Addition to our family

It's minutes past midnight, my son is sound asleep and here I am, enjoying the quietness and the peacefulness. Blogging without any distraction from the world. In a few months more, with the arrival of my baby girl, I'm sure I won't have the time to blog at midnight. Even if I can, I'm not sure whether I can stay up till midnight. I might have knocked out at 8 pm every night. Having a baby to take care of, I'm sure that'll take up almost all my time, 24/7. But nevertheless, I'm glad I'm having another baby soon. I'm sure my heart will have the capacity to accommodate and to love another little angel God has for me and my family. Can't wait for your arrival, darling baby girl.

Wedding planning

In less than 199 days, my beloved twin sister will be walking down the aisle with the love of her life. I'm so happy that she'll finally be getting married, having been together with her fiance for so many years. All wedding planning are under way, with her wedding gown being tailor made, her flower girl dresses being altered, the dinner banquet confirmed, everything is almost in place.

They are not planning on taking studio wedding photos because they have a far better plan in mind, that is to Bali for their pre-wedding shots. How romantic is that? Bali is a perfect place to capture memories, the architecture, the beach, the scenery, the people and weather, everything. What beats the fond memory of walking by the beach at sunset, or a romantic candle light dinner in a real Balinese place? No wonder so many people would rather spend a lot of money to get married elsewhere, the idea of the destination weddings is so very common nowadays.

But nevermind, for us married couples, there's always a chance to go honeymoon, even years after you got married, as long as the love is there, it'll always be as romantic I'm sure.

Shaklee Multi Purpose Herbal cream


Since birth, I've been using this cream on my then baby for mossie bites, dry skin and rashes but I heard this cream works magic on nappy rashes too. My son loves it from day one, for every time I apply it on him, his mosquito bites itchiness goes away. I guess so, because he'll immediately stop scratching. Since I'll be expecting baby no.2 in a few months time, I think it'll be better for me to buy a new tube of this cream ( cos the one I have right now did not have expiration date on it). I personally like the texture and the smell of the cream, it's so soothing. When applied, it has a minty and fresh feel to it. Best of all, it's not at all sticky.

Have you seen fishes like that?


When we were in Rumah Mode, the most famous shopping outlet in Bandung, these fishes captured our attention way before the clothes do. This pond is located just outside of Rumah Mode and from far we can see that the fishes jump out of water just to get food.

Seriously, I've never seen hungry fishes like that. They can even suck your finger if you let them, and yes they do not have any teeth. Normally fishes shy away from human, but boy these fishes love attention. And food obviously!

PGP in second pregnancy

23 weeks pregnant and feeling the pain on my lower back and buttock is now a normal thing I have to deal with. Even as early as week 10 into this pregnancy, I already had this pain. My OB-GYN said to me that it's normal for some pregnancy women to experience this pain. It's called Pelvic Girdle Pain, it is thought that this softening, along with postural changes, muscle weakness and differences in the movement occurring between the left and right pelvic joints can cause too much stress on the joints, ligaments and muscles of the pelvis. The worst thing is this pain will not go away as the pregnancy progress but in fact it will worsen. OH MY!

I also found out that the pain is usually made worse by lying on the back, turning over in bed, walking and standing from a sitting position. It is often worse at night and the degree of night pain is probably be related to how active one is during the day.

This is so true in my case, I got to refrain from lying down on my bed when I sleep, a sudden twist and turn will sent sharp pain through my legs and back. Sometimes when I walk too much, my butt hurts really badly. I'm hoping this pain will go away after pregnancy and everything will be back to normal. I'm sure walking with a rollator is not as fun as it looks. I need the freedom to run, jump and walk about.

Mini Gas Tanks

When you're in a foreign country, you'll sure get to experience some cultural shock, be it a good or a bad. And in Bandung, a place where the people still lacks a lot of necessities, or should I say, luxuries in life, sometimes life can be harsh on them.

In Malaysia, you'll only get to see huge gank tank for domestic use, but there in Indonesia, these gas tanks are the most common. We saw it everywhere we go. Every push cart vendor or food stall has one. It's so mini in size isn't it?



Pregnant women are clumsy eater

Even with my first pregnancy, I noticed that pregnant woman or is it just me, tends to be clumsy when it comes to eating. I stained my tops so very often, even more as the pregnancy progress. Logically thinking, a pregnant woman has a bulging tummy, and therefore they tend to sit further away from the table and having to bend forward to eat. Maybe so, we pregnant women really do get clumsy and dirty.

Well, that's my theory. What do you think? Anything you want to share on this?

We're back from Bandung

So here I am, poorer but a lot happier and satisfied, with a, a few dozen more new clothes to wear. Crazy isn't it? Just like bullion, one can never spend too much on clothes and accessories. Well, the fact is bullion gives outstanding investment return, given the current economic situation and the soaring price of bullion, no doubt bullion is a far better investment. Shopping gives temporary satisfaction but does no good to your bank account, I should know better before I indulged in the shopping therapy. Be wiser next time, buy gold instead.

This time around, I didn't really buy all that many clothes for myself, a pregnant woman don't need so many extras to wear, after all a pregnancy only last 9 months, and mine at 23 weeks, I only have 120 days to go. Yippie.


I bought so many new baby girl clothes, cannot resist not buying them as those little dresses, little pants and baby rompers are just too cute, and cheap too. I also got many new tees and pants for Shern and Marcus, and surprisingly, this time around Shern's clothes size is more or less about Marcus size. Shern is 3.6 years old and Marcus is almost 7 years old but I can fit both of them in either a size 6/7.

Shern's daddy didn't tag along, this trip is all about shopping and all of us sisters leave our husband back home, who need them to stress us up when we're shopping, keep them at home, this way everyone is happy. LOL.

Super cute hairclip for babies




Oh, ain't these cute? Or super cute maybe? I came across these baby clips on the Internet, on a handmade stuffs website. Clips
are normally sold in a pack of 3, or per clip and not pet set. I mean won't it be better if it comes in a pair? Then I'm sure it'll look super cute to clip it on babies with two ponytails. Well, maybe that's the sales gimmick. It comes in a set on 3 different clips, so if you want it in pair, then you got to purchase 2 sets of it. Ain't these people clevever in making money? I think so!

I'm loving grey grey grey..


Suddenly, just like that, I'm a big fan of grey! Oh, see how gorgeous these rooms are. The color grey and white is just so soothing to the eyes. Looking at it, I'm starting to hate my green walls. I don't know whether this is the pregnancy talking, what people call it nesting, but I sure feel like I could do with some nice changes around the house to make way for the baby.

You know, repaint the walls (at least I don't go for pink which I'm sure the hubs would forbid), do with some nice new furnitures around the house or simply chucking out old stuffs. But I'm sure I'm going to include a lot of grey tones in my upcoming home projects. Watch out!
