On a day off...

Been around reading other people's blog, and wished that i could write abt similar stuffs that had happened to me... like abt MIL and all, but knowing that my hubby would read and probably no be too great abt it... ive decided not too... although there are many a time that could juz sit in front of the com n type off n go da da da.... so at times when i want to write, i juz dont do it and go read on my frens blogs instead.. haha

my baby's at my mummy's so today's off day for me n hub. actually, its since yesterday, taking care of her juz zapped up so much of our energy... ethel probably loves my mummy more than she loves us :( sigh... she bullys us a lot, and demands attention and needs to be entertained constantly! But she's a perfect angel with my mum! Not trying to complain, but it is exhausting. Really marvel at how my mum manages her, and manages the usual chores at the same time. Fantastic.

Went to eat buffet, shopping and played pool with the usual guys yesterday. then got so exhausted that we came home and knocked out a straight 12-hrs till afternoon. What a breather! Havent felt so relaxed for almost a week, 5 days actually. Ethel was easy to manage when we got her back from my mum's last weekend... but then.... da da da... sigh...

Nonetheless... shall share some nice pix again...

Me, sis n mummy at the wedding dinner on sunday at hotel royal.

We look kind of alike ya... Hee



This is me n my hubby.... sweet ya?

Am very tempted to put a pix that was taken last nite at pool. Eugene has posed for me with his bum out n up... quite a cute and candid pose... but ive decided to do him so justice by posting this nice pix of him cueing for the 9-ball at the last frame n thus winning the frame...

Look, he's so serious....

The Princess Diary -- Ethel @ 2 months

Yippee yippee....

My precious little one is exactly 2 months old!

Daddy and Mummy call her Ethel, the grandparents call her Jiaxuan, born at Mount Alvernia Hospital exactly 2 months ago, on 08th November 05 at 3am.

This pix was taken when she is a week old, when she juz came home from the hospital.

Notice the little bandage on her left hand? It's due to the fact that she has to be placed on the drip, cos she was small at birth, and she had to be go through some tests, but being strong and fierce, she passed all the tests and can go home after a week!

Was really sad when i look at her back in the hospital, it really hurts badly looking at the little marks on her feet after the blood tests... sobz.

Well... she's now getting fatter n fatter! She is a stubborn little one, i guess she definitely takes after her daddy a lot!

This is Ethel when she is a month old, more chubby and smiling a lot. She is a joy and she spreads her love around both families. She is one full of expressions, and she displays all her feelings with her facial expressions. Aint she a cute little one?

She is 2 months old today.... she can look at you in the eyes and smile really sweetly at you, and she has juz started to chuckle (and so her ah yi says...), she starts to recognise people around her, especially my mum, who takes care of her most of the time, mostly the weekdays. She goes "nrgh..." when she poos... she responses to mozart, and she smile when u call her name...

My precious ethel.... her most current pix... taken by her very doting ah yi... have to give credit to ah yi for capturing such nice fat moments.... cheerios...

I really really like this picture of Ethel and Alvin. Looks lovely, and its kind of adoring, I really like the way uncle alvin and the baby niece ethel look at each other. So engaging. So sweet.

Fun @ Aloha Loyang

Slept a straight 14 hours yesterday. Was dog tired.

Cos was at chalet with hubby, sis n alvin. Was at Aloha Loyang.
Went shopping for food n stuffs at carrefour. That was enjoyable, bought marinated beef, lots of chicken wings, prawns, sotong balls, da da da.. n of cos my favourite bacon, not forgetting red wine...
By the time we drove there it was almost 5pm. Checked in and was told that there was an aircon meter to monitor out usage. Anything more than 25 units is chargeable. Der....

Hubby Fat was starving (so was Alvin...) so fat went to start the fire going, n kind alvin marinated the food for us. Of cos i helped a little here n there.... n huimei merely did all the poking and wrapping... hahaha...

ended up having my hands smelling of chicken wings with teriyaki sauce... haha... fat's fire almost got out out by the rain, but fortunately it was strong enough.

And the BBQ began after alvin for a dip in the pool n we got back from more shopping from cheers at downtown east. Me n huimei got the first bite as the guys were busy bbq-ing. Not bad... pretty good actually...

Got so tired from eating, n me sneaked in the room to have a good rest. And i heard (from huimei) that the 2 fully grown up men were like monkeys trying to strip each other, admist of banging doors n towels n the such... keke. They did created lots of noise, n tried to put the blame on next door (even noiser) neighbours.

And these fellas decided to go for pool n practically dragged me out of bed (and alvin was jumping on my bed!) so we drove to our usual hang for pool. these 2 guys practically spent the next 1.5hrs drooling at a skimply dressed girl who was bending over so much, showing so much leg, n half drunk. Der...

Went back n bbq some more, got really tired of looking at SO SO SO much food. ended up not finishing lots of it, which eventually got into the tummy of the garbage bin. So wasteful! Whose fault? The guys.... who insisted they can finish 20 chicken wings each! Nah!

alvin had a tummyache so he went to slp, me, fat n sis played da di n drink some more. having finished the red wine during the bbq, we started on our vodak mandarin. not bad... but i kept on losing at da di.. so crappy! was never so so down on my luck before!

anyway... tis was fun, despite having just the 4 of us... heehee....

was quite surprised that the 4 of us actually clicked so well... huimei n alvin being together for not too long... n tat alvin dun really regard me as 'gf's sis' so can play n joke around n have fun. that is good in a way... otherwise, hanging out with them might not be as fun...

looking forward to the next chalet... perhaps aranda country club?

will upload the pix once its ready.... Smilez..
