Welcome Bond! ,#15

Okay, day 2 the puppy is here.So far so good. He is been toilet trained from the breeder and thats a relieved for us. We really worried bout him peeing and pooping on the carpet, but now its all good. Sleep, he sleeping with us in the room but not on our bed (he sleeping on the crate) and we hoping next week we will move the crate in the lounge room. The only reason we did this is only because he is crying the frist time we put him to the crate. Just like a baby separation anxiety, which my Lil R is experiencing right now!

Look, how cute he is!
This particular breed is very affecionate especially to their Boss (for Bond,Im his boss). He following me everywhere I go in the house and sleep on my foot when Im at the desk. Such a cute little creature!

Exciting News, #14

Hoorayy! Finally is the 28th, thas mean we are going to pick up a puppy tommorrow from a breeder. After a long wait (4months!) finally we can have him tommorrow. Im so excited and Im curious with Lil R reactions.
We set the pup bed etc and Lil R seems so interested in them, he even try to lay down on it. We will be getting a French Bulldog. I love love love dogs!! And French Bulldog is one of the most adorable breed (and its not easy to get them aswell, usualy you have to call a few breeders and be in their waiting list if you want a pup). Ok, lets move on! I got caught up here.
This week been such a very long week for me. Lil R teething,crying,being so active and he drained my energy. We did not managed to do a lot of stuff even missed playgroup and the weather is pretty cold. Snug up in bed, hang around in lounge room and doing freeplay was our this week routine. but thank god its Weekendddddd. So relieved.

More to come tomorrow, fingers crossed Im not busy with the new 'kiddo' in the house. Sleep tight everyone! x

Wet Cold Day, #13

Today was dark,wet and windy. A nice way to stay at home with Lil R. We had fun today at home,doing free play, and I finished my cutting for my quilt. Lil R was so cute today because he was trying to cut some fabrics, he grabbed the measuring tape and put it on the fabric then he also was so quiet (something unusual!) looking at me cutting the fabrics. What a curious boy!
Got the list of kids for Lil J to swap mail from Christie of Pigeon-Pair. So excited cant wait to help Lil J write or draw letter for them.

Now Im watching Grey's Anatomy while typing this blog, so entertaining. I dont watch many television show, not a big fan of telly but this show is soo so good :) Hospital,surgeons, and love story. Something different.
Oh and Im trying to set up flickr album , hopefully I will have it soon!
Have a great weekend.

Officially 1, #12

I abandon this blog and again this one is not for days but 2 months since my last post. Hows that? A lot of things happened around me in two long months, one major thing is my sweet little baby is now officially ONE on the 5th of May! Yes, Lil R is now one year old. Time passed very quick,I still remember the first day I took Lil R home from hospital. Such a joy and now, a year after that, he is grown into a very charming 1 year old toddler that keeping me busy through my days. Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY my darling!

Beside that, Im very slow with my sewing and crafting moments. I do managed to make two patchwork quilted blankets for Lil R but it's just nothing else for the shop. I also do a
lot of reading the last two months and purchased 7 books (yes seven!) from the book depository
. This U.K website give free delivery with no minimum purchased so i saved quite a lot especially when I bought a hard cover book (they sometimes also has a cheaper price than amazon!). I bought a various book from child's book to interior design books.

We also managed to have a week holiday over at the country side in Castlemaine just before Lil R birthday. Ran away from the hustle and bustle city life for a little bit. Had a very nice time the 3 of us and we visited my husband's family who lives there aswell. Did some op-shops hunting (got a few nice stuff) and spotted an $8 ankle boots in immaculate condition! Such a relaxin moments for us and of course, lots of photos!
I can go fo hours here talking my two months time. Next time, I promised to not leave it for too long :)

A Full Day, #11



It is officially a week since my last post. I had a very amusing and fun week! Full of smile, laugh and tears aswell. This week is also Lil R officially first playgroup class. Its been great, a full 2hours class. We join the Sophia Mundi Steiner School, their method and principal is just so wonderful. But Im still learning about the pro and con about this whole Steiner school VS mainstream school. As my background is brought up in private school from kinder thru University while my husband been brought up in Steiner education from Kinder thru high school (except uni), so there is a pro and con for me about this whole thing. But the main thing is I want the best education and enviroment for both Lil R and Lil J.
Besides that, my week went pretty quick it seems weird for me because I expect that days will be hard and long for me because of my mum and Lil J will go home to Indonesia soon. I will terribly terribly miss them a lot especially Little J (Little J been living with grandma the last two years and visiting melbourne twice a year for 3 months stay everytime she come). This house will be so much quieter when Lil J is gone for Indonesia.
This week we also had an unexpected trip to a dog expo, a friend of me pick up and offer to visit the expo and everyone had a good long day! We saw a lot of dogs (I'm a BIGGEST dog lover) and play with some of farm animals. nice sunny day too in melbourne on that day.


How adorable is he?


Today also a very productive day for me, took some pics for the shop and going to list them soon in the next two days. Had dinner with family and brother in-law also bought some magazines for my inspiration. I just cant believe how many baby/kids magazine nowadays. Back in three years ago, modern minimalism babies/kids fashion magazine are still a rare find! Will post some tommorrow from some interesting page in the magazine.
As usual, it is late here in Melbourne and we are one day ahead from the US so it is time for me to take off and saying
GOOD NIGHT! x
