"Kana" Complaint!

Phone home to check how's everyone doing...

mum: 我要 complain 阿! 你的老二啊，很坏蛋！叫她不要弄坏东西，她近然打嬤嬤，骂她为什么打嬤嬤?! 她还扁嘴要哭！我说嬤嬤还没打你，你却先哭。。。她就不要我了，跑到 kaka 那边去。。。
me: ...

There was one night my maid complaint about Clara to me too...
She was setting up the children mattress in my room while I was talking to them, then she interrupted

maid: Clarabelle, naughty girl!
me: Why?
maid: Today when she play with the CD... I ask her not to... she beat me and run away... she say kaka naughty, and called *daddy to beat me...
me: ... ... ... -_- " is already past tense, I couldnt be scolding her now... she will be very puzzle then...

An explanary on Clarabelle called *daddy:
The children had administed daddy is the discipline master in the house and they are really scare to defy daddy. So I take advantage of this and whenever they disobey me, I will called for daddy and their respond were real fast but not until one day I realised Clarabelle had mimic me. She was asking Abella to stop doing something that she felt was not right but Abella just dont budged. Clarabelle screeched and I heard her calling daddy ! ! ! daddy beat u... =_= "

My babies...

Though my girls are two years plus already but sometime I will still call them baby, "baby come here", "baby dont.." or "baby nice?" etc..
There was a time my friend overheard and teased me, " They're girl already... still baby, baby.." which indeed, sometime they really look and behave mature.

See photos, those dresses were from 姨婆. They claimed themself pretty after putting on and asked for their hair clip too. So vain, like to doll up. But they indeed looked sweet and demure in dresses and before I can finished, they started their monkey act again... *eye rolling*
Dono why Clara lifted her leg up, then a samurai westling and both falled down! *giggling*


They are afterall still my babies...

妈妈的宝贝叫...

Last night I was trying to teach the girls the chinese rhythm I have invented. I started with the grandparent first but their concentration threshold were too low to allow me finish the four paragraph... * sign* I thought to wrap up our first session of language by reciting all the paragraph, be it they were listening or not. So I went a bit faster and stronger rhythmic. I think that captivated them. They looked stunned when mummy was talking so fast and musical. I continued and ended my tongue twister with 妈妈的宝贝叫琦璟，妈妈的甜心叫琦蔚!

They are so sweet! I couldnt resisted but gave them each a big smooch and squeezed on the cheek :*

Afternoon Tea Session...

I love the thought of afternoon tea session, be it at home, a cosy corner with a full window scenery or the afresco coffee club, watching people passing by and even at this hawker stall which served nice coffee, tea and toasted bread, comparable to Ah koon but at the price of half only :p

Coffee 70 cents
Ice lemon tea $1
toast bread 40 cents !

What an economical enjoyment :)

Extended Family

I have think of a chinese rhythm for my children to remember their extended family...

爸爸的爸爸叫爷爷
爸爸的妈妈叫奶奶
爸爸的哥哥叫伯伯
爸爸的弟弟叫叔叔
爸爸的姐姐叫姑妈
爸爸的妹妹叫姑姑

妈妈的爸爸叫公公
妈妈的妈妈叫婆婆
妈妈的哥哥叫大舅
妈妈的弟弟叫小舅
妈妈的姐姐叫姨妈
妈妈的妹妹叫阿姨

伯伯的妻子叫伯母
叔叔的妻子叫婶婶
舅舅的妻子叫舅母

姑妈，姑姑的丈夫叫姑丈
姨妈，阿姨的丈夫叫姨丈

伯，叔，姑姑的子女是堂哥，堂姐，堂弟妹
舅舅，阿姨的子女是表哥，表姐，表弟妹

YEAH !

Never underestimate the little one...

The hubby was telling me that now we cannot underestimate our girls' ability. The ability to understand what adults are talking, ability to carry out instructions, ability to remember what we said just once, etc etc...

