WW called Petsmart the fish shop.

We went to De Anza Park but it was too hot so we only got to play for a short while. Then we went to Toys R Us. They were renovating so we had to change our poo poo in a temporary toilet. it was good for mummy though because the baby changing table area was big.
We played with a few new toys at the store than fought over the train table. Mum chase us to Target and we played I Spy along the way. WW found lots of stop sign. We played there until Daddy came to drive us home.

Discipline Issues
Time Outs
They work in that my boys understand that their behaviour is not acceptable. But they do not stop them from doing whatever is not acceptable
Taking their toys away
That does not work as they will just play with the blankets and pillows.

Enjoyable picnic at Leo Ryan Park. We went there early to secure a parking lot. Then we get to stroll round the park.
We watched impatiently as the volunteers from the Lions Club scattered lots of choc candies on the grass for us to pick up later. We cant wait to dash in and grab.
We grab the minute the hunt started. we grab lots of candies and happily ate some while watching the paddle boats on the lake.
Then we head to San Mateo Downtown to take a stroll. Nothing interesting there though

Very dissappointing easter egg hunt at Hillview (Los Altos). We will not able to get any eggs and alot of kids didnt get any either.
Fun play area at the park next to the egg hunt. The play area was stated for age 2-5. They have a barnyard structure and train structures for kids. We of cos try the trains first then head for the barnyard.
Then we went to Whole Foods for our easter fun. We decorated our easter bunny cookies and dye our eggs. We happily ate our cookies and brought the eggs home.

Moving homes
We have moved homes many times in 2yrs. It was a stressful experience. Good for lossing weight except that my BMI was low already. We have stayed the longest in our current home and hopefully no need to move anytime soon.
Funny thing was the home I grew up in has a kitchen big enough for a dining table for 5 and still have a dining room in the home. However the newer apartments all did not have space for dining table in the kitchen even though we still having a dining room. Maybe thats why kitchen islands and bar counters are so common in apartments here.
Another funny thing was that I always wanted a balcony/patio and now I have a patio garden.

Battle with ANTS
We had ants problem for quite some time. Its irritating the way they come after our food in winter when its too cold to go out and you are left staring at the amount of ants at home.
Aspartame,
Seems to work for awhile. saw a reduction in ants for a few days but they came back and they learn to avoid the aspartame.
Ant killer,
Seems to work too but too early to tell.

Homeschooling
I slept, daydream through most of my classes in primary school. did my own craftwork during english class for secondary school and was bored in junior college.
So maybe homeschooling was not such a bad idea for my boys who probably take after both of us. likely to be playing hard during their elementary school years.
The first thing that probably make me find out more about homeschooling here is that WW likes to learn lots of things, is very curious but dont like school. So we need to somehow make sure he knows his ABCs, 123s and whatever academic that is needed to be on par with his peers. The good thing about CA is that there is so much less pressure here on the young kids. its ok to be just ahead of state standards instead of being ahead of all your neighbours. That really help me enjoy my kids more as I dont need to spend 100% of my time comparing the IQ of my kids with other kids.
I do hope to improve their emotional quotient and their resilence though. But I dont know how much is genetic and how much is nurture. WW is as stubborn as me. I hope he "converts" that stubborness to resilence. WK has higher EQ so far, maybe 2nd born tend to have higher EQ because they get to practise their EQ since day one.

Common In-laws Issues
This is just to vent off steam. Not good to be a "presure cooker". Also problems do not seems so big when they are listed.
1) Getting unwanted items
- stressful when u already dont have space for essentials
- 15 % (mainly frustrating)
- Gift cards or Ang Pow is still the best
- Straight Cash is always wonderful but thats something we ask our own parents not in-laws
2) Getting unwanted comments & advice & complaints
- not just in-laws from strangers too
- 80 % (mainly upsetting + some frustration at why people cannot age gracefully)
Maybe because my parents do not like to complain and my paternal aunts love complaining, so it really gets on my nerves when anybody can find things to complain at least once everyday
3) Different food taste
- Asian saying of one kitchen cannot have two cooks (harder since I dont eat Beef and prefer non-leafy vegetables)
- good for losing lots of weight since I am too picky on food, easily lose 1lb/day
- 2% (irritating but not frustrating)
4) Having to "entertain" them
- Its Asian culture to be respectful to in-laws whether u like them or not.
- its not in-laws fault but more of being tired out making sure they are ok while they are guest in our house. especially when kids are cranky or just in their "I dont want to listen to you" mode
- 3% (mainly tiring, also because I get easily tired when I dont have my daily stroll)

