Hello there....

Ohh…. I miss my blog so much! I haven’t touch it for so.. so.. long…. blame on my laziness.  I’ve been telling myself many times that I should keep this blog and continuously update it.

Sebastian is in Standard 2 now and exam is coming soon, I did not put him to tuition so I just do my best to coach him.  He has grown up so much now that I can’t carry him already.  I should have kick him to his room by now coz he still co-sleeping with us.. hehehehe

As for Sidney, she is in her final year of kindergarten and I’m so worried about her.  Teacher still complaining that she doesn’t want to speak up, even if she speak, teacher can’t hear what she trying to say until get her to repeat few times.

Just hope that both of them growth healthily.

Sidney's Day

Yesterday was Sidney’s birthday and also concert day but she was sick at the same time.  Luckily she was not cranky so we still going to her concert.

We celebrated her birthday at Look Out Point and at the same time there are few more people celebrated their birthday, it’s seem that quite number of people sharing the same birthday ^_^

It was so cooling up there and windy; maybe it’s too cold that both hubby and I fall sick. 

Not really a smooth day for all of us coz three people fall sick L





 

NOT Happy Mid-Autumn Festival

When come to festivals, everyone is looking forward for gathering with friends and relatives where they sit down together and eat together and gossip together but not for me.

All these while, my dearest SIL n family joining us for dinner whatever festival we celebrated whether MIL cook or we go out makan-ing instead of her in-law. She told us that her MIL seldom cooks during festival even on eve of CNY. She has been eating together with us for many many years, lost count. I really don’t have any problem with it, the more the merrier ma…. Rite!

So, last night she came and joins us for dinner as usual. Hubby and I came home late around 7.30pm because we went to buy duck ‘kar liew’. This is requested by MIL and they love to eat duck, so upon reaching home, I saw SIL’s car and I asked hubby, will they start eating already without waiting for us? Hubby told me they won’t la, sure will wait for us one. Sure enough when I get down from the car, I saw them eating happily and I am very very upset and angry too. My unhappiness shown on my face while walking toward dining table and they said the kids are hungry. Yes, I wouldn’t mind if the kids are eating but you all adults are eating too. At least, have a courtesy to call us and tell us, right or not. We are not going shopping and purposely come home late and it’s only 7.30pm not that 8.30pm or 9.00pm.

This Mid-Autumn festival is not happy for me anyway… forget about it la!

When we reached home, that two monster can’t wait to play lantern, actually not the lantern that interest them… it’s the candles. They play happily and we have to clean their mess unhappily… hahahaha

Sidney's Progress

A little worry about her progress especially in academic, till now she still seldom communication with her teacher and even classmates. She quite talkative when she at home, she talk to her brother, she talk to her daddy and me but why she act differently when she was outside.

When teacher scolded her, she just stared at her not even a single word from her mouth. She will play with her classmate just that she don’t talk. I really was scratching my head!!

She has another year in kindergarten and going to primary one in year 2012, she will be attending Chinese School. So, I really need to work harder to guide her accordingly. She doesn’t recognize word even a simple one such as one, two, three….. etc. Or maybe I actually pay lack attention to her becoz I’m too concentrating on Sebastian.

I have only two kids and I can’t pay attention to both of their school work at the same times. Haizz…. Maybe the problem came from me for not guiding Sidney in proper way and this make her slow in her progress.

Sebastian teaching Sidney

Seeing impatience Sebastian teaching Sidney... so funny! Hubby said just like mummy... so impatience when teaching. LOL!!

Scratches on her face

It’s almost come to half a year that Sidney went to kindergarten. Her teacher commented that Sidney is very quite, never talk at all for the first few months, even going to toilet that is why she pees several times in the classroom.

Yesterday, I got a call from in-law saying that Sidney’s face got scratches, then late evening followed by a call from Sidney’s class teacher. She apologies for what happen to Sidney’s face and told me that this small little boy playing with Sidney and accidentally scratched her face. She said she did not realize it until she going to have reading with Sidney coz Sidney did not cry at all. I thought there were an assistant but how come the assistant did realize at all. Hhmmmm…..

