We FiNaLLy MOVED IN!!!

YES!! The auspicious date was 18th November 2010 that we officially moved in! It's such a nice feeling to have a REAL HOME to go back to! Here's the place where we're going to build our family! So, I'll let everyone have a little peek at our place as I decided not to upload pics of every corner of our modest little home. Just to reserve some privacy for ourselves & the ''copyrights'' on our home furnishings & designs as I noticed there are LOTS of COPYCATS around! Hate it! Go get your own ideas, OK!

I love every bit & corner of our HOME...Da..I love you..thanks for everything!!

pRoJeCt LoVe NeSt upDateS

I know...I have not updated on our "Project Love Nest" for quite a while...but it doesn't mean that there's nothing done to it...here's a little update...we're planning to move in soon...on an auspicious date...hehehe...

The entrance~~with a little 'old-fashioned' light ~~ loooove it!! ~ Did you see the CCTV at the top right hand corner?? So, don't play-play & fool around near MY HOUSE!

U know what this is?? Hmmm...my SHOES WARDROBE!! Thanks, Da..:)

My wardrobe in the master bedroom..mine..all mine~~~la la la....

A sneak peek of the dining table lights & living room area..

I looooove my kitchen tiles!! (But it doesn't mean that I will be the one doing the cooking..hahaha)

BuSy BusY

Have been so busy lately with projects after projects that I hardly got time for Dada, our Europe trip research, as well as our Project Love Nest under construction at the moment. Hopefully, our house renovation is hopefully in good hands as Dada has been going up & down to ensure everything is in order & to convey my messages & expectations to the workers. Let's hope I'll like everything that I see when I finally get to go down & have a look. **fingers crossed**

IKEA GooDies

For the past 2 weeks or so, we went to IKEA couple of times to be 'inspired' by their ideas on home furnishing & goodies.

Besides planning for our little humble home, we also have a small unit in Genting to take care of & make it feel like as comfy as a home should be. So, we walked around & Dada threw all these into the shopping cart:

Item #1: Shoe rack just enough for my shoes for WORK only~~

Item #2: A set of organiser drawers for my accessories & make up kits!!

Item #3: A chest of drawers meaning ~ Room for more clothes!! yippee~~~

As I have blogged previously, we got the keys couple of months back. & the renovation is coming up soon. The only problem is; we find it hard to save $$ fast enough for it...hahaha...

Anyway, have paid IKEA many trips recently for ideas. I roughly have an idea of what I want. Biasalah...as I've always been known for being determine, stubborn & wanting things MY WAY...hehe...anyway, here are some ideas that I like & thinking of how to incorporate all of it into my small modest little home:

Thinking of having this in the bedroom as my little cozy reading corner..with fur, cushion & a cup of coffee for a relaxing afternoon (with AIR CON on of coz!!) ~ but I want this in white as the blue clashes with our bedroom theme

Oh yes, a Princess Bed for nobody, nobody but ME!! I've always wanted this after watching TVB's 'Triumph in the Skies' - Fit for the PRINCESS in ME..hehe

Now the MOST important part of the bedroom of coz...is NONE other than my wardrobe..which will occupy the whole wall next to the bed...wuahahahaha....

We quite like this dining table..not too big, not too small & best of all, we can choose the colour of the chair according to our preference & theme..hope they still have it when we're ready to purchase...hehehe

Now, I want this little bar table for us to probably dine there as an alternative instead of the dining hall, which looks sorta empty & pitiful if it's just the 2 of us only..plus, it's kinda 'romantic' with dim lights on, or just candlelight; don't you think so?? Hehe..

I have not spoken about this for quite some time, isn't it?? Well, it was because previously I was too occupied with other stuff & also partly because there wasn't much to update on our "Home Sweet Home" progress. But recently, the speed picked up & here's the update:

OK, besides shopping like crazy during our off days, we also went to have a look at our condo's site progress. We were delighted to see the progress thus far. No wonder there are rumors around saying we might be getting the keys before its initial expected delivery date. Let's hope so..**fingers crossed**

Here are some pics to share:

KiNRaRa Mas..OUR HOME!

Well, it's official now that we have already paid our first 10% & signed all the necessary documents. Actually, this has been happening all the while but I didn't want to talk much about it until everything is finalised.

Couple of days back, we went to the new showroom to sign the legal contracts & settle our payment. Our salesman brought us through the showroom again, which is the same unit type that we chose. So, let's go through a quick tour of how our little place will look like, as I might consider using some of the furniture & fittings in the showroom.

The neighbourhood

These are the 3 storey terrace houses in front of our condo. That day while walking around snapping these pics, I could easily picture myself taking evening walks with Dada & our children..watching them play with the neighbourhood children, ride bikes & chase around. Haha..dream on~~but it's a nice & sweet dream. Should wake up from this dream & make it happen in real life!

I'm really excited!
