Ouch

Today in School, Reia had a nasty fall. According to the teacher, she fell flat into her face.

Total damages

- Upper teeth & the gum was bleeding

- lower lip was cut by her own tooth

which leads to swollen lower lips & Uclers.

Poor girl, What a way to spend her Children's Day!

*Heart-wrenched*

F1 Fever

Last Weekends, Friday to Sunday. Hub went to see the F1 race... so left me and babe planning for our own activies. Since every night the race would end quite late, so i decided to bunk in at my mom's place on Friday night. Yeah! it was great to sleep over at my mom's plc once a while cos that wld means, more ppl to entertain my lit' monster, no need to do housework, no need to worry abt her meals =) fwahaha...

Sat morning both of us woke up ard 8 plus... by then.. sis already bought back breakfast for us! *thumbs up*... after we finished our breakfast, i decided to bring my girl to Pasir Ris Beach. Sad to say, she has yet to visit the Pasir Ris Beach... tsk tsk tsk... so near yet so far... So, i asked my girl to wake up gong gong so that he cld drive us down!!! fwahaha.... anything for his granddaughter, he jumped out from his sleep, gobble down his breakie and off we drove down the beach!

She had so much fun, and Im quite impressed with the playground facilities. They have pretty challenging slides, and many interesting stuff there. Worth gg for a zero-cents thrill!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sunday, back @ my own home, i brought her down to a nearby playground after her nap. And , i chance upon this motor toy car at the basement of PP. Wow... think i will bring her down and play this more often. Her first try and she can manoeuvre fairly alright.. giving the fact that she needs to control the accelerator & the steering wheel...

bought KFC home for dinner and wait for daddy to come home.

US Trip Part 12 - San Francisco

Finally, we were back in SFO. It's time to tour around the City by the Bay! Itinerary all setto by Sis, so we just had to sit back and enjoy great food, great scenary & great shopping!

First Stop - Sis brought us to this yummilicious SzeChuan Restaurant for Lunch! Really delicious, I still can remember the taste of some dishes... *slurp slurp*

After a hearty lunch, off we went to witness one of the most beautiful, and most photographed, bridges in the world - The Golden Gate Bridge.

/*we just had to take all angles of the Golden Gate bridge.*/

/*Let's start walking down the Golden Gate bridge and leave our footprints on it*/

/*YEAH! We have conquered the Golden Gate Bridge*/

Before we left, the fog began to swallow the Bridge....
The fog around the Golden Gate Bridge is called "advection fog." Such fog forms when humid air from the Pacific swoops over the chilly California current. Luckily we managed to snap some really great pix with the bridge before the fog came!

/*can u still see the bridge??*/

The Lit' Terrible 2 Updates

Im gg to blog this in an unstructured manner and pen down whatever it comes across my mind.


Here's the Top Ten List U need to know about her:-

(1) She brushes her teeth on her own before bedtime. Weekdays morning always in a mad rush,
so she dont get to brush her teeth... heh. I think she enjoys eating the toothpaste more.

(2) She's able to feed herself. In good & God-blessed times, she's able to finish her bowl of rice on her own with lit' supervision needed, which allows me to enjoy my own meal. (messy is inevitable)

(3) She's able to complete 3 - 6 pieces of jigsaw puzzles on her own and recite 1 to 10 in English and recognizing them. For colours, she's more into guessing. tsk tsk

(4) She will ask my mom to call me during my working time so that she can talk to me. =)

(5) Reia is a IT Savvy(daddy's good genes). She knows how to unlock my iphone, find the game she wants to play. She knows where to find her Hi-5 and Thomas video clips. Needless to say, she knows how to scroll up and down, flip left and right, Press the volumn up and down and Off my iphone. She's also capable of operating the DVD player which leave me in no choice but to off the DVD power before the player goes on strike!

