Busy Busy Busy...

It had been busy busy busy for us. ESP with CNY drawing near; less than a week to CNY!
Shopping for New Year clothes, goodies and decorations. Spring cleaning the whole house. Packing away unwanted yet considered new and useful stuff and send to Salvation Army. Not forgetting slotting time for my interviews. All above while poor Alaric is suffering from ear infection and me still having flu.
Thank goodness Super Daddy came to rescue! He does most of the spring cleaning and I am thankful that I can catch some sleep while fussy and grumpy Alaric zzz.
Adding more stress- financially, emotionally and physically, we were notified last minute that this year we can celebrate and distribute red packets. Plans to buy mandarin oranges and change notes for red packets were rush rush rush!
We hope we dun look like panda when we go visiting.

PS: rain rain go away! I need the sun to dry my stuff!!

Painting Day

Although school does have creativity craft work, we still plan at least one day per week for Alaric to have fun with Art & Crafts.

Last week, we doodle on the floor using Alex Dustless Chalks. We had bubble fun and hop scotch.


This week, it's crayons, coloring pencils and paint! Everything colorful!





























Messy Art!

Architect at work, away from school

Today Alaric is on medical leave so he is exempted from school.
His cough is not getting any better and is disrupting his sleep, or should I say it is disruptive to our sleep!
He woke up at 6+am and only managed to zzz back 7+am so I didn't have the heart to wake him up at 8am to bring him to school.
It's play time and rest time for him at home. Hopefully after a visit to PD and a good rest over the weekend will make him recover by Monday.

My little Architect at work again!


Coo Coo Train. He really sit and move using his legs.
I had been some time since he last played blocks. He still enjoys them!

Peaceful Christmas eve.....

We brought Alaric to PD again to get antibiotics in the morning. We never want him to have antibiotics unless necessary. Our usual PD is also one that prefers the child to "heal" and let his immunity fight for recovery. This time round, he had been sick for a while thus we felt that we don't want him to drag the illness and antibiotics should be given since he is constantly attacked by virus in school. We drop by Telok Kurau Animal Clinic to get heartguard for Porky after that. Then home for lunch and his nap.

We then went grocery shopping at Shop and Save. Thank goodness it didn't rain on us! After that we went home to cook a simple pasta meal.

Alaric opened his pressies and had a goodnight zzz while me and Hubbs enjoyed wine and countdown to Xmas! We wii-ed and had fun!

It's really a 平安夜!
Looking forward to party at TPY on Xmas day!
More pressies for my rascal!

Seems little too big for the tub. Haha!

Our Little Garden

We went to a nursery along Katong Road after our breakfast at ECP and library visit.

This is my first pot of plants. Don't they look like Christmas leaves? They cost $25 - 3 plants and pots and repotting soil. Not cheap. Paid by Hubbs, a gift for me! THANKS to dear Hubbs!


Hubbs gotten himself a pot of 铁树. He had always wanted to get one from IKEA but we never seem to find time to go there. Plant and pot and repotting soil only at $15. His plant seems to be a better deal. Haha.
And not forgetting our "older" members of the garden. They are all gifts from my dearest 姑姑s.
Money plant and dunno what plant they called.


Young gardener in training.


Hope the little garden of ours will nurture Alaric to love and care for plants.

Picasso at work!

We bought several items for some art fun at home.

We did some hand painting today and it was quite a successful one. Trick is not to put the pail of water for washing near the work place as he will play with water instead.


Dipping his hands into the palette.


Stamping his hand onto the MJ paper.


Fingers can paint too.


Dirty fingers!


His thighs are so colorful too!


Finished master piece!

WaterPlay at Home

We had water cum ice play today. We bought food dye to make our ice cubes colorful so we can clearly see and scoop them during our play.

I think overall experience was good. It was cold and fun and wet! Heehee.