Upon reaching home, I looked at Sidney’s face and the scratches quite bad tough. So, this morning I went to see her teacher and have a word with her, telling her to be more alert in the classroom.



Beside, I’m also asking how is Sidney performance so far. She said Sidney improved a lot from the day she steps in but still she does not talk. She only talks to the teacher when she wants to go toilet and reading time or singing. Other than that she will just keep quite and do whatever teacher is teaching her except she does not like go swimming and gym class. She will just stood there and watch. But at home she is talk but not very talkative and asks question too. It may due to languages we spoke at home ie. Mandarin and school they speak English. Hope to see a better results on her this year end.

It's MY DAY.....

Today, it’s my day… the day I was born 33yrs ago. I remembered my mom jokingly told me that I should celebrate for her instead of me during my birthday coz that time she is at hospital struggling to get me out to this world. LOL!!! Thanks.. mummy!!

So, today I got lots of wishes from sms, FB, email, phone…. whatever communication that can get whole of me.. thanks everyone for your wishes!

I had a good lunch with my colleagues but I have to paid myself as they will only celebrate with me when my boss back on Thursday, late better than nothing, rite!! Hehehe… And I got a bouquet of flower from hubby, thanks hub!!

Just now, I happily go dinner with hubby, ya... only two of us without two monsters around, peaceful dinner huh! And happily hubby drove to the hotel for our dinner; I find something amiss but just walk hand in hand with hubby to the restaurant. The waitress shows us our seat we reserved earlier, upon seating, the waitress asking for the membership card to enjoy the 50% discount. I grab my handbag and look for my wallet…. OH SH*T!!!! My wallet missing, so I asked the waitress whether we still can enjoy the discount without the membership card, no.. no way coz it’s the procedure that I have to show them. Luckily the monorails station just a stone away from the hotel and I told hubby I will take monorail to office to checkout my wallet. Haizz.. what a forgetful wife that hubby had and really lucky that hubby don’t have to send me back to the office at this peak hour where the road pile up with cars. LOL!!

15mins later I returned to the restaurant with my wallet and show the waitress my membership.. oh ya.. and the complimentary cake as well. Half way enjoying the dinner, got a call from MIL saying that Sidney having fever and vomiting. Hubby quickly asked for the bill, gets our cake and rush home.

Although it’s a rushing dinner, forgetful wife and sick daughter at home, I will enjoy my birthday very much and I can still have many.. many.. many birthday to celebrate, rite!!

Missed her field trip

Sidney having fever for the last few days and she is getting better now. She supposed to go for her very first field trip yesterday but due to her sickness, she missed it. A bit of disappointment coz I really wanted her to go, so have to wait for next round of field trip.

Sidney at school

Day 1
Wake them up and Sidney makes little fuss, she does not want to take shower. I pray so hard that she won’t make a big fuss in the school. When reaching the school, she still OK no crying and bring her to her class room. Her teacher greeted her and she started to cry, so I let go her and quickly walk out from the classroom, then the door closed. Still hear she crying and I take a peep on her, after few attempts of trying to console her, she finally stopped crying. Then I left and waited at in-law house. Seeing her get down from the school van happily and asked her whether she enjoying schooling or not. She nodded her head and said wanna go to school again. Oh ya… she came home without her panty coz she wet her panty, LOL!!

Day 2
She did not make a fuss but still refused to shower. She still happily walks to car and chatted non-stop with Sebastian till we reached school. She got down from the car and walks to school compound and takes out her shoe. By the time she goes into her classroom, she started to cry and asked me not to go. I told her I need to send daddy to work and will wait her at granny house. She still sobbing and do not want to let me go till the teacher came and console her again. I quickly sneak out when teacher talking to her and I take a peep on her before leaving the school. Her teacher switches on the CD and asked the kids to stand in front to dance and singing but I saw Sidney just stand still looking at the kids. Maybe she still feels awkward but she came home with happy face and wanted to go to school again. Luckily!

