astro,
true. snacks should be given at specific timing. not the whole day machiam buffet lah...
you dun have to starve teng. but you can give him in healthier versions. then slightly lesser amount or at least dun increase the amount if you feel it is excessive

Leia belongs to the single eyelid elite gang as Seth
Her mummy too. err..her daddy..small eyes with hidden double eyelid. so we are the Small Eyes family
Angel
poor thing, hope u are feeling better today!
hey im so happy we enjoyed ourselves, i shall organise another gathering in another place
my mum was asking me how come we meet so often?
Fion
the biggest difference is Vanda's hair, grown very fast. hey i happened to see Vanda long lashes that curls up, no need eyelash perm or extension next time.
leia a bit slow in warming up, she only became more daring nearing the end of the 'party'.
brought leia for pneumo jab just now, her face became tense when we were in doc's room. she was looking at me over my mum's shoulder. once doc pull down her pants, she started crying away...poor gal, but she's happily playing at aunt's place now.
we went to top up petrol and wash car just now, she was so afraid when she saw the petrol uncle, washer uncle outside the car, cried for us to carry her, very timid gal.
SQ
Happy Birthday to YE!!!!!!!!!

Astro: I wanted to tell u that i think kinder has pay off liao.. this afternoon when we were at vivo, they had this wedding show on ad they started to play this background music with a lot of drums sound in it. When rae heard the drum beats, she started to wave her hands,shake her legs and twist her body like trying to dance in her stroller. I think all the drums that she has been exposed at kinder is having an effect on her liao.
BTW: i didn;t really like the lesson today, still think shauna is better.

star, kinder really has effect on anthea too. now when i sing the "the stars is making music" song, she will put her finger at her ears and indicate "listen". we always play the kinder CD in the car and she will listen to it attentively and sometimes even "dance" to it! kinder is GOOD!
oh yes, we bought the "kinder ball" today. she loves it!!!

$388 is the agent fee. maid's salary is $350 (must work in sunday). if i wish to change maid, 1 time replacement fee is $198. can only replace twice in a yr. ya i think dan has a few outlets.
i dun really feel assured, prefer sporean to service.
superservant..agent fee is $580 inclusive of insurance, medical checkup, + 4 free replacement, sounds good.
edde
wow teach K2 kids, that will be fun, im sure it will be a total new experience for you and u'll enjoy it! yeh!
hahhaha ark lang bo da,.....

YY,
I brought 2 presents, #8 & #9. Don't know who got the other pressie. #11 is yours ah? So 'qiao'. Reyes' the one who got it. Reyden picked Germaine's pressie.
Reyden's like a Humpty Dumpty & he has great falls every few days, that's why he's so hardy now.
Maybe cos this bad mummy let them fall too much liao so they became scared & learnt how to balance & walk faster.
Fion,
Vanda's really of very good size since birth leh.
starfruit,
oh, good that Rae drinks & still eats well. RR will never finish their dinner if I give them mid day milk. And I'll feel so sad after putting in effort to cook for them daily & they don't finish so rather sacrifice milk for food.

I'm so happy today, maid's off & I managed to spend time bonding with Reyden.
We brought them swimming this morning then left Reyes at home with hubby & brought Reyden out for shopping. Came back home & brought both out for dinner.
I realised at the end of the day that he's really going thru the separation anxiety stage now cos he started crying whenever my mum or me walked away. So it's not the maid ...

SQ: my muffins are a success... soft and moist.. just nice.. hey i know how to prevent ur bottom from buring liao... u line ur silicon trays with aluminium cups (those for muffins) or the paper cups, this will prevent the bottom from burning cos no direct contact to the trays. I tried one batch with the cups and one w/o, those w/o turned really dark at the bottomn.
irin
i think your pressies became #9 and #10 if i didnt remember wrongly...when i was about to write the numbers, i realised there's another un-numbered pressie before yours
Michelle
u went alone to Kinder or?
aiya daddies are like tat, usually very practical, but my hubby was the one who suggested kitchen set which surprises me, he saw leia opening and closing drawers all the time, so he assume she will like it.

