Ben 10 collections

On top of these stuff, he has a sticker book which consists of 500 Ben's stickers, pyjamas that mommy need to wash every morning since he wants to weat it every nite ( I think I need to get him another set, in fact I was told that 1 mommy bought 18 sets of Ben 10 pyjamas for her son)

In school, teacher called him Ben10 boy, that's make him even happier.

Hard work pays off

Coconut

It was about bedtime, and I was making milk for my kids. Jo2 ran to me and told me that he wanted to drink coconut water. So, I promised him that I will buy it tomorrow since it's too late and all the shops closed already.

The next day, I bought 2 packets only since most of the time, Jo2 ordered and he don't really like to drink coconut water. To my surprise, both of them manage to finish 1 packet, and ordered again. This round, he said he wanted to drink it from the coconut, that's only consider as drinking coconut water.

So, did they ask for another round.

Answer is : no. I guess too much coconut water make them visit the toilets too regalarly until the wee is pure white!! (that's what they told me)

You are "Beary" special.

I received this right after I stepped into the house from work on Valentine's Day. It's a very simple red color paper plate with a bear holding a heart shape note stating : You are beary special. Very impressive art work done by Jo2.


We went to Miraku Japanese Restaurant for dinner, all of us enjoyed the food very much,and we were lucky to get a table without prior reservation made. Papa2jojo and I don't really celebrate this occasion, so we actually didn't planned to dine out since Jo1 has to go to school until 6:30pm. It's a replacement class for long holidays during CNY.

Back home, I got another surprise....

on top of that, my lovely daughter also said this to me:

"Mommy, I luv u very much. You are the greatest mommy. "

by looking at so many heart shapes on this paper, u can tell how much she loves Me...hahaha. And I bet it's come out from the bottom of her heart.

That's really make a "beary" special mommy in this special occasion.

CNY 2009 @ Penang

After all these years, I finally managed to persuade papa2jojo to take us to Kek Lok Si temple, he can take us to shopping malls and spend time there for few hours but not crowded places like this. We supposed Thaipusam celebrations @ town area has drawn the crowd away, we drove to the top where the Goddess of Mercy is located in less than 15 min.

Our first attempt was to let the kids take photo with their own zodiac. Later, Jo2 saw the ox and he said he MUST take photo with this animal, next he saw the tiger, next he saw the ... ...yup, we ended up took photos with 12 animals in Chinese Zodiac.

Her wish on the ribbon is "弟子 xxx,愿合家平 安, 万事如意."

We headed home @ around 9pm, I would say that we were lucky to escape the traffic jam. Cars queue all the way on the opp lane of while we were driving down.

CNY 2009 @ Taiping

As usual, my CNY is celebrated @ papa2jojo's hometown - Taiping. We had steamboat reunion dinner on the eve of CNY, all food brought all the way from Penang coz Penang wet market offers more variety.

Praying at the Taiping Buddhist temple is our routine on the first day morning of CNY after the greeting Ah Mah (my MIL) with 恭喜发财,新年快乐,身体 健康.
