Fun Weekend !!

Last weekend, Kimi had some wonderful family gatherings ~ We went to Hubby’s cousin house at USJ for her daughter’s Birthday Party on Saturday night. Kimi had a great time with some of the little kids around. Although he still couldn't run around to play with them, by watching the little kids playing and running here and there, Kimi was having loads of fun mixing around! His laugthers were all night long ^_^ Never seemed to be tired at all thoughout the whole party. But when we were on the way back home after the party, he felt asleep almost immediately in the car!! This Kimi is getting more and more playful nowadays ~

Haha, he still cannot sing yet and must be at the side wondering what is happening!



Some of the Delicious food prepared by the Host ~ Yummy!!



On Sunday, we brought Kimi to the Theme Park to have some fun. Hubby played some games and tried to win some souvenirs for Kimi. We didn't manage to play a lot of games. So we ended up won ourselves a few key chains and one tissue box holder only. Besides that, Mummy brought Kimi for some rides as well ^_^

He was so happy on that day :)


Kimi had a wonderful weekend! Glad that he was having fun around ~~

Coping with Kimi and Work Together

It has almost been one month Kimi is here staying with us in KL. Seeing him growing up every single day next to me, I think is the best gift ever. To cuddle him, to bath him, to put him to sleep, to play with him and to watch ‘Astro Xiao Tai Yang’ channel with him are my daily job now. Of course, in between, I need to cope with my office work from home and occasionally cook some meals for hubby and I, days seem to be very busy for me. Yes, it can really be very busy. Once a while, it can be frustrated as well when Kimi is not so co-operative at times and at the same time I have sales target to meet at work. However, really hope that the effort which I am putting him can let him grow up healthily and happily with us...

Kimi at 10 Months:-

He has 3 teeth now (2 at the bottom and 1 on top right) and the 4th one is on the way (top left). For the past few days, he has very little afternoon naps. Only want us to carry him. Perhaps the teeth growth makes him a bit unwell. One lucky thing is that, besides a bit on his ‘pampered mood’, the rest are still ok for him. He still eats and poos well.

At 10 months, Kimi is able to stand up by himself when we put him at the baby cot. He is able to pull himself up and then walk sideways while holding on to the baby cot. Never did I expect that not long after we put Kimi in the baby cot, he is able to do all these by himself. 2 more weeks to go and he will be 11 months' old already. Phew, time flies soooo fast!

Now, staying at home for almost one month already, my daily life is getting busier. Coping with Kimi and work at the same time, are now an easy task. Just hope that I can faster get into the right way and can cope with both well. Ya, practise makes perfect, I supposed :)

Oops, now opening up my camera, only to realize that, I was so busy until I didn’t manage to shot more photos of Kimi since he was in KL with us. Haha … Aiyoyo, when I want to update blog only realize that I have only a few photos to choose from ~ Okok, Kimi's Daddy, I will try to shot more from now on and share it with you ya ^_^

Kimi at 9 Months' Old ~

I have been staying with Kimi for a few days already, and enjoying every single day out of it! Today is the first time I myself cook Kimi's porridge for him. Before this, MIL was the one who cooked it, and my job is to feed him when I visited Kimi at Taiping. So now, I can prepare the ingredients myself, then boil and blend it, and finally feed Kimi with the porridge.


Kimi started to crawl at 9 months' old. Seemed like a bit late compare to the babies around his age ~ But it is ok, Hubby and I enjoy to see Kimi's every single learning milestone. When Kimi was in KL last weekend, we put him on the bed and saw him crawled. He is so fast with it and after a few seconds, he was at the side of the bed already. Hehe :) Need to really monitor him all the time when he is on the bed ^_^

Kimi's first tooth finally popped out last week too. Actually all of us never realized it until he bite MIL's shoulder when she was carrying him a few days ago. MIL felt the pain and opened Kimi's mouth to have a look, and we saw his first tooth on his bottom gum! All of us were very excited over it ~~ Keep on wanting him to open his mouth to show us the tooth. Haha :) His second tooth is right next to the first one. We can feel the rough gum too. Same goes to the upper gum. I think in a few more weeks' time, we should be able to see a couple more starting to pop out soon...


I am so excited over all these Kimi's growing up. Wish to be there for him every single day ~ Oh ya, before Kimi shifted to KL, PIL brought him to the paedetrician at Taiping for a simple body check-up. He is now 10.1 kgs at 9 months and 3 weeks' old ~~

Kimi Moves Back to KL ~

Last Saturday, Kimi moved back to KL as what we had planned on early this year. He is going to stay with his Daddy and Mummy from now on. PIL fetched him to KL for us. Hehe, so many things to move over. Baby cot, high chair, walker, etc-etc... Looks more like moving a house. Haha :) The car was so full with his things!!

I have been looking forward for this day to arrive. From the suggestions from Hubby (to ask me to work from home while taking care of Kimi), to opening mouth to discuss this idea with my bosses, to arranging my job scopes, to NOW, realizing the ideas, it seemed so much like a dream came true, and I am very glad that things went on smoothly as planned. It took me almost half a year for the transition period, to arrange my work schedules, and to now, I will be working from home for around 6-12 months at the same time taking care of Kimi by myself. I really wish to thank my bosses for agreeing to me on this idea, and wish to thank Hubby for supporting me to bring Kimi near to both of us.

