Thanks Isabella and AdelineL for the feedback. The point of the tods getting more wild when restricted is very true...
Aly, the "singing" candle packaging states it will sing Happy Birthday when you turn the stand. Its a normal small candle with a base stand.
Babypink: I thought you recommend Zhou's Kitchen as family dining. :x LOL
Pet: You make me envy lah! Everything is walking distance.

*bish* Pet! LOL. Even you go town also like 10mins. Busstop right in front of your hse.
BTW what cakes are you all ordering?
I dunno wanna get Ecreative, Pine Gardens Cake or Swensens? Ecreative cake filling is standard, but its cheaper. PG is more expensive then still need to add $15 for delivery and ? artwork cost... Other brands dun have delivery.

Kell, where is Hort park??? What do they have there?
crystal,
how does cheryl behave in the library? melody will not read in the library. she will want to crawl around and pull all the books off the shelves. i got so fed up.. i juz carried her and chose the books to borrow and went back home.
but at home, she will read the books. too much distraction.

Mummies, who knows where to buy Glenn Domain flash cards??
Sentosa is great! We brought Tristan there on Monday and stayed over at one of the resorts on Monday night...he loved the Underwater World and the animal shows at the Palawan Amphitheatre...he even got to touch a huge 1.3m long iguana there!!!
Btw, anyone joined the Mother and Baby baby contest?

shaz, i wanted to join but forgot to send in the application. haha. oh i didnt know there's animal show on sentosa.
adeline - thanks!
i think Sentosa is a good place to bring the bbs to! but only thing, weather these days sweltering hot!!!
adelineL - i haven't been to IMM before but splash area sounds like fun haha! i know Vivo also has an outdoor playground and splash area too....maybe we should have a gathering there one day....since nowadays weather so hot, somewhere with water is a brilliant idea!

yasmin - yah! he knew he was on "holiday" somehow cos the moment we put him on the bed, he was rolling around and laughing like he was the king of the bed! even when we dumped him into the cot, he was just jumping up and down!
re: Sentosa
for those going for the Sentosa trip, visit the underwater world! cos besides the fact that the bbs will enjoy seeing the fishes, the ticket entitles u to the dolphin lagoon too...
the palawan amphitheatre has animal shows and close encounter sessions (lories, monkeys, reptiles etc.)...so that is very worth going to too.
the palawan beach also has a small water area for kids to play in...i didn't manage to squeeze in any sand or water time this time round, but will definitely do that next time. there is a foodcourt just beside the kids splash area so u guys can go there and have a drink or some food after that (got high chairs there too, don't worry)!

Melissa,
DD3 is turning 1 end of Feb and she weighs 7.5kg. She's under the 25th percentile. In fact, all my kids are about the same range below 1yo.
I love to see them walk, so cute!
BB talking,
Mine will call me "MAMA" when she's desperate, like when I put her inside the exersaucer, she will cry and call mama.. hahaha
BB shoes,
For early walkers, you may want to try Bobux/ShooShoos. I like Bobux esp for the soft leather.
BBpink,
I thought most people will get lesser/no cramps after giving birth?

Re: walking
i wonder who the next bb to start walking will be!! currently, only andrae can walk, right? so exciting although i know when our bbs start to walk, we'll be wishing they can't cos gotta chase them around like mad!
Re: talking
Tristan can only say things like mama, papa, mum-mum...but sometimes also anyhow say! we've been trying to teach him how to say banana and yesterday he finally said it ONCE! then after that, kept saying "ba-mama"...haiyohhh! recently he's also been trying to pronounce the "G" sound so he's forever saying geh-geh-geh-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga - yes, he can say it continuously for 20 times so my cousin teased him and said he's a car that has an engine that is stuck!

RE: Talking
my boy talks in multi syllables, but makes no sense. Can say ma, dada, nana, ball and a few others la. Some words, like tristan say once only. too expensive to say again..hhehehe...When we repeat after him, there's definitely more words. He sings, shouts, scolds all in his own language. My boy even talks in his sleep!

Congrats on Kyzac's championship!!
Kell,
I bought both the body and wrist harness for dd1 as she's such a wanderer. Gets all attention whenever we use that. Yes, I've got pple telling me I'm cruel or says that I'm leasing a dog. But as far as I'm concern, my daughter doesnt get lost, I'm happy.
