~*~ My Lovable Duo ~*~

We were finally able to bring Toby & Tamy for their full grooming at RPP yesterday morning... went back to Hougang to fetch Tommy as he was joining them there as well... he looks like a corgi now with his fur all long n fluffy so it was time for him to get his 1st full grooming by Marc. Hopefully it will last him until December den all of them can go for another grooming together jus before Xmas and in time for Chinese New Year since it's only a month away.

After dropping the kids off at RPP, we went for Katong Laksa... boy was it yummy... :) After that we had quick a fair bit of arrands to run and that kept us busy till about 4pm or so. We decided to go down to RPP to take a look at how the furkids were doing and we were surprised to see how cute Tommy looks after his grooming! Hahah... its a waste that I didnt take any pics of him. He looks so adorable now... will try to get some pics from Sara... I'm sure she will take pics of him :)

The 2 boys were kept in the holding area while Tamy had her session with Marc and we were in time to see him groom her. I managed to capture some shots of him groomin her while we were there. She looks so white now... :) n I can finally see her beautiful eyes n lashes... somehow she was rather obedient with Marc groomin her n didnt reali moved much!~ :)







We caught her catching a glimpse at us when Marc wasnt looking... she looks kinda fierce in the 1st pic ya... but dont be deceived by that look of hers cos she's actuali goofy n rather silly most of the time. Hahah... =Þ Aiyo... jus look at the cut Marc is so skilled at... I'm reali impressed and pleased with the outcome of all 3 of them :)

Oh!! And I also managed to capture a shot of Toby looking at us while he was in the holding area... heheh... silly fella was rather noisy when we were looking at Marc at work and he started whinning n barking at us... this was the 1st time I heard Toby whinning cos usually he onli either barks or sings to us... hahaha... yesterday it was a whin as if tellin us to get him out of the holding area cos he wanted to be with us waiting on the other side of the room :)





Amongst all the pics I took, I like this one the most... it captured the moment when Marc was sweet talking to Tamy and the both of them were looking at each other eye to eye. Tamy was giving him all her attention and she was being attentive n listening to everything he was saying to her :) He did this a few times to pacify her n make her stay still when she started becoming figitive and kept moving.



Well, we went back to Hougang and I had to take more shots of Tamy cos she looked so pretty n clean :) I didnt manage to get any pic of Toby as he was busy running around the plc with the 2 boys. Terry kept pestering Tamy after we reached home as well... He must be infactuated with her new look... hahaha.... The funny things is that she was all quiet n ok with Terry licking her n being near her but the minute Tommy did the same thing she started growling and barking at him... hmmm... I tink she doesnt reali like Tommy much... :( But that fiesty fella has that never say die attitude and is rather persistent in making her irritated n snappish at him... hahaha... Lovers Tiff? Aiyoz... I hope not... :D




We finally reached home around 10+ and all of us fell into bed before midnite even though it was a saturaday as we were so tired from all the running around. Poor Garry had been driving since 9.30am until almost 8pm... close to 12 hours wor... I tink he can be a taxi driver next time liao... kekek... ~Dardar, Thank U so much for driving us around the whole of yesterday even though you needed yr rest before your reservist starts tmw...~

Well this was how the 2 bums occupied our bed the minute they came on it and found the right spot last nite... hahahah... They must also be as tired as us as they weren't able to get their nap like they always do.... :) Hmm... I cant help but notice that they always sleep in the same position at the same time as well... :)





Woke up this morning and finally I was able to get some shots of Toby after his breakfast... kekek... :) as u can see... his beard gets all wiry n brown after every meal and it takes us awhile to clean n dry it.




Tamy was also getting cleaned up on their grooming table after her breakfast by daddy and she was also being combed as well to prevent her thick fur from gettin all knotty... last day for daddy to be doing this for them and it will be mummy's duty to do this for the both of u the next 2 weeks since daddy's going to be away on reservist... so u guys beta behave well when I do it oso ah... or else.... hiak hiak hiak... hehehe... :D





Gosh~ I dread tinking about the next 2 weeks as I will have to wake up earlier to bring Toby down for his walk, prepare breakfast for both and to clean both of them after that. Evening walks for Toby after work and den preparing dinner and clean them again *siGh* Van beta be coming to stay with me on more days ah... den at least I wont have to wake up so earli :( and to top it off, there is still OT to do the next 3 days! Aiyoz.... I wont be able to do more OTs even if I wan to cos I cant wake up earlier nor can I come home too late the next 14 days... :

