Hyde park corner

We went out today to Hyde park corner. Since its quite sunny eventhough still felt bit cold. We use the car to go to Central London because when we left the house it was bit cloudy . In sunday there's no congestion charge and the parking in some area is free of charge, so at least we're not thinking to much about the parking (due to long history hubby always got parking ticket whenever we went to central london).

The children love the park alot since its really spacious. Mr. red A he ran everywhere and slept really well tonight since he really burn out his energy to the max. :))






I like Hyde Park Corner especially the memorial park for Lady Diana since it got Rose garden that really beautiful and colourful, in the memorial park they have different types of roses which i found it really calming at some point i do think it look like heaven and who could imagine it was right at the heart of busy city?

But, sadly when we went there today. There's no roses blooming yet so its not that colourful.




I hope you all have a lovely weekend too. :))

Morning nursery trip


This is a typical morning, that we do when Mr.A will have his morning trip when we drop him to nursery.
We send him to nursery that really close to our home, so it only takes us 5 minutes to dropped him.

Me and hubby always went together as family when we drop him to nursery. Just to make sure that he always got quality time with the children eventhough its only few minutes.





Ps. I like this trunki bag, is really cute and useful. Since its material waterproof so i knew when we caught under the rain it will not soaking wet but other thing that i love about this the fact they also really easy to clean.

Paper Quilling

Im thinking to make a decoration around the house.
Surfing around amazon uk and bumped on paper quilling.
Looks therapeutic and fun. So i decided to buy, Quilling paper , Quilling tool , Quilling comb

the patern that i printed out to shaped the paper.


It took me a week (due to lack of timing and energy level that sometimes really low ) to finish it.






Finally this project is done, they quite easy to make, but the key factor on this paper quilling "patience is a virtue".


happy quilling,

Day trip to Cambridge

I havent been to Cambridge before. And really want to go there. Finally last week we went there. Great moment that the weather really warm and sunny. And the view such a classic british view, that really timeless. I felt calm and relax after that.


other thing that i like about spring, is the cherry blossom, tulips, and when its sunny only subtle warmth. 



weeping willow on the river side looks beautiful. 


happy spring!!!

Reflux

I never known such condition called gastro oesophageal reflux ever exist before.
I was like any other mother really happy, having my first baby, decorating his room, buying baby stuff.
Other things that i would never imagine is my baby will have condition that will never being cured with any medicine.
When he's about 2 weeks old, he got thrush in his mouth. After that something funny happened. Whenever its burping time i rubbed his back after breastfed, he will vomiting, i thought its normal for baby to vomit. Another thing that really odd whenever he's vomiting its projectile and once its splatter to the wall, and he always arching his back. I thought its ok.
When he was 4 weeks old i went to baby clinic to check his weight and he didnt gained any weight infact he's losing weight. Thats when alarm ringing.
Went to GP and they told me about reflux. Knowing nothing about reflux i tried to find anything about reflux and stocking up books about children.

I found this book what to expect the first year really useful. Which helping me out with list of medical situation, illnesses that your children might have.
Gp gave us gaviscon but still failed to keep things down. And we tried stay down milk.Yet at  the same time he developing eczema that so itchy, he kept scratching his face until its bleeding.
Whenever he drank formula milk or even being breastfed his skin will got red inflamation that really itchy for him. I started to put him upright on his pushchair and bought bed wedge under his mattress.
Then we tried ranitidine and LF milk plus double base cream.
The things about reflux that really frustrating for me, it made my son look really skinny. Whilst other baby having puppy fat, he didnt have that. Theres one point i got scared to weight him since it will gone stagnant or losing weight.
Omeprazole didnt do the job, nor LF milk, and double base.
Thing got much worst when he's about 4months old. That i decided not gave him any milk or dairy product on my diet and on his diet. Since the eczema got worst, nothing stay down.  Im also wean him from any smooth baby food and make the food more lumpy and thicker.
When he was 5 mos i lost trust to any gp, midwife, and got frustrated. I caught PND.
Hubby manager told him to go to Dr.Sonny Chong. He is consultant for reflux. So we went to New Victoria Hospital.
We tried ranitidine and diprobase cream. By the time he was 8 mos old, my son went thru endoscopy. From there we found that he got condition called intolerance to lactose that causing him refluxing and vomitting.
When he was 12mos old, things much better that he able to keep his food down but he looks really skinny. That time, i carry this big guilt that im failed as a mother.
Eventhough, he didnt vomiting again but he still woke up at night time arching his back.
Theres few episodes woke up night time cried for 1 hour and arch his back.
When he was 18 mos, his able to sleep thru the night, but still failed to gain weight.
I read this book all the time front to back "reality about reflux" and this book made me able to put myself together facing up reflux in my son.

This is the SVG files im using. And already print it out and ready to be cut out on my Silhouette Cameo.


I already make my own shadow box and bought some decopatch paper and glue.



Here's video for you to see how im using my Silhouette Cameo to cut the SVG files.




Im using foam pad to stick the graphics. This project is really easy and straighforward.

They will always be my favourite

This British fashion brand, really knew what they doing, they can do the talk, they can do the cutting, they can do the style, they can also proved to costumer what its really means by talking with quality doesnt always come up with hefty price.

By far, they still my top list for Men's brand. Im talking about Charles Tyrwhitt.
Just accepted their new catalogue. And its blew my mind away. I like the front cover photos and inside they just become feast of style.


At the moment, I saw the trend for Men casual style to work. Hubby been asking me to found him new set of clothes casual style for work. Im sort of thinking "sadly, Charles Tyrwhitt didnt have that". After seeing their new catalogue. Once again they really on the ball. And proved me wrong, again Charles Tyrwhitt pampered their costumer and always update with the trend without being to much mainstream. 

Im ready to buy hubby sets of alots new casual style work shirts that Charles Tyrwhitt got. Oh btw, have you seen their Luxury calf semi-brogue shoes? see this link 
And their Mink desert boots 
Im set my eyes to buy hubby, Harris tweed classic fit jacket and oh my the list is really long. I knew i will spend alots for his casual style clothes.

Storage for my eyeshadow

I do like to use eyeshadow from MAC and Bobbi Brown due to their pigments colour and how easy to blend them with other colour.

Now since i bought the pro pan they need to be put in palette, so i decided to buy Z Palette- Large
This palette got magnetic base so my pro pan easily just put it in and it will stick.

And they have plastic clear lid so i can see my eyeshadow collections.

Best glue for fake lashes

When im using fake eyelashes, can be quite irrittating when the glue didnt do proper job.
Really dislike rubbish fake lashes glue.

lucky as usual Amazon my favourite site for shopping have things that i need. Duo Eyelashes Adhesive


This glue, is really famous among make up artist/ make up lover that good for fake lashes. Long wear and waterproof. I bought the dark tone so it will be left as dark colour rather than clear.

Happy trying.

Farm trip

The weather still gloomy, windy and rainy. But thats quite normal when you live in England especially on Spring time (actually this year just bit odd since it was snowing in early spring and in winter there's not much of snow).

But hey, even though the weather not so promising but going out is much better rather than stay at home. I dont want to catch seasonal depression due to lack of sun. So we went out today to a farm. Its fun to go there. The children love it and we parents enjoy it when the children happy.






We love outdoor activity and teaching children using the real life animal is much better than just a picture in a book. Im wishing by doing this it teaching my son how to appreciate and care about animals.
