VENICE'S AMAZING ATTENTION TO DETAILS

Daddy with his princess!

My, my, dunno why but I'm always amazed by Venice!

The things she say always had me stumped. Just one of our conversation today:


I was bathing her and got to talking about the beach (coz I am planning a beach holiday).


Me : Wern, do you like the beach?
Venice : Yes!
Me : What do you like about the beach?
Venice : *thinking but not saying anything*
Me : Do you know what's a beach? What do you have at the beach?
Venice: .......umm, bouncy ball, umbrella to cover from the sun, bucket and spade.....sand castle! I know how to make a sand castle! First, you take a pail, then put sand in it, then take out the sand and you have a sand castle already!
Me : *speechless*

Venice and her princess obsession

Oh yeah, and did I mention where did she get this insights to detail? Peppa Pig....

Continuing her pink obsession

With her 4 Chopin class teacher, Mrs Kwong

On Friday, she had her year end class party and also to celebrate Children's Day. As I might be changing her school next year, I thought it'd be a good idea to snap some pictures of her with her friends. End up they don't want to take pictures....dunno what's on the minds of children these days. So just a pic with her teacher.

PRE-HOLIDAY UPDATES

 Holidays are almost starting, and we can feel our stress level going down because we don't have to be so strict with school time what with Nic already beginning his hols with the SPM exams. Also, we can feel our business picking up. Hope that it's a good sign, that it can last for a long, long time. Quite a few times already, we get random last minute calls for balloon or clown jobs which is good as some are on weekdays which didn't coincide with our other events. But somehow, all the rushing leads to a decrease in quality which I'm not too happy about.

Having to help with Wei sometimes and looking after Andrick is VERY, VERY TIRING!!! He is super active, moving non-stop, and is especially irritating when we are busy lol. Right now though, he's so cute crawling around the house making really fast thumping sounds on the floor....THUM, THUM, THUM, THUM,.....this boy can really crawl at high speed!

Andrick....

Always having so much to say....

But not making any sense....

And today is Wei's birthday.....44th birthday to be exact....wow, I feel old already! Here's one for the album...

And another....

 

And another...

Just a simple fluffy cheesecake...nothing too fancy. Hehe....ok, that's all.

REFLECTION...

Wow, so much have happened these 2 weeks! MIL passed away at 2 something early morning of 21 October. The ensuing drama (what I meant was the traditional rites...the dong dong chiang) was....eye-opening!

We have to 'buy' two maids and a driver for mom, then name them, fixed a salary for them, etc. If it wasn't a sombre affair, it would have been quite funny. Anyway, just wanted to say this.....RIP Mom. It's so sudden that sometimes I think back and wonder....how could this happen in so short a time???

Ahhhhhhh!!!

On another note, today's another milestone for Andrick! I think he just learned his first word. By first I mean that he consistently form the same sound over and over again when being prompted. And the word is..........wait for it, COME. Though it came out sounding like DUM....DUM....DUM..... What an anti-climax huh? You would have thought it'll be DADDY or MOMMY or KOKO or CHE CHE. It was when I was feeding him his dinner and being Andrick, he's walking around being busy, and I have to keep saying...come, come....Andrick come....when suddenly he started imitating me! Hahahaha.......silly boy.
