As per our usual weekend escapades, we usually end up at Vivocity. Why there? Coz its Ryan's favourite mall n there's lots of shops n things 2 see. There's also Giant, where we usually stock up on Fudin's (my nephew) baby fruit juice for my sis, so its killing many birds wif one stone, if u will.

Ryan loves the "sprouting" water feature in the front of Vivo n of course he looovveeessss the kids wading pool at the top of the mall. Here are some pics to show his sheer happiness ...

Here's some pics of Ryan, wif his favourite Kakak at Vivo (again? haha!). After that we went 2 see the pack of parrots at Demsey Road but unfortunately they were in their cages so it wasn't that fun nor upfront. Its obvious Ryan enjoyed that day coz he had Ayra 2 play wif him. I guess being an only child makes him a very lonely kid. Its clear that he enjoys company, especially at playtime.

Trying 2 upload the vid of them wading in the pool. Hope it goes through ... They were cute but very naughty... n very wet!!!

Today I finally found some time 2 update my blog. I have lots of "backlog 2 clear" ... 2 put it simply I've been caught up wif real life 2 have the time 2 update on my life ... haha that sounds ironic isn't it. Ok here goes ... an update of whats been happening the past few weeks after Hari Raya.

1st n formost the house visits 2 my brother's place n my family visiting our house the following week. We had our usual makan sessions n merry making. As usual, when we all gather its a riot n kids aplenty, but thats what I look forward 2 every year. As the years pass, its incredible how the kids have grown older, bigger n taller. Now that Ryan has joined the gang of rugrats, its simply a joy 2 see him growing up wif his cousins.

Hari Raya this year was a simple affair but I realised that even the simplest n "cheapest" ways can create good memories for us. I vow 2 instill in my son n family, simple traditions n activities that will be remembered in years to come. Hopefully when my son's older he will look back on those days wif fond memories.

Some pics of the gathering at our place ... note 2 hubby : u didn't get many nice shots lah!

Well thats the end of merry making for the year of 2008 Hari Raya. Next year I wil try 2 get better pics n vids. Hope everyone enjoyed themselves!

My sis asked me the other day .. "Eh! U never updated your blog?" Errr ... no time lah!

Ok ok, it's a lame excuse. After saying that I will take lots of pictures n stuff (which I did) for the blog, I'm kinda bogged down wif stuff. With Hari Raya visitings n outings, home viewings, weekend expeditions, running of errands, grocery shopping, cooking n cleaning, falling sick (both me n Ryan) n of course taking care of my two boys, I have but little time left to rest, much less any time for myself. Hhhm ... but I hope 2 find the time soon, 2 update some of the new pics n vids.

Well, time 2 go n have my dinner (of buns). Can u imagine, its a Sunday evening n we r home soooo early. Haha ... well life is full of the unexpected.
