Primary 1.....??

I'm so happy when I received a letter from Education Ministry informing that Jona application to go to the primary school that we have decided being approved. Even Jona himself is happy too, as till today, he got 5 classmates that will be going to same school as him(from same kindy), but not too sure whether will be in same class except one.

Wow, finally I can go through the same experience as some mommies have posted on their blog previously ~ hopefully it will be a wonderful and exciting experience for me and Jona. So many thing to prepare ~ taking passport size photo, fill in the form and need to be submit before 2nd Oct(hopefully, I won't forget about this), buying books at certain date, and orientation on certain date too........a bit headache liao....PLUS, haven't even got time to check on daycare centre for Jona yet....

When I and Dadi decide to enroll Jona for this primary school(chinese medium), I have always think and wonder whether I would make a wise decision, and till today, I still don't know. All my wish is, Jona able to absorb and learn in the school he likes. And, when he show a good improvement in talking mandarin to grandma and even get a good result in his enrichment chinese class, I thought I have make a correct decision....But, then, deep in my heart, I'm still worried as his report card showing his Mandarin performance as 'GOOD' compare to English, Math and BM as 'EXCELLENT'.

I pray to GOD that Jona will be happy in his new school from next year onward.....It is really hard to make decision for kids....

Are you ready yet......??

I try to train Iz to be diaperless again after first attempt seem failed(a year ago). 1st time failed because Iz told me that he is not ready yet and he only will be diaperless when he is 5 years old(still manage to negiotiate with me)!!!

But with my persistent and think that he is ready for it, as well as because almost every night he wet himself(even though he is using diaper) till his pyjamas dry again(being blowed dry by air con + fan), we give it a try again for the past 2 weeks.

And, I even told him that if he successfully being diaperless, I will buy him present as praise him and he seem to be not so willingness to be diaperless yet but got no choice since I half forcing him(bad Momi). First few days, he manage to be dry whole night(by waking up 2x) and I'm so happy about it. Being impatient, I even go and buy LEGO online(the price is really afforable and if you manage it well, you even can get free transportation cost) at http://brickbastion.com/store/ (I'm not the owner to this website but for those kids to love LEGO so much) .
A sudden GIFT for Jona & Iz!!!
Who know, my project seem to be fail again. After that, Iz brain seem to be NOT co-operative with his body(urinary system), as almost every night, he pee pee again on bed, and make himself wet. And, if I didn't realise it, the next morning, he seem to be dry whole night, but, can smell ammonia on his pyjamas OR if I awake at midnight or early morning, can see that his pyjamas is drying slowly.

Because of my impatient to train him being diaperless, within 9 days, Iz fall sick twice ~ flu, cough and fever!!! I really feel bad and maybe, he is really not ready yet to be diaperless......To comfort myself: I still have 2 packs of diaper to be use (which would last Iz for another 2 months plus) and also, he is only 3 years 10 months + little boy.

Rather Iz be a HAPPY boy than a SICK boy....

Second attempt seem failure again!!!

Work Smart, Play Hard.....

I don’t know what happen. I have been pretty busy since June this year. So many things need to be manage and taken care of. I just think that 24 hours is really not enough for me to manage all these, and due to this circumstance, I have lost weight extremely.

Everyone seem me include my customer, has been asking me, why I lose weight again. Yup, and my blog diary also received some impact as well ~ as you see, I no longer able to write frequently anymore (even though previously, I also didn’t’ update frequently, but, at least, there is some update about my princes).

My job task has getting tough month by month especially from 1st July onward. I will be in charge of AP region exclude Japan market. Previously, I don’t have to cover China or HK (as we have an office there), but, now, yes. I even have to manage my colleague there to make sure everything run smoothly.

Haha…if only my remuneration package is BIG and attractive as well, then, I won’t be grumpy and complain anymore….

