Bob The Builder -part 2

Eden has been enjoying his blocks bulding various tall towers. The little buider will just sing and build most of the time. Need to give him some engineering lesson though - how to make good foundation. Yes ... we all need a firm foundation.

Mother in law's mission

I am definitely not a good cook but I do like cooking especially trying out new recipes. But cooking can be expensive especially when need to buy so many ingredients that would only be use in small portion. And I always wonder how long I would store them before using them again.

Mom has given me a big mission this Chinese New Year. Its some kind of chinese believe that they cannot be in 'celebrative mood' for New Year as Grandma has just passed away last year. Therefore baking of biscuit is not allowed.

Thank goodness that she only ask me to make Peanut cookies. The ingredient and the process seems very simple and I cross my finger for the outcome. I am thinking of some Anzac biscuit too. I hope I am not too ambitious.

The Fish Brothers

Adam got inspired by K's idea of family bonding and he insisted that we take a photo of him and his little brother too. Do they look like twin :) I love this photo.

First Day at Primary 1

To my surprise he is looking forward for this day. I think he must have missed his friend at school.
That's my big boy at his first day of school. That also means his and our days will start at 6am. Yes I love my bed too :) Look at that sleepy eyes.

Drive Hazard

Dear and I have been debating about this issue for quite some time. He has somehow develop the habit or reading on the road and he thinks its a good way not to waste any precious moments while not driving. But how much can one read in that few seconds?? ie whle waiting for the lights to turn green. Well, the pasengers in the cars were assigned duties too.

1) Inform him the second that the light turn green.
2) Be ready to hold the paper when he chuck it a side in order to drive.
3) Pass paper to him whenever he is 'FRee'

Boys I really hope you don't catch this habit from your old man. Dad says Newspaper is a souce of Information. Mom says its a source of Accident. Agree ??

Break or Work at home ?

Semester break started but I have not feel the 'break'. Desserted the house cleaning for some time due to sickness and loads of replacement class for the public holidays.

A friend offered to have her maid over to help. Arrr.... but she won't be here until after New Year ... Sigh !!! So looks like dear will be seeing me with broom for at least some days.

There's some toching moments (sob.. sob..) the last week of tutorial class where they bid me goodbye with handshake and thank you. The surprise came in where some girls came and hug me and I really felt so touch and happy. At least I know its not just entering the class to provide answer but being there for them, guiding them - relationship was established over the last 3 months.

Some of them has introduced me to Frienster to keep contact. I told them I only know ICQ (that's famous during my teenage time but according to them its VERY outdated). Wish them well in the exam which starts tomorrow.

I am TWO !!!!!

Boy oh boy, i just wonder where did he get the idea that he must look good on his birthday. He slept at 6pm and woke up at 9am for his Big day. (look at the smile)

And of course another big smile when he sees his wonderful friend Bob on the cake.

Happy 2nd Birthday.

Idog

Man must be lonely that they have to create this thing to accompany them to enjoy music. We saw it at Isetan and dear suggested that I can get that for him knowing well that I will not and have no intention of getting a ipod video.

But I am sure he don't need a dog as I am there to accompany him. Maybe i need to improved on the dancing part but hey I can sing along hey !!!

Reaching the land of Narnia !!

King Adam who reigns together with King Edward and King Eden in the land of the Tews :)

The joy of giving

We normally take ages to decide what to get as Christmas gift. And will still be wrapping up the presents on eve it self. This year has been different, not sure its the christmas tree that we had at home for the first year or shopping with 2 boys press us to decide fast.


Can you spot your name on the presents boys ?? Lets prepare our hearts for the King's bithday.

Hip Hop Teacher?

This semester I am asked to teach another management papar to the Pre University students. Then I found out that I am teaching a total of 500++ students and seeing them in 13 different classes . These students will major in different course later in University ranging from the conventional Accounting, Finance, Banking, Management to the hip hop PR, Journalism, Broadcasting, Physcology students- very different indeed :)

Of couse it is impossible to remember all their faces. So sometimes I just have to smile back (just to be at the safe side) whenever student smile or look at me. Even now, I still feel strange to hear their greeting especially the -good morning teacher.

I wonder whether one will look younger if they are always with the young one. Most of them says I don't look married and they will give me a super shocking look when I tell them I have two boys and one of them is 6 years old. One possibility is that they are trying to flatter me so that i will give exam tips. I do hope its not true and they are sincere.....hahahahha

What's your favourite cartoon??

I still remember Adam singing
Postman Pat... Postman Pat....Postman Pat and his black and white cat. As a todler, Adam do not not like watching TV ( sad to say that he is a addict now) but this catchy song and the b&w cat caught his attention.

Now we hear a different song airing ( apart from the father's apple song) at home. Eden is attracted to a builder and his songs goes like this. Bob the builder.... can you fix it ... Bob the builder ... yes we can !!!

Different proffession but they both have a cute CAT :)

Christmas Tree

The boy must have got the idea from all those christmas tree conversation at the mall yesterday. We were discussing whether we should get a tree this year as the boys are much grown up now to appreciate one at home. We were still pretty unsure after looking at those price tag and I also start to wonder where can I possibly store it a a year before taking it out again for the next christmas.

