I'm really glad that we still remained contact till now... Grace, Zhi & Thea I've known since my Secondary school days... also very long... :) hahah...

As we wanted to have steamboat, the whole group of us met up at my plc on saturaday to celebrate Sharron's birthday.... cheaper, cosier and cooler... hahaha... :) I hope u guys enjoyed the food ya... :) the company as always was fabulous... Sharron... All the best to yr new job which you'd be startin very soon... :) Dun forget to let us know at least 1 week in advance before u fly off to anywhere hor...

Sharron's new job requires her to travel almost every other week to various parts of Asia Pacific... very good exposure... and very good opportunity to travel... *envious* hehehe... I'm sure we can expect lots of opportunities to get things overseas liao... kekeke... provided she has the time to go shopping for us wor... kekek... :)

Besides birthday wishes... there was also good news to share... Lian Hoon is now 4 months preggy with Baby No. 2!!! Congrats wor~ :) Jus in time for the new baby bonus scheme. Hehehe... U'll be busier when junior arrives wor... but I'm sure you'll love every minute of it :)




Here's our Birthday Girl with her cake that Thea ordered from Island Creamery... Unique and delicious... It's like those mudpie ice-cream cake... Yummy!!~




Our little something that we got for Sharron... Hope you like it wor... heheh... =)



To end the birthday celebration, Sharron hitched a ride from Grace's new ride... a Porsche!!~ Icing on top of the cake!! Rich man's daughter... 2 minis and a Porsche in the family tSk* *tSk* Garry and me got a ride back to Hougang to get papa's car as we were going back to Hougang on Sunday. Had lots of errands to run wor...


1st, after lunch, we went to collect the long awaited dog tags and collars from Channel Pets :) YiPPy!! Everything looks so lovely... I cant wait to match every tag for each of their collars... Hopefully there will still be some left... and no shortage wor... kekeke... But a little birdie told me that there will be another round of orders soon... kekekek... I haf to control this round liao... Cant order too many tags liao... hehehehe.... :) Cant wait to let them use their other collars now that all of them belong to a tag!~



Then we went to fetch Koko from her plc and subsequently we went to Tampiness St 43 to collect the dog beds that I ordered for my darlings!~ :) The minute I tore open the plastic cover, Toby jumped into the bed without waitin for me to finish arrangin the mattress.... KNS!!~ Kan Chiong Spider lor... kekeke... n he kept rolling around and didnt want to get out... Aiyoz... had to carry him out lor... hahaha... :)

This is where their beds are in my room :) Slping side by side... when both of them lie flat in their bed, they cant see each other at all... hahaha... Tamy will start to hop in n out of bed to see where her korkor is... or jus to come n lick us or simply being a kpo walking everywhere in the room. hehehe... :) but she looks so cute hopping in n out... she seems to be hafin a jolly good time...

We went to Ikea after collecting the beds. There, I bought the comforter that I used to cover the mattress in the bed... feels cooler for them and also cleaner... cos its easier to wash the comforter as compared to the mattress. kekeke.. :) Lazy mummy... While we were there, we saw this big soccer ball soft toy and I bought 1 for them to play. Toby loves playing this ball... hahaha... :) I also bought this box to keep all their toys... not so messy this way!!~ All these great buys were bought from the kids section in Ikea... kekeke... :)




This is how my 2 darlings wake me up every morning... esp my Chow Chwee Gigantor... heee... the 1st thing I see when I open my eyes in the morning are my darlings... once Toby knows that I'm 1/2 awake, he will jump onto the bed to lick me n roll over me... My Princess will continue standing at the side of the bed as she still hasnt reali mastered the art of jumping onto my bed yet... kekeke... but she never fails to keep jumpin and will use her paw to try and scratch me...



