Looking forward to our trip!

We had finally booked our trip 2 weeks back!  We will be flying on 17 Feb and back on 26 Feb! Sounds like we'll be gone for 2 weeks huh? By the time am back to work, it's already 1st March!!

I really hope we can enjoy ourselves this time, been a long time since we go for a long holiday, looks like the last REAL holiday was to Hong Kong with Ashley when she's only 23mths old & Adwin in my tummy! haha...

This time we will be going to Taiwan for 8 days + 2 days free @ Hong Kong.  But we had upgraded the stay in Hong Kong to be @ Disney Hollywood Hotel, as the free hotel given was too out of way for us, @ New Territories!  So we decided to let the kids enjoy themselves @ Disney, don't think they will enjoy Taiwan as much as we would! :p

Oh yes, we had managed to persuade the kids to have their Flu vaccinations before the trip! And it's a good chance for me to weigh my kids again! hahaha...
Ashley --> 17.9kg ** i think she did put on some weight.. haha...
Adwin --> 13.9kg  ** no gain no loss...

The kids are addicted to iPhone!

Since we switched both our phones to iPhones, the kids had been playing games on them. And adwin is so smart to be able to navigate it himself. Knowing where to look for photos, which icons for what favorite games they liked! And WL is saying iPhone is so user-friendly that even a 2 year old knows how to operate without us teaching him!

I was really surprised he knows how to unlock the phone! Initially I did not set the password lock for it but since I saw him unlocking my phone, I had no choice but to set a password lock for it!

The kids are so smart as to know which options to select when they are playing the games! I hope our iPhones are sufficient to keep them entertained during our 10 days trip to Taiwan and hong kong!

Planning for a trip

We had been talking about going for a trip before adwin goes to the childcare since last nov, and finally trying to make this come true soon!

We were thinking of going to Taiwan just after our CNY celebration but somehow WL thought the kids will enjoy better if we go for Disneyland in HK! But after comparing the prices and looking around on the available dates for departure we still come back to trip to Taiwan!

Hope we can confirm the trip by this weekend and shall look forward to the departure in mid mar! :)

Better bonding with daddy

Adwin had been taken care of by WL since mid Dec will now. it's pretty obvious that adwin is building a better bonding with his daddy. Previously when I scold him, he would still insist I comfort him and carry him but recently he knows to look for his daddy after my scoldings! Haha... And there were a few occasion where I did not attend to his requests immediately, he would goes "我去找爸爸!" haha...

Auntie's wedding

The kids attended my sis-in-law wedding's the past weekend.  And initially had intended to ask the kids to be her flower girl and page boy, but WL was really afraid they would get frightened by the audience @ the dinner, so decided not to try and spoilt the grand event.

But, my sis-in-law was nice to let them try out @ her ROM reception, just before the dinner @ Swissotel Merchant Court Hotel.

The kids looks so nice right?!.. hahaha...

Ashley bathing herself

Since Ashley started K1, the teachers in the childcare had been training her to bath herself. Only from last Monday she requested to bath herself at home too, of cos being a Kiasu mummy, I actually monitor her in the bathroom making sure she really do a clean job! And suddenly I feel she had really grow up! My little girl no longer needs me to bath her!! A bit sad but I guess that's sign of her growing up!! :)

Our Xmas 2009

We did nothing special this Christmas, considering it's a long weekend for us. As mummy did not have to work on Xmas eve already, only jiejie had Xmas party in childcare in the morning, and she was off from 1pm onwards. So we went to 313 Somerset for some shopping & look around, trying to get some Xmas mood! hehe... And daddy bought the most expensive coffee from the Blue Mountain Cafe... but was very disappointed!! hahaha... And we had fried prawn noodle & the curry scissor rice from the Food Republic food court for dinner... :)

And for Xmas, we went for the movie, Alvin & the Chipmunks 2 @ Kallang Leisure park!! Had japanese food for lunch, and popcorn during the movie... And guess what we had for dinner?? Mummy & daddy went old kallang airport & take away spaghetti & porridge for dinner... No big feast for our Xmas! :( But we had lots of presents!! Hope it's Xmas everyday! haha...

Orchard Rd on Xmas Eve.. with all the winning Reindeers dress up! but, had missed take the shot for #1! hahaha...

Bottle Tree after Orchard road...

Opening presents on Xmas day...

Alvin & the Chipmunks 2

We caught Alvin & the Chipmunks 2 on Christmas day @ Kallang Leisure Park... And now my 2 kids are fans of the Chipmunks!! haha... But I thought this is a good movie... :p

Adwin is 2!!

We celebrated Adwin's 2nd birthday the last Saturday.  Had booked the 3D2N stay @ Costa Sands @ downtown east 3 months back!! Haha... Thought the kids enjoyed themselves very much during Ashley's birthday stay too, so might as well let the kids enjoy!!  And we went Wild Wild Wet for 2 days, Friday & Saturday & you can see how tanned my 2 kids are!!  But they had a super great time there!!

We had place an order from Fruit Paradise, Mango Tart for his birthday, wanting to try something different, but were very disappointed during my collection @ Tampines 1!!  When I passed them my "order form" (which had no numbers on the form, no place of collection indicated, no payment mode written on it!!) the lady say, we do not have this order form with us!! And we have no tart available for us!!  I reached Fruit Paradise @ 610pm, & our dinner reservation was 645pm @ UDMC Long beach!!  OMG... The lady says they will rush out the tart NOW, which took like 20mins, as 2 chefs were working on it.  The tart was still very nice when we had it, but was disappointed with the order.  And, the wordings was also wrong, so took some time to fix it... we had requested "HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY ADWIN" & guess what they put??!! "happy 22ND birthday adwin" OMG... my son suddenly turns 22!!! hahaha...

Anyway, here's some pictures to share... Oh yes.. the pics were taken by my new Canon Powershot!!  Hope to be able to capture MORE pics with this! :D
