My little cousin's 1st month celebration

We had gone to my youngest uncle’s place for ‘the’ gathering. It was his little princess 1st month celebration.
It was the first time that I’ve seen her. She is so tiny like a little kitten. OMG!!! She is even smaller size that my little gal. She really reminded me about my little darling. Lots of fond memories just flow back.
Both the adults & kids had their fair share of fun & happiness. We left the place around 9pm and of cos, she fell asleep on the way home again… Kekeke

Migrated!!!

Here are the new addy for my blog...

Mum's place

Nothing much as today is just the usual weekly visit to my mum’s place.

Pleasant Surprise

Nope, its not flowers.
Neither is it money nor gifts.
It's a LUNCH DATE from the Hubby of mine!
Around 11 plus, I had received a call from the Hubby of mine asking if he can bring me out for lunch. Oh my goodness, did I hear wrongly? I almost fell off from my chair. Alright, that is so mean of me but its the truth. I had been working here for the past 1 year but never once did he call and asked me out for lunch. Have to mark this SPECIAL day on my calendar as WENT LUNCH WITH HUBBY... keke...
Some evil thoughts are floating in my mind liao... Does he has something up his sleeves? Or has he done something which he is not supposed to? Hmm.... I know I should not have these thoughts but they just don't go away.
Anyhow, we had an expensive lunch @ Sushi Teh and I hope he enjoy as much as I did.... *Blurp... * Oops... :p

All the bear fault

We had gone to West Mall Precious Thoughts to change for the clothes that I’ve bought for Sherry from Raffles City. At the shop, I was busy checking and thinking of what to exchange while the girl was looking around at all the bears sitting on the shelf with MIL overseeing her.
While I was at the counter making the exchange and some enquires, something caught my eye. MIL is paying for something. It was a bear that was in Sherry’s arms. I was too late to stop the transaction! I was fuming mad inside!
I asked MIL why you bought that bear for her. Her answer was that because she did not want to put it back! What an answer!!! RUBBISH!!! I trust that if you had told her nicely she will understand and just put back the bear. I had tried that for so many times when Sherry went shopping with me.
She does understand that shopping does not equate to buying thing. I was so angry and told MIL that she is really spoiling Sherry. So if she wanted the whole West Mall, will she buy that for her too?!! Yes, I know, that is too harsh and it’s a trivial matter but I do not wish that my daughter to grow up like a spoilt brat and throw tantrum when we do not want to get the stuff that she wanted!
In the night, before we went to bed, I just casually tell Hubby that sometimes he should tell his mum not to pamper Sherry in such a way. He still has the cheek to tell me, your mum also does the same. Wow, that’s it; he is adding oil to the fire man. I was damn pissed off and told him to give an example on the comment that he had just passed! His reply was how would he knows, may be she had done in his absence. I replied angrily, once a week pampering will not do more harm than everyday pampering, ok! And he will not believe if I would tell him that my mum had not been like this so far! So as usual, he just kept quiet, I carried on to say that if he does not mind his daughter to grow up and behaved like a spoilt brad then I have nothing to say! We just went to bed being angry with each other!!! ARRRRRHHHHHH!!!!
Let’s see how much Sherry played with that $20 bear!!! Still angry and upset!!!

Total Failure

I was still so hopeful while traveling home but all my hope was dashed when I saw her sleeping on the sofa with the ‘precious’ pacifier in her mouth. Wonder who the one that say she is totally rejecting the new ones?
She was happily sucking and even tells me that she has a new one and the old one spoilt already (faintz). Can still tell me that the new one has a bear on it!
Her habit is so strange; she will not take it in the night and will only love it in the day! It looks like we have to try harder to make her kick the habit.

Hopefully Sherry can do it!

This morning I then realized that one of the pacifiers was torn. She must have torn it last evening. We saw her biting very hard and even warn her that if she tore it, we are not going to buy any replacement for her. (dunno she understand or not lah). We are so happy that this could be the best time to wean her off the pacifier.
Last Friday, I intended to get another set of NUK pacifier to standby in case she has torn the old ones. But Hubby disagreed and asked me to get a set of Avent’s instead. His reasoning was that this set of teats is slightly longer than the NUK ones, and so his little one will not suck so hard. The other reason was we might be able to wean her off totally if she rejects this set. Keke… (Clever Daddy)
So this morning, put the plan into action. I washed & sterilized the new ones as per normal. I also told mil about the torn pacifier and she is more than happy to co-operate with us.
Just now, I called home, she told me that Sherry totally reject the new pacifier. She seems to be accepting the fact that she has torn the old one. Since she was out in the morning (went to the market) and was home not long, mil is still keeping her fingers cross that she may be able to wean off soon… Kekeke..

