YeeYee's Birthday Part II

The girls and mummy had plans to treat Yee Yee Ben & Jerry ice cream for her birthday, and who knows, we ended up at Sentosa! Sushan and Yee wanted Megazip and i tot can let the girls try Luge.

Tiffany passed the minimum height requirement, but Melody is short by 4cm!! Melody couldnt luge away...nvm next time. So we took turns to luge and Tiffany enjoyed the rides very much. Surprising, she didnt freaked out by the speed of luge and height of the skyride! heehee.


As for Melody, she was on location photo shoot while waiting for us.

At one point, she kept asking me "me ley, me ley?" So sweet, i had to explained many times that she is not old enough to try the ride.Next, we went to try the newly opened Megazip-Flying Fox. MegaZip Adventure Park is Singapore’s first adventure park with one of the longest and steepest zip wires in Asia, a 12- metre high ropes course, a free-fall parachute simulator or descender and a challenging climbing wall. We had to walked a long way from Imbiah lookout to the hilltop jungle lo..3 cheers to Sushan who managed to carry Tiffany all the way up to the hilltop!
MegaZip is a spectacular flying fox ride over 450 metres long. Starting 72 metres above the sea in a tree-top tower on Mount Imbiah, they will fly over the jungle canopy, high above the hip and happening Siloso Beach and then glide across the sea to a gentle landing on a small island. The girls were all geared up in their harness ready to try their maiden flight including Tiffany!

But while waiting for their turn, long wait due to students and tourists.... the sky grew dark and gloomy and it rained! sheesh...

But again this year the show was sold out in Sept, luckily, received a tip off that a new show was added on Dec 12 2.15pm and i had quickly called Sistic to book the tickets before all sold out again.

New Hobby

The girls have a new hobby recently, that is to feed the gold fishes in the water feature outside the temple nearby! So the good life gold fishes have good food to eat everyday le :P Oh is this consider a good deed too? hmm..

NAC - Exxon Mobile Concert in the Park

We went to Pasir Park for a free story telling event inside a giant inflatable nylon multi-coloured fish! Yes! A gargantuan 15-meter fish that came to Singapore! We were all gathered inside its belly for some cozy and unusual storytelling!

picture taken from outside the big fish...

Melody posing with the big fish...

And it happened to be an arts performance concert in the park sponsored by Exxon Mobile, and the story telling in bug fish is part of the event. There were various arts performances including a play and a ballet performance. :)

And we made badges for Tiffany and Melody...Tiffany wrote her own name on the badge...

Melody was screaming to be carried...Natalie lei? She was sleeping behind Melody on our newly acquired tandem stroller lor...

Little Performance

We had a chance to see Tiffany and her class mates performing during school's assembly. All the children are so cute haha esp my Tiffy of cos! :P

My 3 naughty girls

Gong Gong's Birthday

Celebrated Gong Gong's 61st birthday with a cake, birthday song and lotsa of birthday wishes.

Great-Grandmother

The children's great-grandmother which is eddaddy's grandmother passed away so quickly on Wednesday.

Less than 2 months back, Ye Ye sent her to CGH cos of diarhear and poor digestion. Somehow after many checks and tests, the doctor diagnosed her to have ca and at the last stage! Weird how come it could go undetected for so long. It seemed that when a doctor couldnt pin point what was the problem, they would just say its 'ca'. Doctor had said '6months', if ops then would be longer, however, Great-Grandmother had chosen not to have any operation done.

She was then moved to a nursing home (Orange Valley) for about a month or was it only less than a month. Eddaddy, Tiffany and I went to visit her once in the nursing home, she was so frail that she has difficulty swallowing water and couldnt sit up properly. Daily updates from Nai Nai, and we concluded that she gets weaker by the day. Then suddenly, we heard that she couldnt eat and was warded back at CGH last Friday. Weird hour calls dont bear good news cos Nai Nai received a call in the wee hours on Wednesday. And she was gone in the morning...just like that...

The funeral's being held at Blk 114 Geylang (Ye Ye's house) and the wake will be on Sunday, 11 Oct, 8am.

Melody in school-u

I found melody in her jie jie's school uniform! So adorable!

Longkang Fishing Part II

I think Melody was trying her newly acquired roaring technique on the tiger fish.

Longkang Fishing

It was a fine Friday afternoon, and eddaddy was on leave! Yippee! We went on an outing in lieu of celebrating Children's Day haha. We decided to go to Qian Hu Fish Farm to do some longkang fishing. So we asked nai nai and our previous maid Gina to tag along, I think we needed any extra hands to help anytime anywhere heehee..and so we travelled, and it really felt like going for an excursion cos the car was full housed and was filled with chatters all the way to Sungei Tengah(?).

admiring the breeds of fishes in the farm...

fish feeding...so many hungry kois...

tortoise feeding...so many hungry tortoise...

here comes the actual longkang fishing..here was Tiffy having a go at it. Wah..not as easy as it seemed lo becos i saw a boy with a tankful of fishes, aiyah we sure can make it!

