Disney On Ice 2010

Mommy To Chumsy — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 06:49:11 +0000

Every day, we pass by a huge billboard along the highway which feature this advertisement.

Ashley would ask us if she can watch this show. Every single day. We do not plan to watch the Disney On Ice because the tickets are very expensive. Plus, we may visit Hong Kong Disneyland later so I guess we better wait till then I think the lil missy will keep asking us when she can go see Princess Aurora until the billboard is taken down or till we step foot into Disneyland. *faint*

can you believe this?

This is Ashley’s first time on a mini-carousel without her mommy…….hahahhahahahahaahaha. The first time she sat on one of these was at IOI Mall when she was 2. She hung on to me for dear life. The second time was when we were in Genting when she was 3. She cried throughout the ride

Actually, Ashley hardly sat on these kind of rides because this nazi mommy won’t allow her. Yeah…I know I am kinda crazy and I never let her go on these rides because I know she’ll ask to sit everytime she sees one. Maybe that’s why she cried last time eh?

This incident happened when we were back in Ipoh during CNY. When we were approaching these rides at the mall, my cousin asked Ashley if she would like to sit and she nodded. So, my cousin got some tokens and Ashley happily hopped onto the horse. There were 3 horses on the carousel and she went 3 rounds just to sit on different horses.

my first round

having a fun time

She’s on a roll here. After the carousel, she wanted to try the penguin ride. She did not even want to leave until daddy who was at another shop checking out the Acer Aspire came and asked her to get down

Pun Chun Restaurant, Bidor

Mommy To Chumsy — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 05:29:04 +0000

Another backdated post. On our trip back to KL after the Chinese New Year holidays, my husband suggested that we have our lunch in Bidor since most of the shops in Ipoh were packed. Well, at first I thought (assumed) that he would bring me to eat the famous Duck Drumstick Noodles in Pun Chun Restaurant, Bidor. I was wrong. He brought us to a little air-conditioned cafe called Coconut Island (or something like this) for Chinese/Thai food. He ate there before with his friends and they all liked the food. However, I find that the food was quite bland. Really didn’t enjoy it at all. I asked hubs why he didn’t take us to Pun Chun since I haven’t been there before and he thought I wouldn’t like it as it’s packed

Anyway, we did go there after our lunch. Yes, the place was indeed packed. However, the noodles do look delicious. At one corner, I saw many people queuing to buy some food. When I took a peek, I saw that they were actually lining up to buy some Wu Kok (Taro Dumpling). I decided to buy some to try. Boy, the wait was long because there is only one person manning the stall and it was an elderly man. He is probably the owner or one of his relatives. I heard that the Pun Chun Restaurant was established in the 1940’s and this place looks more like a old coffeeshop. Maybe they have some kind of Amish fireplaces back then.

Wu Kok from Pun Chun

I bought 4 pieces. They are not too bad but so fattening

What’s a trip to Bidor without buying some guavas? I was tricked actually. I asked the stall owner located outside Pun Chun restaurant to choose a few for me and he gave me some not-so-good ones I’m planning a trip there soon to eat the famous Duck Drumstick Noodles

Registering Ashley In A Primary School

Mommy To Chumsy — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 09:18:28 +0000

Primary education begins at the age of 7 right up to 12 years old. Children who were born in 2005 have to be registered at a local school this year. Honestly, I think we are the slackest parents. Last week, I saw Peggy’s FB status that she has registered Kylie in the primary school and later that day, I read Jazz’s blog about her hunt for Faythe’s primary school. I started to panic a bit (actually a lot) because we have not done anything. We have to be real early to register our kids as space is limited in the schools that we like. I quickly checked with Jazz on the school she picked for Faythe and then discussed with hubs on the school that he prefers.

Can you believe it? We have not even decided on the school to send her. My dad suggested that we enroll Ashley in a school in his neigbourhood since it’s nearer to our office. Oookay….so last Friday, after sending Ashley off to her kindergarten, we went to the said school armed with the following :-

1) Ashley’s Original Birth Certificate

2) Photocopies of the Birth Cert, our Identification Cards and a utility bill as they need to verify the address of the house

The registration process was pretty fast. I didn’t know they are so up-to-date now. I was shown a computer at the office where I need to key in all the personal particulars and then print out the form. Passed everything to the office staff and after she has compiled everything, we left. It took about 15 mins only.

