Halloween 2012

Sneak peak of trick or treating this year.
Last year my daugther was dressed as a moo moo cow.
This year she is the lil dutch lady.
I love love the costume so much. Have been wanting to purchase this since last Halloween, but since it is just 1 size, i have to wait until this year.
I think it was worth the wait as now she can walk on her own and the funny part is she loves herself  lol.

Once she was in the costume, i showed her in front of the mirror and she smiles.. the girly girl smile.

New Headbands from Holiday Collections

Here are some new headbands that I made last week.
I gave the red hydrangeas to my friend who just gave birth to a cute baby girl just a day before Halloween. Look forward to see baby "G" wearing the headband. To see more of the headbands, please visit my fan page and dont forget to "like" Applebeary Bowtique

Dallas trip

My husband travels quite often. I used to feel super lonely when he was away. Then when i have my daughter, i was hoping that she will make me super occupied and forget about hubby not being here. it worked but since she is still 20months only that mean i have to be single mother for a week or so.
Kudoes to all single mom out there. No ideas how you all survive and not being insane???

Anyway, this time finally we drove to Dallas and stay with my cousin while my husband was away.
The plan was to checked out all the shopping places in Dallas. However, only managed to visit Highland Park Villages and Galleria Dallas.
The cold virus and the cold front really tainted our stay.

My cousin took us to Sprinkles, the gourmet cupcake place. we were lucky since there were only 2 people in front of us. However, by the time I finish ordering, the que was already overflowing.

They have children chair and table. My daugther and my cousin's son enjoyed themselves pretending having a high tea maybe???
Look at how cute they are

Hello, August 2012

Hi there,

My husband was away for 8 days for business trip to Asia.
So I was alone with my daughter and in order to fill the days with activities, we did a lot and i mean a loooot of playdate with different kids.
From brunch with my friend at Hop Doddy with a kobe beef burger, playdate with friends, another lunch at CPK with a new friends.
Finally hubby was home with he got some japanese flu virus so he wont be able to help me much around the house.

So whenever my daughter was napping, i managed to be abit creative and made some headbands.
I thought I did quite a lot but i guess it is just a design in my head and these are the finished headbands.
Will create those in my head one at a time whenever time allowed :)

Let me know your thought

Quarry Splash Pad -Leander

Over the weekend, we were invited to our neighbour's Cinderella themed birthday party. She turned 3. The party is held at Quarry Splash Pad - Leander. It is located inside the Williamson County Regional Park. The park was huge but there is no sign whatsoever about the splash pad. We drove around and only see tennis court, stadium like track, etc. With 2 GPS and let hubby go find more direction from the model home nearby, we finally managed to arrive there :)

As per the name, it was a quarry that is turned into a splash pad. There were sands pit, mini rock climbing for kids and the splash pad itself.
My daugther loved playing with water so much so this a no brainer hard core entertainment for her.
She was shy around the people in the party. She stays at home with me all the time, so this shyness is the byproduct of it. But once she was in the splash pad, she giggled, screamed and running around happily. Our neighboured even mentioned that he never saw her like this.

After about 1 hour playing with water, we decided to finish playing since the weather was so hot, it was 105 degree, but my daughter is not having it. So we gave her extra time to play before we have to lift her up with all the screaming and struggling to get back.

unfortunately, my hubby's phone is running out of battery due to the GPS and i forgot to bring my phone. We ony managed to take 2 pic of her playing with the small water splash. We will definately come back even if just to make some memorable picture of her and the bigger water splash :)
Truely a fun family day!
