My 3 Gals – HEALTH FREAK MOMMY

A Little Update On My 3 Girls ❤️

Posted on May 8, 2026May 8, 2026 by Shireen

It suddenly struck me that I haven’t shared much about my 3 girls lately. Some of you may also be getting a little bored of my gym and strength training videos with my mum 😄 So here’s a little life update on my daughters. Alycia, my eldest, flew off to Ho Chi Minh City today…

My Three Daughters’ Different Takes on Public Transport

Posted on June 4, 2025June 4, 2025 by Shireen

Of my three girls, it’s fascinating to see how differently they each view public transport. Alycia, my eldest (the ‘princess’), has always been the one who flat-out refuses to take the LRT or bus. She prefers the comfort and convenience of a private ride—understandably so—but it does make logistics a little trickier sometimes. And the…

Random Updates on My Daughters

Posted on March 17, 2024March 17, 2024 by Shireen

Life as a parent is a beautiful whirlwind of emotions, filled with moments that make our hearts swell with pride. Here are some updates on my daughters, each carving their unique paths in life. Cass, my resilient figure skater, had a big day today. Rising with the sun at 6 am, her dad sent her…

Baked / Grilled Squids

Posted on September 22, 2018September 24, 2018 by Shireen

I bought a bag of calamari (squid / ‘sotong’) from the pasar malam yesterday. My three piranhas are big fans of the ‘sotong’. No wonder they can be quite a ‘blur sotong’ at times ? I told the girls that I’d like to try baking the squids in the oven but we would have to wait…

Big Rat In The House

Posted on September 20, 2018September 21, 2018 by Shireen

Someone did it again. After sneaking out my favorite Whittaker’s hazelnut dark chocolate bit by bit on a daily basis and finishing almost the entire bar, she left one itsy-bitsy piece of chocolate in the Tupperware container for me. Because she was scared I would reprimand her for eating chocolate everyday and say that she’s…

School Holidays Activities

Posted on August 23, 2018August 23, 2018 by Shireen

While Alycia hibernates in her bedroom revising for her trial PT3 exam, Drama Queen spent her time baking in the kitchen and Cass did what she loves most ~ burying her face in her novels and making a ‘Massage Coupon Book’ for me ? Other than working out at the gym for 1-2 hours daily and…

After School Snacks

Posted on March 9, 2017March 9, 2017 by Shireen

Wednesdays are CoCo (CoCurricular) days. Drama Queen and Cass will be home late, at around 4ish pm. Whenever they are back from school, they look and behave like feral dogs — they will dart straight to the kitchen to check every nook and corner in search for food. At the sight of food, they will stuff…

Holiday Activity – Cookie Baking

Posted on September 14, 2016September 14, 2016 by Shireen

This idea was entirely Drama Queen’s. And I entrusted her with the entire task as I knew she could handle it pretty well. Except for helping her with the oven and checking on the doneness of the cookies, Drama Queen enlisted the help of her 2 side-kicks on this holiday cookie baking project today. She…

Yummy Kitchen Tales

Posted on August 26, 2016 by Shireen

My 2 kitchen side-kicks helping me to peel and chop garlic and onions. I am SO thankful for them coz I HATE this chore! They bicker and fight a lot but when they yak and laugh non-stop with each other, it really warms my heart 🙂 From a mere kitchen helper just earlier this year,…

The Girls’ School Sports Day

Posted on June 27, 2015June 28, 2015 by Shireen

We reached school before 7am this morning for the girls’ sports day and spent 7 frigging long hours in school!! Today is the day that the girls have been waiting for months. They have been diligently practising the Sports Day dance and running events for many months. While today is the day that they looked…

Little Kitchen Helpers

Posted on December 23, 2013December 22, 2013 by Shireen

The girls helping koong koong and granny in the kitchen yesterday, in preparation for our Dongzhi festival dinner at home in Ipoh… The girls helped to scrape arrowroot skin and to remove peanut skin. While they were helping, granny fed them with papaya haha! I have made it compulsory for the girls to eat fruits…

Little Miss Social Butterfly has parties and activities lined up this school holidays. Yesterday, she had a birthday party to attend. In the morning, BY – Sherilyn’s BFF since pre-school came to our house to have a pre-party girly preparation. BY helped Sherilyn paint her finger nails and choose her clothes for a ‘fashion show’…

Haze Holiday – 25 June 2013

Posted on June 25, 2013June 25, 2013 by Shireen

The girls have been getting bored and restless today, which is the second day that they are kept away from school due to the haze. Besides watching TV, playing with the laptop and doing some work that I have given them, they goofed around and played ‘Getting Married’. Alycia : “Sherilyn, do you take Jonathan…

Girl’s First Train Ride

Posted on November 29, 2012November 29, 2012 by Shireen

I had wanted to bring the girls for a train ride from KL to Ipoh since KTM launched the ETS (Electric Train Service) not too long ago. Apart from the monorail train ride in KL, the girls had never been on an inter-city commuter train ride. Since the girls’ grand aunt was able to accompany…

Bye Bye Angry Birds, Welcome Smurfs and Animal Kaiser!

Posted on November 5, 2011November 5, 2011 by Shireen

I think I can say good bye to Angry Birds and start to welcome yet another craze in my home. Just like any other kids, my girls are riding in the Smurfs band wagon now but their obsession is not as bad as Angry Birds. Good ol’ sporting granny has bought them each a nice…

Why We Love Wednesdays and Saturdays

Posted on July 2, 2011July 2, 2011 by Shireen

My girls love Wednesdays and Saturdays. That’s because they are my Princess wannabe’s ballet class days. That’s when she gets to meet her fellow ballet classmates, who all seem to possess the same style and traits as her. They say birds of a feather flock together, how true this adage is haha! For Alycia and…
