Happy Do-Re-Mi.....


Took these pictures while getting them ready for bed....as usual, the kids will play on the bed for a while before we tucked them to bed. They look so happy yah.I hope my Do-Re-Me will always be this happy. I love you, my cuties! Muacks muacks muacks......

Dear lord, pls bless my children with happiness and good health forever. Amen.

My good friend visiting (17th Jan 2010)

My good friend, Chew Hong, came over one Sunday to visit my Do-Re-Mi. She has not seen Mi before and it has been more than a year since she last saw Re. He was only one month old during her last visit! So imagine how lon was that......well, the usual excuse: Im staying too far from her. We both stay at opposite ends of the island. She in the extreme west whereas Im in the northen part. Nevertheless, Do & Re enjoyed her company, so much so that Re wanted to follow her home! hahaha!

Kayleen in her "Alfa Romeo"

This walker was previously used by Trenyce, then handed down to Kaden and now to Kayleen. Noticed Kayleen looked stunned? shocked? in these pictures...well, thats because its her first attempt on a walker. Now she zooms in her alfa romeo to everyw corner in the house. Experienced driver now eh hehe....


Mood: Ambitious

Kaden goes swimming! (10th Jan 2010)

Finally after a longlong time, we brought Kaden to swim...on Trenyce's swimming lesson day. He loves playing water with his father. Diving into the pool several times like he's a professional when he's just an amateur when it comes to swimming. He barely knows how to float....keke

Am glad that he has fun and enjoyed his swimming playtime with his daddy. Great activity for bonding!

Trenyce's new beginning 2010

Its been a long time since I penned anything in my blog. 心有余而力不足. There are so many things I wanted to note it down.....well, where shall I start now?

Many things have happened since the begining of Year 2010. Maybe I shall start from Trenyce since she's the eldest hehe.

First week of school was a fresh beginning for Trenyce with many new things in line for her.

Firstly, we withdrew Trenyce from TMCK and enrolled her into Kinderland @YCK. Im glad she likes the school 没妄费我们的一番心血 (meaning wasted our effort). She loves the variety in terms of learning opportunities in the school cos they have music class once a week, computer lessons twice a week and lastly, exercise/physical lessons twice a week. These syllabus are not available in TMCK, you need to pay extra as after school curriculum. Hubby was worried in the beginning that she couldnt get used to the new environment and will have 'rejections' to attending the new school. Trenyce commented boring in her first week of school as the teachers have not followed the real timetable in order to give time to the children to build up relationship i.e getting to know each other etc. Luckily all's well after the first week when the teachers resumed lessons according to the timetable.



Secondly, her long awaited art class at NAFA has finally commenced lessons. She waited till her neck as long as the giraffe hehe...oh well, she simply loves drawing and sketching. Give her a piece of paper and pencil and she can sit down quietly at one corner 'self-entertained'.

Thirdly, we finally found her a swimming coach through one of her classmates' mother. The swimming lessons were conducted at Sengkang Swimming Pool, which was something similar to the old 'Big Splash'...very nice swimming pool. Kaden and hubby also joined in the fun and went swimming every week with 姐姐, but at a different pool so as not to disrupt her lessons. 姐姐 is easily distracted by her surroundings like if she sees us around, she will wave her hand at us rather than concentrating at her lesson etc. 值得安慰的是她终于学会浮在水上 (finally floating on water) after 5lessons. Compared to the first day where she sat besides the pool and cried and now she can finally float and submerged her head into the water, even the coach has no confidence that she could overcome the fear.... It was a GREAT achievement for my dearie! Trenyce, mommy just want to tell you "We are very proud of you!" We lok forward to the day you can swim on your own...hopefully the day will come soon! :)
