Tour anyone?

Finally managed to get down to writing again after a big gap of *gasp* almost 2 weeks. Was either too busy, too tired or too lazy to logon to blog. Alyssa just recovered from a stomach virus that made her have diarrhoea. Luckily it only lasted a few days, but poor Alexis is now having it. Hope she will be fine soon. That little gremblin have started speaking more words, like “进去”(when my father is going into the toilet), “吃”(her favourite word besides rolling her tongue to show that she wants to eat) and “拿”，“打开”and “鞋子”. She can also hum some of the Barney "clean up" song. It's really wonderful to see her able to say more and more words. My mom was saying that soon I wont have much peace when she really started talking. The kids will probably have more arguments.

Alyssa is very eager to go to school. Every morning she will pester me to "go to school" which is the study room. She wants me to pretend that I am the teacher and teach her things. I think she will enjoy school when it starts on the 21st this month. Few days back I got her a box of toy make up items like lipstick, comb, hair dryer etc. Before we went out that day, she started taking out all these toy cosmetics and started to pretend that she is applying the lipstick and powder. Even Alexis took the lipstick and pretend to apply. Philip was also amused by it and said that its because they got the "heow" genes from the mother. Of course, I admit I am vain, but I think being vain is a privilage given to women. So even though they really starts young, well, I have no objections.

Was looking through the tour packages to Bangkok of various agency and saw one I really like. Philip was also dying to go for a tour. He had been working really hard, almost everyday till 9pm and go back on saturdays too. Hopefully we can find a time that he can go with us and we are also able to make it since Alyssa is starting school and my tuition timing is rather erratic.
