How Time Flies (Part 2)

I can't believe it's already a week since Abang's concert. Talk about how time flies, here I was thinking what to blog about next and before you know it, it's already one week since he was singing and dancing on stage.

Anyway, lately both boys have been very keen on painting. We got some art blocks with ready printed pictures to be painted (for Abang) and regular colouring books (for Adik).



What's interesting is that they're both using paintbrushes that are over 30 years old. I kid you not. Ant J found her and Daddy's old paintbrushes which they used all those years ago (and we know it's theirs because their names are written/ carved onto the brushes) and now Abang and Adik are using them!

Rather amazing, if you ask me. As you can see from the picture, Mummy was still an amateur at that time, allowing them to paint using their regular clothes. So today, I gave Abang an old t-shirt of mine and Adik got one of Abang's old t-shirts. Also you may notice that Abang's, um, "masterpiece" is an entire page painted the same dull colour. Rest assured, he is doing much better now.

With the school holidays on, I think they'll be doing more and more painting!

Also, it's been 4 weeks since Daddy and I took both of them swimming. I could have sworn it was just last week. But then, last week we were not free; the week before we were at Janda Baik and prior to that Abang had concert practice.

It was great - both boys are definitely getting more used to the water and less nervous. Too bad Daddy and I both had to be in the water with them so we couldn't get any photos, but we do have some of them clowning around at home:



Hmm .... I'm not sure if Adik should be on the coffee table though. The other day he nearly tipped it over!
