Life made interesting with Transformers.
Are you on Instagram? I have some great news for you if you are. If you aren’t, you should start an account today, and maybe you can follow me (@cherieladie) to find out more! Are you wondering what’s with Transformers and Instagram? It’s your ticket to win one of the three $100 Transformers Hampers that I will be giving away. Did I have you sitting up now? You see.

Thing I love about the kids.
It’s been a long while since I document the kids’ milestones. There is just so much to observe and note down and with two kids, and things does get a little more hectic than I wished for. I was just checking back on the formal milestones for the kids I have written previously. Here’s Jerry’s 19th months (omg, he looked so different) and Jerome’s at 1 year old (he’s turning 2 yo soon!). Somewhat bring tears to my eyes. Where have all my babies gone to? Wanted to note down some tidbits of them at this point in time of their life, behaviours, things, or simply something about them that I want…

Things Jerry Says #23 – He is not a real policemen.
It has been a really busy week for me at work, and I have been making myself turn up at the office much earlier. Work has been fun and I kinda like that I am doing a happy-busy these days. So glad the week is almost coming to an end soon! Did anyone realize that the year is coming to an end soon too? We are down to the last 2 months of the year! Here’s a short post for the week, sorry for the silence! I was in a mall, going to pick up some groceries and had Jerry with me. He was trying to play punk and run…

Our Deepavali Holiday.
How did you spend the mid week pubic holiday last week? We had wanted to bring the boys for some cycling but the clouds were grey and it started pouring even before we reached the park after our lunch. It rained pretty bad and we knew that there is no way we could wait out the rain. As we were driving on the ECP, the next destination that came to my mind was Changi Airport! I love big spaces where the kids can run, and I especially love changi airport because I used to love watching airplanes take off from the viewing gallery when I was a kid, so I…

C is for Cookie..
and that’s good enough for me. For those of you who are following me on instagram, you would have already seen me posting about the cookies that I baked on Sunday. If you aren’t following me, please do follow Cherieladie because I update there almost daily since it requires a lot less effort than blogging, which means.. you’ll see a lot more there! Back to the cookies. Honestly, my first attempt trying to bake some from scratch and I’m glad it turned out alright! I keep seeing Diana‘s wonderful food posts (she’s a fellow mummy blogger and she won the Singapore Blog Awards Best Cooking Blog 2014) and it got inspired…

Things Jerry Says #22 – Do it again! Again!
Der shared this story with me the other day. He was driving the kids home when he was going into a merging lane and the car beside him is crawling slowly. He stepped on the accelerator and revved up to zoom pass the vehicle next to him in order to merge properly and at that point, the car let out a loud… VVRRRAAAOOOOOMMM! Jerry, who is usually very aware of everything while riding in the car started questioning. J (Jerry): Woahhhh! Papa, what’s that?! D (Der): What? J: Your car is very fast. D: Ya, the car in front is very slow, so my car is angry. [he is talking nonsense…

Orange, oranges, and Sunkist!
I attended a cooking event some time back with Sunkist and Cooklyn Inc and almost forgot all about blogging about it till I saw some pictures earlier! It was such a fun event and I feel awful that I didn’t share about it till now! I’ll let you in on a secret, I have always wanted to attend a cooking session at Cooklyn Inc, because I have heard so much about them from all my friends, and I somehow never get the chance to do it! Before I attended this event, Sunkist oranges was just… Sunkist oranges! But what I didn’t know, was that there were different types of Sunkist Oranges!…

Things Jerry Says #21 – It’s SUNNY!
I have bad sleepers. My kids are good for hyper activeness and their ability to stay awake. They love to play and rejects nap times or bed times, especially when we are at home. I am seriously thinking that our playroom is not a good idea after all. Or maybe it is the idea of having 2 boys. They play catching all day and refused to sleep! Over the long weekend 2 weekends ago, I was trying to make Jerry sleep on one of the afternoons so that we can head out in the later part of the day. He just kept running and screaming around the house in joy…
