More gatherings and outings to come!

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~

Happy Birthday Singapore!

Rie ballotted for NDP rehearsal and we finally got it! 4 tics to the full dress rehearsal on 31st July 2011.

It wasn't the 1st time I attended NDP (I went during my JC times at the stadium). But this time is different as it is at Marina with all the skyscapers and significant landmarks in singapore, Rie, my mummy, Kirs and me attended the event. This is the 1st NDP they eva went.

Kirs was having slight fever and unwell dat day. Was so worried she couldnt stand the heat and humid and fuss. Luckily she was cooperative, but dun expect a bubbly her. So glad there were lots of happenings that distracted her from feeling miserable.

The water performance and the fireworks were fabulous! really left us in awe.....


Packet drink is her good fren....

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!

Mothers' Day~

I recieved my 1st ever Mothers' Day gift. Butter cookies from my pumpkin!

It was actually done by her teachers in CC. But she did assist by cutting the shapes. Well, applaud for the efffort~

P.S I only ate 1-2 pieces. She finish the rest herself.....

We celebrated Mother in law's birthday cum Mother day together. We had lunch at Oasis taiwanese porridge at TPY. My all time fav restaurant for nice lovely cockles! hah!

The Ks had loads of fun with Vince n Celia, father and mother.

When I turn....beep beep 1...

As I get older..the need for a great bday bash is not in my wish list anymore. All I want is a contented dinner with my loved ones, a nice gathering n chilled out.

This yr, my bday fall in the period of the GE campaign. I wanted to watch the rally of WP at the Serangoon stadium. But the crowd was horrendous! Me and Cavis wasted a good 1 hr in the jam n decided to forgo it. We drove past the stadium though. It was like National day in Serangoon. Haha. We met up with rie shorly after and went to Bark cafe for a nice alfresco dinner.

After the dinner, we chilled out at my place n count down to my day with  lovely cupcakes from Sis Cavis, made lovingly from Patissier. It really looks too nice to eat. Too pretty!

 A lovely Chanel shades from Sis and a Chanel timeless classic bag from Rie..Total bliss out. ..

Can you see mini me? lol

The sisters gave me a very nice birthday gift. I.e a 2d1n stay in Batam with all expenses paid! So off to Batam we went on my actual Bday. We went for shopping, spa n seafood. Not forgetting Rie hit 1st prize at 4D, wat a lovely way to end the perfect weekend!

Only dismay was I did nt spend it with my children. But nt to worry..there will be many more loving memories to come....

The Khoos, Tohs and Low-Tan...

Shirley's Batam fren who brought us around ..Great hospitality!

Note : This year G.E ended up with oppositions taking 6 seats, WP winning Hougang and Aljunied GRC. This marks a new political scene in Singapore where Foreign Minister George Yeo was forced to resign. Mr S.T Chiam lost Potong Pasir. Salute to Mr Chiam n WP for their great fight! I'm a non PAP supporter. =P
