Melaka Day 2

Melaka Day 1

Swimming!

Daddy & Mommy brought me swimming again. This time round, I truly enjoyed myself although I was initially a little scared about getting into the cold water. But I've learnt to conquer my fear.


Hi, do I look gorgeous in my hollywood star swim suit?


I had a lot of fun in the water with Daddy.

I Can Crawl!

Note from Mommy: The little one finally "graduated" to the REAL crawl aka on all fours.

We went to the Zoo Zoo Zoo!

I went to the zoo with Mommy, Daddy, Gong-gong and Mah-mah!



First, the adults have lunch at Five Star Chicken Rice along Bukit Timah Road.



Mommy, stop taking pictures, can you quickly finish your food so that we can move on??



We reached the zoo at around 1pm. Daddy's our tour guide. With a map in hand, he guided us round the zoo.



The zoo is very big, there're alot to cover. So we must hurry!!



While the adults pant and sweat walking, I was enjoying the scenery in my BMW. But soon, it started to rain and we have to take cover in a pavilion.



Along the way, we came across the statue of Ah Meng. Gong-gong said he's supposed to be very famous. I don't know him but I'm still delighted to pose for a photo with Gong-gong.



That's me posing for photos with Daddy and Gong-gong with the White Tiger!



We stopped to watch the animal show at the amphitheatre. Daddy didn't like the show, he said the old version is much better. I don't really enjoy the show either.




We finally came to the Rainforest KidzWorld. We were first greeted by the carousel.

I wasn't interested in a ride. Rather, I'm more interested in MILK! I am so hungry! And so we stopped by at the KFC for a short break while I recharge with a dose of my favourite milk.



There is a water play area where many many children were happily playing. I looked at them enviously, but I can't go into the water because we've not brought along my swimming costume. How disappointing! Can we come again?

In this newly added attraction, there is a farm where you can find alot of animals.



With the sheeps...



With the ponies and falabellas...



Inside the Kampung House where Daddy pretended to cook...

Walking through the maze..

Through the Dino Walk....

Trying out the exercise bars...

Big rat, little rat and the grassy rat...

By the end of the day, we are all tired and sweaty, but we all had fun!

Daddy, are we coming back soon?

Our Little Ballerina

I saw this little dress and can't resist trying it on Tessa. She looks extremely adorable in it. If only her hair is longer, she'll look gorgeous, won't she?

HRC

Auntie Nora invited us to Hard Rock Cafe for lunch. It's the first time I'm there. It's quite a cool place. As usual, I became Auntie Jiahui's favourite photo subject.

After lunch, Daddy took me shopping and admire more Christmas lightings.

Tessa's Passport

Yeah! I have my own passport now!

Daddy said I'm a big girl now since I can travel to places and leave home on my own. Where to, Daddy? I don't want to be anywhere without Mah Mah, OK?

Christmas Lightings

Ah Mah, Ah Gong and Mommy brought me to Orchard Road for some Christmas shopping and to see the Christmas decorations.

Orchard Road is decorated with many many colourful lights and lollipops! And there is this Christmas tree in the mall that is sooooooo tall! It's decorated with many many golden little lights. So pretty! We took many many photos and bought many many new toys!

Planning for Christmas

I've always loved Christmas.

This year, I'm once again looking forward to the festive season, and I want to make Tessa's first Christmas extremely wonderful (even though she is not going to remember any part of it).

We're going to bring her on a road trip to Melaka on Boxing Day. Other than that, I've been thinking hard what else to do for Tessa for Christmas.



I've been contemplating a tree at home. But, I'm afraid it'll become a hazard at home. But I'd really love to have a Christmas tree at home. Haiz... Dilemma.

For Daddy

Preparing for Tessa's First Plane Trip

I've been making a mental note to prepare a list of things to pack into Tessa's suitcase for Bali.

Yes, we are all going to Bali over the CNY. It'll be Tessa's first plane trip with Daddy, Mommy, Ah Gong and Ah Mah. So excited. Well... alright, I am so excited, the little girl has absolutely no clue what is in for her.

A zillion questions zoom past my mind. How many disposable diapers to bring? Can we bring bottles of water and applesauce on board? etc etc etc...

A Rare Quiet Moment

Jiahui took this photo of Tessa when we were at Nora's place to see Baby Ruben. Such a wonderful shot of her! I love it!

She was lying against my leg, taking a break after showing off her commando crawl to the audience who watched with awe. Daddy said she looks like she's in deep thoughts. Well, our girl is a deep one really.

She develops this desire in me to want to craft her spirit. She lets me bask in her love every single day. Hand in hand, we make memories together. She makes me understand what motherhood is all about. Her exuberant innocence is delightful. She makes me laugh. She makes me think. She makes me want to be a better person so that I can teach her right. She makes me marvel at the miracle of life.

I love her.

Funny Headgears

Cute little baby Shrek


Daddy, you look so weird in that funny looking hat! I almost don't recognize you!!


Finally, baby Shrek and the funny balloon hat man.

Posing for Passport Photo

We tried so hard to get Tessa to sit still for her passport photo. The above are what we managed to get from her.

Our Little Cabbie

Wiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!! I love driving around in my little cab!!! It's so fun, I can go from the room to the living room to Daddy's room to the kitchen, all by myself!!!

Hmm... err.. No, I don't think I can take any passengers. You'll have to walk beside me.

So adorable!

Our little girl is getting extremely adorable, now that she has two little teeth and has learnt to crawl and make funny faces.

Growing Tessa

See how our little precious has grown over the months.

Mr Policeman and His Fav Girl

Woohoo!!! We're in safe hands because we've a policeman at home!!

Our Little Commando

Yesterday, our little one managed to move forward on her own. Yes, she can crawl now!

But she does so not exactly on her all fours, but rather she does it commando crawl style. Very stylo, right?

Do stay tuned for photos and videos.
