I was just telling my mum that tomorrow, I am going to throw in some dried goji berries or gei chee into Baby C’s porridge. Have you ever tried goji berries or goji juice? I had read that goji berries were recently named “superfruit of the year” by Time Magazine. Hey, if you have more…
Homemade Jam – A Labor Of Love From My Parents
Whenever we are back at my parents’ in Ipoh, my dad would never fail to whip up all my favorite dishes while my mum would bake cakes, bread, jam and much more. When we were back in Ipoh last week, my dad made some peanut butter and pineapple jam. My dad bought a large, sweet…
Alycia My Miracle Baby
When I found out that I had conceived after going through just one cycle of IUI (Intra-Uterine Insemination), I was ecstatic. At the same time, I also had a slight degree of doubt if the sperms injected into my uterus were indeed hubby’s! I know it sounds really silly but I couldn’t believe how lucky…
Sherilyn And Her Need For Independence
Sherilyn my #2 always likes to be different from the rest. Lately, most of the time she will not eat anything that I give her unless she chooses them and takes them herself. She wants to exercise her independence and freedom and does not want mummy to decide for her. She even wants to exercise…
We’re Back In KL
We reached KL at around 7ish pm yesterday. It took us more than an hour to settle down. There were just too many things to do before we could finally sit down and have dinner. Once back at our condo, my maid and I had to boil some water to drink, unpack the things, reheat…
What The Gals Have Been Up To In Ipoh… Part II
This morning my mum brought Alycia and Sherilyn for a walk by the hills. We live within meters away from some very scenic limestone hills, something which Ipoh is well-known for. The gals miss meeting up with their old friends. Guess who their old friends are? An old and huge mother goose who always chase…
What Are Your Plans This Christmas?
Christmas is just days away and the environment at shopping malls here is just so chrismassy and uplifting. Most of the shopping malls that I went to were packed with people and last minute shoppers. Christmas is a festival that I love the most as it’s a time to celebrate Father Jesus’ birth, a time…
Price To Pay For Not Listening To Mummy
Alycia has been gorging on quite a bit of junk food during the school holidays. Since her birthday about 1.5 weeks ago, she’s been eating cakes, chocolates, crackers, chips, lollipops and other junk food non stop. She would throw tantrums when her requests to eat junk food were not met. Her appetite for junk food is pretty…
Benefits Of Video Conferencing
Hubby has been sending copies of Baby C’s medical records, MCUG film and doctor’s letter to his uncle who is a surgeon in London. His uncle is seeking the opinion of his friend who is a pediatric nephrologist in London on Baby C’s kidney reflux. We have spent almost 3 months trying to get all…
Kit Kat Crazed Girls
Yesterday koong koong promised Alycia and Sherilyn that he will buy them some more Kit Kat after the gals badgered him for more when they finished the Kit Kat that koong koong bought for them last week. At Giant, Alycia chosed a big box with 3 packs of Kit Kat Bites (and comes with a…
Monkeying Baby C Again
It’s Alycia monkeying Baby C again. This morning she insisted that Baby C wore her new sunglasses that daddy bought for her. Alycia loves putting hats, caps and other ridiculous toys on Baby C just so she can have a good laugh at her baby sister. Alycia is having a swell time here in Ipoh. She…
Christmas Shopping
Alycia and Sherilyn were delighted when they arrived home last night to find presents for them under the Christmas tree. Koo Mah (hubby’s sister) had sent them presents all the way from Hong Kong. Pressies aside, there was also a huge Panettone Loison bread cake made in Italy in a lovely tin box that koo…
Baby C Can Stand And Wants To Walk At 8 Months
Just want to put this on record before I forget again. Today, Baby C stood unaided and without holding on to anything for a few seconds. She’s been cruising from one place to another and today, she wanted to let go of her hands to walk! Granny, mummy and 2 cheh chehs were cheering and…
3 Happy Little Girls
Baby C is happiest when she is placed on the floor playing with her 2 cheh chehs. These days, she could hardly stay still in her playpen for more than 15 minutes, unless she’s given something new or something ‘exciting’ to play with. Her toys no longer excite her and these days, I let her play…
I Need A Vacation Right Now
The other day, my mum asked me if I am interested to join her and my dad in a cruise. She said that it would be really enjoyable if I brought my 3 girls along with them on board a cruise. I wouldn’t mind but I am a tad worried that my girls would get sea…

Over the weekends, my brother and sil from Singapore came to visit us. We were out the whole day.
