Happy CNY 2009- 4th day, Hung's farewell

Kee Hung-daddy's bro..came back from Australia..this year he helped out a lot in the kitchen...most dishes were contributed by him,..and all the washing hehehe..

Kaylen dressed in t-shirt and jeans...It's 6-12month clothes from FOX, and she not even 5 mth already can wear with tight fitting..*mummy headache* Jared 6-12mth clothes from FOX can wear til 2 yr old..

Happy CNY 2009!

Every year if CNY celebrates with Daddy's family, we would wake up to have mee suah with egg..Then bath, and change to new clothes..and followed by a series of effort trying to take as many nice pics at home as possible hehe..



Even without the kids, taking pics on 1st day of CNY is their culture..

This year as Jared grown bigger it's so hard to take pic with him...He wanted to be the one take pic for us instead...to be the one press the camera button when we set up tripod..and want to run like us after press timer...

He has even grown smarter to estimate when the camera is gonna take the pic, then at the last second he would turn away!!..

As for Kaylen, she's like the gem of the family, each day change so many outfit..and everyone come and complement how cute she is..hehe..

The most strange thing is in a pic, if Kaylen is ready..Jared sure not ready...it's hard to take the pic of both them ready and nice..


This year, Jared and daddy wear the same red Polo ralph polo...The clothes were bought Sept06...2yr+ ago when daddy go US..finally the could wear the same thing on CNY!..But just before wearing we realised it's different red! hehe..

See jared so nice in the pic, but Kaylen was crying...

2nd day of CNY..jared fall sick, had stomach pain and fever..so he wasn't in mood to do anything..
Kaylen's ah mah, tie her hair up so nicely and so neat..hehe

Happy CNY 2009- Reunion Lunch

We had the reunion lunch at Sembawang around 3pm...This year we contributed 3 dish...but only 1 dish everyone like..that's the curry made from premix :( Jingdu pork rib, over cook so the meat is quite tough, though the sauce is nice..for this dish I research so long yet turn out failure..kek sim

Kaylen Today with Hair clip

4mth 2 wk, look so chubby..she's only6.8kg when do check up at 4 month..and drink only 3oz of milk 3 hourly..But she is already doing better than Jared who drank only 2oz all the way till 6-7mth

My new hair cut for the new year

I couldn't even remember when was the last time I cut short my hair, probaly more than 10 years ago..This is not very short, but short enough for daddy ...hehe..

Jared 1st trip to genting -Recalled

Jared 1st trip to genting was during his 6mth old (May 2006)..We did it with bus...This round, Kaylen 3.5mth old we already managed to go Genting..not bad yeah!...Driving definitely much more comfortable than car..don't need to worry if the kids disturb anyone, and make stop as and when we like..

See the pic, Jared has grown so much since then.

Jared's Favourite ride @ Genting

Road trip to Genting: 20-22 Dec, Day 3

Again, after breakfast at hotel, we went to take the cable car.. By today, kaylen has used up all her extra clothes including long sleeve jacket, long pants..by poo overflow, 1 vomit...so she had to wear pyjama when we go out..hehe..

After cable car, we checked out and get ready for lunch at Mushroom farm...But daddy keyed in the mushroom restrautrant instead on his GPS so we ended arriving at pan4 shan1...Then daddy insisted drive up again all the way back to hotel, and start the search of mushroom farm again!!!...

Ok, the trip was kinda worth while..cos at least the food is not bad, though pricey ...

Their signature fish, we got the small one...yet cause RM40....then again, it taste good..

After lunch, Jared played at the front area...

We left mushroom farm at 2pm...arriving JB at 6pm..slight jam...but still we got back home at 7pm+ ...Not bad a trip...

Road trip to Genting 20-22 Dec: Day 2

We bought the Indoor and outdoor pass together, and started the day with buffet breakfast at hotel and after that chiong to the outdoor park. Not many ppl in the park when we arrived, since it was quite early..

We took soo many rides, since Jared don't mind queueing and wait for the rides

To take this pic, daddy stop the car, and behind all cars accident..hehe

We stayed at first world hotel, it's such a big hotel that check in also need to take queue no. and wait for 2hr.

