My mummy trims my hair (30 jul 09)

I trimmed charlie's hair today at home. She looks real grumpy in the pic but the hair cut looks acceptable right ?

Let build a word! (30 jul 09)

There is a cartoon "word world" at playhouse disney channel which the kids loved. It is about a group of animal characters building things they want with alphabets. Charlie is imitating them by laying the alphabets on the floor forming words. Talking about the influence from cartoon.

5th tooth dropped (29 jul 09)

yy's 5 th tooth (top row first incisor from his right L) dropped last night. Again he shouted for me after he was sent to bed. I believed he must have been playing with his loose tooth when lying on his bed. His tooth was hanging very loosely on his gum. As there was lot of blood, yy refused to let us touch it at all. He kept rinising his mouth hoping that will make his tooth drop. And I'm telling u it works. Save us the trouble haha :P

Poor boy, I wonder how is the feeling of eating without 3 teeth infront.

who looks like a dino more ? (26 jul 09)

Got this interesting book from the library. After the library has moved to Northpoint, it is more troublesome for us to visit it. On the positive side, it has a wider range of children books now.

Yishun Park - next to Safra (25 jul 09)

I woke up at 9.00am today, got the kids to drink some milk and off we go to the park. This is our first visit to the park next to Yishun Safra. It has a big floor area with a jogging track around it and several playground along the track. The kids enjoyed themselves outdoor. YY rode on the bicycle which is meant for charlie, while charlie enjoyed herself on the scooter we bought for yy (so who complaining my kids are not sharing :P ). Poor beth, she has to push charlie's scooter while the girl is indulging herself in the fun and scenery.

After which we stopped at the coffee shop for some traditional toasted kaya bread. YY loved it while charlie ate only the side. Weird girl right.



ps : papa is outstation in China.

What they sleep with (26 Jul 09)

YY sleeps with his pillow, booster and a chou chou. He has this chou chou since he was a baby. It became so smelly at one time that we have to change the bean inside.

yy sleeps on the upper deck.

As for charlie, she has 2 pillow and a chou chou. This current chou chou is her second one since birth. It is in fact bigger than yy's chou chou. In addition, she will sleep with some of her fav toys and any new additions. These include her Elmo, Lumpy, xmas book mark, hello kitty egg and Elmo hand held fan.

This is where charlie sleeps in the day and that her pillows and chou chou. She hides her face behind her pillow thinking I dont know she is actually sucking her thumb. She has 2 sleeping bed as beth is trying her out to sleep without diaper during nap time. Successful rate quite high (most than 75%) but it shorten her naptime indirectly.

This is where charlie sleeps at night.

She has been sucking her thumb since birth while yy sucks a pacifier till he is about 2.5 years old.

2 more teeth dropped (23 jul 09)

YY's two front teeth on the top row are loose. He must have pushed his tooth with his tongue so much that u can see a big gap between the 2 teeth. This round, he refused to let us pull his tooth. However on Monday beth pulled it out but just giving it a pull. Fortunately there was no blood and yy did not cry.

His classmate told him about the fairy tooth story turning the tooth into golden coin. He believed it so much that he is constantly keeping his tooth next to him, waiting for the transformation. Well what to do, I just have to take up the role of fairy tooth and "change" his tooth to 2 $1 coins. My silly boy was so happy with the 2 coins and he told his friend abt it the next day.

2 days later, the other front tooth dropped too when yy accidentally knocked his mouth against the bed frame. He cried cried as it bleeded and the blood stained his bed. Now he is without his 2 front teeth and another 3 teeth loosen too. Imagine we have to go through the process over and over again.

Charlie's first revision book (22 jul 09)

Today I gave charlie her first "revision book". It was a pass down revision book from yy but serve the purpose for her to color the picture in it. She was very contented with it as she finally has her own revision book.

doggie cookie (12 jul 09)

This time we baked both horlick and milo doggie cookie. The horlick cookie looks nicer with a beign yellowish face. Charlie seemed to have lost interest in it as she wasnt very keen to make the dog face. YY was much enthusiastic. He even made some alien face. Creative right

Night Festival at National Museum (10 july 09)

Janice, kate and our family went for the Night Museum event at national museum, after dinner at po po's house. It was super crowded and there were only standing area at the grass patches on side of SMU and limited space on closure road. It is mainly a fire work display with four performers hanged on a spilling wheel. Kate and charlie started crying once the firework started. As for yy, he was shutting his eye and ears most of the time. Not sure about janice cos we are separated. My opinion nothing so attractive and it is not worth for the trip.

janice sleepover at our house (4 jul 09)

Janice came over to our house for sleepover. YY was thrilled. They played and watched tv till midnight and had some snacks before heading for bed at 1 am.
Janice, yy and mummy shared the bed in the master bed room. Fortunately yy did not kick janice while sleeping which was something he did during the overnight at chalet. However janice did not sleep well as she did not bring her pillow or booster. Only her "whitey", her soft toy white tiger.

The next morning, the kids have pancake and milo for breakfast. Janice insisted that she knew how to make her own milo. Despite wanting ice milo, she added only milo without any sugar or milk and hot water plus 2 ices. She even offered to do it for yy.

ps : The black black stuffs is chocolate rice. pancake is served with honey too. Dont look too appetitise but it tasts good.

This is janice's bag for the sleepover. She bought her soft toy tiger, many toys and a book.

This is the pokemon card game that can keep them occupied for hours.

Charlie enjoyed janice's company too. The 3 kids played ball in the morning.
