Laid with pasta sauce, ham, crab sticks and sprinkled with grated cheese
Put in the oven of 180Âșc
Done!
After cuts
Since both of my sons love pizzas, I always loaded my fridge with ready grated cheese, tortilla wraps, Bolognese sauce, hams, sausages, crab sticks and etc, so that I could quickly bake some pizzas as and when I want to.
The thin crust pizzas are crispy and is not filling at all, is rather a snack for them. I love to see when they enjoy eating my bake & cook.
I'll definitely will find more time to do more simple snacks to feed their stomach. :)
Espresso in the morning
Lack of sleeps for couple nights already, needing an espresso to cheer my morning.
Given double shots for David, and both mom and I had single shot. But after the whole day long, the coffee didn't anyhow kill my tiredness and sleepiness too. Is either my body has immune to coffee or my body is simply overly tired. :(
Chef of the day
Brownies were done
David decided to bake brownies for Mother's Day celebration tomorrow. Assisted him to make it happened. The outlook might not be perfect, but it does smell good. Too hot to taste now, and too sleepy to wait to taste. Let's wait for tomorrow.
MY met his cousin yesterday. Told him to kiss her, and here's how he acted.
Never expect he would kisses her on her lips, and funny thing was ZX was waiting quietly for him to kiss her. Lolx. That was how she lost her first kiss to MY.
Start to believe inheritance is exist. Mr. C and I both love hot and spicy foods, and now ... MZ loves hot and spicy too. At only 3 1/2, he could even finish a pack of Penang White Curry Noodle with full spices.
He started runny nose half way eating it, but he insisted want to finish it. I probably need to rethink shall we pack some to Italy. :D
MZ school's project - Banana Biscuits.
It smelled great, and tasted not bad, but I think it was a little bit undercooked. The flour tastes were too strong, it will definitely tastes better if bake for another 5 mins - and looks more golden colour.
I've seen how people addicted on gadgets, not only children, but all human beings, are holding gadgets all the times.
When you go dining, people rather texting, gaming or chatting on the phone rather than communicate with the one who is dining with you. You will also see parents letting their children to watch tablets or phones just to shut them up and have them sit aside and stay quiet.
As for me, I've known how electronic devices condemn people. I, myself had once addicted to computers in my earlier age, and that made me giving up all my talents and hobbies such as guitar playing and painting. I am regretting till today, and thinking to keep it back someday.
Hence, I want my sons to stay away devices as much as they could and only use it when they are needed to. I do not afraid my sons are lagging in using devices, but I am only afraid they would miss their beautiful and precious childhood. I would rather they spend times learning painting, piano, drama, sports - whatever they love to, than eying on devices all the time.
Of course to be a model, I don't use gadget in front of them, except phone and computer while I am working from home. I usually use them after they sleep, that's my self time.
Let's working for brighter tomorrow for the children! Stay away from devices!!!!!
Life's frustrating when people around you couldn't even bother to share and cope some of your responsibilities, for example:
When you have done loads of house works - shower kids, feeds kids, laundries, cleaning, but you see your spouse is still sleeping until 12pm everyday.
When your family members smell the odour of overnight diapers, and they have decided to close the toilet's door instead of helping you to dump in the garbage bin outside the house.
When you have to cope up all the cleaning works, and the rest of the people is dirtying it.
When your mom is suppose to cook for the family, but she is late preparing dinner. While you are expecting her to cook for all, she is telling you because you prefer spending time shopping than preparing porridge for your son.
When you have all your things hanging, but people do not want to give you a certain answer.
It's 0810, my two boys still sleep safe and sound. That's a rare scenario, as the younger one always wakes up around 7am. This morning seems like a bonus to me, as I could still have some spare time to blogging. :D
Ever since being a mother of two, my routine has changed. Waking up at 6-7am is being set as waking time, I have never used an alarm clock since then, they are my best alarm clock ever. Forget about getting enough sleeps, I've been sleeping less than 5 hours each night, with the night feeding (usually twice, sometimes could have more).
I super hate those people who could have time to sleep but refusing to go to bed. That's such a waste.
Opssss... He is waking up now. Time to serve him. :}

The last time I came to Genting was at least 2 years ago when MZ was about the age of MY now. We didn't even managed to overnight, because MZ was having diarrhea that time.
This time we are staying in Awana Genting, 20 mins away from First World Hotel, mainly because Mr. C was going for tee off. Surprising this hotel is in fact much better than all other hotels up on the hill, and they even have free shuttle bus every hour to transport house guests to go First World Hotel and to come down hill.
We are staying at the club suite with a nice layout (pictures above) and comfortable with golf course view. I would rate the hotel 4.5 out of 5. I would choose to come back this hotel if coming to Genting in future. :)
MZ spotted 2 Lamborghinis at the main entrance and so excited to take photos with them.

Overall, we have had a pleasant stay here.
My face on the 9th day
I didn't touch up my face, this is how my skin looks like after day 8 of post treatment. Better skin tones and radiance with minimal bumps (last treatment focused on bigger bumps), except a new acne on my forehead due to sleeping late recently.
