2011 Hi5 show

4th Dec11, Sunday

baby R earned enough stickers to get her reward... thou she kept asking to go back to million balls, we went ahead to give her the surprise i had planned... to catch the Hi5 show! knew with baby A there is no way i can go queue early to get baby R a ticket to take pics with the Hi5 team... gx will not queue either and he won't be able to handle 2 kids on his own... so we could only make it for the show and when we arrive, the stage area was jammed packed! we managed to take up the last plot of space at the back and we were prob the last set of people allowed into the sitting area! baby A's first xmas show at malls!

i know all the songs, not all the lyrics but sure can join in the chorus!

baby R is alittle shy and prob excited to see the hi5 in person!

She tried her best to move along but at times, she jus looked at 5 of them!

Hi5 sure have good stamina! they jus keep moving non-stop!

baby A was a good gal... she slept thru the show! i covered her ears cos afraid its too loud for her tiny ears! as usual with baby in hand, after the show we head to the baby room to change diapers for the gals and baby A pooed! then i changed her into long sleeve cos it was pretty cold in the mall!

i had my crabby ramen and somehow i jus didnt take a liking to it thus it mit be our last time here!

got our xmas gift-exchange presents and we head home to rest!

anger management

19th Jan12

trying to update as much but jus need to throw it out of my system!

this has been on my mind for sometime! 

when someone kinda say copy? pot calling kettle black! inspiration dun belong to jus you and i used the idea and i am copying ... what about you? well at least i worked my brains to add my own touches. seriously which part is it that is similiar? if i had to i say thank you it will be to Martha and Amy for sharing their ideas! 

also i really can't wait for 2nd quarter... hate being held back of my plans jus becos its not what you wished for... its not fair! i have every right to go ahead with what i want but i held back to not create another episode... i will hold my anger... 

Do not tell me plans that will upset me... esp if you know i had waited for thousand years for it to happen. Dun suggest something that seems the best cos it isnt with me... 

with all the anger ... i must grow stronger. i can do it. i must do it. i will prove myself i can handle it. i look forward to so much more in the coming months. i must be happy, i will be happy! 

mini party

3rd Dec11, Saturday.

the buys were taking up space and i didnt want to wait till xmas party to give out our little gifts to immediate family members so i got baby R to give it out when we meet up at bro's house for our family's weekend gathering...

in addition it seems a pretty good day to give out our gift cos my little nephew turned 6mths old and it was my sil's bdae too! sis got a classic blackforest cake from Hans and since i didnt have it for so long since SI days... it taste pretty good!

I bought along the eric carle box of toy to entertain my gal at bro's house

no crayons cos worry she draw on bro's furniture thus this helped to keep her down!

baby R loves this activity and i kept it at mum to keep her interested!

2011 Xmasy Tree

1st Dec11, Thursday.

baby R was super excited when i took out our mini xmas tree!

baby R happily hung the bells on the xmas tree with me!

Our white and red 2011 xmas tree!

2 first times on a Sunday!

27Nov11, Sunday.

baby R's first flower gal rehearsal and she refused to even step into church

telling daddy  "inside got dinosaur!"

daddy stayed out with baby R while i was inside waiting for the instructions from the pastor.... slowly daddy managed to get baby R in but she was still in tears and crying out once in awhile... daddy show her there's no dinosaur but she still cried so i left her out of the trial walkin... then daddy came to tell me now our gal is crying saying she wants to walk in! DUH! i wanted baby R out so that she dun mess upon the actual big day! but lucky she did well with her 1st try and we decided to play by ear since the couple thought she did well! 

daringly, i decided to proceed on with my plans to great world after the rehearsal... cos its the 1st time we are bringing baby A along and funny thing is the 1st place we brought baby R out was also to Great World City! we grabbed dinner at Kenny Rogers... somehow this is out haunt we always end up at GWC! baby R loved the corn muffin! i had to carry baby A in my arms thru the dinner... daddy sliced up all the meat for me so i can poke my fork into the slices and pop it into my mouth! GX took care of baby R and at times fed me too! all went well till we left the restaurant baby A cried so loud and won't stop and she was crying so hard she turned so red! took me awhile to calm her down! gx almost lost his cool... haha.... can't blame him cos once we arrived we head for the baby room to change diapers and after dinner... baby A pooed thus we needed to head to baby room once more... then we went to shop and then it was baby R's turn! 

