This was captured by a friend without my notice...me look so fat and "chan"...

These photos reminded me the perfect moments we had for the past one year with a precious given to us.

Do not think how much $$$ you have spent on your kids, how much sacrifices you have made....You should think how much joy and love your kids have brought to you and this definitely priceless gift......

BB sitter plans go on tour!~~~

Yesterday my baby sitter asked if I can take 6 days off from work?She wishes to go on tour to Beijing....it will be an 8 days tour including weekend.
OMG!At this kind of critical moment,going for holidays....some more need me to burn my annual leaves, no way, man!
I did not reject her directly, i said to her.."i need to think and made necessary arrangement..bla...bla..."to buy time, will give my answer to her in a day or two. Right after i left baby sitter house,mum's of another baby called me on this issue, we both decided to say "NO". Good, at least i got one companion now :P
Then second day,baby sitter asked me about the decision,i gave her a beautiful answer, which i think it was....hee..hee...
See below:

BB sitter:"Can get leave ah?"
Me :"Can not loh, my boss said next quarter company might need to shut down,
so i have to save my annual leave just in case they annouced shut down!"
"Now situation very bad,do not know when i will be retrenched ler,"
"You got any friend can help to take care Gary for a week? If can find
some one to cover one week, i think it's fine for you to go tour"
BB sitter :"Really ah, so bad meh.....xx's mother also same thing loh, she also
can not get her leave approved, think i have to cancel the plan lah"
Me :"Ya, now not a very good time loh,maybe year end is better"
BB sitter :"Ya loh..ya loh"

Wah...me relief.....this thing haunted me 2 days ler, got sleepless nite some more.Luckily she cancel her plan..Phew~~~....

This baby sitter of mine is not the best i have seen,she is taking care 3 babies at the same time,including Gary. But it's not so easy to change as Gary was there since he was 2 months old, everything seems ok, just the minor thing will happened sometimes like Bb sitter want to on leave a day lah...hygene not really superb lah...Not giving full attention to my baby lah...etc...

Poo daddy asked me to tolerate for another year, when Gary is more than 2 years old or maybe 2.5 years old, we can send him to nursery, then he will have a lot of friends to paly with.Also, people said baby can learn faster in nursery.

Want to see how my litte Poo eat apple? He refuse to get the bite size apple from me, he wants to eat an apple as a whole...he thinks he is just an adult like me :)

Healthy diet- Biogreen or Herbalife?

I have been taking Herbalife products for dieting and slimming purpose,i started since Nov 08, my weight went down about 3kg.At first i'm quite reluctant to go for replacement meal, but i'm used to it after a while. it's better to have nutricious and yet low calory meal than skipping meal.

Now i discover another range of organic replacement is in the market and the not so costly :) >>> Biogreen You may check this out...taste not bad too.

To obtain a better result in loosing weight, i seriously agree to have balance diet plus exercise. I tried to control my diet in order to loose weight.Ya, the weight gone down from the beiginning, but get saturated very fast...it's more effecive to loose weight with control diet + exercise.

Pressure cooker

Last Saturday was my first experience with pressure cooker.We wanted to cook "Bak kut teh" and my sis-in law brought also the pressure cooker.I'm totally amazed with the power of pressure cooker.
Tell u what...I already fall in love with prssure cooker after first use.It's miraclely saved a lot of unnessary gas...and time...
We threw everything into the pot, then boiled it for 15 minutes...then off the fire.
kept in for another 15 minutes.
The smell of bak kut teh was so nice, the meat was so tender.
I will sure buy myself a pressure cooker one day...start surveying now, so far i see "Thermos" brand is the one i have shortlisted :)

I'm back....

My last post was weeks ago, guess i should report myself today. Reason of being silence are just busy+lazy, busy+lazy....busy+lazy...
I think i should shed away the laziness and cheer up myself to get back to writing.What i did lately? Many things...

Last weekend went back to Ipoh for "Ching Meng"-tombs sweeping.It is always fun despite of the hassle,a very good family get together activity. This year everyone participated except my younger brother who needs to work, but maintain the same headcount as we have recruited a new member- My sister in law :)
Little Gary stayed at home with his grandma,i couldn't bring him together...he is just too small for this. Wait till he is 3, then Poo daddy will carry him uphill to do tomb sweeping, looking forward to the day to come.

Jogging,i was quite into jogging lately,even utilising my lunch hour to run on treadmill. I jog mostly 2-3 times a week, like the sweating moment a lot...I enroled to Penang earth day run which going to be held on 19th April.This is the first time to participate in running event,wanted to join the crowd...see how good my stamina is..Hope i do not need the ambulance assistance la.LOL!

Work,still busy working days...plus i'm looking for some back up plans for myself in case i'm jobless.But it's kind of hard for me coz i can't risk myself to quit current job and venture into any business, i can only be a partimer for a start and if business run smoothly and stabily then i will only to consider to quit my job and full time on own business.But if i'm retrenched then no need to think twice but to go all out, right?

Poo BaoBao-Little Gary, he is getting more and more cheeky.Oh ya...my last post is about his reduced milk intake, now is getting a bit better, but i still feed him milk+cereal with his leftover milk.He learns everyday,talking his own baby language which i hardly undertand...hit it right with my best guess...haha..
1) He pointed tree then said "tee".
2) He said "ng ng", means he wants to poo.Ya my son knows how to tell wen he wants to poo.Good boy!
3) He said "mum mum" means he wants to eat
4) He pointed fish, said "fu..fu", he trying to say fish
5) He pointed duck, said "ah",it means he sees duck
6) He ponited flower,yet said "fu..fu" :)
7) He mumbles all the time....
8) He said "da..di" for daddy
9) etc...etc...