There was one night bedtime, as usual lights off, a total darkness... I simply groped a blanket to cover Abella and this girl resisted, threw the blanket to clara! When I was puzzled by her act, she pulled out an blanket beneath clara and came back asking me to cover her. Then I realised actually that was her white blanket and perviously blue one belongs to clara! I was amazed by her ability to identify even in that kind of total darkness!

The girls love their daddy to lift them up from the arm and swing them like a pendulum. There was a time when the daddy paused and told them " Ok children, enough already, daddy needs a break...", suddenly wtpg reply " Daddy tire...". The daddy was so touched... I was amazed by their ability to understand " tire " as I only remember mention once to them, mummy is tire, want to rest.

I was amazed by the words they known not by me but most probably they have heard elsewhere.

I was amazed by their sense of ownership...

One day, me: Come children, want to take some photo?

The girls came running, each holding a train in hand (abe holding a green train and clara, blue), to their usual photo taking spot. Happily they lined their train in between them, getting ready for me. But they were standing so far apart... when I said stand closer, Abella moved to the right side of Clara. Clara mind was thinking otherwise, she picked up Abe's green train and putted beside Abella and putted her blue train beside her. So now they are standing in between the train, closer and beside their respective train!

I know these are the skills every child will acquire ultimately but I am just glad that I have witness all these :)

Total Misconception ? ? !

This morning hubby was telling me, cant remember what thing's originality and it strike me asking him who invented vulgar language and...

hubby: Huh? What's make you think that those are vulgarity? You have a total misconception! Just like many people think that nudity is dirty... is a total misconception too and .... @%*# and.... %*&#....

=..= Please pardon me... this is my hubby... he and his askew logic...

Bad toe nails!

Baby skin are so soft, smooth and supple... what all women wish forever but check out my girls' toe nails! Er-h! Always peeled into layers and dont grow well!

Guess this is what they need... a pedicure...

This nail enamel works well on me... hopefully it can improve the girls' nail too :)

Cho-cho Train

Last saturday while shopping, the children were captivated by this train playset on displayed... Hey, mommy find this interesting too... train ferrying stuff from one destination to another... and check out the bull dozer, cooled! So, happily we bought home one :) Cant wait to assemble it, we did it that night though it was late and the children should be on bed... and finally when we are done... Hah??! Battery no included!

The next day, finally, we got the battery but see what happen? The two disturbing particles had dismantled the whole setup! >"< ... assemble the whole thing again and... where is the motorised chassis?! Errh.... Abella! Where is the ? train? Clarabelle! Did you see it?

wtpg: oh where? (start helping to hunt) There! (both pick up a train body and shovel to me)

me: not this... the black one, with wheels... (point to the picture on the box)

and I start looking at their usual hidding place...

this used to be their playpan but now become their toy storage and clara love to dump things inside... barney... bear... lion... santa... ball... train... ultraman, but No train!

the drawer... Nope!

the bicycle... last time I found clara's water bottle cover here... also... Nope!

After 15mins of tresure hunt still no sight of it.... Where is there motorised chassis ?? Then the maid recalled abella was the last holding it and she was in her room... and Yeah!!! We found it! The two culprit cheers for it too! No sense of guilty at all... making me almost wreck the whole hse, though they are very "helpful", running and searching high and low for it ... ... you think mummy will let you both off so easily? huh! >"<

The motorised chassis was found sandwiched between those layers of mattresses...

Finally! Here goes the cho cho train.... chomp chomp chomp... chu chu... chomp chmop chomp... chu chu :)

Durian Season is here!

Yummy! The durian season is finally here! This is the first time the girls are trying durian and no doubt, they love it just like mummy does :q Freshly pry the thorny husk, see the dark yellow, thick mushy fruit, quick, put it in your mouth, hmm... so creamy rich, bitter sweet... *eye wide* chew ji (small seed), Yummy! Good till licking fingers!

Durian is the king of tropical fruit and mangosteen is the queen. Durian is a very "heaty" fruit so "heaty base" people are advice to take mangosteen (cooling) after eating durian to neutralise the body heat. Alternatively, can also keep the husk of the durian to contain some salt and disolve with tap water then drink it! I am a "cooling base" person, so no matter how much durian I had ate, still I dont get sore throat. However, I love the drink from the durian husk! Cooled man!

