This is heaven, both babies are in bed! It is 9.00pm!
It's been a long day, so glad that I can have some quiet time, yet I am feeling sleepy now. Just don't think I can do much.
To all the tired mothers out there, good night and sleep tight...

Instagram Craze!
Been using Instagram a lot these days, to randomly upload pictures of my two babies and my home cooking meals pictures.
Fun, in a way, and it is also my biggest procrastinator during the day!

Fantastic Birthday Celebration!
We had a lovely birthday meal last night at a Thai restaurant called the Thai Rama, at Colwall. Food was average, perhaps we have got high expectations. The service was very good, very baby-friendly.
Anyway, a fantastic night with the 'grand parents', and Uncle Kim. A good 1st birthday celebration for Lily-May, her first birthday cake experience!

First shoes experience
Took Lily-May to Clarks to have her very first shoe-fitting. Got her her very first pair of proper walking shoes, although she cannot walk just yet. This is an important milestone for her. I hope she will grow up like most girls do, loving shoes and shares her interest in shoes shopping just like her mommy!
When it comes to shoes, you are spoilt for choice (mommy's quote)!
The shoe-fitter measuring Lily-May's foot
Which one?
We received the keepsake photo of Lily-May in her first shoes, a fit check reminder card, a first shoes book and a height chart. All will go into Lily-May's treasure box!
Later, we went to M&S and got her a cute little cardigan and a dress for her birthday too!
Will be going to have a birthday meal with Lily-May's English nan and grand dad at a Thai restaurant later this evening.We have got the birthday cake ready, and let's just hope the food is good!

Lily May is one today
I just cannot believe how time flies.
It is already one year since I hold my wriggly new born...Lily-May turns one today! Happy birthday to you, my angel. I love you! I just want you to grow up happily and healthily, forever my baby!

Missing every one at home....
It's been two weeks since we come back here to the UK. Missing every one back home in Malaysia. Even Jinc and Lily-May miss their grand parents, aunties & uncles and cousins!

Me Time!
It's 10pm, totally exhausted when my two babies have finally gone to bed!
Now, some time to myself, whether to do some reading, browsing the net or tidying up our dining-cum-study table, it is ever so precious. Hard to get quiet time like this when I have two demanding young children.
I guess it is time for me to sort out those pictures taken during our five weeks holiday in Malaysia.We took close to 3000 pictures during our five weeks stay in Malaysia, including those from my Iphone.
Love taking pictures, and sharing pictures. We used to print out photos and keep it in a photo album. With digital age now, photo taking has become so common and unlimited. I wonder how many people do actually print out photos to keep in an album. I do, honestly. I will choose those photos that speak and print them out to be kept in my ever so precious photo albums!
Here is a pic, mom and I, taken some 34 years ago, in the seventies! Glad that it is a coloured photo. I think I look so much like my mom, and Lily-May looks so much like me too! Wonder whether Lily-May will have a daughter who looks alike her in the future?
Happy Mother's Day, to you, my mom! and to self too!

More rain...
Sneaked out to town to get some jogger pants for myself while Sugar looked after the two little ones. Parked at the river side car park as it was the nearest to the high street. I only had one hour so I got to be clever with my time.
Saw that the high water level at the river, due to a lot of rain for the whole week. We used to walk along the river side, admiring the swans and the good weather. Now, it is flooded, literally. But I could see the swans were enjoying themselves!
Oh, I also love sneaking out for a quick shopping all by myself!

Lily May's first hair cut (DIY)
The length of her hair...
(BEFORE) A close-up
Lily-May will be one next week, and I think she is in need for a hair cut. I do want her to have girly long hair when she is older, she is my little princess after all.
It is quite annoying to see the back of her hair, long and growing but not the front part. Well, I wanted to cut it for her but just did not seem to find the right time to do it. I have got a pair of home-used hairdressing scissors specifically used for cutting children's hair. So, I did it today, during her bath. No mess. Just a few snips, and there it is.. not-so-perfect bob. Not bad for her first hair cut experience, I would say.
AFTER
I could remember that Jinc had his very first hair cut when he was about nine months old. He had it when we went on holiday to Malaysia on 2010. He cried so much at the hairdresser in my hometown, and I did mange to snap a few pictures though, the crying faces, and the reluctant-faced hairdresser!

A chilly Saturday
The weather is still cold and wet. We have not been going out much, as both little ones have colds and coughs.. Dreadful nights too. Hope they both get well soon, and also hope the sun comes out more often so that we get to play outside more!

A good friend is becoming a father soon!
News just in! One of my (male) best friends is going to be a father soon, for the first time!
So happy for him, a dream comes true! This is also the lunar year of the dragon, so it is going to be a 'dragon' baby!
Expect more baby news this year. So far, I have got three cousins who are expecting, one in June, and one in September. Not too sure about the other one.
Also, our good friends back home, Nic and Rachel are expecting their first born in about two weeks time, a baby girl!
I can never stop feeling excited for them! I simply love getting baby news!

A birthday party
Enjoying his juice
It's a birthday party!It was Jinc's little friend, Ed's 4th birthday yesterday. His mom organised a birthday party and we were invited.
I must say, Helen, Ed's mom was very good in organising games for all the children. I have got to learn from her as I am planning to hold birthday parties when both Jinc and Lily May are a bit older, so that they understand better.
The weather was sunny and lovely too, and after the blowing of candles, all the children went to the garden and played.
We had a fantastic time! For Jinc, it was full of fun games with other children, presents and party snacks. Lily-May was equally happy at the party. For me, of course, the good company of other moms and also great time with all the other children!
It was our very first time to a birthday party, and looking forward to attending more children parties in the future!

Back to normal...
Our long holiday has come to an end... Arrived the UK on Sunday, and for the next couple of days, we literally slept and did nothing!
Sugar is now back to work, I am now back to my normal stay-at-home mum life. The babies are getting their routine back.
It is lovely to be back, in a way... even though we miss our family in Malaysia dearly!

Kuala Lumpur...
Still in Kuala Lumpur, and not much time to post on my blog. Also, very limited excess to broadband due to my stay at mom in law's.
We are not returning until two weeks time, due to some personal matter.
So, we have five weeks holiday instead of three, and hope Sugar won't lose his job!
I am so enjoying MY holiday!
It's hot, hot, hot, in Kuala Lumpur!

Still packing..?
Flying off to Kuala Lumpur in a few hours time, early in the morning! Very excited and I just could not sleep!
Will do a short post, because I am still not done with the packing, oh dear!
Still so many things to bring and I am hoping that we will not exceed the baggage weight allowance. We only have 80kg for the four of us!
We have two large size (30 inches) suitcases, two cabin size (19 inches) suitcases, one large LV luggage, and finally, two hand-carry holdalls.
I am sure we will exceed the weight allowance, and let's see how the airport staff let us through this time!
We are using American Tourister suitcases. I thought there are some really good bargains for Samsonite too,

Packing for holiday...
Done with the things-to-bring check list, but not the packing.
I just do not know where to start.
Can't wait to go to the airport!!! Wondering how would Lily May behave on the plane?

Getting ready for holiday!
We will be going to Kuala Lumpur for our three weeks holiday!
Cant wait to see our family back home!
I am going to do a check list for things to bring...it is not easy to travel with two young children. I am sure I will enjoy the packing process, and I am also very sure that I will forget to bring something (even to have a check list)!!
