Getting ready for CNY

Days and times passed so fast, next week is already mid of January and after that CNY will be here. Mum have told me to have reunion dinner on 18/1, girl side always have to be earlier no choice. I already half way preparing. Curtains already start washing it since last month. Now left the spring cleaning to do from ceiling, windows to floor. Got to settle all by myself, hubby no time to help...well, will try to do as much as possible. Not going anywhere far this CNY, basically just relatives and friends visiting. Will also try to budget on buying CNY stuff. I just want a peaceful and simple CNY.

I already started hunting for new year clothing before the year-end sales ended last month. Luckily able to get all, some with discount. These are the new clothing for me and my boy.

Top from Mix Culture and Nichii, 3/4 legging from Nichii too and shoe. Total spend RM226


Poney Polo-T, Carters and Gap double sleeve top, 2 Miki pants, socks and shoe. Total spend RM192
Wearing pants or legging is still my best choice for need to take care of a active kid and I allow myself to wear short heel shoe this year. I had my hair cut last week at Shunji Matsuo again from Sunny and he gave me a heavy layered this round. Again, I so satisfied for what pro did (RM68 haircut only). My boy too had it before New Year and I'm still thinking whether want to cut it again when CNY near. His hair is getting long so fast. Bringing him for a hair cut is nightmare to me.

It was so terrible the last round. He knew that he will go for a hair cut and said want. Once the cutter move on his head, he started to cry, get louder and louder. No way to stop him and calm him with sweets and talks. He was pushing the hairdresser away with turning left right and bowing his head up and down to avoid the cutter, scissor cut also not allow when half way cutting. The hairdresser was so afraid to continue with his moving non-stop. Also, he tried to get off sitting my lap, hold my hand and want to go away pointing to the door. I got no choice, got to hold tight his head and grab him tightly. Still can't do it properly as he have his full energy to escape too. End up, I scold him in loud and gave a few smack on his lap. He was still moving a lot after that, we force to continue too. He sat on the floor to finish his hair cut and the hairdresser got to squad down to cut his hair...It was a war time during hair cut. I think the aunty also scared when seeing him walk in for a hair cut everytime...any tips can help to calm down a kid when going for a hair cut?

So what you going to prepared for this CNY? Been reading emails about the Mandrin Oranges with worms. Better becareful when we choose the foods from China like those biscuits, oranges, dried chinese sausages and duck, dates and etc..better choose and buy wisely. I will be start getting busy for the spring cleaning next week. Till then, have a nice weekend to all.
