After so many days of 'school holidays', finally can go to school today.
Zann was feeling so happy.
It was her first time wearing the uniform too.
Ho...ho...ho
Tuesday, December 25, 2007
Zann was having fun at the first kiddy ride. In fact, she had the ride twice. I guessed it was the thrill of the car moving up and down. Even until the music has stopped, she still didn't want to step out of the car.
Does this prove that my girl has bear phobia ? She cried after she saw the smiling bear. Hmm...
See how happy she was..whenever there's food. Actually, who doesn't?
This mini cooper costs only $19.90. It's cute though. The sales assistant was helpful to show Zann how to play.
I wanted to buy...but she's too young for this.
Merry Christmas !!

For this festive holiday season, here's wishing everyone a MERRYCHRISTMAS. Hopefully everyone will have a wonderful year ahead, and every wishes will come true....
Winter Solstice Festival
Saturday, December 22, 2007
Today is winter solstice festival meaning we had 'tang yuan'. Eating these glutinous rice balls also means that we are one year older.
This year's a bit different. Cos Zann will be getting her first try. And I thought she would love to eat them especially with the sugar syrup.
But in the end, she spitted out.
My girl doesnt like to eat tang yuan ar...
Hmm...never mind. Shall try again next year.
Can you feel the x'mas mood...?
Wednesday, December 19, 2007
I was wondering how different can Zann be now that she is two years old.
Hmm...more hyperactive, I guessed.
She was trying to open the door to doctor's room.
Nurse: Eh..girl, cannot open the door. Wait Auntie 打屁股... At the clinic yesterday, she was running around and around, screaming and laughing away. Arh...oblivious to my disapproved look.
I had to bribe her with kaya toast before she quieten down.
After the check-up, we had a little window shopping in town.
Spending a good amount of time trying the toy bike.
Enjoying sipping away her favourite water-melon juice.
ABC Music and Me
Tuesday, December 18, 2007
The last time when Teacher Cindy told me that Zann always participate enthusiastically in the music class,
I wasn't surprised.
Even at home, she was always jumping and clapping whenever I played the children's songs.
I have enrolled her in the 4 weeks music-enrichment program.
It's called ABC Music & Me created by Kindermusik.
Suitable for 2-6 years old.
It comes with home materials which means I can participate with Zann within home environment as well.
The class is starting next year.
It's not about being kiasu. I was hoping the program will helps to enhance her creativity.
And, not forgetting it's where her interest lies as well.
Chopsticks or fork?
Monday, December 17, 2007
I had lunch appointment with Jaime today.
J: I think the way you used chopsticks wrong lei. Me: Hur...aiyo..never mind lah. The food reached my mouth can liao.
And I was about to use it to poke the fishball into my mouth.
I heard that the correct way should be held in the parallel direction. Seriously, I wasn't bothered with the way I used.
Given a choice, I would prefer fork instead.
--------
On my way back, I bought three lovely cupcakes of three different flavours.
The strawberry, mango and the raspberry...Yummy
Too...dae

