Slowly.....

This mini album of mine is coming together. Yes very very slowly indeed. I find that now a these days, speed is no longer on my side, and neither do i have the desire like in the past to just finish a project within days I have started. I find that i take more time to scrap now as compared to before. So much looking through my supplies, so much of deciding in my mind what each project would turn out in my mind (definitely a result of thinking too much). As much as i'm eager to see the completed project, i'm not wanting to just cut, snip and paste to quicken up this process. I take the time to look at the photos, the moments refreshed in my mind, and the right embellishments that go along with them. Gone are the days where creative juices just flows freely whenever I'm scrapping. I'm comfortable with where I am now in this hobby, and how much i enjoy that i have created memories for my family to keep for the many years to come.

Here's a sneak at what's used for our mini get-away album at Sentosa....during Kay's school break, and I was just wondering why I never ever thought of making a mini of this get-away from the start since this is already the 2nd time we're at the same hotel, same activities, just adding Universal Studio Singapore this time round.


Using mostly Sassfrass "Sunshine Broadcast" papers and foldies - can you believe that i used up 2 sheets of the foldies for this project.....and mixed embellishment from Pink Paislee "Hometown Summer" which is great.










Next step are to finish this mini with the photos and I'm done.......


Weekends round the corner, and the last weekend before Kay starts school again on Monday, so we're just going to be spending lots of weekend time just him and me.....


Enjoy your weekends!!

Where was I??

I can't believe this, only 1 post done in June so far, and this would be my next. 2 posts in 1 month.....i miss blogging, and definitely miss catching up with all my favourite blog sites. So much has been going on for me in June, truly this might be the busiest month ever in this year as well. We had my aunt and cousin visiting from Australia for 3 weeks, me being on leave and taking up the job of stay home mom for 2 1/2 weeks, having to work partially during my leave days, spending time with Kay during his school break and the very much anticipated trip to Universal Studio for Kay since it's our belated birthday gift to the little one and in the midst of all these, trying to be scrappy....

I'll let the photos do the talking and how much fun we had as a family of 3, so much needed quality time for Jayce and Kay during our stay at Hard Rock Hotel at Resort World. ** Warning, photo intensive with the same goofy smile from Kay!!**

At Universal Studio's Entrance....our start point before anyone became all hot and sweaty....



*This photo he said was for grandma......him drinking coke (a much forbidden drink)....i just let him indulge just this once.....





*Him at KT's Grill for lunch with the binoculars that daddy bought....i love this place....the interior and food......



* Finally my chance to have a "US" photo......it's very long overdued....



*One of his merchandise at the Dino shop....he literally went everywhere on this day till night with this clippy thing....



*His other indulge - ice cream, and it has to be in vanilla....his favourite. He calls it his "Ice Cream Beard". for your information, Kay has a name for each of his beard that he creates....







*Before his nappy time in the afternoon at Hard Rock Hotel.......pre-occupied with the IPhone.




*At the man made beach at Hard Rock Hotel....he stays dry longer than being wet.....







*His 2nd time on the Luge and the Skyride at Sentosa.....the morning before we head home....






& on the scrappy front....my long overdued project which i finished weeks ago.....Kay's 4th Mini Birthday album (of his 1st time celebrating at school).....my 1st time using DoodleBug Designs....not my usual style since it's super cutesy...but i like how it turned out though. Complete using the full sticker sheet, and like how i can actually finish using something....Papers are completely from October Afternoon's "5 Dime"...


















School break is almost over for Kay....and i've only this weekend to think where else to be bringing him, and what should we be doing in September's 1 week school break (doesn't kill to be planning ahead).....& you know what he asked me last night "Mommy, you have not brought me to the boat hotel yet??" I'm sure you know where that its.....Yup right, The Marina Bay Sands......It left me and Jayce just rolling our eyes when we heard him ask it....LOL



I'm glad i'm back...though still busy with the everday life, I'm hoping to be back blogging more often....


Have a good week you all.....

Monday, June 6

In the middle of.....

* a 2 1/2 weeks of leave being stay home mom but sort of doing not such a good mommy cause I've been still working some days of the weeks doing half days at office, and i feel bad that Kay's been following me to work, and having to find things to "busy" himself with.

*trying to organise and give away some of my scrap supplies to friends around me.....

*trying to pack and tidy my home since I'm home half the time......

*a very busy period at work......starting from tomorrow onwards it's some half days at training till next week, so once again it's time away from Kay again when the purpose of my leave is to spend some quality time with the lil guy....:(((

*a school holiday whereby so far we've been for a night stay at Studio M, and Kaylen's first movie at the cinema - Kung Fu Panda 2, and this weekend we'll be spending it over at Resort World & Universal Studio....praying for better weather.....

*discovering my new Iphone 4 in white.....i'm such a slow one at this....but i'm loving my Iphone so much now for what it can do....the people around me knows that before this I had an iphone but always without the "i"....super under utilised for sure...

*finishing up this mini for Kay's recent 4th Bithday.......


Of what's remaining of my leave days, I'm going to get some time with Kay doing just the 2 of us stuff, and start taking photos......

Loving this weather...and I'll be soon home cuddling with Kay during his nap time. Now is to get myself away from the office to start spending some time with him....

Have a good day ahead :))))
