Children

How true...

A baby will makelove stronger,

days shorter,

nights longer,

bank balance smaller,

home happier,

clothes shabbier,

the past forgotten,

and the future worth living for.

Audrey's Birthday

Today is Audrey's birthday. In dog's life, she is 49 years old, that is, 7 years old in human years. We are going to buy a birthday cake and sing her a birthday song. She will not be able to eat the cake (we never feed her with human food, she has her own expensive dog food). We bought special treats for her though, so she can have her chicken today.

Since the birth of Kaylen, Audrey kind of get neglected. Mummy's hands are really full with the 2 human kids. No time to play tug of war with Audrey. One thing about Audrey, we know she is not happy when she just refused to pee on the paper that we laid for her. Mummy has been busy cleaning up her wee every day.

Guess we are not good dog owners after all. Sorry Audrey, despite giving you premium dog food, invest in dog mutli-vit, send you to expensive dog grooming and buy you accessories, etc... we are not able to give you lots of tender, loving care and our time and freedom as much as we want to. Please forgive us.

Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year is another 1st for baby Kaylen. We bought new Chinese style clothings for both Kyrene and Kaylen. Both of same material, Kyrene's one is cheongsam while Kaylen's one is a cheongsam top with pants. Kaylen is actually wearing the size meant for age 1 year old!

Kyrene's 6th Birthday Pictures

Finally got some pictures of Kyrene's 6th Birthday Celebration at home...

Sorry, no time to update...

Yo, for those who have been viewing our blog, sorry lah, too busy to update these days.

Quick update:
We are somewhat struggling with Kaylen. Its been almost 6 years ago, so a lot of things, we kind of forgot what it was like or what/how to do. Back then, my sister and my mum were around to help out most of the time. This time, I'm really very hands on myself. Sometimes, when Kaylen cried so hard, I wonder what I did wrong and if I had been a bad mummy.

We celebrated Kyrene's 6th birthday in Jan over a few days. She had a mini birthday party at home where we invited her Kindermusik kakis and 2 other families. Ernest was down with HFMD, so he could not come. Chloe and Ashley were also not well on that day and did not turned up. As usual, we got too much food leftover. The worse was the birthday cake. Too big for so few people. We will post the photos when we get the softcopy from Daphne.

On Kyrene's actual birthday, we checked into Siloso Beach Resort in Sentosa for one nite stay. The hotel room is not quite fantastic, so we did not stay 2 nights as initially planned. We basically relax by the pool, went up the Merlion, Johnny and Kyrene went to take the Skylift and luge.

CNY - we had an early reunion dinner with Helena's family on 2Feb. Ate a lot of chilli crabs. Reunion dinner with Johnny's family was on eve of CNY. Usual, had steamboat. This year, the mood was dampen. Basically, just go through the motion (reunion dinner, lo hei, bai nian) with Johnny's family.

So much for now, its 1am now, need to go get some sleep. Will update soon...
