Hehehee, who would have thought that Kion would have her 1st pet at 32mth old... And, the pet she actually got 4 herself r 3 fat goldfishes=p... Me, 4 one wouldn't had expected as she had never b4 mentioned that she liked fishes (it was puppy all the while which she had been urging us 2 buy).
Anyway, the story goes like this, Kelvin & Daddy brought us 2 a few fish farms again on a sunny saturday afternoon(25th Sept 2010), then at 1 of the fish farm, Rainbow, I think, Winnie saw some, dunno what breed of goldfish & decided that she wanted 2 keep some at her home... Then Kion, being the busybody, realized that her 'ah yi' catching some goldfish home as pet, decided that she too, should get some from the other tank, different breed, as pet....
As the price of the goldfishes there were 3 for $5, both Winnie & Kion each got 3 goldfishes.... & Kelvin bought a small tank specially 4 Kion 2 put her goldfishes in. Actually, the timing seems perfect cos after settling the fishes, I received a email from Teacher Bianca which says that lesson on monday(27th Sept 2010) would be on the pets they have & 2 bring a picture of their pets should they have 1.
Sunday was done with lots of coaxing & explaining 2 Kion just so that she would pose with her new pets 4 me 2 take a picture, for her 2 bring 2 school. By 8pm on sunday, I had had the photos taken, pictures printed out, but who would have expected that when we woke up this morning, 1 of the goldfish was dead=(
Well, at least we still have 2 goldfishes in the tank, & 9 kois in the water feature, previously 6, but due 2 the fish farm trip on sat, 3 more were added...
Yet 2 my dismay, both Father & daughter decided that they needed 1 more goldfish 2 makeup 4 the 1 which had died & happily brought me 2 a fish farm along Jalan Kayu 2 make their purchases today afternoon=(
I am actually dead tired cos this darling daughter of mine had woke up at 6am this morning, but tot I should enter this post so tat if Kion does have a chance 2 read when she grows up, she would at least know the date she 1st kept her own pet & what her pet was...=)

Kion's auntie Nina, is back!!!
Yes, Nina is back!!!! Hmmmm.... I'm kind of in despair, cos my so-called freedom & privacy is gone & I dunno what 2 do=((( Ok ok, I know that its not like Nina is lousy or whatever, but its just that I had never liked having a helper at home, even since young.....
I 4got since when did Mummy started hiring maids , but I knew that I had never liked any of them. the reason was simple: they were always damaging my branded clothes, ruining their colours with I wonder what sort of detergent, & I took months 2 save $$$$ 4 those clothes( mummy & daddy never allowed me 2 buy branded unless I bought them using my own allowance).
Anyway, I think i'm gonna do a transfer 4 her 2 mummy's place asap as I saw her bringing Kion 2 the toilet 2 'pee pee' this morning & worst still,she actually waited 4 Kion throughout the process & wanted 2 help Kion with every step=( But isnt all these done by Kion, herself, when 'Auntie Nina' wasn't here???
I want Kion 2 be independent, so having Nina around is a major obstruction cos Nina wants 2 help Kion in everything & worst of all, /nina doesnt listen 2 me when I gives instructions.... Hmmm, I know I'm a failure when it comes 2 situation like this, dunno whether is it bcos I look 2 young that even my maid doesnt wanna listen 2 my instructions or mayb I'm just not firm enough....
Anyway, Nina is not a lousy helper, she does help me 2 keep my house clean n tidy 24/7, although she is rather slow at work sometimes.....
Hmmm.... looks like I just have 2 give myself some time 2 look at the situation & decide if Nina should b here or transfer 2 Mummy (cos she may not want 2 go 2 Mummy's place too as I can see that she does love Kion a lot too).

A Happy Friday (17-9-2010)!!!
Hmmm.... how should I start???
Just wanted 2 post this particular moment which happened tonight so that I wont forget it even in later part of my life....
Okok, it began in the car, when we were on our way home after dinner & I started rubbing my right eye cos it was suddenly very itchy. Kelvin:" Look Kion, Mummy's eyes r spoilt & she's blind cos she kept rubbing." Kion, turned 2 look at me rubbing my eyes, suddenly bursted out crying with the ice-cream still in her mouth:"Mummy, I dont want u 2 become blind, I love u so much Mummy...".
Oooooh, so sweet rite? Hehehee... I was so touched & quickly conforted her saying that Daddy was just joking & Mummy would never become blind =p
Seriously, my heart melted when I saw her cry, but I was also kind of guilty 2 make her feel so upset =( cos it was actually a fun & happy nite out 4 us.
Anyway, we had dinner at a nearby italian restaurant, named Etna, we had wanted 2 try out the many reataurant nearby the stretch of rd toward our house, 4 quite sometimes, but always had no chance.... There r still many restaurant which I would slowly explore, like the Megumi, Wines on Vines etc etc....
I ordered a grill salmon with prawn & dunno what sauce, Kelvin ordered a crayfish sphagetti,a bottle of house wine, Regalia or what??? & Kion, an over-sized pizza....The food was fantastic, definitely worth going again,even the wine, I usually dont believe in house wines, cos it like cheap wines selling at a high profit, but this one tasted great=) The waiter warned us that reservation is a must if we were going down on a wkend cos it could get quite packed sometimes....
After dinner, we went 2 get some ice-cream at The ice-cream cafe nearby, but the ice-cream there seriously just doesnt taste as good as those at Udders =( After buying ice-cream, we went back 2 the car 2 proceed home & that was when the sweet incident took place=p
Just b4 gg 2 sleep just now, Kion sang "My Family" 2 Kelvin & me but this time round, she sang it like this" This is my father, I call him naughty daddy, this is my mother, I call her good mummy..." Hahahaaa.... such a sweet nite it is for me=)
Or was it the effect of the wine taking place now???? anyway, sweet dreams=)

