Thanks Mdm Leong for your Xmas gift ..... hmmm consider my 1st xmas gift this year!  Met up with Dearie at MIL's shop and had dinner there before we go over to Ikea. 

Always wanna go over cos I wanted to buy a storage cupboard to store TT's toys and books.  Since my sofa bed is with mum already I bought a Poang chair months ago and the remaining space is always making me to think what I should do with it.

Went to the children section to take a look cos TT's stuffs is always on my mind.... saw this storage cupboard which caught my eyes ... too bad they didnt have any walnut color to match my other furniture.

Dearie started to fix it up after he had his shower ..... TT being curious also help out *LOL* see how the Dad & Dottie work together!  Nice cupboard I like it ..... and this shall be TT's xmas gift from us to her.

We didnt meet up for Xmas gathering for I think 2 years .... dunno why we didn't organise it for the past 2 years ... We had it during 2006 hahaha that one is real fun .... we met up at PP Sakura and after our brunch ... we all headed to PP to buy xmas gift on the spot .... very fun!  And when we headed home we have 7 ppl in the car which Chloe drove hahaha .... all squeeze!

This year we met up at With a pinch of salt located at Tg Katong Road .. the only place which I feel is convenient for all of us.  Wanted to go Dempsey but kinda out of the way for everyone.  The cafe is being booked by some church cell group ... so we make ourselves comfy having an outside seats instead.  Lucky the weather is very good and windy too so that Nat Nat and TT won't feel hot. The Boss happen to be Ah Ghor's friend .... the service of one particular waitress is very bad her service sucks but we didn't wanna complain about it cos after all is a happy occasion.

We have our gift exchange after our brunch ..... and all of us have enjoyed the session!  Headed to PP and grab the very last xmas gift that we need to buy before heading back home to rest.  Dearie napped straight away leaving TT & I watching TV .... at around 7 Dearie left to attend a wedding ... i didn;t go cos I dunno this friend of his.  So I cook TT porridge using the braised chicken that my MIL cook while I have the left over bee hoon.

I fell asleep at around 11pm while TT is lying beside me singing alone .... but I could hear that she ran out when she heard Dearie opening the door .....

My forum Jan 08 mummies organised a birthday bash so I join in the fun too.  Would like to thanks to all mummies to make this birthday bash a successful one! 

I took a cab to Dempsey Road with TT cos Dearie have RT thats why he can't join us.  When we reached there most of the mummies are all waiting outside of Go Go Bambini they claimed that we didn't produce name list so we have to wait outside.  Lucky Steph have the name list with her heehee hmmm 1st impression not so good already.....

We are given around 15-20mins to play at the playscape .... I follow TT throughout ... not that I scare she will fall .. I scare she bully others *LOL*  So I follow her throughout and some obstacle I feel is kinda difficult for me cos I am fat and clumsy *LOL*

After that we are asked to go to the room which is very small and all kids crowd around to play games.  Went back to the playscape again after the games which lasted less than 10mins so the party host can set up the party food for the kids.  This time I try not to go with TT and let her play on her own while I watch her from below cos I am so tired after following her!

Another break time is snack time for our kiddos ..... they provide nuggets, hotdog, fries, pop corn and some salad for them.  And I gotta finished what TT's leftover.  We have a nice big cake but we didn't even have a chance to take with the cake at all and no candles is put on it .... feel like the party host is rushing and wanna quickly get over done with attitude!  Service is not good.  But I have very nice company with me .... so ya mummies and babies you all rocks!

Dearie came picking us up and we make a trip to King Albert Park to reserve slot for TT's birthday and so surprise they still have lotsa slots available!  Reserved it since we need not pay any deposit yet.  Headed to City Square Mall - Singapore 1st Eco-Mall for shopping since is newly open.  Get to know our Franco have a shop there too when we walked around bought some Xmas present from Metro and just spend $30 in any shop to get a free $2.50 parking free!  Nice place with lotsa restaurant too will go back again sometime next week!

We have a teambuilding workshop to attend at CC ... TT is with us too hahah she also part of our team *LOL*  I brought coloring book and colour pencil to keep her entertained so that we can continue with our work.

We are being split into groups to do some discussion ... we do have fun there!  Lunch is Pizza from pizza hut.  Quite a long time since we have pizza .... TT dun like to eat so I have to buy her fried mee.  Lately I feel that she have a change in her appetite .... ask for more milk but didn't finish what is given .... and if I make in smaller bottle she dun have enough! 

She ate a bit of the fried mee and she didn't want it anymore .... so I packed back the fried mee and headed to my parent's place. 



Went over to visit Mama cos usually we will meet up on Sat morning or afternoon and she did called me during the workshop and asked where am I cos she is at Eunos Market having lunch wanted to come over my place.  Unfortunately we are not at home so we popped by her place before going to Amy's younger boy 2nd birthday.

This year Amy's boy Jester theme is Mickey Mouse theme ... is also a theme that I wanted to have for TT, more or less is influence by Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

Beside Jester's birthday is also Brenda's birthday ... Amy got her 3 pcs of cake from polar is cute!  Food is cook by her Dad ... his Dad can cook very well .... and they bought a pot of Tom Yum Soup from Jalan Besah which cost $50 and it comes with fried fish which make it so yummy!  Thumbs up!

After sending God-ma back home ... we headed to Bishan to visit Ah Ma .... my MIL told me that Ah Ma did not sleep the whole night and poor small Aunt & Uncle have to stay up to look after her.  Is so hard on them cos they have to tend the shop and look after Ah Ma at the same time.  Heard that Ah Ma kept on talking in the night and kept saying the pills drop on the floor wanna pick it up. 

Really hope Ah Ma get well soon ..... Big Aunt, Ah Ghor, Ah Gu and my MIL is there too .... Big Aunt and MIL wanna stay there to look after while Small Aunt and Uncle can get some rest but Small Aunt want them to go back and rest and say GSS is back from Taiwan she can help in the night too.  So we send Big Aunt and MIL back home ..... very tired day we have and tomorrow we still have a long day to go.......

Thursday - 10 Dec 09

We are planning TT's 2nd birthday .... so we decided to go Mcdonald to reserved the dates first in case is fully booked!  Left my phone in the bag and I was in the room watching TV cos usually Dearie won't be back so soon cos he have his RT today.  We wanted to go after his RT so we can have Mcdonald for dinner at the same time.

He came back at 7+pm and I was a little surprise when he rstepped in he asked me why I didn't pick up his call.  Told him I left the phone inside the bag ... he thought I am napping so he came back without trying to call home.

Ended up we had dinner from the market .... at night still have a stall selling fried bee hoon .... had that for dinner.  Thanks to Dearie whom bought watermelon soya bean milk for me from Mr Bean.  Yummy!  Guess that we can only go tomorrow since we are sending Coco to the airport.

Maybe I am busy looking after my TT cos she is running around and is quite crampy so we just try to stick to one corner.  Left the place and head to United Square for Barney Show.


Hahaha yes BARNEY ...... my husband dun really like Barney cos he say he speaking is not really clear but he won't denied that the songs and programme is good!  My SIL's company is doing the A&P for the show thanks for letting us know about the show.
