Adelle 2nd CNY

This year is Adelle 2nd CNY and of cos the difference is she seemed to enjoy more than last year. Why?

1. She gets to eat! Yes, uncles and aunties keep wanting to feed her food!

2. She gets to drink! She simply loves taking packet drink and self service to the straw then attempt to drink.

3. She gets to shop @ chinatown! Ha.. we brought her to squeeze with crowd @ the chinatown market. :P

The only thing that she has yet to appreciate is to receive angbaos. She will take and throw it on the floor despite a few nites of training that i have done with her but it doesn't seemed to work still. Unless there is cute picture like Hello Kitty, Cow, etc then she will hold on to it and look at the pic.

First Day - 26th Jan

Adelle wore a cheong sam bought by my sis and everyone say NICE! In the morning, we brought her to maternal grandparents house and my brother got a lion dance troupe to perform at my parents house at 9am. To our surprise, Adelle doesn't seem scared of lion dance nor the loud sound at all. She enjoyed watching the lion dance. Brave girl! After the lion dance, we went to do the usual house visitings at my relatives place. We only went back home around 4-5pm and Adelle managed to take a nap b4 hubby siblings came over in the night time and then Adelle was busy playing catching with her elder cousins. In case u are wondering how they play catching? Well, Airrence's nephew running around while Adelle busy crawling after him!

Second Day - 27th Jan

Adelle wore a bugs bunny dress that i bought long time ago. :P Very pinky!! We went over to my parent's place for lunch and over there, Adelle saw her "competitor". My cousin brought her daughter(3 mths younger than Adelle) and my dad carried the girl. Immediately, Adelle was angry and making noise + refuse to share toy/food and play with the girl. Haiz... jealousy girl..... : Thus, all my relatives were worried what will happen when #2 came out? Hopefully they will learn to love and share with one another loh. Keeping my fingers crossed and pray hard! At nite, we went over to Airrence's friends house and left at around 11+pm. Adelle was very tired cos she get to take any proper nap thoroughout the day. Poor baby. I think she dislike CNY cos her sleeping schedule is all upside down! :P

Sixth Day - 31st Jan

Airrence sister organised a BBQ cum birthday celebration for her daughter @ some park in Bishan. We went over in the morning to collect stingray and prawns from my dad and tot of depositing the stuff at his sis place but kenna rejected. As we never buy seafood during our grocery shopping thus our car never have fishy smells until then.. :( Anyway, we reached the park at 5pm and they have started to bbq. Food variety is not a lot and all are small eaters so there are a lot of food left. We had yu-sheng and then waited quite long for the birthday girl to come down to cut the cake. We are supposed to go for Jack & Suping house warming that same day and only reached their place around 8.30-9pm. Then we had another round of yu-sheng but i didn't get to eat also cos it's raw and preggy cannot take raw food mah... so sad! :( Last yr didn't eat too cos confinement and this year also... *sob sob*....

Seventh Day - 1st Feb

My secondary school friends came over to my house at 1.45pm for CNY gathering this year. We have to rush home after the little neurotree class end at 1pm and on the way buy snacks and food for the guests cos i don't have time to cook. Thank God that the class coordinator didn't delay me cos she didn't pressure me to sign up for the classes after our trial classes ended that day. So far i like the english and chinese class cos i can understand but not the jap class plus Adelle seemed very distracted and not attentive after the first class. :P Meggie and I agreed that we will sign them up when they are 2 yrs old and not when they can't even walk and can only understand 30% of what's being taught.

Back to the gathering, It's good to catch up with old friends once in a blue moon especially now everyone has a family. Also very happy to know that my friend Feng'e is getting married this year Oct! Congratulations to her & her hubby-to-be. :) After my friends left, we went for our 2nd anniversary photo shoot session at 6pm cos we missed it during Dec. It was abt 30mins and glad that the photgrapher managed to capture some nice shots for Adelle and a nice family pic to keep. Added bonus was we get 3 pieces of photo this time cos our friend just signed up Sophia a few days ago with my coordinator and she say give us 1 extra piece to thank us for recommending friends to them! :D

After photo session, we went over to the River Angbao and it was sooooo boring. Nothing interesting to see and Adelle was making so much noise and refuse to sit in her stroller!! :( Hubby carried her and she cried all the way from there to the carpark.. Haiz...
