Saving money

This past weekend of 25/09/10 was full of activities, amongst which was the yearly raya open houses. This time round the kids were given "green pow".

Viki : Ok, tomorrow you kids can either go shopping or you can save the money.
Ash : Yippee...we can go shopping.
Jay: I think I want to save my money.
Viki : Good on you Jayden!
Jay: So that next time I do not need to work so hard.

This is Jayden current piggy bank...

I am a pink man

After playing on Saturday with Lauren (Luen and Audrey's daughter who speaks with an American accent), Jayden started imitating the slang..

Viki : Why are you talking with that accent? You are not a white man? You are a chinese boy.
Jayden : (Answers with an accent) I am not white, I am not chinese, I am a pink man!!

I am back!!! Milestones...

Its been almost a year since I last blogged.

I will try to start and continue blogging again :)

I have missed out so much...and would have forgotten quite a lot of things too.

My dearest Papa has since left us (21/01/2010).

I have shifted into a new house (12/2009)





















Lizi had her baby, Amanda Loong (02/04/10)

I ran my first sub-3 hours half marathon.


I turned 38 (and am liking it)


And this month marks a very special month... Jeff's turns 40 ...


And many many more milestones ...in my next few chapters. :)

Butterfly Pea Flowers

Our trips to Malacca have always been the highlight of my children's lives. Each time I need the children to behave, I just have to simply promise them a trip down south to visit their favourite Granduncle. Then for the whole week leading up to the trip, they will eat, practise piano, do their homework, brush their teeth...all without any complaints.

This time, they had real fun, helping Kong-kong Henry to pluck the butterfly pea flowers (bunga telang) for Aunty Chik to use in making her nyonya chang.

HRH

Ashley is the little princess and Hannah is definitely the Queen...

Good Job

Yesterday after music class with Ashley, we went back to Taman Megah. We were just lazying around in Alvin's room..

Ashley : Good Job (And she gives me 3 pats on my shoulder)

Viki : For what?

Ashley : For looking after ko-ko, hannah and I.

Viki : Oh...thank you my princess!

Then she places an imaginery sticker on my chest.

Viki : What is that?

Ashley : A star for you.

Cheezels vs Cheese

Jayden : Is cheezels good for you?

Viki : Definitely not!!

Jayden : But it is made from cheese !
