Down Memory Lane

I did some spring cleaning before the CNY and I encountered this old photos of mine in a box which I've forgotten since my moved. It got me tickled pink reminiscing my younger days. Did some editing and just thought it would be lovely to share with you guys.

Here are some of my favourites. Surprisingly, I still have vivid memories of where and when the pics were taken. I must admit, I had a fun and loving childhood with my many siblings. A wonderful up bringing from my parents.

I see alot of Timothy in me. Very strong resemblance of me rite..... But Daddy for sure dont agree one...... Wat do you guys think???

I think I was about 7 to 8 mths old. +

2 yrs

Showing off my painted nails. Already so vain!!!

3 yrs +

So stylo..milo!!! Posing away.

Same age as Timothy now.

Pics of Ken when he was a baby and toddler. Cute baby... but still not as cute me !!! hehehehe

Random Pics

Pics taken with family members & love ones during CNY gathering.

Eugene, Jordan are both Timothy's cousin. They are such good playmates.

MaMa Chris & Timothy. Eventhough my Mum seldom get to see Timothy as she lives in SP but yet when she is in town Timothy is inseparable with his MaMa. Timothy claims that his MaMa Chris, makes the best banana cake in the whole world.

Eugene & Timothy playing game boy together.




My 2 younger brothers, Javis & Nicholas. Sorry gals, "sudah orang punya". Heeheehe

Red Box, The Curve

Doing what I do best, singing my lungs out. Luv going to karaoke with the boys. Always had a blast.

Introducing, Marky Mark. Hubby's best buddy. He was the best man on our wedding also . Ladiessss....he is single and available. Do buzz me if any of you are interested. I'll be willing to play matchmaker. Ok. Hahahahahaha. (Mark, I know you are gonna kill me for this) *wink wink*

The ferocious, Timothy. GGGRRRRRRrrrrrrrrr....

Angpow

It has been exactly 6 yrs, I'm distributing angpows and I do miss receiving them. (those were the days la :P) My role every year is putting $$$ in this red little packets before the eve and to tell you the truth it is no fun as I know the $$$ is not gonna be mine. Hahaha.

On the other hand, Timothy knows the concept of getting angpow better this year and he made sure it's all kept safely in his backpack. Will only count how much he has collected when CNY is over.

My poor hubby had a minor operation on his hand on 1st day of CNY. :( An infection of a cyst he got for quite sometime. He tried to do his own operation by poking it with my sewing needle. *pandai pandai la* From there, it got really badly infected. The whole left hand was swollen to double the size. Luckily, his Aunt and Uncle are both doctors and they managed to arrange for an immediate operation. He is better now. Been taking good care of hubby.

CNY has always been eating, eating and eating. Nothing else. I dare not even go near the weighing machine. Oh ya....and also drinking...gulp....gulp...gulp. I guess I better give my liver a break soon. *wink*. Did not gamble so far as I am never good at it and I am such a bad loser.

Timothy with 'handicapped' Daddy. :D

Gambling with his cousin, Ivy. Hehehe

Timothy & Daddy

Happy CNY!!!

Wishing You A HAPPY CHINESE NEW!!!

My Love

Timothy rushed through the door and said "Mummyyyyyyy, sit down and close your eyesssss...... don't try to peek ah." I said "OK darling"... as I grinned happily. Heard him ransacking his backpack and he shouted.... SURPRISEEeeeeee. He presented me this beautiful card. I screamed happily and gave him a big kiss and hug. He smiled proudly like a big boy and said the little pink flower he drew is specially for me. I know you like pink colour, mummy......

So sweet riteeeee!!!!!!!!! Happy tears in mummy's eyes. I love you so much, Timothy!!!

Valentine's Day

To me, Valentine's Day is just overated. I don't like the whole commercialism surrounding it. I always tell Ken not to spend exorbitant prices for flowers or dinner. I think it is ridiculous. It doesn't mean that he loves me less without all this expression of gifts on this particular day.

BUT... I was really happy last year when Timothy came back from school and gave me a Valentine card he made. I was at the top of the world. My 'first' Valentine card from my son. I'm looking forward on his return from school later. Can't wait la!!!

