Fun @ the Playground

As usual, Gwendolyn has asked to go downstairs to play at the playground, this time with her new toy (don't know what it's called though)...but Papa and Mama have forbidden her from playing at home, coz it flies...Lyn Lyn can control quite well by herself and she liked it so much...Since Geraldine cannot play with that toy, as it deems dangerous for young toddlers...she was only allowed to admire the baby pool and play at the playground. Her favourite is still walking up and down the stairs and sliding down the slides!


Lyn Lyn is still feeling strong to be able to hold on to the monkey bars!

Terrapins

During the March School Holidays, the kids at K1 Grand Canyon have been asked to take turns to bring the class pet - the Terrapins, back home and take care before returning to school the next morning. It was Gwendolyn's turn and she instructed Papa and Mama about the requirements in the next morning, e.g. remove the pebbles from the container, transfer the terrapins to a separate container, wash the container and refill it with water, before adding food and returning the terrapins back into the container...

The next morning, she woke up very early to wait for Mama to perform the above steps with her...she diligently did all of the above steps without fault and returned the terrapins safely back into the container! She was so proud of herself!

Princess On Ice

During the March School Holiday break (slightly more than a week), Auntie Lena and Mama brought the 2 girls to watch Disney on Ice - Princess Story, at the Indoor Stadium at Kallang. Both gals requested to be dressed in their princess costumes...at first, Mama was quite skeptical about that...however, when we arrived at Kallang, we saw many little princesses around and gave Mama the comfort that they're not the only weird ones...there were more to accompany them!

Before the show started, we visited the merchandise stalls at the entrance to the Stadium and bought some popcorns, tiara and Ariel wand, so that both gals will be seated quietly to wait for the show to begin. Mama didn't really find the whole setting impressive, well, at least as compared to those that she's been to in Hong Kong...the impression was totally different!


When the show began, we were all pleasantly surprised to see Mickey and Minnie appearing as the hosts to the show...before the princesses appearing one by one, with a much shorted version of their own stories. Both Auntie Lena and Mama agreed that the show was more entertaining for the adults than the kids, as they didn't really know what to expect...they didn't really understand the skills involved in ice-skating. But at least for Lyn Lyn, she went to Festival Walk in Hong Kong in January and saw the ice-skating ring and learnt a little about it before this show!



It was a good show, with good music, good costumes and good choregraphy! Bravo! Lyn Lyn has asked for the next show, when there's another Disney on Ice!

Haagen Daz on Uncle Victor's Birthday

Still remember the birthday party for Auntie Yaya and Mama at Raffles City? The same thing repeated for Uncle Victor. After having a sumptuous dinner at No Signboard, Vivocity, we went to Haagen Daz for an ice-cream treat! The birthday song wasn't as loud as the one at Raffles City...as both Summer and Gwendolyn were eyeing on the ice-cream fondue instead...yum yum...

Summer was literally drinking the chocolate...

Fun Bathing Together

Ever since Geraldine has become too big for the baby bathtub, Mama has been bathing her in the big bathtub. To enjoy the fun and save Mama's time, Gwendolyn will always jump in and join in...see how much fun they're having together!!!

Lucas's 1st Birthday

Lucas Di Di's birthday party was held earlier than his actual day...we went to Gu Gu and Gu Cheung EC's function room for the party! The cake was very nice, with a main cake and some surrounding cupcakes, with many butterflies and bees on them!


Happy Birthday, Lucas!

Andersen's Ice-cream

This morning, Dai Gu Gu came over for a swim at our place and we went out for lunch and some shopping together! Suddenly, a wicked mind went cross Gwendolyn and she's asked for ice-cream...Papa was trying to satisfy all the sweet tooth of the 4 ladies (Mama, Gu Gu, Lyn Lyn and Geraldine), he's suggested a gastromical experience for all at Andersen...look at the chocolate fondue set, there are strawberries and bananas for Geraldine and Mama, chocolate ice-cream and honey dew for Lyn Lyn, strawberry ice-cream and strawberries for Gu Gu...

We were all so full after consuming the fondue set and when we reached Gu Gu's house for Lucas's birthday party, we were too full to eat...


Good value for money
