CNY 2012

CNY is wayy early this year. before i know it, we are already in the year of Dragon!
busy with work and ongoing reno, it was only until saturday night then i've the time to prepare all the ang baos!
but CNY affair is getting quieter by the years...
ever since my gramps passed away 2 years back, reunion dinner is no longer a big affair with all my extended family.
now, we just have it with my parents and brother.

since we are already staying at ubi for CNY this year, we didnt have to travel for reunion dinner at all. ha.
as usual, flowery legs ng family went out to raffles city before dinner time.
everyone bought something except me who are still hibernating after the splurging in dec. *gulp*
our ploy to tire the boys out worked for they were ready to zzz early after the dinner itself!
both were fast asleep by 930pm, muhaha.
ah long and me grabbed the chance to make our way to vivo for "haywire".
the show aint half bad with its convincing action sequences.

then its CNY day 1!
the routine has been same for the past few years:
1st stop is to my in-laws house.



some shots with my boys while waiting for the lou hei

the handsome boys! YR showing off his gold bracelet, LOL!

second stop: to ah long's grandma place

on our way there. when i asked him why was his expression so, he said he forgot to smile... zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

last stop: to my big uncle house where all my extended family goes to.
and we stayed there from 3 - 7+pm.
the 2 boys actually skipped their naps yesterday!
they were so tired that they fell asleep the moment we loaded them in the car.
with this power nap, they woke up again when we reached vivo for our movie - journey to the mysterious island!

its a good thing the show is just 90 mins long.
we were glad to give the boys a quick wipe down, their milk feeds and finally settled them to sleep before 11pm..
it had been a long day for everyone, but a fun one nonetheless!
