Lunch with Music

Played masak masak with me while I was cutting up the ingredients for tomorrow's dessert.

You "cooked up" my pizza and served it with my order of orange juice. And to top it up, my meal was served with music accompaniment:

Tricky Mind

Was wondering why ypur wallet was so bulky. Opened it to find that you had hidden your Pokemon erasers inside. You wanted to bring to school to play with although school does not allow you to bring them to school. So you hid it in your wallet to avoid being detected and confiscated by the school prefects.

Kakak is Back

Kakak had goneback to Indonesia for 5 weeks. During that time, we ate out most days. Ah Ma only cooked on days when Ko-ko had tuition and sometimes on weekends.

When Kakak came back, you were so happy. I heard you keep telling her "I'm so happy you are back" and hugging her legs. Not too sure if she understood what you said, but I'm sure she misses you too.

As for Evan, I think you'd also miss her. Reason is that you'll no longer need to wash your shoes now that she's back. And I'd say she does a very good job washing your shoes as compared to what you have done *wink*. But I'm glad that you both helped out in your little ways while she was away. And daddy also took over my tasks (taking care of the 2 of you) while I had to do more of the house work. 

According to Evan...

.. mummy's new job is "cockroach remover".

Yup.. new job at home. Every morning we'll find one (or more) cockroaches in your bathroom. And as you do your business, you'll be calling out to me to tell me that there is one cockroach to pick up. Either under the cabinets or the bathroom door or in plain view.

And when I pick them up, you'll make sure that you stay WAAAYYY out of the way.

When asked why is it that I have to remove the cockroach you will respond "because it's your job what...". Sigh.. nice new job. 

Baby Claire

*This is Baby Claire which was the birthday present from Ee-ee and Teo-teo. You really adore her:

This is our conversation about Baby Claire:

Evan: Mummy.. today Evelyn stripped her doll. I saw her bum bum. And she did not want to put back on her clothes!!!

Mummy: Aiyoooo...

Mummy: Evelyn, why did you remove Baby Claire's clothes?

Evelyn: She wanted to pom pom what...

Mummy: But after pom pom, why didn't you put her clothes back on? She will get sick if she's naked, you know?

*thinks for a while... 

Evelyn: She's only a toy you know.. she's not real

Mummy:...... *too stunned to reply

Evelyn - 1, Mummy - 0

Evelyn's Birthday Party in School

Such a lucky coincidence for Ko-ko that he had the day off as school was having Mid-Autumn Festival that evening. So he got to attend the school party with us (and enjoy your yummy cake).

We dropped you at school and went back to have breakfast and to eat breakfast and pick up Ko-ko. 

Here are your party packs: Minnie for the girls and Mickey for the boys

All loaded into the car boot

Here are the kids all excited and clamouring around the cake:

To my surprise a large portion of the cake was finished by the kids in your class. Party packs were left to be distributed by Mrs. Teoh before the kids went home. 

After that Mrs. Teoh let you go home with us. 

Happy 4th Birthday, Evelyn

Happy Birthday to our little princess. 

Thank you for your:

*laughter

*sleep talking

*jokes

*hugs

and so many other funny and interesting things as you light up our lives.

We love you to the moon and back.

*kiss*kiss* 

Evelyn's Frozen Party

Waaaay before your birthday arrived, you had already told me what cakes you wanted: both for school (Minnie) and at home (Frozen). So that was the theme we used for this year's 4th birthday party. As Kakak was in Indonesia on holiday, we planned to buy most of the food (from Naughty Nuri's and roast chicken from Song River). Only 1 dish (Aglio Olio) was cooked by daddy. 

Here's the party pack. You had picked the contents of the party pack when we went to Giant to buy the ingredients for the pasta.

Grampy wasn't feeling well on that day, but he made it to the party nonetheless. Here are you and Audrey posing with Nanna and Grampy:

And another important guest was your Teo-teo who shares the same birth date as you: 

I think you are saying that you are as tall as he is.

Here you are posing with the cake. It was an adorable Olaf with Frozen themed candles which we had found when we were shopping in Queensbay on Thursday. There was Anna, Elsa, Olaf and also one large one with the words "Happy Birthday":

Posing with Ko-ko and the rest of your cousins. Abigail was not in the picture as she was not feeling well that day. She only got up to play in the last 30 minutes after she was given Paracetamol. 

