When hubby was away for a few days this week, both Justin and Isabelle kept asking where was papa. I told them that daddy had to work away in KL for a while, but he would be back soon. Nonetheless, they still don’t have a sense of time, and it’s not easy to explain to them about days yet.

They have got used to playing with hubby before bedtime and horse riding on hubby is their favorite game. When hubby’s not around, Justin asked, “Mommy, where is horsey? Why is papa not coming back yet? I want my horse ride. I cannot go to sleep without the horse.” See? His daddy is a horse to him. LOL!

So, I told hubby to come home early this evening. I will be out for yoga, and he can take care of the kids by himself. It’s their father and kids moment, and it’s best if mommy is not around. I just hope that it’s not going to rain this evening, if not, hubby will have to think of a way in keeping the kids occupied.

My kids love to go to Oldtown Kopitiam and so am I. However, hubby is getting sick with it since we go there almost every weekend. He’s out of idea on what to eat as he has basically tried everything, but his prince and princess want to go there, what to do?

Daddy, this place is nice mah…

It’s funny to see someone who’s not really particular about food being reluctant to eat at the outlets with cheap and nice food. So, papa, here’s a photo of Isabelle “begging” you to go there again as soon as possible…

Daddy, we come here la, I will give you a kiss. Muak muak…

Nah, faster say my kids are cute. LOL!

Hubby came back yesterday evening and I brought the kids to pick him up. As usual, they missed papa and played with him the whole night until bedtime. We chatted about Cambodia, and let’s see if he has any business deal there.

Hubby bought back some handicraft bags for me, and some chocolates for the kids. As usual, I always wonder what makes him pick those things he gets for me? LOL! That’s why I prefer to buy my own stuffs and claim from him later, he’s just not good at picking gifts for me.

Anyway, we will be having a short break again this weekend. It’s time for quality family and later our honeymoon vacation in Langkawi.

MIL said we have too many things in the room and it’s not safe for the kids to play in it as they might easily tripped over and get hurt. Isabelle fell from the sit up bench a few times since the day she’s mobile. But hubby insisted on putting most of his exercising equipment in the room so that he can work out whenever he wants.

Exercise is very important to him. He likes to be muscular and he has been working out since the day I know him. If you think I will be doing more sit ups as comparing to him, you are wrong. He’s the only one using the sit up bench, not me!

Besides that, he takes some body building supplements too so that he can easily build muscles. He buys his stuffs from the shops, but I am not sure what is the brand name that he’s taking. If you are interested in muscle building, you can check out TestoXterone from Bodybuilding Supplements @ Zupplements.com that offers more testosterone which is needed to promote muscle growth.

This site has a few other muscle building supplements as well, but if you are considering, try to get those that are free from steroid if possible since they have products which can be used as steroid alternatives. By the way, if you have any question, you can just call the toll free number at 1-888-987- 7748 for more information.

Honestly, I’m not sure if hubby is interested, but I will just let him know about the website. I’m clueless when it comes to body building and I prefer to practice the more relaxing yoga than putting my hands on the dumb bells!

I asked hubby last night if he could still remembered what he promised me 8 years ago. He said that he couldn’t remember much and I was not surprised. I reminded him that we will be going to Hawaii on our 10th anniversary of courtship, which means it’s only 2 years from now. He looked puzzled and asked, “Did I say that?” O.o

See, he can’t remember a thing! But I don’t care, I remembered every single word he said so I’m going to plan a trip 2 years from now. If he’s not coming, he will still have to pay for it! LOL! But what will an anniversary trip be with him? Of course he will have to come along.

I know he’s busy, but if possible, I would to have a long stay just like my blog buddy Doris. She’s going away for the whole month in November, and I would to have a long hawaiian vacation just like that too. It would be nice to stay for a month in Hawaii and truly relax ourselves there.

This resort, Kanaloa at Kono, looks really nice. It will be nice to stay there for a few days. But if the trip is as long as a month, I think I will look for a few rental homes and switch places after a few days. Then we won’t feel like wasting time traveling around to those tourist spots. If we are visiting Maui, we will stay there, and the same goes to Kauai, Oahu or the Big Island.I will get all the traveling tips from Doris later, after she comes back from hers. I just can’t wait for this trip!

