So the long weekend will soon be upon us. Any plans ?
We are expecting some friends from our neighbouring country and I am looking forward to seeing them! This will be the first time we are meeting after we both had our babies and XY will have her first play date.
Hopefully the weather holds up [...]

Gone shopping

The past 2 weeks have been a big mess of undesirable happenings at home. Apart from the fact that everyone fell sick, Xinyue fell out of her cot last Thursday. She must have been leaning over too far and lost her balance. It was the most nerve-wrenching thud and heart breaking cries I have ever [...]
Hawt!

Is it me, or are you also melting in this sweltering heat??
Everyone in the family is officially sick, some even twice over. I blame the darn weather.
Our house has many glass windows which are kept closed so the heat comes in and doesn’t go out (remember the greenhouse effect?). Usually I wouldn’t know how hot [...]
30+1 = balloons!

KJ turns 31 today. (As you can see, April is a busy month for us).
I had plans for a nice dinner at Pregos but they were flushed down the drain when the little girl (and me) fell sick. And I had no time to sneak out to buy him a present! What to do??
It was [...]
Sick again

Shortly after turning 1, the little girl fell sick again. In fact, almost everyone in the family took turns to fall ill and she happened to be in the path of the tornedo. Must be the very bad weather. Ack. Even I was not spared. KJ is the last man standing and I hope he [...]
Xinyue : 12 months

Whenever I write Xy’s progress reports, I find myself having to refer back to my archives.
What did she do last month?
Did I talk about this funny thing she did?
Every day, she continues to surprise us with new things she’s learnt. Like squatting slowly from a standing position, or walking unassisted for a few steps on her own. [...]

Over the weekend, we had a family dinner and celebrated our little girl’s birthday.
The lack of planning caused a few boo-boos e.g. the birthday girl staying up for almost 6 hours without a nap, us forgetting to take a video of the birthday song singing and cake cutting. Nonetheless it all went well and the [...]

More to come.
Thanks a gazillion to our dear friend Paul, who sacrificed his love of eating to help us with taking pictures.
Checking in

Just checking in in case anyone was wondering where I was.
This week has been crazy. Work, sleep training, more work, more sleep training. All the fatigue built up left me wanting more sleep instead of blogging, although I have many things to update.
The company’s financial year-end is finally here and my week has been a [...]
It’s a hit!

Kinda.
Xy wasn’t a fan though but I wasn’t holding my breath.
So, here it is – served with a side of mashed potatoes and Amatuer Gourmet’s Best Broccoli.
Sorry about the less-than delectable picture – this was taken off KJ’s handphone camera. I can tell you that it tastes better than it looks.
I wasn’t able to find [...]