Melody helping to shoo the fishes to her sis's direction.

Melody posed for some pictures and behind the scene, we saw that eddaddy has taken over the job from Tiffany. Hmm..we could see him frantically trying to catch the fishes in many many big swapping movements hoping to catch as many as he could with the net! haha!! Not as easy as i thought it would be, all in all we still managed to catch 5 fishes (only)! Hmm on second thoughts, i tink the net was too small else we could have caught more keke. When we checked out, to our surprise, the operator gave us more fishes to bring home with..bringing more smiles to Tiffany's face.

Crocs Madness

I wondered why i have the sudden liking for Crocs shoes haha. Ended up whole family (including po po and kong kong) each have at least a pair, some bought from the Crocs outlet sales at T3.

Tiffy eagerly posing with the lot of crocs shoes..and she even lay out the 2 older pairs in fuchsia for photo taking! She loved her new purple Hello Kitty Cayman that she has been waiting for for almost a month.

Happy Birthday Tiffany on Playhouse Disney Birthday Book!

Tiffany's photo was selected for the Playhouse Disney Birthday Book for her birthday month September! We are all so excited that we tuned in to the programme everyday! Tiffany's picture doesnt appear on every time slots every day though..but at least we caught the clip twice already! :) tata

feelings

Almost 3 weeks had passed since my confinement period..
I already had my dose (or doses? hee cant remember) of mahjong right after confinement..i think i might need some more therapatic mahjong sessions again soon...anyone?

Sometimes i get very easily upset about little things, sometimes i felt that my blood pressure shoooting up all becos of the 2 elder kids. They can actually quarrel over things, anything. I know children do quarrel but Melody wor..she is just 18mths. Tiffy would not share her stuff, and Melody would push or punch her sister and as a result shoutings and fightings do occur on many occasions. When Tiffy shouted, Melody erh shouted back with her baby words! Sometimes i dunno whether to get angry but the scene was very ridiculous that it could made my heart melt.

Natalie is now coming to 7 weeks. She is able to lift up her head on tummy and she could turn her head side to side when i left her to sleep on her tummy. And she smiled at me when i talked to her yesterday! Really smiled, she looked at me and gave me a smile haha how it brightened up my day. I had been busy 'feeding' her, since her latch dont seemed effective, the many sessions of pumping and bottle feeding made my day very occupied.

Melody is as always the cheerful one in the family, she really makes me laugh with all her impossible antics. She can route count to 10 already and i am so proud of her. Recalled the other night, while i was trying to get Tiffy to sleep I was reminding her to close her eyes and get to sleep, guessed what it was Melody who suddenly sat up and answered 'huh'! ahaha so funny. She would demand that i sing songs such as head and shoulder, twinkle twinkle little star, wind the bobbin up and i love you songs for her before her sleep! She would say 'NOOOO' if i sang the wrong song haha.

As for Tiffany, she is the da jie but sometimes behaved like her younger sister. I think i heard so much whines and shouts from her in the one month than her 4 years! *faintz* But she has actually grown up quite a bit, I always hear people telling me that she talks like a 小大人. Yesterday, she told me that she preferred me to work! Why i asked her, and she told me then i wont scold her so much! haha.

Splashing good time

We went to Vivo City on Monday evening after visiting daddy's malay friend.

Well..i must say it was a BIG challenge to bring all 3 babies out at one go. Morning was a frenzy trying to get all ready and dressed up> It was lunch time when all had taken their breakfast, bathed and dressed up. And time to feed little Natalie again..and the cycle seemed to repeat all over again..so 'die die' must get out of house, so we didnt had our small lunch bite as planned. And went to daddy's friend's house for small bites instead.

We reached Vivo at about 4pm, by then I was very tired and thirsty. I think i needed a lot of water these days, kept feeling thirsty haha..so after trying on some crocs shoes, we had to break (so soon hor) for small bites and drinks. By then, 2 babies had fell asleep and Tiffy screamed for milk but I din expect her to ask for milk so we had left the milk bottles and stuff in the car ;p. So i proposed ice cream to get her mind off milk erh temporarily heehee. Daddy wanted to go back liao! and it was only 5plus lor! But i wanted to window shop one round first, half a round later, we spotted the 'water park' where we 'parked' ourselves for diaper change and booster drinks again....my babies were all awake. After playing for a while, we went back to po po's house for dinner, there ended my attempt for window shopping..

No pictures of Melody cos she refused to stepped into the water, no matter how much we coaxed haha..

Little Seedlings

Our little project..tat is to grow a pot of chilli padi. One of the pots (planted by Tiffany) showed little leaves spotted after one week. =) *picture taken by Tiffany*
