Klaire's 1st Bday~

This time we bring the party out of our house. We booked a chalet at Aloha Loyang (via Paul's help). I thought it would be easier, with lesser things to clear as it is not my hse..(wicked laugh), but I was so totally wrong. It was even more hectic..there's tons of things to bring.

1. BBQ stuffs (we book 2 nites and 1st nite was a gathering for frens)

2. Babies' stuffs

3. Our stuffs

4. Birthday stuffs

5. Making trips to n from home as I would rather the kids to have a proper bath n nap at hm.

Klaire wasn't in the best of health. She was running a temp the night before the party which explained y i insisted to bring her home prior to the party. Poor bday girl.. the overnight stay outside of home must have made her feel uneasy. My new helper fell sick too after the event..(how great is dat?)

Overall the event was very successful! With too much to eat and drink.(phew luckily!) keke..Kudos to my lovely bro and sis, JH and Cavis, who helped me in tons of logistics which i couldnt attend to as I have to look after the kids.

Her customized banner. Yes! Its Barney and frens theme.

Miserable Barney who's missing his frens 2 tier cake. haha

The Barney agar agar which deserves a thumb up!

My cheeky girl whose smile brighten up my life...

The very distinguished bbq crew! Thank you!

Party flavours to perk up the kids!

The very huge amount of food!

Muacks! from lil Klaire~

Klaire's Lunar Birthday

I tried to keep it the same as Kirsten. To avoid unfairness. Haha.
Klaire is lunar 1 on 1/8/11(2/7/11) and we prepared chicken drumstick, egg and mee sua for her to feast on!
Unlike Kirs, Klaire is a glutton.lol she loves to eat..about anything!

There's the mee sua...

                           

and the drumstick..

 Tadaa....the future deciding time again......lol

Ready...get set....

She choose the red egg!

And then, toy with the measuring tape!

Down memory lane, below is wat I wrote for Kirs Lunar bday..........

"Seriously, I aint sure what to prepare. So I put on my innovative cap and came out with the followings :

1. Drumstick - To never to fret about no food in future? A prosperous life? F&B line?
2. $10 Note - To never to fret about no $$ in future? A wealthy life? Banking line?
3. Measuring Tape - A fashion designer? A tailor?
4. Red egg - See item 1
5. Pen - Scholar? Office job?
6. Book - See item 5
7. Abacus - Able to count. Finance line?
8. Hammer - Judge? Workers' Party? Engineering?
9. Toy Computer - See iten 5 & 6 "


I used a calculator instead of abacus, a $50 note instead of $10 note and I forgot the pen...
So, Klaire might be in the FnB line or lead a prospeous life as a fashion designer or tailor. LOL

Insist to bite the drumstick with her 8 lil teeth... hungry huh?! thats my lil gluttony apple

Fun Time at the Zoo!

We revisited the zoo on July 2011..(Since the last dismay on Oct 2010). Woah! Kirs was jus 16 mths and Klaire 2 mths old dat time!

This time round, the gers could appreciate the zoo more since they are 25 months and 11 mths old now.

Kirsten was fascinated by all the animals while Klaire was trying to figure out wats going on..lol..

The weather was hot and humid. The waterplay adds much to their delight!

Klaire's 1 yr Studio Shoot

Time flies....It is now Klaire's turn to take her 1 yr old photoshoot. After sourcing a few studios, I decided to use back Sean Lau Photography.
Thay have since changed, Sean Lau is now the creative director and he is not the photographer anymore. They are now called Studio Play.

Heres my fav of the different sets -

HongKong 19/5 - 23/5

Pumpkin's 1st oversea trip! Her and my many first....first time on plane, first time to Disney land, etc...

I tink she enjoyed herself very much. During the trip, I can see she was very enthusiastic and cheerful. And when she's back in Sg, she cried for a good 1 week when gg to school.

Whereas for me and Rie, it was tiring as most times, this lil rascal preferred to be carried (most of the time by me!) Rie banned our kids from overseas shopping and leisure trip until they are at least 5. As he felt that there are too many restrictions and both adult and kid will not enjoy to fullest. I agree to a certain extent, but turning back the clock, I still will choose to bring my da baobei along. =)

Major nightmares

1. Wailed for an hour during the 1st nite. Coax her by telling stories and stuff. (luckily, 1st nite only)

2. Carried her for almost half a day! like 70% of the trip

3. Threw tantrums in the plane when coming home. I guess is the timing. 8pm flight back. She was affected by the pressure and couldnt fall asleep. yet very sleepy. therefore = to cranky.

Things that I prep for her 1st trip

1. 40 x diapers (used about 35)

2. 1 x 900g enfa (finished)

3. 10 x sets of clothings

4. Medicine and oilments

5. Bibs

6. Fork and spoon and bowl

7. instant porridge for babies (never eat at all)

8. Snacks

9. bottles, thermals

10. Toiletries

11. 2 x pair of shoes

12. Pillow and blanket

Special thanks to all my bros and sisters during the trip, for helping with the stroller and being so patient. Couldnt have survived carrying a sleepy Kirs and running  for shelter in the rain without u peeps!
