My Boys and Butterflies.........

Since this is the holiday season, we've decided to bring the boys to the butterfly farm last Sunday. We have been going back to Ipoh as diligently of late due to the impending house renovation. We're stucked in Penang over several weekends now. Mostly for vendor sourcing and buying stuff for the house. Hopefully we could make it on time for the CNY next month.........




* First stop, the dam...forgot the name of the place....

* The main event.......Butterflies......lots of them...

* JD has been waiting for this since Friday...luckily we managed to bring them here...

* JS needs a little coaxing after all his girlish yell........

* Pictures are sweet...but most of the time they are chasing the poor butterflies so that they can give them a good kick...

* Boys will be boys..........

* They are still with the Ultraman era....too much TV...

* JS with his TaiChi moves by the pond.......

* JD the butterfly hunter......

* JS the butterfly whisperer......

* It was a great day well spent nonetheless...........

 

Kampung Boy vs City Boy..........

Once again, I took the boys to the beach. Main reason is to exposed the boys to the nature as much as possible. JD used to dislike the beach but after a couple of attempts he seems to be loving it now. However, JS shares the same trait as his elder brother and to make it worst this lil man is so stubborn it might just take us a couple of more tries...... 


* He loves to throw shells into the sea......

* Enjoying the moment.........That's my boy.....

* Smiling away all morning but wait.....where is JS?????

* JS was crying away in the lil plastic isle we put him on....

* He just refused to budge....and cried "I want to go home".....

* While his Kampung boy brother was busy running around....

* A sign of hope at last...he picks.......

* He dips....................

* That's my boy.........






* Yet, by the time we decided to leave, I asked JS "Do you like it here?"....He said "NO!!!" hahaha

Tears of Joy.........

Note: Last post was 1/2 a year ago...all thank to the crazy new job of mine......

It has been over a year since we enrolled JD in the nursery. Today, all the cries, shouts, sacrifices and hard labour are paying off.
I felt the need to record this so that I can show it to my hero when he is older.
As I was dozing in my favourite bed, enjoying my sick leave, PW called and said: "Today is the prize giving ceremony in school, do you want to check it out? JD got something".
I thought it was the medication at first and had to check twice with PW before I departed from home.
True enough, I saw the trophy and waiting just like the other parents did.

* Year End Trophy Presentation @ My Little Kingdom

 

* While everyone was chilling, my boy was in tears...

 

* Still crying while waiting for his turn.......

 

 

 

* This scene kinda reminded of the huge award show....and to top it all...

 

* JD: "I'm so happy, I wanna faint,....I would like to thank my bla bla bla.....



* He did not complete the ceremony but nonetheless I'm so ever proud of my boy...

 

Our Mini Trip to Taiping............

This will most probably be my first posting this year. Missed the annual resolution & the CNY posting. I'm now in a new job....this job requires me to travel a fair bit.....at least during the initial start up. I left my haven to be in hell........I thought I just needed a nudge in my career.....being too long in a comfort zone is not always a good thing....that aside...I'll find time to talk about that later....

Months ago.......yes months ago, we attended Shirley's Wedding in Taiping....we took the opportunity to hang around the town.....major attractions? The Zoo and the Muzeum......We truely believe kids should always be exposed to these kind of places........not malls and cinema at this age.......

* Always good to see the kids interested in something......


* The elephants should be the same one I saw 20 years ago.........

* Family photo at the muzeum.............

* Yet another one.........

* My boys.......my pride................
