15th day of CNY....CNY is ending

Well these 2 weeks of CNY sure fly past fast....here we are eating yuan xiao already....and also ah mu's fam is back so today went over their place after Ian's nap coz yest he was asking for jie2 when we dropped by their place....the kids had some fun playing together and esp at playdoh as it was the 1st time Ian attempted on it...guess he was thrilled to see the 'rolling pin' and all the kneading done...he yet to master the cutting skill so some time more before he can appreciate playdoh

Then we went over ah maa and ah gong's home for yuan xiao dinner...all the grandchildren were gathered together (together with AL gu2's fam) and here are the kids playing on the mattress...so decided to gather them to take a shot....only the younger few were saying Cheese while the other ones had preference to stand next to who....well took some time before we could finally capture a shot...guess working with 7 kids not easy man....and the whole hse was filled with noise and most impt warmth =) guess much needed for CNY huh

Then the kids had a feast on haagen daz ice-cream...here's Ian sharing his 'feast' with joy jie2 and this is the only time we allowed him to indulge in this coz the other kids were at it too....well he really knew what is 'precious', he was holding on tightly to his cup and refusing to let go even when mama says 'No more' sigh....guess gotta go for less visits to ice cream feast now hhmm

And here marks the end of CNY....this has been a gd yr be it Ian's ang bao (guess we never received this much as a kid so how blessed are kids these days....or maybe we made more rounds this yr or more pple are getting hitched??? anw thanks for all your blessings on this little boy, he would most prob appreciate the red thingy next yr....now he only knows to pass the red packet to mama and sometimes even rejecting it coz of distracting other more fun play) guess gonna be a tough yr ahead for economy and also maybe at home...coz Ian's going to have his 2nd bday and dunno whether terrible 2 is on its way but guess with family's blessing, we will make it thru esp with God's guidance. So have a gd yr ahead, folks and greetings from the Iong family =)
