Chinese Speech and Drama Performance 29/09/2011

This year, Amanda is in N1 in her CC and she attends the Chinese Speech and Drama and English Speech and Drama once per week respectively. The Chinese Speech and Drama will have a performance annually to showcase some of the things they have learnt during the class. I attended the performance alone as daddy was working and could not take leave. It was pretty entertaining to see the cute 3 years old performing songs and a short drama lol. The kids have performed really well noting that they are only 3 years old.

A big grin on our way home after the performance. Her makeup looked kind of thick haha

Amelia

Amelia was born just a day after my birthday. Well, she was "forced out" since we induced her out before my due date due to a few reasons. I always joked that's why she tends to be more fussy and grumpy.

She is really not an easy baby to take care of as compared to her *easy going* sister. Minus the occassional tantrums and her hyperactive nature, Amanda is really much easier to handle. Amelia is the kind who will scream and whine for attention and it really gets on your nerves especially when you are tired and sleep deprived and when there is a mountain of chores waiting to be done.

However, she will give you the sweetest smile first thing in the morning when she opens her eyes That just melt your heart and soothes all the nerves haha!




Her mega watt smile when she sees you!


Do it with your heart

The other night, Daddy was carrying Amelia and he got really tired of handling her and asked Amanda to entertain Amelia by playing Peekaboo with her. (Amelia loves it whenever Amanda plays Peekaboo)

As Amanda was busy well playing game on the ipad (I been trying to reduce the amount of time she spends on it even though it can be educational stuffs), she did the Peekaboo half heartedly and Amelia just stared blankly at her.

Daddy said " Can you do it with your heart?" (He meant for Amanda to concentrate on playing Peekaboo)

Amanda then placed one hand on her chest (her heart) and said "Peekaboo!"

Double As

I just realised that it has been more than half a year since I last updated my blog! I really hope I can update more often.


Life with 2 kids is just busy, busy and busy!


My days passed by with me starting the morning feeding the girls, getting the elder one ready for school and rushing to work and ended with me rushing home after work, spending whatever little time I have with them and getting them to bed and doing some chores. There is really not enough time and there is so much to do. There are times I wish I could spend more time with them. Other times, I am glad to be at work and it can be so overwhleming handling the two of them. The younger one needs a lot of carrying and is not happy to be lying down or be in one position for a longer time and she naps really little in the day which makes it almost impossible and difficult to do much things. I hope she will grow out of this soon and well give everyone a breather haha.

Tempers flare at times but other times are pure joy watching the girls playing and laughing. The elder one sometimes can make you laugh your heads off with her innocence and funny conversation.



My two cutie pies!

Barney show at United Square

I have not intended to bring her to the Barney show at United Square. One Saturday after Amanda's class at Little Acorns, I brought her to United Square next door to walk around. Happened to see a poster and I thought there was a Diego show at 12pm. Hence, decided to hang around the mall and bring her to watch the Diego show. Brought her to ELC and toyrus and lunch at Hong Kong cafe. When I went down at 12 pm for show, only then I realised the queue was for a Barney show at 1pm. We ended up queueing 1 hr for the show but we have a pretty front seat. The show was not bad I think.

*KTV* time hee hee



Posing for me at HK cafe


The Barney show!


Amanda engrossed in the show

I heard the Strawberry Shortcake show is nice. I think I will try to bring her to catch that show too!

Going to the library

Brought Amanda to the library on a Monday (29/11/10) as her CC was closed for cleaning and I have taken leave to spend time with her.


Look as if she is a serious library goer haha



*Reading* the book she has chosen




Posing for her auntie at the library
Last Sunday, brought her to library again and borrowed quite a number of books for her. She was quite happy to have me read to her the library books that night. Maybe she is sick of the books at home haha. I guess we need to visit library often and they really do have a wide selection of children books !
