Mommy & Carmen

I am free today, i am not working. So, i plan to bring Carmen to Mid Valley & The Gardens for shopping. We head for our breakfast at Sushi King. It 's Carmen favorite restaurant! It was very crowded today as the restaurant having their visitors, full of kindergarten students and teachers. They are having a site visit! It's just nice that Carmen is following, she can observe the others even though not participating! It's good to expose her with something she has not been doing before.

We had our breakfast cum lunch there in a noisy environment, and our last order from was a dessert; green tea ice cream with red bean and mochi. Half way we enjoying the ice cream, only we notice that our order comes without red bean! I confronted the waitress, and the manager gave us another cup of ice cream on the house! It's unexpected........and thank you very much!

Our return with so many sea - water prawns!

Fishing fish & prawn has been hubby's favorite past time hobby lately. I have no hesitation letting him go fishing every night with his friends. He normally will come home after work, shower, and accompany us for dinner before he go out again for fishing. While i and Carmen will stay at home, accompany by Astro, either by Cartoon channel or On Demand.

There was a day  that hubby promise Carmen for bringing her to fish prawn. I followed. It's also also my first time to the outlet. I remember my last trip accompanying my hubby for prawn fishing was many years ago before our wedding. Time really flies. The few hours of fun time passes very fast and we've got our prawns home!

X'mas in Ipoh

The old couples so happy with grandchildren around for the birthday celebration!

 
I will be going back to Ipoh every year during Christmas to celebrate my Dad's birthday. Before i married, i am the one who always organize and pre-arrange the event for him. Normally it will be a close family dinner. After my marriage, the arrangement will be handle by my sister. Now she is in the last tri-semester of pregnancy, she cant do much for arrangement this year.

We end up for a dinner at a restaurant in Ipoh Garden this year. The food are great, satisfy our tastebud! I regret for eating too much! But the food in Ipoh are really irresistible!

Nowadays is quite difficult for all our siblings to gather for a dinner, as almost all of us are having our own family. My elder brother is the last who get married in the coming March this year. We all are staying all apart from each other. Yet still, I have to call them from far and confirm with them earlier, just to make sure they are okay with the date and arrangement!

Mosquitoes Kisses & Minor Accident @ Home

See Jeanne nose and cheek with red mosquitoes kisses spots?

My poor baby Jeanne cries throughout the night while sleeping in her baby cot. Initially i  thought that she played too much during day time, and she was having her bad dream. That's why she cant sleep properly. I have a tiring night waking up to comfort her. I decided to put her back to her cradle to sleep. And what's up next morning?

While i carry her out from the cradle the next morning when she awake, i have a shock of my life. Most noticeable is her nose and cheek, pretty much swollen, the caused from mosquitoes kisses.There were more when i checked out, there are some more kisses to her forehead, and both hand's fingers. Poor girl..........

While having her  tea time later, she fell down and cried out loud, i know it's not a good sign. She  must been hurting herself from the fall. After i comforted her, i found out that chunks of rice crackers from her mouth started to turn red, there were blood soaking the crackers.My goodness, i found out that her gum bleeding, i quickly let her drink some iced-water to stop the blood flowing out.

To add to my horror, Carmen called out loud from the living hall for me. Carmen yelled "Mommy, Mei Mei tooth falls on the floor!" I quickly ran out to the living hall and checked out, there was a tiny white creature on the floor, my hearts beating fast, picking it up, found a chuck of cracker that Carmen thought was a tooth felled out from her sister gum. Lucky me, i escaped death sentence by Hubby!

Malay Stall Breakfast @ Taman Sri Andalas

Many will not belief that Carmen actually likes Mamak & Malay food. To me, it's normal if she likes Mamak & Malay food. It's a norm here that people will lepak at Mamak Stalls at anytime for a cuppa of Teh Tarik with Roti Canai! Maybe that's call 1 MALAYSIA! You will see people of all races gathering at Mamak Stall everyday.

This morning i brought Carmen to our old place for breakfast. We used to stay there before we move to our current house. When i was pregnant last time, i visited the Malay stall every morning for breakfast without fail with hubby. I think my last visit to this stall was 1-2 years back with my ex-colleague, Michelle, who likes Malay food too.

Coincidence, i bumped into my ex-Sales Manager, Azha today. He was with his family, his wife, June and 2 lovely daughters. He was so kind, he insisted the bill on him! Haha.....we've got free breakfast this morning!

ANAKKU Warehouse Sales

This "Pooh Bear" buggy seems to be everyone favorite now, suits perfectly for Carmen & Jeanne

Shop till you drop! Since i have my Carmen, i have been visiting ANAKKU warehouse sales 3 times out in 4 years time. The warehouse is very near to our neighborhood. Without fail, every visit sure spend a few hundred ringgit. Same to this current visit. Spending near to RM900 this round!

I fetched Carmen from school after the visit. She dont even have a good space to sit inside my little Kelisa. The passenger seats already been occupied by my new stroller, which i love it very much. Same to Carmen. I bought plenty of water bottles, milk bottles, and many new clothing for both the girls. Some can be worn during coming CNY too. Myself also have some new Disney T-Shirts! Not bad.....

Carmen helped me to clean and arrange the bottles, checking all the clothing and viewing her new clothing. Thrust she also like it very much. I've got something extra to give away to my 2 SIL too!
