A summarised entry

I am guilty of this.. have not been blogging for the past dunno how many months, since I lost some 20 over entries...

Kids kids... they grow up too fast.. Dylan is already a year old and Rachel is three years old. We celebrated Rachel's third birthday in June. I decided to hold a bbq this time round instead and spend the whole day preparing chicken wings, curry vegetables, potato salad, sangria etc etc.. it was quite a lot of fun but things would have gone better if there were more helping hands.. It was definitely not easy with a koala baby! Rachel had quite a lot of fun that she repeatedly request for bbqs.. hee hee...

For Dylan's birthday which just past, we had a simple dinner with my mum and dad at tung loks..Decided not to have a cake as miL is a firm believer that one should not celebrate birthdays twice. It was quite funny when wai po thank Dylan for the birthday treat! We also held a little birthday party for Dylan on 7 September 2009. I prepared nuggets, chicken drumlets, drinks, french bean salad, while my MIL prepared fried bee hoon and chicken.. it was a simple yet cosy party with the kids having fun with the Wii..

Dylan can already crawl very fast, have six teeth, can call Ah ma very accurately, calls mummy Ah mum, calls papa, able to climb down the bed... is very affectionate, especially towards mummy! Sadly tonight is the first night that my boy will not be sleeping beside me (no nursing tonight as well) as I have to stay over for work.. sniff sniff..

Rachel is totally diaper free for about a month now! Mummy is so proud of you Rachel! She is also starting to dislike her I can read classes.. I manage to find out that she was scolded by Teacher Veron for runnng around in class.. now she tells me that she wants to go for music class instead.. I also notice that she has a gift for drawing.. she can draw faces pretty well.. :)

We also just hired a domestic helper.. darling hubby is getting thinner by the day with all the housework that he has to manage, so we decided to outsource this part of our life, hopefully to free up more time for rest and kids.

Me... something exciting is going to happen in my life. I shall not divulge the secret.. but it is a dream come true... thank god for this.. :)

and lastly something to look forward to, the four of us are taking a vacation to sentosa this weekend... I need a break..
