Rice with soup

Vincy went to Ah mah's house and had a little rice with soup there. We let Ah mah practice her feeding skills. A little warm up for Ah mah as we have plans to let her take care of Vincy next year when I go back to work.

Carrefour

We went to Carrefour to buy milk powder for Vincy last week. So far, the prices for Similac there are the cheapest as compared to supermarket or those small chinese medical stores.
We found a small playground inside Carrefour and the children had a good time there.

We went there again yesterday to buy milk powder for Clarence and little Vincy surprised us by sliding down the slide herself without any help.

We really think she is very agile for her age as compared to her brother when he was 1.

Pat

When Clarence was crying on my bed the other day, Vincy saw him cry and climbed up to my bed to pat him. Wow, she was trying to console her big brother!
Mummy asked her to pat Clarence again for me to take picture.

Last week's art

Clarence's 2 pieces of art work last week.
Pig and Mouse.

Clarence told me he wanted to draw a colourful pig for me so he added different colours to the pig.

The dinosaur piece was done with quite a lot of help from the teacher at the make-up art class.

Doll play

We bought a stroller for meimei during a sale and she got a doll as her birthday present recently, so mei mei can take her doll out for a walk at home. Some girlish toys at last.

We bought another doll for meimei and gor gor was very excited to play with meimei's new doll. Faint!

抓周

今天是颍希的周岁生日，我忽然想让她玩抓周。于是我上网找了些相关资料，然后去准备。
以下是十一样让她抓周的物品。每样都代表不一样的意义和职业。

迫不及待要冲上前抓周的颍希：

抓周的录影：

她第一样选的是计算机：代表会当商人、会计师，适合从商。

她玩最久的则是钱：代表将来会很富有。

She is walking!

Vincy can walk a small distance independently by herself yesterday. Watch!

I just took her to the PD to take her Hep A vaccine today. She weighs 8.86kg and measures 74cm. Her weight and height are in the 50th percentile now.
Her weight and height fluctuates from 50th percentile to 10th percentile and 3rd percentile and now back to 50th percentile. Hopefully she can maintain her current growth rate and stay in the 50th percentile.

Happy Birthday Vincy!

New corner

We went to T3 for dinner and found a new corner for the kids to hang out. One of the shop has closed and the area has been turned into a TV watching corner for children. They were screening cartoons from cartoon network that night.

Clarence glued himself to the TV that night. The TV addict would rather watch TV than play in the playground.

Phuket Day 4

We woke up late on the last day of our trip so we went for a quick breakfast and dip in the pool before we packed up and go home.
Clarence was sad to leave Phuket. He kept asking why we did not book 5 days instead of 4.
Pictures taken at the hotel before we left.

We had subway sandwich for lunch at the airport. Clarence enjoying the chips from Subway.

As we still had some money left after lunch, we went for neck and shoulder massage in the airport while the 2 kids roamed in the shop.

When we finally reached home, we realised Clarence left his nike bag in the taxi and were very angry with Clarence. There were 10 plus Ben 10 characters inside the bag (心疼死了）. But Clarence seemed ok to lose his toys. So you can imagine the amount of anger we felt.
We enjoyed the trip with all the company but think the kids enjoyed more than us and we are looking forward to another holiday!

Phuket Day 3

Our Day 3 at Phuket began with breakfast then we signed up for an elephant trekking adventure in the afternoon before we proceeded to the beach. Happy Clarence at the beach!

Meimei could not go and play in the sand cos it was drizzling. So we covered her up before boss and her went back to the hotel room.

Mummy and son at the beach despite the drizzle. Mummy got sunburned after 2 days at the beach.

When the rain stopped, it became rather hot so we went back to the hotel's pool. Meimei and boss joined us later and we had our lunch at the pool bar.

The elephant trekking adventure for boss and Clarence.

Actually mummy wanted to go with Clarence but he chose boss over me so I stayed in the hotel with meimei.

Mummy had stomach upset that evening so I stayed in the hotel room and rest while boss went for dinner with the kids in the hotel's cafe.

Phuket Day 2

After a good night rest, we woke up early in the morning to have breakfast in the hotel. Domi loves babies. He kept coming over to our table to play with Vincy.

The sand and the sea at the beach!

Quality bonding time for boss and his princess.

Clarence and boss going jet skiing.

Boss's jet ski speed was very slow cos Clarence was scared. Nonetheless, mummy was very happy that he was willing to try. However, we did not manage to get him to try parasailing. What a pity!

Sunshine family photo!

My darlings and me!

Discovered a nice place to dump the kids while the mummies went for massage. We left the older kids in KidsWorld in the hotel. There were playstations, indoor playground and movie screening and they even conducted activities for the kids. And it was Free!

The kids watching Narnia there.

There was a closet there for them to play dress-up. So we have a princess, spider man, superman and batman.

Superhero Clarence!

Vincy also had a great time in the baby play area.

Walking on the street to search for dinner.

We shopped for a while before we went back to the hotel to rest our tired legs.

Phuket Day 1

We reached Phuket Airport in the afternoon and while the adults were busy collecting luggage and bargaining for transport, mummy took pictures of the little monkeys.

The 4 families squeezed into a mini van to get to Courtyard Marriott.
The noisy cheeky monkeys in the hotel lobby.

The Phuas and Tays waited for more than 20 minutes for our room to be ready, think they overbooked. So to compensate for our waiting time, the Tays got a room upgrade. We booked a deluxe room but got a premier room instead. While waiting for our room, Clarence and Sarah entertained themselves with silly games.

After we got our room and settled down, we dashed to the pool for a dip.

After the swim, we showered and went for dinner.

Creative children playing with anything they could lay their hands on.

The whole gang. (Auntie Candy and Auntie Janet were missing cos they were the camera women)

The buddies for the trip.

The children were amazed by the sexy "women" dancing with poles along the way.......

We got an extra bed for Clarence but he still wanted to sleep in the sleeping bag. So we put the sleeping bag on the bed for him.