Of course there is Pros & Cons for everything. With this job task, I will be able to provide better living for my princes and my future, but, then, I will miss my princes even more with my ‘heavy’ travelling. Maybe, my Iz is big boy already, as he no longer cry or miss me so much when I travelling which of course am good to me (as I can concentrate more on my assignments).

I hope I could find some solution soon, or would this be my early middle life crisis? Haha

Jona BIG Day....

Happy Birthday, Jonathan!!

How time flies so quickly without I realizing it. Thinking it back, 6 years ago, while I was worrying about Jona safety inside my womb (daily) and can’t wait for the gynae to take him out to show me, today he is so smart and healthy boy. I still remember one week earlier, 17th July 2009, my gynae told me that it is time to take Jona out from my womb (due to certain reason) and we decide to fix it on 23rd July 2009(I try to delay it as long as I can, but thanks GOD, we make a correct decision).

When the gynae show me Jona face for the first time in the OT, my tears just flow so freely till Dadi get panic and asking what’s wrong….haha….I, myself don’t know why I cried, guess it is a happy cry.

Animal cookies for Jona party bag....

A cupcakes, contribute by Aunty Flora!!!
Jona's party bag for his classmate: animal cookie & DIY Sun catcher

Today, Jona is a happy 6 years old boy ~ smart, loving, caring and handsome too. He really is a big boy now. Months before his birthday, he keep remind me to buy some party goodies for his friends in kindy, and yesterday night, he help me do the simple packing ~ he just can’t wait for his party celebration today in kindy.
Guess what pressie Dadi bought for Jona??


Funny discussion between Jona and Grandpa:-

Grandpa: Jona, come I bring you go buy present. You choose and I pay money.
Jona: No no….present is not like that.
Grandpa: Huh?
Jona: You need to go buy the present yourself and then wrap it and then, only give it to me. That’s called present. It is a surprise. If you bring me go and buy and choose, then, I know what it is already, then, it is not called present anymore.
Grandpa: *Still in shocked* …oooo…like that ar? Ok, ok…I will have to crack my head to think what things are suitable for your year’s lor…

Another contribution from Aunty Flora: celebration at home....
Happy Blowing!!!!

“Jona, Momi & Dadi & Iz wishing you have a good health, obey to GOD word and many happy days to come”

Not forgetting, Aunty Chinnee sharing the same birthday date with Jona. Happy Birthday to you too!! You got pressie or not? If not, come to my house, I share with you my pressies….

Cruel or not....

I hate 4 legs insects (to be exact invertebrate). I don’t know why but, it just makes me shivering. In my house, lizard or cockroach is the king ~ as I dare not kill them. Everytimes, cockroach crawling, my sons will scream and calling Dadi for help. Haha….

Till Dadi can’t take it anymore, so, he went and bought this.
At first he told me that he bought a food pellet that when cockroach or lizard eats it, they will die and when their friend eats their carcass it will spread. Who know, he didn’t bought what he told me.

And, when I wake up next morning, I saw this on the floor in kitchen as well as in bathroom. Eeeeeiiii….it give me a shock!!! This is Dadi, when he does something, he won’t give anyone a notice about it. Even Jona and Iz cannot accept what Dadi did ~ they denied going inside bathroom to brush their teeth.
And, imagine, since I hate invertebrate, of course I won’t go and even bother or touch them. This Dadi, once put the trap, he didn’t even bother to go and clear it, and he expected ME to do it!!!

My nerve just boil up ~ I hate invertebrate, no doubt, but, put this kind of trap to trap and kill them instantly I definitely won’t do it as I think it is really cruel. I want to call Pesticide Company to come but, Dadi say no need. Sometimes, I really don’t know what man thinking…..

And, it bring back the memory: I remember when I was alone over weekend during one of the semester break, one night, suddenly a frog jump into the rent house(I rent with my housemate but all gone back hometown except me). Imagine, I got scare off, and climb on my double deck bed, and didn’t come down whole night ~ crying and then fall asleep without I realize it. So pitiful hor…..That’s me and it seem now, Jona is inherited 'this' from me…..

