Sitting and Waiting

Bryan woke up shortly before 0630hrs I reckon and came charging into our room. I guess I'd better not fall asleep again just in case I miss my 7am alarm. Too lazy to prepare breakfast so I just nuked some fried rice and had a cuppa. Poor Derrick couldn't sleep peacefully cos Bryan would launch into his crocodile wrestling mode in bed.
Well, the Church beckons. Who else is playing the keyboard at Mass today? After mass, picked up some pulut inti and some grub for lunch. Yum!
Since it's Sunday, the kids only have 1 thing on their minds... SWIMMING! Yesterday, short of swim teachers, so ganti lain hari. I would want to go swimming too but my blardy ulcer far too damn big and painful to even even kena water. So instead of paddling in the pool having fun, I am doing what kiasu moms do, setting pass year exam questions for Cait.
In case you were wondering why such a long winded entry, waiting for 2 hours to pass while keeping 1 eye on the kids at the pool. The gym here looks so empty too.. not too many gym buffs here... How I wish I could just nip in for a while...

Brekkie Central

Every morning, I wake up at 6.30am to fix brekkie, pack the kids' lunches, bags, make my own brekkie and if possible, eat it, before 7am. Because that's when the kitchen and dining area become chaos central. ABove is just the gist of the breakfast that I churn out every morning. Sometimes I want to pull my hair out too cos I don't want them to have the same breakfast everyday, so it's 6 different breakfasts per week... Sunday, by 8.15am, I berambus already to Church, so that one, Derrick kau teem. I no eye see.

Ice Ice Baby!

Look at his cheeky face!

I have a little freezer which I store ice cream and other treats in the kitchen. And the kids are used to raiding it once a day for dessert. Most often than now, they'd close the door properly and sometimes, they do fail to close it properly. So what happens leh? Ice ice everywhere lor. So last week, I decided to defrost the freezer after brekkie and Bryan had a great time playing with "snow". This is just one of the shavings scooped out.. there was a good 6-7 containers full of ice!

Bryan Cousteau

Bryan has always loved marine life, land and sea animals. At home, he'd pretend to be a diver and empty out my clothes peg holder and wear it over his head like the headgear and put the hook into his mouth like the mouth piece. So dangerous! You can actually see the hook just below his right arm. I don't know if you can see it at the following pic... He actually would put the entire hanger-hook into his mouth ... Everytime I see him, aiyo, I'd drop whatever I'm doing and get that thing off him.

LapTop's on The Fritz

Either my laptop's having an off day or something is seriously mingin today with the internet connection. Anyway, it's Caitlyn's turn to have a Pupil-Free day while Bryan had his yesterday, so we had a bit of a girly mini shopping trip at a nearby shopping center.

The kids are crazy over their version of "Baby-Cino"... I just whip up either iced-milo or iced-chocolate milk with some ice cubes and they love it!
