Happy Father's Day

Papa we love you! Jamie did this card almost all by herself except I helped to cut the paper, traced the star together & drew the heart shape.

Busy Week

Invitation To Participate In the Research Study : A Study on Refractive Error, Amblyopia and Strabismus in Singapore Preschoolers.

Just when I'm thinking of bringing Jamie for her 1st eyes screening at a polyclinic, I received a letter in our mailbox, Invitation to free eye check for Singapore Chinese Children Age 6Mths - 6yrs. Wow, So that means, Jeremy will get his 1st free eyes screened too!! The best part is, after the screening and interviews, I will receive a total of $40 !! Hurray!

Many tests were carried out before the results are out. And the biggest problem the kids have to face is, dripping eye drops !! Jamie's worst. She wailed, struggled, rubbed eyes, doing all sort of things to protest! And so her results were not 100% accurate while Jeremy managed to complete all the 4 types of eye drops though he was a little unhappy. The results? Both have refractive error, but do not need spectacles. A bit 闪光 (within the range of 50) but the person told me its very common and normal as so far, very few kids have 100% normal sighted. At the end of the day's eye examination, Jamie & Jeremy do not have Amblyopia and/or Strabismus. Phew! Thank God!!

Day 03 (Friday)

Actually we had the most fun at the beach on our last day.. CQ brought the kids near to the wave and sat there with each of them. Of course it was fun while watching the wave hitting against their tiny body, enjoying the magnificent view of the South China Sea! Too bad din snap any shots for all of us were all wet & covered wif sand Then we immediately proceeded to the Petit Club swimming pool for a dip. Halfway through our swim, it started to pour so heavily that we were all stucked in the pool for quite some time. Thank God for the trip!

Day 02 (Thursday)

Been quite busy over this week as I try to make an effort to plan some programmes for the children since its school holiday. Managed to upload our 2nd day's pixs. Enjoy...

DAY 01 (Wednesday) Clubmed Bintan Ria

We took alot of photos and videoclips during the trip. Here it is.

Almost Forgotten........

I was happily having my late lunch outside with Jamie after our library visit when KKH called to my mobile... Apparently I have signed Jeremy up for the Best Breastfed Baby Contest and this morning supposed to go for the preliminary round at 9am! Oh Gosh!! Luckily, she told us to report to KKH around 345pm after the last contestant. Phew! What's about it? Well, it all happened in less than 5mins when the staff asked me to let Jeremy sit on my lap while she asked me few questions. I only knew the other staff was sort of playing with him. So, how ah? Don't know woh... let's see if he gets into the semi final or not.... shd recd the letter w/i the next 2 weeks.

We are Back!

Finally back home. Hmm, how's the trip is it? Dunno how to say.... in short, its fantastic lor! I think Jamie enjoyed the most amongst our family. Will be posting up some pictures we took at Clubmed Bintan Ria after sorted everything out. Stay tune!

Hurray ! We Are Going!!!!

Yea finally can go for our long awaiting holiday trip!! Jeremy is getting much much better and I can say he has almost recovered. So I will be taking a short break from blogging liao...

Happy Birthday, Ah Po

I bought a fruit cake for mil's birthday and you guessed what? Jeremy gave us a pleasant surprise when he sang the birthday song to Ah Po for the 1st time!! Nobody teach him some more!!!

Numbers Sequence

Jamie started on proper handwriting practises (dot-to-dot, tracing, coloring etc) when she was barely 2.5yrs old. Around 2, she did many pre-writing stuff like pouring of beads/beans/water from left to right container, threading, fingers exercising like playing playdough and peeling of hard boiled eggs' shells. I am glad she started it early as her teachers commented that she is very good in fine motor skills for a 46mths kid.

Self Made Banana Muffins

Was very inspired to try out the cupcakes muffins and if its successful, I'm thinking of using this for Jamie's birthday party at her school instead of the typical birthday cake. But its doesn't seems to be that easy as our conventional oven kept giving me trouble along the way.

Cordyceps Herbal Tonic Soup

Brewed this for Jamie to consume to build up her immune system as well as for general well being purpose. Read up more from this link.

Assessment on 16th May

Brought Jamie for a free assessment supposingly to enrol her for June Holiday Programmes (v.unlikely & I just wanna know how she fair since she'll be assessed by trained teacher). The results turned out to what I expected. The teacher showed her some words (extracted from K2) and she can read most of them. So recognition of words is not a problem BUT she is a bit shy (or dunno how to answer?) & needed some prompting when teacher tried to engage in a conversation with her.

Counting Down....6 Days!!

Looking at the rate Jeremy is recuperating, I'm getting more nervous and panicky each day ends. Why? Our holiday trip to Bintan Clubmed lor! But seriously dunno if he will get well fast enuff or not? He still has fever like a roller coaster throughout the day and since Day 1, I have not been sleeping well in the wee hours. Waking up pacifying a sick and cranky baby can be such a challenge for me!

My 3rd Mighty Saver Achievement!

Jamie was awarded the Bronze badge for completing the 3rd card. And I secretly banked in $500 to get a bigger mystery gift (comprises of penci case, eraser, luggage tag & a pencil) so that I can reward her as and when she behaves well. So her 1st reward, the pencil case!!

Egg Plant Has Migrated !

The plant has grown so much that the egg shell cracked! So I moved it out to one of mil's plant. Also see the yellow cactus above? Also moved out as it has grown so big that the pot no longer can hold it.

I Did it Again

I am very proud of Jamie. She is getting better in cutting using scissors.Well done !!

Bu-Bu

This is what Jeremy will say when he sees the nebuliser. Why Bu-Bu? Well, its the sound that the machine produces lor !!! :P

Sleepless Nights

Jeremy has been coughing badly and so does his runny nose. I didn't sleep a wink over the weekends as the poor boy kept waking up ,having difficulty in breathing. Need to bring him to his PD later to suck out the mucus in his throat & nose so that he will feel better. Probably need to nebulise too.
