Aeroplane.....Big big

This is what Ee Shuen did when she mentioned, " Aeroplane, big big..."

Ee Shuen and Mummy at the pool

We were at the pool again this week. This round is mummy and ee shuen in the pool and daddy as the cameraman.


Look daddy I am floating.


More like hanging around by the pool side.

Sunrise at Sunrise Garden

While ee shuen and daddy were busy snoring away early on a saturday morning, mummy was busy tinkering away with the camera at the beautiful God's gift of sunrise.

Trip to KL - Day 2 & 3...... Part 4

This photo was taken at the coffee house during breakfast on the second day. Why Ee Shuen and Daddy have the same expression?



After breakfast, we went to Zoo Negara.




We saw a lot of animals such as deer, tiger, hippo, lion, elephant, girraffe...




Ee Shuen was so tired after a day visit to Zoo, Ikea...




Ee Shuen's favourite during her stay in hotel was the LRT. From the hotel room, Ee Shuen managed to see train passed by as there is a LRT station just down the road.
Everytime when LRT passed by, EE Sheun will climb up to the sofa, and watching LRT driving towards the station.




Finally, on Day 3, before leaving the hotel, we had our family photo again!

Gong gong's birthday

Gong gong's birthday was on 25th June. He was having master classes in Penang this week. Therefore, everybody came to Penang to celebrate his birthday, and at the meantime drove him from Ipoh to Penang, since everybody was on holiday.



We bought Gong gong a cake from one of the bakery in QueensBay Mall, looks nice!



Singing birthday song...



Blowing the candles...


And finally, taking family photo!!!

Is your MP representing you??

Last monday, Malaysian parlimen pass the motion to call for support for the Government's actions in the face of rising oil and food prices. Read here.

2 questions that you might want to ask youself.........
1. Are you piss off with current price increase of oil and food?
if yes.... but apparently the 129 MP that voted for the motion was not piss off.

2. did you vote for the 129 MP that supported the motion?
if yes... is he or she representing you in supporting the motion?

No more monorail for Penang; according to malaysiakini

There you have it, according to malaysiakini, the federal government has finally shelved the PORR and monorail project.

In this challenging times, rising fuel prices and climate change, improving and encouraging people to use public transportation will be something we want to do. Shelving the monorail is the most stupid decision to be made at this time. I thought when the government annouce the hike in fuel price, part of the reason was to use the money to improve the public transportation, another 'cannot make your mind decision?'

The expectation would be a little high, but its time for our state government show some creativity in getting the monorail project implemented without depending on federal funding.

We are one piss off 'with the decision' family!!!

swimming lesson

Ee Shuen went for swimming lesson again today.
Guess who's the swimming teacher?.......... Daddy!
She loves to be in the swimming pool, but when come back to bath, she cried.

Cactus

I like these photo taken by Daddy few days back. There is flower came out from cactus planted by Ah Ma.

Sleepless night

Ee Shuen didn't sleep well last night. When Mummy put her to sleep, she can't sleep and started crying none stop. We check her body temperature, not having fever, checked whether she sprained her hands or legs, nothing! But she was still crying continuously. Then, Mummy had to carry her and move around, ee shuen was just pointing everywhere indicating that she want to go everywhere, one confused crying baby...... Finally, after about more than half and hour, she fell asleep.
However at about 2am, she started to cry again. None stop crying! even gave her her fovourite - her pillow, she was still crying. Everyone woke up from her crying, ah kong and ah ma, all with very concerned look. In the end we thought we should take her to see dotor to check out what is wrong.
Dr suspected she had stomachache, as she was not showing any other symtoms. When she was back home, she started to cry again. So daddy tried to switch on her favourite cartoon - Barney, and guess what she came down from the sofa and start dancing!
After watching for 2-3 minutes, we switched off the TV and brought her back to sleep.
Finally, she slept till 8am, and as a result Daddy and Mummy also didn't went to work, just want to confirm she is alright.

Rally at City Stadium Penang

I was there with my camera!!

the crowd

listening tentatively

rare sight to see at a rally chinese malays and indians coming together

malaysians of all races cheering whenever the speaker hit a point

the master orator striking a point


and many more.... BUT most importantly i see people of all races coming together for a common cause. previously it is either, PAS or UMNO rally/ceramah for the Malays, DAP or MCA rally/ceramah for the chinese and MIC or PPP rally/ceramah for the indians. Hopefully it is trully a new dawn for Malaysian.

