Sorry It's been so quite here. Lots of things happened in between leaving me no time, or desire to blog.
The husband will be starting a new job soon. Next Thursday in fact. Nothing too exciting but we're happy nonetheless.
The bug has taken to climbing nowadays. She will climb anything she can. Especially when you're not watching. What am I suppose to do to stop her from doing so? Today, while I turned away for a while, she climbed halfway up the stairs and was already at the landing when I looked. We do have a gate installed at the top and the bottom of the steps. So happened that the gates were opened at that point in time. She is quite careful about the climbing though. Doesn't mean I'm not worried.
Just finished knitting a baby hat that is to be gifted to someone. It only took be about a month. Hah! Slow poke. Might just be my short attention span.
I recently purchased 2 Dollcena's. For those not in the know, it's a doll that looks very much like a blythe which is produced by Tomy. The blythe doll is produced by Takara. But, Tomy and Takara recently joined forces so they're from the same company. The blythe doll is a doll with a big head and slim body. It's quite the thing to collect. I bought the dollcena because I am cheap and can't resist buying things on offer. The dollcena's were on offer and were going for RM75 for 2 whereas the cheapest blythe doll was RM60 each. You do the math.
This was my first foray into the world of big headed dolls anyway so I figured I'd start small. I didn't know there was a difference between the blythe dolls. It seems what you want to buy is the 12" dolls. The 4" dolls are for those who can't afford the 12" ones. The 12" dolls are going for RM300 each. I was surprised to see the price but after doing some research (okay, a lot of research. Fact, that's all I've been doing since I bought the dolls), the price is quite reasonable. I need to get one. Makes pleading face at the husband
They say, the world of blythe is a slippery slope and one is never enough. I'm sure I will be happy with just one. Right? Hmm..
Just realized I didn't blog about raya. Well, here's a quick recap. Spent 1st, 2nd and 3rd raya in Kedah. Yes, the journey back was a pain, highway jammed. Went back to JB on Thursday and was there till Monday. Iliya was sick most of the time in Kedah and slightly sick in JB. She's still having the sniffles but she's getting better.
The parents had a little open house on Saturday so I baked some cupcakes and cookies which were well received. The babe had a fun time playing with her second cousins but was very tired at the end of the day. Tired baby = Cranky baby.
Speaking of cranky, she's been rather clinging lately. Everyone says it's because she's unwell. I guess so. Maybe she's tired of being sick. I do hope it's temporary though because there are days when my patience is stretched thin.
Well, this is all I have to report for now. I'm sure I have some photos to post. Will do that when I find them.