Lovely Friends

Do you have lovely friends that accompany you when you watch television or when you sleep or when you eat or play?


My Jona does!! He always being so gentle & soft & caring in his heart even though he is playful most of the time. Should say, has opposite character when he is settle down. Haha...

Usually he will bring these soft toys to sleep with him in his bed, cover them using same blanket he used, or eat with them. One night after he sleep, I manage to force myself not fall asleep with them and came down to do some house cleaning.


See what I found? Haha....these are Jona's lovely friend ~ sitting firmly on top of the sofa facing television. I think he forgot to bring them up with him that night.
Don't that look cute and adorable? How about you? Do you have lovely friends as well??

Acting as BIG brother.....

I don't know when Jona start to behave or acting like BIG Tai Kor......This scenario remind me that he now know how to control lil Iz or hide certain thing from my knowledge if he has too, maybe, now, he know that he is elder brother and has the right to do so.......


While I was cooking in the wet kitchen last weekend, suddenly Iz ran to me and file a complain:-

Iz: Momi, you see this...
Showing me the container that has been coloured on top of the cover.
Momi: mmm...yes, who did it?
Iz: It is kor kor, Jonathan.
I start calling Jona to come to the kitchen at once.
Momi: Jona, tell Momi, who colour this?
Jona didn't answer me, instead he look at Iz and say this
Jona: Why you go and complain to Momi huh?
In smaller tone,
Jona: You don't have to tell Momi about it. Who ask you to go and tell ar? It is a small matter. It is just colouring only and we can rub it away ourselves mah.
Iz: I don't know, it is you do it. So, I tell Momi.

And, so sponteously, Jona just hold Iz by shoulder and lead him out from kitchen without giving me the answer and continue watching tv TOGETHER like nothing happen.

????? How about you? If you are me, what your reaction will be?

Mother Day (Flashback of the celebration)

I have to admit that now, I start to enjoy mother day better compare to last year, even though this year, we don’t celebrate it at all ~ as my mom is away (in hometown), Dadi is travelling last weekend.

But, since Jona & Iz start to know the meaning of Mother Day (in their own way), it brings happier to me.

Jona make nice Mother Day card for me and he, himself feel proud of it. Even though he does give me the flower (on behalf of his kindy), maybe, he doesn’t contribute in making it, he seem not so keen when he present it to me. This son of mine is really a loving boy.

Last weekend, he even remind me and Iz that once we arrived at my sister house, we need to wish my sister “Happy Mother Day” because he say “Mommy, later when we go Aunty Flora’s house, we must also remember to wish Aunty Flora – ‘Happy Mother Day’. Because she is also a mother to Gaby”. I really speechless.

For Iz, he shows his love to me by presenting the flower in his special way. I think he is the kind of more like to present with action rather than wording compare to Jona. When I reach his kindy to fetch him back from nursery last Friday, he patiently waits for me behind the grill. From far, I can see him standing there with hands put at the back. At first, I didn’t though of anything. And, suddenly when teacher open the grill, he grin widely and ask me, “Mommy, do you know what is behind my back?” And, then, present me with this flower with the sweetest smile on his face. How thoughtful of him and wish me “Happy Mother Day”.

And, on Sunday, my pastor gives me these messages:

The meaning of the mother is universal:

M is for the million things she gives,
O means only that she is growing old,
T is for the tears she shed to save her child,
H is for her heart of purest-gold,
E is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
R means right, and right she will always be.

She spent sleepless nights when we were about to born.
She spent sleepless nights when we were very small.
She spent sleepless nights when we were going through our school exams.
She spent sleepless nights when we were used to come late during college days.
She spent sleepless nights when we went abroad for our 1st onsite assignments.
She spent sleepless nights when our marriage preparations were taking place.

And at the end…..what she gets in return.

