Thomas & Friends Show @ Marina Square

After a last minute decision, daddy decided to go Marina Square for the meet the thomas & Friends show.

We missed the 1pm show, so waiting for the next show at 4pm... Hahaha being a KS parent, we started queuing at 2.30pm at Q#2 to be the 1st 40 customers whom can take pictures with Thomas in person.

While waiting for the actual shows, the Emcee had a round of Q&As, so when she asked who is the biggest engine. Baobei went up the stage without stage fright, and answer the question correctly. = Gordon... We are just so proud of her, standing on the stage, with so many audiences watching her.

Anyway, it is also the "motivator"... she saw the 1st 2 children also ard the same age, answering the questions correctly and given the Yanyan biscuit. Daddy told her, if u want the biscuit, u have to go up the stage and answer the question..

Baobei's School Outings- June09

Is the June School Holiday, the school doesn't have any lessons, and has lined up a few excursions. From, Sentosa, Macdonalds, Jacob Ballas Garden, Qianhu fish farm, Movie, and last with the Family Day.

Rather then keeping her in school all day, we have decided and signed her up for all 6 outings thru out the month... And she really enjoys every single outings...

Our 1st ride - Circle Line

After the opening of the 1st 4 stations of Circle line on 28 May 09, so decided to go for a train ride. Furthermore, mummy isn't working now, and Popo need to go class. No one is babysitting meimei..

So, mummy took the 2 girls for a new train ride after fetching Baobei from school. See how enjoying is baobei..


  

Thoughts.....

Wonder is it time for a #2?? For the past 3 yrs, when many people asked me when am i having the 2nd child.. my answer to them is "No Hurry, let me enjoy 1st'.

Now when people asked me the same question, my reply is "i want doesn't mean i can have it".. I really begin to think am i ready to have #2?? Nobody knows... For the past few months, i have been very contracdicting.. Before menses, i'm thinking pls come.. When menses cme, i'm thinking sigh.. wh comee..

2 more months, baobei is turning 4, from the growth chart she picks up any of the skills of a preschooler faster than average. She is more independent, though attention seeking at times.. In general, she is much more well-behaved... And we are more able to talk to her...

She is able to colour well, no scribble she says.. She is able to play on her own.. She is able to write basic alphabets. Identify certain chinese word like "wo, ai, shou, kou'

Mummy cut her hair short again

 after much consideration has finally decided to cut off my hair ends...

Considering the fact that, my hair has totally damaged after the last rebond & coloured last Oct'08. Also the weather has been very bad lately...

Making rounds & rounds, tried many hair stylists and hair products for the last 4yrs and have finally gone back to my previous stylist, Jimmy from SohHair... Since they salon has shifted from Parco Bugis to Central I have not patronising at all, also with the wrong mindset that there MIGHT have someone out there whom is my ideal stylist???

Anyway.. Jimmy gave me a nice hair cut at the back, with a certain length on the side to cover the broad faceshape... Durng our conversation, then i realise that I have known him for 10yrs!!!.. came to know him when i used to work in Seiyu... time really flies...

Is this nice??? Daddy said from front it doesn't make any difference haha..

 

Daddy is back from Taipei

Yeah, daddy is coming back today.... Also we have broke our record, 14hours away from home.

Today is a gai gai day with Aunty Aileen & Lucas didi before going airport to fetch daddy at night. Supposingly we wanted to take a train from SK MRT to town, who knows Uncle Eron offered to send us thr. Know what, he is driving a modified Subaru, and at the junction outside our house, before we can see his car, we can hear his exhaust sound... is really noisy...

Well, ok since he has offered us the trip, he tried to detour a little of his journey to avoid Traffic Police due to his car modification. But who knows, the more you avoid, the more you will meet. And indeed he was stopped by a LTA Police at the junction along Kallang Road towards ICA. We dropped off at ICA to take train down to town.. <<Haha, this is to tell you don't mod your car till you can't drive>>

We have reached Town, and this was our trip itinerary
> Lunch @ Crystal Jade Kitchen in Takashimaya
> Shopping in Paragon, and mummy has bought a pair of Osh Kosh Shoes for baobei.. Traded in an old pair of shoes for $20... So in the end mummy only paid $29 for the shoes.
> Shopped in Takashimaya
> Dinner @ Jia Xiang noodle house in CP


is about 6.30pm, we thought will just make our way to the airport and have our dinner there.. who knows Jiujiu called to say he doesn't have our housekey.. he can't feed doggie.... Bobian, we changed our route, halfway the journey home, Jiujiu called to say he has found the key and we need not come home... But we were already at the midway to SK... Nvrm, we juz headed back to hometown and from thr took a cab.