1st day back to work after super long weekend

Since today is the 1st day back to work, I was busy clearning my work and so not much of chatting with the gals. But in the morning, I was still being shoo-ed off by Jan dear. Dun mistaken, it is definitely of good cause. She shoo-ed me off to rush my work as I know they all cannot bear to see me rushing like mad and working late into the night (see, me thick skin).. keke... So quickly exit the window and get down to my work.
When come evening time, I can take my 'revenge' to shoo her back... haha...

Happy Birthday, Sister

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to u - u
Happy Birthday to you..


Enjoy your day and be wiser liao hor... older liao lor... keke

Stay @ home sunday

I had missed Kat's call as I was in the shower. So when I was out, Hubby told me that Kat said to meet her at 1st floor without mentioning it's our block and not at Tumble Tots. So when I press the B1 button in the lift, he said again, press 1 lei, Kat waiting for us there lei! Alamak, he did not say clearly, how would I know lei! keke
So we all went to Tumble Tots happily in the car, but Sherry seems to be a little disturbed when Kat mentioned the word 'school' to Shannon. She turned and looked at me. So I assured her that we are going to Tumble Tots and not to school. Hai... dunno what to do with her lei...
At the tumble tots, she did not enjoyed as much, she is like kind of sticky and refused to work on some workstation. Well, no choice lah, have to slowly build up her confidence level again.
I did my iron while Hubby went to wash his bigger baby while Sherry had her afternoon nap. In the evening, we went to the Econ shop near to Kat's place to get the Gain IQ but they do not have stock for the bigger tin, so no choice but to get the smaller one instead.
We had an early night, as Sherry did not have a very long afternoon nap.

Painful Saturday

The 3 of us had arranged to meet at Hougang Mall as we need to get the birthday cake for my younger sister. We had asked her to come along to make her choice but end up, we had bought a ice-cream cake instead.
After we got what we wanted @ the NTUC, I went to GNC to get some vitamins for myself and there is the place where I hurt my big toe! The whole piece of wood from the low showcase dropped onto my big toe... OUCH!!!!!! Out of a sudden, my whole toe went numb and I was unable to walk for that couple of seconds.
It was when I was applying oiniment onto my toe that I realised it was slightly swollen... pain pain... sob sob...
So we celebrated her birthday and this is the first time that we had to fight for the cake... kekeke... and mum said that she would like to have that for her birthday celebration too... Yummy Yummy...

Surprise Surprise

Since we had taken the day off, Careen & I had arranged to meet for breakfast at Far East Plaza so that Jan can sneak out to meet us. After that, Careen & I proceed to shop @ Taka while Jan went back to the office and wait for lunch time... keke..
I managed to get what I had wanted to get since my birthday, yes a wallet. The best part is that I only pay $0.40 for this REAL Renoma wallet. The orinigal price was $90.40 after a 20% discount and I had paid $90 by voucher and so $0.40 cash... kekeke...
After shopping around, it was about time to meet Hubby at Raffles City for tim sum. He really surprised me lei. I never would have expected that he will take half day off to meet me to eat & shop around. We shopped around and left around 4 plus. Sherry was having her nap when we are home.
We just spend the evening playing and watching the telly.... keke...

On Leave - Back to mum's place

MIL had told me to take the day off as she had some appointments fixed for the day. Since Hubby is unable to get his day off today, I went back to mum's place. I was busy chatting with the gals while Sherry had her nap.
So sorry ladies, we had to change the plans as Hubby's boss had approved his half day on Friday. And he wanted to meet me instead of going out to shop for the stuff of the car, which came as a surprise to me!
We had dinner and then went over to the 妈祖庙 to offer our prayers. That silly girl had never seen an opera show before, she was very facinated by it.. kekeke...
Hubby came to fetch us around 9 plus after his work...

Busy Wed

I've given myself the dateline to finish all the AP by today so that I can go on 2 days leave without worrying about the work piling up.
Not much of chatting with the gals, Kat is also busy with her work. Luckily I had push on the super speed button, I've complete all my payments by lunch time. So I can rest & relax for the next few hours.
We had arranged for a meet up on Friday, but... but.. my Hubby surprised me! He was supposed to take leave on Thurs to accompany the both of us and Friday will be a day for myself. But his boss did not approval his Thurs leave and asked him to go on Friday half day instead and he agreed! So there goes our gathering. So sorry ladies, I did not want it this way but no choice. I cannot reject him can I, cos this is the first time (after Sherry is born) that he asked me out for couple time. I know you gals will understand, right. But of cos I still feel very bad for cancelling the appt. Next month lah, we'll plan for next month (and not to plan ahead, I remember that).
I've arranged to meet Kat early but because of my leave application that had gone missing that delayed me back in the office. So only managed to meet her around 630pm. As usual, we yakked all the way home and then parted at the bus stop as I'm going into the supermarket.
To my surprised, MIL was planning to go out (but she did not tell me), so had a quick shower so that she can leave the house early and then had my dinner in front of the TV to accompany that little girl. At around 9pm, I told her to keep all her toys as we are getting ready to go to bed. Both of us were asleep even before Hubby was home... La la land...