Day 3
So, today is my last of leave that I applied. Yup.. I applied three days to be with my girl incase she make a big fuss. Today, she happily wake up and tell me she want to shower, I’m so happy and praise her so in my mind I’m thinking that my girl must be very happy going to school and will stop crying. Reached her school, she take out her shoe and put on the rack, again refuse to go into her classroom. This time, she pulled my leg and do not want to let go and started to cry. Try to talk to her but failed so her teacher take over from there. I did not look at her and quickly walk out from the classroom. Sometimes really pity her, not even reach age 4 as she is year end baby, she has to go to school already. Hopefully by next week she will stop crying, must pray hard.

Refused me to take her photo... she walked out from our room

Her reluctant look at me taking her picture

Orientation Day

Yesterday and today was an orientation day for Sidney but Sidney did not go to school, coz I didn’t bring her to school. To me I find that the school arrangement on the orientation was so out of plan. On Mon and Tue was 5yo & 6yo orientation day and Wed and Thu was 3yo & 4yo orientation, then Fri no school. After that on Mon, all start schooling together. In order for me not to struggle twice as I really do not know how would Sidney react in school, so I decided to start her on next Mon.

I have a talked with her last few days for few times telling her that she will start school soon. She nodded her and happily brings out her uniform and school bag to show me. I hope that she really prepared herself to school next week and hopefully I’ll not be struggling.

And I’ve also reminded Sebastian to take care of her sister while taking school van. Pray that everything will go smooth sailing next week. Wish me luck!!!

Chut-chut~LESS

On last Saturday morning, when she wake up and walk toward me where I’m still half awake and told me “Mummy, I grown up already, I dunwan chut-chut (pacifier) anymore, I throw away OK”….. am I dreaming or what?? So, I’m not bother to ask or praise her, coz she changes her mind very quickly.

Day one past peacefully follows by day two and day three were at in-law house where MIL kept extra chut-chut incase she look for it. Then she saw the chut-chut, she asked MIL why is she still keeping it coz she don’t suck it anymore. She asked MIL to throw it away. My girl really grown up huh… she doesn’t suck chut chut anymore.

Until today, she is not looking for it and not even mentioned about it, it’s all come so naturally, we din even force her or use any tactic for her to get rid of it. Hope that she really grown up as she said, LOL!!!

Kindie.....

I have finally enrolled Sidney into the same kindie as Sebastian currently attending. I’m longing to enroll her into this kindie but hubby wanted Sidney to go kindie together with his kor kor, so his kor kor can take care of her. So I give in for next year but the following year I will change her kindie as I really felt the current kindie Sebastian is attending is getting bad to worst. The teacher turnover is so high when he was in Pre-1 and when he in Pre-2 so far no changes of her class teacher but found teacher were sleeping in the classroom. Next year would be Pre-3, hopefully it would be a good one.

At first I wanted to change his kindie but seem next year would be his final year and he does not wish to change so I just let go. Do not want him to be so upset and get himself fit into new environment again.

Again not to miss out the Holiday Camp organized by his kindie, I’ve enrolled him too, since the last Holiday Camp he likes it so much. Managed to get one of the teacher to transport him so no worry for me now. BTW, he got another field trip next week, he will be going to Aquaria, actually am planning to bring him there during the school holidays, since he is going soon then I can save the trip. :P

SIDNEY...........

…. is turning THREE today

….. is so tomboyish

….. is very mischievous

….. is still on ‘chut-chut’ (pacifier)

….. is diaperless day and night

Happy Birthday to our dear Sidney, the princess of our heart

..... who makes our world a whole lot brighter!!

..... who spreads so much happiness all around us!!

..... who filled our life with warmth and love!!