We had a bagels picnic at the library courtyard while watching the flowers. mum was showing us the baby leaf buds and baby flower buds. sadly someone took our bagel bag while we were admiring the sprouting leaves and flowers.
We enjoyed our storytime. The theme is Spring this week. We sang lots of bunnies songs and did dancing. Then we did our coloring and choose the DVDs we want to borrow. we had a fun time running outside the library
Then we went to whole foods to get our orange joice and sat at a table there to drink. We strolled to the Learning Game shop to play the train table and mum bought us our 2nd board game called Zingo. We look forward to playing later.
We went target and had nachos with cheese for tea break. WW fell asleep after tea break and WK happily play at the toys department.
We tried out Zingo on our way to another Whole Foods to get our free bags. We tried lots of stuff and chose our mangos.
We played Zingo while mum cooked dinner. then we had storytime and finally get to watch the Thomas DVD.

We went to Los Gatos High School for our first easter egg hunt this year. It was exciting watching the volunteers throwing choc eggs and easter eggs for us to pick up later. WK's turn came first and he got a basketful of choc eggs and easter eggs. WW collected only easter eggs.
We went back to the car to open our eggs as it was going to rain. We went to willow glen to see the easter egg hunt there but there was no eggs left.
We went for our class and did lots of painting and stamping and glueing. It was difficult taking all our craft pieces home as the wind was v strong. We had lots of fun though.

Before the library is open, we played bubbles at the library courtyard. It was really fun chasing bubbles.
After storytime, we went to the library inner courtyard and admire the Spring flowers. We saw lavender, daisies and some flowers that mummy cannot recognise.
We strolled to Whole Foods to get our SIGG bottles. We love to have our own SIGG bottles just like mummy.
We strolled to Memorial Park but the ponds were all dry except for one wet patch. the poor ducks and geese have v little water left to waddle in.
We strolled to El Camino YMCA for playgym but there was no teacher today. so we didnt get to go to the playgym. We went to Nob Hill to wait for daddy and got to sit in a lovely car shopping cart with two steering wheels and two doors. just nice for us.

WK did his homework coloring small and big pigs
WW wrote his own name on his homework, in the wrong order but good progress
WK made a bubble machine with the Legos. WK "I am blowing" as he took a lego brick out of the lego bubble bottle
WW "You manage to separate it?" when we finally split all the stuck legos bricks
We went to get breakfast from the kitchen.
WK "the banana is in front of the bread mummy" "I dont like sides on my bread mummy" "is my bread ready?"
WK "I want the flower mummy" He put the lego flower into the box and could not get it out.
We were playing with our Lego bricks. WK "one for papa, one for pumpernickel, one for grandma, one for drop". pumpernickel bread is what Barney sang about in an old TV episode.
We made cookies dough with mummy and we baked the cookies :)
After 28mins, the cookies are done and we happily ate them
We are making cookie dough now with choc fudge for when daddy comes home. We are taking turns to stir the cookie dough.

We went to Crissy Field Center in San Francisco for class. There were 2 lady instructors who read us a ABC story
We made our names on cookie dough and Nicole (one of the instructors) promised to bake them for us so that they will be ready to eat after the hike.
We went on a guided hike around the marshland and saw dogs swimming.
We found out that the pretty small red berries that we see everywhere are coffee berries.

After class we went to the beach to play sand. We didnt bring our sand toys so we use paper cups and paper boats to play.
http://good-times.webshots.com/album/562725780jChkFN?vhost=good-times
We went to Randall Museum. Daddy had to make a lot of wrong turns before we found the museum. Finally we reach the museum. We had lots of fun in the toddler room playing in the treehouse. We tried the Lego earthquake simulator too.

