I'm a chef =D

Mummy got bonus for the year (not alot, really not alot..boo) so darling got herself a new toy ;) (what an excuse for getting a new toy for darling). Its a mini kitchen set! We went to uncle winson's place a few weeks back and mummy saw darling having hsuch fun with it and so decided to get one for darling too... Though the box states an age which is darling's current + 4 .. haaa
Anyway, mummy is afraid most of the food, utensils, forks and spoons would be lost in a few weeks time! Mummy's tinking of DIY some 'food' for darling too.. using paper or cloth.. whilst daddy can make food using darling's doh =D

Here's my little chef at work:


and the Slimz's chefs =D


Heee.. my little chef has an apron too =D hee.. its actually her ArtnCraft apron!

Poor darling fell sick =(

We wanted to go for a family outing to the zoo on 20th Jun, celebrating Fathers' Day as well. But our poor darling fell sick. It the first time darling is sick apart from her normal injections related mild fevers so we were all caught off hand!

She had fever on Friday morning and mummy fed paracetamol to bring down her temp. After that mummy went off for work leaving darling with Po Po. Who noes in the afternoon darling's fever persisted and she started to LS! Mummy panicked and quickly called daddy (who happened to be on leave) to bring darling to the doc. So sad that dr tay at HG Mall has stopped practising =( and so daddy brought darling to dr koh at amk sbcc. Verdict frm dr koh - viral infection in stomach resulting in LS and high fever.. =(

That nite darling's cousins came and stay overnite coz its sch hols and will set off for Zoo on sat morning tgr. But with darling's fever and LS still persisting .. We decided dat mummy and darling shall stay home whilst daddy go for the zoo trip with ah ma and the rest. (we din wan to call the whole ting off coz we were the one who suggested for it..and everyone was looking forward to it..) Mummy din sleep the whole nite, keeping watch over darling's fever and changing her diapers once she LS to prevent rashes… at 3am her fever got really high and the med din seems to be working! Daddy rushed down to our 24hrs NTUC and got ice packs to stick on darling.. But still high high and so we decided to go KKH A&E. Over at KKH, the dr gave darling Nurofen (via mouth) but darling vomitted it out and so, no choice, the med were given via darling's bums! BOOOOOOOOOOO .. Darling was screaming when mummy put her down on the bed and when the med was inserted she SCREAMED and CRIED and BIG BIG tears came. Darling was screaming "ma ma, ba ba" throughout … sobzzzz… so poor ting .. Boooo ..

Sat was WAR.. Darling used at least 30 pcs of diapers with her LS… in the end mummy decided to let her wear pants and sit potty. Eating oni diluted porridge the whole day, lots of water and all kinds of cooling liquids/mixtures from Ah ma and po po. Of course BM as well. Darling latched on at least 10 times a day, guessed it's the oni way she can get comfort frm her pain… so mummy gave in.. Sat evening everyone came over to visit darling. Ah ma, ah gong, da bo, da bo mu, po po and gong gong… ah ma even da bao dinner over for us.. Dat evening darling's bums started to ve rashes and would scream and put up a fierce fite everytime she LS and we clean her up .. Haizzz… *heartpain*

On Sunday fever has subsided but LS still come n go and of course reddish bums. We had to give GUG class a miss. Initially we wanted to bring darling there but she decided to take a nap at 1030 and din wake till 2pm.. Class ended liao =P

Darling recovered from her LS sometime on Tuesday and the rashes went off by Wednesday. What an ordeal! Really hope darling wont catch any viral attack again.. Tiring for all and painful for her =( booo

Haizz.. And we missed our zoo outing =( .. We are planning an underwaterworld outing in mid july… *cross fingers* noting goes wrong …

GUG - 1st term

Darling has completed her 8 classes at GUG.. An update on all her classes and performance =P
1st class - Q
This being the first class, darling was overwhelmed by the veri enthusiatic teachers and cried when teacher Russell came too near =P Daddy was not able to join us for our first class (need to work) and so mummy went through with darling for the entire 1.5hrs. Today's alphabet is Q and darling's first piece of art n craft work is playing with cling wrap, glue and glitters. The cling wrap was pasted on a paper and glitters were sprinkled all over it.



2nd class - R
Today darling was very excited by the rabbit soft toy (from the ZOO bag) and she hugged and kissed many times =D No art n craft was done today. Instead they played with cereals n jam, sticking cereals to paper plates with jam. Hee...darling prob enjoyed eating the cereals more than anything else!

3rd - S
Darling continued with her love for the "animal" from the ZOO bag.. and she kissed .. Sammy the Snake today! HEEE.. and well, as teacher Wei would say, only Sammy Snake is kissable, the other snakes that we see outside would be too dangerous for kissing =P
Today's art piece - "S"TAR

4th - T

There was a story telling session today, about the little cat who wanted to be like a tiger, growling/roaring/jumping around!
Today darling played with poster colors.. teacher wei showed the children how would mixing the colors RED and YELLOW gives us ORANGE. Some glue was mixed into the colors so that the black stripes of the tiger would stay on =D


5th - U
No art n craft today. Instead the class had their first encounter with flour, what a mess! buckets of flour and shreds of crepe paper were placed into tubs. Little animal toy figurines were 'hidden' in the tubs and the children was asked to dip their hands in to find the figurines.. darling ended the session with her hot pink socks turning white with flour!

