Another Mini Holiday

Similar to last year's mini holiday, we had another one over the weekend and at the same place!

The four of us plus cikgai and Cuz headed to Marriott Hotel Putrajaya for an overnight stay. We arrived in time for lunch but Adik was too busy running around instead of eating so I guess that must have tired him out. Good thing he could relax on a nice, huge, comfortable bed:


While waiting for our food to digest before heading to the pool, we let the boys play in the rooms (adjoining rooms so they kept running / chasing back and forth):


After which I had enough stomping and decided to just herd them to the pool anyway:

After about 2 hours in the pool - with Mummy too, although I took a short break to take photos of the boys - we called it quits and went back up for a shower. For a low key activity before dinner, we put the media player on for the boys to watch Transformers the movie (yes, we brought the media player in addition to other electronic babysitters like the Leapster, the Nintendo DS AND Abang's notebook as well):


As to be expected, Abang and Adik got bored after only 20 minutes and created their own entertainment (although Cuz happily stayed in the other room to watch the movie):


In the meantime, I washed everyone's swimsuits and hung them out to dry so that they could be used the next day (hanging, from right to left - Small, Medium and Large!):


It was decided that dinner would be room service since everyone was tired. After putting the boys down for a super early night, i.e. pre-8pm bedtime, Daddy and I nipped downstairs for a bite while Cikgai stayed to watch three sleeping boys.

The next morning, it was breakfast ...


... and then, off to the pool again for one last round:



Everyone had their shower and when Daddy and I noticed that boredom was starting to set in, we took the boys for some snacks at the lounge before packing up and checking out.

I've often wondered how come 2 days of holidays translates to 5 days of laundry. And with these rainy days, it takes even longer to dry!

As I always say, I need a holiday to recover from this one...