Day 1 of Term 4
Well, well, well, all have been well, except for the occasionally of having a basket full of un-ironed clothes, I have been able 2 cope well without the help of a maid =)
Of cos I am happy cos it makes me feel much much more useful at home. I know mummy has been complaining abt how silly I am, when I told her that Kelvin & I actually feels better, having more privacy, without Nina at home. I do understand how mummy feels, but its bcos she's working & there is always plenty of household chores 2 be done by her as Daddy & Winnie doesnt help out at home. But 4 me, its different cos I dont have a very active social life & also I'm not working.... therefore, having a tight schedule like this is quite fun 4 me as I get 2 spend more time with Kion, eating with her, prepares her lunch & dinner, then pretend 2 nap with her, and quickly get up to do the housework when she had fallen asleep =)
Anyway, today is the 1st day of school after a one wk break. I was initially worried that Kion might not wanna go 2 school after having so much fun last wk, we went 2 the Zoo, the Bird Park(but didnt went in cos it was raining heavily), Fish farm, & the Barney concert show. Its Kion's first time attending a concert as well=) I hope that after this Barney show, she would b more willing 2 attend other concert show in future cos all these while, she refuses 2 attend any show everytime we want 2 bring her....
Hmmmm.... Nina will b back next wk, then I can have abit of freedom back, but frankly speaking, I'm toying with the idea of not having a maid cos I also feels that Kion seems 2 b more well-behaved without Nina's presence. But I wonder if Kelvin would agree, & without a helper at home
means no more own time 4 things like going 4 pedicures, IPLs, etc etc.=(
Better consider it carefully, anyway, there's still a basket of clothes waiting 4 me....

1st day of the Sept Holidays!
Yipee, today is the 1st day of the sept holidays & we went 2 the Zoo. Think it has been abt more than a year since we last brought Kion 2 the Zoo cos the weather in SG is really too hot, a major reason as 2 y we kept putting off plans to bring Kion there again.
Anyway, I remember that when we first brought Kion to the Zoo, she was probably abt 1yrs old. At that time, she doesn't really noticed the animals there, but this time round, things have changed....
As usual, being the timid girl, she backed out last min when we were in the car, kept refusing 2 go, saying that the tigers & lions were fierce & might eat her up??? Wonder where she got these facts from???
After lots of coaxing & lies told, we finally managed 2 get Kion 2 agree with our plan 2 go to the Zoo & arrived at abt 10am. When we went in the Zoo & Kion saw the animals, I think all fears were gone & I could see that she really enjoyed herself. Poor Kelvin, we rented a trolley/pushcart, to pull Kion in it, but Jolie wanted 2 sit in it too, therefore Kelvin had 2 struggle with pulling 50kg of weight up & down, right & left, for the few hours we spent at the Zoo.
I would have wanted 2 let the kids stay at the Zoo longer if not 4 the fact that Winnie has got tuition at 4pm & the toys rental delivery man said that he would arrive at my place 2 deliver the slide I rented between 3-5pm =( (its my 1st time renting toys, wonder if its good 2 rent? at least when Kion got bored by the toy, I can just return, dont need 2 find space 2 chuck it)
Due 2 time constraint, I couldnt allow Kion 2 go for the horse & elephant rides, but we did saw the elephant's show & took the carousel. No worries, cos I promised her that we would go back to the Zoo very soon 2 complete whatever areas not covered & whatever rides not taken=)
We'll also b going 2 the Bird Park on wednesday=) I seriously have 2 thank Kelvin 4 making time 4 Kion & me.
Btw, Nina left last night. She should have reach her home by now, although I dont no y havent she called 2 inform us that she's safely home=(
Hmmm.... that's how irresponsible they sometimes could b...
Well, I hope she's safe though....

Excited cum nervous =p
Hehe, Nina is going back to Indonesia this sunday, to celebrate Hari Raya with her family. Time flies, coming Jan would be her 3rd yr with us.... All these while she haven't went back even once, I wonder if she misses her family???
I did offer 2 let her go home during Jan this yr, but she refused, saying she would rather stay in SG 2 work.... Anyway, this time round, she'll b going back 4 abt 2wks, N, its time 4 me to PERFORM=)
Hehe, like real.... I just realized that I haven't been picking up the mop 4 the past 3yrs but am wondering how tough can it be right? Haven't I been doing the house-work daily since Primary 6??? Think all should b fine, except that I now have a little Darling 2 occupy my time & I seriously wonder if I can cope???
Not 2 worry, not 2 worry, take this opportunity 2 mayb burn the extra KGs which I had recently put on, also a good chance 4 me to asses my own capability as a SAHM =) I CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT!!!
ok, quick update, this mth, Kion seems not so interested in doing painting at the painting stall at Parkway already, mayb she's been doing it too frequently, tat's y lost interest.... She even allowed or I should say WANTED Kelvin 2 complete her last piece of work last Monday at Parkway=(
Kion also started her 1st ballet lesson today, N she seriously looks cute in her ballet attire=) She wasn't afraid & timid like b4, n She did enjoy her lesson ( I didnt even need 2 stay for observation), however, she requested 2b enroll 4 Guitar classes as well=p??? Hmmm....I dont think there's guitar class 4 children this age right, I mean how can they carry the guitar when they r so tiny???
