Jewel's 2012 birthday!

As usual, she invited her classmates to her party. This year Bella prepared and cooked all the food herself as its more economic. Cost is almost halved to what u have to pay if you buy or order from outside.

The kids all went out of control during the first game set. The second game set also set us laughing till we drop as we saw them practicing the Michael Jackson's moves at Xavier's Xbox kinect which Tatwei bought for him.

I bought the cake for jewel as her present and I think it's awesome! Bella had this cake for Tatwei's birthday and we were in unanimous in favour for this flavour! Even jewel who don quite like cakes!

The birthday girl had one of her most expensive and sought after present for her birthday from her daddy - it's an iPod!! ;)

Not forgetting my Lucas, he also had a pressie from his best friend! Bella had Xavier helped to choose an ultra man DVD which he had been asking from her! Ultraman mebius and the 8 brothers!

The most tiring person for the whole birthday is still THE MOM! When all kids are busily having fun, my dearest sister was busily planning for games, food, goodie bags, presents for games, the heavy and massive aftermath cleaning up! She is simply the BEST! Kudos to Bella!!!!

Enough said! Now the pictures!!!

A phone call from my boy

Lucas: Mommy, where are you?
Me: Yes I am in the taxi

Lucas: Do you want me to fetch you or yimama or jewel Jie Jie?
Me: Yes I want you to fetch me

Lucas: But I don know how to fetch you. How about I get yimama to fetch you
Me: Ok!

At the playground

Lucas loves playground
All kids does

And somehow he felt that it's a restaurant so he will ask me "mommy what do u want to eat" then he will play pretend to cook at e playground n bring it to me. I think this is under the influence of jewel jiejie!! Lolxx

I see them

When I look at their backs, it makes me feel old.

It makes me feel good.

To enjoy this sight that they r together and how much she loves him and how much he is dependent and loves her.

It is such a nice feeling.

By the window tonight

The chills reminds me of the chilling nights in windham.

It got so cold n chilly that a few nights we had the heater on! The toilet seat was so cold too when I had to go for a leak in e middle of e night.

Three years ago. Nope. If now is aug, then it would be four years ago. The courage that ate me up sent my flying to windham. This time around I can't fly. I have my kid. I have my work commitments. The last time there was no kid and I dumped e work commitment.

It was such a long time ago... Every night I would wished for someone to be around Skype so I could talk to someone in SG. It was always short timing but at least something. I was something then.

Looking back

Recently hubby's brother's kids celebrated their first birthday! I was unable to go due to company dnd falling on e same day!

I was looming through sil's Facebook on e pics of the celebration and gosh realized that time really flies! Lucas is already three and in fact is only 1 yr 4 months older than the boys who jut celebrated their first although by year, their age gap should be two years but it's actually not! Just like trevonne who is only one year old than Lucas, she is in fact more than 1yr 6months older than Lucas! These kids really grow so much and in such an astonishing rate that we just can't catch up with them!

I was just thinking "what was Lucas doing at 12 months old?".. So I flipped to see my Facebook... Oh well, he was very adorable! Ridiculously cute and lovable, he was cruising all e time and trying to kick balls at e same time! It was a great time for me too! He was learning to say lots of words and is able to express himself even then!

Strong in opinion, he chooses which Group of cliches he wanna be with and which ones he doesn't. Isn't that amazing?!!

As I blogged, second mini is making his movements perhaps to remind me that one more naughty boy is comin! To make sure that my life is worth living and even more meaningful!

Have I chosen a name yet? Not yet?!!!!! I am so torn on which names!!! Please help :))

These pics are taken when Lucas was 12 months old! Aren't they amazing?!

Happy valentine 2011 in advanced!

情人节快乐

Dinner!

We like this place - chef's place.

The chef came from a reputable hotel's restaurant n ventured on his own.

Our verdict - even the fatty parts are edible n awesomely wonderful!

Pay a fraction of what you would pay in a hotel!

Going to school

It's not easy for me to wake up at 630am everyday.. So I wake up at 645... Make milk, bath my toddler darling, make cereal or oatmeal and pack him up the school bus. Monday to Friday.

But I am glad I did it. It's a wonderful feeling. Although its tiring to have to put him to bed at 830-9pm everyday and then the routine continues.

I sees parents especially mommies getting up at 5am like Bella to do this routine. It's amazing what mommies can do and will do for their children.

Prior to that, nobody tells me what a mommy have to be committed in this sense. It's seems a norm that all woman should know this. But wait, how is it that I do not know?!!

Commitment to a husband then commitment to our children. Sometimes I wished I am a 9-5 working mom so that these responsibilities can be either thrown to the maid or the in laws or parents. Haha! Easy to throw away the kids's responsibilities once you have a job.

But I have chosen this path. The path to tiredness and heavy responsibility to behave like a maid at times. I am not sure if this is for life. But for now, I love to be with Lucas all my time. Even if I have to sacrifice my morning.