Anyway, I will prepare dinner at home as I've invited Mark & Shawn to join us this evening. I have 4 men ( including little Timothy) accompanying me tonite. Not bad huh!!! hahaha.

Will snap some shots later.

Party!

I just love taking pics with my preggy frens. Sweetheart Denise is 4 mths pregnant. She organised a surprise birthday party for her hubby, Kumo. Tremendously sweettttttt. We had a blast!!!

The cake is so hilarious!!! hehehe.

Visit to the Dentist.

Timothy had his teeth checked. He was a brave boy and was not even a bit nervous. (I was the nervous one) Hahaha. I presumed he has the confidence coz he is acquainted to Dr.Chai, my orthodontist.

He follows me to my monthly appointment for my braces and the high light of the trip everytime is choosing the colour rubberbands for the brackets on my teeth. Hehehe.

Such a good doctor. Before proceeding to check Timothy's tiny teeth, he spent a long time explaining and showing how the equipments operate. He allows him to touch and feel the stuff around him and with that he was at ease and it was more like a game he was playing. He had fun. Ha!!!!

I still remember when I was little, I was terrified of dentists. The smell of the place made me sick. Upon my visits, I would cried my eyes out and struggled like a pig when it's about to be slaughtered. 'Cialat'. Really bad memories la !!! Geezzz....

Getting his teeth checked and cleaned. My lil brave boy.

A Piece of Art!!!

This is Timothy's latest piece of art. "The fierce Great White Shark", he calls it. His art teachers always compliment on his work and commented that he has a mind of his own. They just adore him. He does his drawing and painting independently and has his own creativity and originality.

So much paint.... need to wash my dirty hands, said Timothy after end of his lesson.

A lil exhibition corner I did for Timothy at home whereby I sticked his art work collection on the wall.

Thomas the Train...

I am also reading too..... said Timothy. "Thomas the Train" . Choooo....choooo...chooo!!!!

Yeahhhhh!!! Classic.... :D

A lil bit of history...

My fixation recently is this book, a historical biography, Marie Antoinette, "The Journey" by author, Antonia Fraser. The iconic Queen of France of the 17th century who was married to the King VXI of France at a very tender age. A splendid story indeed...

I also watched the movie based on the true story. Directed by producer, Sofia Cappola. Starred by Kirsten Dunsten. A movie with wonderful graphics, colours and sights. Up-beat sound tracks as well but very lil dialogue on the script, though. I guess the aimed of the director is for the audience to feast the eyes.

I just 'Lovvvveeeeee' the antique jewels the ancient ladies were wearing. ;) So lovely la.

Marie Antoinette, aged 12 or 13. Before she was married off at 15.

Marie Antoinette with her children. Why an empty crib??????

Read the book and you'll find out la.

The Movie.

Another movie affiliated is based on a controversial true story involving Marie Antoinette. "The Affair of the Necklace". Starred by Hilary Swank. More of a thriller and romance perspective. A very valuable piece of necklace initially hoped to sell to Madame Du Barry but was later offered to Marie Antoinette and was declined. Magnificient plot!!!

The Affair of the Necklace. (thumbs up!!!)

Now and Then....

Can you believe this was Timothy when he was 4 mths old????

Cute huh!!!

I still remember clearly he loves taking his bath. Splash....splash...splash... till the maid gets wet.

Such a good Happy Baby!!!

And look at him now!!!!! Timothy and Mummy. Forever my BABY.

Happy Birthday

Wishing my beloved Hubby a Very Happy Birthday.

Had a small do at the pool at 3pm. Catered some yummy food. The guys were playing ball games in the pool and the ladies were just relaxing and chit chatting away.

I was indeed very thankful for the beautiful weather. Blue sky and so sooo windy. Gosh!!!! Timothy swam for almost 3 hrs eventhough he has running nose. :P Comatose when put him to bed. Me feeling tipsy and tired as well. Cause of it???...... Easily said.... too much beers la. ;)

Me

My dearie, Suzanne.
