It is always good to prepare umbrella in advance in case of rainy days. I bought life insurance the moment I got my first job as for extra protection or coverage for myself. Hubby got his too, when he got his first pay. Now that we have 3 kids, and with the rising cost of medical this days, anyone would surely think it is wise to get insurance, especially medical ones, as extra coverage. If you are searching for some good plans for your child and family, you would wanna check out with the Blue Cross North Carolina on their coverage and savings option.


It would be the last of our celebration this weekend. With some friends together, we will be going to a picnic at one of the major park in KL to celebrate the birthday of our kids together. I think it is going to be a fun one, for everyone as there is nothing much to prepare up front. Meanwhile some mothers will also prepare some party packs for little ones and also mummies. I know this picnic is going to be a great bloggers meet up for me and I am dying to meet some mothers I know over online for years, and some of my blog readers. I am going to get my camera ready plus my new micro sd so that more photos can be taken and loaded on this coming picnic.


Am looking forward to this Sunday for our mass birthday picnic gathering at TTDI.

As there will be more than 20 families attending this great event, each of us shall only bring:
* ONLY own food and drinks to prevent wastage at the end of the day
* own cutlery and food container
* bucket, soap bubbles or your own sandpit kit (to play water by the stream)
* additional clothes for the kids to change
* a bottle of clean water to rinse your kids as the toilet is situated too far away at the entrance

I still have not prepare the picnic mat for the 5 of us. How nice if we could bring some a portable outdoor dining sets to place the food instead of having them all on the floor.


Although busy, it was a fun month. I baked Tomica little cookies as party favors for the kids. Tedious job to do as they are really tiny. Stamping the mould on the shaped cookies really testing our patience. Luckily QQ could help and with maid’s help, all little cars and van was neatly packed and given out.

Hubby was on leave so we went back to Melaka a day earlier. Went to the famous Ikan Bakar at Muara Sg.Duyong on Friday night. Although the place is fully booked and ambience is good, we were quite dissappointed as the food does not taste as good as the old stall in Serkam. With a eating habit like mine, I know there is surely no way to slim down unless I take the best diet pills in town.


Durian in my hometown is dirt cheap. It only cost Rm1 (for smaller fruits) and RM2 (bigger size fruits) per kg. During the weekend, hubby bought 2 big bags and we ate most of them. As there was quite a lot, we could not finish the remaining. So mum store them into box and place them in fridge. I even brought back one box and just finished them all this morning.

Now I am again smelling like a durian and I think I have gained more weight this morning. I think I am gonna pop in some atro-phex again if my weight shoot up after this durian season.


On Saturday night, we had a small catering at my mum’s place to celebrate the boys’ birthday just to accomodate relatives from my father and mother side. It was a great reunion for the family members. We only need to borrow some discount furniture from my grandma’s place so that there is enough seat for everyone at the car porch.

Time flies and cousins that I played with during my younger days are all mother and father now. It was really a great reunion after all :)


There are more than 100 things to do at this very moment, and I still can think of something new, that is to get myself a DSLR?

Just also received some shoots from TwoPixel this morning. See rest of the pics at the Boys Photography @ 10m (Part2). This is where the motivation on photography comes. Just cannot resists missing the kids moments when they are younger, right?

I might need to get one, sooner or later. Perhaps I will just need to read out more before spending more money again, especially if I need added accessories like the compact flash for my camera.


Wouldn’t it be great to store something like these in our purse?

De bumbo Boys on my credit card….

or QQ during her happy moment….

Yes, these are REAL You:nique credit cards offered by Alliance Bank Malaysia. Instead of placing those boring plain looking credit cards, we can now have our favorite photo on our credit cards. I just love the idea of having a card like this so I can easily take them out and flaunt it whenever anyone asks about my kids. Perfect all parents who want to show off their kids like me, or even something that you have proudly produced in your kitchen.

Besides having a personalized picture, there are also great features to enjoy, ranging from great rebates, low monthly interest rates or 2x points rewards, which can be accumulated. Great if you plan to do debt transfer or debt consolidation on your card.


A friend’s baby just had a surgery and went through very tough road of recovery.

I know it is difficult not to imagine the baby’s current condition right now if you have seen the picture of the baby. But instead of focusing the tired and weak baby, we could use the Law of Attraction to “VISUALISE” the happy and healthy Baby for a faster healing. I believe we can all send positive vibes and energy to the baby for a quick recovery and come back home again soon.

Definitely not easy when expensive like that is not covered by insurance. Therefore it is important to get insurance quotes for medical, if you know you could not afford the medical bills today.


She said this to me lying on her bed last night while I was whispering the boys’ name, patting them to sleep. Sad words, isn’t it?

Am I really neglecting my kids? Am I taking on too much time online, with Mama Patch, activities I love like baking, and such? Am actually trying to slim myself by engaging in more activities, so that I do not need to resort to the weight loss pills for more weight loss.

She loves snuggle close to me, asking me to hug her when I am hugging the boys, one in each hand, each night on bed. The boys are tough to handle, as they need to be bf to sleep, on arms. I wish I could have another hand for her, but most of the time she just lie there on her bed, drifting herself to sleep. When the boys are knocked out, she sleeps too.