Hubby has a lot of drinking sessions with his business partners and golfer friends. Believe it or not, most of them are smokers. I really hate the smell of his clothes when he is back from all his outings. I don’t smoke and I have never fancied the smell of cigarettes. I just don’t understand why people would spend money on cigarettes to pollute their lungs and die faster. I asked hubby this question too, but he has yet to give me an answer!

Even if he is a social smoker, I hope that he will quit smoking totally. Being in a circle of friends who smoke doesn’t mean that he has to be a smoker too. There are various ways of quiting, you can either choose medication like Zyban or Chantix, or you can do it the holistic way by meditation or determination. No matter which way you choose, as long as you are focus and determined in quiting, most of the time, you can succeed.

So, I hope that hubby will seriously think about this. Even if he wants to get Zyban, I don’t mind paying for it!Luckily he never smokes in front of the kids, if not he will be a very bad influence to them.

It’s easy to tell if hubby is playing golf early next morning. He will pack his things before he sleeps and head for the sack as early as possible so that he will be able to get up feeling fresh. I’m a night owl. By the time he wakes up for golf, I have only headed for my sleep not too long ago!

He goes to the golf range too for practice. He hasn’t found the perfect golf swing for all his irons and drivers yet, but he is working on it. I guess he should just join any online golf school to learn more about how to improve his swing and lower his handicap to 7 or 8. He is a single handicapper now, but he wants to do better than that.

If you are wondering if I play golf as well, the answer is “I used to play golf, but not now”. I’m afraid of premature skin aging, but when the kids are older, all of us will play together. That’s what hubby has been hoping for.

The light at the entrance of my room has not been functioning for months. I know that I can easily change the light fixtures if I want to, but I prefer to leave this chore to hubby. So, now you know why it took so long to get it done? He is one of those slow and easy type of men. *sigh*

Hubby went out to get the light bulbs last night to fix the light. But little that he knew, he got 2 light bulbs of different sizes. LOL! Like that also can happen. Wa lau leh…

Only one bulb…

 

This bulb is too big. So what to do with it??? It doesn’t fit any lights in my room.

Too big to fit in

Anyone needs a bulb? I have a spare here.

I was worried about hubby being very attached with Justin, while Isabelle was being “neglected” as she is more attached to my nen nen me. But lately, I’m seeing a lot of improvement in daddy and daughter relationship.

Last week, hubby took her grocery shopping without Justin and I. They went off after 8pm, the time when she is most attached to me until bedtime. I was wondering if hubby could handle her well, but he said she was very good. She said obediently in her car seat at the back and didn’t fuss at all. When they were shopping, she helped to take the Yakult and walked by herself, until they paid the stuffs at the cashier. For a 15 months old, a pack of Yakult can be very heavy.

A few days later, they went shopping again, and came back happily without any unhappy crying incident. I was very amazed! In fact, she likes playing with hubby when hubby and Justin are playing their usual game. She didn’t come to me immediately for nursing during bedtime, but played and read with hubby and koh koh. I joked to hubby that if she becomes like Justin, I will be very FREE! Even if this means hubby will be more tiring, but he enjoys the daughter and father moments too.

This evening, they went to the park without me, and I had 60 minutes of private time for blogging and knitting. Wah!!! Do you know how good that 60 minutes was? I even took a short nap! So, I don’t need Kissimmee vacation to cheer me up today.

Justin is very close to his dad. Whenever hubby is around, he will cling on to him like a koala  bear, and hubby will give in to almost 99% of his demands. I have always complained that he is spoiling Justin, and sometimes, it’s like favoritism.

So, hubby is trying to spend more time with his little girl when Justin is at school. We bring her along for breakfast now, and she likes it. Previously, Isabelle took a few naps in the morning, but now, she can delay it until after breakfast.

This morning, I took a few shots of her playing with daddy. Yes, koh koh is at school, if not, he will be “grabbing” daddy. It’s really one of those rare moments of daddy and daughter, so I got to capture this special moment.
