< Merry Christmas & Happy New Year >

Merry Christmas & Happy 2008! May all your wishes come true ;).

This yr, we spent our Xmas Eve in KK Hospital. Instead of having a turkey/ham/wine feast, we had breads and mineral water . C fever went on and off since 8 Dec! On 23 Dec, She cried the whole night complaining her right ear very painful and the fever subsided on 24 Dec. After getting the PD advised, we decided to bring her to KK Hosp for a check up. C was very braved to go thru all the blood, urine and X-ray tests and thanks goodness that everything was ok excepted that her right ear was infected. After a week MC (*Muck* & thanks to my SILs for taking care of her) with tons of medi + antibiotic, she was all fine now. I thk this is our greatest present this yr!!! haha and of cos had to thanks to my Santa Clause of giving me the present that i wish for!!!! yeah, my psp!!!

We are going to enjoy our new yr day tomorrow!!! I hope you enjoy yours too ;)

Gosh!! I had hard time explaning to her this is actually for decoration~~~~~~OO~~~~~~

< 12 Days of Christmas Swap Just for Kids >

Had explained to C about swapping at swapbot so when i told her that she will be joining in the fun of swapping with other country friend for 12 days of Christmas, she get very excited and worry. She worried that her partner might not know where is Singapore as Singapore is sooo tiny in the map (LOL).

Her partner, Tayler is a 9 years old girl who lived in USA. We had fun time shopping/handmade the gifts for her. I hope Tyler will like the gifts that we had sent.

< Cerilynn's Graduation Concert >

(The N2 Lions - ROAR!)


(My proud little lion, Cerilynn)

Last Friday (30th Nov 07) was C graduation concert. This yr the concert was held at Civil Service College and the auditorium was much smaller as compared to last yr venue. I thk due to this reason, this yr Playgp and N1 students never get to perform in the concert. What a waste! I always think this is a good way of exposing the kids.

This yr, C performed in Lions Dance (haha not that type of traditional lion dance). They had been praticing since July. As usual, C took it very seriously and a few times, i caught her scolding her own leg "naughty" jus becos she had missed some dance steps! (LOL).

Before the concert start, I was busy looking at the pictures and the funny thing was...I had a hard time recongnised which one is Cerilynn!!! Never espect that they will put on such a thick make up. {side note: Looking at C's face with the make up...suddently i realised that C had grown up!!! kekee so coincident that DH also had the same tot! haha i thk is time for TTC!!!}

This yr theme was jungle animals and the title was called ...The Proud Lion, the synopsis was about how the proud lion king withnessed the beauty of his kingdom while he was trapped by the hunter.

It was an enjoyable night and i was sooo proud with C and most importantly she herself enjoy it very much. As promised, will bring C to Ikea's ballroom tomorrow as a reward :).

Here are some photos that DH took during and after the concert:


(My fiece little lion, Cerilynn keep telling us this part cannot smile)
