla to fight back.

Advise please.

Snowed !!!

I'd wish it'd snow in Sydney BUT definately not in my bedroom !

I was on the phone with my mother in law when I walked into the room to check on the kids. It was snowing !!! My kiddos emptied half bottle of the baby powder onto the carpet and all over my TV console ! Kayla was shocked to see me & Kieran continued to play with the snow.

Too hopping mad to take any photos!

They looked really funny though! Hair, nose & cheeks covered with powder. Ha Ha!

Brain food

I was looking forward to bring the kids to the library for "storytime" at 11am (every wed). Then this morning when I called the library to confirm, they told me it will only start end of Jan!!

Anyway, we decided to go ahead.

Bringing them to the library was more challenging than I thought. Kayla was too fascinated by the new environment to concentrate. Kieran, as expected, was busy exploring the children's area!!


Read to me, mummy?


Before I could even start reading, Kieran walked away...


... to show off his computer knowledge to a girl !!!

Overall, they had fun exploring the books & getting to know other children. I made some friends too!!

Bicentennial Park

Dancing in the wind

Today, we chanced upon this big park near our home. It was beautiful. Shall let the pictures do the talking...

Cannot wait to go out.





We were standing on a steep grass slope. No idea what was on the other side...

This was what we saw.

2009 Family Dinner
