Zoo Trip - 3rd April 2010

Made a Trip to the zoo last weekend!
It was a wonderful trip...definitely!
Considering that it's the first outing to the zoo for our family of 4, it's worth at least a blog entry!!! :)





Didi Xavien is 7 months old, and jie jie Claira shows who's the boss by saying "Follow me!"...
Wow! That's pretty amazing huh? :)
Loved this trip! :)

The Alphabet Song

Yesterday, while putting Claira to sleep, i realized that Claira could sing the alphabet song!
"A...B...C...D...E...F...G...!" ... the entire song! though not very clearly articulated.

She would sing along with me during bed time while waiting for her bedtime milk...

To be honest, i really feel so proud of her! OMG!

Korean BBQ Monday

Wanyin and i had a day off from work yesterday and decided to go for some korean bbq pork belly.

We drove to Ju Shin Jung Korean Charcoal BBQ Restaurant at east coast to have our lunch... As we sat down in the restaurant, we ordered 2 set lunches and also the famous bbq buffet.
It was a buffet alright... but we didn't went pass round 1 with the set lunches and bbq pork belly/pork ribs/chicken...



As usual, Claira watched us eat and also had a few bites of our bbq lunch too...



and... not to forget, she was also pampered with some Baby Einstein videos on my old nokia E61.



We waited a little for the rain to stop outside before taking a walk at the beach...
Claira was so happy walking about on one of the grass patches, from left to right, and right to left... always keeping her eyes on the ground and careful not to fall...




Little Claira's gestures are always such a wonderful thing to look at...
This is what people call "watching your children grow up" !?!?



We really enjoyed the trip! =P

Throat Inflammation

Claira had been behaving pretty weird since last week... screaming and yelling on most occasions.

She had an "on and off" fever since Wednesday and finally went to see a doctor on Monday...

4 medicine to take! poor little Claira had throat inflammation...

Whenever i looked at Claira's face when she was about to take the medicine, it really hurts me to see that she is suffering... arghhhhh!!!

Luckily she looks ok today... no more fever, cough and running nose...

hopefully Claira doesn't falling sick again...
hmmm... ok, we all know that this is not possible...

Botanic Gardens

2 Sundays ago, we went to Botanic Gardens... It was a fine cloudy day with no scorching sun, and we were glad we make this trip...

Well, being a botanic garden, this place had quite a number of tress, bushes and plants.. some trees in particular were so huge, i can't help but imagine them being alive and walking around(like those in lord of the ring)... strange thought... haha...

There was this lake in the compound and we managed to have a close up encounter with one of the swan which was swimming around.



Little Claira pointed out her right finger and declare it to be a "duck"...
"No Claira, it's a swan!"... can't blame her, it ReAllY looks like a duck in her books... haha



This is a picture Wanyin snapped for me and Claira...



I had not spot many(or any??) flat grass areas where Claira can roam around freely... But that didn't stop Claira from demanding to walk on the grass...



Mummy Wanyin took this picture with Claira halfway through our walk...



Overall, it was a good trip... truely relaxing...

A little lame song...

While washing up Claira yesterday evening, a rhythm suddenly came into my mind.
Soon after, Wanyin and I were happily composing the mother-of-all lamest song...

Inspired by the nostalgic 想信我吧新家坡 (patriotic song), here is our little lame "invention":

Mummy 是个好 Mummy,
怀胎十月生你这个 Baby,
每天早上都吃个 Roti,
相信 Mummy 是决对的!

Daddy 是个好 Daddy,
每天早上起来都喝一杯 Copi,
放工回来就爱看 TV,
相信 Daddy 是决对的!

Baby 是个好 Baby,
每天早上起来都要换一个新 Nappy,
跑东跑西真 Happy,
疼爱 Baby 是决对的!
