Scene 2: On the way home from MIL house last evening. BB: Mommy, TOL….*point point to the Kerinchi TOL* Mommy: Yes, TOL, mommy has to pay TOL before using the road you know. Mommy: After paying TOL….Tu Tu… BB: …TOL….TOL…*point to my Touch n go card* Mommy: ok, just play awhile only, mommy need to pay the second TOL BB took the card, sitting on his car seat and swiped the touch n go card to his left and made the tu tu sound. He shouted “TOL mommy TOL” Whao, BB so clever ah, know how to pay tol already. *Smile smile* Scene 3: FIL was driving, out of a sudden; BB got so overly excited and ordered his grandpa “Gong Gong, Stop car, park park”. Apparently, there was a children playground, he wanted to go and play. Little BB is growing up more and more each day.

He threw tantrum

The weather these days reminded me of winter time in foreign land. It’s a little cold and depress in the morning but after a steamy hot shower, everything seems fine. It washes away the dead cells; rejuvenating the flaky dry skin with moisturizing crème, bringing back pleasant appearance to life. It's easy to deal with lousy appearance but... Dealing with BB’s tantrum, what can I do to make him stop tumbling his feet and crying demandingly? I wonder was I like that when I was little? BB will cry for things he wants if we refuse to give him. I think he has tumbled his feet 5 times in total, turning in circle 2 times, sticking his face on a glass drawer 1 time, crying furiously 7 times, laying on the floor slamming his palm 2 times. He was definitely testing our patience. If we give in, he will be ok in minutes wiping his tears away on our shirt and continued playing with what he has achieved. There were this instant, he was perfectly ok eating his fish stripe snack but the moment he...

BB is on Training

We had a great day out with BB after his first birthday. Bought him a new motorbike with his ang pow’s money and keep the rest in the bank. He was quite worn out after all those walking and shopping. The motobike is a bit heavy so we let him drive from the toy shop to the car park, he attracted lots of curious eyes. Mommy "pai sei" la. He is on NO diaper training during day time. Progress pretty well. Whenever he wants to pee, he will call for “she…she…” after peeing he would spray it away with the metal hose. (what's the word???) Helping out house whole chores after makan. Wipe, wipe, wipe!

Cheer up baby!

My husband told me this morning, he is extremely “soi- bad luck” now. These two days nothing seems to be smooth sailing. Firstly, the water filter burst and he was trying to save some bucks to have it fixed himself instead of calling a plumber. Unfortunately it didn’t work out for him, worst still he had to spend more. Secondly, he was misunderstood by his client and had a bad day. Thirdly, his fax just busted as well. Fourthly, there was a black crow giving hoarse cry outside our house this morning. Well, I would like to think that it’s ups and downs in life; it’s wear and tear. There is this Chinese saying , when one is being clouded by bad luck till it reaches its threshold, it will turn to be auspicious good luck. Well, I think you are at the lowest part waiting to bounce up high in this coming New Year. Cheer up darling!

Happy Birthday to BB

We celebrated BB’s 2nd birthday on the 18th of November. Everybody reached home around 7pm. I was the first to reach home, followed by FIL, SIL, hubby and BIL. BB has been changed to a new set of cloth bought by his grandmother. He was extraordinary happy somehow knowing that it was his special day. In the morning, MIL let him practiced blowing candle. I guess he has been anticipating for the special moment. Over the phone, hubby asked me what I bought for BB. I told him to come back and check it out himself. Upon reaching home, MIL asked me if we needed “Hong Kai Tan – red egg” for the birthday boy. I think we need, after all it’s only once a year and it’s a Chinese tradition to have red egg and “min xin- longevity noodle” for abundance, good luck and longevity. MIL thought it’s quite messy to dye the whole egg; she came up with a creative idea- that is to paint the egg like Humpty Dumpty. Each one of us painted the egg, they all looked different and then BB is asked to choose one for...