I love to eat my durian chilled too! Especially durian is a high cabohydrate food, very filling... the max I can eat is about 10 seeds. So the remaining, I will chilled it for next day serving and it taste like ice-cream :q

I do have some dislike about durian... that is the expired smell left on your fingers the next day, no matter how much detergent you have soak in, the smell just dont go off. Only after 2 days... then it goes off naturally and quitely. Another thing is the urine, normally after eating durian, your urine will looks very yellowish with tint of expired durian smell, so dont be alarmed, just remember to drink more water.
Beside the exotic taste I loved about durian, durian is good for me when I have my menses cramp, better than taking panadol... amazing right?

But advise for gout and diabetes patients and extremely "heaty" people, please eat sensibly, ok ;)

The Wind in The Willow

Today I dont have lunch kaki, however that doesnt make my journey to the food centre any unpleasant. Happiness is a friend, even if you have nobody company, you wont feel alone either...

As I walk along the straight path, the sun is scorching... but I got my brolly, a nice big brolly. The distance is long... but there is breeze, flickering my long hair, I am wearing a frill top and this wind in the willow scene make me feel like a "cio-bu" again!

P/s: cio-bu, in hokkien mean beaute! Wahahaha! I sort of found my long lost identity! Wahahahaha.... :p

Up bringing

I think parents are the most influential person in moulding the children. From their character, behaviour and habit, to like and dislike for food, things and people.

I am not a very girlish person, most probably due to my childhood companions are mostly boys (my two brothers), ball games, cycling, catching, catch "long kang" fish, ultraman and fighting were my childhood's life, though they do play masak with me also. Recently I have been hunting transportation toys for my girls and my friend commented: Hey, yours are girls, why are you looking at the cars and trains? You should be looking for dolls and Teddy bears, girl should play dolls and teddy bears.

? ? ? Me pondering at his question... Heck care, as long as they like it and I like it! Hahaha! Come to think about it, their fond for those masculine vehicles, could be my influencing and letting them have constant exposure. I am the one always pointing out the bicycle, motocycle, car, taxi, van, bus, lorry, truck, LRT, train on the road to them. I am the mother who bought car & aeroplane transformer for them and still hunting for more vehicular toys.

See my girls have cultivate the love for vehicles and they really enjoyed riding on the tricycle. They love to recite those vehicles on the road and always: mummy see bus, bus c-bic! (Initially I was stun, CB???! Then I realise actually they meant, bus is big.) mummy bus no more... taxi... car... TRUCK! mummy see truck!... no more... van... motorcycle... uncle driving...

However, I not worried they will turn out a tomboy but see, they love carrying bag too... like "tai tai"
Wahahaha....

I think I just like the way... girl should be soft but not too fragile, 柔内里带钢 should be more beneficial...

As for food, I am not a choosy person and especially appealing to healthy food like fruits and veggie, nourishing soup and non process food. I do like junk food but will try not to indulge :q. And I am lucky that my girls enjoy those food I am enjoying. I think the chances will be if the mother is not appealling to the food, most probably her child wont like too. I have a friend who will cringe at the smell of codfish oil, so when I ask did she give her daughter codfish oil, she answered: Codfish? I gave her once but she cringed and run away! I was thinking if my girls dont like codfish oil, I will try all means to persuade them accept (force till they like). Hahaha, I quite fond of the unique taste of codfish since young, where I dont get to eat regulary as I was the chubby one, mum worried I will get obese.

As for people, beside mama, gonggong and ah yi they are seeing regulary... I will always tell them their 姨婆 is in HK, 舅舅 is working... So every night conversation is...
me: Where is daddy?
wtpg: daddy where? daddy working.
me: mama where?
wtpg: mama? sleep...
me: gonggong where?
wtpg: sleep... ahyi, sleep... 姨婆, 香港... 舅舅 or or(means sleep also)... 爷爷, at home... 大伯, sleep... 伯母, sleep... 姑妈, sleep... 姑丈, sleep... ... ...

