tampines 1 photo

as mentioned in my earlier post about our trip to tampines 1, this is the picture that was taken for the tampines 1 promo advert. hmm... daddy and the rest of the family has been wondering if this little girl will appear in the ad.. erm.. as for me, i dun hold much expectations.. hahaha! i know my kiddo is cute but... she is not smiling.. AS USUAL! hahaha...

well, the ad will go out on 18th July (just nice.. itz my birthday!!).. let's wait & see if i will get my "best" birthday present then... hiaks...

our very own "magazine" cover

remember our studioloft shoot not too long ago? well, this is the "cover" design for one of the photo we had chosen..

like real sia? wonder when can i really be on the cover of a magazine with my lovely family?
*dream dream dream*~~~~~~~~~~~~

tis is the way i brush my teeth i brush my teeth........ so early in the morning..

missy has been given tis cutie toothbrush since last month cos she's always telling us "brush" when she sees us doing it in the mornings..

however, looking at the way she does it, i tink mummy still has to continue cleaning her teeth for her b4 bathing for a LONG time, lest all her teeth fall off... hahaha!

missy & her boyfriend dayan

jas brought dayan to join missy for her music class.. and proving our theory right is missy. our theory? dat she loves kids, especially handsome kids!!!!!! she was so not shy.. aiyo... i wonder wat will we do in future when guys turn up at our doorstep wanting to befriend her?? or when parents of the guys calling us up to get us to stop missy from seeing them?? hahaha.. ok. i m tinking too much.. oopsie!

shopping shopping!! tampines 1 & crocs

brought missy to tampines 1 with 美姨, 婆婆, mummy & dear...

heard abt the super-packed carparks in the vicinity so we decided to take the MRT instead. kinda regretted my decision while walking to the station cos itz excruciatingly HOT!!!

this is missy enjoying her walk... (while perspiring like mad... haha!) itz a lucky thing dat her hair is 'long' enough to be tied. else i wldnt know how to deal with the wet & smelly hair.. LOL..

missy enjoying her COOL train ride!

'水汪汪' ah lian.. check out the sitting position.. aiyoooooooooo

lunch was at manpuku @ tampines 1.

hmm.. well, heard lotsa reviews on this place prior to reali eating here.

and since it was mentioned on some TV program, it is a must try right?

esp the fruit tarts which the shop 'supposedly' makes only a limited 20 per day.

so here's the lowdown. only the udon, in my opinion was worth trying!

the sushi, sashimi & omu rice were ok but not fantastic. the wakame salad was so salty that it became bitter and i almost puked the whole portion out.

as for the tarts.. hmm.. we ordered 3 pieces at $7+ per piece. after tasting all 3, our table of 5 + 1 (wee wee...) unanimously concluded that the tarts are not worth the hype. they reali aren't that fantastic. it was more cream than fruits. the tarts look tall & big but not of substance. wat a waste to the super good looks of these tarts...

mango tart...

caramel banana tart...

pear tart

there was an event going on at the mall organised by 933 & the mall. they are taking pics of shoppers and if you are selected, u will appear as one of the many faces in their print ads! missy had her photo taken and the photographer was so tickled by her.. keke...

will upload the pic taken shortly.. watch out for it! =)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

and since we were going to take the train back to mummy's place after the shopping ard, dear & i decided to drop by expo for the crocs sale!

while walking towards hall 4A for the sale, we saw lotsa pple with at least 1 big bag of crocs and the following conversation took place..

me: "dear, these pple siao ar? got so cheap or not? they think free issit?.. wat economy downturn?"

dear: "hmm... ya man.. as if the shoes are free"

me: "will u believe it if i dun get anything later from the sale?'

dear: "hurhur... dunno.."

almost 1hr later, we came out with 11 pairs of crocs, and 8 packs of jibbitz and a damage of $265..

and needless to say, i kena suan-ed..

dear: "erm baby, i tot u said u wun get anything?? and the shoes are free?? whahahahhaha......."

this is the goodie bag we got for spending above $200 in a single receipt!! hiaks hiaks..

another wonderful shoot @ studioloft!