Beta not tink abt it anymore... I should look forward to my coming leave end of this month... time will pass faster den.. heheh... here's a final shot of them together smiling for the camera... kekeke... cos i was holding their biscuit while coaxing them to look at me... :)

Weekend in JB

The weekend went by like the wind... one on hand, I was glad that it was over but on the other I was sad as it meant another 5 days back at work... :( Anyway, we spent the weekend at Zon Regency Hotel By the Sea in JB as papa was a member of the hotel and they always get free hotel stay every year. This was a rather last minute trip to celebrate mummy's bday there so we didnt reali have much time to source for any boarders for Toby & Tamy.

We ended leaving the both of them in Hougang for the weekend. We stayed over on Friday nite as it was easier for everyone. Anyway, I also brought Tamy's playpen over so that she could be left in there while the 3 boys were unleashed as Terry & Tommy has this habit of following her around. Wat's worse is that Tommy keeps haressing Tamy all the time. Which can be rather annoying for us as well as for her.

Tamy gets very violent and aggressive each time when she goes to Hougang becos of Tommy. She keeps growling, barking n screaming each time he tries to get near her... and as always, korkor never fails to be near her n protect her if it gets to rough between the 2 small babies of the family.

Anyway before we left, we gave instructions on what needs to be done, how to prepare Toby & Tamy's food and also who needs to be brought out... this started pissing me off as Garry told me that while he was in the midst of tellin Janice wat to do, she simply walked away!! What the heck man! So i went to question n ask her if she knew wat needs to be done n all and she said yes. Ok fine... din wan to qn her further...

To cut the long story short, when we came back, everything was topsy turvy!!! I was damn pissed... 1stly, I told her never to let Tamy out of the playpen but she didnt listen. When we reached home, Tamy, Toby and Terry were not leashed and were roaming everywhere. Only Tommy was leashed. 2ndly, when we called the nite before, instead of bringing Terry & Toby out as instructed, she brought Terry and Tommy!!! WTF sia... den how is my darlin goin to pee n poo?!?! Immediately told her to bring toby out... whether she did or nt was another thing...

Now I'm wondering wat else she let the dogs do or eat while we were away man!! Blardy dumb ass!!~ 3rdly, Toby and Tamy's mouth didnt look like it was cleaned properly as it was freaking dirty... 4thly, which was the worst, the house as well as the dog smelled terrible!!!! I felt like puking the minute I smelled my babies man!!! ArGh!!! To tink that they were smelling nice and were all clean when we brought them over on Friday nite! :( On sunday when I returned, they smelled of pee... almost like how those dog kennel in Pasir Ris Farmway smells like!!!

I was damn pissed and told Garry that the both of them will need to have a bath the minute we got home... which i did as I couldnt stand the stench man... so doggish n peeish!! Damn it... this is going to be my 1st and last time leaving them in Hougang should we ever go on any trips... I cant imagine how they would smell if I left them there for a week... there would be a worse stench on them I'm sure... enaf abt this whole sickening episode liao... tink abt it onli makes me fume again....

I managed & remembered to get some shots of the hotel that we were staying at... these pics below were taken when we were at the lounge area of the hotel on saturday nite... it looks almost similar to The Oriental in Singapore where the lounge is located in the middle and above surrounding the area are the hotel rooms. They even had some coconut trees in the lounge~




This is Sara poseing in front of her soon to be lit up tower of flame... Her 1st Flaming Lambourghini... :)



I managed to capture the flaming moments... :) But it was a pity I couldnt take a pic of the blue flames though...