I think this is the only way I can keep them remember of those people, they dont get in contact everyday.

Sunshine ! ! !

Oh! Mr Golden Sun had come shine upon me!
Hahaha! Today I am feeling so jolly happy :)
Nothing special had happened, just that I begin to be happier!

This morning I am not disturbed to see the bathroom vanity top very wet with toothbrush, lotion, cleanser and contact lens container uncovered scattering everywhere. Mirror stained with water droplets and slippery floor. This is always the condition of my bathroom after the hubby visit, like a tornado just attack!

Well, shrug my shoulder and ponder, if we got chance to move into a bigger house, Im not gonna to share bathroom with him again! I gonna own my bathroom and ban him from enter! Hahaha! *smirk internally*

When my dear hubby was changing to his work atire, he started to grumble about the maid again... what happen to my pants? The seamlines all gone! How come you didnt realise when iron? Aiyoh!!! My shirt iron till torn! What happen to you, Su..!

Me quickly interupt: Dear, let get going, we are late!

In the lift, me: Dont angry lah... I shd have overhaul your wardrobe long ago. How can I let those attire dent my hubby's professional image? People must be thinking what has the wife been doing?! *give a guilty look* Dont worry, when you reach office, get the tape to fix the hem, it shd be quite secure. Tonite then I sew for you, ok?

The console hubby, gave me a peck and say: What will life be, without a good wife like you? *smirk smirk*

On the journey to work, we had a joyful conversation too!

Ah.. Today is such a beautiful day :)

Me, sour?

I like mee pok with alot vinegar, shark fin soup with alot vinegar, 扳面 with alot of vinegar, 锅贴 soaked in the vinegar and my mum's Pig trotter vinegar is the best! But does too much vinegar cause me a jealousy person?

I dont deny lately me & the hubby are more harmony and happy with each other, though still have dispute but are just spices...

Last night we went JB for dinner after one of this hubby's friend keep advocating how good this shop 排骨王 was and we should go in to try. So the dinner included the friend and I was thinking food fiesta should be more people the merrier so I asked another couple of our friend and my mum along, mum always deserved this.

Indeed the food was yummy and cheap!$156 ringgit for 6 adult dinning. Worth the waiting too...we were caught in the jamed at the causeway. The 排骨王 was indeed good, we cant help but ordered another plate. We also had 1 big live seabass steamed in teochew style, steam live frogleg with ginger, braised bat meat (the only dish I dont like) and 月光 hor fun (nice name huh?). The stirred fried veggie also very nice , enough "fire power".

So much of yummy food but still cant sweeten my heart any as quietly I am having "vinegar"! The friend of hubby stays at our precinct so he tag along our car. Thoughtout the journey, hubby was busy chatting with him. There was nothing wrong but I was jealous for when i seat beside him, he can never chat so heartfully with me. His response to me is like answering question then fullstop. Sometime i will think am i speaking so soft that he cant hear or what? I hate talking to the log! During the dinner and journey home, I also feel that he is entertaining him only... my jealousy level shot up as when we had reached the home carpark, the hubby still asked me to go up myself first as they would like to have a puff !

Fine! When I reached home, opened the door and saw my sweet girls asleep, so cute... heehee tempted me to disturbed them a while

After Im done washing up, was 12am already! The hubby still not home yet, cant bear to part, huh??!

me msg him : What time is it?

hubby reply: Tigeress time. Hana come up in 5 mins.

me reply: Tigeress time still 5min?! Must lioness time then 5 sec?!

hubby reply: Im not afraid! Im a hunter!

me:

Though after a while the hubby was home and my anger had subsided, but I just cannot stop thinking is my hubby anything wrong? He will say thing like he missed me very much, so nice to see me after a hard day work... but actual fact every day he dont rush home straignt after work... he will buzz his friend when reached carpark and chat and puff then willing to come home

He has his explaination too. He proclaim that he will like to vent himself after an lousy day at work, so that when he see me, he can greet me with a happier face. But I feel that this is not very healthy, after he had purged everything to his friends, what he left for me is an switched off mind and empty shell, enough of talking and attention, just tire and want to sleep only z z z z z

Where is our sharing time then ?

