Last Fri was Jasper sports day. It was rainig so heavily in the morn so they have changed the venue from West Coast park to their own music room instead. Though change of plan, it did not tamper the spirits of the kids there. There were so looking forward to the event. It turned out quite successful excpt the space is of cos smaller than the park! the kids really run so fast and it could have been better if bigger space to run run and run!
I also got to participate w Jasper in the parents kids run... and came out second! haaa
Jasper also didn't cry n run to us when he see us in the room. He joined his friends to sit together. Guess more or less he accepted the school system. 2 of his friends actually cry when they see their parents/family n cannot join them. so I must say Jasper is quite good n steady liao.
After the games, we have our group shots and award ceremony. While waiting for Jasper to have his macdonalds happy meal in school, we went to have our tyres changed. yes been some time since we service our car too. Damage is :(
After that, we detour back to fetch the happy boy and then all 4 of us head to a korean resturant opp of Haw Par Villa. Hb said Haw Par villa still can go in... but dare meh? looks eerie the whole place when I use to go there when i was so young haaa....
Anyway that place we lunched is where I often go when I was younger with my parents n sis... those were the innocent days when there was still a food court and think there an arcade there. my sis n I use to love goin there to makan n play... so now bring my kids... oohhh... sounds old liao
The place was marvellous for us!!! both parents n kids! There was a big play area filled with balls n then some toys n carts. There were mobiles too. Jasper ate some porridge we brought quickly while Gem never eat hers! then off the two kids go to play... Luckily our table is very near to the play area so we just eat n supervise them from far. Though there were times when we do go over n check if they ok.
After that, we went to vivo. I told Jasper to nap a while so that later wun doze in the cinema! yes we be watching the first movie in the cinema with the 2 kids! Jasper really slept within 1 min. good boy! then after the nap, he woke n we went toyrus to play a while n then prepared milk for both of them. Then off we went to buy popcorns and go into the cinema.
Once the movie starts, Gemma actually slept! luckily she pays nothing haaa if not lugi. Jasper actually enjoy n ate popcorns along the way. He went for 1 toilet break. he even sat with 1 leg crossed haaa. After the show, he told us his fav character was the octopus, I told him bad guy ley! The show is touching so u must go watch! it also have v meaningful storyline that u must take care of yr toys, about feelings n togetherness.
By the time we finish the show it was 630 p.m, we wanted to go to USS ($2 entry only) n we didn't wan to waste time eating dinner at some bz food court. Everywhere is crowded anywhere, so we ended up buying lots of bread at break talk to bring to Sentosa to eat.
We took the tram n we enjoyed the nite view. Jasper was hungry by the time we reached there so all of us grab our bread n sat down enjoying the surroundings.
By the time we eat finish is almost 8 n we quickly bought tickets n went into USS. We only can explore the hollywood part but the kids are v happy running around already. The air is cooling by then so v good to walk. We took many shots there.
We reached home by 10.30 p.m n was so drained out! but all happy n kids behave v well! Bravo!
Then came sat, went early to Honda service centre to put our car there. Then initally wanted to take train to Jasper school but not enough time. So end up take cab.
By the time reach was 15 min late n I hurried into room with Jasper. Heard Gemma crying outside n I ran out again n papa took over.
Finish class n we walked around Bugis n the kids wun miss the toys sections n games arcade where they play a few games.
Nite time ate with my parents for a belated father's day treat. Actually wanted them to follow Fri but they could not. We went to OCBC centre (Peach garden) to makan. It was our first time there n the food is rather nice. but the ambience there quite grand. So little Gem was wearing quite appropiate in her princess dress again. For my mum to see la ... haaaa
Everyone there commented she really look like a princess or bride n she was v happy tat day too. Gals really can dress many ways...
Will load the pic soon...
Sunday we went IMM for Jasper Macdonaldssss... he just love it. n he pestered to go library again. yes again. sat went for a brief one already. by dinner time, I was exhausted so get hb to dabo food back home to eat. n He also bought durians! season now so super nice!
That was our long wkend!

