An Early Preparation for Winter

It’s still Spring time here in Shanghai but due to the global climate changes and the tropical storms ‘Megi’ which hits Guangzhou and Taiwan few days ago , Shanghai is currently experiencing a sudden drop of temperature by 9 to 10 degree Celsius and it will hit the minimum temperature of only 9 degree C by Wednesday. *shivering* Oh ... I hate the cold weather and missed summer sooooo much!! The chilly, windy and soggy weather everyday really drive my mood low because all of us are so looking forward to visit the World Expo again but due to the soggy weather, we have to put our plans on hold.

Digging into the pile of Angel’s winter clothing only to realized that Angel has outgrown almost all her winter clothing from last year (What a waste!). That means daddy’s ‘pocket’ will be shrinking a lot more again this month :( Choosing winter clothing for all of us will be a headache for me in Shanghai coz it’s either Price is acceptable but the quality / style is Out or ... the quality and style is acceptable but the price is making our eyes popped out, TWICE!! A good quality of ‘kids’ jacket or a pair of walking shoe in the shopping mall can easily cost a ‘minimum’ of RM400 / pc or pair! Absolutely ridiculous (coz it’s only used for a few months during winter time and kids mostly will outgrown their winter clothing by next winter!) and yet most of the time, the desire size will be sold out too. Sigh ...... no wonder it’s called SHANGHAI and everything is priced sky-HIGH :P

^ ^ First round of winter shopping for Angel. Doesn’t really liked the colour of Angel’s winter boots but hubby likes them a lot and it looks comfy on her :)

Bought some winter clothing for Annabelle 1 month back too and only found out those clothing might be too small size for her already when the winter time is here, sigh!! Annabelle is absolutely growing up in a lighting speed I must say (happy ^_^) ...... so I have stopped piling up winter clothing for this little girl for the moment being and probably will continue to shop for her when ‘the time is here’ :). So hard to estimate her growing speed now :)


^ ^ Some winter clothing for little Annabelle. Absolutely love the 'super duper mini sized' silver colour winter jacket from Mothercare and everything there in the shop!!! How I wish they cater adult size for the jacket too ......

So I can foresee that we will start dressing up like a 'dumpling' again soon and it's so troublesome 'coating' ourselves into those layers of clothings everytime we stepped out of the house. I have started to miss Malaysia already .....
