I'm extremely delighted today cos Zac made it on 2 wheel bicycle :) He has been cycling on 4 wheel bicycle all this while.
It was all sweat & aching limbs for him cos he practiced for nearly to 2 hours under the patient guidance from his parents (ahem!!). I somehow felt that my leave from work is all worth it!!
We celebrated Amos' 4th birthday yesterday :) Although it was a small celebration, little Amos enjoyed himself tremendously... ... We had lunch at Swensen, there was a long queue due to the 1 for 1 lunch offer. I din even know of the promotion, it was really worth i t!! :):)
Amos was so excited to head to Kidz Amaze.... we haven't been there for months but he could still rem the different passages leading to different slides. He had 2 hrs of non-stop fun & was reluctant to go home.
It was really late & I have to invite the birthday boy to return home to cut his birthday cake. :D:D
HAPPY 4th BIRTHDAY to Darling Amos May you always be cheerful & lovable :):)
Amos is attending his nursery this year. This is not the first time he goes to school. He attended playgroups & pre-nursery prior to that. In fact, he started going to school at 20 mths ~:) There was a bit of crying from him on the first day of school bcos of the early class & he tend to be a bit cranky. He has get used to waking up early now & enjoyed going to his morning class :):)
As for Zac, he began his Primary school journey this year. I was so worried for him on the first day of school. I went to see him during his recess time. He managed to order the food he wanted to eat after a bit of confusion & help from the parent volunteer as well as his Pri 3 buddy. As the days passed by.... he has attended school for a month now. I'm no longer worried about him during his recess time as he is coping fine !! :):)
My friend, Audrey's princess Faith had a fantastic 4th birthday party in December 2009.
Faith was overjoyed to introduce her favourtie Brand's alpha Shield Chewable C Double Action & Alpha Vision Bilberry with Vit A & Zinc to her friends and cousins. These were the treasures that came along with the goodie bags :) We were delighted all of the kids love the taste of these 2 vitamins.
Though Amos & Zachary did not make it for the party, Audrey had kindly reserved some for them. Look how jolly they were!! In fact, they had been taking the Brand's Vit C, DHA & Bilberry with Vit A & Zinc since 2 years ago. They especially love the taste of Vit C. Zac has been a member of Brand's since then :):)
Zac's K2 Certification Presentation & Concert finally ended last Sunday @ ITE Simei Auditorium. It must have been tough on the participating children & teachers with the constant rehearsal prior to it!! *sweat*
Below is pic of Zac with his graduation gown over his concert attire. He took a pic with his best friend, Xavier. Too bad the 2 boys will not be in the same school next year *sob* The VIPs for the event was Deputy Prime Minister & Minister of Defence, Mr Teo Chee Hean. The boys were so honoured to be able to take a pic with him :):)
We also took pic with our MPs, Ms Penny Low. She is so friendly & even joked with Amos, who was shy at first to take the pic ;p
I always believe in a safer home for the kids. I still remember we bought a total of 2 Baby Gates after Zachary learned to crawl. We preferred swing closed Pressure Gates, one each for the kitchen & Zachary's bedroom. At that time, there wasn't a lot of Child Safety Gates available over here to choose from. I learnt recently that mothers nowadays are spoilt for choices. KidCo Gates offer a wide variety of baby gate. They have gates ranging from Stairway Gates to Pet Gates & Extra Wide Baby Gates for those with mighty homes. They even have Custom Fit Gate which is ideal for those with unusual & nonparallel walls.
The products offer great way to make a safe, secure, yet non-confining space for one or more children.
The boys went to the newly opened Kidz Amaze at Safra Jurong last weekend. It is the tallest Ballocity ever built in Singapore with 5 levels & 31 elements of plays in the maze.
The family package for 2 Adult & 2 Child is S$26.75 ( for Safra Member). It may be slightly more expensive than Explorer Kids but the ticket is for unlimited play till 9pm.
It is definitely more fun over at Kidz Amaze as you can see below ... ...
Zac tried on these indoor spiral slide umpteen times. It is one of the tallest indoor spiral slide in Asia.
Amos on the other hand tried thrice on this twisty & turny one which is slightly shorter than the tallest one. I have to applause for his bravery cos mummy is too scare to slide down !! *scream*
We will definitely go there again very soon. Its just too fun for the kids. We spent a total of 3 hours there !! :):)
The boys tried catching fish for the first time after hearing from my friend that this particular pond on the NE side of Singapore has a lot of "longkang" fishes.
I specially bought 2 nets a day before the trip for the boys.
It was a hot afternoon.... when we reached there, I realized that I've forgotten to bring along food for the fishes *alamak* ;p
Nevertheless, we still managed to catch abt 50 little fishes. The biggest of the shoal of fishes was caught by Zac *applause*
We intend to go there again & this time with food so that we can catch the bigger ones!! ;p We released the fishes back to the pond before we leave ... ...
