Eight Months! As in 8!

Shannon turned 8 months today! How time flies... looking back at all her skinny newborn photos, and laughing at some super silly ones, we realise that our little one is changing day by day!

Well, it be may concidental that I chose to buy a loadful of toys for her today, but still Happy 8th month, darling Shannon!

Mai Tu liao! Hurry, just Grab and talk later!

Talk about the auntie syndrome coming out of us when we become mummies! I've was 'infected' by it when a few of us mummies decided to go to the Mattel Toy fair yesterday...

CHAOS! That was the word to describe it! We arrived about 15min after it opened, and it was a mad house! Thank goodness Sophia and HB were there and already established a FORTRESS of toys which they hastily grabbed! If not, we would probably go hooe empty handed...

After spending about 3 hours there, I realised that in this game, if you snooze, you lose pal! So the name of the game is, Mai Tu liao! Just Grab and talk later... hahaha....

That said and done, we came out pretty victorious! My stolen bargains....:
1) FP Kick and Whirl Carnival
2) FP Popz On Circus
3) Winnie the Pooh
4) FP Rolls a ball
5) Sesame Street pop out
6) Elmo teaching and learning machine
7) FP Musical and Learning Chair (Star Buy! Thanks for Sophia and HB *Muack!*
8) FP Drop a Ball machine

Oops, after all the raving, I realised that not a word has been said that these are all for darling Shannon.... mummy's sorry, Shannon, of coz it's all for you... Mummy's.... just going through what you have... and having a little of fun doing it...!

Shopping Again! What's wrong with you people??

Bought Shannon out today to Forum to meet Wendy and Rena.... and of coz Ethan and Elijah....

Managed to get EB cereal for her and can't wait to try it out....

Haha, Shannon had a good time talking to Ethan today, sitting in their high chairs, and smacking each other faces with their chubby fists...oww!

Elijah fussed a little in his pram before Rena bought him over, and oops, Ethan decided that threes's a crowd and retreated to spend time with his mommy.

I am a Mighty Lioness - hear me ROARRRRR!

Well, what can I say? Our princess decided to play punk with us, and woke up from 2am in the morning, wailing away.... milk was eagerly consumed, but instead of going back to sleep like a little guai baby that she normally is, Shannon decided to stay awake and wail, and play and wail and play.... all the way till 5am.... attempts to smoothe her failed, and the pacificer was tossed around like a tennis ball.

The mightly lioness Shannon finally decided she had enough at 5am and dozed off, leaving both Mal and me totally zonked out and none the wiser... oh boy! I'm not looking forward to tonight if this was just a preview!


Hmmm, this mummy here is still thinkng whether both of us are in good enough form to go out and meet Auntie Rena, Auntie Wendy and Sumo and Ethan in the afternoon, after the big drama in the night...

What's A Swan???

By Shannon:

Mummy bought me to Botanic Gardens today, yippee...! It was only my 3rd time there, but it was fun! Coz Auntie Rena with my dearest Elijah, Auntie Wendy and Ethan, Aunty Val and Kirsten went along too... and I met another new friend today, baby Ian with Auntie Alice!


Mummy drove over to Auntie Rena's house to pick Elijah and her up... and Elijah was good company throughout the drive to the Bontanic Gardens.... hmm, had a serious discussion with him over toys, see us having chatting with each other?

I had a good time playing with my kakis.... except I was a bully and pulled Elijah's hair hard! Got a scolding from mummy for being a mean bully... sorry Elijah!! Promise I'll be good the next time... dun be angry ok?

We piniced near the swam lake, and mummy bought me to see the swans... what's a swan har? First time I ever saw those white things...

I was super tired but am raring to go again! Please mummy??



Mommy and Me!
