I have wonderful news today. My brother and sister in law are going to have a baby!! Hooray Hooray for the both of them. They both have been wanting this for years. IVF is a wonderful thing.

Speaking of babies, my sister in law and brother in law (on my husband's side) are also having a baby in the next couple of weeks. I am so excited for the both of them. In fact, I will be travelling to Las Vegas this weekend to be with them till the birth of their baby boy. Lucky me!! I am going to be an aunt again! I am already an aunt to three nieces now I will be an aunt to a nephew! It is so wonderful to see my family grow. Really, I cannot wait to be a mommy!

Hairstyles? Which One?

2005-01-18T15:29:00.000-08:00

My hair is all long and scraggly. The only way I know how to style my hair is to put it up in a ponytail. I am getting sick and tired of this look. A new year deserves a new look. I have decided to be gutsy and have a new haircut..something funky and shaggy...and with color. Perhaps Red!

I have picked out a few styles that I like . What do you think?

Where do I Start?

2005-01-14T18:00:00.000-08:00

The house is a mess. My room is worse. It looks like a tornado went through it. I dont know where to begin. I also have a huge pile of laundry including my sheets, quilt, duvet cover and pillow cases. Looks like I will be doing at least 5 loads of washing today. I am about to embark on a crazy organisation task but you know that one has to make a huge mess to really get organised. I am also thinking of rearranging the furniture in my room but I think I will have to leave that for next weekend.

5 hours later.... 6.00p.m

I am doing the last load of washing. I will have to put this load in the dryer as the suns gone down. Ummm I am hungry. Stomachs rumbling. Got to go cook!

Sewing Fest

2005-01-08T16:28:00.000-08:00

It has been raining outside on and off all week long. It has been wet, cold and dark..yucky really!! This is unusual for L.A. In a way, it's a good thing. We definitely need the water as it gets extremely dry here especially in the summer but I hope it stops soon and the sun comes out!

I have been hiding in the sewing room all week, where its warm and cosy making some toys for my online site: meukin.com.

Here they are:

My favourite is Bubbles. She is the one on the right. Isnt she as cutie?!
