my kitchen helper

there she goes sitting down on her "helping spot". Every time after we finished the mess seems to accumulate around that spot.

My little princess, can't believe she's so grown up. love her to bits.

Sorry about the slack on posting blogs. Life has been so full on with moving country. Golly gosh! and it's not easy being apart from the hubby (who seems to pick up my slack during wedding season big time quite immensely)

rain rain go away // Gold Coast family photography

day 15 // playing in the rain

ok. i am totally bad at this project.

i'm missing day 13 and 14... i'm sure i was pretty much cleaning the house then. the whole 2 days. cleaning and washing. yes yes.... endless amount of washing to be fold.

the new little pet.

her name is Jelly and she's got a little pink tutu and a tiara. She prawls and she chuuu when you pet her nose or head. Thank you aunty Kelly for the bestest Pet ever!!! *the one that doesn't die....

Until now, Tavé still thinks that our little fish is still at the hospital and being mended by the doctor until after the new year. sigh... bless her little cotton socks off....

Ballerina party

Tavé's 3rd birthday party... was in the midst of non stop rain week in the Gold Coast... so we cancel the park and had it in a lovely indoor none other than my church... Revolution Church. bless....

Such a fun morning filled with mini ballerinas (well, i did wear my tutus... and it JUST fit me with a few stretch noise here and there when i put it on... yes i had no shame), lots of cupcakes, pretty castle cake, face painting, cool bunting decoration which Pauline and I made at 11.30pm the night before... lots n lots of dancing of course... we had fun!!!!

thought i'd share with you the morning of it... and thank you everyone who contributed to make it such a special morning... and to everyone who came. ohhhh, don't you love the cake made by Elizabeth?! can NOT believe you're only 14! pretty fairies who did face painting plus Brooke, and thank you so much for the ribbon wands, pinwheels and pearls! xo

Happy birthday, Tavé!!!!

trip to the hair dresser

ok confession time... I might have cut Tavé's hair before... *slightly crooked... nonetheless... we have made it to a proper hairdresser, who generously told me where to line her hair and give few tips here and there.

I could be a children hairdresser now after all those knowledge.... maybe? not.
I should stick to my camera i think... and take pictures such as "first time at the hairdresser" moments and share it with you all. hehe.

ps. I do wish the hairdresser would spray my hair with glitter after she's done Tavé's...

jingle bell.. jingle bell... jingle all the way

ooohhhh i so love christmas time! all the food, the presents, the pretty lights, the fun and the laughter... so love my little family. one thing i don't enjoy in december though... the heat!!! arghhhh!!!! the worst ever! 3 weeks to go baby! i'm definitely praying for an early labour...

i have spent 2 years of white Christmas in Canada back in the days and i don't think there's any better than rugging up while you smell the cinnamon around the house infront of the fire place... yummm...
but.... nothing beats the warmth of your own family! lovessss it.
oh, check out what i made for christmas eve! chocolate pavlova! my first pavlova ever!!!! quite a big success considering i nearly burnt the motor of my mixer. haha.

christmas morning after presents opening, i cooked a pancake and served them with blueberries. yum yum my tummy say... and Merry Christmas everyone!

this little cafe i love

have you been to Vintage Espresso?
that little cafe is sooo chic and we so love going there for an afternoon delight.
Especially around this pregnancy, i so can't help but going there all the time and request my one and only salami bagel! ahhhhhh such divine! My mouth is watering already thinking and talking about it.
I just want to memorate this moment and scream it to the world... I LOVE VINTAGE!!!!!
i do love u too, Andrew and Jodie! so mucho! you have done well to the world by birthing this cafe for ppl to indulge! hmmmm.....

xoxo

ps: do you love Tave's vintage face? that's an obvious evidence that she's been to Vintage!

6months wellness checkup

and here it is today... again.
she's losing weight apparently. sigh. so that just means that i have to go to check her again in 2 weeks (please put on weight little one! please!!!!)
and i learnt that babies tend to be clingy to you more when they're around 6 months. (that is so right! wow)
so my princess wasn't happy afterwards either and so we're just chillin, watching the sun shinning, and enjoy a moment of... 'selah'

hardest decision ever!

wowza! this is my first blog ever! and i never blogged anything before. so proud of myself.
anyhow. where should i start?

i just learned from karen last night something about my camera and i've been practising it! grrr it kinda annoys me. i suppose it's all practise isn't it?
so anywho. this is one of the one that i came up with

mehehehe yes that's my girl! today she is... 5 months and 15 days!
and i'm still thinking when's the best time to start her on solid. la la la