There wasnt reali much to shop as we didnt reali do any shopping anywhere... =Þ kekeke... but Sara and Van managed to get some mattress for Terry & Tommy from Giant... I didnt need to get any since the furkids already have their comfy beds in our room :) However, I did lay my eyes on this beanie tare panda cushion from the shopping mall that was connected to where we were staying. I hesitated in gettin it on saturday when I 1st laid eyes on it but as there was like a 20% discount, I finally decided to get it on sunday before we left the hotel... kekeke... cos I'm sure I'd regret not getting once I'm back in Singapore... :)

In the end, after spending more than 30 min there, I decided to get 2 large and 1 medium size pandas... there were another 2 more sizes though... the smallest and another that was between the smallest and medium size one that I bought... didnt get it although I was tempted to get 1 collection of all sizes but tot otherwise as there was no space to display it at home. Hahah.... =Þ



I made the 2 kids pose next to my stack of Tare Pandas... hehehe... :) look how messy they are and how much Tamy has grown.... She's almost the same size as Toby liao... Aiyo... I cant wait for their grooming this sat... they look so messy... cant stand it man~

Anyway, as u can see from the pics below, I was trying my best to get a shot of both of them "smiling" but as always, Tamy looks so stern n goofy... finally I tink Toby was gettin frustrated with Tamy as Garry and I kept calling her name n making all sorts of sound jus to get her attention to look at us and smile... kekek... Toby had tt weird look and tilted his head as we were makin all the noise... he must be tinking that the both of us had gone mad... hahah... den he turned to look at tamy n sort of growled... n it was a miracle... it worked cos I finally managed to get a shot of them smiling for me...

~*~ Selamat Hari Raya ~*~

Wishing all my Muslim frenz "Selamat Hari Raya"... and "Happy Children's Day" to all my nieces, nephews and kids that I know... :) We had a reali good start today as we had a good lunch provided by our Malay neighbour who brought over some home-cooked food for us... yummy!! We had kutupat, ayam masah merah (my fav), beef rendang and another chicken dish...

My afternoon was quiet as we waited for my MIL to came over. While waiting, I decided to clear the shoe cabinets and threw quite abit of shoes, slippers n sandals to make space for the ones I jus bought. I also found 2 pairs of new shoes that I hardly ever wear nw... 1 is a brown sequins flats while the other is a black pointy heel... tink I'll ask Lyn if she wants them tmw or nt cos she's the onli other person that I know who has big feet like mine n who will wear such shoes... heheh... hope she doesnt mind though cos it's totally brand new :)

About an hour or so later, my SIL n family came over to hang out at our plc... as usual, Eldin loved playin with the 2 furries whereas Elrina was somewhere high n far from them if they were roaming around. She onli dares come down if they are in the playpen or if there is a barrier blocking them from being near her... kekeke... I also bath the 2 rascals cos they looked so messy... check out the pic i took last nite...



Anyway, I took 1/2 day leave yesterday and was supposed to chill out at home. Who knew that I ended up meeting my sisters in town at 11.30am as we decided to go n get mummy's birthday present since her birthday was jus next week. So off we went to Robinsons to take a look at wat we could get her... in the end, we decided to get her a bag from...



Well, at least it was shared by the 3 of us so it wasn't too bad... den as I was lookin and lookin, the sales person said that they also had purple in that model... and i was like huh!!! Oh dear... so i looked at my sisters and said... "How about an earli birthday present huh?" hahaha.... n so that was how i got my purple Longchamp bag. After we made payment, we left Robinsons only to return minutes later cos Van & I decided to get the same bag for Sara cos she kept lamenting about the red one... Poor Van!!~ Had triple bombs in a matter of minutes as she had to share for all 3 bags... kekeke... :) I dread to tink of hw much I spent yesterday...

Acutuali, I couldnt decide between the long handle n the short one as I like to carry bags both ways. Heheh... In the end, I msged Zhi n told her to spread the news that I wanted the short handle one in red... hahaha... :) Hopefully I'll get that for my bday present from them... I oso ketoked Mr Lee for my bday present liao... I told him I wanted the wristlet from Coach n he said ok too.... YiPPy!!~ Den i dun haf to pay for it liao... kekek... though Priya had oredi ordered 1 for me... :) Hahahah.... order 1st discuss later... :D

After a whole day of walkin around town yesterday and after all the buying, these was wat we had to carry home... kekek... good thing papa came to fetch us frm town or else I would have died man~ heehee.... we went for dinner at New York New York at Lot 1 and met Mr Lee there... After dinner, all of us went back to my place for a movie marathon... not before we took a pic of what we bought and we also decided to give mummy her present.






Kekeke.... we were busy checking out our stuff and these 2 were also kapoing around sniffing at everything we bought... den they both lay side by side and I managed to get a pic of this sian look on both their faces... kekeke... sorrie darlins~ Mummy didnt get anything for u this time wor.... next round ya... :) I promise... *MuAckz*
