Mooncake Gathering

We had a mooncake gathering at our house last Sat. Joy enjoys the most as there were children of her age & she was so willing to share her toys with them. We were so busy that we did not take much photos. Joy was happily playing with Gerald gor gor (Joy likes playing with boys) till Lovin & Ritchie came.



Joy with our god-daughter Lovin. They were so happy to see each other. Look at the happy face on both of them


Joy with Lovin & Ritchie (Lovin's brother)


Zoey is very selective of people carrying her. So we are quite surprised that she was so willing to let Uncle Daniel carry her without any sign of protest.

Looking forward to the next gathering again.

Cooking!!

Last Sat was the 1st time that I am cooking for my in laws & dear. I decided to cook fried noodle as it should be quite easy to cook. However, only 30% of the cooking was done by me :(

Reason 1
Cant differentiate between onion & garlic. So mil helped me to pick put the onion.

Reason 2
Maid help to do the preparation work as its the 1st time i cooking for so many ppl.

Reason 3
Mil help to proportion the seasoning for the noodle.

Reason 4
While cooking the noodle & egg, Joy came into the kitchen & insist that I play with her. When I refuse, she lie down on the dirty kitchen floor. So mil & maid took over the cooking :(

Hope I can improve on the next attempt of cooking.......

Please, thank you & Excuse me

Joy has been a polite child recently but only to certain family members. However you have to listen hard bcos her pronounciation is not very accurate. Below are a few examples:

Scene 1
Papa sitting on the sofa & she wants to take something on the table behind the sofa.
Joy: (Ex)cuse me, (ex)cuse me (while pushing her way through)

Scene 2
Wanted to drink yakult & wanted to poke the straw in the bottle herself
Mama: Say please
Joy: pease (very softly)

Scene 3 (which happened last nite at ah ma hse)
Joy went Ah ma hse to slp overnite. Ah ma was making milk for her.
Joy: Ah ma xie4 xie4 (she say this without us prompting her)
I was shocked & stunned when she said these. After i recovered from the shock, I feel very proud of her . I keep on praising her while carrying her to the room to slp. Ah ma comment is 'Ah ma will strike 4D already'.

Sick Gals (2)

My gals are sick again :( Joy was down with fever (highest temp 39.3) & one ulcer at the inside of the lips since Thur. When the nurse knows that Joy has fever & ulcer, she instruct us try not to touch the toys at the clinic. When one mummy heard that, she keep on looking at us with a worried face, so i got to bring Joy out of the clinic so as not to cause panic to that mummy. Lucky doctor say its not HFMD.

Joy has been moody these few days due to the big ulcer, did not talk & eat solid food as it is hurting her :( She clings on to me like a koala bear, refuse to let me eat, refuse to let me carry Zoey & refuse to let ah gong, ah ma & sometimes papa to carry her. To cheer her up, i went to the mkt & buy bubbles for her to play. She was so happy & started to talk finally. Money well spent :)

Zoey had fever since yesterday. Highest temp is 38. something. She vomitted once at the clinic & another time at hme. Doctor says the fever will last 3 to 4 days. She still having slight fever now.

Hope my gals will recover soon & be stronger.
