This blog has been sleeping for a long time. The reason is I have already retired from designing at Oscraps. I do still blog and scrap but not here anymore. You can find me at mylittlehappybox . I post my new layouts there and I’m really happy because I get to scrap more again. I love designing and the freedom to create and hopefully when I get to find time I can still come back and share my work with all of you. For the mean time, you can stop by and visit me at my new home. See you around!

Snip! Snip! Snip!

I gave my little Coco a haircut a few days ago. I can’t say that I am getting better at it but at least I spared myself from going all the way to Deira and wait for a kiddie haircut that costs 30AED ($10). Hehe! But even with an uneven ‘do, Nico is still all smiles. I think he *LOOOVES* it! Contrary to my first attempt on cutting Fei’s hair, she hated every second as I trim down her bangs. If she was able to, I think she would have hit me on the face with the comb!

“I LURV it, Mommy!”

Pure Happiness

Yesterday, me, Coco, and my brother went to Satwa Park. I was able to take some photos of Coco on the swing. He looooves it but, it was so damn hot and humid! Winter please come very soon! I got to scrap my fave photo of him. Notice the car toy on his hand? Yep. He doesn’t want to let go of his toy. He doesn’t trust me :)

Quiet Nights

Quiet nights mean I can get to scrap. The only time of day when nobody is pulling my hand to get a toy that was magically placed under the couch or when I don’t have to clean up bread crumbs. The joys of motherhood :)

Anyways, the weather was weird today. We had rainshowers and it’s summer here! It was around 41degrees with a bit of sandstorm and then it rained! So now the humidity level is around 80%! I can feel my hair getting all frizzy and sticky! LOL!

Our weekends are spent like this and when they get too messy or they start to fight on who gets what, I give up and turn on Barney.

Thursday is Date Night

Thursday has become a date night for the family. Last week we watched Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted and just this past Thursday we watched Ice Age 4 Continental Drift. I liked Madagascar better. I think I was the one laughing the loudest and even laughing more than my daughter. Nico was with us also and for now, because he is just two, it is still free so its a YAY for us! This wasn’t his first time in a movie theater. We watched Sammy’s World before but he just slept through the entire movie. I think I did too! All in all, it was a fun night. The penguins and the chimps are still funnay as ever. Hearing from Fei “This is the best night ever” makes me smile. Although she always say it whenever she is happy. On the way home she can’t stop talking and telling me all the scenes that she liked the most and she even made me promise that we should watch Brave. I said yes because I like to watch that too! Am I more excited than her? Maybe! LOL!
Our next date night.

Hooray!

Hooray for a new layout! and pardon the dust on my blog. I know I have neglected my blog for a loooong time. The real reason is just laziness. Have you made a list of things you want to do but when you want to do it you just push it aside and just do some other things that is less important? Well, that is me. Anyways, this post is not about my habit of procrastination. I’m just so happy that I am able to scrap again. I hope this continues. I hope I will be able to do more. Cross fingers!