A Busy Saturday

Last Saturday we were celebrating Sidney birthday and at the same times Sebastian is having his kindie concert. Everything was so rush, luckily there is my mom, sister and in-law helping out.

Sebastian’s kindie concert was held at 4pm at Hulu Langat one of the private school and we have to send him to the venue by 2.30pm for the preparation and we parent was directed to canteen where refreshments was served, and of coz this school won’t be missed out the opportunity to introduce their facilities to the parents too.

The concert start on time and finished at 6.30pm, should have ask the permission from the teacher to let Sebastian leave earlier but this was not pop in my mind at that time. After collected Sebastian, we have rush home luckily from Hulu Langat back to our home not that far. By the time we reached home is about 7.30pm coz we went to collect Sidney’s birthday cake and everyone was started to eat.

Although we were so rush that day but everything seems to worth it coz of them ~ Sebastin n Sidney, my precious stone.

She had her ear pierced

Few more days Sidney is turning 3yrs old, so tomorrow we will be celebrating her birthday earlier at home with close family. I ordered Cupcakes from Alice but unfortunately she was not able to make it as she is not in town, she will only be coming to KL next week, thus I booked her earlier for Sebastian birthday next year Mar, hopefully she will be able to make it.

So, today I brought my missy vain pot to ear piercing, at first she was a bit skeptical, then I told her she will look very pretty when she had her ear pierced. She was convinced and follows me to jewelry shop to have her ear pierced. She seated quietly and let the promoter did whatever they wanted to do and once her ear got pierced, she cried out loud but just for a little while, then she started to run here and there already o.O

This are the earing that I bought yesterday when we were in Pavilion for lunch

Breakfast Bento #2

This is my 2nd creation of simple breakfast, they loved it!

Last Weekend

Since my maid is here, although she is slow with her work but I got plenty of time with kids and hubby, furthermore, lesser yelling now, become more lovely mother and wife LOL!!

So, last weekend I prepared breakfast for kids and hubby, well for the kids one it’s a bit disappointed coz the eggs I’m using too small for the mould so it’s very deformed as well as the sausages is too huge so when I cut it, it’s like really out of shape. Well the kids like it so much and asked me to prepare again next time.

After the breakfast, they had Ribena ice pops which they waiting eagerly since Friday night. Then they had it again on Sunday which was mango flavour which I fresh squeeze from the mango I bought from supermarket.

They are looking forward for coming weekend to see what surprises I give them again LOL!

A Short Trip to Penang

How we spend our school holidays? Our initial planned was going to Malacca to visit n stay at my friend house (free stay, free meals everything free except petrol n toll – am I rite!) but it was called off due to hubby outstation trip, so we heading to North instead which is Penang. Hubby was in Ipoh then Penang.

I drove all the way from KL to Penang with three monkeys and my mom. Luckily they did not make a big fuss during the journey to Penang, if not I will throw them one by one out of the car. It’s quite tiring driving alone and I hope I did not get summon(s)… hehehe

It was raining when we reach Butterworth and the rest of the days were hot. Did not go anywhere on first day, rest n relax at aunt house. On 2nd day, we planned to go Bukit Bendera (more than 10yrs did not go there) but the cable car was closed so we head to Batu Ferringhi. At night was at Gurney Drive and heading back to Butterworth. 3rd day preparing to return KL and before heading back we went to my late grandfather house.

It’s was a short trip but the kids enjoyed.

Wordless Friday ~ Enjoying Their Milk...

Like Daddy Like Dotter

Since my maid left I’m sleeping with my kiddos at their room and hubby sleep at his own in our room. Normally, in the middle of the night Sidney will wake up and walked to our room and wake up daddy to make milk for her and sleep at our room. (phewwww… luckily she’s not wake me up…. *evil smile*)

This morning when I walked to our room and wake up hubby, I saw this, so I quickly walked to take my camera and snap it.

See the way they sleep, almost the same rite!! hehe