trying to load last wkend activities pictures but have technical problems since yesterday. will try later.
b4 I forget I must say Jasper really improve alot in his social skills as seen last wkend. Last sat he met with many kids which he saw first time and though he is quite shy, he did not move aside. At first he want me to follow him everywhere but slowly he let go n was more comfy, though hb is around. I can see that he no longer so afraid of new environment and warm up faster than b4. Bravo! Till now, I still sick of relatives telling me whether I do bring my kids out n y they so shy. it as if I keep them in the house 24/7 n not letting them see the world. It was untrue n it really hurts when they pass these insensitive remarks. I always tried my best to let them mix with people. Actually social wise, Gem def fare better than Jasper. She can shake hands with strangers or wave hello but def wun let them carry.
yesterday nite Jasper sang happy birthday song again in chinese n Gem actually clap n follow song too. She can say the words. so really 2nd can follow 1st child. I rem Jasper still clueless of bd song b4 he turns 2! hahaha Gem smiles sweetly when I praise her.

She cry for quite a while b4 giving up n returning to bed. Second time I talked her out n tell her there's a lion (she scared of it) waiting outside for her if she insist on going out. She came to me n I hug her then she returned back to bed. Third time was when I wake up to get ready for work n I quickly hug her n move her back to bed... hiaz... hope she can return back to normal soonnnnn

Ytd Gemma cry again when maid left her sight. Maid is sick n got to go see doc. So end up I left her standing at the door grille waiting for her to come back. I can't even come close to her as she will snap n cry loudly... this is how fierce she is... hiaz
Ok I not sure if I have tok abt their eating habits. I realise Gem like to imitate the adults way of eating, like eat the whole corn and chicken wings w/o cutting. If I tear the meat up n give her, she will refuse to take. So end up I give her the wing and she slowly bite n munch and enjoy.
Jasper, on the other hand dun eat corn and as for chicken, I need to tear for him small pieces n he will take n eat...

I forgot to say ever since Jasper went school, Gemma have been trying her best to go down those bigger slide (playground and not those Little Tikes kind) herself. She used to held our hand then have the courage to slide. Even when slide also v slow motion.
Last month she actually tried once herself and gain confidence. Now she can confidentally go down slide herself. n she quite ya ya. Every time she will lift her hands up while she goes down.
Recently we went Jacos Ballas Garden for an event. There is a treehouse there if you been there and there are 2 tunnel slides there. One is higher (abt 3 storey) and another shorter (2nd level)
Jasper dare to slide down both. Being an amateur, I didn't think Gem will make it lor. N i tried to slide down with her. She scream and refused. End up she act slide down the shorter one all by herself! gosh. but after the first, it was her last try too keke... she was scare stiff cos it was faster than she thot... hahaha
So end up Jasper was the one who keep sliding down. Ok later Gem slide down with daddy... :)

Yesterday, I stay home n when we went out to buy some herbal tea, he insist to follow so we brought him. He never thot of bringing mei mei along.
Then later in the nite, we went down to buy some groceries for today. Mei mei was alert while Jasper was still feeling drowsy. Then we asked Gemma along. At first she hesistated. Then when she decided to go, she blurt out "Gor gor" and point into the room. We told her gor gor not going.
We did it quietly cos we did not wan Jasper to follow since he was sleepy. but mei mei actually call for him! how sweet!
So Gemma thinks of gor gor lor even though she does fight w him... n when we r downstairs, she was moodless unlike with her bro where she will chase after him. Or prob she sick la...

High fever n cough. Visited the doc and doc say it looked like 2 ulcers r coming up in Gem throat but he not confirmed it is HFMD. He say not necc.... hope it not comforting words...
Anyway Gem was again scared of her doc trips... She always anticipated doc wish to open her mouth n always do the opp... - shut the mouth tight tight.... but this time she gladly step on the weighing machine w/o tears... haaa n sadly it was still 9.2kg! doc told her to eat more if not the wind will blow her away. In fact this week I started her on another multivit called Kiddi and Pedisure... Hopefully she gain some weight!!!
In fact 2 weeks ago, I was down with this bad cough w thick phelgm which I couldn't cough out. But te kids didn't got it though I was closer to them. So didn't expect them to felt sick this time. Hiaz... It been quite some time they r sick since the Taiwan trip in march. Hope they get better soon.
