splish splash !!

Kielli luvs water n i wanna let her play some water!!!

So, we're doing a splash party at fang's place tis sat. Here's wat i rented for the little kids to play: Water Park Banzai!!

It's actually a very small affair, with the Ngs, SOhs, Kims & LEongs, with our main objective being to keep in touch with Karen and celebrate her birthdae!

Then, guess wat happened:

fang: ur gal the onli gal leh...
Daph: ok, we'll get Candy & Aloysious to come!!

fang; i asked Lena since she had a boy

daph: Oh...me asked Janice to come too!!

And so, the party expanded...
AND I realised, the pool is too small for all kids..
And then, Adrian suggested he'll bring some games...

So now, we have a games cum splash party.. :)

maybe...i'll invite my cousin n her boy too!!! haha...

art & craft day.

i did some art & craft todae.
Here's my creation:

1) Photo frames for Kielli's grandparents
2) Kielli's profile page for church nursery room

Been a good day doing the little craftwork. If time allows me, i will certainly hope to do some painting next week. Should be quite fun!!

little snail crawling adventures,

Little snail fell off the bed yesterdae. My deduction: She woke up from her sleep, crept n crawled over the bolsters around her, over the bed ledge. Before we knew it, my sis-in-law heard a thump. And we found her on the floor.

Up to todae, no one knew how she fell off the bed. Onli Kielli & God knows. The litle snail cried for less than 5 mins and was then up to her normal self. When we brought her to KK, she was still smiling at the nurses. Well, She was way toooooo normal despite the fall. But I was HORRIFIED. Trust me. I got a horrible fright. It took me some time b4 i got over the shock. Perhaps, it;s the first kid syndrome. I was juz in SHOCK.

This gal is way too hyperactive, too fast, too adventurous. It's onli her 2nd day of crawling n she kinda had crawled over all the pillows & bolsters on the bed.

To think back,since she was young, Terence had been laying obstacles all over our bed and training her to crawl all over. He allowed her to crawl OVER the bolsters, pillows, over his body, his chest, his shoulders, his face, his feet, arms, and everything else on his body. He would put one pillow, then one bolster after it. And then stack up 2 pillows n let his dear daughter crawl over it. Or 2 pillows, then 1 bolsters. Anwyay, watever permutations he can think of, he will "train" her to crawl. i wonder if it's a daddy thingy to strategise such crawling program .His rationale: to train her to be more tough. Not him alone. I am guilty of that too. But i do it more for pure fun. Coz it's way too fun to have a little teeny weeny living thing with lotsa funnie expressions crawling all over u. i can't resist it. Perhaps, tat's why little Kielli crawled over the bolsters n off the bed.

Anyway, TEr & i thank God for protecting little Kielli. Apparently, the little gal did not cry when she's on the floor. She onli started crying when we picked her up.
It dawned upon me that God has been protecting tis little gal that she suffered no major injury when she fell off the bed. God is truly good!! Brings me back to the past when little Kielli was inside my womb, measuring barely 2cm with a 8cm cyst behind her. And God took away the 8cm cyst and protected tis little one. I was telling Ter that perhaps as Kielli fell off the bed, some nice angels carried her. That's why she was perfectly fine. :) Watever it is, i we know that that God has divinely protected Kielli from the fall. ANd we thank God for His protection on tis little gal.


Tis beautiful little gal is truly made by God and for God. ANd i know God loves her. SO perhaps, it's truly time to let go and give her to God. I can't possibly be there for her 24 hrs a day.With her playful & adventurous nature, i know that there will be more accidents to come in the future. But i can trust that wheerevr tis little gal is, God is with her.

AS i watch little Kielli with her hyper-active character, i wonder wat God has in store for her in the future and who she will be when she grows up. Well, i never will know the future. But my desire: As God has uniquely made her with her unique character, strengths and weaknesses, may she grow up to be who God wants her to be and see the world thru God's eyes.

At the speed that Kielli travels, i am definetely going to lose more weight. YIPEE!!

our little snail Ki-Elli

Our little Elli snail made her first crawl todae!! And she is So fast!!!

She is sooo cute!! :)

i MUST have a second kid!!!!!!! weeeeeeeeee.........

my hibiscus opus union square

Here's my super early birthdae gift from Ter! or izzit our 10th yr dating anniversary present?? Well, we haven't decided wats the occasion for it. Coz there was no particular recent occasion to justify such a splurge. Well, the onli justification for MR thrifty bruddy who survives very well on $3 chicken rice for mths, guess it's his luv for his beautiful wifey...and that's ME of course!!

But then, who needs an occasion to pamper his wifey who wakes up at funny hrs at nite to pacify his daughter??? :) Anyway, most importantly, its from Ter and it feels good to be pampered by ur hubby. After all, like any woman, i need the tender loving care of a man!!! i need a man's touch!!! haha ..Who cares about women's independence, financial freedom, woman's rights or " i dun need a man thingy" when ur hubby decides to pamper u!! I'll juz be a "little woman" when it comes to pressies....NOT for other issues!!! haha...

Anyway, it's been a bag spree last Sat. As Lign is due for delivery in 3 days times, i helped preggie Ligin get her ST Noel Small Vanessa Leather Bag with her instructions of 3 criteria: Black, leather and long strap. And she loved it!! :)

My MIL has been so sweet to us by taking care of dear Kielli whenever we are out for dates with frens and choir practices. She arranges for her sister to drive me to john little sale, feeds Kielli while i try on my clothes and shop, prepares breakfast for ter, takes care of Kielli and let me sleep till 10am on sat. She loves us so much. Indeed, tat's a mother's love.

We decided to pamper her and got her a Sembonia bag during the TAngs sale! Her smile said it all when she got the bag. And, my heart was warmed. It makes our day when we see mum happy! She's been so much happier since we shifted in with my inlaws with Kielli. My in-laws house is surely not as roomy as our own 5-room flat with own privacy, but i guess, it reallie makes mum happie to have her son n granddaughter around. And to us, her welfare is certainly important. I miss my house. But then, in life, i guess we juz have to give n take. We can't have the best of both worlds.

I hope one day, when Kielli grows up, she too will honor and love me with all her heart!! :) ANd pamper me too!!! haha...
