voting day playground fun


27th August11, Saturday. Presidential Election Day. Its the 2nd time this year we as citizens of Singapore has to cast our votes to decide who's going to run our little nation... with my big baby belly, i walked in the slight drizzle to cast my vote... this time i really had no idea who i wanted as my president... Wish Tommy Koh ran for election instead, he sure has my vote! Mum had to return to punggol to cast her vote so our little family brought the baking things i packed to store at mum's place 1st... and then chill there, i played the piano while the father and daughter danced... then when it was time to lock up the house, our little family head to the playground.



happiest Kid... Nope its KIDS!
almost caught a shot of gx hanging on the bars!



my favourite shot of baby R at the playground


it has been months since we played at this playground and my daring baby R didnt give this rope climbing a miss... she went on several times and insist trying not only the centre but trying to climb to the top by the sides... daddy also insist on letting our gal try out the sides to let her know the difficulty she will face when she gets to the top so she would learn her lesson... She sure did... cos she hung at the top and was unable to pull herself up to the platform that she called her daddy for HELP! then when she tried the ropes again... she was in the middle.

some silly shots of mummy and cheeky baby R

managed to stop her to rest for awhile and she was off again,
up the stairs, down the slide, climbing up and sliding down!

daddy asked baby R to try getting in on her own.... after she tried, she asked nicely,
DADDY HELP PLEASE
somehow she managed to get out on her own and when she return to the dino again,
she managed to get in on her own!


the playground fun didnt end up nicely as always... power struggle with our stubborn gal!
we gave her count downs and we even secretly extended her fun time...
but she simply ignore us and told us
BYE BYE Mimi and BYE BYE Daddy...
gx told me to walk away and hide to watch... which i hate his method... to me is go means go. GX prefers to watch and scare her with our disappearing act... i hated it.. but i try it out with him.... so i was feeding mosqitoes while watching my gal from a distance... i was so heated up when i see my gal unafraid and so daringly running about the whole playground on her own. she wasn't scared at all even when she saw strangers walked by... she simply moved away further and not play near when she see strangers.. i dun know what GX wants to teach her.... i was frustrated... she jus kept playing on... cautious but she went on for 15mins and my patience ran low. i shouted LETS GO! i was so mad by the time we were in the car, baby R had  started crying as we headed from the playground to the car... i was so fed up, told my gal off and i ended in tears... GX said no more playground if she dun listen but thats not gog to work and we will go thru another fun time but in the end we sure wrap up being upset... i am not only handling stubborn baby R and i hated the  walk away and hide thing GX suggest... its not going to work and i feel that if worsens the situation and baby R gets her way still and it doesnt hurt her to do it all over agian if she gets the extra playing time... HELP... i feel so tired with both of them!
