Body mass

We took a weight check of the boys at the airport last week:
E - 13.6kg
C - 20kg

They just loved how the numbers joined on the luggage scale.

CNY goodies

I decided to try out frying the crabsticks today - the last I had this snack is when my maid was around and she fried these almost once a month. So first thing this morning before 8am, I have completed peeling the crabsticks into slices and air-dry them for more than 2 hours before I start deep-frying them.

2 packets of crabsticks turned out only these much - in the end, I only managed to fill half a bottle of plastic container for CNY. Not too bad an effort!

8 year neighbour

Our 8-yr neighbour has decided to shift out of their home to stay with her mum given that it was too much of a strain on their end to ferry their girls to and fro from home to mum's place everyday. They got their place sold recently and had shifted out last week.

I took some pictures of the boys with En Qi since they had been keeping each other occupied on some weekends (communications through the gates most of the times). And her signature calling to Ethan was,"Friend...."

Wonder if the boys understand that they are not going to see her so often going forward

 

I wish them well.. it's not easy bringing up twins (En Qi's younger sisters) so hopefully they both have an easier time after the move. It's weird to know that you will have a new neighbour soon.. coupled with the fact that they are non-locals make me feel that I have to adapt to whatever culture that we will get to see.. actually, this is going to be my first time receiving new neighbours..