dear & i m on leave today to bring missy for shoot with our fav photographer, maryann at studioloft.. i wonder if missy's got something against the studio though.. she is so sticky to the both of us and soooo not co-operative just like the 1st photoshoot with them! hmm.. but nevertheless, with maryann's great skills, we were assured of great shots... (just dun ask me y missy ain't smiling in most of them.. if u can communicate with missy, pls ask her... hahaha!)

enjoy!

missy and her activities

recently missy has been "learning" her ABCs, keyboard and drawing.. however, this girl is a tough nut to capture on video! cos her "attitude" will come out liao ... tis is wat i managed though.. keke.. after many many tries... tsk tsk...







missy clearing out her masterpiece...


and starting on a new one...


the completed one! any takers at USD 1 million? wakakakkaa


this masterpiece contains something special.. 4 digits "6933" can be seen.. however, she is very "smelly" one and this number is not a winning number lor.. hahaha

this made my day... =)

hmm... as expected, i nvr receive any pressies from dear on mothers' day! grr... tink i must feed this man lotsa honey so dat he'll be saccharin sweet... haha..


instead, it was something i heard from 美姨that made my day!

she was saying dat while missy and mummy were waiting in the car on sunday for grandma & 珮姨, she asked missy if 姨婆 is pretty.. guess wat? hahaha.. missy replied "mama pretty".. LOL!!!

i m laughing cos i m soooooooooo happy! it doesn't matter how the rest of the world sees me or even how i see myself.. if i m pretty in the eyes of my dearest sweetheart, then something must have been done right!

happy mothers' day to all...

09.05.09 friday

had a great mothers' day weekend.. spent saturday with my dear girlfrens and wendy brought my godson zach (whom i hv not seen for few months) along! and gosh.. look how big he's grown! he's 7mths now and weighs 8.6kg if i didnt hear wrongly?? hiaks.. and he's sooooooo handsome hor?? got his mummy's good looks and daddy's head.. haha!

alas, we had to leave cream bistro shortly after we had our lunch as missy's tummy wasn't well.. LS thrice at the place itself and created such a ruckus.. i even had to take 1 pc of diaper from wendy.. keke.. lucky baby zach is big-sized enough to share diaper with missy.. ha! but i was so paiseh cos sam & shir had to go shopping without me.. hmm.. *mental note: must make it up to the girls*

my super duper handsome godson, Zachary...


missy before the LS attacks..


we ended saturday with a dinner at melben seafood at toa payoh with dear's mum & family.. nice crab beehoon! love the soup.. yummy... definitely much better than their AMK branch.. i remember having to wait 2 hours for my food the last round!!

10.05.09 saturday

missy and her music class at gymboree! i tink i can confirm dat she loves this class.. ha! more interactive... and she is able to follow the instructions! (though i need to prompt her at times la... ha!)

then it was my mum's cousin's wedding (oops! i know i shd say uncle but then... he's younger than me so.......) at orchard parade hotel...

珮姨bought a very beautiful little dress from States for missy for this occasion (knowing very well dat her niece (moi) is a very very very picky fella.. no frilly frilly princess tulle/ chiffon/ bling bling/ adult wannabe dresses for my missy.. young kids should dress young!).. thus this beautiful, simple dress!! and missy shares my good taste (hahaha! puke all u want!) apparently cos she was holding on to the ends of the dress and twirling round & round the house..

but erm.. when i tried to take pics of her, i dunno y she has tis "attitude" plastered all over her face! ha.. maybe she reali thinks she's a model?? hiaks hiaks...

and pics at the dinner!!

the good-looking TRIO!

oh.. just something to add before i go.. the wedding was a simple & nice affair.. u'd expect the young couple to be sabo-ed by their friends, right? ahem.. dat was not the case that nite.. instead, a table of very funny aunties (oh.. my aunties, grandaunties, uncles included.. my mum included too!!!.. and not forgetting my grandmother too!! piangz) started to YUM-SENG to the bridegroom's parents while the couple were going round to take pictures.. hahahaha!

very very funny sight! these oldies were so loud! they could tear the place down.. but know wat? they provided us with the most fun.. hahahhaaha...

HAPPY MOTHERs' DAY to all lovely & 'wei-da' mummies out there!!!
