This is the way I brush my teeth....

Ever since Jamie turned 2, I feel that we should "upgrade" her from brushing her teeth in the kitchen to the "rightful" place , ie the bathroom/toilet. After searching for months for a suitable mirror, I finally found one at IMM, Giant. Cheap and reliable, 3M, for less than two bucks!! :D

Elmo on Potty

A fren got this gadget for me, hoping that soon Jamie will be like her son, able to pee in the potty. Well, let's see how but for the meanwhile, she's enjoying feeding Elmo (Elmo will ask for a drink and when he is being put on his potty, Elmo will hum his fav song and cheer when he is able to pee into the potty) and helping him to the potty.

Mid Autumn Festival with Cell Group

HC decided not to have our usual 2hrs+ cell meeting tonight but to celebrate the festival at the park downstairs (as usual la..).

I din really have the chance to mingle around with the ladies as Jamie was "addicted" to the slide at the nearby playground. Weather was good and oh yes, the mooncakes of course!!

Chinese Garden ~ Lantern Safari

This is my 2nd trip here after last week with Ron family and mil as it rained shortly after a 40mins walk. This round we managed to walk for almost an hour and half before ending our night. Ang guess who we bumped into ? Merv, Jane, their kids and Merv's mum !! What a surprised!

Kiddy Palace 30% Storewide

A friend has just informed me that Kiddy Palace at Jurong Point is currently having its storewide pre-renovation sales! All items except Nett and Fixed Price, are going for less 30% discount !! So off I went early this morning with Jamie :D For those mums who are looking for Sesame Street, Barney, Fisher Price toys etc for their kids, hurry now cos the store looks more empty this morning.

While I managed to get a handheld, travel sized Doodle Pro magnetic board for Jamie, I'm also very glad that I managed to get a 100% UV protection sunglasses for her at less than $10! She just looks so cool in the pinky sunglass! Perhaps I should go back again these few days to see if there's anything else that I may have missed out....

Jurong Lake Park

We tagged along with Ron's kids and WJ to have breakfast at Macdonald's after which we proceeded to the new Taman Jurong Lake Park near our house. It was a huge recreational park where one can find an enormous children's playground as well as jogging tracks along the park.

Reading is Fun

Realised that Jamie has slowly grown to love to read books. Tonight she's picking up a new set of Chinese book to read. I'm not sure if this will be her lifelong hobby or not but for now, I will try my best to read with her whenever I can.

Lantern Safari

Being generous, as always, Sil WJ bought some discounted tickets* from her coy so that we can enjoy a night out activity. Together with Mil, Bil & his family, we walked to Chinese Garden for about half an hour before reaching our destination.

CQ was having a wedding shoot tonight hence he couldn't join us on time (anyway it started to drizzle and so we left shortly after about 40mins at the Chinese Garden).

We will be revisiting again the next round. This time, only 3 of us.

* Normal Rates : $9 per adult during Mon-Thurs. $13 per adult from Fri-Sun. Children above 3, $5 per entry

Contractor

The HDB appointed contractor supposed to come at 10am to get our windows retrofitted but we are still waiting and its approaching noon.

I hate contractors. They mess up your house and worst of all, after hours of repair works, we are left to clean up the mess. Finally they are here !!!

Stepping into 6 mois

CQ took such similar photo of my curvy tummy when I was expecting Jamie some 2years ago. So we thought we should also take another one. It was kind of strange feeling when taking this picture, can't explain why but I guess I'm more "prepared" this time round for my 2nd pregnancy. Of course I'm not as excited as before though I'm expecting a son this time round.

Family Time Out

Early this week, I felt a strong urge to bring Jamie to the beach with CQ this Sunday morning (which is today!) . Thank God for the "not-so-hot" weather when we reached Sentosa almost around 10am. Both of us had our homemade sandwiches and Milo at the beach before we spent some time digging and building sand castles with Jamie. I noticed that Jamie was rather silent when she initially came in contact with the sand which I believed she probably hasn't "warm up" yet. Then when she was brought to the sea, she was quite hesitant to stay in the water. This experience was so different when she was at the swimming pool. She enjoyed much more at the pool, in liberty I mean....