I am so darn looking forward a better skin texture, and I would ensure I use the facial care products everyday.
Bruise on MY's forehead
That's one most important thing that has change a mother's life after being a mother that you will treat your children are you 'properties' - including every inch of their body. A single cut or bruise on their body will have a cut in your heart too. That's how I feel, not sure about other mothers out there.
MY fell from staircase today, from only 1 step. He has this big bruises on his forehead. I've tried my best to massage the bruises and flatten it soonest possible I could. It works! It has flatten, but the blue black hasn't gone yet. You probably won't understand how I wish I could suffer the pains for him. My poor son! Hope this bruises won't stay any longer.
Boba Air Baby Carrier
I once hate to use a baby carrier, I've thought that it must be very heavy to carry baby on front or back. I had once borrowed a Bjorn baby carrier from a friend to test, and it sucks. It was not only bulky, it also didn't ventilate air, making both baby and mom sweating and not comfortable. Plus, the belts only be able to adjust the max, but it was still too low for me. Since then, I have even very impression on baby carrier, and thought I would never use it again.
Until our plan to relocate to Italy is confirmed, I was doing some planning and thought it might be easier for me to have carrier to carry MY instead of strolling him, when I walk MZ to school. Additional, we might not even have a stroller there too.
So, I read up many reviews from the web, and finally decided to go for Boba Air instead of Ergo.
After the first time I test drive on MZ, I immediately fall in love in it. It is so lightweight, and could fold as a small pouch and dump in the car, or in the nursery bag, which I could reach for it whenever I want to. It could carries up to 20kg, I have carried either of my sons before. The material is made by nylon, I wouldn't say baby won't sweat at all, but the sweating part mostly only at the baby's back. Other than that, both of them happy in the carrier and feel comfortable - for both front and back carry.
Front carry
Back carry
There are manual teaching instructions on how to carry on the back, but there are video posts on youtube.com showing how. So, I've learnt from youtube.com, and find it is very convincing and easy too.
For a price of RM200, I would say it is a great investment I've made, as I am using it whenever I am bringing my sons out. My younger son is 16 months, and older son is 3 years 5 months.
I don't reckon whether Boba gives any suggestion ages on his products, but it definitely not suitable for baby less than 3 months. It supports baby with head could stay upright better.
For mother who loves shopping and travelling like me, I would say Boba Air suits you 100%.
My face after use of Derma-X
It marks the 7th day post treatment. The laser burning marks are gone, mostly. After the use of Derma-X product for a week, I spotted some changes on my face - my pores are getting smaller and my face shows radiance now.
Honestly, I have never like my face so much like I do now - at least within these couple of years. Now, I truly understand why most women will turn splotchy and untidy when they have become a mother, particularly mother who has 2 or more children. The truth is, it is definitely not due to the laziness, it is due to lack of time. When there is any available slot, we tends to pick up the time to do own things e.g. writing blog (like what I do now - I write when the kids sleep), house chores, laundry, pay bills online, and probably gain some naps.
There are so many things to take care of in a day:
On demand - breastfeeding the child
2 x per day - soothing children to sleep
2 x per day - bathing children
3 x per day - Prepare meals for children
Laundry includes putting clothes in washing machine (some hand wash), dry them up under the sun, keep the clothes, folding the clothes and placing them in the wardrobe
Cleaning includes mopping floor (cut to once a week, if possible), 6 x toilets (on-demand), 5 x room cleaning (when free), changing of beddings (once a month), cabinets, work top, kitchen and so on.........
Out of all the above, the last thing we will have time to think of is our own appearance. We can't be dressed up elegantly to do house chore, right?
The summary is - it is not easy to be a mother, and it is definitely not easy to become a woman.
Hence, a little retreat to myself on the face treatment. Hopefully, it will takes a longer while for the skintex to come back, and Derma-X will address all my skin issues. Wish me luck!
Looks cool in this tricycle
He insisted the bigger tricycle
The duo was hardcore playing at the Hamleys this afternoon, skipping their nap too. Unfortunately, we have second round - a wedding dinner to attend this evening, they can't go to bed early too.
While we are on the way home, here's why happened:
Felt asleep almost immediately in his car seat
Felt asleep right after MY slept
Let them take a short nap before we reach home. We could only take a quick shower and have to head out in no time.
Day 4 - Post Treament
Marks are fading now on the day 4. Suppose to hide up myself these few days for not showing my marks in public. But turned out the other way. I'd exposing myself to others everyday. After all, I don't really mind and care how people think of me. Lolx.
Vegetable Omelet
The 4th cooking for MZ in his cooking class - omelet with the mixed vegetable of french beans, carrots, green peppers and onions.
It became additional dishes for our dinner tonight. MZ even said it tasted good, and this is the first dishes he cooked and he had it. :D
Day 3 - Post Treatment
The marks are drying off, and not so significant now. Hopefully will be dropping in no time.