Looks like our problem is solved. The boy intoduced us to his Lego Christmas Tree which come with colorful ornaments :)

Graduation Day

Well, it has come to the day where Adam is most expecting!!! Not the graduation, but the FINAL DAY for school !!!! sigh ~~~

WK and I were even more excited than him and I have to cancel my class, just to be there for him. Wonder I would keep up this promise every year.:-)

He wanted Eden to share his joy, so we brought him along. Eden was excited to hear that his Ko Ko would dance that day.

We are proud of Adam, as he received two awards, one for his academic achivement and the other for Singing Competition. Well... Singing ... we can see that he always enjoy it. Academic achievement... that is just beyond our expectation but we are happy and proud of him.

Of course daddy took the golden opportunity to share his good old day success story :) According to him, he would be given a special seat right in front of the hall during his primary days. Wonder Why ??? Well that is simply because he has too many awards to take and it would minimise his walking up and down. Adam did you get the hint from your dad? Check out whether your school provide such service :)

Holidays activities

The boys has been missing the pool since we came back from Penang and they got to dip into a smaller one this holidays. I realised that they are happy as long as there are water and toys in it :)

Lets try the latest 'waterbed' !!!

The October Birthday boys !!!

Arr.... look at those smile.... mommy has surely done a good job making them happy :)

The birthday present hint was airing at home since September although their birthday is in October. the big boy had only apple in his list and the little boy cannot make up his mind from Hot Wheels, Batman, Train Set, Games CD and etc.

I could not believe that I found the 'apple' while shopping in Megamall. The price looks good and most of all it fit in the description. Ever since then, I have been telling dear that I have got him 'the' apple and he will be well pleased with it. This is the latest 'crystal clear apple design'. Don't you think I am smart :)

As for Adam he was exited for a number of things .... party at school, shopping trip for his present, anticipates presents from friends and of course having a Happy Meals at Mc Donald. He was especially excited of a present with Spiderman wrapper that was given a few days before the big day. The trick is that he can only open it on his birthday. Boy ... oh boy the suspen is just killing .... and he just can't wait to turn 6.

Happy Birthday Boys !!!

Prawn Mee!! Prawn Mee!!

The boys and I got in the train with 2 big bag and a plastic bag full of food for our 9 hours journey to Penang. Eden was especially excited when I told him that he is going to be in the train for this trip.


We finally reached the island (with sleepy eyes) at 6am. The Hotel staff was kind enough to let us check in early that day and we knew we have the catch up our beauty sleep before our food venture

The temptation is just irresistable that we ordered Prawn Mee ( apart from Char Koay, Ice Kacang, Rojak and a lot more etc ) for lunch and dinner for both of the days.... and rated the one in New Lane to be the best. We must have been so busy eating that we forgot to take any photo.



The boys ... from the pool to the tub !!

Another special friend.

This is another special friend of Adam. She is 3 years older than Adam and I think they have know each other for 3 years by now. They enjoy playing all sort of games together. From the hi tech computer to just simply running chasing each other. They meet for their playtime with the rest of the kids on Friday while we adults have our life group together. Arr... she is a Barbie fan too.

Friends, God's special gift to us.

Tadika Suria Ceria

This is put up especially for Adam. Just in case I forgot about this bunch of wonderful girls and boys :)

There's a strong tie between all this boys and girls. ( I suppose that's because there had a lot of time playing together). Infact Adam just mentioned them again yesterday. The fact that I can remember most of their name really tell how much Adam talked about them at home. Ai Man, Jian Sheng and Adrian are his best dinasour and lego playmate. Xin Yi, she loves to draw and Adam will bring back either her's or his own potrait home most of the days. And of course Emily (the most popular girl in the class)

This is Emily. Your favorite chit chat friend. She is a Barbie Doll and Power Puff Gils fan. It was surprise that she still remember you and had asked her mom contact us to her Birthday party few months ago.


This was indeed another surprise to us. Teacher Rebecca did a farewell party for Adam and presented him with the special card and a Teddy Bear.

These are some special moment for you boy :)

Are You ready for Standard One ??

The Kindergarden days will end soon for Adam. That would mean less play and more homework - Malaysian Chinese School education system. Adam had started his pre school since age 4 and he has been in 3 different school. The first Kindergarden was very systematic and education oriented. We did not intend to start him start early but thought it's a good start since he express his interest to attend school. We changed him to another kindergarden as we are not happy with certain reward system that is creeping in the boy.

We called the second school the 'playschool'. This school believe that every child learns at different pace and see them as individual with different uniqueness. As oppose to the first school, everyone was expected to keep up to the pace of the 'champion' in the class. Wk's mom still think we should let him remained there.
Adam loved this school. Loves the playground, art work, sand playing, painting, lego sets, dinasours play, watching hamster.


This is his curent classmate. The only class and all of them will eventually start Primary 1 in this school. His 'exciment' started of with having to go back to Grandma's house with school bus as WK was not able to fetch him at noon. We 'secretly' watch him from a distance at the school area and trail the bus to make sure he is dropped safely. What is the other excitment? He came back one day (first week) and told me that there's this pretty girl with long hair and wears beautiful dress each day. Of course we had fun investigating who is that pretty girl.
