Mini Milestones : Jasper's 57th month (Jasmine 84th)

 Aug 2020

We went to Swee Lin jiji house to let her try another bra because she didn't like the silver strap that I gave to her. She was very picky and ended up taking the new singlet grey bra. And didn't come to buy from me again, oh well.... 

Homes via zoom. 

Mostly on Sundays we will go cycling at this park. It is becoming a good routine for us. I do feel sad that we can't go back to the weekly swim class again... but am at least glad the cycling skill is already in Jasmine's pocket. 

She does all kind of funny things like tying things around her waist, that is her purse filled with cash, mostly from Ah Ma. 

This is her reminder, from teacher. She is worried she may forget so she sticks on the door for me to read when I come back from picking up Jasper. 

We finally ordered the boltless rack to go in here. 

And the 2 older racks goes here. One for bras, another for outdoor stuffs. 

Rack is in finally. Can put Joshua's equipments and Anne's baking stuffs. 

Everyday pick her up from school, we go for lunch nearby. This girl told me a classmate boy is a biiiiiiit ugly, i think the name is Zhe Hao? That he plays with rubber band like a bow and lost it. She observed it and laughs to herself. 

She told me that Bella said to her Esan has a crush on Ariana. Oh dear, at standard 1 they are spreading such rumours!

Dress up day for school.

Her 5th tooth dropped on 8th August. When she was playing with Jasper, his buttock hit her face and the tooth bleed. After she rinses her mouth, she played with it (was already very very loose) and moments later it fell off. 

There was a holiday that we sent Jasmine to Seth & Stephano's house to play. She got ready so fast that day. 

They asked to wash toys at the back again. I reluctantly set it up for them. 

Brought binoculars to the park. :) 

And ball ! Should always remember this, Jasper is kicking very well. 

Learnt ting xie here on the white board. 

One day I let them watch The Grinch movie and he said why the grinch speaks Chinese, hahaha. The way Grinch mumbles to him sounds like Chinese. 

Sunway Lagoon !!!
Evelyn booked rooms for our stay at Sunway Clio hotel which includes free admission to Sunway Lagoon! We went on Friday right after Jasmine's school and had the most fun because the whole place is almost empty. 

They both loved the water slides, superman slides and all the wet rides. 

Jasper was slightly below the minimum height but they let him through!!

They even gone for VUVUZELA !!

Koko was recovering from his fall. 

This is one of the last wet place they played at and it seems it is Jasper's favourite!

He kept asking for us to return again, non stop!

We bumped into lunch feeding time for all the animals, and saw how they fed the karnivores - lion, panthers, otters and bears.

Shopping at Sunway Pyramid ! We did this a ton and felt so tiring!

We tried to let them wear face shields and they did it so so so badly. 

We ate dinner, ice cream and then scattered to shop whatever everyone wants to look at. 

This is next day, decided it is better for them to wear masks. 

Ah Ma insisted on buying clothes for them at H&M, I felt so tired having to help to decide what to buy. Otherwise it will be too much on something and too little on other things. Like mummy was already tired after selecting clothes for Jasmine she almost forgot to buy for Jasper. 

The 3 t-shirts we bought here, this one and another 2 dinosaur t-shirts became his top favourite. 

I didn't buy anything for myself!

Joshua also bought house pants.

That night, we celebrate Jasmine's birthday at Chili's! She picked Chilis without a doubts. 

A lot other times were spend being confined in the hotel rooms. I actually don't like this kind of holidays or accommodation.  The kids just play their toys anywhere. 

Including dirty carpet floor. Yucks.

This is the night before we check out, Jasper kept touching the kukubird of the mannequins. 

Group photo before checking out. Evelyn was having severe tooth ache so they were rushing home. 

Look at at things we have!!  Too many!

Back in Summer Academy. :) 

Wakanda week at Summer Academy. The week after Chadwick Boseman passed away, the teacher crafted a week of syllabus for them to learn about Wakanda and Black Panther. So they have to wear all black on Friday for some black panther challenge. 

I let him wear my black sleeves to look much more like he is wearing an armor. 

So Jasper scratches his own bum bum and then said his fingers are yuck, disgusting. 

So once I caught him using a blanket to scratch his bum bum to avoid his finger become smelly. Hahahaha. 

He is also very frightened by his own pi sai, after I take it out to show him he runs away. 

Not happy after hair cut feeling the hair on his arms. 

Celebrate Jasmine birthday again with panda cake at USJ house. 

Jasmine wears bracelet to sleep (the pink white green beads) and wears floral bangel during the day, which after while it cracked and she started to wear other types. 

With the new umbrella bought from Kaison, use when picking her up from school.

Write letters to her friends. 

And giving them her hand made key chain, bought from Toyrus from Sunway Pyramid. 

At the Toyrus next to Kaison, Jasper picked the Rocky Paw Patrol toy which is RM75, we felt ok. 

Jasper kept picking out babies toys or those giant doll house that cost RM200-RM300. It took us a long time before she decided to buy a donut key chain making kit for RM40. Can make 3. Although it's obviously overpriced but at least it is price and age appropriate.

So she did this in one simple afternoon. And we decided to give one each to her friends - Xin Yao, Xin Yu and Xin Yee. 

She wrote letters to Xin Yu and Xin Yee. She didn't write to Xin Yao because she was lazy. 

Packed like this for them. :) 

She said Loh Siew Lin asked for presents too.. so we later on gave her a cartoon brooch pin. 

Feed tortoise at Kota Kemuning park on Saturday morning 8am.

Jasper has missed this park and so glad we finally could bring him back here. 

I always have to touch up the paint on this cabinet. This time quite a major area !

There was a pao truck that came by our house that Wednesday, Jasmine hear it and so we went out to buy paos. 

She was very very happy. 

Every night before sleep will ask me to read 小丁当

Met up with Wei Chee for catch up. 

Jasper sweats so much at night that I have to order t-shirts with holes for him from Shopee. He calls the water from my grey bottle that he drinks at night "gong xi water" because the way he holds it is like gong xi gong xi. Haha. 

We were out shopping for piano for Jasmine. Thought we will be getting a promo price for the Korg B1 piano but out of stocks. And when I look clearly at the Korg piano i dont like there is a fabric piece on it that is hard to clean. 

Then we went next door where they sell lots of drums. Jasper went mad there. 

Jasmine tried but she was less expressive. 

Cut long story short, we went to Mid Valley after that, to try to look for more pianos. There is a yamaha shop there where we tested out the basic one and think it is suitable. 

I have contacted Bee Ai (originally supposed to buy Korg B1 from her at RM1500 but I told her I want to check out the promo, end up she sold to other people before I ask her again that afternoon). 

I also contacted Albert (randomly on Facebook when I was desperately looking for second hands), and he led us to the yamaha piano. Sadly couldn't buy from him because no more stocks, he quoted us RM2100 without stool. I found one on Shoppee RM2100 with stool !!!

Bought it when we had dinner here, lousy dinner anyway. Never return here for dinner. 

But we are glad finally ordered the piano la. 

Back to church on Sunday for Act Kids, this is their first time back if not wrong. 

Back in Muar ! Short trip but nice because we get to cycle out to the red tracks again. 

We might let Jasper try the 4 wheels bike in December, because he is very very ready. 

My mummy bought these for me. :) 

Dinner at Pokemist. :) 

They left a slime here overnight and the lizard was trapped in it. Yucks. 

Hard boiled egg for egg boy. 

Play lanterns here too. :) 

And candles. They were impressed with Joshua's candle magic where his finger can't be burnt by the fire.
