B had to work today. I had a bit of me time after work before I picked Izzie from school. So I did housework. I cleaned up our bedroom counter tops which I felt so unmotivated to clean them every time because they were just so filled with things. And I did this in such hot weather! I washed a load of laundry and hung them. Then I got ready to pick Izzie from school. I felt proud of myself for overcoming procrastination and doing something out of my comfort zone for my family. 

I brought Izzie to the tortoise pond and playground after school. She absolutely enjoyed herself. I am so proud of her (and she knows it) for attempting to climb the rope obstacle successfully all by herself. Yay!

  
  
I was very blessed by the mommy and her girls. This mommy excuted very good playground safety rules. She would ask her girls to give way/time to “meimei” (Izzie) and not to shake the rope so meimei can navigate her way. Very encouraging to meet someone so positive and friendly and courteous. Because of that I think, Izzie who was afraid of climbing the rope climbed up to the 2nd level 3 times on her own. Awesome job, Izzie. 

I cooked dinner for Izzie and she was fuss free through the night. She fell asleep for the night pretty easily too. I am thankful for the angel in her. 🙂  

  Love this new jammies on Izzie

It was our 5th ROM anniversary. We pre-celebrated during our Pan Pac staycation in June. 🙂 I remembered the 1st anniversary celebration was grand with staycation and surprises and gifts. The celebrations grew simpler over the years but still sweet! 

This year we had a simple breakfast at home, went out to shop for Izzie’s 3YO birthday @ school celebration stuff (coming up in 2 weeks!), ate lunch and shopped for groceries. B cooked up a celebratory meal of steak, roasted vege and mushroom cheese while I cooked watercress soup. What weird combi? That’s how Izzie likes it. She is a true Cantonese who loves soup!! 

It doesn’t matter that the dinner isn’t at some costly restaurant. I just love spending time with these two precious family members eating all our favorite food 🙂

Izzie the cat lover. Today she went on to say, “whiskers, ears, tail” and touched the respective parts of the cat. I allowed her to “sayang” this cat because she fell in love with this since she was very young and the cat allowed her to touch it without scratching her. I think the cat was a little intimidated by her affections though. Haha!