And.. our family portrait:

It was a fun birthday. These are pictures from Ee-ee's phone. I'll try to upload more pictures from daddy's camera.. I'm sure you had a wonderful birthday celebration this year. *kisses*

Ice Cream Day

Happiness... just from simple ice cream from McDonald's

All Exhausted

All exhausted after a long day. Starting the day with fever, you were still your usual cheerful self and had to wake up early this morning to prepare for your school annual concert.
Afternoon nap was only for a shirt while and so by 10pm you willingly told me that you were sleepy.
And less than 15 minutes, here you are... fast asleep

Lunch at Home

Today we both decided to be lazy and stay at home to rest. So we had instant noodles for lunch with Pepsi. Here are our smiling faces as we enjoy lunch.

Evelyn Cleaning Up

Since Kakak is off on holiday we've all got to help out. Here are some of the tines you have helped me. Good job, little girl

Merdeka Day Celebration

You told me on Wednesday that you had to wear your Indian costume to school on Friday for the "Malaysia flag day". (Merdeka celebration)
Yesterday night when I was getting your costume, daddy asked you why you are wearing "In du ren" clothes when you are "Hwa ren". You stopped to think for a while and replied "Mrs. Teoh asked me to wrar In Du ren". Oops... can't fight with that *grin*

Paint a Rainbow

Had a little craft time with you before heading over to Nanna's for Chor Kong's funeral.

Birthday for Evelyn Bear

On Thursday, you decided that it was your pink bear-bear's (named Evelyn) birthday.  You bugged me to buy her a cake.
Yesterday at Queensbay , we were supposed to buy a cake but in the end were too tired to search.
So today after lunch we stopped by Mon Delice to order the flavour of your cake and to pick up a cake for Evelyn Bear.
So... ta-da... another birthday celebration:

Chocolate Fondue Ice Cream

Only 4 of us went to Queensbay for lunch yesterday as Ah Ma was still not feeling well and Ah Kong said he did not have any appetite. 

After a bit of shoppibg we headed to Haagen Dazs for the long promised ice-cream. 

Ko-ko laughed at you for having a dirty face:

Not realising he himself has a dirty face too:

Evelyn's Tiara

Mummy helped me to pick this when we went to Toy's R Us. My lucky Ko-ko got to pick a new toy gun.
Do you like my new ti-ah-rah? It has a light which blinks. It also comes with a amulet like my favourite Princess Sofia and also earrings. I don't need to have hiles in my ears like mummy. They can clip on my ears. It's abit painful when I put them on.  But don't you think I look so beautiful?

Vomit Virus

Ah Ma had been telling us about children on other classes who were sick but none had been sick in your class. But on last Thursday, your friend Claire vomitted in school. That evening itsslf you caught the bug. *sigh*
Daddy and I were working late and Ah Ma called yo say that you have vomitted several times. By the time we reached home, you were sleeping and you had already vomitted 6 times in the past hour. Quickly packed a bag in case you had to be admitted (you could not even keep down water) and headed to the hospital.
It was a rather long wait and finally we got to see Dr. Mary and you were given suppository to stop the vomitting. And also prescribed potato chips as medicine. Yup... that was to return the salt to your body and also tasted better than the ORS.
You ate the chips feeling a little sad as we ate McDonald's  (our very late dinner). But you were still so exhausted you fell asleep quickly after that.
You missed school the next day and took all the medicine for the next few days and seem to be better. We spent the weekend in Ipoh and poor you could not have your fruits, dairy products or anything sweet. Sunday morning you had diarrhea a couple of times but other than that you were fine.
Last night, you asked me "mummy, can I have milk tomorrow?". Caught me by surprise as you never liked to drink much milk, unlike your ko-ko.
Looks like you are back to normal, thank goodness. What a scary experience.

Minion

Once daddy put it on for you, your remarked "Look like Minion". Totally agree with you.

Banana Split

Yesterday mummy gave use ice-cream for dessert. Sshh... don't tell daddy. She said that she will give me if I sat quietly and finished all my rice.
So Ko-ko and I got THREE flavours of ice-cream and sprinkles and banana. Yummy...  but in the end mummy ate up the banana in my bowl. I just wanted it because Ko-ko had it.
