2-6-2012

My coffee and a couple hours of "me time".
Didn't really like to do anything alone before I have kids.
Now? I really appreciate it.

2-5-2012

Daddy - the best playmate ever!
(I took the picture on the right from my living room, looking down!)

2-4-2012

Abby hasn't been really enjoying car ride, but she is definitely improving since we moved.

2-13-2012

Caught in action again, little miss mischievious!

2-2-2012

I didn't realize that there is a toy corner at our TV rack in the living room!
*Make note - need to clear this up.

2-1-2012

Abby responds very well on simple command even at this age.
This is what she will do when you tell her "Abby, sleep sleep!"
But this only lasted a split second, only for a show :)

1-31-2012

Abby is able to hold her own bottle at 10 months old. T
his is something that Charlotte won't do, even until today.

1-30-2012

Picabot at work. I'm very satistied with the result, so far :)

1-29-2012

Garden view of our condo. So beautiful and scenic,
but most of the time I only get to look from my windows.

1-28-2012

My new handy helper, I hope!

1-27-2012

My little miss mischievous. She was trying to reach out to the higher shelf, tip toeing, so cute!

1-26-2012

At 7 years old, Charlotte still hasn't master the skill of playing on the slide. It took her quite awhile to do this, and took me even longer to get this picture.

1-25-2012

This girl is always up to something. Recently she finds it fun doing this stretching exercise.

1-24-2012

Brendan, Charlotte's best cousin brother, the someone she feels 101% comfortable with (that's besides mommy, LOL).

1-23-2012

May the year of Dragon brings us Health, Happiness and Prosperity!
This is also Abby's first Chinese New Year celebration.

1-22-2012

Reunion Dinner, welcoming the year of Dragon!

1-21-2012

Abby and me are by ourselves every first half of Saturdays while daddy brings Charlotte to Yamaha lesson. This is the first time I pointed D90 on ourselves and I am very pleased with the result!
*psst, this is how I look on the weekend :(

1-20-2012

Last day at work before CNY break. The girls in the office made arrangement to show up in CheongSum but I was too lazy to put it on since I woke up at 5.30AM every morning!
BTW, I got this green top from Patrick for CNY 2006. I was too big to fit into any of my CheonSum after I delivered Charlotte back then.

1-19-2012

My team in Penang is expanding and this is the first year I get to celebrate "shou kong jiu" with my fellow coworkers after 3 years of service with this company (I was running a one-woman-show previously).

1-18-2012

I used to think siblings wearing identical clothes is kinda stupid, but I was wrong. My girls look just adorable in this Tinkerbell PJ!

1-17-2012

Told you, Abby loves grandma. She was trying to kiss grandma :)

1-16-2012

Big and many mosquito bites on her forehead and eye, poor thing.

1-15-2012

We were at a wedding reception and Abby was feeling bored and starting to make a lot of fuss. Charlotte offered to keep her little sister occupied by feeding her (LOL). It worked for quite a while!

1-14-2012

Bath time! I love her spiky hair!

1-13-2012

Charlotte, 7 years old this year. I can't remember how exactly for being a mother for that long!
*A pat on my own shoulder, good job mommy :)

1-12-2012

Abby likes to be around Charlotte. She managed to crawl her way under the seat and under the piano eventually. It was hilarious!

1-11-2012

I was staying up late tonight doing some dish washing and laundry. I saw a big bright round moon and beautiful Straits Quay from my kitchen window and I can't help not taking a picture from this view. But the moon doesn't appear as nice in this picture :(

1-10-2012

Grandma has been a great help around the house. Abby loves being around Ah Mah.

1-9-2012

A view down from our living room. Abby totally enjoying herself on the seesaw.

Charlotte misses pool time ever since we sold our studio apartment at Straits Quay. Now she looks forward to every weekend, daddy will surely bring her for a big splish and splash!

1-7-2012

Sunrise, view from our new home.
Love it!

1-6-2012

Our new rule with Charlotte, TV is only after mommy or daddy came back from work, AND only if she finished all her homework.

1-5-2012

Look at her. I just want to bite her!

1-4-2012

Attending school officially, day 1!
She says, "mommy, I have everything new. New shoes, new socks, new school uniform, new school bag!"
I was thinking, this is just the beginning of a long journey :)

I enjoy seeing Charlotte's fingers running on the keyboard. She is natural. She is preparing herself for Grade 1 ABRSM exam this year.


1-2-2012

This is Abby's first swim. She loves it!

1-1-2012


The girls are adjusting well with our new home (we moved right before Christmas).
They both have very different appearance and personality but yet, they are still sisters!
Note* the blue black on Abby's right cheek was from the first fall after crawling a few days ago.
