Nineteen Already


Dear friend, the little baby girl turns 19-months old today. How time flies. Things have been moving so fast these days, it's hard to even keep track of time. Sometimes I register that it's Sunday, and in a blink of an eye, the week's all gone and and my to-do list didn't seem any shorter.

Anyway, the kids' favourite things these days, apart from chasing each other round and round my knee in crowded public spaces, is going for walks in their double jogger. This jogger is a hand-me-down from my elder brother-in-law, E, and Chubbs used to sit in it alone before little Mae came along. And I'm so happy that it can finally reach its full potential now, despite the fact that Chubbs is practically busting its weight limit. Nonetheless, it makes me so happy pushing my two babies when we go for our walks around the estate, mostly after dinner. The only problem is having to break up their antics when they start harassing each other.


Another favourtie pastime is ice-cream eating at Daily Scoop. I'm not even sure if ice-cream is good for little Mae so young, but she started having her fill of the frozen treat since a few months ago. Anyhow, this keeps them quiet for a good 15-min. And that's always a good thing for me.

She Turns 17-Months Old


So guys... it's been waaaaay too long that I've been away from this page. I've just been doing this, that and the other, and haven't gotten my tired behind down to writing anything. I'm sorry.

It's been a whirlwind of a few months.After Christmas, we took a two-week vacation to Melbourne (I have yet to sort those pictures out, can you imagine?), got into the full swing of school and stuff with Chubbs, our lovely family visited from Sydney, then CNY came along, and then some possible work opportunities popped up. Quite simple put, I can't believe it's March.

The little girl is already 17-months old. Her favourite words to say are ball, Mama (both for me and for food) Daddy, Ge-ge (big brother), bay-beh (baby/ meh-meh), dar (star), bah-yoon (balloon), shhh (shoes), mo (more- usually asking for food)...

I'll be updating more from now on, hopefully. I just get too tired at night to write in cohesive sentences most of the time. Anyway, I'm really sorry for having been MIA. Please check back soon.

A Late Christmas Update


I'm sorry I haven't been updating this blog as much as I should. One of the reasons is because the days leading up to Christmas, and the main part of Christmas itself was hectic. Another reason is because when Chubbs is on holidays, I try to do as much with him as possible. So by the end of everyday, I'm so tired that I often doze off early, while nursing little Mae to sleep. And also, I've been spending quite a bit of time contributing to this fantastic blog.

We had a busy Christmas day with the extended family over at lunch and dinner at my parents'. It was all fabulous food, good company and over-eating. Chubbs was thrilled with the presents he got, and I must say, that he probably had the most fun over Christmas. Little Mae was a reindeer for the day, a recycled outfit from when Chubbs was a reindeer. It was funny how she even carried around a reindeer ornament for most of the day. Reindeer overload!

I hope each and everyone of you had a wonderful Christmas with your friends and family. And a huge shout-out to all our peeps in Sydney, Melbourne and Canada. We love and miss you guys. Hope to see you all real soon.