Sleepless nights thinking of what she did wrong that her children left her alone at home to settle abroad?
She never complains, she never argues…..she only love and love and loves her children.
That’s the character of a Mother.

How touching……Here, I would like to wish all Mother a Happy Mother Day and hoping everyday, is a mother day to you!!!

Labor Day - Day of Fun

On 1st of May, finally we have our Family outing. Dadi doesn’t need to go to work or outstation. So, the boys wish suddenly comes true after being postponed for several times by Dadi.

Early in the morning, after taking light breakfast of milk and buns, we head to the park ~ Bukit Jalil Park: Jona & Iz favourite park, where they really sweating all out. Both of them have been to this park several times with Dadi(when Momi is travelling), so it is the first time for me to be there. And, also, since it is first time for me, I really let my kids guide and bring me to the place where they want to go and I’m really impressed with the surrounding and the facilities there . Even though, Dadi brought them several times, but Dadi always constrict their movement – can’t explore too far…..as Dadi being lazy.

Jona & Iz even dare to try 'stone' exercise......Old Monkey relax on the tree and 3 wild boars waiting for foods.

With Momi, I let them climb the staircase till the end, walk through the mini jungle, see wild animals ~ wild boars, monkeys and squirrels. Jona & Iz so happy seeing wild boar and keep asking why these animals in jungle. All the ways, they keep talking talking and talking.

3 'man' enjoying themselves ~ walking, haha.... Right: Scenario of water fountain....

At the end, we are exhausted after walking for 1 hour non stop, but, Iz still full of energy and insist of wanting to play at the playground before call it HOME. The playground is really cool ~ the stuff there is really for kid to explore and really need to use their body/stamina to ‘play’. End up; when time to have a nap, I really have no problem of forcing them. Within 5 seconds, they just snooze off…..HA,HA…

Once they wake up, they are ready for second round of fun: IKEA ~ smaland. Too bad, we only were given 1 hour to leave our kids there as it is full on that day. While Dadi sit outside watching them, Momi grab this opportunity to go shop at The Curve (Aiyah!! For me, the ONE hour time is too short, till I can’t go shop at ZARA warehouse sales, just next door).

Anyway, the boys really have lot of funs, and came out from the Smaland, they keep screaming and shouting “I’m sooooo HUNGRY!!!” “I want to eat jelly biscuit” after they saw I bought half dozen of the currypuff!!

It is really a fun day for 2 boys as well as for Dadi & Momi. It is nice to see their happy smile even in their sleep. Their appetite increase and their sleeping (either nap time or night time), is no more hassle for me!! Hehe….I think I should consider of bringing them out more frequent…….And, Dadi still need to fulfill Iz another wish ~ going to beach to play with crab.

Out of Guilty???

Yes, I'm travelling again......I'm travelling to this country where they serve the best 'Mango Snow Ice' just like our ABC. It is really tasty and nice(with lot of condense milk).....but, too bad, this time, because it is Auturm, they don't have mango available(what an excuse!!)


My Dinner with my favorite Snow Ice!!!
I don't know why this time, I feel so guilty of not spending weekend time with my 2 boys. I guess I really prefer to spend my weekend with my kids, as weekend mean, more free time together and can do whatever we want at home(Dadi also agree with me when he spend last weekend at home)....Dadi say "It is so relaxing and enjoyable!!"

And, I know it is wrong of compensate my 'away' time with kid by buying things as they request. I think it is just to make myself happy. Sometimes, tt is so hard to be a working mom, especially working mom that involve lot of travelling. PLUS, when the 'management' don't really appreaciate what you did and sacrifice. When I left home on Tuesday, Wednesday, Jona fall sick ~ fever, cough, flu and phelgm. I really hate it when I travel, my son not feeling well......I don't know why, I just prefer to stay at home when this happen(but I know it is impossible), as I don't wish Iz 'incident ~ getting febrile fit' happen again.

