FollowLately, I found a very effective way of getting Baby to stop whining and screaming. Each time she whines and yells, I will scare her by telling her that the snake is somewhere near us, in its sleep. With her screams, snaky will be jolted from its sleep. Snaky will then swallow her up in…

Kids Say The Darndest Things
This morning after exercise at the park, hubs asked the girls if they would like to have breakfast at Ficelle Boulangarie. Ficelle is our latest favorite patisserie for breakfast. As usual, Sherilyn would defy upfront whatever our choice is for her, whether it is food, clothing and just about anything else. Everyone voted for Ficelle…

Canadian 2For1 Pizza
We saw a Canadian Pizza delivery guy at the lift of our condo about 2 months ago and got a business card from him. 2 weeks ago, we finally ordered some Canadian Pizza to have them delivered to our door step. We were skeptical on the taste initially but after the pizza meal, my brother,…
Our Eventful 11th Wedding Anniversary
2 years ago, we celebrated our wedding anniversary in the pediatric ward of Penang GMC. It was a happy day for hubs and me, though Alycia and Sherilyn were not with us. It was the day Baby was given the green light to be discharged from the hospital after a 3-week stay. 2 years later,…

Cassandra’s 2nd Year Post Surgery
Today marks the 2nd year my Baby was operated on. Exactly 2 years ago today marks the change in our lives, change for the better, though the 3-week stay in the hospital was a nightmare where everything that could go wrong went wrong. Hubs was hospitalized on the day of Baby’s surgery on suspicion of…
Awesome Website For Kids To Learn ABCs, Colors, Shapes, Time-Telling, Spelling
Mumsgather recently introduced this awesome website to me. Baby has since been hooked on this website. She plays with my laptop almost everyday and now, she hops straight to Literacy Center to learn her ABCs and spelling! Literacy Center teaches toddlers and pre-schoolers ABCs, 123s, colors, shapes, time telling and much more. It’s the next…
Cassandra’s Post Operation MAG3 Scan
Baby’s post operation MAG3 scan of her urinary tract went almost without a hitch on Friday. My motherly instinct was right. Baby was very, very, very brave for she did not let out any cry or whine during the 20-minute IV insertion session on her hand. First the doctor poked her hand with the IV…

The jig saw puzzles were all educational ones, which came in all sizes and fashion: Huge alphabet jig saw to help her learn her ABCs … Spelling jig saw, which is more suitable for…

Little Earnest Teacher
Sherilyn’s mood will normally be lifted after an outdoor activity or after engaging in some activities that she likes. When she’s in a good mood, she will dutifully bring out her homework and Math work books to start working on them. Or she will teach her baby sister ABCs and 123s! She can be very…
Choosing Her Birthday Cake
My Under-aged Store Assistant
Here is my grossly under-aged store assistant and she is not even three yet. She now knows how to help me separate the Pos Laju consignment notes into 2, which requires a degree of dexterity, something which sometimes my 2 older girls have trouble doing. I was really impressed when she insisted that she wanted…
Cili’s Padi’s Conversation
Yesterday evening, Baby was reluctant to finish her dinner. So I used my most-effective tactic to get her to finish her food…. by asking either one of her sisters to eat her food! It works 100% of the time! When Alycia ate a spoonful of her rice, Baby bawled! For the next 15 minutes, she…