I was taking a new tin of cookies and WK wanted to eat. I said that I need to open the tin. WK said "I want to follow you mummy. I want to see how u do that"
WW asked for a napkin to wipe his hands so that he can play his game. WK said "I dont want to eat anymore" because he wants to wipe his hands too.
We watch Muzzy chinese but it was just vocabulary. So we choose to watch Flintstone instead.
We had a nice cup of Milo each and ate pancakes.
WK could not find his cup of orange juice. He was v upset and said "I thought its gone" when I pass him his cup. then he finish his juice and said "its not out" meaning that there is no more juice left.
WK "The giraffe is not sitting on the bed. Its standing and watch TV. The giraffe dont want to watch on the bed. The giraffe is sitting behind mummy"
WK "Gor gor, u didn't finish. There is still a little more. Can I put gor gor'c cup next to my cup mummy"

We did footprint art today at the library courtyard. The fountain area was wet so we step on the puddle of water gently and then created rainbow and other patterns with our footprints. It was really fun.
We went for storytime today and the theme was rats. The librarian has 5 mice finger puppets and we sang lots of songs and pretended to be mice. Our favorite song was the "bounce bounce squek". It was about this mouse that loves to bounce on the furniture in the house and so the mouse would go bounce bounce squek. It was fun making noise in story room.
We color and then went out to play with our new basketball. The grass was wet before story time so mum ask us to play with the ball after storytime when the sun has dry up the grass.
Met a indian lady from the same country. She grew up in Marine Dr and moved to Admiralty. We were talking about where to buy and eat our favourite indian foods.
We run around the courtyard and jump until we were tired. Than mum push us for a stroller ride to whole foods. We fell asleep on the way there and only woke up when mum reach Target. We played with all the trucks and cars there til we have to go for dinner.

We went to Cupertino Square to get out from the cold. We stroll in the mall and saw many new sofas. We stop in front of the AMC ticketing booth for a rest and look down to see grannies and grandpas exercising with dumb bells at the atrium below.
We tried the new sofas. Some give off sound and some dont when we sit on them.
We walked to the library. After borrowing our DVDs, we played football with a playground ball. We had so much fun kicking to one another.
Then we bought a bagel for lunch. We toast the bagel halves and mum spread the jam on the bagels for us. We ate our bagels, wash our hands and then continued kicking the ball.
We went to the toy shop to play for an hr before strolling to walgreens. We fell asleep on the way there. Got choc milk from there and WK woke up right after mum paid money.

We went to Borders for storytime and we were the only ones there. We had a fun time moving the 6 wooden chairs for storytime and then pushing the chairs back to their original places after storytime.
We went to Macdonalds for lunch with Auntie S. Little D was so excited at watching so many people buying food and eating. Mum made us little boats out of a macdonalds brochure. We had fun sailing our boats on the table.
Later we had pizza samples at trader joes and got stickers from the cashier. We had fun sticking the stickers on our stroller on the way to Target. WK finish all his stickers and he use the sticker strip as a airplane. "Double Trouble. Airplane is landing", WK said.

We woke up at 8.50am today. We use our bowling pins to hit the ball so that the ball will row to one another.
Then we had snowman shaped peanut butter sandwich. it was fun watching mum using the snowman mold to make snowman shaped bread. sometimes we have moon shaped bread.
Now having a bath. We use our easter egg halves to scoop bubbles into our clean yoghurt cups. We are also making little waves in the bath tub.

We went to a birthday party for 4 kids. We ate lots of different stuff. then we have a easter eggs hunt. we didnt get many eggs this time but it was fun.
We saw the older kids hit the pinata to try to break it. its kind of scary seeing kids whack a big Dora. I dont dare to look. Finally the pinata break and an uncle pour out the candies from the pinata. Finally more candies to eat.
We had the birthday cake blowing and get to eat the big birthday cake. Then it was time to leave to get our groceries done.

Went to the Bay Area Summer Camp Fair. saw kids doing cartwheels and a large yellow snake. most things were for older kids. we went to Party America to get chocolates for the easter eggs.
We had a fun time at the home safety road show. we had to shine our torchlights at the exhibits.
When we reached home, we help mum and dad put the chocs into the easter eggs and put a sticker so that we know those eggs already have chocs. it was fun but we got bored after stuffing 40 eggs.