What breed of dog are you?

Wtpg, you're a German Shepherd!

No bones, about it, you're a loyal, hard-working German Shepherd. Dedicated and always low-maintenance, people flock to you — they know they can count on you to get any job done, and done well. That focus and attention to detail spans from your personal to your professional life, too. Although you can be a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to the projects you tackle, you still manage to keep cool and laid-back in social situations. You get a kick out of the little things and thrive when you're constantly busy and on-the-go. Easygoing and unpretentious, you don't need constant pampering and reassurance. A genuine, carefree pup, you're a true-blue friend, employee, and partner. Woof!

WAHAHAHA! I take this as a compliment! Who wana to try What breed of dog are you?

Today is Father's Day!

Yesterday is then the actual Father's Day! We had woke up but the daddy was still sleeping, We shall not disturb the daddy, not untill we finish our father's day project! It not a difficult one, the girls love to draw, just drawing paper and crayon and Yeah, done! Quick present the drawing to daddy!

I had drawn a bee and a flower. A bee cos daddy is like a bee, always so hardworking and busy. Hopefully the bee can paused longer when extracting the nectar to enjoy the flower and appreciate his surronding... :)

Clarabelle requested me to include a bird in her picture... guess this girl know daddy love freedom... HaHaHa

and they girls did the final touch by doodle on it !

Moving on... To a Better Person

I had a quarrel with the hubby this morning, again... ... ... why again? I think we just quarrelled not long ago.

am I going through an mid-life crisis? I really dont like this me. One minute I am feeling secure and then next, insecure. I really cannot figure out why and I really hate going through the same emotions and questions over and over again!

But one changes I see in myself is, I get over faster this time. Usually I will brood over for whole day, sometimes over the weekend. Im happy to see me improving, though internally i still struggling.

I gonna pen down my feeling here and free myself, for I want to move on, moving on to a better person

This morning the hubby wore a new shirt which I have not seen before...

me: When you have this shirt?

hubby: It has been hanging on the rack for weeks, you didnt see meh?

me: No, but where does this shirt come from?

Hubby thought can avoid my question by diverting to ask me does he look nice on the shirt but I repeated my question again...
hubby: I went shopping with KA (his buddy and is the one I hated most ! ) during lunch.

Actually this " New shirt " shdnt triggle any crisis just that... I felt so jealous! He proclaim that he is so busy at work that now I seldom receive his calls or msg during office hrs... I dont call him also as he seldom pick up and if he does is always..."Im in the meeting" " Im in the midst of discussion" "Im driving" and hang up... he seldom initiate to fetch me for lunch... but I know he will drive to pick up frens for lunch... last time the excuse was my ofc too far... now though my ofc is nearer to his, I dont deny we ever lunch together but once only for one whole year??! I know there will be frens come telling me their hubby dont bother at all... I shd feel fortunate but still...

He proclaim he is so busy but he can affort time with frens for coffee... puffing... but no time to say hi to me

I was angry when he, instead of acknowledge my feeling, reprimand me saying he has the right to lunch with anybody! (In my heart I was thinking, yes lunch with all your frens and nver me and I wont hope for it either!) Anger must have gotta me mad, I start to pick up silly things like reprimand him for not telling me when he went shopping why I am not aware he bought new clothings... stupid! make myself silly again and giving him chance to accuse my character again!

I do have some content of suspicion the shirt is from maybe some female "admirer" nevertheless I shdnt mistrust him or making wild guess but...

He say I hv no trust in him again...

I used to be an sweety innocent gf who will trust the bf 100% but not today where I have seen so many cases of unfaithful "good" man caught me surprise...

Yah, why I hate that buddy of my hubby so much, I dono now but he used to be one of those type and have a weird mentality of relationship. He is the kind who can have many relationships at a time without feeling guilt. He is the one who asked my hubby to go clubbing and let the pregnant me stay alone at home! He is the one who dont wear the wedding ring and say ring shd wear in the heart, YOUR FOOT! Now he is lucky enough to find a good decent wife who I sincerely think that he dont deserved but shd be surrounded by women whom ultimately will ditched him and hurt him! I know Im childish saying this but... I hate him more for causing me say such silly things! I hope I will hate him lesser as afterall he is nobody to me.

