Time flies. My first born turned 12 yesterday. I remember his every birthdays like it was just yesterday. 12 years with him yet I still can’t get it right at times. Parenting is hard. I never know if the decision we make is correct or not yet we still have to do it. It is a journey of trials and errors but I am glad together, we are usually able to overcome the obstacles blocking […]

My first born child is TEN today We went back to the in-law’s last Sunday for a simple cake cutting ceremony.  If there were only Ethan and Ayden the previous years, they now have a cousin brother to celebrate together. My sister-in-law and husband welcomed their first baby boy in May. My parents-in-law now have 3 grandchildren – all boys! I know right, I got a headache just looking at them all. LoL!  Happy Birthday […]

There is this girl. I know her since 2012. I remember her dropping by my mother’s place in Melaka during Chinese New Year to pass me some of her delicious homemade cookies. We are better acquainted over time as we meet often during blogging events. She is also the person behind this amazing Instagram account with such massive followers: @sycookies She takes beautiful pictures of food and she works extremely well with flat lay shots. […]

Ethan’s birthday was last Thursday but he was having his mid term school exam then so we did not go out to celebrate. But I did manage to boil birthday eggs for him on that day.  Today, we brought the kids back to my in-law’s to have a simple cake cutting for Ethan.  Ice-cream cake from Baskin Robbins.  Ethan with my parents-in-law and sisters-in-law. My sister-in-law helped to get the cake coz we came straight from […]

Ethan is EIGHT today! Happy birthday Ethan. Big boy dy. It’s not as easy to handle him now as he has his own personality and is at that point where he is finding his own self. He no longer takes instructions blindly. If he doesn’t like it, he’ll make sure to tell us about it. He believes in his friends and teachers more than his parents. He’s more vocal now and at some point, drives […]

We went to Port Dickson again last weekend. This time to celebrate Ethan’s birthday. With Ayden still young, turning 11 month old this month end, we do not even bother to travel anywhere far as it will be very tiring for US as well as Ayden himself. Therefore when Darling told Ethan that he can pick a place to go for his birthday, Darling also reminded him that he is only allowed to choose a […]

Ethan’s birthday was in July and his favourite KorKor Xiang wanted to celebrate with him but unfortunately he wasn’t around that time. We tried to celebrate a little later after that but both parties were tied up with dunno what and only managed to meet up today.  Xiang insisted to bake a cake for Ethan just like last year and I thought to meet outside for lunch or dinner but this dude wanted to COOK […]

My little boy is finally not so little anymore. He is SIX now!  He has never celebrated his birthday in school. The reason being he has never been to school prior to April this year. So this year he is very excited counting down to his birthday so he can celebrate with all his friends in kindy.  The preparation for his birthday started last week when we shopped for his party pack goodies. We came […]

So Ethan is finally FIVE on Saturday! We celebrated his birthday in the Studio just like last year. Just a year different from last birthday, he is way more ‘involved’ this year in his birthday planning. He specifically requested for a Cars 2 cake. He wanted a Cars 2 theme. He wanted to invite his friends and he makes it a point NO ADULT are allowed for his birthday >_< He shops for the party […]