Baobei really miz her daddy very much, she kept asking if daddy is reaching already.. at the arrival gate, she kept looking out for her daddy. After she spotted him at the luggage belt, she shouted "DAddy, daddy, I luv you" haha... just along the arrival, there are some fans awaiting for a HK artiste.. it seem likes baobei is a fan waiting for her idol.. so funny.

Daddy is Outstationed

Daddy is away during the period from 21 Apr - 25 Apr, this is his semi-biz trip.. should say is the 1st time he is away for so many weekdays. life is really horrible for me.. And this period, I totally has became a superb hot-tempered mummy. Day-to-day, I need to wake up early as usual, prepared all necessary. weather is really sucks these days... really really hot~!!!..

Imagine, every morning I have to walk out from my place to the nearest LRT station and that is about 8mins walk. Then take a LRT to MRT station, take the MRT train and send baobei to school, then rush to work in the City. This apply to returning home in the evening. For 4 consecutive days, by time I reached office/home i'm so exhausted.

Luckily during this period, Popo comes everyday to cook dinner for us. Help out a little on both Baobei & Doggie....

I can't forget how I became so agitated almost everynight whenever Baobei turns grouchy...she is afterall a 4YO girl, she is also trying very hard to well behave during this period as DAddy has promised her that if she behaves he will get her a new batch of fishes.

On the last nite, it was the most terrible.. Popo didn't come.. Thought since is already weekend, will bring baobei for a dinner @ CP Sakae Sushi after fetching her from school. And this turns out to be the night I shouted on her at the taxi stand in the public... and as a result I broke down into tears... It really pains me to have scolded her for a small little thing, and I apologised to her after the incident. Know what? Baobei actually asked me, "Mummy why are u crying?? And I luv you mummy.." Can you imagine how this has melted my heart???

All this while, we have been changing different batches of fishes and finally have 2 goldfishes and 1 small breed of those tropical fish which have been the survivals throughout the months. Till 1 day, when baobei told daddy that she doesn't has enough fish. And daddy told her, he will help to add on to the aquarium family.

Things got bad, 2 days later after daddy's comment, 1 of the goldfishes died. subsequently another 2 days, the other goldfish also died... Baobei got very upset, and we told her if she behaves well we will bring her out to buy new fishes later.. And she really behaves. She sleeps, eats her dinner. no grouchiness.

In order to keep promise, right after we had our dinner, we took her to Fernvale aquarium shop. So sad, the shop isn't opened. And how??? We called Jiujiu's helpline. Asked him to bring us to the one of the nearest shop in Hougang. And there we bought this batch of Mickey Mouse Fishes... Why are they call Mickey mouse?? All the tails have this Mickey mouse "logo" imprint.. haha.. cute right? Jiujiu said he pays for the fishes, $3.60 for 6 of them

After we came home with the fishes, Baobei freed them into the tank. See her contented face.

Well.. this doesn't last... days after days, the fishes died 1-by-1. By the 6th day, all the fishes are gone. This is due to the higher chlorine level of water in Fernvale. Also the "disease" passed on by the older batch of fishes..

AS recommended by the aquarium shop owner in Fernvale, we need to "Sterilise" the whole tank before getting new fishes...

Baobei's bad experience on BOUNCER

The weather is really  a killer.. It is so hot.. Today, we are going to attend 1st birthday party @ Tiong Bahru..

This is the new outfit for baobei which mummy has ordered online.  Is it nice????

 

Aunty Jouise has rented this bouncer from myjollytown, upon arriving at the venue. Baobei is very skeptical to get in to the bouncer as there are too many children inside. After a 2hrs of "observing" she decided to get in for a try. Just during the 1st 3mins, something terrible happened. One of the big kids accidentally tripped over the "air pump" and the whole bouncer collapse. Scared off little baobei as she is stil inside. She kept crying for mummy and daddy to save her out.

She cried and said she will not want to get in to any bouncer anymore.. So in order to distract her, we brought her to the playground outside the area. And there she gets to enjoy herself.

Daddy says "Bye Bye to Contact Lens"

After a long 3hrs wait of Pre-consultation & eye evaluation test. Daddy finally gets his Lasik Eye surgery today morning at 10am. No doubt he has said that he can just go by himself, and we wait for him at home.. but well just can't reassure myself that he can "see" right after the surgery.

While waiting for daddy, baobei & i went to shop around Paragon during the 2hrs wait, brought baobei to toy r us as she has gotten her 2nd set of 10 stars for good behaviour. Then we went for our brunch @ Delifrance...

Ard 12.15pm, we went back to the clinic... then the recept helps to bring daddy out from the room. Poor thing, when we see him, he is wearing an eye goggle. And tears on his right eyes kept falling.. Luckily I have forewarn baobei on hw daddy will look like when he comes out..

Now, daddy has popped sleeping pills and need to rest at least for the first 6hrs...
