Goodbye Spore!

Currently blogging on my iPhone at T1. Now rushing to go to our gate! Flight going off at 8.05am! Hurry hurry!!

Counting Down to Beijing Trip

Hee....in another few hours' time, we will be on the plane flying to Beijing! The initial intention of going there is to support WX for his Ironman compeition in Tianjin. But, just 1 - 2 weeks ago, he received notification that the competition is gonna be cancelled due to some unforeseen circumstances.

Oh well, in the end, it would be a leisure trip for the Tan and Heng family....

I think I have packed most of the items and hope that I did not leave anything out. Hopefully can sleep by 11pm cos we gonna wake up early tomorrow!

Ciaoz....

Little Penguine in Action!

Mummy Me again started my disappearing act so that Little Arielle can do much of the work by herself instead of depending on me.

Not bad leh....like the penguines that she drew! Saw this when I came back from my disappearance :p

As she wasn't feeling that well, I helped her a bit by colouring the black portion.

And the outline too....

And XP helping with the 'spraying' of snow on the pic....

Yah....that's was she got from Pasir Ris beach....Fell down there lor! Everyone was accident free except her!

Faintz....luckily it din really bleed!

Nothing to Blog?

Hmm....this is one of the rare times that I have got nothing to talk about Little Arielle. That being the case, let this post be what Mummy Me wants to say to her:

Thanks for coming into my life and making it wonderful. Though there are times (many of it) that you made me mad, you are still my little darling :p

Baby Lewis's Shower

Wow....time flies! I remember the last time when we went to Astin's place, she just delivered Lucas. I can't believe that this second time that I visited her was to celebrate her second prince's baby shower!

Din have much chance to take pic of Baby Lewis cos I'm not sure if the parents would be pantang or not :p So in the end, I requested Astin to send me his pic instead. And as a memory, I just randomly took Little Arielle with the swimming pool background! Hahaha!

In any case, just happy for her and hereby wish the whole family well and full of happiness!

Boring Monday....

XP fell sick and that means that we would be stuck at home on a pre-holiday night :( While others are having a probably nice meal or some fun outside, we are stoning around at home.

While we feel for XP cos he's suffering, somehow just can't help but feel xianz.

Hope that he would get well soon....

Today's Parents Portraits Contest

Hee....from the title, you must have guessed that I have signed up Little Arielle for some contest again! We made a trip specially to United Square Shopping Mall for the shoot and we participated in 2 contests: (1) Canon Cover Child -- for kids aged 0-6years and (2) OCBC Cover Mother and Child – for mums and children aged 2-6 years.

Of course I don't think my girl will win but it's just for the fun of it and can get back the pic :p

She's In :p

Just received the email confirmation that Little Arielle is in the semi-finals for the Little Miss Glamourous! Hee....I knew she will definitely be selected. I'm confident that she would do better this year. But of course, no confident that she would be crowned Little Miss Glamourous.

But it's okie! It's the experience that matters :p

Counting down to competition day on 3rd Jun 2011!

The Never Changed Compasspoint

It's been a long time since we last stepped into Compasspoint. I guessed, that's at least 1 - 2 years ago! I still remembered that this used to be my 'usual spot' when we were staying in Punggol. Now that we have moved to East Coast area, we seldom visit there.

Decided to go and check out this mall and was surprised that nothing much has changed, especially their foodcourt, which is forever so crowded!! Other than that, most of the stores were still there except for a minor switch here and there.

Realised that there's actually nothing very interesting here and that made me think how come it used to be my hot spot the last time??

Anyway, was in Best Denki and Little Arielle grew excited when she saw the electric piano. Quickly made herself comfy and she started playing on it. Perhaps, it's really time for her to learn? I did enquire at the CC yesterday and they gave me a slip to contact the school because they mentioned that the teachers do conduct lessons at their venue but we need to make arrangement with the school directly. The fees was not x. $200+ for 11 lessons leh! Definitely cheaper than Yamaha! Hmm....will give them a call to find out more details :p

Improving Week by Week

This is the second time that I felt that my time, effort and money spent on Little Arielle's art lesson is worth every single cent. I went downstairs to settle the payment for her new school term and when I got back, she has done up most of the letters. I couldn't believe that she did it and asked if she was the one who drew it. Her teacher, Mr Goh, immediately told me that she did it on her own. He only helped to start the first letter! Woohoo~ Boy, am I proud of her! Can really see the vast improvement in her! Even mama was amazed that she could draw the people so well. Don't say her, I myself was surprised too :p

Phew!!

Went to pick Little Arielle from my mama house....prior to that, was really worried that she would get chickenpox! Cos our overseas trip is just 2 weeks away! If she got it now, she sure can recover in time. But the problem is, Mummy Me has yet to get it! If I got it after her, it would definitely affect the trip. And if I quarantine myself from her, I would feel very bad that mama has to help me to take care of her and me, as a mother, I would feel very bad that I cannot take care of my own sick child.

But when I saw my little darling, I knew that my worries are unfounded! She is definitely not having any chickenpox! Hmm....the vaccine that she took really help? Whatever the case, I pray hard that nothing goes wrong for the next 2 weeks!!

My little girl is such a sweetie :p Simply love her sweet smile and that never fails to melt our heart :p

Friday the 13th

It's always nothing good when I saw Little Arielle's school number flashing on my hp early in the morning. It was her form teacher, Ms Tan who called and asked if I know that Little Arielle had a spot on her nose.

Frankly speaking, I did not see any spot on her face at all last night and told her accordingly. Next, she suggested bringing Little Arielle to the doctor to get a confirmation that she's okie because recently, there was a spread of chickenpox in school.

Wahhh....I sweat man! Quickly called mama and she just brushed me off by asking me to tell Ms Tan that it was probably just a mozzie bite. Apparently, telling her that did not help lor. Ms Tan asked mama to either bring her home and if she's okie over the weekend, she can attend school on Mon. Otherwise, we gotta bring her to the doc.

Told XP and he said that to be sure, better to bring her to the doc. At the same time, I asked mama to get Little Arielle's medication for the upcoming China trip.

I anxiously waited for the diagnosis and was disappointed to know that the doc could not confirm if it was chickenpox! Wat biangz! Call yourself a doc and yet you can't tell. She only told mama to bring Little Arielle back tomorrow to check if things got worst overnight! This made me more xianz....

My Little Angel

Mummy Me was home early today cos it's teambuilding day for my division and we were able to go off earlier than usual.

Saw that Little Arielle was still asleep when I reached mama's house. Hmm....doesn't she look like an angel...when she's asleep :p

Remembering the Old Days!

Little Arielle had some school work which she needs my signature. As she made me angry earlier, I refused to sign it! First, she showed the pages for me to sign and when I ignored her, she went and took a pen with her, came back to me and asked me to sign again.

This scene brought back old memories where I would ask Daddy to sign my work for me. Time flies....it's actually my turn to sign for my girl! We have all aged....
