A Loving Couple

It is very rare that Jesse is willing to hold someone's hand and walk around anywhere for anything more than 5 minutes. Most of the time she will want to be carried by Mummy or walk around everywhere on her own.

It was to daddy's surprise that Samuel held her hands and she was very happy smiling while walking everywhere with Samuel. Daddy immediately seized the moment to capture a few shots of them walking everywhere, like a loving couple.

Yummy Desserts

While we were in KL, we went to The Loaf at Pavilion. The desserts were so yummy, especially the durian flavoured ones, our favourite hehehe....

Camera

We bought McD camera toy for Samuel. He loves it very much and he never stop taking photos for 3 days. Yes after 3 days, he stop playing with it.

Since he likes to play with the toy camera, we decided to let him play with daddy's digital camera. He got even more excited and started to shot photos.


Samuel loves his toy camera so much till he wanted to take a photo of it.

Twins?

It has been an amusing encounter for daddy to see Jesse being so impressed by looking at herself in the mirror. Daddy immediately took photos of her.

While taking her photos, daddy felt as if he's taking photos of twins. Have you ever have the feeling like "what if, i have twins" when you look at your child looking into the mirror?

Daddy can't imagine how life would be with twins. hehe

Our Little Tumble Tot

Jesse is a cheeky little girl. Everytime we ask her to sleep she will lie down and do some stunts. She will roll here and there, kick her feet up and down and try to do sommersault.

We finally managed to capture her in half action.

The Little Equestrian

A Shetland Pony ride, right from our home? Yes, not just that, Samuel also rode on a life size horse too.

Initially daddy was kind of worried if Samuel will be afraid of a life size horse. Usually kids finds it a little larger than the horses that they have seen in pictures or even from the TV.

When daddy told Samuel that there will be a pony coming, Samuel was so excited. He went downstairs to the living room and asked daddy "Where's the pony, daddy?"

When we brought Samuel out of our home, he went straight to put on a helmet before he rode on the small Shetland Pony (the small miniature horse).

After the pony ride, Samuel was even more excited to ride on the life size horse.

To The Dentist

One of the things we did while we were in KL was to bring Samuel to the dentist. This is not the first time he went for checkup but it is the first time he had treatment.

He has been to the dentist just for routine checkup twice. His teeth is abit yellowish and he has tooth decay. And since we have time while we were in KL, we brought him to see a dentist.

It was to our surprise that he was such a good boy and he co-operated well with the dentist. He had 2 tooth decay, both at the bottom of his wisdom tooth, so the dentist did some filling on his teeth.

Maid

We have finally confirmed a maid. Since our maid left, we are waiting for a replacement maid from the agent. I contacted the agent at least 3 times a week to check for if they have any maid's bio data. Apperently, they keep telling me the don’t have any. The agent have not been very honest with us. Do you believe within these 2 months they don’t even have 1 bio data? No bio data means no business.

One of those days, daddy contacted the boss, and was told that I have been VERY FUSSY about choosing a maid. I was fuming mad. How can I be fussy when they don’t even have any bio data for me to choose? I kept calling them and they kept telling me that they have no bio data.

Later, I found out that they actually do have a number of bio data but they kept on lying to us. I suspect that they are intentionally trying to delay in providing us with a replacement maid. Reason being, if a new customer confirms taking a maid from them, the customer will need to pay them agency fees, which we do not need to do so because we have already paid them agency fees a few months ago. At the same time, we have been paying them a much higher salary for the temporary maid that is provided by them.

We are glad we have confirmed a maid. I have actually decided to look for a filipino maid, but since I can’t find any, I have to stick back to Indonesian maids. We can only take part time filipino maids to clean our house.

We pray that the new maid will turn out to be someone similar to our temporary maid. Our temp maid is a rejected maid and she has been working for 5 families (excluding us) and 5 of them have been complaining about her to the agent. However, we find her capable of handling our children, housework and cooking.

We confirmed the maid on the same day we went back to KL ie. 18th June. We shall see how long does it takes for her to arrive.

The Missing Luggage

Since it was school holiday, I decided to take leave and go back KL for a week. We left Brunei on Wednesday evening via AirAsia.

Both the kids were still manageable when we were in airport and throughout the whole journey, although Jesse was kinda demanding. Most of the time, Jesse only wants me, which makes me even more tiring.

We have alot of small hand luggages when we were on the plane. I have a handbag, daddy has a messenger bag and the portable dvd bag, both Samuel and Jesse has a bag each.

All our hand luggages were at the bottom of our seats. When the plane landed, we forgot to take one of our luggage. We forgot about daddy's portable dvd player that comes with a bag. This was daddy's father's day gift which mummy bought a few days ago.

We only realised it when we were about to reach our destination while we were in KL. Since it was so far to LCCT, it took us another 1 hour to reach the airport again.

We reached KL at about 11pm and by the time we rushed back to LCCT it was already about 130am. It was really to our disapointment when it was no longer on the plane.

Initially, the ground crew refused to check for us. According to the Lost And Found staff on duty, 30m after the plane landed, the cleaner will have to clean the plane and the cabin will be closed and locked by the engineer. No one is allowed or have the authority to open the aircraft.

After some time of “begging”, the Lost And Found staff assist us to contact the person in charge. After awhile, he allowed us to go into the plane to check for ourselves as they can't find the bag. When they sent me to the plane, I was surprised that the cleaners are still cleaning the plane, as we were told that the aircraft has been closed and locked!

I am not surprised that it went missing. The player came with a small bag which can be easily been taken by other people. We were really disspointed with the missing dvd player.

Without the player, it makes us even more difficult to handle the kids. If we have the player, we can at least have some quiet time when they watch their favourite cartoons.

Since daddy really liked the player so much, while we were in KL, we bought another one. Yes, the same one except for the colour.

Home Sweet Home

We just came back from KL yesterday night. We were there more than a week for holiday. It was a tiring trip as we do not have maid to assist us.

Will blog about our trip later. We are still busy as my brother followed us back to Brunei for a few days holiday.
