At The Rate I'm Going ...

My Daily Album is becoming a weekly one! I am running behind on it, ahh well what's new. Will endeavour to do a bit of catch up tomorrow (hopefully!).
.
I'll do a little recap here and this will help me when I come to do these pages for my album :-)
.
Thursday morning was spent tidying up, making Mum's bed and putting kids toys away! Maddison had a sleep, we had lunch then went off to the airport with Irene to pick up Mum. Mum was due in around 3.30pm, so we got to KLIA (KL International Airport) about then and found a spot to wait where we could see the passengers arriving. An hour later Lyndon checked the arrival information board again, and Irene asked at the info counter and we discovered that all Air Asia flights land at the LCCT (Low Cost Carrier Terminal). Right ... so you can imagine the mad dash we had to get back to the car and drive there (took about 15 minutes I suppose). Couldn't get any answer on Mum's cell phone, so assumed it wasn't working here. Lyndon dropped Irene & I off and we just looked at each other and then at the huge CROWDS of people and said "how on earth are we going to find her in all this mass of humanity?!". Anyway I asked an Aussie guy that was just coming out the arrivals door and he did some long muttering about waiting in LONG queues, but did confirm that he was on the same flight as Mum. So we decided she was obviously still in there! Suppose we only waited another ten minutes before she came out looking slightly frazzled! So that was our afternoon ... we were actually pleased we'd gone to the wrong terminal to wait for an hour ... there was air conditioning there heheee.
.
Friday ... tried on another little outfit Lyndon bought Maddison in India ... so cute. She liked the handbag best that matched the outfit! :-)


Lyndon worked on Friday and we went to town with Irene ... checked out several fabric shops, visited this really interesting button shop at the back of Chinatown. If you ever need a button, I'm sure you could find just the right one there! Floor to ceiling lined with little boxes fulled with buttons. Amazing!

Then after lunch and a few more fabric shops we went to PJ Hilton where they have this really neat display set up with five model trains. (Maddison was more interested in the Christmas tree!).
We weren't there very long ... Aaron decided he just had to get inside the fence, so we felt it best to leave (long story and it's not pretty. THE END).
This picture shows the five trains.
And this cracked me up ... check out the fat man lounging on the bench wiping his brow and the wife bringing him a plate of CAKE! Seriously ... what a hoot.

Saturday ... Mum and I left Lyndon and the kids at home and went to Scrap-n-Crop's Scrap Abode :-) Was so nice to shop and look without the kids tearing the place to bits hehee. The rest of the afternoon was just spent relaxing at home.
.
Today we've done our usual, got lunch from the local market and tea from the wet market on the way home.
.
Wonder what tomorrow will bring! Hopefully some time for me to do my Daily Album and actually get some pages complete so I can share them.

What a CUTE dress!! And oh my, I can just imagine how excited Aaron must have been to see all those trains ... I'm not surprised he wanted to get on the other side of that fence! LOL :0)

Enjoy the rest of the time with your Mum.

Oh my word has she ever grown! She is sooooo lovely and that dress is just plan fun. looks so soft. How do you keep the hair clips in? Zared pulls hers out so fast and hair in face. All seems to be going well for you which is great. We went to the USA for 4 months but are back and keeping up with you once again!
