Reunion Dinner

My dearest dad.... hmm, I do look much slimmer ever since I'm pregnant. Pls let me put on some good weight!

Montessori Phonics

I've formally started Jeremy on the Montessori Pink Scheme (level 1, 3 letter words). As he hasn't started to write yet (still on pre-writing exercises), I won't be covering the worksheets as of now.

Preston

Ever since the end of school holiday, I've started Jamie again wif daily language, Math, IQ practise again. Now that she has graduated from Montessori phonics, I can now focus more on Grammar wif her instead. This is one of my fav book that I'm using to teach her. It's so thin yet a very comprehensive book indeed! I remembered I did this when I was in my school days too.

CNY Preparation

While the children are in school, I quickly did my last minute shopping at a nearby supermarket. Little ?? Aiya, can lah. Anyway, nowadays people dun eat like as if they haven't eat for years. Just snack, I think should be sufficient (still gotta get Bak Kwa le). Plus, we rarely have guest. Most of the time, we will go to in laws' side to "feel" the CNY mood. I am still hesitating if we should get the miniature lion dance gadget for the kids to play or not. And CQ been complaining not enough CNY ornaments to jazz up the house. Hmm, I seriously dunno where to hang those red red thingy ley.

Work for the little boy

I am in awe whenever I see how much Jeremy can accomplish by himself. Perhaps becos he's quite petite in size, we always think that he is still a baby. BUT this baby has grown and he is such a smart, vocal boy. I thank God for blessing us wif such an adorable, wonderful playmate for Jamie. Nowadays I see more of them playing happily wif each other, lesser quarrels and fights for sure. Here's some of the new assessment books Jeremy is working on. He is learning very fast, faster than Jamie when she was 3years old. I guessed this gotta do wif experience. I hope that I can do better wif #3.

#3 Updates

I am 10weeks 3 days pregnant as of today. Finally can see the visible baby and of course the heartbeat. Am very relief to see the positive updates each time we visit the gynaelogist. Will continue to pray for God's protection upon us that the foetus will grow healthily wif no birth defects, adnormalities or down syndrome etc.

Right Brain Stimulation

If you ask me if Kindergarten education is sufficient for children in Singapore ? Well, based on recent report, its definitely not enough! That's why, many parents are pushing their children, especially age 6, for pre-primary clash courses just to ensure that their children are well prepared for primary school education system. So what am I going to do wif my children?? To me, an early headstart in preschool is essential and as a parent, I would want to give my best of what I can teach them at home so that they do not end up not knowing what to do when they are 7 years old. Kiasu? No, I am definitely not one of those in the front rows. But neither am I at the back of the queue, gee.

1st Day in School

Jamie has been waiting for day to arrive ! She's so happy to go to school wif Jeremy, hand in hand. Soon I will have more freedom off these 2 kids for the next 7 months from now....

JCK Portfolio Files

This year is special. Cos I have to complete 2 sets of portfolio instead of one for Jamie. Ya, Jeremy turns to study at Jamie's school! Yea!

K1 School Holiday Work

These 2 are one of the last year school holiday work Jamie did before she handed it to her form teacher when school re-opens tomorrow. Cannot imagine that I will be double busy since Jeremy will also be given school work to complete during holidays. Who says sahm is a free tai-tai at home??

Orchard Road

This is another backlog... One of my best pixs of papa & Jamie taken on Boxing Day.

Welcome 2009!!

Another year has passed and 2009 has arrived! Many times we all take life for granted, thinking that we have lotsa time and do not do things wif a decisive mindset. Busy wif family & commitments we all have and losing focus on what's important in life. I hope that as I grow a year older, may the Lord enlarge my tent and increase my capacity to serve Him and the community. I pray that I will continue to shower this family wif a hearf of unconditional love, care, patience & understanding. Let the mercy of God be upon me!

Little Mermaid DIY Kit

So Cute!!

As I was browsing through for Jamie's and Jeremy's most recent photos so that I can do up their school's portfolio cover, I chanced upon this lil boy's baby photo.. so different from now and yes he sure has a cute look!

Boxing Day Surprise

This is our biggest family christmas present that CQ has bought for us so far. Dunno what made him wanting to get this as I forsee the kids and myself playing less come 2009. Nevertheless it's nice of him to willing to get it for everyone. Thanks papa!

Another New IQ Game

Jamie is busy figuring out how to put back the blocks. We both simply love to crack our brain wif such nerve racking brain teaser games!

Christmas Log Cake

A very good fren of mine visited us today wif this little surprise. We had a wonderful time of bonding while the husbands were busying talking about their cameras.

Merry Christmas!

We hosted a party at our new house today HOWEVER, we all had forgotten to take any snapshots ! So no photos memory to lament over since its our first party at this new place.

Walkman Phone

While many of our Christmas surprises are still under the Christmas tree, I've received my early Christmas present from CQ last night! I am very glad that despite me losing 3 HPs consecutively in a year plus, he is still willing to get a new HP this Christmas season. Thank you papa!

Certificate

Jamie received this certificate from the trainer at the end of the entire course. The trainer din leave a good impression for herself as she was late for 20mins on the 1st day and subsequent days, she was late for 5-8 mins! Not forgetting that she need to setup the overhead protector too. I spoke to her on 2nd day, wanting to find out what Jamie was taught and was shocked that she doesn't speak well wif occasional singlish in all. Nevertheless, Jamie did learnt something out from it. At least she is more conscious of her poisture, how to sit, walk & pose like a girl.