Though we merely spent an hour or slightly more at the beach, it was great just spending some time as a family, enjoying each other company.

Superstar

IF only I know the results earlier, if only (then I won't be wasting my time away every Wed & Thurs night) ... though in my heart, I truly hope that Kelly would be given the Superstar title, but the fact is, I also knew that Kelvin will be the ultimate winner the moments Jun Yang lost. Don't ask me why.... its a matter of fact.

Who has the strongest voice control? Who has the better headvoice ?? Who can entertain the audience with her glamorous outfit and hairdo ? Who is more consistant in her performances over the months?

** Btw, I am not a supporter of any of the Superstars. **

Our Baseball Darling

Jamie loves to wear her papa's hat the unusual way. Oh boy! She's so cool!! That's set me wonder if her little brother will look like her ??

____________________________________________

Now that I'm back blogging, suddenly I realised that I have lotsa things to share here... of course and some ultrasound scans photos of our baby too! Well, CQ also took some artistic pixs of my preggy tummy :D

Potty Trained

I believe one of the most tedious stuff to train our kids probably will be this.. Seriously speaking Jamie, by now, is capable to tell me prior passing urine or motion. However she's simply refused the potty no matter what. And worst of all, she will say "no" & "don't want" whenever I encourages her to use the potty. Sigh!! So, my sil gave me this potty, hopefully, to make her potty training a success. However it only managed to keep Jamie seated on it for a while.

The Wedding Shoot

Saw KH's putting up some fantastic shots (dated 31 Aug) they took for CQ's younger sister, Katy, wedding shoot last weekend. With both CQ & KH's artistic shoots, I'm sure that the photos will turn out supremely wonderful unless their equipments playing tricks on them.... I'm looking forward to see all the printouts !!

** The event took place on 27 Aug**

Yea !! It's back!!!

My laptop's HDD has somewhat crashed which left me utterly disturbed and displeased as ALL my data stored lately has totally wiped out !!! :((

The good thing is, YEA I can finally blog!!!

Baby Progress

Today I'm 23rd weeks into my pregnancy and found out that our dear son's on 40th percentile in relation to his weight. This would means that he will be slightly lightly than Jamie !! Arrgghhh!!!

Perhaps this probably due to the fact that I have not been eating well during my 1st trimester and even till now, my eating habit has not yet establish, healthily I mean. Well, as of today onwards, I will have to ensure that I drink 3 glass of milk and at least an egg daily. Gynae said the estimated birth weight will be around 3kg if I do not pump up my dairy products intake. Jamie was 3.11kg then..

We shall see.....

End of the World....

My laptop finally decided to take its long-life leave away from me. This also means so much of inconvenience and irregular blogging and surfing the internet for me. :((

Butterfly

As usual, first thing in the morning, just before Jamie finish brushing her teeh, she requested me to carry her to see the caterpillar.

Without looking at it, I carried Jamie to the washing machine where the caterpillar was kept inside a microwave container.

"Arrrggghh" was my immediate screamed after seeing the huge butterfly instead of the green leafy "curry puff" !!

I was so SHOCKED and was quite fearful to release the butterfly out of the container. Having saying that, I also realised that one of the butterfly's wing seems "deformed" and it was kind of struggling to fly.

Without much delay, after Jamie had her milk feed, I quickly went over to my in-laws house and asked my fil release the butterfly out at one of the plant outside the lift corridor.

Away from home

CQ has gone away for a video shoot this afternoon to KL. Initially I was against him of travelling away due to the haze condition there. However I have not much say in it since its a corporate event that he is doing and the client has not cancel the event since then. Hope that the condition will be under control at least during his stay there.

He will be home latest by Wed. We miss you, papa...
