Activities for Rowena

I am thinking of starting some group activities for Rowena, but havent quite decided on it yet. The options right now are Musikgarten, Gymboree and Kidsportz. I am also looking at other factors like the timing and location. The teacher is also important as a good teacher can make a lousy class very exciting and vice versa. Time to go exploring!

I signed up for PPP!



I started blogging about 2 years ago when my eldest daughter was 18 months old. The main intention was to share about her developments, antics and also a good opportunity to post pictures of her so friends and family can share the experience with me. It wasn’t until early this year that I decided to start blogging for money. As Payperpost puts it, ‘get paid for blogging about the things you love’.

I have made many new friends in the blogging community and most of them have signed up with Payperpost and have earned a good salary through this. They wake up early in the morning to check if there are any new opportunities available to them and quickly grab them. Their enthusiasm and eagerness is really remarkable. Some of the opportunities offered are issues really close to their hearts like shopping, education and movies.

I was truly amazed at how much you can earn just by writing a simple review. All you need is to have a blog. Sign up with Payperpost and blog about the things you love.The more you write, the more you can earn. How easy is that? Since the money earned will be sent through Paypal, I intend to spend them on Ebay and get loads of stuff for my girls.

It’s just great – everything can be done at my computer. I write with Payperpost, get paid, shop online and the stuff gets sent to me. Traffic jams and long queues are a thing of the past.

I miss Harvynna


pics taken on Fathers day in June at Victoria Station

Harvynna followed my parents back to Melaka last Wednesday, so its just me, Hubs and Rowena. The house is extremely quiet, not to mention the car rides every morning and evening. NOrmally, Harvynna will be chatting away, singing and entertaining me in the car. Now, the car is so quiet that I had to buy some new CDs to entertain myself.


The first few days were tough as Rowena used to cry her heart out in the car (I think she was missing the sister). But thanks to this new CDs I got, she keeps quiet and doses off within minutes. Hehe - its some oldies CD with the likes of The Platter, Ben E king etc. Either the songs totally bore her or it soothing to her ears.


Rowena is also sooooo clingy at home. The moment she does not see me, she cries and wails like nobody's business. Normally, when I put them to bed, she sleeps off within 20 minutes , but now she refuses to sleep. Even after she has closed her eyes, she can sense if I wake up and she willl wake up too. I have caught her peeking at me with just one eye open, they goes back to sleep (like reassuring herself I am still there)


Somehow I think, she knows that her sister is not there and does not know where she is. As such, she has a fear, that we might disappear too. So she really cries if she does not see us. Poor thing. I thought I can get a lot of things done since Harvynna is not here, but boy, was I wrong. That happy go lucky little baby has turned into a cry baby cling-on!!!


Harvynna seems to be having a good time, though, when I speak to her on the phone, she is so loving. She just says, 'mummy. mummy in the sweetest voice' The other day, She said 'mummy, I want to go home. Mummy, can you please come and take me home'. I told her I will pick her up during the weekend and she said,'no, I want to go now' and I felt really bad.


Anyway, to drown my sadness, I have gone on various shopping sprees to Mothercare, IKEA, Kids Oasis and Zara. hehe. As for daddy, if I ask him whether he misses Harvynna, he will say 'Who's that????'!!

Splish Splash at Andalucia





This is a backdated post

We brought the girls for a swim at Brendan & Ameta's place. It was the last weekend before they move out to their new house at taman desa. Much nearer to us now.

The girls had so much fun in the baby pool. Harvynna kept jumping into the pool. The kids pool is nice as it is not too shallow, yet her feet can touch the floor. I think the arm floats are really great as it does not limit kids movements as compared to the ring float.

Baby Asha had her first swim and seemed to enjoy it as well.

It was a late night and the girls were so knackered. The only thing was Harvynna broke Brendan's favourite light in his study. Poor guy - he really loved that light, though Ameta and I find that light cheap and tacky!!

Cover My Travels

Getting a travel insurance for the whole family can be a tricky task as many insurance companies have strict policies and exclusions. People with a history of medical conditions have an even harder time as these insurance companies are very selective on these potential customers.

With CoverMyTravels, the travel insurance for every occasion, you can be rest assured that a good policy is within reach. They have a wide range of policies to suit your need. The good news is that age concern travel insurance is now a thing of the past as all Annual travel insurance policies have an upper age limit of 70 years old, while Single Trip insurance policies can be taken by those up to the age of 79. How great is that?

It even covers hazardous activities at no extra cost. These activities include scuba diving, water skiing and sailing. CoverMyTravels’s website is very comprehensive and you will be able to get all your impotant information at the click of a button.

Its my birthday!!

Yay! It's my birthday today. I am 3x years old!! Haha - you are only as old as you think you are. I had a new temp staff come in today and she said' ooh, so you will celebrate your birthday with your boyfriend today!' I was like 'huh'?

Probably go out for dinner with my hubby and have a teeny cake to cut with the girls! Harvynna told me she will give me barbie doll stickers. Last time, before the girls were born, Hubby will send flowers to the office, now hmmm...... All my colleagues were asking me, 'hey - no flowers this year ah!

It was kind of nice, my boss belanja lunch today, and some of my close friends at the office gave me chocolates with a card that had really sweet wordings. Best of all, I get to celebrate it with my 2 beautiful girls
