Hi mummies,
I am back to work. Tiring trip cos I cant read map and always get lost. hahaha..
Fa Yuen St was burned down the next day we visited them.
We went Shenzhen and Macau. Shenzhen is a place that you wun get bored with shopping. They have a few buildings of IT products for the guys. It will take them a few days to complete that few malls.
Ladies - many shopping malls but no time to shop.
HK - we are so sick of the food that we cant wait to be back for Spore Wanton noodles.
Dim sum - A few old uncles think we were crazy to have morning Dim sum with so many people, bringing kids somemore. We realised HKian dun bring kids for breakfast. We didnt really see kids at Dim Sum restaurant.
We took the Crystal cable to the Big Buddha. A great experience hanging in the mid of the sky, swinging and waiting for the strong wind to calm down. My mum said it was more exciting than taking the Galaxy ride in Disneyland.
Still love Singapore. Singapore is still the best.

Morning,
Preggie, I must thank you for introducing Dr Kong to me. Each of us bot a shoes and the shoes is so comfortable. Has I have realised Janelle feet are slightly not inline long time ago but just couldnt get a suitable shoes in spore.
We got extra insole to for her for her school school. She liked the Dr Kong shoes we got her, told us very comfortable. All of us got extra insole cos their online order is not ready yet.
We managed to get her a school bag there, my sister also got a bag and a pair of shoes for Jovan.
This is the best buy for this trip.

Hi Mommies!
I'm back too! But leaving for Langkawi in a couple of hours time.
So tired after hokkaido, i slept for 10 hours after touch down... am still feeling sleepy!
Hi Hong,
Glad you like Dr Kong. We got insoles for joey too and it works... she wore them to school and now her feet and posture is better.
I wonder why no one brings Dr Kong to Singapore. Their bags are ergonomic and not heavy.
Hi Jas,
Cutover on 1 Jan? Aiyoh.. why this kind of timing?
As for books and school uniform, I ordered directly from the school via fax and they delivered to my place. Although i had to pay $6 for delivery, it saved me considerable time and effort. You may want to consider doing the same if your school offers this service.
Hi StyloBB,
March is booked already. We are going to Clubmed Yabuli for 7 days of skiing. I think we will be going for more winter holidays coz the kids enjoyed playing in snow.
Hi M2B,
You haven't collectd your loot and canes from me ah?

Good morning mommies,
Seems like many pple are on leave. I tried to call some colleagues from another agency and no one picked up their phones..
We came back from Langkawi yesterday. I am amazed by the white sandy beach with powdery sand! The sand is finer than Mauritius! This island is like a cheaper version of Bali or Phuket. Relaxing and totally laid back.
Hi Chris,
When are you leaving for BKK?

Hi Hong,
We brought the kids to HK and they were ok. Instead of using a stroller, we used a sling which is easier coz need to climb up and down so many flights of stairs at their MTR station.
Did your kids enjoy disneyland? Which hotel did you stay in?
Will upload langkawi pictures soon.. very hard to upload to facebook coz it's so slow

Preggie,
I dun like HK that much. HK to me is only Disneyland for the kids. We used stroller, cannot sling Julian. Stroller is still ok, only up and down MTR is an issue but without stroller Law will have to carry Julian. Janelle will have to walk more, have to encourage and praise her to keep her going.
Disneyland - yes they enjoy the place very much. I stay in Royal Plaza and Hollywood disney.
Julian said he wanna stayed in hotel, do want to go home.

Are you still into high heels?
Tx for info on Central World.
1st day - was ok. A bit chaotic but shud settle down as the weeks go by.
The school principal and pastoral care staff are v reassuring.
I wl hv to wake up at 6.30am from now on.
1. Do you adjust the bedtime for your kids?
2. How much pocket money do you give?
3. Is your child taking bus or are you fetching him/her?

Morning Mommies.
Hope all the P1 kiddos have a good start in school yesterday.
Stylobb,
Josh in PM session so bedtime not a major issue at the moment. But personally, as long as a child gets abt 8-9hrs of sleep, he/she should be alright.
I give Josh $1.20. Then again, depends on how much the food in the canteen costs. If I didnt remember wrongly, I think my colleague mentioned that the food in Jesse's school costs more than some schools. A plate of chicken rice costs 60/80cents in Josh school.
Josh takes the school bus. Easier cos no rush for us.

Stylobb,
I personally prefer the child to get 10hrs of sleep but this is not possible during sch days. CY is asleep by 9.30pm and gets up at 6.30am. I wake up at 6.20am.
During the sch hols, he gets at least 10hrs of sleep and I can see that he is less tired and have better appetite. Also seemed to have put on some weight during the hols.
CY gets $1 a day but he hardly spends it cos he is usually playing with his classmates during recess.

Trans,
Sama Sama.. Josh spends only 50 or 20cents a day on snacks as he prefers to play "catching" during recess. But this week, he has to be a buddy to the P1s so he is busier during recess and not so happy about it. Haha.

Hi StyloBB,
Joey attends PM session too. During the school hols, she slept at 12am and wakes up at 10am. She must be quite tired yesterday. She fell asleep at 10pm. She'll have to wake up at about 9 coz KB will send her to my MIL's place and MIL will send her to school. I pick her up from school.
Joey gets $2 everyday. She spends most of it on food and drinks.
Once i picked her up from school for a medical appt and noticed that she doesn't socialise with her classmates during recess. She'll just concentrate on buying food and eating them.

Hi Mummies,
Janelle is adapting well. 1st day she is buying her own bowl of noodles. We asked if the senior helped her she said she did it herself. The senior just stand aside and watch. Hmmm...
Her senior not that sociable, did not really communicate with her. While she was busy with her new schools and friends, mummy here busy with talks that was organised by the school and the principal kept pushing us to the AV room to attend the talk.
Very assuring teachers and principal. They have alot of programmes for the girls so I think Janelle will enjoy her school life.
I gave her $2, suppose to be $1 each day but on the 1st day she spent $1.40 and some $$ so she gets to save.
Janelle is taking school bus but she board the bus at 11am and reached home at 7:30pm. Her class starts at 1230 and end at 630pm. 1 hr journey home.
She will be at my IL place during school day and MIL will ensure she in bed by 9:30pm. If we bring her back she will sleep ard 10 - 11pm.
Stylo,
thanks for the Icing room info. Just nice for Janelle to do up her own cake on Sat after lesson and bring over to celebrate with her friends after that.

Hi Chris,
Joey told me that she ate fried rice with shish kebab yesterday. I think she quite enjoy canteen life! haha
Hi Hong,
Considering that the school is not too far from where you stay, she reaches home pretty late at 7.30.
For us, we will reach home latest 7.30 if there's a traffic jam, otherwise, we will be home by 7.15, 7.20 latest.
Have you considered picking her up yourself? Then she can save time on travelling.
