 Hi Imm, Ko and Ariel,

What an eventful Oct! Hehe... Ariel's new uniform was sent over and we got to try the oversized on. Haha.. you look so happy but probably don't know what is in store for you yet. :P Still you look so cute in it!


We went shopping for a new fridge and washing machine. It was a good chance to shop around and Ariel got to play on those machines that can move when you slot in money. But she is just happy sitting in it.. for now :)


And then someone slotted a coin and she and other kids could go around on this mini carousel. So happy to see you so exited!


We also went to Uncle Ajie's place and played at the playground. it was also your first time in a swimming costume and we tried to ask you to go into the baby pool and play. But you just kept crying.. It's so funny cos you seemed so terrorised. Mummy will go in with you next time!


Hey ko, you are still practising your songs on simply piano very well.. woohoo! And excited when you practise and score full marks. Yep! it is all about practice making perfect! :)


Another thing we managed to do together was making banana pancakes. Mummy saw you felt accomplished after being able to flip the pancake well and was so happy, spreading jam on it later. You even told Daddy that you had a surprised waiting for him when he came back. Ko simply loves giving people surprises and spontaneous hugs :)


We went to visit Auntie Huiwen at her new place. Asher has grown so much and can talk a lot now! 3 of you had a fun time playing. We had dinner together and it was a cosy affair.


Imm and Ko, We also went to a supper date at Srisun and had a lot of fun drinking the milo tower! It was so funny seeing both of your gasping faces.


Girls sweet dessert time! Mummy enjoyed it with Ko very much. and the company. we should have more supper dates like these :)



Letter to Immanuel, Reiko and Ariel #238 #19 New Friends, Fun at Jewel, Mummy's Graduation

 Dear Imm, Ko And Ri,


We had a fun filled Sep indeed. Looking at the pics, saw that we had many fun dates with Eli! We went to godma's house and had dinner, making a house with these sticks. You children were pretty engaged making the little shelter over your heads, haha...


Hard at work. especially for Imm who loves to build stuff!


we also went to Sengkang Park to scoot. Imm didn't want to blade/scoot and regretted it when we had to take a long walk. it was nice exploring new places and doing physical activities (what mummy thinks) instead of being at home and playing brawl stars or talking about playing brawl stars all the time. Hehe..


Ko and Mummy also made some pancakes together and french toast. It is time that Ko take over the apron strings.. haha.. we talked about doing it bi-weekly. Let us try ok? I know it is difficult when things can take over our time...


And Ri has grown stronger! She can hold onto the bar for quite sometime! :)


When we go out, we realise that Ri has a phobia of walking on drains. She would try all ways to avoid walking on it... hehe.. luckily got Imm and ko to help her!


I think this was when we were doing our mooncakes. But it turned out disastrous so that's why no pictures of the mooncakes.. hahaha!


More cute pics of Ri!



We also made quite a few visits to Jewel because Daddy got a package there. While Imm and Ko went to play on the bouncing nets, Mummy and ri went to take pics and spend time together. :)



Mummy prepared dinner so both Imm and Ko could eat first before bouncing on the nets..


Imm absolutely loves his beef rice!


This was something that Auntie Vika made which was pretty nice and Ri loves it. Must remember to ask her for the recipe.


One milestone for mummy was that I graduated and is able to spend the long lost time with you. Hehe... Mummy is sooo happy that I overcame the hurdle. Thank you for being understanding when Mummy is not able to spend as much time as I would like with you.


Thank you for being my cheerleaders and supporting me, especially Daddy who had to solo parent for about a year. let's continue to support each other in our dreams too!



And Ko also got commerated to be the prayer monitor in class! She was initially proud of it but the passion died down again shortly and Mummy has to remind her to wear her badge.



Hi Kiddos! we had a great time and also enjoyed the milestones in our lives. Remember to keep celebrating each others' achievements together as a family ya. :)

Letter to Immanuel, Reiko and Ariel #237 #18 Immanuel's 9th Birthday, Daddy's Birthday, Celebratory dinners and Friend Cookouts

Hi Imm, Ko and Ariel!

We sure had a great Aug, celebrating different occasions. One of which was Imm's Birthday, celebrated at Auntie Jenny's house.. Auntie Jenny is so sweet, made a cake for him and we had dinner there. Ri also enjoyed herself playing with the dog. I realised that Ri love animals :) She warmed up easily cos of the dog.

Imm also celebrated your birthday with your friends right? We invited two friends, Gareth and David. It was a nice simple celebration. Mummy prepared beef rice with veg. Auntie Vika baked a big muffin cake and some cheese tarts since Imm is not a cake person. But hor, mummy was a bit upset that all you all played with was brawl stars. I actually bought uno card game for imm to play with his friends. :P


And we also celebrated Daddy's birthday! But it was jus mummy and daddy going to Gspa for massage and eating. :)

On other days, Mummy was able to work from home so could also pig out with Daddy at Collins.

We had a mini zi char eat out to celebrate Mummy finishing my studies.

Ri was so happy to be out and about :) Kept walking around and we had to follow her and catch her back. Ri, you are so friendly towards people. I think you will enjoy school. Mummy sees you hugging other small children when we are out at times.


Oh we ate out quite a bit this month.. had claypot rice with popo and wai gong..


Oh! we also started preparing for teacher's day gifts.. Ko made a bouquet of flowers! Ko, I know you put in a lot of effort and tried really hard to make the petals nice. Good Job!!:)



Other family eat outs include our favourite DIG.. again! hehe

And having our favourite Jiu Xian dessert!



Ri love to make faces like these these days. The super cheeky face whenever we ask her in mandarin if she wants to eat something. Ri, you seemed to know what makes us laugh and works towards that. haha



Oh yes Mummy also had my me time going for staycation with Auntie Qin and Auntie Sarah, thanks to Daddy who is able to take care of you all. yipee.... Mummy needs to have me time so can look after the family better!


Both of you and your wantan noodles.. haha

Waa!! What is this! Auntie Joan cooked a spread for us at our home. Mee Siam! It was really a lot of hard work and took like 3-4 hours..



It was so yumzz!!


But of cos the kiddos didn't eat that. Auntie Joan prepared chicken stew separately which we enjoyed very much.


In return, she enjoyed the desserts from Ko.. hehe... so cute and looks so real right?


Here is how Ariel looks like when she wants to eat something.


And another one. Sleepier version.


Making the most out of time a home and doing this structure. It was soo fun! Finally see Imm and Ko having a nice cooperative picture when most times both of you are fighting :P


And here spells the end of Aug!