I know, this new path might be tough, might not be so easy, as I need to cope with work and Kimi at the same time, but I pray everyday for myself, to be able to MAKE IT to be a better mummy!! I am still adapting myself to this new life, still trying to accomplish things in schedule, and at the same time, still trying to let Kimi get use to this new environment, but I am sure, with the support of Hubby and my families, I can cope with it well.

First night in his KL room with us, Kimi seemed to be a bit hard to adapt into his new room. So it took us some time to put him to sleep. Second night, things got better a little bit, but Kimi still woke up in the middle of the night and cried for a while. Third night, I finally able to put Kimi into sleep by myself. Glad that Kimi likes this new place and hope that he can have a good night sleep every night from now on with us.

So yesterday, after settling down Kimi, PIL went back to Taiping, leaving Kimi with us. MIL weeped for a while before she left our house. I know it is a bit hard for her to leave Kimi with us as she was the one who took care of Kimi all these while. She dotes on Kimi sooOOoo much, we all can see that. But don't worry PIL, you all can still come and visit us every weekend if you wish. We will also once a while fetch Kimi back to Taiping to visit you as well. We are very sure that Kimi would love to see you all very soon ^_^

Thanks PIL, for all the effort in helping us to bring up Kimi for so many months. We really appreciate that!

All these while, we hardly bought any toys for Kimi. He had been playing with his very limited toys choices all along. So, to welcome Kimi in KL, Hubby decided to buy a set of new toys for him. Hurray !! This set of toys has 3 different types of learning set for infant ages 3 months onwards. Kimi enjoys playing them very much ~~ We also bought a new cereal for him to try. Besides cooking porridge for him and feeding him with milk, we once a while will let Kimi eats some cereal to change in between meals. The cereal which Kimi used to eat before this was very difficult to buy, always out of stock. So we decided to change another one to see if he likes it or not :)

Hubby took 2 days leaves to accompany me at home, just in case I cannot cope with Kimi all by myself. So today I had some time to prepare a simple lunch for both of us.
~ Egg soup, fried brussel sprout and 'sambal' prawns ~


Kimi was sitting at the side accompanying us to eat ~ Hehe... He wanted to try out the food and he seemed to be very curious over the food but too bad, he cannot eat them yet. He can only be at the side viewing us ~~

Weekends Gathering ~

For the past 2 weekends, I travelled outstation to meet up some friends. One of my university's friends was back to Malaysia from Taiwan for a few days, so our friends all gathered at Ipoh to meet her and her hubby. Her family stayed there, our friends, some travelled from KL, some from Penang, all gathered at Ipoh together ~

It was a great trip as I got to meet most of my university's good friends. A nice lunch with nice companions! Too bad, two of our friends didn't manage to turn up as they needed to work on that weekend ~

~ My Good Friends during the University's time ~

After the gathering, I travelled back to Taiping to visit my beloved Kimi!! Hehe :) MIL came out with this idea of stacking up the milk powder as photo's background. So we shot some of Kimi's photos with it so that when he grows up one day, he can remember what type of milk powder he drank when he was a baby ~~ This was one of our favourite's shots!


Last weekend, I went to Singapore to visit some of my friends there too. We had a very nice lunch at Marche. Really appreciate our friendship a lot !! I was really very touched when they took the trouble to come and meet me. Thanks ya, everyone for your attendance! And Bao, you even came in bus with your daugther carried in hands alone. Let me feel very blessed to have a bunch of good friends such as you all ~~ Hope to see you all soon again in the near future ^_^


Now some of us already have kids and become Mummies already... Some of us are still singles, but is ok, GAMBATTE!! I am sure all of us will be blessed with lots of happiness no matter where we are... May our friendship be forever !

Besides gatherings, I had some nice food in Singapore and also met up my cousin's family ~


Thanks Ashley, for playing the host with the assistance of your mummy ~ Ah-yi next time go Singapore visit you again ya.. Hehe, you are really great walking map! Hopefully the next round I go Singapore, I can bring Kimi along to play with you. And thank you for all the funny jokes. I really enjoyed my stay with you ~~

Yesterday, Hubby picked me from airport. We went for our Father's Day dinner. Hehe, too bad this week Kimi was not with us, but hopefully the next Father's Day, Kimi is able to celebrate it with his beloved Daddy ~~ Hubby requested to eat at a place with World Cup screening. After scouting around at The Curve, we finally chose to settle at 'Bavarian Bierhaus'. It was not as crowded as the rest of the restaurants there and it had a big screen for World Cup. Hehe :) This restaurant's food has never disappoined us. So again, we had another satisfying meal here. The pork shoulder which we ordered was very soft and tender and very delicious too!! Tasted so much like our Chinese 'Roasted Pork'. Hubby loves it!

~ Happy Father's Day to you, Hubby!~

I have two very happy and lovely weekends with my friends and families!! And this weekend, I am going to meet up Kimi soon ~~ Counting down ^_^
