Knock Myself Out!!

This week I didn't sign up my kids for any camp activities....then I realized it is a big mistake.

I was totally knocked out by now around 10:30 PM after whole days activities including shopping, dinning at Santana Row w/ friends then came home to cook dinner and while DH took Abby for swimming class at 7:00 PM, I took Niel and Ilona to do Power Yoga. Of course, I don't have to watch Niel and Ilona when doing yoga, I finally have a piece of quite moment all by myself.

I was still trying to level the exhaustion down by doing Power yoga in the evening, but I'm no superwoman, I am going to call it a day!! lol

Kids stop by lululemon at Santana Row where I once shopped for yoga suit. They remember back of the store has a small area full of toys, book and some pretend custome.


We dined at The village and when the receptionist asked how many of us, I feel kinda of embarrassed to tell him that we have 3 adults and 6 kids. I assume most restaurant won't expect this many kids unless it is a kid's party!! haha......

Waiting for mommy friends and kid's arrival for lunch at The Village!!

It will get better as the children get older. I let my children play outdoors A LOT (biking, skateboarding, jumping on the trampoline, basketball). It helps that we live in a cul-de-sac (less traffic).
Thanks, Lin. If I may ask how many brothers and sisters do you have? Ilona is the 3rd one of mine so we always think she is pretty smart.....street smart!! haha....
thanks, eve, I will tell Cathy about your compliments!! :)
Hi, true: I know.....one day, my physical endurance will reach its limit while my kids have to do all the house chores for ME....I guess I am dreaming for the day to come earlier...haha....

I need to think about something for them to do next week before I am all exhausted again.

Rachel - Ilona's skin looks a lot better these days. Is it because of changing her eating habits and getting rid of allergens in her environment? That Max black dress looks very sexy underneath and it's so creative how your wore it with your Y3 sheer pieces. I like Cathy's jeans too. She's got the casual chic look going.

I often feel embarrassed when we have more kids than adults at a restaurant too. But oh well, you're there to spend money right? At least you're giving them your business.

Btw, I've been meaning to ask you where you bought your passport holder. I've been looking for ones for Max & Sophie too. TIA!

Hi, Betsy: Thanks. So far, I can only find that black dress to fit underneath the Y-3 dress....wait..I think Cathy gave me a tank dress and I think it might go w/ it too. :)

OH, yap, Cathy, she probably won like 200 jeans.....before she sold, donate, give....... half of it. I told her that she should invest in revolveclothing since she bought lots of their clothes. :P I love her jean vest w/ big shoulder very much. Timeless!!

Hum...Ilona's skin is a lot better but if you look closely, the redness underneath the eyes are not completely faded away. But I am sure the weather, environment definitely influence a lot...my mom nags me everyday that she said I should be very very very very careful about Ilona's skin......she is a girl, skin is everything....blah blah...... wait, how come I don't think she reminds me that I will have freckles if I expose to the sun to much when I was young!!! haha ..... *<* Yeh~~ easy to "command" than do it yourself!! haha...

OH, I got the passport holder at Border's bookstore. They have plenty of cute selections. Someone even comment "very cute" on the tiny Owl bag I got for Ilona too. :) I gotta say, those figures are just too cute not to adore them!!
Hi, Julia: so what style of hat you think would go w/ the dress? I tend to wear as casual as possible and I look around that's the only hat I got which I think can go w/ the outfit. :)

I am bearing the spirit of Y-3 collection: sporty, fun and athletic look.

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde
