Happy Birthday to Kong-Kong


Last Saturday we celebrated Kong-kong's birthday while we were back in Melaka. Nothing much special for dinner, but just a cake (my favourite Mille Crepes) for the kids to blow candles (instead of their Kong-kong!).

It was the first time the boys were back in Melaka, after their birth. I was supposed to meet up with a few old friends and some bloggers in Melaka. Too bad, we did not make it as our meeting place, Dataran Pahlawan was too pack (due to the going on PC Fair!).

However Miche came over to my mum's place and we had a great chat! So good to see you again, Miche, and hey, you look good with your bump ler... (at least can see you gain some "inches" at the right place, haha!)

Another outing to a wedding luncheon

I am lucky that I still able to go out to attend a wedding luncheon this afternoon with this super big stomach. It is a family wedding, and it is fun to meet some of my hubby's relative from his hometown.

But it is really difficult to walk up the stairs, especially when the hall is situated on the 2nd floor. And moving around the tables is really not easy, when the chairs are arranged too close to each other. But I really enjoyed myself, this time and the attention I got with this super big belly!

Thank you, Aunty Kuan!

I am really grateful that my daughter's ex-nanny is just staying 2 doors away. After having breakfast/lunch, QQ got so excited seeing her nanny washing the car porch and wanted to go there immediately after our car reach home.

It is a relief to me that someone is entertaining her while I can complete my work and take a rest. Thank goodness it is also a public holiday, so that I could spend more time on bed instead of having to handle her alone at home.

A hope fon the Wesak Day

My family is going through a very hard time at this point of time. Some discussion is being held between my family and my sister's in-laws, trying to figure out what is the best solution that can be arranged and made to my sister's marriage since she is having some health problem right now.

I lighted a candle for my family, on this very special day of Wesak, hoping that they could get through this moment smoothly.

All the best to you Lin, and may you recover soon.

Sad Mother's Day

During Mother's Day, we came home late at night. A a close family member called up to tell me again some bad news. His wife again threatened him that she will die together with their 2 little kids (wife trying to feed the children with Panadols while the hubby challenge them to take Clorox instead)…..sigh…..not going to go into details here but this husband and wife problem has been dragging for so long, and it is almost never ending, leaving us all of us so tired at all time. Good thing that this morning I found out that the wife just ran away to stay in a hotel, for the 3rd time with her kids…..

I told hubby, that I feel really blessed that our marriage our love is still going strong. Wonder is it so normal for husband and wife to have sour relationship like that when a marriage is still that new…..

Great way to celebrate Cheng Beng

Do you go to your ancestor tomb every year for prayer?

My hubby's family practice this every year during Cheng Beng. During this annual festival, each of the family members, including the children will wake up early and go to the tomb to clear our ancestor's tomb. Besides offering food and burning some paper money, the children are practically having fun while helping the adults.

Since I am pregnant this year, I did not join, nor did my little girl. We could probably go next year, if there is someone to help me with my little ones.

Our 1st day of 08' CNY

Finally it is the 1st Day of Chinese New Year. How time flies....

We did not go visiting anywhere today but only stay at home and sleep. We only went to Hyatt Kuantan to see the lion dance this morning and then came back to sleep since the weather is so windy and hot this afternoon. QQ at least have lots of cousins to come over and play with her so she could leave me alone to rest, haha.....!

We wake up very early this morning to get everything done before we go back to our hometown for Chinese New Year. This year, we would go back to hubby's hometown first (for our New Year eve reunion dinner) and then only back to my hometown on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year.
