Super Duble Suay Day!!

Really Suay these 2 days!! Yesterday, I wore my new shoes to work, guess what....I ended up hubby offered to fetch me up after work.

My feet sored so much that I can hardly walk. I felt the pain early in the morning on my way to office and when I reached office, one of the blister had already burst. It was a very big blister and can you imagine the pain...... The other foot also had blister but haven't burst yet, so I thought, not that bad.....Too early to say so, this morning, when I walked out of my door, the left foot accidentally kicked the right foot and BURST THE OTHER BLISTER!!!! *OUCH!!!* Suay rite....

Then when I reached downstair, as I was walking to the car holding Renise..... as we crossed the drain, she was busy looking at the cleaner sweeping the floor and dropped into the drain!!! Luckily I was holding her and she was standing in the drain and not sit or in other position. Poor gal, she "inherited" my suay-ness today and her knee was bruised and scratched. She was bleeding and I understand how painful it was. Imagine, my feet were already in pain and while I tried to bear with the pain and hold her walking, she still fell. And it was my fault for not using the proper walkway and took the shortcut. :P

For your info, that new pair of shoes, I did try and try and walk and walk until I feel comfortable then I bought it, still....can get such problem, really suay!!! That shoes not cheap hor!!! This was the 2nd pair of shoes giving me problem. How??!!! Who can tell me where to get a shoe that fits my leg or such problem is unavoidable??!!! HIAZ!!!

Splendid Weekend

The just past weekend was a splendidful one.... It's so bcos.....nothing special, just that my Rachel is more well behaved nia...hahaha....

As for my Reyna, I find her so cute recently, especially when we scold her. She will pout her lips and swallow her tears until I start to show leniency, she will let off her tears....so cute.

That day we brought her to Marina Square and while we were having coffee, her cousins brought her to John Little, then she is so cute to insist a basket and start doing her shopping. They filmed all this down and she even tried to pull 1 of the clothing to put inside her basket.

Ok, I'm bian xin again, but I've just gonna say this.....She is soooooo cute...... All her action and behaviour. :P

Oh btw, she is a very zhuang yi person, for instant, she have a few pair of shoes, but she won't want others except the one that she's been wearing. For food also, when she's eating 1 food and you offered her the other kind of food which is nicer and better and tastier, she will still eat her current food and refuse the others....see, my gal....hahaha....

Dilemna

Last nite, while I was changing Reyna, I find her so cute and suddenly, the thought of her passing this stage soon came into my head. How I wish I could see her passing through this stage of cuteness. Like for Rachel & Renise, I've never enjoyed their stage of cuteness and now Reyna's turn. I thought I could have enjoy her cuteness for as long as they last, but now, most of the time I'm at work, when I reached home, it's already quite late and she will have to sleep soon....

Yes, you may say I buay hiao pai, say my own gal is cute, but she really is mah....:P Hiaz, guess now I just have to enjoy as long as I can for her cuteness...this stage will pass soon......

3D Doll cake

Today is my very first Attempt for a 3D cake. I'm lucky to have someone who is willing to let me try the doll cake for her niece's birthday. Here's the doll head, the top was covered with fondant. I did not cover the cake with fondant as I find it too sweet, unless that person is going for more look than taste, otherwise, I will try to use fresh cream as much as possible.

And here's the whole cake, (of cos, only the skirt is edible) with the head in place.

The skirt was a blackforest cake with vanilla sponge cake. I was kind of worried as it's quite wobbly, so hope that nothing happen during the transportation. :P

Artist in the making

Last 2 days, we went to Melaka for a short trip. We had a enjoyable trip. The photos are not with me, will upload them later. Nothing much there except we went for a short trishaw ride for the gals and I went for buy some handmade noodles and the famous Gula Melaka for my cooking. May do some ondeh-ondeh.... but today, I've got to do my 3D doll cake first.

Before I show you the pix of my doll cake and later the trip, here's my little Artist in the making:

Life After work

It's the end of 3rd weeks since I've started work....Life is not much difference, in fact, better I would say :P

I've got the freedom to go out now without the baby and my gals especially Reyna is now used to be with my mum and I can have more free time for myself. Life is not so stressful as no more screaming at the gals and preparing food (though I missed those times).

One thing I'm guilty was I realised how much my gals had grown these 3 weeks and ever since I'm working, the attention spend on Renise is much much lesser as nowadays when I reached home, Reyna will start to clinch onto my, giving me no chance to even eat my dinner and naturally, the whole nite is like that and hence the attention to Renise is lesser.

Rachel is not that bad as during this March holidays, I've started to give her some writing to do and make sure she do it correctly, but doing this, she somehow feels that she have our attention, but for Renise, as she's still yet to write and she's attending art class on Sat, I didn't want her to do too much colourings till she got so bored with it on Sat. I'm still thinking how I can keep her occupied during the day and later at nite, I can come home to view her work.

skype

Oh yes, I've uploaded Skype. For those who wish to add me, my nick is vaness813rs. :)

Newborn

Today, I went to Gleagles Hospital to visit my just gave birth colleague. Her baby gal arrived in this world yesterday.

When I was there and saw the baby, it gave me a urge to have another baby. Babies are so cute!!! and worst, deep inside me still hoping for a boy, hence there's a urge. Anyway, I've got to hold onto that plan first. Whether or not we are going to have the 4th child, we need to get some "rest" and have to plan properly as it will not be easy to handle with 1 in "terrible 2's" and 1 in "terrible 3's" stage... this is no joke. With all the whimping and screaming, it definitely drove us crazy.

1st Driving Lesson

I just had my first driving lesson last Sat. I was so excited.... so worried that I will be so slow and have a trail of cars following behind me, but I was very heng...hahaha...most of the cars managed to give way to me and I would say my speed not that slow lah... :P

I'm abit gan cheong when I first started off driving, not very used to stepping the accelerator and brake lightly (as Daytona will just step hard on the accelerator and off we go) that's why I always jam brake and created a hard stopping. Hope I will do better next time. Haha, but hor, I think I got eyes, hand and legs coordination problem...haha, dunno where to concentrate :P

I hope I will perform better this week. And guess what? Haha, so proud of myself when I drove to my mum's place myself last week. :P
