Kids Amuse Me Monday

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts meet me on monday, Monday Music Moves Me

Last weekend we took the kids to the library to borrow books for them to read during the week. We have been bringing the kids to the library more often now that there is a new library that opened up in a mall that we frequently visit after mass on Sunday.

Guess who picked up this book for R and I to read?

A- Monkey Boy

B- Doggie boy

C- Tiger Girl

 

I was surprised when this book was selected and thrust to me to borrow.  I never expected one of my kids to select such a book. One of them must  really feel that as parents we still lack the relevant skills in parenting girls and need to read up more.

We have only been raising our girl for the past 20 months and still have lots to learn about raising girls as compared to boys.  I guess this must be on the mind of my kid who took the book for me to read.

So can you guess which of the three  made us borrow the book? I would like to read your guesses below in the comments. 😛

This week the theme is 1 hit wonder. I’m choosing Don’t say you love me by M2M. Do you remember listening to this group back in 2000s.

 

Questions:
1. I keep putting off making a photobook for Tiger girl. I can’t put it off any longer as the voucher expires on 25th April which is 2 days time!!

2. What is your current weather?
Wet and humid.

3. What is the nicest room in your house?
 It would be the kitchen as it is the least cluttered room in the house at the moment. It also has all my fancy gadgets (toys) in it 😛

4. What jewelry do you never take off?
My wedding band. The only exception was before delivering the 3 kids as no jewellery was allowed during the C-sections which I had to go through.

5. Do you eat a snack before bed?
 No. I’m actively trying to lose weight so no snacking for me.

Meet Me on Monday- Mid April Edition

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts meet me on monday, Monday Music Moves Me

Last week Monkey Boy made this car out of scrap material for his Art & Craft project. He used the extra tyres from his toy car, tissue box and other scraps which we had lying around to make this car.  It was to be a Volkswagon Scirocco as he loves sports car. I’m not a really crafty person and was impressed with the details he had on his car. He was beaming when his teacher gave him an A+ for his effort making the car.

Did you kids do any crafts last week?

Today I’m sharing with you the music by a talented Taiwanese Singer- Vanness Wu. I’ve watched this drama which he starred in and it was a really nice love story.

I’m happy that Java’s back and this Meme is running again.
Here are are the questions that she asked this week

 

Questions:

1. Right now I could really eat _________?
Garlic Ciabatta. Am really loving the ciabatta  I made at baking class over the weekend.

2. Full length pants or capri’s?

I’m fine with both but am more in to capri’s these days especially since it has been raining a lot lately.

3. The best smelling men’s cologne (women’s perfume for the guys playing) is ________?
Not really sure about this one as R doesn’t use any men’s cologne. I like the one by Hugo Boss.

4. What is your favorite kind of Cheesecake?
Hazlenut Chocolate cheesecake is tops for me.

5. What TV Show do you currently never miss?
It would be Vampire Diaries Season 3. I’m fine the series really captivating and can’t wait for each new episode to be released. I don’ watch it on TV but via the net instead.