*cough*
I haven't recovered. Even though there are some food I need to avoid for now,
but I am dreaming and craving away for food.
Looking at the menu, I couldnt decide what to eat. So I tried the vegetarian ramen.
No choice.
Shopped for awhile. Bought some new clothes for Zann. Went back home after that.
Birthday Update
Thursday, December 13, 2007
Zann's birthday celebration was at Downtown East. I would like to say a big thanks to all the friends who were able to make it on that day. Plus, it was a working day to a lot of people.
And yes, not forgetting that Jane and Elaiine with their precious were the first to arrive.
Aren't they adorable?
The table were loaded with food for the BBQ. Yummie stuffs like spicy stingray and the mashed potato were my favourite. But I didn't manage eat it. Sigh...
I was so pai say too. Arh cos some of the food I bbq were burnt.
The birthday cake we chosen for Zann was decorated with Snow white and the seven dwarfs. She actually wanted to eat the Snow White, but I didn't give it to her. I was so afraid the chocolate-filled candy might be too heaty.
Zann has dozed off just before we decided it was time to cut the cake. Some of the guests including Mrs Ong were eager to see her. But the birthday girl was in slumberland.
Seeing her sleeping so soundly, I couldnt bear to wake her up. Afterall, she was asleep less than an hour.
She looked kinda of blur when we were about to cut the cake.
It was like she wasn't aware what was happening except that there was a huge crowd in front of her.
Uncle Jeff and her girlfriend has helped us alot in preparing the charcoal and starting the fire.
The blur me even forgot to take photo with my good friend, Eileen. And I didn't manage to talk to Yizhong and the rest too.
The presents were secondary. It's the thought that counts.
But still, I would like to say thanks to all who came and making this an enjoyable and memorable day for Zann.
Happy 24 months old
Wednesday, December 12, 2007
Zann is now a cavekid.
curious attention increased very busy enjoy pleasing adults keen in learning new things Interested in surrounding Determined to communicate
She's officially TWO years old today. Happy Birthday to my precious Zann.
Hmm...not forgetting the terrible two's symptoms, insisting on getting whatever she wants… Cries at every instant when she is not pleased.
She is also incredibly active nowadays. We can never see her sitting still whether it's home or public.
Has started to say words like hot, kiss, shue (tissue), pom pom (bath). Though she doesnt pronounce the words accurately, still, it's fun hearing along with her cute expression.
She now sits with a book, studying the colourful pictures rather than randomly flipping pages.
Nowadays she has a new cheeky habit, that's clapping her wet palms, sprinkling water on my face. Must have picked up from childcare..sigh
She's wearing my shoes
Monday, December 10, 2007
Due to my poor skill, I forgot to tilt the angle of the camera.
Zann has a pair of 'new toy'. She was trying them on her feet, enthusiastically. Not knowing that they are big for her feet, she still persisted trying. Arh...she even ignored me when I asked her to sit.

Unhealthy junkfood. Watching HK drama series. Playing game.
----
I’ve missed one too many HK dramas these two years. Now that I am back to the TVB dramas addiction again.
Currently following the HK drama, Drive of Life. I enjoyed watching Raymond and Charmaine inside the show. Still a long way to finish. 60 episodes altogether.
Don't know if I can tahan, cos there's an urge to skip to last episode.
And that explained why I am sooo sleepy these few days.

The underwater world
Wednesday, December 5, 2007
Zann's childcare has organised a trip to Sentosa today. All the parents have signed the consent form given last week.
We woke up very early to get ourselves prepared. Needless to say, Zann was very excited. This time was with the teachers and all the children.
We were early. In fact we were 15 mins earlier. But our bus was the last to go cos we were waiting for another family.
See? She started to get a bit impatient.
1000am
The weather was cooling. We reached Palawan beach which was next to the Dolphin Lagoon. Yes, we were all going to see the pink mammal later...yeah
It was drizzling when the performance started. Fortunately all of us didn't get wet. We were watching under the tentage.
Lunch was provided at the dolphin lagoon by the childcare.
The next stop was the Underwater world. The first time we went on our own was on Zann's first birthday last year. I still remembered that the silly girl cried all the way inside. She wasn't keen on the trip. I guessed she was too young to understand at that time. Ended up we merely stayed for half an hour.
Today was different. She wasn't cranky at all. She was enjoying herself.
"Mummy, can I bring the fishes home?"
330pm
There was a heavy rain when we reached home. Tiring. Zann was the first to concuss on her bed.
SUN-day
Sunday, December 2, 2007
We were hitting town today. At the same time, dropping by Takashimaya Toy fair.
There was a Sesame Street performance and photo-taking on the stage. We only managed to see some of the characters though.
One of them, Zann's favourite red fiery monster, Elmo...
Didn't stay long at the toy fair either. The place was too packed. So we decided to head elsewhere for our early dinner.
Helping mummy to take the ketchup sauce?
No. Playing with the ketchup sauce instead.
She: Where's my food ? Me: Not ready yet. Have to wait for a while.
She: But I am hungry now. Me: Wait for a while ok?
She: Why must wait? I don't want....
Little Zann was getting a bit impatient liao. Lucky the strawberry milkshake came in time to save the situation.
I couldn't decided what to order for myself until I saw spaghetti Aglio e Olio inside the menu. Great!
After my first recommended try from QM at BakerZin, I simply love this spaghetti noodles tossed with garlic.
Hmm, the noodles looked extra oily...was it the extra olive oil added? I want to learn how to cook this.
Someone was very quiet concentrating on her food. She has been coping very well with self feeding.