Then we walked around the school to have a look. I think most parents would check out the school before registering their children but we are just the opposite. Slackers! It is a pretty big school with security guards at the entrance. There are many CCTVs installed around the school. I like that I just wonder what is the situation like at the school entrance during dismissal. Maybe I ought to make a trip there to check it out. Just keeping my fingers crossed that Ashley would get to go to this school (results will be out next year) and that we made the right decision to send her to this one

Disney Princesses and My Princess

Mommy To Chumsy — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 02:57:27 +0000

Do you know what the lil missy is doing here?

She’s not practicing the medical coding training courses nor did she have a boo boo on her leg. The lil missy who is very into Disney Princesses now that when she saw a packet of Princess plaster at the pharmacy, insisted that she wants it. After a bit of Bollywood drama which involved some tears and loud voices, daddy bought it for her. RM6.90 for a box *shake head*

The different types of Princess band aids.

A happy camper with her princess band aid

She puts one band aid a day and insisted on going to school with it on her leg. I didn’t check to see how many are left in the box. Probably just a few at the rate she’s going.

more shopping

This is a backdated post. A week before the Chinese New Year, I was at the pasar malam (night market) in my area and I saw a stall which sell many children’s clothing. I went to take a look and was happy to see that this stall is like those factory outlet stores….hehehehhehe. They sell mostly GAP, Old Navy, Gymboree and Disney brand clothes. Of course I started looking for some good deals for Ashley and managed to find a Gap hoodie for her. It cost rm13. Cheap eh?

Floral hoodie

I found another Gap sweater for rm15. Not bad huh?

I always love a good bargain like this Today is Thursday and it’s Pasar Malam night. I hope the stall is open so that I can go look for more things

Shopping At Central Market

Mommy To Chumsy — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 06:58:48 +0000

This is a continuation of my earlier post. We went to Central Market over the weekend as we wanted to take Ashley on a train ride. While there, I came across a charming little shop which sells lots of trinkets, beautiful lanterns and other decorative items for home. I just adore them and we spent quite a while in this shop. Wish I found out about this shop before Chinese New Year. I would have bought a few things to decorate my home for the new year. The owner of this shop told me that many hotels in KL as well as banks like HSBC and OCBC would order the lanterns or table runners from them to decorate their premises.

A look at some of things in the shop. Lanterns with lots of beadworks

Lucky Nonya is the name of the shop

I couldn’t resist when I saw this pair of cute butterflies. It is hanging at my front door’s handle now. Price – rm10

a red dragonfly table runner – rm10

Upstairs are shops which sell batik clothings. My mom bought sweet green batik dress for Ashley

That’s all we bought at Central Market. I would definitely go back and visit the Lucky Nonya again. There are too many nice things in that shop and very reasonably priced too.

After reading about Dinah taking her kids on a train ride recently, I decided to bring Ashley on one too since she has not been on a train before. We took the LRT from Seri Petaling in the morning and headed to Central Market. I should have done some homework before hand and get off at Plaza Rakyat. What we did was took the LRT to Masjid Jamek and then change to Putra Line to Pasar Seni. It was not necessary as we could easily walk from Plaza Rakyat station to the Central Market. Anyway, Ashley was so excited when we were on the train. Everything fascinated her. She would ask questions about the cars on the roads, the buildings and even the motorhome towing signboard she saw while on the train.

Ashley sitting next to por por and looking pretty serious before the start of the journey.

looking out of the window when the train was moving

She was very excited when we had to get off this train and board another one to Pasar Seni. I haven’t been to Central Market for a few years and I am amazed with its new look. The stores are more organized and there are so many things to see there. Will blog about what we bought at Central Market in another post. On the way home, Ashley asked how come we did not ride on those ‘chugga chugga choo choo‘ train…..hahhaahahahaha. Where can we find those trains nowadays eh?
