Introducing newbies in my family...

Qian Yi and Qian Thung's new cousin sister - Thung Yuan, born exactly one year after QT. Both of them can celebrate birthday on the same day from next year onwards.

Birthday celebration (Part 2)

Annual birthday celebration is not a tradition in my family culture when I was young, the only birthday celebration that I remembered was my 21st birthday buffet party. haha..

Having said that, we still make it a point to celebrate the kids birthday... not once, but twice a year.

Combine birthday cake for my 2 girls.



The 4 kids in the house...



QT blowing the candle, witnessed by her only jie jie and cousins.

Peeling off the red skin egg. EGG is QY no. 1 favourite food in the list.

Lazy weekend evening

What did my 2 girls doing on this weekend evening?

Check this out...

Milk are their all season favourite drink. Both of them are milk lover.



QY help out with some gardening work in our small balcony.

QT play in her little 'cage' while we are busy with our own activity.

Best Girl Award

I remembered during our schooling times, there were awards such as Best Student of the year being given to those student with good academic performance and good behaviour.

Last nite, QT has won a special award ~ Best girl in the house, given by paternal ah mah. :)



My in-law has a total of 4 granddaughters, aged from 7 mths old to 7 years old as well as a 17 months old grandson. QT is the second youngest in the family. The house is either full of laughter after laughter or fighting noise, and followed by crying by either one of the kid .... QT is the only one making least noise among this group of children, as such ah mah decided to crown her as Best Girl in the house award.

Congratulation, QT!!! Keep up the good work.

QY is 5 today

My big girl is 5 today. No longer a small girl like past 4 years, she express her thought to me that she would like to celebrate her big day of the year with her dearest classmate and teacher.

A simple cake with 5 candles excite her the whole night.

From her smile, i know how happy she is today at that moment.



With her best friend, Taguchi Haruka

Her class of K1 Kindess. I spend some time with her to shop for the party goodies, and engage her into the packing process. Barbie bag are for girls, and Bob the builders bad are for boys...

Looking back the past 5 years, I am so glad and thankful that I have her as my girl... Mommy wish u happy birthday and may you have a good life ahead.

QT @ 12 mo

She has just officially turned to a toddler on 2 Sept... I can't really accept the fact that she is 1 yr old now. Time flies... Recalled back the past 1 yr, every bits and pieces was just like yesterday only... the very 1st moment we saw and met each other on the hospital bed, those mid-night milk pumping session, her 1st smile, her 1st teething, and many 1st milestones was so remarkable even though she is our second girl.

At 1 yr old,

- She can stand up by herself but she still can't walk. Looking forward for her 1st step soon.

- She started to talk few words, like mama, jie jie, owl, mum mum, and e e ah ah..

- I bought her her 1st shoe. She love it so much that she always wanted to wear by herself whenever she see that shoe

- She laughs loudly when we play with her

QT is 1 today

At last, we decided on the venue to celebrate Qian Thung 1 year old birthday at the Sarkies Corner E&O hotel. Just want to leave her a memorable memory of her 1st birthday, just like how we celebrated QY 1st birthday at Shangrila hotel 5 yrs ago.

The ambiance of the restaurant is cosy. Food theme for the night was Japanese and Chinese cuisine.

Birthday girl of the night, with her brand new dress... I can hardly believe she has turned 1 today.

Mommy didn't buy any birthday cake for her on that night, as I think we will not be able to consumer any more cake after the buffet. I just decorate the cake and put a candle for her and the kids to sing birthday song... Anyway, we are planning to customise a cake for her for the coming chinese lunar calendar birthday.

This is the only photo mommy managed to take with my 2 girls for the night, as QY was too busy to play around with her cousin, Alicia and Jia Hong.



The combined immediate family members photo, except for the 3 portrait hanging on the wall..

Everyone of us leaving the place with a satisfied stomach and good feeling.

The cloud is moving...

"Mommy, come and see... the cloud is moving..." That's exactly what QY told me last week. She was lying on the sofa in our living hall while enjoying her milk... Suddenly she discovered something new and run fast to get me and told me about this while I was in the kitchen. And of course, I have to act as surprise and excited as her to look upon the high sky and the moving white cloud.

I am happy that she has good and close observation on the things surround her. I can't really remember when did I realise that cloud can be moved in the sky, but one thing for sure is it is definitely not happened at the age of 5.
