Kite Festival 2012

Celeste repeated asked to bring her to the Kite Festival, we didn't want to make this another dull saturday too. So all of us went there with our kites to fly!

Caleb's happy to receive a goodie bag too.

 Enjoying the many kites in the sky, his first time seeing so many kites at a time..

 We had our little picnic by the garden too.

 Papa trying hard to fly his kite..

 Close up! Where is Caleb's double eyelid??

 And Faith was there too!

Broadcom Family Day

Weather was good today, not too sunny for a outdoor event! The kids enjoyed most today :)

Caleb was well behaved through out, good boy!

 Celeste has a out-going character, willing to try anything, unlike when she was younger.

 Giving everything a try!

 Javier trying out hand painting. also 7 years old.

 She's interested in anything, she registered herself in all available workshops.

 She always enjoyed hard and craft

 Zenith being very quiet, only followed on....

 Caleb joins in the fun!

 This time Aeon joined in too, he is also 5 like Zenith, they used to go to the same child care.

 Sept Babies, including Celeste, 15th Sept!

 Steffi our new colleague, with Eileen and Felicia's prince.

Cute Caleb

Very funny! He pose for a pic with a swimming cap/glasses + a wet drool!

Cute at all angles to me!

Poo Poo

Caleb says he needs to go poo poo, I didn't believe him but i brought him to the toilet anyway.
He sat there, balanced himself and started to poo, while i was busy trying to capture the moment.
Good boy Caleb! Caleb turned 20 months on Aug 27.

Rose goes off for good

It's Rose's last day in our household, she couldn't stop crying this morning. She's already missing Caleb and she has to go without saying bye to him. It's painful for her but its her choice she made...

Caleb on the other hand... cried alot in the day and more in the night. He didn't particularly looked for Rose but didn't want Cecile too. He couldn't take his naps normally and at night, it was worse. He wanted to go out to look for Rose. After 1.5 hours of crying, he finally fell asleep in my arms.We decided to let him sleep with us tonight, not sure of future plans.... there goes our undisturbed time at night.... Hope Caleb has a good night sleep tonight " sweet dreams my dearest baby"...

Motor Skills

Caleb could complete his shape sorting independently... well done boy!

No, I'm not going to sleep!

This little boy, refused to sleep even though he's sooo sleepy! At one point, he even got angry with himself for falling asleep. Funny little boy!

Doughworkz by PastaMania

Celeste attended the Doughworkz by PastaMania organized by the school. She got to experience hands on in making pizza and get to enjoy the "CHICKEN HAM & MUSHROOM" pizza she made herself. She didn't like pizza in the past, now she says she loves pizza! Pizza making is so much fun!

Celeste's Progress Report

Celeste Meets expectation in the following:

• General Behavior
• Hands in homework on time
• Returns worksheets requiring parents' signature on time
• Pays attention in class
• Mathematics Calculation & Application
• English Grammar and Vocabulary
• English Composition
• English Comprehension (can be more careful)

Approach Expectation 

• Writes neatly and clearly. (Handwriting can be better). She has the tendency to erase and correct, making the sentence v messy.

Personally, i think she is coping in school except that she is extremely careless in her school work, we are constantly reminding her to correct this habit. 

Chinese -> Progress seems good.

Maths -> Has improved but she is still weak in this subject, she doesn't seem to understand the question even after many practices. Somehow you just get boiled when you teach her maths! ha!

English -> Spelling is good but grammar is not as good. She needs more practice.

Here's my little cousin ~ Xavier Lam, he looks so adorable now!

Our Family Photo

I'm looking forward to a decent family portrait :-)

Here's one we took ourselves, went for a outdoor shoot today probably done by an amateur, result was not satisfactory, Caleb was not cooperative, its tough to have 5 pairs of eyes looking at the camera and smiling at our best. It was hot and tiring too. In the end, we did not take up their collection. 5 shots seem enough!

Caleb seems OK with Yi Po touching his hair! This happens only after we signed up a package with Curly & Spike, haiz. Hope he gets less fussy as he grows older.
