Guess my latest favourite character

Gossiping Lunch

Yupe ^^ After the small gathering at Chris' house, we decided to have another one, this time asking Joanne and Renee to join us.

So I "threw" daddy and Little DinoEgg 1 side n went off~ Joanne was kind enough to aloow Joirene and me hitch a ride with her. It started to pour while on the way to town, best part is 3 women in the car and have no idea how to go into Mellenia Walk car park. The down pour did not help coz it blurred the windows with the water thus lowering our vision. I do not drive so I am forgivable kekeke~ the other 2 ladies... hmm... no comments wahahhaa~

Before long, we finally made it to TCC, Chris n Renee+Mark+Issac are already there. Too bad Renee could only stay for like 20mins before rushing off to her next family gathering. Well, bonus point is we get to meet Issac~ this handsome little fella is really a charmer.

Cannot believe that Chris & Joirene realy bought photos to show us! I'd rather not see these photos, too embarassing kekeke~ We had a fun time remembering those school days events while flipping thru them.

Hunger n thirsty finally kicks in so we put the photos away n order our lunch. Then its catching up on each other's current life. Topic stayed on our kids; how to discipline, teach n treat these rascals. We have so much things to talk about n share. Soon time passes very quickly and we have to part. Nevertheless, I believe we shall meet up again!

Thanks for the great time ladies!

Ride the Hippo

Me, May & Catherine decided bring the kids for a ride on the Hippo to see the Christmas lighting.

Before the ride, me & Catherine brought the kids to 313@Somerset to take a photo with the Santa ^^ These photos are taken while waiting for Santa to come back from his dinner =.=

After popping by the Ducktour office at Orchard (as above photo) we headed off to Burger King to rest, munch some food n wait for May & Ervin and the time to pass. This is because our tour is starting at 10.30pm n its only 8.30pm! Thank god for fast food restaurant!

As usual, Little DinoEgg starts to monkey around *sigh* Cannot sit still, must make funny faces n fidget etc.

We finally waited till 10.30pm and got on the bus 15mins later. Little DinoEgg is clearly very excited! However when the bus travel fm the colorful Orchard road n turn into the quiet n dark Penang road n travel on Somerset road he got slightly bored. He just sat on the seat n enjoy the breeze n errmmm... street lamps? Why did we travel on this roads? Coz we are trying to get to the other end of Orchard road, where the lights n decorations started. Here are the pictures taken from high up in the Hippo~

It was suppose to be an hour's ride but we hit a traffic jam not long after we turn into Orchard road :(

Look at the traffic!

Little DinoEgg was obviously BORED!

It turned out that traffic police are controlling the traffic. They are letting the cars from the other road turning into Orchard road n stopping the traffic from this side from moving. We thought it will only last like 5mins, but turned out they stopped the traffic for half and hour or so! Someone got impatient n honk, others head n followed suit. In no time drivers are honking in protest~ Well this only enable us to move like 100m before we are stucked again.

By the time we ended the tour its already 12 midnite! Daddy was getting worried n called a few times, but I was too engross in everything to notice the call, plus it was so noisy. We took a train back coz the traffic is still horrandous n not sensible to hop on a cab then. When we reach our town, we took a cab n zoom home, with an exhausted Little DinoEgg.

Look a Real Santa~

I have always wanted to let Little DinoEgg see a real Santa, not through the pictures and tv. This December I found some Santas but was not satisfied with them; too tall, too fake, too skinny n the one at Tampine1 is too punk!

I finally found one at 313@Somerset Yippeee!!! So bought Little DinoEgg there, rope in Catherine and Charlotte too hehehe~ We queue up for about 30mins, 1st in queue n got a photo with the merry cheerful Santa and his Santarina.

1st Log Cake

Its Christmas Eve and I thought I'd buy a log cake to sort of celebrate Christmas.

This mini log cake is from Polar Puffs & Cakes, its very tasty and Little DinoEgg enjoy it very much. And if he enjoy it, that usually means the cake is really yummy coz he is very particular and picky on cakes :P

Christmas Goodie 2009

This year I was too busy and caught up with work that I did not prepare early for the Christmas gifts for Little DinoEgg's classmates and teachers :( So have to grab some gifts from the local store. Not to my liking coz its too common, but I have to make do with it. Next year! I will get them ready early!

For the teachers

For the classmates

Farmer, Fox, Bird & the Cookie by Act 3

SYNOPSIS
In this delightful tale, Farmer, Fox and Bird are quarrelling over one delicious Cookie. What will they do so that all of them will be able to eat the Cookie and be happy? Come, help them trust one another and be friends!

Children will also discover how a whole can be split into halves and quarters.

A little Sparrow is very thirsty and needs to raise the water level in a narrow jar so he can drink from it. What can he do?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Yupe, we are going to watch Farmer, Fox, Bird and the Cookie Plus other stories with Tick, Tack, Tock by ACT 3 Theatrics, and we are watching with Noel+Chloe, Catherine+Charlotte and Catherine's colleague and her daughter.

We arranged to meet Noel+Chloe at Esplanade and go for the play first then lunch together. When we went up to the theatre we saw they set up a table selling some books. And so coincidentally they were selling a book; The Leaf Named Nip Who Flipped, which I was hesitatng to buy for Little DinoEgg. Today they are selling slightly cheaper (I think), plus they give us a free tee. On top of that, the author Mr R Chandran was there and we were able to get the book autographed by him~ You can see more on the book bySYNOPSIS
the illustrator Mr Paul Koh.

This is Little DinoEgg's 2nd Tick Tack Tock play, and he enjoy this better then the last one as he understands the play since he was 2yrs+ when he went for the 1st play. He is able to interact with the performers when they prompt a questions.

And since its a free sitting performance, we decided to sit at the back coz we do not want to block other kids' view, plus I'd rather our kids stand then sitting down coz I do not think its a "sit-down" performance. And I was right ^^ The 4 kids were so engrossed in the play that they ended up standing up. Little DinoEgg even shouted out at the girl in front who is blocking him "Hey! I cannot see!" Opppsss... haha very rude... but he just shouted out, I couldn't stop him on time.

45mins later, we left the place with 3 happy kids. We were walking n came upon Cool Bear Workstation, all 3 kids were attracted by the bears at the window n rushed there to "wow" at the bears. Little DinoEgg even request me to take a photo of him with the doctor bear.

Then we try to get the 3 kids to take photo together... And it turned out like this... dunno what is Charlotte angry about :S

We parted ways with Noel+Chloe and went for shopping. However it was so crowded and Little DinoEgg is starting to get cranky, we decided to go home within 10mins from putting our feet into the shopping mall.

Me n Da Yee~

Decided to go to Tampines1 for dinner with Catherine+family coz I wanted go to sis' push cart to let Little DinoEgg try out a few pairs of shoes. His SeeKaiRun shoes are getting smaller n I do not like the shoes that are sold locally in stores.

Too bad sis does not have SeeKaiRun shoes at her push cart, but nevertheless, it does not mean we cannot take a photo together~