Late Tuesday

It's a normal Tuesday in the office, nothing much & did not even chat much with the gals.
Today will have to leave on the dot to go for my long overdue facial. I've already changed about 4 times for this particular appt. But anyhow, I've made it today.
As usual, I'm almost late for my appt. Quickly settle down and start my relaxing evening. In the midst of the cleaning, I mentioned that I would like to try the waxing of the underarms. Kekeke... I'm just being lazy and tired of removing them so often. Of cos it's also becos I've more cash to spend this month, so the thought of wasting $$ is there.
Anyhow, I have done it! It's not so painful as I thought it will be. The pain is still bearable. (hmm, what will be more painful than the 5 months of contractions plus the weekly jab during my pregnancy?)
So after the appt, went to the supermarket to get some ham for breakfast and also some other groceries. By then, it was already 815pm but Hubby is not leaving the office by 9pm so he asked me go back home on my own. keke... I'm just lazy so I took a cab back instead of the train. I had convinced myself that it will shorter the travelling time so that I can spend more time with Sherry before she goes to bed. (me & my excuses)... keke...

Quiet Monday

This morning, I just arrived into my office, my phone rings. Its Jan she is not well and so are the Rays. But she did send them to school, so that she can have some rest. The next moment, my mobile beeped. Its Careen she is also not working cos she is unwell too. So down 2 and left Kat & me.
We did not chat much, guess we are both busy and quickly settle most of my work so that I can leave early to meet Kat and go back together.
But that idiot sales manager wanted me to issue an invoice for the training conducted tomorrow, so no choice right, have to do for him lor. So still meet Kat @ 630pm instead.
In the evening, my hubby surprised me again. He said that he'll be home for dinner as he is tired and don't feel like working late this evening. keke. But I still did not wait for him to have dinner cos I wanted to have more time to play with Sherry... hee hee..
Tonight is another early night, by 1030pm we are already in bed.

Stay @ home Sunday too

As usual, we went to the Tumble Tots for our weekly lesson. Kat had brought Shannon there for her trial lessons with Serene too. The next moment I turn, I saw her ah lao too… keke… But I was concentrating more on Sherry so we did not chat much.
We parted after the lesson had ended. We had to go back home quickly as I’ve left the stove on with the smallest fire to cook the stock for Sherry’s porridge. So we rush back home to check that out.
After lunch, we went to change the bed sheets in Sherry’s room and that girl is more that happy to help, of cos it’s 越帮越忙. So we decided to put her into the playpen, turn on the TV and keep her busy there. But the next moment we went to peep at her, she is already in La La Land.
After all the changing, Hubby proceed to vacuum the rooms but not the living room as Sherry was still having her nap. Once he is done with that, he went down to wash his car, while I stayed home to iron my clothes.
There was loud thunder again while I was preparing to cook dinner. This time, I’m unable to hug my girl like yesterday, she can n told me she is scared. So I told her, Sherry, you scared then you hold on to mummy’s leg lah, then u not scared liao. She really hugged so tightly like a kola bear when there’s loud thunder again. So cute lei, I told my mum about Sherry and she just say, like mummy like daughter… kekek.. yes, I’m also afraid of the thunder when I was a little girl.
By the time, Hubby came back, Sherry was having her milk feed in the kitchen. He went to continue with his vacuuming in the living room and Sherry went to follow him around. After all these, he still come & help to cook… so sweet of him hor. So I only need to fry the cod fish and we can settle for dinner in no time.
After dinner, we just laze around in the living room watching tv and have some fruits, soon its bed time for Sherry.. kkeek…

