An elderly woman knitted this cuddly toy!


Very lovely... Nanny gave Lily May this teddy as one of the Christmas presents. Love the colours and love how it feels when I hold her.

This teddy looks very 'homely' and I instantly fell in love with it. Just the other day, I was flipping it around trying to find where it was made, hoping to find her name too, but could not find any labels. So I asked nanny where she got it from. To my surprise, it was hand knitted by an elderly woman, whom she looks after on her day-care job. The woman is in her eighties and I she loves knitting on her free time!

It is good to know that someone made this with love, and we are loving it as much as the woman who knitted it!

Rock N Rolla Cow!

During the day, refuse to get down after a few rounds...

Still think it is a lot of fun!

Ride on it for a few more rounds before going to bed!! (..and he thought he looked cool with a cap on but in his pajamas, oh dear! He put the cap on himself and wanted me to take a picture, how cheeky!)


Jinc's favourite ride-on toy for the moment, the Rock N' Rolla cow. It is a Christmas present for Lily May from Sugar's colleagues. But Lily May is still too young to play with it. Its wheels can be taken off, and the cow will become a rocking cow instead.

Jinc prefers it with the wheelie way, and he could just wheel around our lounge in the 'fast n' furious' style!! It looks quite funny when he is speeding by just holding the tiny cow's ears!

Check out Amazon for more Rock N Rolla toys:

Lily-May is eight months old!

Not a good week, Lily May has got a temperature, due to teething. Therefore, she could not sleep well during the night, and neither do I.

Dreadful to see her feeling uncomfortable,my poor baby. She also has some rashes around her cheeks, neck, chest and a little bit at her back. It is teething rash as well. Been giving her Calpol and hope she feels better soon.

Just can't wait to see her first tooth cutting through...

My girl...



Lily May is such a happy baby. Too cute!

Lily May, my sweet heart,you make me happy every day.
Words just cannot describe my love for you.Your very existence is a dream come true. I love you unconditionally!

Home, faraway


We are going home to Malaysian in March, to celebrate my brother's wedding!

Also, one good reason for a holiday abroad. It is going to be our very first family holiday with two young children. Very looking forward to it.

It will take us at least fourteen hours to reach home by an aeroplane. Too far, and I wish, one day I could live closer to my family, and closer to home, fourteen-minutes-drive will sound ideal!

Looks like I am having a bad week!

The washing machine in the house decided to stop working, and it is no way for me to do a hand wash!

Can you imagine how bad it is going to be for a house with two young children to survive without a washing machine, and it is winter!

Thank God I have got nanny's help, and we are doing the 'washing-run' on the weekend. Will take the washing to hers and collect it the next day!

Hope the new machine won't take long to arrive!

North Face

The winter sale is on, just can't resist hunting for bargains.

Sugar browsed some websites the other day and bought ourselves a North Face body warmer from their official site.

Sugar got the black one, and I chose to have the brown one. We received the parcel today. Very comfy and practical, just what we wanted. I think it looks very nice on me too! The best part is, it is 20% off the normal retail price. What a bargain!

Amazon has some really good bargain for North Face too! Check it out!
