Charity Fun Day

Never mind the hot scorching sun. Never mind the jam-packed crowd. Supporting the charity drive is one of the ways we could contribute to the people in need.











cheers!

Our First Brunch Date

The Lims, Tans and Yips first brunch date took place at Spruce last Sunday. Nice dining corner with mini playground equipped. Although Andy and I think the food was mildly delectable. Would look forward to the next brunch date ;)





Emily bought couple tees for Jayden and Chloe. Sweet!




Bosco enjoyed being photographed by Rachel

Lovely photos taken by Emily

Kranji Countryside

We had a great time visiting Kranji Countryside last Saturday. Visiting and buying those uniquely-grown fruits and vegetables were exceptionally enjoyable. If not for the rain, we would have visited more different farms.

Would love to visit again someday! Some photos taken at the Aeroponics farm, Max Koi Farm, and (yummy) lunch at D'kranji Farm Resort.

Tourists for the day :)


Never seen such thing in my life


And this too, even Bosco was stunned


Snake gourd


As the name suggested, the koi is HUGE!


The owners told us the ponds were 3-metre-deep


Narcissism set in...


The boy and his tongue-twisting

Sobs



Chloe is super sticky to Papa recently.
She would cry so pitifully when she couldn't find Papa.
This was taken last night, while Papa was still at work.

*awww*

I Have A Confession To Make

I've been so lousy. I regret my stupidity. I want to note this down and make sure it won't happen again.

Chloe just drove me up to wall this evening. She has been crying a lot this week. Almost every night before sleep and making lots of noise in the midnight.

I totally lost my cool when she was crying for nothing for the last 20 minutes.

Like a mad woman, I took out the cane and screamed at her...
I even did all that yelling in front of Bosco.

What the heck has got into me?

I took a breather by stepping out of the bedroom and calmed myself. Chloe followed my path, and still crying. And there she stood still, and finally vomited due to excessive crying.

Fighting the angst and guilt in me, I moved back to the bedroom while my helper cleaning up Chloe at the living room. As I carried Bosco in my arms, his eyes was so soothing as if he was trying to ask me, "What went wrong?"

There, I was awaken. My heart sank. How could I react so harsh towards Chloe when all she needed was only pure affection. Right at that moment, Chloe appeared in front of me again, weeping, and asking to be hugged.

I put down Bosco and quickly welcomed Chloe to my arms. I felt so sorry for her. She then fell asleep in less than 10 mins. Gosh, she must be so tired of all the crying. I whispered sorry to her and kissed her good night.

I hope my sunshine would forgive me!

31 Months Old



5 months to go before Chloe turns 3 years old. My oh my.. It still feels like yesterday when I was promoted to a mother *age denial*

Anyway, Chloe has been 100% diaperless for a month. Andy and I would make effort to drag her up to the loo before midnight. That way, she would be able to stay dry til morning.

Chloe speaks, argues, complains, negotiates, laughs, cries, plays, sings, dances a lot, everyday. She is very enthusiastic towards school that she has her imaginary friends, teachers, classroom and homework.

Chloe proves to have pretty good memory. Many a times she surprises us with her vivid memory and observation for details. Last month for example, I was overwhelmed when she could point out my office building when we drove past it during the weekend. She only visited my work place once this year, in January.

We look forward to her loving acts and cute conversation, everyday!
Love you to bits, Chloe darling! :*

When Papa's Out of Town



Mama's missing him terribly and really dislike the quietness. To ease her misery, mama figured some ways out by:
• buying her 1st ever game app for the phone
• making herself extra busy at work
• downloading more kick-a** songs to help her go through the journey from office to home

Besides those, Mama turned in early with us as well every night. The sight at home without Papa around is just too too quiet..

So now we are elated that Papa is coming home today. We can see the missing smile on Mama's face! Yepee!!!

And no more forcing us to take self-portrait like this to please herself. Papa, please take some nice ones for us like how Mama did for us ok?



Welcome home Papa!
We love you :*

晚安 vs Good Night

刚刚我陪思慧睡觉的时候,对她说了一句,“思慧,晚安!”

没想到她竟回我,“妈妈,不要说‘晚安’,要说 'Good Night!'。
我不喜欢听‘晚安’,你去哪里学来的?
记得吗?下次跟我说 'Good Night'!!”

tsk, 真受不了她!

祝伟大的妈妈们,母亲节快乐!!
