 While waiting for the food, I put all the dirty diapers in the sink and soak/rinse it before doing the proper wash to the washing machine.Precaution: No softener and bleacher allowed!!

For us...Yummy, our neighbor gave this delicious dish to us yesterday. It's called Kao Chung(In Chinese).

"Thanks aunty, sedappppp!!" 

Frisbee

    Yesterday evening after pigging out on KFC for late lunch/early dinner, hubby decided that all of us should go out and play the newly bought frisbee. I thought we were just going to play in front of our house. 
While I was still sitting in front of the pc checking at Diaper Asia site( hoping to catch any mama who is selling  any new cute printed cloth diaper, hahaha lets not speak about my addiction for now, I will save it for another post!!)
Hubby was yelling from outside of the house asking me to go out as soon as possible..Ava was already buckled up in her stroller( I was wondering why hubby brought the stroller along, I thought we were just going to play in front of our house.)
I was still in my blouse and skirt, I went out and ready to play..(konon la, my mind was still on the forum site). Instead hubby told me to lock the house as we are going out. Going out!!! where? I was following them from behind and was thinking where were we going?Play frisbee in front of our neighbor house?By the way I passed one of our neighbor house and she was standing outside and was yelling at me with a smile,
"Your baby's face look just like her father already lor!!" 
Hehehe..yeahh she is!!Don't you love your neighbors?!:)..


Then I started to wonder where he want to take us when he crossed the road out from our neighborhood and went straight to the outside of school area ( our housing area is near to the school),. After reached at the end of the road just beside the school gate which I was already out of breath. He stopped and  started to throw the frisbee to me. Being a beginner on a frisbee, after I received it from hubby I threw it without aiming properly to him( plus I was still tired due on 15 minutes walking). The frisbee flew straight to the drain and we are not talking a small drain here..it was a flood drain it is so deep!! Hubby cannot blame me since he really didn't took a lot of effort to take the flying frisbee without expecting it to fell into the drain! 
Ava on the other hand enjoying the evening scenery and standing beside Bumble. After giving a second thought, hubby went down the drain and took the frisbee out and then figuring out how to get out from the drain .
"Here, give your hand to me," I said. Our hands reaching but Ava was nearly walking to the drain and I quickly let go my hand and he stumbled back inside the drain..
" Ops sorry! ."   
Put Ava back on the stroller and meanwhile hubby successfully climbed out from the drain.
The school guard who watched us from the beginning asked hubby to play at the school field. And all this while we thought outsider is not allowed to enter the school area!!
So off we walked towards the school field with lots of kids playing soccer and we found an empty ground to play the frisbee.                 Jumping, running,yelling, sweating and laughing at the same time when both of us throwing and catching frisbee made me so relief I got off on my knee to play on that evening. Plus watching Ava was getting so excited walking on the grass field really makes my day!She even yelled at us whenever we missed to catch the frisbee on our hand!!
Today we will be going out again to play and I bet this time around will be going to be merrier!!

Upgraded!

Ava's baby car seat has been upgraded to a toddler car seat. She loves her new seat. But....she has a few request whenever we put her on it. The teething biscuit ,a bottle of water and a singing mama( I bet now I am ready to go for the next audition of "Who Want To Be One Million..."err what's the name of the program again?)  , otherwise she'll be screaming asking to be out from her newly car seat.
Hubby was a bit concerned on Ava's safety every-time we went for a car ride. She didn't want to be place on her baby car seat anymore and ends up she would be walking and climbing around inside the car every-time we traveled. So we decided to solve it once for all by getting her the bigger car seat.

At first, she seemed to be a bit reluctant by sitting on her new seat.

By the time I sang her the 5th songs, she fell asleep with the biscuit still on her hand.

Fluffy Mail!!!

Another fluffy mail arrived this evening!!

I got so excited! It was from zizitots.blogspot.com. I ordered two pieces of Itti Bitti SIO since the site is having a Mega Sale. (Yeah before this I did say I was not into IB but just recently I noticed the diaper just fit perfectly on Ava slender thighs. She lost the baby fat due on walking.) 
After de-stashing  most of my pocket diapers and still in the process to let go a few more, I spent most of the funds for AI2 and Fitted diapers.

From the left row : Baby Beehind Petite Pink(mycheekyboo), Itti Bitti SIO in Baby Pink, Itti Bitti SIO in Purple( zizitots)and Pampered Cheek pocket OS(everythingbabything).

From the right row( All fitteds) : Monkeez purple(everythingbabything) , Oh Happy Baby(everythingbabything), Poverty Jane(everythingbabything) and Baby Beehind Night Nappy(mycheekyboo).

Beside the fitteds are the two pieces  of Mama Bear wool soakers OS.

I hope they will never find out on how did I get to cross the barrier they had made to prevent me to reach for the shoes compartment.ngeh ngeh ngeh."

"Here I go again after so many successful attempts!"

"Papa and mama are busy at the kitchen, the best time to climb up the couch ,hehehe!!!"

"Ok...take down the right leg first..need to be careful otherwise will fall down."

"Ugghhh!!Almost there....."

"Ok I am ready to jump,yeahhh,slipper here I come........perhaps I will taste daddy's shoes this time!!!"

"Ooppss!!caught red handed by mama!!I didn't notice mama was behind me the whole time and taking picture of me sneaking out!!"

"Here goes my new toys, no more chewing on shoes".(Sigh).

De-stashing my beloved Happy Heinys
