Maybe?

We might be having Beggar Chicken for dinner later.. mmm.. guess where then?

Did you get it on your own?

I remembered how I was so eager to get my driving license so I can drive out to anywhere I want and not wait for people to come pick me up, if they are free, feel like it or on the way passing my house.

When I got my driving license, I was already studying in KL. Back then, I had to walk a 10 minutes walk out to the bus-stop to take the bus to college. I asked my parents for a car. They didn't want to get me one. My dad just won't give it to me. So bus I took for the rest of my uni-college years. It was not all that bad since I had the ex's car to drive sometimes when he is not using it, college mates who is in the same area carpooled me.. but most of the time, it was the bus and the long walk home in the sun.

I didn't get a car till I started working in the corporate world for real. Paid my own downpayment and that was it.. I finally got my own car, tho it is a tiny one but nevertheless, it is my OWN. I BOUGHT MY CAR ON MY OWN! It was rather a struggle to pay for rent and car installments at the same time but I pulled it through.. with Hubby now taking over the burden. =) *thank you* but still it is now OUR CAR. WITH NO HELP OR WHATSOEVER.. I feel very proud of my this achievement even when this friend of mine laughed at me that shes got a bigger car than mine. I know she is joking and I didn't mind but if it were others that made such a comment, I would have said at least I got it all on my own without my parents having to fork out any $$ for it.

A lot of people asked me if Simon drives. I say no.. he sits behind and takes care of Jaden while I drive around. I have been driving around for years and I like it. Hubby can't have any of those car-jerking moments due to his slip disc. I prefer to keep it safe and I drive.
People asked too if when are we going to change little monster? I don't know that yet.. but I am sure I would rather put downpayment for a house first instead of a car. The car can wait. Little monster is still going strong.. so why change her now? A car can wait.. you guys can go zoom zoom in your big cars while I go zoom in my little faithful one. =)


I love you little monster!

Superficial me.. but thats me =)

influenced badly by Gwen but not as bad as she is.. but still its all your fault Gwen!

I have my eyes set on this baby. What do you think? Its about USD348... conversion rate is 3.6 at the moment.. just waiting for it to go back to 3.2 exchange rate before thinking about getting it.. but still.. I wonder how can I even hint to the botak fella.. hmm...

and this baby is selling at USD458. I know.. even more expensive than the one above.. *sigh* how? dilemma dilemma...


**HINT HINT**

Essentials little boys like me need ...

Checking to see if anybody is looking at me.. No? Set-lah..

Now how do I open these two CNY cookies goodies?



I am so living the song, "Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar?" *tee hee*

and of course these babies.. One day they are all gonna be mineeee!

Now ssshh.. don't go telling daddy on me k? *burps and rub tummy*

I am so grateful, so so very grateful that Jaden only started to accept drinking formula like now now because if he did back since Sept 2007, I would think I will only be clad in t-shirts and pants that costs less than RM5 for the rest of his drinking milk stage.

Tesco was selling Pediasure 900g for RM55.95 then or something like that. Confirm the RM55 is there la.. others I saw was selling at RM57 lah, RM60 lah and I thought to myself so lucky I go grocery shopping at Tesco. I saw the big 1.8kg Pediasure selling then at about RM77 or RM88 only then.. and I was like.. SO WORTH IT WEY!

Then yesterday I had to go and re-supply the milk powder because Jaden finished the 900g tin of milk in like 2 weeks.. he drinks milk twice a day now.. once in the morning and once at night before bed.

Jusco was prolly selling the 900g at RM60 or RM62 so I confidently told Hubby that we should just get it at Tesco which is like RM5 cheaper. So Iz drove us there and I ran down to get the milk powder. It will be more worth it and longer lasting if I were to get the 1.8kg size.. and when I reached the aisle, I almost choked blood. Guess how much it cost like NOWWWW???

Just after CNY, the price all shot up to RM59.99 for 900g and RM117.30 for 1.8kg. I mean WHAT? Why? What reason do they have to inflate the prices in like just a few days? If i knew, I should have grabbed a few when it was selling cheap. DAMNIT!

I queued at the cashier counter waiting for my turn to pay. The guy in front of me bought a lot of things and he paid only RM120. I got only 1 thing to pay for and it costs me RM120 too. Where is the justice? EVen the cashier lady commented when I was paying.. "Mahal-nya!"

yea RIGHT! IT is DAMN MAHAL lor.. what to do? All for in the name of making sure Jaden receives proper nutrients to grow strong and healthy.


p/s: Is it normal for a 16 month old only to drink 240-260ml per feed? Or should they be drinking more?

Pleasant surprises =)

As hubby and I were at the computer area, having a discussion about something, we suddenly hear the door creaked opened and out came crawling a little baby boy who just woke up.. how cute can that get and it happen on the day he officially turns 16 months old. =) It sure was an early surprising start to the day..

Then at about 2.30 to 3pm came a knock on our door. I opened it and then close it back. Then open it again and close it and ran to the room to wake Hubby up. I really couldn't believe who turned up at my door. No lah, it is not Lee Hom at my door. OMG ! Iz is back from UK!!!!!!!!!!

Even Hubby who was so tired got out of bed. All for Iz... *sigh* I am so happy he is back. I am sure Hubby too is happy that his bestfriend is back too. At last Iz got to see his god-son live for the very first time and well, Jaden just took an instant liking to his god-pa. Instinctive maybe?

Charlotte and Iz came at the right day anyway today. It is Jaden's 16-month old day and as usual, we will get a cake to celebrate and this time, Iz got to eat the cake.

Look at how happy they all are..

HaPpY 16 MoNtHs OLD

We can finally take a breather and go enjoy Chinese New Year these few days and keep Jaden company...