on our third visit to the beautiful baby room ... i took our my hp cos camera batt was dead, to snap pics of my gals and daddy cos they were all in the same colour and demin theme... when gx saw the gals in their jumper and pink tops... he went to change into the light pink tee i bought him for 1st fathers' day and no complains from the big guy at all! GX hardly put that tee on becos of the colour but he sure willing matched both his gals! then i was the one complaining i dun have anything in light pink! i settled for a blue spag top that had demin elements on the top... i was almost a match but kinda glad i didnt totally had the same as them if not we might look weird! love the pics of the gals with daddy and the one they took with me!

baby R took quite a good shot for baby A, daddy and mummy!

i  cropped off her little finger and the pic still looked good!

then baby R got bored so she went into the other room to sit on the sofa while gx and i took turns to take our individual pics with baby A... in comparison to baby R, we really took less pics with baby A. the baby room at GWC is nice and for breast-feeding mummies, the armchair is comfy and setting is calm and chic but the aircon can be alittle cooler... or maybe its jus me... rushing up and down and hurrying with cleaning the kids' bums... maybe its jus me, feeling HOT!

Million BALLS!

26th November 2011. Saturday

For the first time, i left baby A out  and also for the first time hit the malls to shop after so long being indoors... baby A was "abandon" with my mum while we brought baby R to give her some attention and bring her out to have some fun... we chose PP cos its the nearest and i had a whole list of places to hit to get items needed for the kids and for xmas. We bought enough to let baby R go into the play area and when i named it million balls, baby R sure agreed and she kept saying million balls alot after the experience of going thru the million balls!

baby R was actually under age... she has to be 3 or 4 to be able to go into the million balls! but we jus let her go thru it! it was tough for her to move on cos of her height and having so many balls surrounding her and beyond made it quite tedious for the little one and she was so slow! there is a time limit for each kid and to help her move on the 'jiejie' had to go to her rescue to guide her into the next area and someone else leads her to the end!

didnt get a pic of how long this was but if u know how long the basement "exhibition" area is thats how long this million balls was! the management is very smart... knowing kids would not come out that easily when told to... like my gal, she tried to stay as long as she could in the last section till there were too many kids coming in her way that she was asked to come out but she was given a sheet of very nice Stitch stickers! We didnt check if the outdoor area had any events cos we were running late back to see baby A! 

again my first meal after confinement was Jap! baby R loves Udon! i jus had to have softshell crab but i was quite disappointed with it cos not as nice... My main shop i hit was mothercare to use the vouchers given by aunt A to get baby A a little warm cardigan so she can wear to my cousin K's wedding. Unexpected shop we went into was the old borders was was taken over prob temporary by times and its more like a warehouse sales and we got a few items for the kids! The eric carle game was $10 and the VCD were $2 each!

baby A was not sleeping well and she kept awake waiting for us... it made me feel bad and that was so far the last time we went out without her... baby R was so excited for the whole week she had wanted to earn stickers to go back to play the million balls but we had other plans installed for her!

Pop goes the weasel - PR surprises lovely gifts

Peter Rabbit Gifts

When i decided the theme for baby A's full month party, i started my search locally for peter rabbit items and its hardly visible in the market or on the local websites! So the party stuff i ordered directly from states and after the party is over i saw them on the shelves in shops here... but for sure some items arent found here  is the cot set my aunt M got for me from Shanghai! i had asked her if peter rabbit is easily found in SH and she gave me a website to shop and she kindly got this as a gift for my dear gal! the side bumper, bedsheet, pillow case with pillow and blanket in the set!

Another PR present esp from down under!

the other person who knew about my PR theme party was Cousin T! By great chance after i asked her to help me to keep a look out, she spotted this cute Jack-in-the-Box Peter rabbit! the is so cute! she was so kind to lug it all the way back from sydney and was so nice to give this as a gift to our little gal for her full month! 

when we unwrapped the present, the happiest one laughing, giggling away was Baby R! She loves while listening to the tune of Pop goes the Weasel... anticipating when PR would jump out of the box and everyone would see her shocked look and then hear her super ticklish laughter and laugh along with her

at the party we also received a Zoobie Peter Rabbit from my dear friend I! 

we yet to open up the zoobie PR to use thus not sure how the blankey looks like!

**

Also my cousin A and i bought some PR themed books for baby A!

these are jus 2 of the lot!

i do have more than this! Started back in June, i chanced upon a water tumbler too and it was a super good buy that i paid less then $8 for it! when the gals are older i mit repeat their 1 years old theme again to let them enjoy cos at 1 month old or 1 years old, they would hardly enjoy what i had planned!
