Love note

Received a love note from Clarence yesterday.

Hope it is not an empty promise......

Light stick

Got this light stick from my primary 5 girl who went for the NDP preview. My kids were thrilled when they saw it. 

Lightsaber: 

 

Split

After putting her in gym and ballet classes, she can do split now, something I will never be able to do.

Her dolphin position in ballet class:

Vincy's Show and tell

Vincy's childcare center has been asking them to prepare show and tell topics quite frequently although they are only in K1 (early preparation for Primary 1). One of her topic was "My Favourite Person". Initially she told me she is going to talk about Mummy being her favourite person. So sweet!
But on 22nd of July, when I asked her to practice her show and tell, the favourite person became her classmate, Alexander.
Imagine my disappointment upon hearing it......I am not her favourite person? How can it be?
However, mummy managed to make her change her favourite person to me again during her actual show and tell session in school. haha!
The video recorded on 22nd July:



She wanted to be like her gor gor and she insisted on writing a script for her show and tell despite us telling her that it was unnecessary since hers will be rather short.
The funny part: this was the script that she was holding on to while doing her show and tell in the video. I really burst out laughing when I looked at her script. Couldn't make out what she was trying to write and made me wonder how she read from it. Lol!

Cupping at home

We had a cupping set at home and we sometimes will try to do cupping by ourselves. The other day, daddy asked Vincy to help him with cupping and my little girl cupped herself too.

 

Wallet

Mummy bought a new wallet for Daddy and our little Vincy happily took the old wallet. We gave her some expired cards and she was delighted.

The little garbage collector:

She played with it for a few days then passed the old wallet to her brother.

Jacob Ballas Children's Garden

Brought the kids to Jacob Ballas Children's Garden on a Sunday in late July. This was our second time there. We actually wanted to bring them there to play with their scooters. However to our dismay, scooters are allowed in there. So we just took a walk in the garden.

Playing with the slide in the tree-house:

Were the kids shrunk???

Their first time playing in a maze:

Suspended shaky bridge:

Little rocker

Clarence is preparing for his grade 2 rock school electric guitar exam next year. He will be skipping the grade 1 exam as recommended by his teacher. He has just finished learning his first piece titled "Cranked". Need to prepare 2 more pieces.
Playing "Cranked" with background drums (CD), recorded by daddy yesterday.



Surprisingly, he is willing to go for the rock school (electric guitar) exam when his teacher asked him to cos he refused to go for guitar ABRSM exam previously when he was learning the guitar. Anyway he has stopped learning guitar few months ago cos his interest is still in electric guitar.

Her new sling bag

Vincy has been requesting for a sling bag for quite some time. Got it for her last month and she was happy to bring her pink sling bag from Smiggle to her school.

 

CH Family Day cum Homecoming 2013

The CH Family Day cum Homecoming is an yearly event for my boy. We went earlier this year and Clarence went off to play his favourite Nerf gun with his friends while we enjoyed the food in the canteen.

Did not take much pictures this year. Posted this interesting game that Clarence played. Awesome game:

 

Spent all our coupons then it is home sweet home time.

Birthday presents

Bought birthday presents for them in advance (end June) for their birthdays in July and August. They each got a JD Bug scooter from Daddy.

Clarence's surferscooter, a scooter cum waveboard:

 

 Vincy's cool carver, a tri-scooter:

They tried the scooters downstairs first before venturing to Bishan Park.
