Hi-5 Overdose


Yup, we ARE addicted to Hi-5! Today was the ultimate... Rowan & I watched Hi-5 (recorded programmes) in the morning, afternoon, evening and just before going to bed! No, we can never get enough of Hi-5, which is driving Mummy totally nuts. Rowan, who is still learning to talk at 20 months mumbles "5...5..." to get Mummy, Daddy or Gong Gong to play the recordings for him. Once we start, we are in a world of our own.. smiling, singing and dancing with Charli, Nathan, Tim, Kathleen & Kellie. Mummy gets really mad whenever I ignore her, my eyes glued to the TV. Guess what, we even watched Hi-5 on the car ride home from Po Po's place. My Daddy has a DVD player installed in his car!

Music Wonderland



That's me at my Yamaha Music Wonderland class, which I attend every Sunday. I started in June last year with Little Notes, doing castanets, bells and triangle. I really enjoyed that class so Mummy enrolled me for the next level in Jan. Most of the kids are from the Little Notes class... and I already am acquainted with them, except for a few new faces. I like it that Mummy gets to come into class with me and join me in the singing and dancing:) We get to play on the keyboard too, I love it! Sometimes, we got too carried away and continued to slam away even after Ms Toh said "Stop!". Yup, Ms Toh was from my Little Notes class too. Occasionally we were invited to stand in front of the room and rehearse the songs we learnt in front of our Mummy or Daddy. I am usually the shy one.

Ben & Jerry's - Yum!


After gulping down 3 cups of B&J's chocolate fudge ice-creams, we are craving for MORE!! This new outlet at Raffles City basement is located next to the water fountain... we love it.

Water Babies




We went over to Cousin Eunice's place for a swim. We were so scared at first we didn't dare to even dip our feet in the water. Uncles Chris & Wee Chong are BEST... they took turns straddling Rowan across the pool... before long he could hold onto one of them, kicking his legs like a pro! Still, Rowan needed the support of our uncles... he didn't like the float despite Mummy's coaxing. I am definitely braver!! After Mummy carried me AND the float in the water several rounds, I was ready to "swim"on my own. I didn't even need Mummy near me. I finally overcome my fear... yeah... I LOVE swimming!! My Rowan dee dee also struck out on his own after a while, and BOTH of us had a great time at the pool. We definitely wanna swim again!

Ice Ice Baby!

Our Mummy has given us new playthings - ice! To keep us pesky kids out of trouble while the cleaning auntie does her job on Saturdays, we are kept happy with our cool toys. Getting wet was part of the FUN!

Spring Cleaning at Ah Ma's New Place

We were really excited about spending CNY at Ah Ma's spanking new place in Meru. Maybe Peh Peh Jeffery had not moved in all the furniture, or because the house is really very BIG... there is plenty of room for us kids to run around both inside and outside. Nice too that Kor Kor I-Wen and Jeh Jeh I-Lyn live just across and they pop in or we go over almost everyday we were there :) With Toto the dog still at Southern Park, Dee Dee Rowan and I had a splashing great time cleaning up Ah Ma's porch before CNY. Look who's in all the pics?

CNY Reunion in SG



The reunion dinner is usually scheduled the weekend before we leave SG to spend CNY in Klang. We needed 2 tables at Gong Gong & Po Po's kitchen. Po Po would open a smaller table for the kids to sit together. This year, Ashley Jeh Jeh decided to sit with Mummy and the other adults. And Daddy came over to feed me. He was the oldest KID!!
