Chinese New Year 2014

Chinese New Year 2014
Chinese New Year's Eve

My family had our routines back, having dinner in CNY's eve. We had a simple dinner together, not going to the restaurant and having grand dinner, just at home - 6 of us. 


My mom prepared these meal. We've got a bowl of noodles, a plate of broccoli with chicken minced, a plate of roasted duck, a plate of roasted chicken, a bowl of fish balls, and a bowl of boiled milkfish with soy sauce.


Fritz wore a new shirt from Popo and he chose to attend this dinner's eve by using a bow tie. LOL


It's us under the colorful lantern. Look at my silly brother! He wore improper clothes. OMG! 

Though it's very simple but I really thanked to my mom for preparing this moment back after few years gone.

The Day!


Early in the morning, both of us were busy filling the hong pao. As Popo isn't with us anymore, my MIL decided not celebrating with her side anymore. It's sad actually. How I missed her so much! So we didn't need to prepare the hong pao for my MIL's family anymore.

Fritz got a hong pao from me

As usual, before we went to the relatives, we had to do the routines. I and Ali to my parents, my brother to my parents, Fritz to Opa and Oma, my brother to me, and the last Fritz to us.

Done with the routines then we're ready to dig some money! LOL. 

I love these food - from Ali's paternal family

Fritz in his age could manage himself very nice. He said "Gong Xi" to every elder he met. He said thank you after he got the hong pao. Very thankful for his good manner this year.

Welcome Horse year...let's rock the year!!

K4 : Week 43

K4 : Week 43

Fritz is currently 4 years 10 months

We still had bad weathers for these 2 weeks. There's nothing much we could do. Honestly, it's hard to go out and do some activities during these weeks. Flood and rainy days during these weeks.

Learning Toys


He loves to play Lego Duplo by himself while I was busy in the kitchen preparing for lunch. He sometimes created with his imagination. Today, he made a spaceship he said.

Miscellaneous

For a week, he always had his breakfast, lunch and dinner in this table. Actually the table itself had quite no longer used by Opa. Before he made this table for helping him practicing with his left hand. Then, he forgot to use it for yearly. 

Fritz had just found that it's really used for table. So, he chose to eat his meal there as in cafe. LOL

Fun

My boy is getting braver!

For quite some times I've never accompany him anymore playing in this area. He always goes here with Papa while I'm having private tutor class. When I'm finished, I'll call both then they will go to the car. 

As Papa now is getting busier with his job, I let Fritz going with me to my private classes. After I'm done, we went to the mall. 

How I was surprised seeing him could climb up these stairs by himself. I knew I've just underestimated his brave. I know who he is. He's not quite braver like others. He's my slowly gross motor skill boy. He always calculates every single steps he moves. So it's really a good improvement for him climbing these stairs. Proud of you!

Learning Toys
with his Lego's cars

Few months ago, Shell had a promotion - buying V-Power 30 liters then we could redeem a Lego car for 40K rupiah. We don't use any gas from Shell so we couldn't get the cars

Recently, Shell closed the promotion but they still had lots of cars to be redeemed. Then they put some requirements to get the cars by buying 2 liters for motor and we could get the cars - still for 40K rp. Wohooo...good offering!

So we collected the Lego. The first one was the Ferari and the second was the other red cars.

The third

The fourth

The fifth 

Papa bought the last three together and we made that in the same day. How happy he was!!

Badly,we didn't get the truck. It's finished! :(

Fun

Kiddos did the charity for flood victims. Here's the story...
8:00 PM

Mom on March : Charity for Flood Victims

Mom on March : Charity for Flood Victims
Too bad that Jakarta was having flood disaster again this year and it's getting worse than last year. For some area maybe it's getting better but for some areas are getting worse. They had to face almost 4 meters height of flood in their area. OMG!

As it's getting worse, one of Momarch's members asked to raise money for the flood victims. All of us were agreed to do it.

After we raised some money till the due date, we went to buy some things they would need. Three of us preferred to join with Gaby and her family in his Alphard. We went to Lotte Mart to buy some stuffs. We met Lina and her family too there. How kids learn how to put their empathy in this condition though they were busy playing each others. LOL

Done with the stuffs, we decided to donate at that day. We're going around our neighborhood and it's really hard to choose which area we should give our donation. Then we ended up to put all the donations in our car. So they finally came to our {parents's} house. 

In our way back to their home as we put our motor there, we listened to the radio and we heard a name that Gaby was calling for many times before. So there we're going to put our donation. 

We're hurried up back home and let Fritz staying at home with my parents then we went to the venue. It's just take not more than 10 minutes to donate our stuffs. How they thanked to us for our help. It's not much actually but it's really meant to be for them. They had stayed there for 9 days and their house were still flooded 1 meter. If I could help them more....

Cooking

Starting the new year spirit, let's cooking something!

Fritz loved to watch McDonald's toys in YouTube. How he amazed that toy when it could make a nugget. He showed it to me and asked for making that kind of nuggets. Actually it's a very simple. Here's the recipe:

Prepare:
- bread
- corn flakes
- honey
- cookie cutter

How to make it:
1. Crash the corn flakes using the rolling pin, separate in a plate
2. Make some shapes in your bread using the cookie cutter, we chose Mickey
3. Dip the Mickey's bread into the honey
4. Then dip in the corn flakes crumbs

Tadaaa....we're done! It's a simple nugget ala Fritz. Enjoy it...^_^