Remote Car for Jona AND Helicopter for Iz...(hope Dadi wont' fainted again this time)
Backdate conversation:-
Me: Jona, Iz, Momi need to go travelling again soon
Iz: Momi, where ar?
Me: Taiwan
Iz: Must take aeroplane one ar?
Me: Yes
Iz: Momi, this time, I want aeroplane got control remote one, ok?
Me: Ok, I try my best ya, but, no promise whether I got time to shop or not. How about you, Jona?
Jona: Momi, next time, you don't have to ask me what I want. Anything, just buy anything for me. Anything, I will like it one.
Me: **speechless** ok.


CARS hanger and the craft foam!! I manage to find it in Taiwan, and they even have so many choices like flower, butterfly shape, etc...

And, now, I really can't wait to go home, as I have something for them when they see me. I feel bad everytimes, if I can't buy what they want. As esp Iz, every night, when I talk to him, he will ask me "Momi, where are you now?" "Have you buy me an aeroplane control remote one ar?"

Fun Fun time with Foams

Last weekend, suddenly I’m not feeling well again. I guess it might be due to weather, I got migraine attack again (after so long didn’t experience it). It is not funny at all this time, as Dadi is out of town. But, GOD is really listening to my prayer, as both boy boy really behave so well till I can’t believe myself.

They keep playing with their foam ~ non stop!! So fun and enjoying pasting the foam, plus lot of giggling among them. I have to say that I really proud with both of them esp. Jona. See from the outcome, it seems Jona really use his brain (being creative ~ alamak can’t think which side is for creativity). A cute people holding balloon, got cake with 1 candle, making a photo frame ~ All these is invented by Jona himself without any guideline from me. And, I like this the most: draw eyes and put one spiral foam as ‘tongue’…….



1st(from Left):I like most and the cutest one ~ funny face!! 2nd and 3rd from left: some of Jona creations

Left side: Photo frame with FOOD Right side: Jona first creation...

I still remember I bought this foam book as well as the foam set one year back when I went to Australia on biz trip. During that time, Jona didn’t really seem to be interest with it at all till last weekend; suddenly he took the foam out from box and start playing with it together with Iz.
Foam Book ~ full of ideas....

When the pre-cut foam shape is running out, it force Iz to start using his brain to think of how to utilize the remaining foam (as he can’t follow the design in the book anymore) which is good.

>
Iz creations, of course with the help from Momi and Jona(to paste). Upper, 3rd from left side: Iz own idea (without the help from book). And, Lower, 3rd from Right: His first creation ~ man holding balloon (copycat).

I just love to see my sons play and use their brain indirectly without forcing them to do homework esp. on weekend. This is definitely one of the ways to simulate their brain power. Too bad, that I just can’t find these kind of foam in any bookstore in Malaysia. Do you know where I can get this pre-cut foam shape again from Malaysia OR I have to go Oz again to get the supply?

Kitty, Kitty, You Naughty Kitty!

This few days, suddenly Jona told me that he want to have a pet animal, and he even have decided the name for his pet ~ Kitty, the cat!! I don’t know why he chose cat as his pet, but I’m definitely won’t fulfill his request. Several reasons: even though I’m not a cat lover, but, I’m not that bad to cat as well, if they didn’t step into my boundary. And, worst part, Dadi is allergic to animal flur or dust ~ as he has sinus problem as well as asthma. So, imagine, if there is slightly dust at home or cat ‘touch’ Dadi leg, Dadi will sneeze non stop!!

The funny part, I did even propose to my colleague who is a cat lover, to ‘borrow’ his cat to me for several days, as I want Jona to learn that it is really not that easy to request thing as he need to be full responsible to the cat ~ like bath, feed etc, etc….Haha…of course, my colleague rejected my request, as his cat is really oversize and also the body is out of proportion. If you didn’t realize it, the cat head is so small and the body is so BIG(should have take his cat photo and show it).