Fever

Ee Shuen was having fever after Mummy came back from KL. She started to have fever on Friday evening. We took her to see doctor.
After staying at home for 2 days, finally she's alright on Sunday afternoon.

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all fathers in the world! To Papa, Gong gong, Ah Gong...

Singing

When Mummy sings,

Old MacDonald had a farm, E I E I O,
And on his farm he had a cow, E I E I O.
With a moo moo here and a moo moo there,
Here a moo, there a moo, everywhere a moo moo.
Old MacDonald had a farm, E I E I O.

Ee Shuen will sing along with the last few words " E I E I O ".

When Mummy sings,

One little, two little,
Three little Indians.
Four little, five little,
Six little Indians.
Seven little, eight little,
Nine little Indians,
Ten little Indian boys.

ee Shuen will wait patiently till the end and sing the last word together, " boy....."!

公 公， 姑 姑

Recently, Ee Shuen tried to learn new words. Today she look at Ah gong and called " 阿 公”. First time calling Ah Gong after teaching her so long!
When she saw gong gong ( Mummy's father ) photo, she starts calling " 公 公".

She also knows how to say " 姑 姑" ( gu gu ) finally!

爸 爸， 妈 妈， 阿 姨， 婆 婆

There was one night during few weeks back, when Mummy and Daddy away for work, ee Shuen lying on the bed, and start saying," 爸 爸， 妈 妈， 阿 姨， 婆 婆. " ( papa, mama, ah yi, popo )

This little girl must be thinking all of us!

Trip to KL - Reached our destination, Day 1...... Part 3

Finally, after 4 hours plus journey, we reached our destination - KL.



Ee Shuen checked out the hotel room see if it's alright.



After a short rest, we took LRT to KLCC. Ee Shuen was so excited as it is her first time to take a train. However, with the petrol price incrase and it was near to 5pm, the train was so packed. And the LRT station was not so user friendly for baby travels with stroller, as there is only staircase and no escalator.



We took dinner at one of the Korean restaurant.



After dinner, we took Ee Shuen to the fountain. Ee Shuen was so excited and running from one end to another.




We celebrate Daddy's birthday at hotel, with the scenary of Twin Tower at the back.

Trip to KL, THE FOOD....part 2

One of the interesting part of the trip was food.

1. on the way, we stop at Bidor for the famous duck drumstip mee sua, wan ton mee and little chicken biskuit (kai chai peng)



2. The first night, after arrived we decided to visit the Suria KLCC, we will tell the horror story of trying to ride the LRT with your baby and stroller in another post. With our hungry stomach we decided to eat in one of the korean restaurant, which of course burn a big hole in our pocket.



3. at KL of course we also visited McDonalds and Ee Shuen has her 3 course meals of corn flakes, bread and grapes.


4. We have heard so much about Tony Roma's ribs, seafood and steak that we decided to pay it a visit for dinner, much to our dissapointment. We ordered the NY steak and sesame salmon, which is just so so. The steak had a very peculiar shape, look more like a sausage. Another thing to point out, although Tony Roma's says they have seafood, the only seafood we say on the menu was salmon, fish and chips, and shrimps. If this can classified as a seafood restaurant, then I guess all the kin che phui in the coffee shop can now rename their stall to seafood kin che phui.



5. And on the third day on the way back we stop by Kampar famour curry chicken wrapped in bread. It was quite huge and of course cost us rm25. Intresting enough it is quite different from the other pirated one which have the curry chicken wrapped in aluminium foil, but this one is wrapped in paper, which be easily peeled off.




6. And finally, when we back from KL to Ipoh, it was dumpling festival. Popo had cooked some homemade dumpling. Yummy!

Trip to KL, off we go...... Part 1

Last weekend we decided to take Ee Shuen on her first trip out from Penang and Ipoh to visit KL, and all its wonder, KLCC, fountain, LRT, zoo negara and many more. Equip with Garmin's GPS, cost rm545 (bought from USA), off we go on our adventure.
