How to get Bambi Eyelashes

Here is my secret to fluttery Bambi eyelashes- it works. That's all that matters. I know there are other products that claim they "work" and it's all trial and error for some but I can certainly say that this stuff will definitely give you to-die-for peepers in a few weeks! I've used it in preparation for my wedding and stopped it straight after when I decided to get pregnant. Now I am back on again. I miss my long lashes!

Here is the proof!

This is after two months of using Lilash. My lashes were pretty non existent before so this is pretty good without any mascara.


After. With mascara. It makes a huge difference to how your mascara can work for you. My personal favourite is Loreal's Volume Million Lashes mascara.

Makes any mummy feel gorgeous. Only when we have the time for makeup in our busy lives!

Impulse Buys

Was walking around town and spotted Marc Jacobs "Daisy" perfume on the stands. It was pink and the flowers looked so pretty- I am a sucker for packaging. So I bought it! I have no idea when I will actually wear it. I worry that the smell is too strong for my baby. At least it looks pretty sitting on my dresser!


How cute is this? I love Pacman! Another impulse buy- Pacman wall decals for Lucas's room when we move house in August. I bought mine from Etsy. Or should I go for a Super Mario theme?

Lucas is 3 Months Old!


My little boy is growing so fast before my eyes! I'm not sure whether to cry or be excited? I can't wait till he can start talking- it does makes things more easier for me! At least I will know what he wants instead of trying to work out all his different cries- he has many many cries and puts on his usual grumpy face. Especially after a poo. haha


Now he is three months he is definitely smiling more and recognising people's faces. He knows me and daddy's face and always greets us with a smile in the morning:) So very cute!


He is starting to grabs things now but drops it almost immediately after.


He has a very strong grip!

He also likes to chew on everything- especially likes to drool all over my shoulder and grab my hair too!


He finds his hands very interesting! He can spend many minutes just looking at them!


He isn't interested in Daddy's hands though.....


This is so cute! Hope everyone had a good easter break- I am so looking forward to Mother's Day and having my break. Daddy promised to look after baby while I get some sleep. Yay!

Lucas's New Ride

EMMALJUNGA NITRO CITY-Pro Bordeaux  



Yay! So happy with my new pram cough*cough* sorry I meant Lucas's new pram! haha
After researching on many prams, I ended up deciding on the Emmaljunga brand and the Nitro City was the most sleekest and narrow design out of all their prams. They are a bit more heavier than other brands but more sturdier and it's such a smooth operator. I love it! It's suitable for me since I hardly drive the car so being a bit on the heavy side is just a small disadvantage to me. Got mine from Baby Road for AUD1599.00 and if you're a VIP you can get 10% off. They didn't have it in Black so they showed me the deep purple option which wasn't my first choice but it does grow on you and now I'm glad I got it instead of boring black:) After I purchase some pram liners from Harmony J it will look even more unique! I love the animal safari design pictured below.


While shopping around for prams Lucas was enjoying himself in the Fisher & Price Swing and Glide. Sets you back $329 and it's only useful for the first three months. Lucas was so happy in it I was very tempted to buy it but as you can see he will outgrow it in a couple of weeks!


Lucas on his swing. It is battery operated to swing but he is so big now the machine is struggling to get momemtum to swing! So it has become his TV chair.


He likes to chew on the ears of this bear comforter/blankie. hehe I love to see this face every morning!


Me carrying him in my Baby Bjorn Carrier. It was a life saver until I got my new pram. He honestly doesn't like to sleep in the old pram! These past couple of weeks have been a strain on my back hence my splurge on a good pram. So far so great!! He slept more than an hour in it today and I could finally eat my lunch with my sister without having to carry him in the carrier. He was still sleeping when I finished my lunch and I could even go do a bit of shopping. Shopping for clothes is hard when you have to carry him around. How are you supposed to try on clothes?!

Smiley Lucas

My sister manages to grab a blurry shot of Lucas smiling! He only smiles when I tickle his cheeks:)


Trying to give him a Justin Bieber hairdo but his hair refuses to stay down!


Here is a family pic - we all just woke up!


Made a nappy present for my friend Sarah- it's supposed to be a motorbike haahha


Lucas meets Mr. Octopus! Don't think he likes him yet!

Time Flies!

I was looking back at some photos of baby when he was one month and look at how big he is now! He definitely is to blame for the muscles on my arms! haha


Here he is with Aunty Sharon........so small!


Now he is nearly two months and is awake more during the day. He had his immunisation the other day and eversince then he's been a grumpy lil thing.



Went to Koko Black (my favourite chocolate cafe in town) and tried a chocolate mocha- very rich and sooo yummy! I ordered a chocolate pudding and that was even more yummy! It takes some resistance to not go every week- I need to lose a few kilos!


 Lucas can lift his head up! Yay!


Wow! It's a half smile! It is so hard to get a smile out of this baby!


He prefers the serious look! ahhaah He looks like he is modelling!

"Asians in the Library" Video



Just stumbled on this video on Youtube yesterday and can't believe that this girl has the guts to rant about asians and their annoying habits in the library while she is trying to study. I think it's a very huge generalisation she made and it doesn't apply to all asians. The way she brought the Tsunami disaster into this is so wrong! Although she made an apology- the damage has been done and too late to turn it back. I thought in this day and age people are over this "Ching Chong" and "Ling Long" racist behaviour. It's quite upsetting for me as an asian and I do worry about my child going to school one day.
