Happy Valentine’s Day

 The Valentine aisle in the Dollar store was EMPTY. In fact they had Easter stuff out already. I wandered over to the wedding aisle and saw these cute white boxes. 12 in a pack and for a dollar,thought not cheap but would work. Ashwina found the foam stickers and we were set. $28 later, I [...]

Merry Christmas

Its 15 mins to 1a/m and I am up finishing NK’s wine. The babies are sleeping, the spouse is asleep, the presents wrapped and the room somewhat empty.
I dont know how the kids are going to react tomorrow. Apparently Neil wanted a DS and in his words”Santa is going to bring me one because I [...]

The Spirit of The Season

Apparently, NK coming back equals to less blogging time. I don’t know how but it does. I have been busy,so busy my sisters asked why wasn’t I signed onto chat. So busy, I haven’t worked out in 3 weeks and counting. So busy that I haven’t taken a single daily outfit picture. (The weather has [...]

*Day 4/Halloween Parade

Has it only been 4 days since NK left? It feels like so much longer. Today was extremely busy day, with Halloween parties in the school, followed by a parade and then trick n treating at a nearby mall place. It was fun but tiring. The kids all came home and slept by 7.45p/m.
FIL update, [...]

Diwali 09

Diwali to NK means mithai and fireworks. Diwali to me means my mom’s murruku, kueh tart, getting ang pao from relatives. Buying new clothes, mum will sew new curtains, new cushion covers. Day of diwali, we wear our new suits and wait for our friends to come. My mum will cook chole bhature and samosas [...]

I bought this shirt from a church rummage sale. Fill a box with $2. I literally threw things which were a [...]

Rakhi 09

 When I found out my 3rd child was a boy, I was happy that my girls would have a brother to tie rakhi to. Growing up in Singapore, we tied to my male cousins and thats it(one of them is Deeepu who comments here.Happy rakhi to you lah). I always try and make Rakhi a [...]

Stuff

The new banner head is from Sunday. All of us were under the comforter with a flashlight. NK told each of the kids to say 4 good things about someone and 1 bad thing.  Everyone did it except Samar obviously.
Neil: Ashwina is good  because she gives me hugs. She read to me. She switches on Nick [...]

Handmade Ornaments

MM had a post about her tree decorating. And since I couldnt think of anything else to blog. I decided to post pictures of the handmade ornaments the kids have made over the past 3 years. Samar was pretty upset, he went around the whole tree looking for his picture/ornament. Since he doesnt go to school [...]

The Tree

I wasnt sure whether we were going to get a tree. Yesterday while unpacking one of  Neil’s boxes(yes its been a month and there are still boxes lying around), I found our Christmas ornaments.  I made my mind to get a tree this weekend. With the entire gang. But this afternoon after my workday at the co-op [...]
