Ya, thanks to Hippo! I got a slight damage of $125 for buying 7 pairs of shoes! Really very very cheap leh. i am soooo happy. Too bad there is very limited selection left. One size one pattern! sigh! dun know whether is good or bad, but at least limit my spending. And also i saw Ecookie & YZ with her family. hahaha! so qiao!
What a happy Sunday.

Jovialz,
Have a good day tmr. Remember to head straight to the children zoo first before Caelen knocks out. Regret that i didn't do that...i tour more than half the zoo then for the children zoo, by then, Dayan ald knock out!!!

hee.. he very sweet and KPO! when i passed him the mickey toy and told him it was from didi, he insisted to put back on didi's "bed", and said "give didi".. haa.. then when the nurse pushed bb back to nursery for injection, he insisted to help to push the bb's bed from my ward all the way to nursery! the nurse also BTH kept laughing, then he din wan to part wi didi at nursery, nurse told him didi wana "oh oh", only then he said bye bye to didi.. haaaa

 

[hippo18]

jovialz, hope u enjoyed ur outting with ur dad! such a special one! =)

jas, i heard from my colleague that the prices were further slashed yday right? so nvm la.. 7 pairs alot liao!! keke..
i showed the kids pics to my mum &amp; grandma.. they were shaking their heads big time.. hahahaha! they "wondered" y their granddaughter so not shy one.. hohohoho...

chersam, great to hear the swell wasnt dat bad! keke.. ur staff left without notice ar?

 

[hippo18]

dodo, aiyooo.. zq is reali so loving.. he's not kpo la! he's showing his love lor.. he must hv been preparing himself to see didi and shower ALL his LOVE! i hope ur earlier worries are unfounded!

 

[ecookie]

morning mummies!

me on leave today!

dodo: YA really look like ZQ esp the eyes. i remember ZQ eyes were like this last time when he was sleeping..

jas: yah really so qiao to see u there! my damage not as kua zhang as the mummies who went hehe. maybe cos last day as jas said, i size i color.. i only got 1 pair for myself n 1 pair for yz. hb was quite disappointed that he cant find any for himself. and stingy him wont buy at retail price. so we are not the croc family yet heheh..

chersam: oh no, sorry to hear that. hope ur co will find a replacement soon and u wont be so stretched out..

 

[ecookie]

jovialz: can i pay on the day itself? pai seh, cos hb not sure if he can make it yet. but me n yz will be there nevertheless!

 

[zhen_zhen]

dodo, your 2 boys are so sweet! looks like zq will be a great kor kor to ya.

 

[chersam]

dodo,
YA really resemble ZQ leh! ZQ so sweet, i tink he will make a good kor kor helpin to look after didi.

jovialz,
let me go back tonite &amp; check with hb if he's comin or not, i then do the transfer k? Coz 13th June he will working nite shift.

hippo &amp; ecookie,
my staff needs to serve 2mths notice but she offset her leave, so still got 1.5mths with me. whether got any replacement really an unknown coz heard tat cutting down headcount. Really very funny hor, i was tinkin to tender next mth, then shld i still takeover fm her or not. sigh!

 

[doobom]

Gd noon Mummies...

Dodo,
CONGRATs... So nice to hear that ZQ so sayang his little didi, he's gonna be a GREAT kor-kor.

You take gd care n rest well.

jovialz,
For sure J and I will be going. But not sure about HB, coz depending on his work schedule.
I will do the transfer for 1 pax soon. Update you again. Thanks.

Gingerleaf,
Hmmm... R u very Busy? U have been quite quiet these few days...

Yeah, I can start counting down to our meetup again.

 

[sypt19]

Congrats dodo! I like didi's size ...

ZQ will be a good brother to his didi

Jas thanks for calling ...but i will be away on that date so cannot join ... got to miss the gathering again

oh so a few mummies went to the sale too ...

[chintz]

Hello mummies!

Dodo, congrats once again. Yan An indeed looks like zq!! Zq is so sweet

re: gathering,
when is the closing date for this? have yet to find out hb's schedule.

 

[karrie]

dodo aiyo yan an so cutey pie lah..!!!

and zq is such a loving brother!!

say are u at TMC? I'm going there to see Dr Tseng about my c-section pain later...mebbe can pop by and visit u

 

[karrie]

thanks hippo for securing such a gd deal

my hb was salivating at the menu. at first he wasn't sure whether he wanted to go, but after i told him these were the mummies who gave mea the cutesy girly clothes (jovialz and hippo) and the glass bottles (twinkle_stars) he said "yah then we must go"...hhehee.

jovialz later i transfer money to u ok.

 

[hippo18]

chersam, ya.. i rem u said u were considering leaving ur job.. since ur staff is leaving, u tink u wana stay on and take over in the event dat thr's no replacement? will dat be overwhelming for you? gotta consider all the factors ba.. =)

karrie, ha! dun mention la silly gal.. u &amp; ur hb are so sweet.. keke.. anyway i got the deal cos my fren is the GM of CC. haha.. i sms-ed her to ask for for any discounts and the reduction in no. of pax.. and it helps dat she loves adri lots lots.. haha!
ur c-sect wound still painful? u gotta take care and just listen to wat the gynae says.. i hope itz nothing serious!

