mmm train your kids to help you with sweeping the second floor? Sweeping isn't so difficult I guess and you're right about the taxing part. mmm you're right about getting the part time helper.

u bet! My girl and boy after seeing my mom cleaning the house with a cloth everyday, learnt to take a cloth to clean here and there...and both are so happy about helping! My boy can't walk yet, can only stabd at the table, take his hanky and clean clean clean...very cute :)

My girl can actually make her own bed, arrange her own books...but kids being kids, when they want to help, they really help, when they don;t they just leave the things lying around. :bangwall:

So cute!! I think... it's good for kids to make it a habit and to train from young for them to take charge of little things around the house. Then when they grow older they will continue with this habit. Otherwise they might just turn into lazy bums like my brother who doesn't even clear his own plate... haiz. train train train! :)

aubrey, they made our day! After a day of nonsense at work, it is great to be home and see them smiling and running about.

Cleaning part...I am still hoping to find a good part time maid to help me. so that I can spend more time baking and cooking!!! :)

Looking at your big house and so many people.. You really need a part time maid.. Even for my small 4rm, I'm also thinking of having one.. hee.. :)

carpentry work will end today! I wonder how long will they take to finish the o/s items :)

Elder Goh will be going to clear the house tomorrow, and I spoke to uncle about the o/s jobs and rectification works. They will do it in my presence as I will be locking up the place after Monday.

Solid top and granite top will be up next saturday, any rectifications will be also next weekend. If there is anyone who do not mind the distance and want to drop by, can come over next weekend :) Furniture and all will be delivered next saturday too! So looking forward to shifting in!!!

So sorry tt cannot make it today. I wanna join in the fun next wkend!

YAY Next week can I come too?? this week a bit under the weather...

I love the laminates on your shoe cabinet and meter thing!!! nice nice!!

agree with Pet, ur meter thingy is really nice! Like some mini feature wall. Mine was just a plain box-up for DB box! Uncle not fair one.. :bleah:

I'll PM u the contacts of the PT maid when gongkia's back ok? I dun have her contacts. But since she stays in Simei i think it shd be fine for her to go ur place too.

Pet: Shall we go together next Sat? :rolleyes:

hihi, hope I didn't caught you by surprise today! Thank for letting us view your house. The workmanship from my point of view is good. We love the kitchen. heeehee. And your daughter is pretty! :D
