Seoul Yummy!

My daddy treated us to dinner as he had a small windfall last week. We found a small Korean restaurant tucked at the corner of the 4th storey of Square 2. Craving for something Korean, we went in to have a try. The place was almost full house as it was a Friday night. Their food is quite authentic and the service is great! They had 6 plates of side dishes which was so yummy that we had many refills :P

We ordered about 9 dishes for the 5 of us and it cost only $108 (incl. taxes) and I must say it's really affordable. Will definitely go back again soon :)








We finishes off our dinner with some sweet treats. The yogurt with green tea sauce is quite yummy as the slightly sour yogurt matches well with the sweet watermelon cubes. However, I still prefer the dessert at MOF anytime :)



P.S. BTW, it case u r wondering, the restaurant is called "Seoul Yummy"

ZY's First Homework

Today, ZY's Chinese teacher, Ms Chen gave the children their first homework! It's a parent-child assignment that we have to do together at home. It's a simple task of painting/pasting anything that is blue in colour.

This is what we had done ^U^

 

 

Happy Days @ Genting

We had spent 3 tired but very enjoyable days at Genting last weekend and was back home yesterday night. While MW & the two mommies had a great time at the casino, I enjoyed my time with ZY and my sis-in-law at the theme parks. As this was the second trip to Genting for ZY, she was quite familiar with the place and thoroughly enjoyed herself.

ZY spent the long 6-hrs coach journey by playing with the video games and 'relaxing' at the lounge area at the lower deck.

 

I've bought unlimited all theme park passes for ZY and she tried on all the children rides. At RM31, it's really worth it! ZY took so many rides in these 3 days that I've lost count on how many times she took the rides. As there were not many people at certain times, ZY will just get out after each round and move to another car without having to re-queue again :) Do u notice that the cars that ZY was sitting are all different?

 

 

 

 

On the second day, we spent the whole morning at the Outdoor Theme Park. It was a super sunny day and hence you can see that most of the pictures taken here are with ZY squinting her eyes.

 

This was the first time that ZY tried on the junior bumper car ride. At first, she was still quite daring and managed to 'drive' the car well, but after a few bumps, she started to cry and had to be carried out of the car by the attendant.

 

Finally, a ride on the monorail!! We did not manage to board the monorail on the last trip as it was under maintenance, so ZY was super happy to be on it this time. ^_^

 

This is a new addition to the park called the "Beryl's Chocolate Wonderland". The chocolate shaped seats are so cute so I asked ZY to sit on it. However, the seats are very slippery and ZY fell backwards and hit her back on the small bolts on the fence. So this little girl cried again here..my poor baby!

 

 

ZY loves the Topsy Turvy Play area situated at First World Hotel. Actually, its nothing great compared to those in Singapore, but I guess no kids will be able to reject any kind of slides and tunnels. ZY demanded that she wants to be here again as she had enjoyed it very much during our last trip.

 

As we were at Genting on Mother's Day, we celebrated this special day with two other mommies, my mother and my mother-in-law by having a international buffet dinner at the Coffee Terrace in Genting Hotel. We did not take any nice group picture here as ZY chose this time to be uncooperative and refused to look at the camera. Hiaz...

 

Some outdoor pics taken on the last day at Genting.

 

Another satisfied customer of Genting Highlands ^_^

 

My Mother's Day 'Presents'

ZY made this card in her playgroup and gave it to me last Friday after school.

 

She then sang these two songs just before her nap on Friday. I've never heard her singing these songs before and I must say I'm pleasantly surprised and is really touched. ^_^

My Sunflower

Today I suddenly realised that it has been quite some times since I've done any crafts with ZY. Looking back at my blog's archives, the last post on craft is almost one month ago! This lazy mum is at it again... she has recently found some really good books in the library and once she opens the book, she finds it really difficult to put down. Hence, while she is burying her head in the book, she lets ZY "free play" on her own. :P

So anyway, I quickly redeemed myself by doing this sunflower finger painting with ZY today. ZY really loves to get paints all over her fingers! ^_^

 

 

"Mama Mia!" Baby

As I've mentioned in my earlier post, I love the musical Mama Mia! that performed in Singapore in 2004. I love all the ABBA songs that were sang in the musical so much that I even bought the Special Edition Original Cast Recording CD at the show to enjoy them at home:)

I will often play the CD at home even after ZY was born, which was in 2006.

Guess ZY loves the songs too as you can see from the video below. Hopefully, it will not be long before I can bring ZY to attend a musical together! ^^

(PS:Paiseh, you have to tilt your head to watch this video as I've not yet realised that we can't take video in portrait at that time! hehehe..)

Come and Hear Me Sing Karaoke!

We went to a karaoke session cum birthday celebration organised by MW's ex-colleague today.

This is the first time we brought ZY to a karaoke lounge. Before we reached there, MW had already forewarned ZY that we were going to a place whereby there were very loud music. She gingerly said that she 怕怕, but we told her that there was going to a birthday party and she happily agreed to go. :)

We reached Party World KTV @ Clarke Quay at about 4p.m. and I'm surprised to see that the place is very family friendly with brightly lit hallways and very clean VIP rooms and toilets. Maybe because it is a new branch, the room does not smelled of any cigarette smoke and ZY was very comfortable in it. This little girl even managed to make her debut in a Karaoke lounge! I've picked some children's songs that ZY is familiar with and she has no problem singing and dancing in front of all the uncles and aunties, gor gor and jie jie! Below is a short clip of ZY singing, with daddy and mummy as the backup singers. ^_^



Some more pics taken in the KTV...






Too bad ZY is the only kid in the group to sing as the other kids are just too shy. She sat through the whole 2.5hrs and happily announced that she wanted to come back to sing Karaoke again!
