Daryl

Teacher Joyce smsed me yesterday night asking me for some of Daryl's baby photos. As I don't have them in hard copy, I asked whether I can email the soft copies to her. She said yes. Then my next question is, how many do you need? She replied that she needs at least 5. So I was cracking my head on how to choose 5 photos out of the thousands that I have. Then it hit me... I can choose them based on every 6 months of his life. So here are my selections...





















Day 0





















6 months old





















1 year old



























1.5 years old





















2 years old





















2.5 years old





















3 years old





















3.5 years old



























4 years old



























4.5 years old
















5 years old



























5.5 years old



























6 years old

Looking through those photos brings back lots & lots of memories!! Time really flies... Soon, my baby is going to graduate from K2 already...

Loved

Kel & I had a huge fight on Tue, which resulted in a cold war between the 2 of us these 2 days. In addition, he had not been home early these 2 nights. It could be coz of work, or he was trying to avoid me. Either way, I guessed that the kids could sense the tension between the 2 of us. While I was taking my shower after settling the kids & the housework just now, the kids drew these pics for me.

Dawn's pic. The 1st 2 represents flowers & the 3rd pic is a heart shaped love for me.

They are soooooo sweet that it brought tears to my eyes. At least I know that I am loved by my kids.

Princess Dawn Helping Out Again

Dawn had been helping me to take out the laundry from the washer after it's washed these days. Today is no exception. The only 'difference' is that she asked me to take pics of her when she's taking out the laundry. :p

Dawn Singing "Tang Guo Yuan"

Dawn's class got a new Chinese teacher recently - Teacher Gu. She had been teaching Dawn's class some new songs. This song is 1 of the songs which Dawn likes to sing... a lot...

Just now, we were at Parkway Parade's basement foodcourt having our dinner. While waiting for Kel to come back with our food, I managed to 'persuade' Dawn to sing this song so that I can finally record it. :p

Princess Dawn Helping Out

I had been doing the housework eversince Asty left. As today is a Sat, I had tons of housework to do, among them, the laundry.

When the laundry was done, I went to take the clothes out from the washer so that I could hang them out to dry. For some reason, Dawn decided to help me out by taking out the clothes from the washer. She was wearing the 'crown' from Daryl's Mac birthday party when she was helping me out. As she looks so cute doing so, I can't resist taking pics. :p











































































































































































































































As the pail is not able to hold all the clothes, Dawn actually pressed down on the clothes to try to fit them inside the pail. I am actually very surprised to see that she knows how to do that as I had never taught her that.

Daryl then came in to check on us. When he saw Dawn helping me, he also wants to help out.





















































Now... if only I can get them to do the laundry as well... :p

Dawn's 3rd Lunar Birthday

Dawn's lunar 3rd birthday falls on 14 July this year, 2 days before her actual day. Thus, I decided to bring her out for dinner tonight & have an early birthday celebration for her.

After picking up the kids from school, we went to Parkway for dinner & to buy the birthday cake. For dinner, Dawn chose to go to Swensons. I didn't take any pics during dinner as I was looking after the 2 kids by myself. Kel had gone to the StarHub shop nearby to buy his new handphone as his current 1 is giving him a lot of problems.

When we were done with dinner, Kel is still not back yet. Thus, I asked for the bill so that we can go & look for him instead of waiting for him coz I don't think the kids got that kind of patience. While waiting for the waitress, I took pics of them.













































































































































































































































I love the pics a lot as it shows how loving they are. If only they are that loving ALL the time... :p

After dinner, we bought an ice cream cake from Swensons. Reasons being, they have got the mickey / minnie mouse designs which is Dawn's favourite character & I have a 20% discount voucher for their cakes. In the end, Dawn chose this cake.
















We had to rush home straight away as Swensons had ran out of dry ice (??). Thus, the manager told us that we had to be home soon as the cake would start to melt after 20 minutes. Needless to say that it was a mad rush home.

Once we reached home, Dawn can't wait to eat her cake.



























See how happy she is? P/S, there are only 2 candles on her cake as she only wants 2 candles. When I want to put the 3rd candle on the cake, she threw a huge tantrum. Since she is the birthday gal, I gave in to her wish.

After the photo taking, Kel lighted up the candles. Dawn was so eager to eat her cake that she didn't even wait for us to sing the birthday song & blew out the candles straight away. *faint*

Enjoying the cake.

Happy birthday my darling!! May you grow up to be a healthy, pretty & smart gal!! :)
