Nice date today so have to leave a mark :)

Some short updates from me...

1. Maira can walk and even run a bit now. She is always ALWAYS tailing Audrene. Ikut mana2 kakak pegi and tersenyum2 in doing so :)
2. Audrene can play the piano with both hands now. And she enjoys playing it!
3. I manage to fast this year despite breastfeeding Maira. I think drinking 100 Plus during sahur helps a lot.
4. I haven't bought any new baju for raya.
5. I haven't even ordered any cookies for raya.
6. It's 5.30pm and I have no idea what to have for buka!

That's all. Am sleepy and having a headache now. Bye-bye!

At The Beach!

Over the long weekend we went off to Kuantan which is Daddy's hometown and of course the main highlight was at the beach. This beach outing is special, too, because it's Baby Maira's first beach trip ever and she had loads of fun!






Just look at her face! All smiley! Ohh...she has a little shell in her hand. She found it at the beach and held on to it even when we cleaned her up. Tak nak lepas.. Excited sangat! Audrene jangan ceritalah. Bangun tidur terus nak pegi beach. Memang suka sangat dapat main air!

In Kuantan, too, I realised that lotsa people were wearing face masks and I could see posters and buntings that remind everyone on how by wearing masks can save the lives of your loved ones. That is very, very responsible of the people and I am impressed.

Yawnnn..Alright people, am sleepy already Goodnite everyone and have a great week!

My Little Card

Last night was Audrene's ballet concert. After months of practising, last night was THE NIGHT and it was SUPERB!!!

Audrene played a card... here she is.. my sweetest, loveliest card! She was sooooo excited and happy because her face was all made up. Little girl mana yang tak suka make up kan... Check out her face! Gembira!!


Her nice and sweet teacher adding more colours to her face.. Thank you teacher!!! Her teacher was one of the advanced students and she was really really good!


Wave wave wave!!!


And jump up and down!!!


Here's one of my favorite performances.


And my darling Baby Maira... of cos she was there to cheer for her kakak!!


Audrene and I were there from 1pm and the show was at 7pm. From the time we reached the hall (it was Dewan Sivik, MBPJ) until showtime, there were 2 rounds of rehearsals. Boy, memang hard work ok. Not so much for Audrene but for the older students. Audrene and her friends had fun because they get to play, run and jump around all day. But the older kids.. they must love ballet and dancing so much to be able to pull last night's concert. Real tough but the show was superb! Worth every sweat of practising!

So that was it! Probably I'll post more pics. My sister was there too and she took more photos. After months of sending Audrene back and forth the academy (ermmm... not me... most of the time my mom yang hantar...ngeee), last night was the show. Just now I asked how she felt on stage... scared ke... excited ke...happy ke... She said... Happy la Mummy! Fun!! Tapi takut jatuh masa lari2... hehehehe! I'm glad she had fun too!

Ok everyone... Off to bed now. I was typing while cooking for sahur and food dah siap. All are done so I can say goodnite now :)

Selamat berpuasa everyone and have a great week ahead!

Short Updates!

Short one from me as I'm extremely busy with the girls!

1. Kakak dah pandai baca music notes. She played Mary Had A Little Lamb on the piano yesterday by refering to her music book. I am impressed!!
2. Maira has taken 8 steps. She's a big girl now!
3. Kakak and adik dah pandai gaduh :p

That's all, folks!

Happy Birthday Baby Maira!

Yay yay yay!!! Baby Maira is ONE today!!! Happy birthday sweetheart.. We love you so very very much!!!

Also, she took FIVE big steps today!!! We are so proud of you!!!

Too Short A Weekend

Doncha think that there should be 3 days in a weekend? 2 days are simply not enough. I was outstation until lunchtime yesterday so that made this weekend extra short :(

Today was kinda busy for me. Audrene had full-dress rehearsal for her ballet concert. I had to send her to school in full make-up 30 minutes before rehearsal started because she needed to change to her costume. Of course I was late!! Grrr!! But phew, I still managed to arrive before the photo shoot so Audrene was fine. I was amazed to see the older girls transforming the little kids in just a couple of minutes. Before I knew it Audrene was already in her costume with a very neat ponytail. Very fast indeed!

This is Audrene after she was all made up. Sitting and waiting with her friends.. Muka serious. Probably malu because I was the only mom who brought a camera. The teachers were extra garang today because they had to shoo the parents away. They were all busy testing their costumes and getting ready for photo shoot. Kecoh kalau parents ada.

Ahaha.. my make up colours are all in natural and earth shades so Audrene's make-up was not as vibrant as some other girls.. Sorry sweetheart. I'll make sure I'll buy more colourful makeup for your concert!



After ballet, Audrene and I singgah at the park because Daddy brought Maira there. Maira sekarang nak try diri and jalan all the time. She didn't even want me to hold her hands tadi. Nak jalan sendiri! Big girl dah!!





Here's another picture of Maira on Audrene's 'inhouse transportation'.. Hehehe!



Ok everyone, goodnite! Both Audrene and Maira are well tucked in bed. I pun nak rest. Sleepy dah. Bye bye!

On A Marathon

...Without A Trace marathon! Me running in a marathon? Yeah right, not in this life kot... Hahahaha!

I am glued to my ipod cos my hubby has uploaded it with episodes of WAT. I am soooo happy! I have also bought Sophie Kinsella's latest book "Twenties Girl". I am so excited!!! Must remember to bring it to my offsite meeting tomorrow!!!

Now I memang have no chance to watch TV because Audrene controls the remote... Grrr! Its 616 ALL THE TIME! And it's Tom & Jerry EVERY NIGHT!!!! Tapi tak pe, I ada WAT in my ipod :)

Gotto go gotto go.. Maira just took 3 steps on her own!!!! Yay!!!!