(6) She's beginning to use more "Please" & "Thank U" in her Speech. The Power of Please & Thank U - Even into the extend when her daddy finished parking his car, she will say loudy... Thank U daddy. When i make milk for her, she will say Thank U mommy. Milk please, Sit please, HP please....... Sweet Sweet Sweet.... U just cant resist when she uses PLEASE.... even u are darn busy, darn tired........Mommy sit down please. U just have to stop whatever u are doing, sit down and play with her.

(7) She's beginning to make conversation with us... FINALLY. not very good thou but that's a great leap.

(8) When i say, Reia , photo time... she will run to the house door and wait for her pix to be taken. In Turn, she will snatch the camera away and ask u to stand at the door so that she could take your pix too.

(9) She's into Hide & Seek game. Always want to hide hide hide.....

(10) When she's gg to do her business, she will suddenly dash into her room, squat down and hide in one corner. If you peek on her, she will say "Go away". Anyways, She refused to tell us she has pooed. She feels purfectly fine with the SHIT on her buttock.

Bonus Track. She can Sing Too.

Zoo Escapade

The Time has come, It's our Once a Year affair -

It's time to say hello again to our Zoo's friends!!

In continuation of celebrating her, becoming 2.

We brought her to zoo last saturday since it's also her Lunar Birthday.

/*see how much she has blossomed*/

To be honest, the main aim to visit the zoo is the Waterpark @ KidzWorld. Reia is more delighted to be drenched by the water than her own sweat!

Din really play long @ the waterpark, the afternoon scorching sun was really fury. Reia even had slight sunburned ard her 2 shoulders.

We thought after the swim cum after her hearty chicken popcorn @ KFC - She would surely catch some nap in her stroller (which we hoped so that we could continue to walk ard the zoo by ourselves) Hell no, This girl still pretty hyper & refused to sit in the stroller. We decided to catch one show but it was simply too crowded even we went half-an-hour earlier then the starting time. In the end, we sat at the Ah-meng cafe to have ice-cream & the homemade ice-lemon tea before heading home.

We ended our zoo escapade @ ard 3pm - A mere 4hrs tiring but fun trip.

Reia's 2nd Birthday Celebration Part 2

Last Saturday was indeed an overwhelming day. Basically the whole pgm schedule ran exactly like last year (strangely, i still remembered all the bits & pieces thou it'd past one Year).

Early in the morning ard 10plus, ah b sent Reia to my mom's plc so that both of us wld be "trouble-free" from the lit' Terrible 2-to-be. After sending her over, we went straight to HV to collect the 2 helium tanks. As Expected, we cldnt find any parking lot, so we just pick the tank and off to AMK Hub to have our Lunchie.

The most anticipated moment was the Birthday cake. Once again, i'd ordered it from the PG. With my expectation lowered than the 1st, i was expecting a Ok, Not-Too-Bad Cake. To my horror, it was really Not Up to my least expectation. I was Dumbfounded! *speechless* At the back of my mind, i was thinking how i could save the cake when i reached home. Im glad i bought the Animal Mashmallows (should have buy more) - It has certainly Up the Classiness of the bday cake. Anyways.... this will be my Last Order from Them!

/*a cake with lots of animals to match the Theme*/

Immediately after we reached home, the production line started to operate. Ah b wld pump all the balloons whilst I tied them up. The whole process started from 3 plus and lasted till 5. It was certainly tiring but fun at the same time. Anything for our lit girl - As i always say, She's the fortunate one.

/*all the decors are proudly sponsored by Ros yiyi & Uncle Tom. This is the 2nd Year that they have kindly sponsored all the party stuff. Caused thus far, She's still the one & only cutest niece they have. fwahahahah */

Not long after, guests began to fill our lit' abode with laughter.

The Highlight of the Day is none other than Singing the birthday song for the Birthday Girl.

Group photos with all the loved ones to capture the beautiful moments

Happy Birthday to my

Reia T

Gugu Germaine &

the beloved Michael Jackson!