Jared's fav car ride, took 3x ....don't mind queueing on his own...
During his 3rd ride, the staff arrange a gal to sit with him..Guess what? Jared got so angry and begin to hit her on her face and hand...!! He ask her.. You want to sit my car?..

After dinner, we transfer illegally the hand band to our parents to continue bring Jared for the rides...hehe...We took Kaylen back to hotel to rest..

It's really more tired bringing 2 kids along, so tired and busy that we didn't get to enter the casino at all. But we did manage to take quite a lot of rides..and Jared enjoyed the theme absolutely!

Swimming

It has been a while that we managed to go swimming...daddy not in town + bad weather+ jared sleep timing ...Finally we managed to go there for the weekend.Jared still scared of the water initially..after a while he started to have fun..But he's too tall for the baby pool, so he could easily walk ...and refuse to learn kicking...hee



jared looks real good in this swim suit isn't it? as if he was posting for me..Nah..he was trying to run away..



Resting with daddy..



All wet, picking up his ball

Happy 4th Month- 开斋了!

- The eating drumstick ritual..fed by my mum and pic taken by her as well.

She look like crying, but mum say she happy to lick it, and finally the chicken drumstick was eaten by Jared..hehe..

Whole mouth so oily...eeee

Daddy and Kaylen

Update on Kaylen
- Slept through the night since she turned 3mth old (Biggest and greatest achievement, gal!!!)
- Though I still dun get to sleep through the night, I still appreaciate her effort. I would set the alarm clock at 3am to wake up to pump, ONz mummy..hehee..
- Downgrade to 1 small tin of 400g Similac.
-In day time, consume up to 15oz of breastmilk when I'm at work. At night take about 2oz of formula daily.
-Can start to laugh, but doesn't sound good, like crying..sometimes frighten me..hehe..
-Take pacifier occasionally to help to sleep
-Need to wear 6 mth old clothes..(aiyo!..too fat)
-No one would say she small size lor...We have 3 baby born around the same time in the neighbourhood..Aug 24(JianMing's cousin), Sept6(Kaylen), Sept 8 (Shao qi's sister)...guess what? Kaylen is the biggest size baby of all at the moment..Wowow...
-Still drink about 3oz of milk, but around 4pm can drink up to 4oz now..
-I don't intend to start her on solid till 6month old, cos cannot imagine preparing puree/porridge for both kids..and feeding both kids..since Jared still not eating on his own yet.

Kaylen Turning 4mth tomorrow

Neck is almost there...hair still alot, and no sign of dropping yet...

Road trip to Genting- 20-22 Dec 08: Day 1 Passby Melaka

We finally got the courage to do a road trip to Malaysia..Even though we are all m'sian, we simply worries of the safety and road condition there...This round after checking with friend (Lisa) and colleages, and with the help of the ingenieus GPS..daddy finally agreed to take us to Genting..

We started the journey at 5.30am for fear the custom jams, carry the kids from bed off we started the journey. First stop was to Melaka, along the road, the scenary was not bad too.

We arrived at Melaka at only 8.30am in the morning but to my surprise I couldn't find any place for breakfast, out of desperate, we called ah yi...So yi zhang brought us to have dim sum..After that we went to their place to bath Kaylen, cos she pooed to almost whole body..hehe

They were in josstick bussiness...

Jared looking at the joss stick, look so beautiful with the color contrast..

In just 2hr after dim sum breakfast, we head off to have the infamous chicken rice...Its getting so famous that need to queue for tables...Used to think it taste really good when we had it long ago, but this round we think it was so-so only..

Jared having his share

After lunch, we went to red house there to see see look look. My dad with Jared..

Preparing Jared for Dental Visit

We bought him a Dr Seuss's The tooth book, read to him very often till he could memorise the whole book...In the book it's share about milk teeth, permanent teeth...and finally tell him

Don't bite the dentist, cos he's your teeth best friend..

So after a long time of reading the book, he knew what to expect at the clinic. We are so lucky to get a dentist who's good at kids..He showed him the drill thingee, and scraper and let him feel it with his hand.

After coming back from the dentist visit, Jared become more willing to brush his teeth, the moment he had something sweet he will ask for brush. Hope this continues..and our biggest prob is never clean his teeth after milk at night..Really have to become more hardworking...

Special Days to remember