... ... see whole day gone and not a sound from the hubby

无法释怀。。。

我以为已经释放了自己，一身轻，要从新上路，可是不管我怎么扑拍翅膀都无法高扬。。。 原来心中还有一把枷锁，无法释怀。。。

Me ? 2nd Pregnancy? Most Probably not...

Most couple will start planning for next child after their baby turn one or later when they are more ready. Same for us, very soon we will have to decide as our wtpg are 2 yrs old already. However, my dear hubby just happily announce that we will be planning for a "piglet", which mean by this year end, we have to success in producing! I keep silent as I have my own thought especially after my first pregnancy experience, though I dont wish to disappoint him.

Before my first pregnancy, I wish to bear 3 children. I dont find children annoying or are annoyed by children asking too many questions and attention. I love the children's laughter and voices to fill the house. I love the joy of having many children, even they acted coquettishly, to me, is melody.

However with the hubby level on family values, I really have no confidance to go through it again. My first pregnancy was not an happy one, in fact a tough one. It's really intimidating to think of repeating the nightmare again. Recalling the day I know I'm pregnant, the feeling is very magical, I can feel a special bond developing within my womb... cant really describe it but it a nice feeling and it came inside out. But this feeling was very soon overwhelmed by many anxieties, worries, cries and breakdown, one after another...

But acutally I'm still uncertain... I just have to get over the emotion and I can be a happy pregnant woman like any other mother... esp when see my frens all started their 2nd pregnancy. Definately I cant impulse over my frens are pregnant so I go along with the crowd, but bearing another child means another responsibility add on and I shdnt overload myself.

However, my hesitation can be lesser if the hubby can instil my type of mentality and give me the kind of support I needed... but, ...... sign.

Separated By A Door...

Yesterday 11.30am
My panicky maid called me in the office saying the children were locked inside the masterbedroom!!! I was shocked but I reminded myself to stay calm. I asked the maid to calm down and recite the whole incident to me before I can decide what to do. My maid is still having difficulties understanding & express in english so I have to repeat myself many times to ensure she understands my questions and provide me the correct infor.

According to the maid...
The children were naughty so she had confined them in the masterbedroom and the children dono how locked themself inside. She was very scared and my mum was not there yet. The children were not crying but playing.

Since the children were not frightened, Im not so worried but still have to unlock the door fast before they put themself into danger. I used to have the key with me but recently it went missing and before I can find it, inciddent happened. I taught myself never to procastinate again as emergency dont give signal!

I informed the daddy and he suggested to use the hammer to hit the door knob, hopefully the latch will rebounce (very witty of him) but he can only make the trip home after he had settle some work matters. Hah??! I cant be possible waiting for him to finish his matters, time is crucial to me. I sorted other alternative and called my mum. She rushed to my place immediately to realised Abella was crying and LOCKED INSIDE ALONE !!! The maid had miscommunication again!

My mum had tried the daddy's suggestion but dont work (*eye rolling*) and the fastest locksmith needs about 45mins to reach. Luckily my mum was composed and able to think fast by communicating with Abella through the door gap. She pushed a book in hoping to lure the girl stayed behind the door (afraid she might roam around the room doing dangerous act). Abella was attracted and thought that was fun and pushed out the book for mama. The 45mins wait was long but luckily she was distracted. She was frightened and will sobbed something but she knew she was not alone. Though the locked door had kept her apart but she knew mama was at the other side of the door. Their heart were linked, through the gap of the door. Clarabelle was worried for Abella too, she knew Abella was locked inside crying, kept asking mama about Abella. The frightened maid, kept crying also... my mum had to pacify her not to cry as will worsen everyone mood and suggested her to cook lunch as Abella must be hungry when she is out.

Poor mummy, I know this is alot for her old heart but she was calm enough to control the stituation. She kept me posted the stituation too and told me not to worry and concentrated on work... see, the greatness of mother's love... nothing can slander...

