First Baby Seat Experience 傲B第一次坐BB櫈

Babies grow real fast.
This was baby Marcus' first day at home.
Teeny tiny.
BB快高長大,
傲B第一日係醫院返匤企就係仲架啦,
超級細粒

Lil' Marcus - First Day at Home

...and about 8 months later...
8個月後...
Baby Seats
He looks so....mature!
Sometimes I don't realize how big he is now.
成個大個仔咁啦已經!
有時我都唔記得佢幾大啦....

This was his first time in a baby chair.
We thought he was gonna hate it, but he didn't he loved it.
It made it easier for us too, we could all eat at the same time...and most of the time, we could use both of our hands ^_^'
個日佢第一次坐BB櫈,
大家都以為佢一定唔鐘意坐, 會喊, 但係估唔到佢好鐘意喎!
對我地黎講實左係太好了, 我地終於都可以有餐安樂茶飯食啦..

Baby Seats
He banged his little hands on the glass table the whole time, the restaurant manager came over and told us to stop. Oppps.
佢係咁用隻手好興奮咁打張枱, 打到比個經理出黎鬧佢..XD

Nail Color for Boys, Yay or Nay? 男人的浪漫(指甲油篇)

Boys with painted nails
SC doesn't only wear my clothes. Now he wants his nails to be painted too!
This is all his idea, not mine :)
I suggested all black, or midnight blue, but he wanted alternate black and white.
He should've really invested in nicer summer sandals. He should've worn his gladiator sandals! But he's just as lazy as me. Heheheh.
What do you think? Yay or nay?
SC唔單止著我D衫, 依家仲要搶埋我D指甲油黎玩!!!
係佢自己要架, 唔係我迫佢..
我叫佢油全黑, 或深藍, 但係佢要簡監犯色(黑白黑白黑白.....)
佢應該買對靚拖鞋, 或者攞返對角鬥士涼鞋出黎著, 但係佢同我都一樣, 咁懶..
大家覺得點?

I used these colors.
黑與白裝備
Boys with painted nails
Revlon top coat, solid white polish from the face shop, and revlon black lingerie

Are Shorts Work Appropriate? 時尚的睡褲

Work appropriate?
I don't exactly wear formal 3-piece business suits with tights and heels to work, but I've never worn shorts to work before. One fine day, I saw this lady at a busy junction of Central business district. Everything about her outfit screams business, except...the lacy tiered scalloped shorts? She does look nice in it, but...

What do you think? Is this outfit work appropriate? Is it ok to wear shorts to work?

SC & His Slicked Back Hair 賭勝頭

SC with Slicked Back Hair
Remember the Godfather? God of Gamblers? What do they have in common?
The cool slicked back hair style.
SC wanted it so bad, but it is really not easy to create.
We tried putting on various gel, cream and 定型...and it wouldn't stay in place!
Finally SC used his good ol' Brylcreem and it did the best job so far.

大家仲記得Godfather同賭勝? 佢地有D咩共通點? XD
冇錯, 佢地都係all back頭的!!
SC無啦啦想整返個, 但係真係唔係咁易整..
用左唔同既gel, cream, 定型水, 都冇用..
最後, 要用返幾十年前Brylcreem 出既髮蠟先好小小..

SC with Slicked Back Hair
What do you think of boys with slicked back hair style?
You likey?
大家覺得all back頭好唔好睇? (SC:我覺得我自己整得唔好睇...唔識整..)

Nautical Nails 船船指甲

Nautical Nails
I always love everything nautical. Last weekend, I decided to do some nautical themed nail art, using the easiest way possible, nail stickers.
我好鐘意D同船有關係嘅野. 上星期我整左一套船嘅主題指甲, 用膠紙, 非常方便

Ships, coconut tree, anchors, albatross, leaping dolphins, etc...
Nautical Nails
椰子樹,船,錨,跳跳海豚,雲,信天翁...

Nautical Nails
Basically, cute stuff that reminds us of the beach and the sea.
全部都係同海/沙灘有關嘅野

Nautical Nails
On shimmery navy blue and deep red polish.

Nautical Nails
I did my toes too!
Considering how easy, how cheap and how good they look, I was pretty happy with the result.
Too bad they don't last long though, the stickers peel rather easily because they aren't fully protected by the thin top coat. Oh wells, just for fun, they're good enough.
腳指都整埋, 用貼紙都方便, 快, 靚, 正. 但係可惜好快就甩..

I used Revlon's 791 Midnight Affair, 745 Frankly Scarlet and the top coat, with a set of nail art stickers I bought from Sasa (HK$16 for a sheet)
我用 Revlon's 791 Midnight Affair, 745 Frankly Scarlet, D貼紙我係Sasa買左$16/張

My Revlon Nail Colors 我的露華濃指甲油

I'm not really a nail color addict (in denial). Most of the time, I don't color my finger nails, just my toes, only in summer. I only buy one odd bottle every now and then...
其實我都唔係美甲粉絲, 大部分時間我都唔塗指甲的, 通常都係夏天先塗腳甲. 仲要塗來塗去都係塗一種顏色..(以前)
Revlon Nail Polish
I didn't realize I have so many!
有一日我囉晒D指甲油出黎睇, 嘩乜我有咁多嘅..

