My drawing

Look at my masterpiece. This is my 1st drawing that mummy think is worth blogging about. I was holding it upside down actually. In this drawing was a boat surrounded by many many fishes. Mummy said it looks so nice. My drawing skill has definitely improved over time. *grin*

1st Steamboat 4 Year of OX

Steamboat is mummy's fave and she has arranged a steamboat dinner over at our place for 2 of her good friends.

But before her friends were here, ye-ye and nai-nai came over for dinner 1st. Papa joined in too.

This papa was too greedy hungry that he dun wanna look at the camera. Hmm....mummy, enuf of foto-taking else ye-ye dun dare to start. :p

We went retro this year by going 'wireless' cos of didi lah. Ya, this cooker using canister gas has served mummy's family for years till mummy so old BIG. Gong-gong has brought it over from his house. Think mummy has the intention to kapo it over. Hiak hiak hiak...

Yummy dinner...even I had a big bowl of it but stretched over an hour of feeding and yelling by my mummy. Mummy's friends soon arrived and mummy joined them for a 2nd round of steamboat after feeding me till everything inside the pot was cleared. *burp* (",)

Chinatown...Here I come...

I pontang my usual ballet lesson as I was down wif flu and mummy worried the super mian lui aircon room for my ballet class will worsen my condition. Aiya, think she lazy to send me ter since she hasn't finish buying all necessary barangs for coming CNY. Morning was groceries shopping and it was until noon time then off we went to CHINATOWN.

I haven't been jalan-ing at Chinatown for long, not to mention didi. This time round not at CS where papa usually goes for his toys but really jalan at those crowded streets and shops while papa went to CS alone. He joined us later after his usual CS affair.

The human traffic was really frightening. Look at the crowd and the queue will put u off in buying things liao. Luckily mummy only wanna buy 2 things as her 'candy-box' aka 8 Treasure Box for CNY still short of gua zi the pumpkin seeds. She insisted to put the rose gua zi cos pinkish red looks auspicious rather than green like Hari Raya or white like Christmas.

She was looking for a new year cap for our dear Haro in the living room. Papa ever expressed his interest to buy It a cap since Haro wears X'mas cap every year. She found a shop selling it but left the displayed piece nia and moreover was the soft type. She dun mind last piece but thot wanna look around to see better deal. She walked around everywhere but couldn't find. She even went to the market oso in vain so at last walked back to the same shop to buy while we stayed put at some point to wait for mummy to return. It was then she met up with papa and together they went to get the cap.

They saw the hard type just NEXT DOOR and was a stack of it after buying the one-and-only piece. Darn....fated to have the soft type. Well, mummy blamed it on the crowd for overlooking it. She went up to check on the price and was more expensive. Heng ah else she will bang her chest and knock her head.

We waited near a stall selling mochi and TW hard Jellies and me think the sellers lurve didi to bits. Gave him and me each a mochi and a hard jelly.

Before Haro could wear the cap, me and didi oredi have a try on it. Do I look cute in it?

Wat abt didi? We are full of CNY mood...Counting down to the Lunar New Year!

Lost and Found

Somebody lost or rather abandoned the bicycle in the middle of the road and we found it quite pitiful so 'adopted' it back home. After a full overhaul of disinfecting, spraying and removing of unwanted and rusty parts, our 2nd bicycle is ready! Didi rode it home the moment we found it. He where got so pandai know how to cycle, mummy pushed him home of course. It was since then he claimed IT as his ownership. :p

My 1st Nursery Assignment

My 1st home assignment gotta be this Family Tree chart to be displayed in my classroom. I saw mummy doing it yesterday cos need to hand it up by tomorrow. I did my part too by telling mummy to remember to paste all our photos in it. Mummy has finished it (she grumble a bit oso lah, saying she could do a better one if given more time), what it need is lamination only. 

My work is not done yet, k? Still outta remind papa to bring it along and hand it in to Teacher Moon when he brings me to school tomorrow. :p

Yummy Goodies....

My mum and dad have super CNY mood this year. They have been baking new year goodies since Tuesday. For consecutive 3 days, they have produced 2 different types of pineapple tarts - one is the traditional look and another is the rolled-up type. Both are yummy....My FL loves the traditional type to bits.

Other goodies include 'bee-hive cracker', kok chye (inside with peanut) and kueh bangkit. Mum improvised kueh bangkit with 2 different flavors - one is the original and another is chocolate. This is HB's fave. Taste much better than outside cos will melt in the mouth...one word to describe it...SUPERB. If u ask me which is my fave? Hmm...I think I like ALL leh...tat's Y I'm putting on weight and falling sick soon...as I'm having sore throat, flu, cough and hopefully fever dun follow...choy....

Nothing beats home-made stuffs, indeed yummy!!! Wat's more??? Great for current recession...where $$$ seems so little and items priced so high!!! Hopefully I can equip myself with these skill too...