At 12.35pm
The long await locksmith was finally here! Abella was free! The locksmith picked her up and gave her a peck, poor girl, must be too shocked to react to stranger! But when she saw mama, she dashed forward and hugged mama... my mum cant control further and breakdown... both cried together...

A half eaten cracker was found at the scene... Abella must be hungry but she dowan lunch... just asked for milk... by then daddy was home too, to see the happy ending...

That night, after work, I dashed home and glad to see everything as usual, mama and the girls sitting at the couch watching hi-5. Still I gave both girls a beary Hug, they are my brave girls... and Thank You Mum, You are my heroin : ]

Lion & Santa

Lion was Abella new fond friend, acquainted at my mum's house and adopted home. " Mummy see, Lion sit... Mummy see, Lion walk... mummy see, Lion sleep... mummy see, Lion no poo-poo... -_-"
That day Abe wished to bring Lion along for our outing... anticipated will cause a commotion later so the daddy grabbed an hand size toy for Clara too. Introducing Santa, the red oldman. It's a mismatch but they look friendly...

I always find amuse to see the girls self play, especially Abella. That day, she woke up early (actually we slept late, Daddy and Clara still asleep) and didnt disturb me though I have awake but picked up her Lion and Clara's Santa and started self play. She putted them sitting side by side, kept adjusting their position till she felt was neat then she sat beside them. Then she made them lay down, giving each a bolster beside, ran to my side table, took my massage man, gave Lion a massage, followed by Santa and a quick massage for mummy too :p

The other part of the self play, I not very sure what is she associating but definately she has her imagination. I had an pleasant morning watching this adorable fello manoeuvring in the adult world :)

Walking with Lion...

Happy Father's Day!

I thought Father's Day is on the 2nd week of month june ??? but no, the actual day is 18 June, this sunday !!! Anyway the girls had a mini celebration with their daddy yesterday. Nothing elaborate, just a cake cutting session but to them, it was fun, cos they love singing the "happy birthday song". So 1,2,3... *clap hand* happy birthday to you... happi birthday to you... happi birthday you... happi birthday to you! Y-eah ! ! ! *clapping* and *hoo-hoo-hoo* blew off the candles.... ^_^"
and of course mommy didnt forget to prepare pressie for daddy... a bottle of nice perfume, DKNY delicious...

Since Father's Day is not over yet, maybe I will do something... afterall daddy should deserve this compliment, for his hard work and contributions to the family in many form at his way :)

This powerpoint slide was made by me last year, onbehalf for the girls, for their daddy...

Hopfully I can think of something different this year...

My Spaghetti...

Stumble onto this photo when looking for my girls past photo... Hey, how can I have forgotten about it, my Spaghetti Vongole... whatever...

Being lazy i didnt note down the receipt, but roughly remember there are clams, dried chilli padi, garlic,black pepper, white wine and the cooking method.

Dont remember that day reason but was having crave for Spaghetti, especially after seeing crazymommy blog on her Spaghetti Vongole.

Ok, check the ingredients available in house...

1. Fresh clams, definately have to get from supermart
2. Dried red chilli padi, well the fridge have some fresh chilli, bought quite some time ago, shd be dried by now :p
3. Black pepper, tick
4. Garlic, tick
5. White wine? Well red wine shd be fine too...

so off I go, to buy the fresh clams only. I bought some pepper and button mushroom also, I love veggie. And when all the preparation are done, heehee, Big chief show time!

Ha, if anybody scold me, pls dont ! Im not a forte in wine, infact I dont drink not even cocktail... most probably the wine had spoilt the dish, I shdnt have compromised but well, I still finished it all, by myself and my poor maid.... :p

(Hubby? couldnt make it home for dinner, so we finished it all :q, it still edible lah... just very spicy... to much pepper and dried chilli, basically is black pepper taste....)

Funny pic

Incidentally, I saw Abe sleeping in this manner...
arm behind head and missing one limb ? ? !
Not very 优美 for girl but definately very comfortable position to sleep in.







The next time I am back, her lower body gone missing!