Stay @ home Saturday

Nothing much happened except that we had to cancel the plans of going to the Waterloo Street to get some clothes for Sherry as FIL had slept till 4pm! And it was also pouring so heavily with super duper loud thunder.
Sherry was so scared of the thunder that she hugged me so tightly until the both of us fell asleep on the sofa. We had also planned to go to the Causeway Point Mothercare to get the sleeping suit for Sherry but she was having her nap.
It was already almost 5pm when I was woke up. Quickly went to prepare to cook dinner, and with Hubby’s help, dinner was done in no time.
Finally, she woke up from her nap at around 7pm, we let her settled down before feeding her rice. After our dinner, we had decided to pop by Causeway point. Quickly get ready and off we went.
It was so crowded and lots of kiddy rides, so went to Mothercare and found what we wanted. Although, its pretty pricy but I think MIL will also support me to get them. They come in 3 in a pack and they cost $57 per pack. The best thing is that they have sizes up till 36 months! Can u imagine, 36 months! Yippie!!! I’ve already decided to get that for Sherry and immediately went round to look for the prettiest designs, bought 2 packs from the rack and also reserved 1 pack from the warehouse. Keke… So in total, I’ve just spent $104 in the next second.
Since we are there, went into Kiddy Palace to see if there are any nice shoes for her but none of them caught my eye. So we decided to go back instead.
We have an early night despite Sherry had her nap till 7pm. Keke..

Good Friday = Mum's palce

Today is a PH, MIL had left for her short trip to the Malaysia, and will only be back on Sunday night. Hubby was supposed to send her to the pick up location @ AMK MRT but FIL offered to send her. Keke… so nice of him hor.
We had already make plans to be going back to mum’s place for dinner so I informed FIL that I’ll be only cooking white porridge and he is fine with it.
Sherry stayed at home with Daddy while I went to the market to get some vegetables cos I might not be able to go on Saturday. After all the marketing, came back to prepare the stock for Sherry’s porridge.
She fell asleep after lunch and only woke up around 4 plus. Quickly get ready and we managed to leave the house around 5 plus. Mum was still cooking when we reached home. Dad had also woke up from his nap to wait for his little grand-dotter.
After Sherry had her dinner with the daddies and then later will be the mummies turn to have ours. Sherry had been taking the coins in n out of the kitchen to show that she is ready & waiting for her grand-pa to bring her down for the kiddy rides.
I was busy doing the e-filing of the income tax while the 2 old folks spend time playing with that little girl. That was also the time when I realized that my FC had rewarded me with the 1 month bonus… $$ sitting in my account… keke..
After awhile, we left around 9 plus as tomorrow is Hubby’s working Saturday.

WONDERFUL NEWS FOR THE WEEK!!!!

I’ve got my bonus! YES, BONUS!!!
It had been like 4 years ago since I took my bonus. Not to mentioned that it had been split into 3 months for that 1 month’s pay, yes it had been that miserable for me. The 2 years in that company had been my worst working life ever! Ok, so much of history, now back to my BONUS.
Firstly, my FC came to tell me he will be awarding me with bonus, I almost fainted in his office. Keke… (pardon me to be so夸张) I was so surprised & just looked at him with my biggest smile. He said that he will reward me cos he appreciate all my efforts for the past 1 year.
Secondly, he said that he will also bring up my confirmation to a permanent position instead being a contract. I’m flying into heaven again. What wonderful boss I have!! Keke
He did not mention the amount that he will be rewarding me but I’m only expecting like a couple of hundreds, BUT BUT he gave me 1 month! YES, 1 full month of bonus. This is like drop from the sky. I was so happy!
But Hubby said that I behaved like my FC had just given me a few thousands of dollars. He just simply does not understand my happiness. I’m happy cos I feel that I’m being appreciated by my boss, its not the monetary gains that I’m going for. Do u gals understand, what I’m trying to say?
Anyhow, MIL & my parents are all happy for me & I know u gals are also happy for me… Thanks.. kekeke

Almost back to the normal week – 10 to 13 Apr

I could relax a little bit more this week since I’m done with the close, and now it’s my FIN Manager’s job to finalize it. The one thing that I’m busy with this week is all the cheques to be issued, cos my MD will be traveling again which means there will be shortage of signature again.
I had to rush again cos this is another short working week as Friday is a PH so not much of chatting again…

3rd busy work week – 3 to 7 Apr

This is already my 3rd busy week lei… I’m so tired of working & rushing all the work. I’m now feeling so physical drained, but what to do, I’ve got no choice, we are now rushing for the 1st quarter close. Just hope that all these will pass quickly....Khakis sorry unable to caught up with u gals… but I know u gals do understand… keke..

Excursion to warehouse

KC Dat had given us today to go n pack our archive documents into their boxes for them to keep into our crate. I had arranged with June to meet her there instead of coming into the office first.
I was there slightly earlier than 10am so I start the ball rolling hoping to complete all these by noon. Shortly, June arrived, since the 2 uncles refused us to help them to move the documents into the boxes, we could only do the labeling. But when it comes to the financial records, I went to pack it myself cos I would be able to pack them in accordance to what was required.
We managed to finish packing by 1130pm and we hopped into the cab and off to the office we went. Quickly settled down and work hard and fast again cos it’s almost my dateline.
