This is one of Dana's fav books. It was given by one of Mummy's colleague. In this book, Pepo and Lolo (a beaming pink pig and a yellow chick) are best of friends. But like friends in real life, they sometimes they get mad at each other, but never for long. Drawn in the simplest detail but bursting with expression, this story is enjoyable enough for young children to read over and over again. This delightful little book is very colourful and easy to read. But what makes it so special is that the … [Read more...]

My adorable Princess at 16 months
When people say time flies, I believe parents couldn't agree more. Our princess turned 16 months on 5 Aug and I've only found time to document her milestones today.

At this age, toddlers are trying to make sense of the world around them through language and hence, they love to mimic our actions and words. Dana does this everyday, much to our amusement.She's growing by leaps and bounds esp … [Read more...]

Last Sunday, we finally found the time for the excursion. We reached ECP at … [Read more...]

Dana Tours Bali – ALiLA Ubud
This post came so late due to a fault linked to blogger's incompatibility with the proxy server of our broadband provider Singnet's connection.

Now that prob's been solved, I am more than happy to share the rest of our Bali trip report. Feel so bad that it's almost 2 months overdue.
