CNY 2015

There is no doubt that kids are the happiest during Chinese New Year with the ang pows, food, fireworks, playtime with cousins and friends etc. This was Helene's first CNY and she learnt how to gesture "gong xi gong xi" just in time for it too! :)

The kids were already in a CNY mood a week before and insisted on wearing their cheongsams out just to have froyo!


The day before CNY, we made a last minute trip to Queensbay to pick up some stuff, and the girls were posing next to the CNY decorations at the mall.


On the first day of CNY, we went over to my parents' place for breakfast and we took a nice family shot with all of us.


Us and the girls. Heidi is wearing another cheongsam which my mother bought for her from China.


Helene and I in my floral top from Zalora which I paid only RM9.00 for because I had a voucher :)


On the 2nd day, it was more visiting and eating and the kids got to play fireworks at night. Even Helene liked them too! Surprisingly she was not scared by the loud firecrackers which were going off everywhere and didn't even turn a hair.


This was on the 4th day where we took my parents to Budan's Brew Coffeebar for breakfast. Another Zalora top which I didn't have to pay anything for this time (I keep getting vouchers!) :) This is how I save on my CNY shopping haha.


At night, we had choo char dinner with Hubby and his family. Lots of food again and Helene enjoyed it too! She prefers to eat our adult food nowadays compared to her porridge and oats. So when we eat out, I usually give her rice with a lot of soup to soften it and maybe some carrot or tofu if there is any. She has 4 teeth coming out on top in addition to her 2 bottom teeth so she can chomp away without much trouble.


CNY 5th day - we attended Hubby's office "start work" day. My girls and I at my parents' place before leaving.


I asked Hubby's partner to take a nice family shot of the 5 of us. She took a few, and this was my favourite one.


In the evening, we had buffet dinner at Cititel Hotel to celebrate Hubby's twin nephews' birthday. Lots of selfies!


Back to reality today cos work has officially started. Wishing everyone a very "xiyangyang" Year of the Goat!