Wenz in Uniform.....

Wenz need to wear uniform on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday this year and I have yet to have the chance to see her in it myself.

Finally I have the chance to witness it as I could send her to school today. Though will be super late for work but it's worth it. Hope you will enjoy learning and playing in school. 

Bestie Birthday

My bestie aka BB's birthday falls on the 13th of Jan. We spent a short afternoon together dining and chatting as I have took 1/2 day leave. Not exactly like a celebration but to meet up with her as it has been some time since we last met. 

Bestie is a shy person (GNS) so she dun wanna to be on camera instead one of her babes, Glenys was in place of her. :p

We sat a while before going for makan. Glenys was attracted to the kiddy ride. I guess most kids love this. 

This was what happen if you dun give her coin, hiak hiak hiak.... She brought a lot of joy too during the short duration. Her 'parroting skill' was super good making me laughed. Kids ah kids, really noe how to manipulate you and target at your weakness.

Did I mention she is a poser too? Yup, see above pics to believe, full of different expressions. No wonder my bestie couldn't bear to put her at home. Glad thing was she did say 'Happy Birthday' to her mum. I believe bestie was happy to hear that even though Glenys didn't mean what she say cos those words sound juz sooo sweet and pleasant especially was from ur own child. 

Happy Birthday to You! Have a Great 2009...and a Great start of your life...

Poor US....

This is a sad posting....

Wenz has becoming more mischievous, more unstoppable, more defiant, more.... nowadays.....as a result, she broke the base of my stand fan. A super-duper KDK fan that has served me well for 7 years and still working perfectly fine. It has never fail me before but I fail to protect it from abuse and tarnish.

Wenz was not to be blamed totally, all started due to Denz. Denz stepped on the base 1st and being a notti monkey mimicking her didi's action, Wenz also stepped on the base but jumped on it. ONE jump is what it takes to break the base.

Wenz was telling her papa happily in the morning when HB sent her to school that "whenever papa wanna cane her, mummy will be ter to save her, whenever papa scolded her, mummy will try to salvage the whole situation". And NOW she gets the COMBO of BOTH....and I know I couldn't 'save' her anymore. A child needs to be taught what ought to be taught. The only sad thing is that she was caned by my BELT as HB couldn't find the cane. Didi was not spared either ('touch' a bit only to tame him down). The house has never been sooo quiet before. There was a total silence of at least 5 mins for the 1st time with the 2 kids wide awake at home.

So what happen to the fan? It has a big piece of 'plaster' pasted over it as the part where it was broken was very sharp and creates a potential hazard to didi. My poor fan, my poor Wenz, my poor Denz and poor ME. I was not spared from scolding and being accused for keeping the cane which I myself also dunno where the cane is. *scratch head* I found the cane at last, it was right on the top at the usual place but rolled right in. This cane really know how to make fun of US. I know HB was equally sad for the fan and the kids too. The theory of 打在儿身，痛再爹心 still applies. There was a saying of "there is no overnight feud between parents and children" and true enuf....the moment didi saw HB coming out of the room, he ran to him immediately and called "PAPA" with his super cute voice. :)

Xander 1st BD

We were invited to Xander didi's 1st birthday earlier at Aloha Loyang, the place where I celebrated my 1st birthday too but different unit of course. Mummy loves to book the Pool Terrace so she conveniently thot the event was at Pool Terrace 5 but nah...was at Bungalow 5. Dun assume the next time, mummy. It will only make an S out of U & ME. :p

Me think Xavier likes Thomas the Train instead of his didi, Xander. We could see the helium balloon from far before reaching the the unit.

Exploring the place and self-amusing are my forte. I went round picking up the stones and put it back...until mummy screamed called me not to play with dirty stuffs...and what else???

...and drink my water of course. :p

Buff-day boy is afraid of strangers. He cried non-stop the moment he woke up from his nap. Calm down liao then saw stranger cried again...poor boy...

His korkor has a totally different character. Xavier is friendly and playful. He is few months younger than me, which means I'm still a jiejie. ;)

As for papa, all he did was makan and makan and makan. Erm...okie, he oso chatted with his working frens whom he had not met them for long. Oh ya, Xander's papa aka Uncle Kang is his good fren @work leh. We did not stay for the cake-cutting which I think might be very very late. We left after about 2 hours cos need to catch the free shuttle service out to Pasir Ris MRT.

However, we did not head straight home. We went White Sands Shopping Mall jalan jalan..
Mummy was looking at CNY goodies and when she came to one stall, the staffs were super friendly. Not only they were generous in letting us try the 28 different samples but oso informed mummy the lobang of free foto-taking available. Only need to pay 40 cents to develop one print.

Papa and mummy took one shot with me too but we didn't buy any goodies back. I got sooo tired that I KO on my way home in the bus even with gummy candy in my mouth when I dozed off. Poor mummy carried me all the way from bus-stop back home.
