Sister Support

Life has been very stressful here at Chez Mamapumpkin, and when Mama is stressed, everyone is stressed. Thus the saying in The Transformers 3 is true - HAPPY WIFE, HAPPY LIFE. Remember that, gentlemen. My girls will cry for whatever reason, when they don't get their way or.......click to learn what next.

Parcels from London

Posted on July 22, 2011July 18, 2011 by Mamapumpkin

Annually, we would invariably receive parcels from London and Perth, for whatever reason. It'll either be Mommy's shopping or the girls' birthday gifts or special orders for them. T1 gets incredibly excited whenever the Guards hand us our parcels and always insists on reading who it's for and.......click to learn what next.

I've mentioned before how extensive T1's school is with performances on top of their heavy academic and sports schedule and almost always, T1 is chosen to participate in some form or other.

Monthly Book Purchase

Posted on July 17, 2011July 11, 2011 by Mamapumpkin

Every month, we have a monthly budget to buy some books. I really don't mind spending money on books and even though we spent 5 good years borrowing books from several libraries, we still bought dizzying amounts of books. I just love owning books!!! And being terribly anal,.......click to learn what next.

Every Girl has a Favourite Bag

In T2's case, it was the Baskin Robbins (HEY!!! DESIGNER, OK???) carry bag and I say was because that was LAST YEAR. It is now out of season (according to her) so she's got a new fav this year; something that cost RM70 from Accessorize and something that.......click to learn what next.

Intelligence versus hard work

Posted on July 9, 2011July 9, 2011 by Mamapumpkin

Do you think children who are naturally intelligent score well in exams or is it the hard working ones who do? Or is it a mix of both? If you aren't so intelligent, you work harder and if you're super intelligent, you work less hard? Is it fair.......click to learn what next.

Children getting things too easy

I have a spoilt daughter. Don't get me wrong, she's a lovely girl. Buts she's spoilt (OK, so am I in many ways but that's for a different story altogether). For the last 6 years of her life, she has been the favourite grandchild of both grandparents and.......click to learn what next.

Drunk children

Posted on June 13, 2011June 9, 2011 by Mamapumpkin

When I was in my teens, I was a capable drinker. I must have started drinking at 16? Those were the days when I'd sneak out of the house to go clubbing at Faces, Phase 2, Scandals, Brannigans, Modestos......hands up those of you from my era!!! Little did.......click to learn what next.

Kids Shopping from Perth

Posted on June 7, 2011June 4, 2011 by Mamapumpkin

Because we were quite skint last year when we went to Perth, we hardly did any shopping. Thanks to our cousins and Nana, we still managed to come home with some shopping loot! This is what T1 got amongst many other things that I didn't take pictures off.......click to learn what next.