While I ‘squeezing’ my head to think of ideas suddenly a cat by pass in front of me (I was in the kitchen preparing lunch for my kids), hold something inside the mouth. At first glance, I thought it might be mouse. And, when he spit the thing out, and start to chew, bite and eat it, only I realize it is a fried chicken.



See, the Kitty keep looking back while he munch the food ~ must be steal again liao!!

I just wondering where he gets it from, does he steal the food again from one of my neighbors or it is a gift from them?? Honestly, I hate stray cat as well as not responsible owner of the cat. There is one time, when I put my Pomphret fish on my kitchen sink to defrost, though of wash and steam it for dinner later. When I heard some noise from the kitchen, and went to see, I realize the cat has taken my fish!! Horrible!!

And, yesterday some stray cat eats my fish food again (second time already)!! Is the cat so hungry till fish food also they can eat?? I should convince Jona to have fish as his pet and also think of way how to get rid of cat coming to my compound. Any ideas?

NO ENTRY, Please...

Timid Boy? That’s Jona boy. Since young, he is very timid even until now. If he needs to go toilet, he need someone to go with him even though at our own house or if he need to go upstair to get something or go inside the playroom to get his toys. So, you can imagine how tiring especially if he only want to go toilet only for several times a day……..what to do, he is Jona boyJ.

Yesterday, while I was busy preparing dinner, suddenly Jona ran to me, half screaming, “Mommy, mommy, come with me faster!!”

Momi: Why? What happen?
Jona: I’m so urge (holding his penis with both hands like prevent the urine from leak out)
Momi: What’s wrong? Just go toilet. The light is on and I’m here near you.
Jona: No, no, I’m scare. There is something inside the toilet and it is black colour.
Momi: Oooo…it is just a cockroach. You don’t disturb him, and he won’t come and disturb you too. Go, faster.

At the same time, Iz came and go disturb the cockroach and it immediately hides somewhere else while Jona release his urge peaceful.

After that, I saw Jona so busy drawing something and then, ask Dadi for tape. You know what happen?
Haha….He draw a cockroach and then, put ‘X’sign mean no entry to cockroach so they cannot come in and paste it on every door in our house!!!

Kid really dares to do thing that is out of our imagination. He thought the cockroach will understand his drawing sign and won’t go into our house again after reading it…..Anyone need this sign for your house??

Smooth traffic = Good Mood

I dont' know whether it is only me or it happen to almost everyone who need to rush to/back work every morning/evening. I realise that since January this year, the number of cars on the road is TRIPLE compare to before economic slow down. I really don't know what is happening or going on....anyone able to tell me about it?


I remember clearly 2 years back, when my office hour is from 9am ~ 6pm, the traffic is really bad till I have to request to my boss that I want to change working hour, just to beat the traffic. Imagine to reach office before 9am, I have to leave home at 7.30am and after 6pm, I only reach home around 7 or 7.30pm. Because of the traffic stress, my mood will turn bad as well, and it is not good for my health(as my body cell will be depressed too without me realising it). Luckily, he approve my request. So, from that day, my official hour is change from 8am ~ 5pm. And, every morning, I started from my house around 7.20am, and it took me around 30~ 40mins to reach my office and same when I going home. So nice and wonderful hor....


Good thing never last forever!! A year back, thing has changed slowly and traffic started to get worst in early morning and before I manage to change my schedule again, suddenly due to petrol increase in price(middle of the year), cars getting less on the road, and it seem to be dreaming again that I could take only 30 mins drive to work ~ very smooth......


See, the sky is not 'open' yet, instead I already stuck in traffic jam :(

I still stuck.....

Too bad, it is only for few months nia....And, esp now, since January 2009, I can see there is huge change in car flow during early morning, say 7am!! Traffic start to occur everywhere. And, the worst part, nowadays, I no more enjoy driving easily in the early morning. My traffic jam started exactly in from of my house till I reach office. Imagine the stress that I occured. To make it worst, I can't start from my house at 7.20am anymore nor 7am!! When I start from my house at 7am, I will only reach my office around 8.10 or sometimes, 8.30am!!! Aiyoooohhhh!!!! One and half hours stuck inside the car!!!

