What's happening lately...?

Wow! I've absent myself for almost 2 months. Even though I am a full time house wife now but life is still as busy as usual and further more I'm 5.5 months pregnant now, so aside from the house work and taking care of my girl, I spent most of my time sleeping.

Here are some updates from me for the past 2 months.

12 Nov to 16 Nov 09 - Hubby and I brought our little girl, together with his parents and eldest sister's family to Bangkok and Pattaya. It was never easy to bring our girl along but we did enjoy ourselves very much there.





20 Dec 09 - We celebrated my eldest sister-in-law's birthday at Portuguese Settlement and took the chance to have a look at their christmas decoration. My little girl was so excited to see the lightings, santa clause, decors and trees... The atmosphere was just really wonderful...





24 Dec 09 - Christmas Eve! We went out together with my hubby's friends to karaoke and dinner. I've not been to karaoke since my first pregnancy and this was also Joeynn's first time to a karaoke.

25 Dec 09 - It's Christmas Day! Every year this time, a neighbour from my mum-in-law's housing area will invite us to her house for Christmas Party. Joeynn got a bag of Hello Kitty marshmallows but too bad I don't allow my kid to eat any sweets or candies at her age right now. After that, we headed to Station One cafe with hubby's old time friend, sitting down there listening to songs, chit chatting and surfing the net. Poor Joeynn was quite boring coz she got nothing to do there...

Joeynn's Chinese Birthday

31 October 2009 (Saturday) was Joeynn's Chinese birthday. Hubby and I brought her to EQ Hotel for a nice seafood buffet dinner. The food were delicious and we stayed there for about 2.5 hours enjoying our nice dinner and nice songs sang by a group of Eurasian band. I dedicated a birthday song to the birthday girl and the hotel staff gave her a complimentary birthday cake. She was so happy that there were people singing birthday song for her, and most importantly, she got to blow the candle and cut the cake again.

Below are some pictures to share...

Joeynn's English Birthday

24 October 2009 (Saturday) was my little princess English birthday, we had a buffet party for her at my in-law's house and we only invited a few close relative members to attend her party. Actually my initial plan was to have a Princess Party for my little girl but as I said there were too many things happened lately so the plan was cancelled.

I ordered for her a Princess Rapunzel birthday cake and hubby bought for her a big Barney soft toy. She received some red packets and birthday presents from all the uncles and aunties, gong gong and pho pho on that day.

Below are some photos to share...

Busy month - October 2009

So sorry for not updating my blog for such a long time as there were too many things happened in the month of October.

First of all, I've resigned from my job on 22 October 2009, Thursday (official last day was on 25 October 2009, Sunday) from a well established telco company due to some personal reasons. Although my boss and GM asked me to consider staying but I've made up my mind to quit due to some really important reasons. So right now, I'm a full time house wife taking care of my little princess.

Time passed very fast and it's really exhausted to take care of a toddler, she is forever energetic, always tell me:" Mummy, I'm hungry..." even though you know that her stomach already very full. Yes, my daughter she can't stop eating, or shall I rephrase - she must always have something in her mouth - either food or her pacifier.

You see, life is still as busy as it is eventhough I'm not working right now...

A Special Day To Remember

4th September 2009 (Friday) was a very special day to me and my family. It's a day to remember and to welcome a special someone.. ^o^

Great Grandmother's Birthday

Last Saturday (8 Aug 09) was Joeynn's great grandmother's birthday. My hubby's family and relatives gather around in a restaurant in Melaka Raya area to celebrate her birthday.

Joeynn was quite excited to see the birthday cake but too bad that she was having fever and can't really enjoy much on the food.

Cup Cakes

Last Saturday after brunch (breakfast cum lunch), I brought my little angel with me to my mum’s house as I have a mission to accomplish, that is to make CUP CAKES! My hubby was busy with errands so he did not follow us.

This is my first time making cup cakes and the reason why I want to make cup cakes is because of my darling’s birthday is coming soon in October. I am going to throw her a birthday party, so I’m thinking to order some cup cakes as well but I don’t think Malacca is selling and if I really want to order, that means I have to order from KL and get my brother-in-law who’s working there to collect for me. So…. to make things easy, my mind suddenly pop up a brilliant idea – that is to make the cup cakes myself!!

With all the ingredients that I bought on Friday, we happily headed to my mum’s house. My little angel was so happy as she knew that she’ll soon be seeing her grandparents, uncles, yee yee and cousins Qian Qian and Shan Shan whom she has not seen for weeks.

When we reached grandma’s place, cousins Qian Qian and Shan Shan weren’t around. So, my eldest brother helped to take care of my little girl and without any further delay, my mum and I quickly started our mission.

The progress was rather smooth at first but when it came to the baking part, my mum’s antique oven some how didn’t really work. We started around 3pm in the afternoon and only manage to finish the whole thing at around 8pm, my goodness!!

Even though the process took very long hours due to my mum’s antique oven, but I still manage to make my very own cup cakes. So my conclusion is, just spend the money and get the job well done by the expert!!

I actually made more than these but some already gave to my family members, so no chance to take pictures.

I had extra icing so I bought this sponge cake from bakery and add on the topping
