Princess Danelle is 6 months old on 21st Dec

Danelle can sit on her own very well since 22 weeks and she also started her first semi solid 2 weeks back too! Reason being Danelle doesnt seemed like to drink EBM so Mummy decided to start introducing semi-solid earlier. Anyway, we are glad that Danelle is taking the cereal pretty well and seemed enjoying it too! :)

Mummy bought Healthy Time and Nestle cereal for Danelle to try but Danelle prefer Nestle cereal more. In addition, mummy also got a new expensive toy for Danelle! It's the Avent steam and blend machine. Thanks to one of the June mummy who works in Philip, mummy managed to get 40% discount off the retail price($199) for this machine. Making puree is such a breeze with this machine. All i need to do is cut the food/fruits into cube then steam for few minutes and finally blend it! Mummy has been doing fruits puree like apple and pear puree to add into Danelle cereal and of cos Danelle loves it! Other puree that Mummy has done are avocado, potato, sweet potato and carrot puree! Highly recommend this gadget to Mums who want to prepare baby food with minimum time. Previously during Adelle's time, I bought the silly pigeon food maker and that take long time to prepare puree thus Adelle & I never likes puree food. Unlike Adelle, Danelle loves puree food cos it is nicely and fastly done by this new toy! *Thumbs up*

3rd Wedding Anniversary - 16th Dec 2009

It was our 3rd wedding anniversary and we got 2 kids already! :) As 16th Dec is a weekday so hubby & i took leave to spend the day together. We went for spa session in the afternoon and ended up we signed a spa packages! Well guess that is the only thing we both enjoy doing other than eating now... whahahaaaa... :P

As usual, hubby will order flowers from his favourite online florist and this time, it doesn't have bear but chocolates instead. Coincidentally i bought alcohol chocolate for him so ended up our house is full of chocolate in Dec! :)

In the evening time, we brought the family out for dinner at Timbre @ Old school. Hmm.. kinda wrong choice of venue for our dinner cos they doesnt provide proper chairs and we ended up standing to eat. Of cos the kids doesnt have baby chairs too so they are behaving like "monkeys'! Haiz.... we didnt really enjoyed the dinner though the food is nice! We loved the pizza and margarita! So we quickly finished off the meal and headed home.

It was a simple celebration but what matters was we still get some private time together and we still love each other.. hehee.. :P To my dearest hubby, Happy Anniversary & love u deep deep... *Muacks*

Christmas gathering with SMH June 09 mummies @ Serene's condo

It gonna be christmas and the mummies suggest to meet up to celebrate christmas. This time round, the organiser is createjoy and serene host the event at her condo bbq pit. Reason being there is no function room at her Condo @ Regent's Park.

As createjoy aka Rosalind doesn't drive so i volunteered to help to buy drinks and snacks from Old Chang Kee using the agreed budget of $5 per head to buy curry puff, fish ball, sotong ball, spring rolls, etc and bring on that day. All of us brought our family there and we have some simple games organised by createjoy. The best part was we got pple sponsor the prizes for us. However, the sponsor was at the gathering and want us to listen to their product introduction and well hopefully buy some bb stuff from them. The sponsor is selling bb items like combi weaning bowl, baby walker, knee pad, etc. If i am not wrong, none of us bought anything except Createjoy cos she paiseh that the sponsor gave us 3 prizes ie a combi weaning bowl, cup and a baby walker.

The first quiz was guess who is the baby. We supposed to bring our new born pics and guess who is who. I didn't managed to guess them right cos some of the baby have changed so much since born. Then we suppose to have the next game - change diaper competition but everyone decided that it's too mah fan to change diaper at the bbq pit so we didn't proceed with the game. Then we have christmas present exchange for the baby and finally a lucky dip which is a baby walker. Guess what? I won the baby walker!!! Hahaha.... I was told to pick up a piece of crumpled paper by Createjoy and when she open up, she called "Debbie" and i say "Yes? "Then she told me I am the winner... hahahaha... I picked myself as the winner so funny loh... :)

It was a nice gathering as some new mummies joined in this gathering besides the usual ones like Katty and Regina whom i often met up with. :)

Planet 51 - Adelle first movie @ cinema

Yeah Yeah Yeah! I got free movie tickets, free popcorns, free hotdog buns, free drinks and movie premiums for Planet 51! Brought my nephews, niece and Adelle to watch the movie n 7th Dec at 7.30pm @ Shaw Lido.

Initially the seats that i got are all over the cinema. But i managed to swap some tickets with my colleagues and able to get 1 row of 4 and 2 sets of double seats that are quite near to the row of 4. So we can all sit together and Adelle can choose who she want to sit with too! Ha...

To my surprise, Adelle behaved well throughout the show cos she gets to eat popcorn crumbs and she seemed to enjoy the show too. Good girl! Mummy can bring you go and watch more cartoon movie the nxt time. :)

Ideas for family friendly dining place

Bringing Adelle out for dinner is a challenge sometimes cos she finished her food faster than us. Thus, need to look for ideas where to go for dining. Saw the link and shall explore the recommendation when i am free... hehee... :P

Swim date with SMH June 09 mummies @ Derrica's condo

Received a call from one of my SMH friend last wk that they are organising a private swim date on a weekday so i took leave and went to meet them yesterday. I brought my maid and Danelle to the swim date and we took MRT to Compasspoint condo.

To my surprise, I was one of the few early ones who reached the MRT. Derrica met us at waiting area and brought us to the condo. The security seemed lacking as she only tell the guard that "I stay here" and he let us in without asking for her residence pass?!?! Hmm.. Anyway, we head straight to the pool area and there is another group (some MH gathering) too. So the pool was packed!

I changed Danelle into her swim suit and put her bath robe. One of the mummies Shannon say Danelle look like some hotel guest.. hahaaa... Then we brought the babes into the pool and only Kaley enjoyed it while Danelle and Sermaine were crying and thus, they only get a quick dip and then out of the pool.

Since Danelle and Sermaine don't want to swim so we went up to Derrica house to change them while waiting for the rest to join us. After shower, Danelle doze off as she is used to have morning nap.

Then came Noah,Genieve and Kaley and we put the babies together to take pics. It was funny how they grab things from one another due to the squeezy mat. :) It was a enjoyable gathering as we chit chat and talk about the new pple who joined the thread. When i was on my way to the MRT, i bump into my gynae and he seemed to recognise me and smile at me... ha.... :P

VS Lip Gloss

My colleague came back from USA for holiday last week and just now he pass me a "souvenir". I was very surprised that he show me a paper bag full of Victoria Secrets Lip Gloss and asked me to pick 1... hahaa.... So interesting... And i pick the swirl lip gloss cos i find the colors quite interesting.. :P

It was very nice of him cos these days hard to find single guy who went holiday and buy such stuff for colleagues or friends loh. The usual stuff that pple give are magnets, food or cute little stuffs... so it is something different this time.

The lip gloss comes in useful cos the one that i had was bought in 2006... :D
