A day at Universal Studio

Brought the kids to the Theme park, the kids had lots of fun and i find it enjoyable too. :)


The kids having lots of fun trying out the different types of hats:)

Loved the vintage look of the background, think its a theatre??

Outside the Ogle's house.



Brice and Kayden tried rock climbing...

Brice managed to climb up very high, he could have reached the top, but he got abit scared, cos of the height and wanted to come down....

Kayden did not go very far up, as they let him try out the more "advanced stage", and he does not have the x-factor when it comes to sports. Its ok, we can go for more tries elsewhere, and he will be able to do it better the next time round:)

My Birthday (backdated)

Been so busy with our new home and work, i have no time to blog...
Let's start with my birthday, and will try to continue tomorrow....
We booked a room in Swissotel for 2 days to celebrate my Birthday.
Nice place and the kids enjoyed it alot. We enjoyed plenty family time spent together and the kids are quite reluctant to go home.... haha.... Only minus point was no free parking, but luckily the parking wasn't very ex in the hotel.


It's a shame that we did not take a family photo for this outing, but i will remember it the next time:)

As the kids want to spend more time in the hotel room, and room service food only so so there, we went down stairs to pack some food to eat in the room. The place is very accessible and convenient and plenty of good food around:)

Nice View from the room.

Mei Mei's latest fav Cartoon Character

Mei's fav cartoon now is Hello Kitty! She loves any thing that has Hello Kitty:) Her slipper is Hello Kitty, and so is her school shoes, clothes and even Hello Kitty toys. She simply loves it!

The old times

We chanced upon a small snack shop, that sells these small boxes of chocolates.

Yes! we used to loved these cute little box of chocolates that comes with small little toys that amuses us!

We brought 2 each for the kids, telling them that we used to like eating these when we are young.....

Kayden very curious about what's in it:)

School holidays

During the school holidays, we took a day off and brought the kids to Cafe Del Mar again:)

Its a gloomy afternoon, so not much sun and water was a bit too cool.....

Nevertheless, i still find it a great place to bring the kids to, with the pool, the beach, cosy place and the must have nice cold beer.

I tried the new fruity beer, as there's a discount, but still find hoegarden a better choice:)

Snapping away with my new iphone, as we forget to bring our camera along....

Yes, a fun time in the pool!

Potty training - 32months

Today Mei Mei took off her pampers and told me that she wants to go to the toilet, as she needs to pee.

Being tricked too often, i did not take much notice of her words. i asked her if she's sure??
She then told me that its because I had told her that its time she learns how to go to the toilet.

I continued to ignore her, until she shouted at me, and telling me that her pee is coming out!
I rushed out of the room and got the potty for her.

After that, she's very proud of herself and passed the potty to me, saying: see? got "she she".....

Its another step for her to be fully toilet trained. **Yeah**

CNY!

We went to Phuket on 2nd day of lunar CNY.

Great scenery at the Big Buddha hill

The Big Buddha

In our Hotel room~ Baby and I wearing the same shirt!:)

On our way to Phi Phi island.

Snorkelling near Phi Phi island. Nice experience, but tiring trip, the boat ride is too long.

Baby playing in the bathtub....

Private pool in our hotel room:) But swam only once ... ....

Thai Massage on the beach! :)

I put this pic last, as i don't feel comfortable in this so called Monkey school.....

The monkeys are caged and chained, and sometimes forced to perform....

Perhaps we are not in their shoes, and maybe forced to circumstances, people have to resort to such ways to earn a living, in order to survive.

Really wish that they had use more humane ways to train the monkeys, and hope they will treat the monkeys better in the future.....