Re: Kinder
Hmm, I do think it helps somewhat. At least now, when I say "toys away" YT will keep her toys most of the time. Have to hand it to her to keep. Then, she also get to play with all those musical instruments which she otherwise wouldn't have a chance to play with. She used to be very afraid of going to new places. Will become a rock in a new place but now no more le. And she is no longer shy about strangers. At least in class lar. She can go and sit near other parents even during the make up class where none of the people are familiar. I dunno why she likes to go and sit with other people though??? I do think it gives them some exposure to social life etc. etc. Of course our hb would say, can also do ourselves wat, all the things they do but think about it, if never pay that money, will we really do it ourselves? Same as exercise at home. Can do yoga at home also, but never pay the money to go to class, how many people actually have the discipline to do it at home???
Edde,
Good to see Anthea back in class. Wah, she is certainly excited after a long absence!
Starfruit,
You din get anything from the colette sales? I got myself a pair of shoes and also a pair for YT.
HJ,
Dun think I have seen Elisha in person but I thought I remember seeing her pics in a blog? You do blog online right?

wow, ellie is ex! Better don't let my maid talk to her then. I'm only paying her $320 plus off.
I got another of the shape sorter/puzzle (farm animals) for RR & they like it too. They look so surprised whenever there's sound coming from it.
Ya, they shared your present by hammering each other with the hammer.
But ok lah, at least they are 'playing' with it.
pinkpink,
oh, mine became #9 & #10 ah? Don't know the other one land up where.

that's what my hubby says of Teng too! He asked "the boy who's double of their size also Mar baby ah? It's the 13kg boy you were telling me about?" I was thinking hard who he's referring to cos Jaylen not there mah till he mentioned the mum in red. Oh, it's Teng he's talking about.

Irin: ex ah?! ops.. ehh. i thought ellie is considered on the low end liao leh.. coz i know got pple pay their maids.. $400 plus one leh..
so fun! hammering at one another.... hey. reyes very dianty leh.. i think she captivated by me liao... keeps staring at me.. hahahahah! *thick skinned*.. i know lah.. she never saw someone as gigantic before right?!

Mejo: no, no time i had to rush off again after class lah. I saw the colette sales on my way up to class in the morning, let Rae try on a pair of maroon mary jane, quite sweet, going at $16.90, didn;t get in the end lor. How much was the shoes u bought?
i wanted to ask u during class how much i need to pay u for the plants, but i forgot..paisay leh.
Re: Kinder
I think the effect from the class is quite subtle, i feel that now Rae is more tune to music esp instruments.. when she hears an instrument, i can see her looking for it and listening, this is very good leh, i like, she has become sensitive to music and rythmn... good lah. And i think all the repetition in class works as well.. like doing similar things weeks after weeks, same songs for 8 lessons etc. Our babies at this age needs this sort of repeating in order to absorb.

star: miser commented the kinder lesson is too fast.. coz he says teng half the time.. fiddling with the things first.. never really catch up with the ryhtmn kinder was trying to instill in them.. i told him. not true..coz other bbs quite ok.. only teng.. like to 'glance' and 'stare' at the instruments then to play with them
Starfruit,
The maroon mary jane is nice but only got that size left and is just right for YT's feet now so I din buy cuz she will outgrow very fast. I bought one pair of purple and white shoe at $12.90 for YT. Not very nice in looks but is soft and comfy and easy to put on. My own pair is only $10 which I like a lot. It is those chinese embroidery cloth type with chinese knot button. I think it is a steal at $10. But I hope it won't cut into my feet or anything cuz I'm alone holding YT and only managed to put on one shoe to try with socks on. YT fell asleep while I'm choosing the shoes, hee hee.

Eh, the plants I haven't got them yet. So dunno how much you should pay. I only know the stricta and fuego is $6 and $3 respectively. Third plant I'll go there and see how cuz he din list Ionantha Druid as a single plant for sale. So I'm thinking of going and see what's nice then buy. Under $10 for the 3rd plant is okay right?

star: ehh.. i think u are the ONLY one who is telling me that..99.9% of the time.. pple expressed shock at how big size he is.. for an approaching 15 mths.. he looks like 3 years old liao, dr ong said.. and i always happen to hear the weights of the older kids at Dr ong/my PD's place.. they are still lighter than him! u tell me how? he is heavy lor.. hence his gross motor is slightly clumsy.. sian .. when he slims down.. i give u a treat.. ya?
