we are going to the zoo... again!

it was a beautiful wednesday on the 9th June.. beautiful weather after having rained 2 days before, the sun was up and we were off to the zoo!

i can remember the 1st time we went with adri. it was during the CNY last year and we had fun despite her wobbly steps cos she's just learnt the art of walking not too long ago then.. and we thought y not bring her to the zoo again? she loves animals and at this age, it'll be a good time to "test" her knowledge and expose her to more species out there (except of course, for DINOSAURS.. her all time fav and her life-long "ambition". asked her what she wanted to be when she grows up and gave her several "options" like a STAR (明星), lawyer, doctor etc and her answer was "i wanna be a TIGER!" followed by " i wanna be a DINOSAUR!".. tsk tsk..)..

anyway, she enjoyed herself thoroughly & we did too! surprisingly, she did most of the walking and the heavy bag went on her stroller instead.. hmm.. she had fun touching the guinea pigs/ goats/ rabbits and we had fun watching her!

she even had the mood to joke to some caucasians and local teenagers when we were viewing the giraffes. she was watching the animals when she turned suddenly. put 2 hands to her cheeks and went "ROAR!!! weewee is a dinosaur!!" to the 2 groups of pple who obviously had fun watching her too.. haha! wat an entertainer and wat a waste she doesn't wana be a 明星.. hiaks!

so cramped... =P

... i am referring to this blog post.. cos i m gonna squeeze my past mth's activities all into a single post! wkakaka.. oopsie... cramped ya??

i reali have no choice but to do this else i will never be able to be on track again.. and the blog might live itz course just like dat.. hee.. anyway, a very very fast run thru based on the poorest memory u can find on earth: mine! la la la.. (pssst.. means i can get away with writing little too lor..)

finally got to "kill" some fish on 18th may @ sakuraya fish market.. *slurp* on the freshness! my fav tuna & sea urchin.. still drooling as i type this.. i m gonna book a table now!

had a little gathering with carol (she's back & back! in SG then BJ again liao lor.. ha!), alice, jas, weiyi & janine.. however, as u can see.. i was too lazy to whip out my hp/cam to take any pics.. but i couldnt resist snapping away at this sweet couple!! awww... such innocence..

and of course we had more good food along the way with the lovely company of our beautiful family!
missy hamming it up for the cam! with our darling in our lives.. my 婆婆！！！

oooohh.. missy's masterpieces! make a guess wat she said the 1st pic was??

u wun ever guess it right la.. itz a "butterfly"! wkakakaka 2nd pic is dinosaur & 3rd is angry wee-wee..

then daddy & mummy actually went crazy on 3rd june! y? cos we took the MRT.. all 3 of us!! siao..... but it was fun! we are no elite family but i have a super duper bad habit. which is either to hop into a cab or drive. so MRT has been kept out of mind for a very long time.. haha.. well, i guess we can go crazy more often considering how much missy enjoys! (ooh.. and mummy enjoyed too.. cos i bought clothes clothes & clothes!! hiaks)

missy @ j.co hving yogurt.. the following is quoted word for word from wee wee after an unpleasant brain-freeze she experienced.

"papa.. eat slow slow. or else EYEBROW PAIN PAIN!!"
such a sweet girl to caution daddy hor? hahaha!

and more recently on the 16th june, dear took leave to spend some time with me & the 2 baobeis before i start work again (sob sob..).. meetup with oct07 mummies at the airport!

last but not least, my latest pics of my cutie baobei! the one who is now 11 weeks old.. weighing at 7kg and "towering" at 63.5cm (yep.. he's the size of missy @ 5mths old).. hurhurhur!

b4 i sign off , i just wana let this out.. I MISS MY BABIES VERY VERY VERY MUCH!!! cos i m back at work already.. having spent the past 11 weeks with them on a daily basis is reali so precious and priceless! i like the way missy's eyes brighten up & sparkle every morning she sees me.. and i like to bully didi when he's not kicking up a fuss by smelling him like my 'chou chou' and nibbling on his cutie baby-fat arms.. but but but, now that i m back at work, i can't do this so often already.. sob sob sob... i will gambate! will make sure dear buys the toto on a regular basis and pray super hard dat we strike it big! LOL..

1st MTP session...... =P

Meet The Parents session on 27th May 2010...

haha! funny how the schools do it nowadays. but i certainly dun mind cos i can get an update on adri's performance in school and i can't wait to hear them! met Ms Quek (her form teacher) for the session and her feedback on adri: she doesnt like 2 sing when in a grp! yet she'll sing when on her own.. i m surprised! cos she sings everywhr she goes at hm! i m sure this has got to do with the fact that she is damn atas.. hahaha... unless, she doesn't sing cos she knows she is "lao hong"?? oops!!!
otherwise, she is doing pretty well n likes 2 do art n craft on her own (she forces us 2 do for her at hm! argh..). she is better in english though she cn converse in both languages separately 2 both her eng n chinese teachers.. her classmates like her alot (phew!) n she is getting mre independent.. and she DOES eat.. albeit a little but itz improving due to peer pressure i'd guess. and apparently she knows her classmates' names n yet dun tell us when we ask! ok.. nw's e freaky part - thr ISN'T any 'benjamin' in her class!?! hmm... i just have to think he's her make-believe friend ba??

her "performance" portfolio

some of her activity sheets.. i like it alot! though i know itz mainly scribbling and lotsa doodling out of the box/shape, i dun mind! cos this is exactly how it should be for toddlers her age. i always try my best NOT to dictate what she is drawing and ask her instead. "what are u drawing baby?" and mostly she will tell me itz something that the picture totally DO NOT resemble. but i believe in encouraging her cos that's how the kid's mind works! she sees things totally different from us cos she is young and CREATIVE and is yet to be tainted with what the adult world will term as "perfect". so even if she is messy in her artwork, i m HAPPY. this only means that my baby is still a young and innocent darling of mine.. hee..

i am very very happy with the attentiveness of the teachers! very impressed too.. cos i was pregnant when she started school, Ms Quek was actually very nice to have thought of bringing a baby toy to school for the kids of her class to be involved in. She even called her "Adrienne/ Xing Yi jie jie" and kept talking to her about "DIDI" way b4 i popped.. so that adri can get used to that term and also be open-minded towards didi.. i m so glad for this extra help cos it definitely did prepare her!

hmm.. here comes the part i totally dun understand. and i think i have to declare "war" on her chinese teacher. i am not a perfectionist nor a kiasu parent but i believe in fairness. check out her "dependent" results for all her Chinese activities. i can totally understand if you have marked some to be "need support" but all of them are marked "dependent"!! hmm.. hello... adri is no chinese helicopter but she can speak and can certainly recite and follow simple instructions! i really feel like asking her chinese teacher if she is simply too lazy to even think before she "tick" the boxes..

well, i m pretty happy with adri's progress in school... but but but.. my little baby is growing up so fast! i wouldnt have minded if she relied abit longer on me.... hiaks.. (though i know i will complain abt her being sticky then.. hahahaha!)

my lil' muscle boy...

went MIA again as i simply lacked the time to upload any pics and the blog.. oops! not dat i m very busy but hmm... anyways, ayden is turning 2 months old in 2 days time!! and i simply can't reali register the fact.. cos he looks so much like a big boy to me.. doesn't help dat his MUSCLES are getting bigger by the day.. he's also much longer and heavier compared to adri.. he's the size of adri when she's 3 mths old.. hahaha!

ayden is still a little sleepyhead.. and he wakes up grouchy for milk.. hmm...

my sweetie looking just like his sister when asleep!
