Zoo fun!

We went to the zoo around 2 weeks back and it was so fun.Ranielle was so excited!she kept pointing to the animals around her and even naming some of them.She even got to feed 1 goat at the children's area,she got frighten of the large goat who banged the barrier so I had to feed the rest.It's more enjoyable than the 1st time we went,more of us the merry and she's able to tell us what's that animal,where it is and highly mobile too.I'm sure the next time we go will be even better,i really can't wait !

Phew,finally done trimming.

Finally colour copied Ranielle's zoophonics flashcards today and also a set for my nephew.Basically,me and Derek have to figure out the alignment which we keep getting wrong so wasted lots of ink and paper,argh!!but we finally got it,enlarge it.and therefore copied it.One set has 26 cards so 2 sets 52pieces.Printing time still ok but it was trimming of the excess paper that can really kill me.We printed on A4 so i had to trim off 4 sides per piece to make it around 5R size so 52 x 4 =208.Lucky i have a paper trimmer if not i sure become cock-eyed imagine using a penknife and ruler hahahha... i sure faint.Now the last thing to do is laminate,if not it can't even last 1 sec,literally.Will upload once it's done

Lunch at Illuma

We went Illuma today to have lunch at this japanese street restaurant on the 4th floor.They have a few restaurants.Saw Pey pey's fb photo the nite before and it looks good so went to try today.The concept is quite nice,You order your food through a talking pen,so whatever you want you point the pen to the item and it will prompt you for quantity and enter if done press send and your order will go through.Even for waiter,you use the pen.My only problem was the pen is quite loud,so every one knows what you are ordering and it keeps repeating,abit irritating,Food is quite nice,service also quite ok.Price is quite reasonable depending on what you order.Me and Ranielle shared a mini ramen+mini kani fried rice for $14,portion quite ok.Derek's cha siew ramen about $13 and Martial's ramen+gyoza set is around $14.We also order 1 spider roll,inside has roe,soft shell crab etc..only 4 pieces for $10 or $12 a bit ex for that.But overall,it's ok and we will definately be back.

Playground fun!

Terrible twos!!!

It's here,save me!!I'm driven crazy by the little Queen playing who's the boss.Here's some of the thing she says on a daily basis,
-No,i don't want
-I want yours
-SIT DOWN
STAND UP
-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-NO.NO.NO(while pointing her finger at you)
I want this,i want that
-I want eat this
-not nice

and a few more,everyday she comes up with something new.I'm going bonkers!!!Whenever we are out she likes to explore,which is fine but she loves to run into shops and hide in little corners and you have to chase her or look for her like a mad woman,really not glam lo :( gosh,I'm so afraid i can't find her.I just want to stand there and cry.She knows she is not suppose to do it but she will still do it.All she wants,is my reaction and she really gets a kick out of it.There's so much more!!Just hope that it will go away soon but wait,then the terrible threes will come.Oh no,God please save me!

She understands.

just Thursday,we were running late for class so me and Ranielle was rushing down to take a cab. I was carrying my bag,her food bag and her stroller and her,but she wasn't being cooperative and kept dragging her feet,making her knees clean the floor and i was telling her to stop it !! we are late!!then there was this lady at the bus stop staring at us.Well, i just stared back.Rude,yes i agree.I'm already pressing for time with a little tyrant trying to play tricks,and a total stranger staring at me really pisses me off.Ok ok..finally got onto the cab,i told Ranielle sternly..Mummy is very angry with you,i told you we are late..why you drag your feet until you clean the floor??You are a big girl right,you can walk properly right.Then she nod her head yes..so i ask her,are you a good girl,again nod yes.then,i ask her,can you be naughty,if you are naughty,today no gym.She said ok and true enough for the whole day she tried to be a little mellow,And we both had a fun day :)

The Aspiring singer

Gosh,Ranielle can sing all the songs from the cartoons that she has been watching,songs that i've been singing,even my message tone.IT Means,she has been watching too much tv!!!!!!! On the other hand,I think it's great,not the tv part,the singing part..hahaha..it proves that her memory is good and she always learning no matter what and how :)

Fun filled day!!

We were invited to Grace's house today,and all the kids had a great time swimming and lunch by the pool.Grace's mummy,Helen whipped up a delicious chicken cassorole for the group accompanied by garlic bread and wedges.The kids were so excited playing in the pool splashing water,having a great time.aftr washing up,Helen serve us dessert with chocolate cake,yummy yummy.Thank you Helen!!!

She as the yar-yar slang

Ranielle has the really affecionate way of calling things and mummy,daddy.For eg.Mummy,she will say mummy-yar then daddy,daddy-yar in a very soft and sweet voice that you can't resist.So when it comes to things that she wants...beware!!Your heart might just melt and give in to her.
