Yesterday was Jason first day at pre-school. I was pick up him around 11.05 and wait for 10 minutes until the teacher let us in to pick up our kids. The teacher when she saw me, she said Jason was perfect. He was not crying at all and he was playing with other children ;) Only, he didn't want drink at all from the mug. She said, she did try couple times but Jason was refuse. SO....when we arrived at home. I gave him a lots of drink :D

These photos were taken before I brought him to school.

He was insist to bring his own backpack by himself. We walked to the school, it was not far around 5 minutes walk. Jason only has to go to school at Monday and Thursday. So.... Today, we went to do groceries. And before we went, he was looking at his backpack ^_^.

Today is Jason first day to go to pre-school. He was wake up at 7.30 am. When I said he will go to school. He was so happy and very excited :D The weather in the morning was cold and windy. We were arrived at 8.40 am at school and wait around 5 minutes until the teacher let the children come to the room.

Around 9 am, I decided to go. I said to one of the teacher that I want to go back. She took Jason to the window and let him say 'dag....dag....' to me. It was strange feeling for me leave Jason op school. In the same time, I was feeling happy (because I have 2 hours for me) and sad (because it is too quiet without Jason at home ^_^ ).

Now, while I typing this post. Jason is still op school. It is so quiet in here ^____^. I did prepare for cook dinner and now it is time for me to do blog-hopping and maybe drop some EC card. I'll tell more about Jason at school, later. Oh, almost forget. He didn't cry when he saw me go.

This is the first time we took fireworks photos from our backyard. I think the results is not to bad hi hi hi hi. We took lots of shots, I think more than 50 shots :D It was so difficult to take fireworks shots without using tripod. I hope next time we take fireworks shots, I have a tripod :D

Just send the frame to them and they will fix it for FREE. You only have to pay for stamps.

I wish you have a great New Year's Eve.

It's happened 2 times, just today.

In lunch time, usually Jason eat with television turn on. But today, when I turn on the television.

Jason : Mama, turn the television OFF.

After take a nap, I brought Jason down to the living room and I want to watch Murder She Wrote serial at the TV. But......

Jason : Mama, turn the television OFF.

Me : But mama want to see this serial, Jason.

Jason : NO, mama. TV OFF.

Me : So....You don't want watch this!! (I changed the channel to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse).

Jason : OHHH.....Mama, television ON.

This year Jason got 6 presents. From Aunt R, he got T-shirt and pants. From Uncle J, he got toys (bus, ambulance and truck full of 4 cars). And from us, he got fire truck. Looks how curious he was while he opened the presents.

There were a lot of things happened to us in this year, both good and bad. Let's see if I still remember everything and write it down as a flashback 2008 :

* February : Hubby's aunt died. I bought an Olympus digicam.

* March : We went to Jakarta for 1 month.

* June : Hubby bought me a notebook.

* July : MIL got an heart attack. And then several operation.

* October : We spend 2 days and 1 night in Den Haag.

* November : Hubby's grandfather died.

* December : My mother had an eye operation. I bought a Nikon D60. I opened my online shop.

* January - December : I got more opps for my 3 blogs. I am enjoying and working hard for all my blogs.

We had a nice Christmas day, yesterday. In the morning we visited my MIL's place and in the afternoon my BIL come to visit us. Jason was happy yesterday, because he got 6 presents. It was SO funny how his reaction when he opened the presents. Too bad I don't make small video for that, I forgot. But I made lots of photos, later this week I posted in here. Hope you have a great holidays....

From : me and family

These photos were taken at the Dam square in Amsterdam. It was a sneaky shots around 10-15 meter away. Because if you want to take a photo them, we have to pay. And I don't want spend any euro for that ;)

Are you looking for a wedding ring? Did you find it yet? If I was you, I would be browsing through the "Avant Garde Titanium" site. They have lots of titanium wedding bands that you can choose from. I remember it was not easy for us, when we were looking for a wedding ring. I hope it doesn't happen to you too. Back to the Titanium site, they have quite a few models of titanium rings like classic Ti rings, inlaid Ti rings, stone set rings, tungsten rings, and black rings models.

You must be wondering how to order a ring through an online connection. Don't worry! When you fill in the form to order a ring, they will sent you the free sizing ring with in 3-5 days. But if you are sure that you know what your fingersize is and don't want to receive the sizing ring. Please send a direct email to them after you place your order.

This site is not only for rings but they also have other collections a couple of examples you can find on titanium necklace, titanium crosses and titanium bracelet, they will also offer you a 14 days guarantee money back if you are not satisfied with your order.. If you would like to have some more information about this company and their services, you can have a look on this site. Feel free to browse their site for more detailed information.

I woke up little bit late this morning because I have a headache :(( And until now while I write this post. Yesterday, we didn't go anywhere as we plan. We only went to my MIL's place. And then we were cleaning the house first and second floor.

I don't have many photos with Jason, because I always become the photographer of Jason and hubby ^_^. On our trip last Saturday to Amsterdam, hubby made few shots me and Jason while we were in the train. This is one of them.

Yesterday, we went to Amsterdam and Alkmaar. It was SO tired but it was fun. It was also the first time that I traveled with my Nikon. So....it was quite excited to take some shots. Today we have another plan but I am not sure yet. Let's see, because we are still little bit tired after yesterday journey :D

I'll do blog-hopping later this afternoon. Have a nice Sunday.

Jason : Mama, Jason also!! Click....

Me : Ok! Wait after this.

Jason : NO!! Jason also...click!!

He was jealous to pink roses because I was busy taking shots of them hi hi hi hi...

He was so happy when I said that. He was direct take his favorite bears and sit.

Jason : I am ready, mama.

Then he was playing with his cars and he let me continue to make shots of my pink roses hi hi hi hi.....

It's been couple days that Jason knows numbers 1-9. Yippee... Only number 7 always difficult for him, he always forget ;) So now, every times we look around at the magazine. He is pointing the numbers and said it. I am happy for that. I think he knows well numbers because he likes to watch Dora the Explorer and Diego.

With alphabet at the moment, he doesn't know at all. Plus he still can not counting yet. Takes time and I am not in hurry.

1. I felt very tired. I decided not too long work behind our PC. Usually when hubby and Jason sit watch Knight Rider at 7 pm. I sit at our PC, dropping EC card or other things. But that moment, I stop. I sat with hubby and Jason, I was in the middle. Sometimes I was teasing Jason and he was laughing so hard ^_^. I LOVE that moment, maybe I should sit more often with them while they are watching Knight Rider ;)

2. We have plans for this weekend. Yippee.... I hope the weather is nice so....we can enjoy our weekend.

3. I told hubby about how lucky I am to have him. He is support me 100%. For me, he is my hubby and also my father :D A father that I always dream, a father that I never have.

It is not only me who have to adaptation with my D60 (especially if I use lighting), Jason also :D I made couple shots until I got what I want, he smile.....

1. I got news that Jason will go to school at 5 January 2009.

2. I was launching my online shop at 08 Dec on our 4th anniversary. And I got lots of support comments, thanks you SOO much. So far, I manage to sell 1 poster hi hi hi hi... I hope I can sell more products on my online shop ^_^.

3. Last saturday I bought new shoes for me. Because the old one already have hole in the bottom. And it was not nice with this cold weather ;)

4. Yesterday, I was working out at my travel's blog. So...start today for another 14 days, there will be Christmas tree parade around the world in there.

5. We got an invitation from Jeanne to come to her house on 26 Dec for dinner :D Thank you SOOO much, Jeanne.
