Action Adventure

Chanced upon Action Adventure at United Square, Tiffy said she don mind giving it a try. Asked her if she was afraid, she said no. So, Tiffany was registered and eagerly waiting for her turn amongst the gor gors. She was very excited cos she can get to do rock climb and flying fox.
They were brought through some 'workshops', this is the warming up workshop. The instructor taught them that they had to do some warm ups before exercising.

The children were being briefed about safety tips and were showed items generally found in a first aid kit box.


Tiffany waiting patiently for her turn , after almost 1.5hours.

Finally, its her try on rock wall climbing. Tiffy din managed to reach the top the first time. But when we came back the next day, she did it!
Climbing her way up on rope net.

Managed to take a video of her doing the rope net thingy. ;)

Tip Toe Treatment (2)

Little Nat went back for review on 1st Sep. The doc reported that her legs are making some progress...the tendons are not as tight as the first visit. But she has to be casted for another 3 weeks, doc mentioned about going for physio therapy after this 2nd casting has been removed. Looking forward to the removal of cast on 22nd Sep.

For now, she still cruise and crawl in her cast as per normal...and getting naughtier. She can get angry when her sister sat together on my lap, she can push and pull her sister's hair when she is angry. :P

A day out at Sentosa

As part of celebrating her 5th birthday, we brought the girls (Tiffany and Melody) out to Sentosa. Nat Nat? We left her at home lo...we only have an afternoon before eddady had to rush back for meeting at night.
Having made sure that Melody qualifies to take luge ride, I had checked her height at home to ensure that she meets the minimum height of 85cm. We went for 2 luge rides and 2 sky rides.
Enjoying the sky rides...

Preparing to luge...

Next, after the luge, we took the light rail to Universal Studios. Erh, we just walked outside not in the Universal Studios.
At the monorail station...

Outside Universal Studios


we wandered into Hershey's chocolate world...
we customised a super big coin bank for Tiffy, with her picture sticker printed on the coin bank... I bought a Princess ice cream cake from Swensens for Tiffy...sweet isnt it... ;) Yee Yee and Ah Shan came by at night to celebrate with Tiffy before the clock strikes midnight.

see her radiant face... :)

My surprise birthday...being part 3

Both dear sis and hb gave me surprises on the same day we celebrated Tiffy's birthday. I was showered with pressies and cakes. I must confessed that i was super touched by the gesture...thank you everyone...
A super huge mahjong cake!

Here is Tiffy being the big sister helping with the candles and all

With our aunties witnessing the little ceremony...hee i get to receive ang paos from them too! :p Btw, there were so muck cakes at the end of the day that we had them for breakfast for many many days haha..and before the clock struck 12am on 29 aug, we had another birthday ceremony with my darling girls singing for me.

Happy 5th Birthday, Tiffany (Part 2)

After cake cutting and blew out the candles, the birthday girl dutifully posed for her picture to be taken.

She then said 'come, my friends, take picture!'
Then her family....

Happy 5th Birthday, Tiffany (Part 1)

We had a small birthday celebration for Tiffany on 29th Aug 2010. (That is mine birthday too!) She has turned 5! Time flies man, she is gg to be in K2 next year and next year we have to enrol her for Primary 1!

I had a super busy morning, was busy decorating the house with mickey mouse themed stuff..while eddaddy went to hunt for the florist to help pump the balloons with helium. While decorating, was busy making sure that the maid prepares the dish-aiyo just 1 dish this time, the rest of food was catered and had to make sure the kids get their breakfast and get dressed for the occasion before guest arrived.
The birthday girl! She insisted on wearing the outgrown tutu skirt...haha..a bit short though but still wearable

The buffet spread...catered from Flavours and Spices, peranakan dishes..very nice..especially the nonya otah and kueh patih...

The minnie mouse jelly-very cute and delicious, not too sweet too..it is a whopping 2.6Kgs as big as a A4 paper. But the family finished it off despite having lots of other food. The Mickey Mouse themed cake...a 1-tiered chocolate hazelnut cake from Pine Gardens..yummy as usual...

Busy August

This month of Aug was a period of highs and low...

Highs cos of birthday celebrations, eXplorer Kids, Tiffy celebrating Nday at School, National Day Celebrations at Heartlands, National Day Dinner, Opening of YOG rehearsal, baking class for parent and kid, clubbing/karaoke/movie with hb as part of my birthday celebrations and watching a musical-Fried Rice Paradise with mum and hb....

Low was Nat's diagnosis and her visits to PD and orthopedic.....tramatising for me at least....

Tip Toe Treatment

Natalie was diagnosed with tight archilles tendon on 3 Aug 2010, she is not able to flex her ankle fully 90degree, resulting that she has to tip toe even when standing. :(
I have been devastated when i first heard the news. I know that i have not been paying much attention to her, have been 'throwing' her in the walker for more than neccessary....had it not been our auntie who alerted us to this problem, I would probably not notice anything wrong with that and delayed treatment.....It has been nearly a month since the diagnosis...and the terrible guilt still lingers.


She is now 3 weeks into the treatment (1st serial casting started on 13 Aug 2010), we just pray that tmr's review will bring good news, that she will get well very very soon.


Little Nat Nat lives her life normally, still crawling, still cruising around, even attempting to stand leaning against the wall. And still as naughty as ever, snatching toys from her sisters, 'scolding' ppl, tapping on our face or wherever to get our attention, commanding that we do this and that for her.

Happy 1st Birthday to Natalie (Part 1)

We had a mini birthday celebration for our darling princess, Natalie. She has turned 1!
The house was decorated with Hello Kitty themed party stuff.
We put up a big Happy 1st Birthday banner up as a backdrop, decorated with balloons.

Bought some Hello Kitty balloons filled with helium to be given to the children :)
And a bouquet of Hello Kitty balloons for our birthday girl.
Po Po dropped by early to help with the cooking..she helped mummy to fry a wok of delicious mushroom rice, fishballs (which were a hit with the girls and gone before we even realise) and mixed vegetables (served in the big claypot), and we also ordered some other dishes like Sushi party set, 933 curry chicken, 933 ginseng salted chicken to complete the mini buffet spread.

A very pretty Hello Kitty themed birthday cake ordered from Pine Gardens!
and here is our little birthday princess :)