I am stingy, I don't buy very nice brands, normally I just buy Revlon...
我好孤寒, 所以淨係買露華濃..
Revlon Nail Polish

...and they are not even the full price HK$49 or HK$35 ones, I buy the HK$19 ones from Bonjour. Heheheh
買最平個隻, $19

The red hot tamale is my favorite.
最鐘意紅色
Revlon Nail Polish
It compliments my Asian skin tone and it makes my toes look good in summer footwear :)
係夏天就最襯我D膚色啦!

Tiered Thrifted Dress 今日著咩

Baby Marcus' Bed Head 時尚摩登的傲B...

 Baby Marcus' Bed Head
I just learnt that babies sweat so much during their sleep. Baby Marcus' hair gets soaking wet when he sleeps. It gets so wet, we have to line his pillow with a towel. The plus side is...he gets up with this super fierce tousled hair style.
BB訓覺, 冒水冬瓜. 傲B都一樣, 次次訓醒覺都好似遊完水咁, 成頭濕晒. 之前以為佢有病, 好擔心, 問問老人家先知個個細個都係咁的..濕還濕, 但係佢濕都可以濕得咁有型...(無言)

Whew!
Baby Marcus' Bed Head
I wish my bed head looks this good ;)
好似啱啱去左登台咁..= =;

Today's Outfit 今日著咩 H&M Lime Yellow Belt

Baby Marcus Making A Splash 傳說中嘅傲B已學識奧義BB式

Seeing how baby Marcus splashes around like mad every bath time, making the whole bathroom wet, we couldn't wait to bring him out swimming.
傲B次次沖涼都好興奮咁玩水, 玩到成個廁所都濕晒, 我地諗佢一定係好鐘意玩水啦..XD
Baby Marcus Swimming Gear
We bought him a pair of swimming shorts with a diaper lining. We made a mistake by buying a size too big. Tips to parents, buy an exact fit if possible, or risk cheek exposure :D
新買左條泳褲比傲B, 內連尿片功能(好神奇的說). 諗住買大D冇蝕低, 諗吓諗吓都係買啱啱大細好D, 因為落水再上水好容易Love(甩褲同音..)...

Baby Marcus Swimming Gear

We also bought a pair of floaty balloon thing you put on baby's arms...and there were only girly ones available. Papa, being a shopping hater that he is, refused to look around further, and just bought this little pink number. Sigh...
我地都買左對浮浮手袖, 諗住吹起佢可以一野扔傲B落水..

Baby Marcus Swimming Gear

These pink things intrigued baby Marcus.
冇辦法...得返最後一個..粉色都要照買..

Baby Marcus Swimming Gear
Gee...these look....
睇佢個衰樣..

...delicious!
對傲B黎講, 都係愛黎食最好
Baby Marcus Swimming Gear
These floaty arm balloons were pretty much useless. They were too big for baby Marcus, and he could still easily dip his head into water...I wouldn't recommend them.
大家如果未買小朋友遊水裝備, 千其唔好買哩個..作用不大...(係七個月大黎講..), 因為佢唔識撐個頭上黎, 照飲泳池水..

We were waiting for the perfect weather to go swimming, last Sunday wasn't perfect, it was cloudy, and it was still a bit too cold, but since we were desperate, we brought him swimming anyway. Luckily, it was sunny when we got there. We were the only ones in the toddler's fun pool. The guards were really strict though. We thought of letting baby Marcus swim in his clothes because it was a bit cold, but the guard reminded us that we had to make him wear a proper swim wear. We might buy a full body swim suit for him...
泳褲就一早買左, 但係天氣就日日都唔好, 一係就落雨, 一係就凍, 等等等, 終於等到上星期日, 雖然個日都仍然係陰天同凍, 但係我地實左認唔住啦!!! 好彩出到去個天即刻出太陽同熱(即係傲B唔係貴人, 唔會招風雨..XD) 去到BB池, 得我地三個人係度...乜人都冇..但係有個好串嘅救生員係喥, 我地一到就行過嚟我地喥下個馬威先, 叫我地同傲B入去更衣室換衫, 唔可以係出面換, 仲要唔比傲B著住衫嚟玩水, 我心諗, 喂, 出面班港女都著住t-shirt黎遊水啦, 怕人望佢呀嘛, 傲B因為凍著住件衫有咩唔得, 但係我地都係算啦, 冇乜幾可帶住傲B去遊水

In the beginning, he was a bit scared of the vast pool of cool water. After we splashed around for a bit, he got used to it and had a bit of fun. We'll bring him again soon when the weather's warmer.
一開始佢係勁驚, 比人撳左個暫停制咁, 郁都唔郁吓, 同平時沖涼完全唔同..我地輪流另起佢係水裏面滑行, 玩左一陣佢就回魂啦, 係咁拍水, 拍完D水花淺到塊面又扁咀, 但係又忍唔住要拍..係咁開心拍, 淺水扁咀, 開心, 唔開心...咁就玩左作個鐘..

We were not allowed to take pictures, but papa managed to steal a shot ;)
泳池係唔比影相同錄影的, 但係見到傲B咁cute,唔理了!!