6th - v
Today's animal was vincent the vampire bat.. who did not come out from the ZOO bag.. instead it was hanging from the ceiling like most other bats would. The class was asked to 'find' him =D
Vegetables painting - Carrots and Cucumbers were used

7th - w
When we reached the school today, we realised the BIG GUG bear was missing from the front desk .. something's wrong?

The session started rather differently, with art n craft done during the first session (its normally done at 2nd half).
See darling's watermelon art piece, green was colored using the paintbrush which darling still hasn't learnt how to hold properly.. :

2nd session was the BIG BEAR HUNT! Now we know why is the BIG bear missing at the front desk! It started with story reading of a book titled "The Bear hunt" .. in the story, the children waddled through the rivers (tubs of water was prepared in the classroom for the children to waddle in!), under the trees (streams of green crepe paper were pasted on on the door frame and the children walked under them!), crawled through tunnels (there was a tunnel in another classroom which the children have 2 crawl through to get to the BIG bear!) .. darling went through all the obstacles.. hee.. except the last .. coz she saw the BIG bear in the room and ran straight at it, skipping her last obstacle course!
This is mummy's favourite session so far =D

8th - v
Today's art n craft involved painting Xavier Fox and pasting his tail .. we dun ve the snapshot of it coz its still in class =D

1st term review:
Hee.. darling should be graduating to the parents n tots class for the 2nd term coz she is past 18mths.. but when mummy called the sch to query, we were told that darling's whole class would be 'retained' .. haa.. cant promote to the tots class!!! Reason being: teacher wei and teacher russell thinks the class is not ready for tots class, they would prob need another term to learn to settle down in class n listen to instructions =P Furthermore the tots class students would be exposed to reading of 3-letter words!.. darling haven master her 26 alphabets yet =P So mummy's ok to let darling stay in babes class ;) And mummy thinks darling loves teacher wei and teacher russell after all these 8 classes.
Verdict: sign on another term ;) and pray that the same teachers would be with us .. =D

Liwen's wedding

14 June 2009 - Sunday

CONGRATULATIONS Liwen!!! Its finally here.. and over... All the busy preparations all for this important big big day. Mummy used to say its actually a 'wayang' session.. haa.. for the elders, relatives to 'watch'..

The day started in the morning with the typical gatecrashing, 8 xiong dis and 9 jie meis, ultra crowded! haa... the Groom had to go through "pit stops" which includes the QnA with sour/sweet/bitter/hot as punishment, buying of clues, picking beans with chopsticks, running around the compound (good exercise in the morning!).. a little misfortune was one of the jiemeis were injured at the last "pit stop" when the xiong dis decided to bulldoze themselves into the bride's room..
After the fun gatecrashing session, its the more serious praying and tea ceremonies at both the groom and bride's place. And the bride n groom went to the hotel for their rest before the nite event..

Hee.. some fotos from their album to share (hee... do i need to pay for copyrights for posting these?)





The wedding dinner reception is at Swisotel (clark quay), splendid location for us.. hee.. NELine =D We got there slightly before 7pm and went to the bridal room to look c look c =D
Mummy took pictures with the pretty bride .. hee.. shirui darling too!



Shirui darling and geral played with each other for a while .. hee.. hugging, catching, chasing, kissing each other! so fun to c them play =D and liwen's mummy kept commenting that darling has lost weight!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Poor charmine wasn't oo used to the big place, the big crowd and did not get into the ballroom the whole night. Mummy brought darling out of the ballroom, looking for Charm and when we did find them, charm was 'overwhelmed' by darling's advances too (despite being the same generation).. hope she would grow to adapt to such situations soon =D oh ya, and charm has been signed up for the same GUG class (slot) as darling! Charm, cya at GUG this sunday =D

When we got home that nite, mummy realised we din take any other photos, hmph! Mummy was busy with shirui darling the whole nite.. hmmm .. Hope the PG took some pict of geral n sr playing together .. hee... so cute.

Our 1st in-house playgroup

13 June Saturday 1630hours
YEAH! its finally here and mummy's more excited than darling over the session..? hee
It started out with an ambitious group of 9 kiddos (3 over 3yrs, the rest are born in 2007). However some mummies and their little ones couldn't make it and in the end there were only 3 children, including darling shirui..
Jiawen and mummy were on time and YUM YUM YUM.. HEE .. Jiawen's mummy baked cakes! soooo talented.. the orange flavoured cake is something new and refreshing.. thumbs up

Zhixin 'overslept' for her afternoon nap.. haa.. so she came over with mummy Wan oni at ard 5. Brother de wanted his dearie beauty sleep in the afternoon and hence was not here.
Our session started with the kids and mummies in darling's room for sing-along and story reading time. Toys were put into a big white bag and all the tots had a go in getting a toy out from the bag. For each toy out of the bag, a song related to the toy was sung. We sang the "BINGO Dog", "5 Little ducks" and "Fly fly butterfly" songs.
After the first round of ice breaker, we all 'jumped, walked, swinged' ourselves to the ZOO, singing along to the "We'r going to the Zoo" tune. Mummy read "Elmo goes to ZOO" book which introduced animals like Ellie the Elephant, Zeke the Zebra ...
Den its Art n Craft time! Vegetables painting! Mummy and sweetest daddy prepared the vegetables before the 'class' started (while darling shirui was napping in the early afternoon). Hee.. pictures of the veg after the session:


Colors used were RGB - the primary colors - Red Green Blue.
Take a look at the art pieces and our little artists at work =D



Lastly is the makan session.. yummy cakes
Jiawen ...
Zhixin ...
Finger sucking good huh Zhixin?

Stay tuned for our 2nd session!
