New Bed For MIL

Had been wanting to change Mother's bed since we moved in but can't find a good chance until today. At least when we threw away her old bed away she won't be at home stopping us to do that. Went to Furniture Warehouse to get the bed. Total cost @ $1998. Not bad for a good and comfortable bed. Hopefully mother will like her new bed when she comes home.

I was also told by the sale staff that we are entitled for some lucky draw and asked us to fill in the coupons. When I read carefully, I realised that the top prizes was 2 way air tickets for 2 to Bangkok. OMG. Hopefully I get some other prizes. Lolz...

Will we win the 1st prize???

BBQ Again

It was a nice weather in the afternoon. So Elson decided that we shall have BBQ for dinner again. Went to NTUC @ Sun Plaza to grab our foods then proceed back home to start the "fire".

Pregnant Man!!!

Our uncooked dinner

OMG, I look like Panda

Do they look alike??

So hungry until Shannen was about to swallow the spoon

Delifrance Buffet

After watching the "buffet show" on Channel 8, we had decided to give it a try at the Delifrance Breakfast Buffet @ Causeway Point. This is the 1st time Elson admit that he was defeated by the resturant. They only gave us small serving plate for our foods. Since Elson is a meat-eater, his choice of foods only left with hams & sausages. Think this shall be the last time we visit them again.

Home Sweet Home

Mad Jack Cafe

We were already bored with the foods around us and was planning to have a buffet for dinner tonight. Searched on the website and found that most of them(the buffets) are in town. So we then drove to Jalan Kayu to try and search for some good food instead. Drove pass this restaurant with a huge banner on the door "rib eye for S$13.90 only" We were both attached by the banner and decided to give it a try. We ordered 2 ribeye(medium rare), a grilled fish for Shannen, 1 plate of the 9 inches sausages(comes in 3 pieces) and cheesy mix fries. Total bill was S$57.20. Quite cheap for the serving. Shannen also enjoyed her dinner while watching American Idol.

BBQ On A Rainy Day

Was planning to visit Megan @ the hospital in the late afternoon, but after receiving a message from Sharlene saying that Megan will be discharging today, we then decided to plan to do something else.

We went to Sembawang to get some foods and head back home to have a BBQ. Though the weather wasn't that good, we were still safe under the "shelter" we had installed. Shannen was having great time locking the glass door and had me and Elson locked outside the house. Luckily thing was that we had a bunch of spare keys with us. Lolz...

Subway

We decided to go to West Mall to get our Singnet contract renew so that I can enjoy a free laptop from them. The Q was way too long. So we decided to give it a miss, grab a bite @ Subway before heading home.

Dinner @ In-law's Place

We went to pick up Chloe and then head off to Sharlene's place to fetch all the kids + Sharlene & helper to in-law's place for dinner. Since we were the 1st to reach, we were also given priority to eat 1st. It was a nice gathering and dinner then

26 Months Milestones & Mummy's Birthday

It's been 1 and a half month since Shannen started school. We can see the differences in terms of the way she talks, eat, walk, etc.

Talking - She is able to count from 1 to 10 in English, Mandarin & Hokkien. When I sing the songs which the teachers did in school, she can dance with lots of hand signs (following what the teacher had taught her in school). When we asked her about her friends in school, she will always call out for Anne Marie 1st then follow by Eewan. I think these are her 2 favourites friends there.

Eating - Self-feed mostly by herself for the whole meal. She is also eating supper before her night time milk feed.

Walking - She is also able to climb up and down the stairs faster and she is also able to get down of the bed herself. Before that, I always threaten her that if she goes down by herself, she will fall. So that I can do my things while she sits on the bed. Not for now...

Other Action - She is able to take off both diaper pant and normal diaper by herself and threw them in the bin before showering. Before hand, she will took off her pants 1st. For the t-shirt, still pending for more successful tries. She can also wear her shoe and take them off all by herself in school and upon reaching home.

Figures - She weights heavier now and even Elson cannot carry her for too long. There's some muscle on her small thighs too.

Teacher Susie hand me Shannen's Communication Book on last Friday and left a remarks there(for end of the year reviews) :

Shannen has settled well in her class. Now she become familiar with daily routine. Se is able to participate in all activities. She is also able to imitate simple actions during music & movement. Is able to fix simple puzzles, like animals & shapes. She get along well with her friends and through play she learn social skill, sharing & taking turns. Friendships are formed, self-esteem is build. Is able to follow simple instruction. When she misbehave I will explain why this behaviour is not good and she is able to understand. Sometimes, she is easily distracted (don't worry). This is common respond for children at this age. Overall, she is cute and a smart girl.


Daddy, mummy, Edmund & Huiting took a cab to our place. Before that, Huiting & Mummy had collected the cake which I had ordered from Prima Deli last Wednesday. We went to Bottle Tree Village for an early dinner. Wanted to enjoy the dinner by the sea, but we weren't that lucky. It was pouring heavily and we had to sit inside. Good thing is the rain had brought along some cold wind and so we were enjoying the dinner with no sweat. We ordered sweet & sour pork, fried french beans, hotplate tofu, spring onion beef, garlic chicken, 10 chicken satay & 10 pork satay and finally 2 plates of BBQ sotong. We also had some deserts after dinner. Total bill was $150. Cheap & worth it. Definitely will come again!

We went back to our place for the cake and Shannen of course was very excited to be able to blow off the candles.

Shannen's Sercret Fashion Show

I bet many of you would have heard of Victoria's Secret, but what I had posted is something special - Shannen's Secret! Oops... now everyone will know that what kinda panties am wearing at home...

Let me change 1st!

Genting Trip Again

Yes... we are going to Genting again. I bet mummy is trying to save some $$ for me that's why she chose to go to Genting. This time, we will have an additional member with us, Edmund. Paid a total of S$707 for 5 adults and 1 toddler(she is free so far, means no seat for her). Looking forward for Genting again at end of the year. Yahoo!

Long Beans

Finally, we can see the beans growing now.
