My little girl just lit up my day. She saw me and called out "Hmmm.... Mak, Hmmmm... Mak".

Lovely pair of sisters who are learning to share. So glad they have each other...



Peek-a-boo!! Who is that?



Spiderman in making? Perhaps not...


Been bringing my kids outdoor more often these days and they are loving it to bits. I will try to make it a point to take them to the playground downstairs when I'm home from work early. It's a pity the pair of swings at our playground downstairs were removed during the recent upgrading. Yee Ruu really enjoys the swinging motion and often chuckle with delight. Nevertheless, we still get our "swing fix" at the playground near the private estates at mum's.


Hope by letting the kids have more outdoor experience, Yee Ruu in particularly, will have a better motor-skill development. Looking forward to seeing her climbing the ladders and sliding down the slides on her own soon.

It was so drama during the weekend of Grandma Chang's birthday. We visited her place as usual in the morning and looking forward to a fun-filled day ahead, our excited Yee Sinn got so carried away that she fell off the sofa. She landed on the floor with a nasty cut on her lips. Unfortunately, the cut went right through her lower lips to her chin. She had to be rushed to the nearest A&E (NUH) to have them stitched up.


X-Rays were taken and the necessary stuffs done to ensure that there wasn't any other unexpected broken bones etc. She was sedated before given 7 stitches. Really hope there will not be any ugly scars on her face.

Kids being kids sure picked themselves up pretty fast. Yee Sinn was up and about the day after and was well enough for school the next day. Oh well, we didn't want to make a big fuss over her fall so we let her go ahead with her usual activities.

The picture above is Yee Sinn with her best friend at school. They even made a pac to wear the same shirt that Monday morning. Her chin is still swollen and thank goodness her wound isn't so noticable.



We had a follow-up with NUH dental clinic 2 weeks after. We had to go to the dental clinic as the wound was within her oral cavity. The pediatirc dentists did a check and to my relief, the wound healed quite well. The stitches on her lips have been dissolved while those on her chin will take a couple of days more. I also got the dentist to give Yee Sinn a check on her teeth. They let her wear a kiddy sun glass (which I think was quite cool) and gave her teeth a good polish. They were generally pleased with her oral hygiene. They ended her trip to the dental clinic with stickers and balloons.

We went for a few shows this month. We brought Yee Sinn to watch "Pluck: Muscial Arson" last week. It was a fun comedy muscial by a string trio. They pieces they played were classical pieces from Bach, Ravel, Vivaldi etc. It was so funny that our Yee Sinn nearly fell off her chair laughing. There were funny scenes such as having a violinist playing so fast that his violin caught fire.


It was a good way to introduce Yee Sinn to more muscial concerts in future.



We also brought her to watch a theatre performance at Fusionopolis today. It was Eric Carle's A Hungry Caterpillar and other stories. It was a puppetry performance that made very clever use of light and props. Their teamwork was amazing. What was interesting was the Q&A after the performance where the stage crew came out and shared some tricks they used during the shows.

The toys we rented were dued to be returned. We decided to return the trike cos Yee Sinn only used it a couple of times. As for the exersaucer, we decided to rent another model (this time a pink one) for another month as Yee Ruu seemed interested in it. It can be really useful when we have some errands to do in the house and the baby needs to be kept occupied.


Goodbye trike! Hello Pinky Exersaucer!
