ZhiYu's 6th Birthday Party (at school)

The day that ZY has been waiting for has finally arrived! My 6 years old girl has been telling me how she wants to celebrate in school, what party gifts to prepare and even the dress she wants to wear to school!

Since her wish is my command (ahem...at least on her birthday), I painstakingly hand-pumped 26 pieces of the balloon sticks (to be honest, ZY helped alot), make her dream cake (I took a shortcut by ordering a plain cake from Bengawan solo), and search high and low for a matching pokka dots dress.

So here it is..

As usual, we went to Swenson Restaurant for the complimentary birthday firehouse sundae. This is definitely a very sweet and colourful birthday celebration for my pretty and sweet-looking girl ^_^

The Cake (ZY wishes To Have..)

ZY has a sweet tooth, just like her mummy. So when I asked her what type of cake she would like to have for her coming 6th birthday party in school, she told me firmly, "M&Ms!!"

So this is it, ZY's dream cake, I even added Kit Kat to bring the already sugar-loaded cake to another level. (I googled and found this cake pattern)

Lunar New Year 2012

恭喜发财，新年快乐！

Dad's 70th Birthday

We celebrated my dad's 70th birthday today. As he has yet to recover from his operation and radiation, we did not celebrate his birthday in a restaurant with our relatives as planned. We had our dinner at a Japanese restaurant and came home to cut the cake.

Wishing my dad "福禄东海，寿比南山"

New Year Outing

We visited the zoo on New Year day. It was a cloudy and windy day, just the kind of day I like to be outdoor! We reached there at about 9.30a.m and the place was not crowded as I expected a public holiday to be. ZY who has been to the zoo many times became the unofficial tour guide, while DY, who came here the second time, was super excited!

(So disappointed with these photo as they were taken by MW's iPhone4s)

Up close and personal with the blood sucking bats!

Watching the "Animal's Friends Show".

DY was so happy to spot his favourite animal, DOGS!

ZY touching the very well-behaved star of the show.

Saying Bye Bye to the "White-Tiger Elephant". We will be back!

Christmas 2011

It's the time of the year again and ZhiYu is the happiest of us all as she gets to receive many Christmas presents which mostly consist of toys. This year, DinYang who is 21months old, gets to enjoy the holiday too as he is now old enough to appreciate the Christmas tree that we set up at home and love to dance along the Christmas songs.

Assembled a DIY Gingerbread house which unfortunately "collaspe" not long after I took this photo! Oops!

As usual, we went to Sembawang beach in the evening and stayed there for...em...maximum 2 minutes before it started raining! What a downer! The kids were so looking forward to the playground with the swings :-(

Staycation @MBS

Lucky for us, we got a two nights free hotel stay at the MBS as my mum-in-law's friend, who is a member of the casino, is tired of staying at the hotel :)

As usual, the kids are super excited and looking forward to the swimming pool.

At the observation deck.
Surprisingly, the kids are not afraid of the height whereas it was Ah Mah, who said her legs turn wobbly.^_^

DinYang has the bad habit of putting his fingers in his mouth.No matter how I sanitise his fingers, he will touch everything and then immediately stuck into his mouth!

At the famous pool..

Rest and relaxing...