What should I do?? Change to work from 7 ~ 4pm?? Is this possible? I don't think so...My colleague even tease me saying "come early to office, eat breakfast and then, start work" or "move house near to office"........Does this worth it to do so??

Rain, rain go away,....Momi need to go to work(the worst!!)

One thing I know for sure: When the traffic is bad esp during raining, or some minor car accident, my mood will be moody or bad as well during that whole day. When my mood is bad, everything doesn't seem to be correct at all......Now, only if I could stay at home, haha....then, all these unnecessary stress will go away peacefully and I will have more healthy life!!! For sure, I need to pray to GOD to give me sight to find solution for this crazy traffic........

Content of a Letter

Jona love doing Art & Craft or drawing. He just won't get bored of it compare to Iz. And, I think my decision of sending him to Art class really worth the money as nowadays, I just need to keep filling up my drawer with recycle papers. And, he didn't draw on the wall anymore!!! He just changed......

From times to times, he just love to draw something and then, write some message on it, either attention to me or Dadi or Aunty Flora, and then, request to have envelope and stamp to mail it out.

Writing all these letters and messages really boost his vocabulary skill as well as writting skill(I guess practise do make it perfect one day). I must admit that I quite impressed with his reading. He can read most of the children story book(most of the words) and also able to write a sentence, even though the handwritting ~ really no eyes see lor as well as never wanted to correct or re-write it nicely again. Just simply jump from one section to another like ROCKET(from bottom to up). When I try to correct him, he will just simply said "Mmm...never mind ar"
Here is one of it that I manage to snap:

"Mom, I love You. I got a game. You choose a animal. Which animal you like.....In the box got, Fish, Turtle and Butterfly.......

Weekend Activities

Remember I say before that Dadi always complains that my son toys are too many and request me to stop buying anymore when I’m on my biz trip?

But, guess what? When I’m alone at home during weekend with 2 boys, it is really useful to have different kind of toys to occupy my prince’s free time. They will play on their own most of the time, of course, half of the time, screaming calling Momi for helps like “Momi, you see Jonathan. He doesn’t want to play with me” “Momi, you see Iz. He take away my toys”……Never ending.

The best part is, the outcome:

Jona & Iz just love their LEGO blocks so much. When they play with their LEGO, they are so creative. So far, I only teach them how to build house, farm animals, car etc. But, not so advance like Dinosaurs, etc. And, the second time, they play, they able to build house even better than me, and start making ‘swimming pool’, bathroom, set house alarm, make farm animal, etc..

This is Iz creation. His 'house' got many doors, windows, and bathroom with alarm system. Got tv set as well, and several beds for people to sleep and sheeps to sleep too.....
This is Jona creation, rebuild it second time after being 'destroy' by Iz when Iz is angry.....half way build(still under construction, I gues)

Doesn’t it look so nice & creative?

And, when they are bored with LEGO blocks, they will start drawing on piece of paper ~ anything that flash on their mind. Jona really able to draw better than Iz, and always end up, he is helping Iz with the drawing. But, before he helps Iz, he will say “Why you don’t know how to draw ar? If you don’t want to draw and keep ask me, then, why Momi need to send you to Art class?”
Fully occupied my fridge space with their creative drawing ~ crab, tree, flower, kite, sun, heart, honey in jar, apple, etc...(upper part belong to Iz and below part is Jona drawing)...

Seeing how their occupied their free time on weekend, I guess I better buy more stuffs esp LEGO blocks/drawing apparatus for them, what do you think, worth my investment on previous toys hor? I think it is time for me to go for some shopping since I have more free time when on biz trip rather than at home. Wondering whether LEGO will be cheap here in Oz/NZ compare to M'sia?
