Lac de Madeleine


Stopover at the supermarket to load up on cold drinks cos its Sooooo..... HOT!





Mei mei always drifts off to sleep very soon after we start "gai gai-ing"

 
Nyx studying a pinecone






Nya wondering when on earth she can run around like her older sis


"Mummy biscuit please.... please lah....please lah......"


Walking carefully towards the gaggle of geese with crackers in her hand


She's actually walking in reverse towards me after throwing the crackers at the birds



Trying her best to get me to go out with her (use the "act cute" method)


See the tents and rides being set up?


For today's excursion I took Nyx to the lake next to the casino near our place.  In english I think you just call it Lake Madeline, haha.  Hope I'm not wrong.  
Yesterday I taught her how share her crackers with the birds, so today when she saw a whole bunch of ducks and geese on the lake she kept asking me for the biscuits which I always keep in bag cos she wanted to feed them.
She also learnt the difference between the sounds that roosters (cockle doodle doo), ducks (quack quack), small birds (tweet tweet) and geese (honk honk) make.  She can tell you by now the various sounds farm animals make.  And ask what papa says she will say "go......room!" (short for go to your room" haha.  She will also tell you mei mei says "Ong eh" and mummy says "gai gai time!".  Honestly I have no freaking idea where she learned the last 3 from.  I laughed my head off when she answered me what papa and mummy say.  
And from Hi 5 she learned that babies say "goo goo gaga".

On our way back to the car we had to walk through a forested area laden with pine cones so she picked a few up and learned to identify them. We also came across this dried up branch which she pointed out to me and said "pang sai, eeeeee, chou chou".  Well, I guess it really did look like dog poop. Haha. Anyways I didn't wanna pick it up and tell her it wasn't cos one fine day she might pick up a real piece of dog poop and tell me its a branch.  I'll just wait till she's older, haha.  

I also noticed that workers weresetting up lots of tents and rides all around the lake, so I guess there's gonna be carnival to go to again this weekend! Whoopee!!!!

Meridian Facelift at Body Inc.

Image
Nothing beats getting a pampering session done at the end of a long workday. But if it’s one that gives you a face-lifting effect, I think that right about makes it one of the best ways to end the day! I had the chance to receive this pampering treatment at Body Inc. where we were also introduced to the line of products used and carried by the brand. Within their product line is the Happy Series blended oils which are specially formulated using natural and organic remedies.  I got to use the Happy Lash blended oil which not only  removes eye makeup effectively, but after using the oil for the past few days I can actually feel how it doesn’t dry my skin like regular makeup remover does, and it nourishes my skin at the same time. What’s even better about this oil that is rich in Vitamin A, E and Omega-3 is how it also promotes lash and eyebrows growth!  Jacelyn demonstrating the use of the Happy Lash blended oil. Can’t get enough of this blended oil that’s so good for my lashes and brows

My Sculptra Journey with Halley Medical Aesthetics: Final Review (Fourth Visit)

Image
  Since the start of my Sculptra treatment at Halley Medical Aesthetics till the final review with Dr. Terence Tan , I must say I’m very impressed and the results exceeded my expectations. I should point out that I initially didn’t expect much work to be done and was just happy where I was. But the fact is, we don’t know what we don’t know. And that’s why there are experts right? Just like how I’d tell my clients and students that the aches and pains that they feel every day is not normal although they tell themselves that its part and parcel of getting old. I now appreciate so much of what Dr. Terence Tan pointed out to me the first time I stepped in for the first consultation. Because looking at the pictures from my final review months after I did the treatment, I was really blown away (in a good way) with the results. Take a look at where I started and the end result now. I think the images speak for themselves. Before Treatment             After Treatment My jawline is noticeabl

The IDS (Innovative Dermatological Solutions) Journey - Third Visit

Laser Treatment with IDS Clinic  Isn't it true? When we see an improvement to our skin over time we can get into the mindset that its good enough and that's the routine that we need to stick to. Contrary to that, our skin is constantly ageing and taking longer to regenerate as we get older. So once in awhile, a little something different can help us potentially see more improvements.  I've never been one for lasers before, and my first time experiencing it was with IDS Clinic this year. Yes I'm in my 40s already and why haven't I tried it you might ask? Well, I'm a chicken when it comes to having laser treatments on my face. Maybe its the scary stories I've heard from the time I was younger, but yeah, that's really the main reason why I never tried it before. Till Dr. Ian Tan from IDS Clinic recommended it as my treatment on my third visit here.  Quite honestly I was a little scared and skeptical, but he assured that it would not be uncomfortable. So
