A sneak peek

Welcome to my little corner, a little haven full of wool and cotton (and a bit of silk if I'm lucky)...

I love this room.. it is not large, mind you...it's teeny tiny...but i love it nonetheless..

In my head I have begun to think of this room as the Wool Room..( I blame Elizabeth Zimmerman )

It's not completed yet, I will reveal the whole room when I feel i've done it justice.

Adam's Birthday Celebration

My husband and I woke early the morning of his birthday to get everything ready for his birthday. Balloons blown, bunting hung, cake iced. Then we waited for the Prince to wake up...the Princess as usual woke up early with both of us, oooh-ing and aaaah-ing her approval at all the preparations...

When he woke he was very surprised and happy..

to realise that it was his birthday...

he and I baked the cake together the day before. He thought it was for Daddy, and didn't know it was for him...the cake was moist and yummy, home-baked by birthday boy himself :) of course the little..ehem..fingerprints on the cake made it all the more delicious...

the little mischief, caught chocolate-handed..

no he didn't mind...afterall, what good is a chocolate cake if you can't dip your fingers into the chocolate cream on top...

Afterwards we quickly got in the car for another exciting adventure...

Out to the 'Pool Party', as he called it...

Oh yeah, it was a party alright...

We all enjoyed ourselves....and the birthday boy had the most FUN of all...

Happy 4th birthday, my boy.....

We love you!!!

Paint Day

I never had any water paints in the house before because we lived in rented houses but now it's time for lots of wild painting!!

They both had so much fun...

You can't see in these pictures, but we were outside and it was pouring with rain. It was quite a remarkable scene for outdoor water painting...

i knew they were talented painters, both of them ;)

p/s: paints and brushes from Ikea. Vivid beautiful colours. Stains easily washable.

Happy Birthday Adam !

Adam yesterday, proud of the train tracks that he built all by himself

Adam is 4 years old today. Four!! Four sounds so grown up to me. He has grown a lot. He speaks well (though his malay sounds a bit funny), he gets along with everybody, he takes good care of his sister,his memory and observation is amazing, he is loving and very attentive to other people's feelings. Sometimes he is so independent I forgot he's still a little child. Oh my Adam.

Today, he is the person I talk to the most, the person who listens with no judgement, the person who hugs me for no reason, the person who loves me unconditionally, the person who comforts me when I cry. And I hope I can do the same for him. As I write this it makes me cry to realise that my son has become my best friend.

Adam, I love you so much. Happy Birthday baby....

Connected!

Remember me? :)

Finally we have internet at Home. Does that mean frequent blog updates? I hope so.

My sewing room furnitures are arriving next week too. Can't wait!

Stay tuned.