Cm, but i heard from my colleague that if u went on the 1st day, they were giving out goodies just like dat for pple who buy any amount right? hee...

chintz, i tink jovialz gotta pay by wed to secure the place and reservations.. so maybe gotta let her know tmro?

 

[chintz]

thanks hippo!

 

[sypt19]

HIPPO ....... NO NO NO NO NO is it ... DUn have ...sobsob .. keke maybe in the morning ???

 

[vivphua]

Jovialz,
I will confirm with my hubby again... let me know how they charge for my 6 yr old before I transfer... Thanks. By the way, when is the dateline to let you know?

 

[hippo18]

hi hi mummies!

jovialz is out on her fun trip to the zoo! keke..

ok, here's my take on the gathering..

<font size="+1"><font color="0000ff">the deadline will be by tomorrow evening 26/5. Of cos all other mummies who wana join us after the deadline of 26th May is OKAY! But appreciate if all can confirm early in order to see if we are able to meet the requirements of 25 pax. </font></font>

<font size="+1"><font color="aa00aa">for mummies who have committed to come for the gathering, we need your kind understanding to transfer the money to Jovialz 1st as she has to make a deposit of 1/2 the final bill in order to secure the booking. =)

as this is a private function unlike the previous ones we had so far (e.g HRC, Penang Place, Merchant Court Hotel), mummies who have paid and confirm will not be able to get a refund. This is cos Coffee Club will still charge us for minimum 25 pax. However, if the total turn-out is more than 25 pax, then i'm sure jovialz can refund la... =)</font></font>

 

[chersam]

hippo,
so the GM of CC ur fren ah? no wonder such gd deal u have. heee
Ya, u can understand my feelin hor. just when i'm considerin to leave my job then this news break out. I'm ok to take over her job, just tat the pple here really terrible man. And also the staff benefits, not to mention lah.

 

[vivphua]

Hippo,
Can I know how much should I transfer for my 6 year old child? Any child rates or same as adult?

 

[hippo18]

chersam, ya.. actuali she's my aunt's fren la but she's machiam my aunt also lor cos my grandma treats her like her daughter.. haha..

totally understand how u feel.. i was lucky to get out of my prev shithole though i missed the pple alot but apparently some "new" pple are creating hell so every1 is considering a move too..
u weigh the pros &amp; cons la.. if the pple are not nice and environment is not conducive then there's no point to stay too.. u wun be efficient and no job-satisfaction lo..

petit_gars, i am not too sure of tis cos i tink they will be replying to jovialz on this. let me check with jovialz ar... =)

 

[maisymouse]

DoDo,

Congrats on the birth of YA! He is such a chubby baby.

Jas,

Sorry, can't join you ladies for the gathering cos my girl has class on sats.

 

[tiffany_seah]

CONGRATS. Yan An looks so handsome, just like korkor. Have plenty rest and take good care.

Re: Gathering

[junniezz]

cm.. crocs sale.. as i told u i alr applied leave early last wk intend to 'cheong' on 22/5 once it starts, who knws end up i camping @ hospital w zann, hiaz.. anyway, my receptionist called me when she went 2nd day, managed grapped a pair of heel for me!

gingerleaf, glad to hear lyn is ok now...

todds/mummies who r sick, pls take care.

 

[junniezz]

re zann.. thks mummies 4ur well wishes. we rcvd phone call fm teacher saying she vomitted in the schl bus on way to farm excursion last thurs. daddy got to go all the way to sembawang to pick her back. she vomitted many times on same day despite go GP 2x + developed fever, so no choice, hb sent us &amp; i admitted her myself @ a&amp;e (hb need look aft lance). she was discharged yesterday early p.m. her fever subsided but appetite still zero, she was on dripped thruout the 3D2N at hospital. i bth her tantrum during the camping, so difficult to coax her to sip/eat anything... probably her tummy not comfortable at all, doc said she has stomach flu since no fever, ok to go home. i also v much want her to go home ysterday cos daddy is flying off in the same evening, &amp; i need to look after lance too. now v busy lor. if her vomit still comes by, may need to admit her again, keeping finger cross now. didnt send her to cc, tombang her @ nanny house... nanny said so far so good, but she not as active as her normal self yet, always complains 'head pain' &amp; 'no energy', whole day slp slp slp. me &amp; nanny got to tink of all ways to let her open her golden mouth to sip/eat. okie, got to rush back tk over my next duty le... will catch up w u all again.

 

[vivphua]

Junnie,
You must be real exhausted... cos I understand how you feel. Tiffie is hospitalized for Rotavirus (One of the most extreme stomach virus) sometime back. It started with very high fever, followed by severe vomiting and diarrhea. The whole episode lasted 10 days... and by the time she recovered, I'm infected with the same... haiz, so I know how Zann feel... basically she's exhausted and she may have stomachache, so that explains for lack of appetite. Actually, it's pretty fine for her not to eat much, but she must drink water. If she can tolerate water, I don't think you need to readmit her...give her sometime. You must take care too

 

[chintz]

junniez, hope u are coping well with both zann and lance on your own now. i'm sure zann will gets her appetite back real soon. hugs hugs to you and her!

 

[zhen_zhen]

junnie, hope zann recovers quickly. pls take care of yourself as well. let us know if you need any help.

 

[jas55]
