Cheezy Corn Cupcake

I received a call from Dylan's teacher requesting to bring a food item started with letter "C" (as they are now learning letter "C'" in letterland module). Other than the usual classroom learning, they would be having their first picnic neaby school. I was left with choices of cranberries juice and cupcake and .... (forgot) Thinking that children might not like sourish cranberries juice. Here came the "Cheezy Corn Cupcake" Cx3. It was my first time baking corn cupcake and they weren't tasted very yummy, OK la my guinea pig said eeatible!! AT least I baked something for him for his assignment! The feeling was ~~ so good~~

Celebration of Yuan Xiao Jie - 26 Feb 2010

The school organised a celebration of Lantern Festival - Yuan Xiao Jie in their 2-storeys lovely Pat's Schoolhouse compound.

There were family-fun filled activities for parents and kids and we were dressed up the best Chinese New Year costumes as to mark the end of Lunar Chinese New Year 2010.

Few activities we participated such as face/ arm painting, making glutinous rice balls and lantern, lion dance and drums playing.

Dylan refused to let the teachers to draw a tiger on his face, hence, a small one on his hand to make him happy whole day.

First Chinese New Year in Singapore

HApPy NeW yEaR !!
This is the first time we spending Chinese New Year in Singapore.
For the first time we own our first home-sweeet-home with first oriental decoration in our neighborhood! Daddy bought this lanterns in Msia and with Jiu Jiu's help, the lanterns were up with it blinking effects and were very eye catching!

Every passersby would stop and look at lanterns for a few second, Daddy feel so proud of it and complimented himself for having such a good taste chosen that lanterns. Mummy Preferred those simple big, red lanterns, somehow, she did not make a fuss as daddy like it so much!

Trying to wear pants

A 21 months old boy is trying to figure out wearing pants by himself. Struggling with the front and 2 holes for each leg, he got stuck with the 2 legs into a hole of a pant. Ended up managed to wear the pant for 1 leg only. Good try Dylan!!

DUriAn duRiaN

My hubby is a durian lover and hoping that Dylan would be just like him.
Looking at the pictures, he was indeed enjoying the king of fruits pretty much. Hmm... like father like son!

Talking ...

Dylan starts to speak a few words and non-stop repeating it everyday.

Favorite words ~ "MINE". Snatch things from us, saying MINE, refused to let ppl carry then hide his hands behind saying MINE, walking up the stairs saying MINE. MINE, MINE, MINE... I nearly go crazy by hearing this word.

Few words he likes to say:
Dylan: Dog (gou), cat( Mao), Fish (YU), bird (nao, instaed of niao)
Open - kai. He has mistaken the English "open" and mandarin "kai" is one word. Hence, he always tell us to open_kai something for him. That is so hilarious.

Helping in moving

We are moving to our new nest very soon. Busy packing and sorting things out. This boy was trying to give us a hand... but looking at the way he packed... he is giving us more things to re-packed...