After playing with them last nite, both ended playing with each other on their respective beds... hehehe... jus look at Toby gettin all comfy in his meimei's bed... hehehe... And of cos, Tamy had to haf her share of squeezing in korkor's bed as well... :)




I managed to catch these 2 shots of them sleeping jus as I was about to turn in for the nite... Both looked so comfy in their own beds... they must be dreaming soundly liao... :)



This is the box that I was referring to... :) $12+ onli wor... cheap and good... keeps their play area neat... hehehe... I tried takin a pic of them taking out their toys from the box but they were both too fast... by the time i got my cam ready, they were oredi busy fighting over the same toy somewhere in the living room... hehehe... :)



Tamy looking all grumpy as korkor ran away with the toy that she wanted to play... hahaha...



Well... there isnt much to look forward until this sat cos there will be a Mahjong cum Steamboat Gathering at my plc with the kakis from work!! :) And this time round, everyone is able to make it! Heheh... which is very good... I cant wait lor... But before that can happen, I have to survive the next 4 days... and to make it worse, I'll be doing OT the next 2 days... *dread* :(

Almost as good as new :)

We just came back from a visit to Dr Heng with the kids. This time round there wasnt any problem flagging for a cab along the road as both of them were in their individual carriers. Toby weighs 7.1kg and Dr Heng said that he is recovering well and that his stitches are healing ok even though there's slight swelling around the stitch area. I'm glad that everything is looking well for my darling boy :) Well our purpose for today's visit was also becos Toby was due for his yearly vaccination and both of them are due for their deworming as well :) So that's why we brought both of them to see Dr Heng...

Tamy weighs 5.1kg and I was asking Dr Heng if she is growing too fast but Dr Heng said that Tamy looks ok... not overly fat nor too thin... hahaha... she said that at least Tamy still has a waist which I couldnt see! And commented that Toby is abit bah bah though he too has a slight waist. Hahaha.... goodness la~ I was jus telling Garry last nite that Toby seems to have put on abit of weight cos he doesnt look as slim as before. Since even Dr Heng mentioned that he is abit bah bah, I tink I will cut down his patty to 1 patty a day again and monitor his weight. Hehehe... he'll probably get to haf a feast only during the weekends when we have more time to prepare their meals :)


While checking Tamy, Dr Heng was surprised that her fur was still so soft and thick like a puppy's fur cos she said that by now it shld be slightly coarser n gradually become like Toby's. But she said it's good oso to haf such soft fur. Hehehe... :) I checked with Dr Heng about Tamy's breath as well and told her that it smells even though I brush her teeth and feed her charcoal tablet. After checkin for tartar n inspecting her mouth and even smelling it, she said that everything looks ok and commented that there isnt any smell... den she smelt Toby's mouth and said that Toby has the same breath smell as Tamy... *weird*

So I went to sniff Toby's mouth but there wasnt any smell... no bad breath at all... jus normal doggy breath but when i went to smell Tamy's, I felt like fainting!! Hahaha... If breath could kill I would have died! Hahah... Dr Heng said to continue wat i was doing with the brushing of teeth n to also use the breath spray that I recently bought to see if there's any improvement on her breath... hahah... terrible ah... smelly mouth... *peNgz

Dr Heng also commented that Tamy is tall for her age and that she will likely grow slightly taller than Toby cos at 6 months, she has reali long legs. Haha... fwee wee!~ Like Model sia... long legs... :) Cant wait to see her full grown size though I hope she doesnt get too much bigger than Toby. Hahaha... :) He's a short fart!~ =Þ Anyway we were discussing when to sterilise Tamy and Dr Heng mentioned that it doesnt matter if the sterilisation was done before or after her mensus. So long as they are above 6 months, the sterilisation can be done anytime.

She did mention that some pple do it after whereas some do it before. It's all up to individual preferance. 1 thing she did mention was that some did it before the 1st mensus becos they didnt want the nipples to get engorged and fear that the engorged nipples will remain permanent and n reduce back to its original size. Oh goodness!! I totally forgot about this aspect!!

Aiya... I cant imagine Tamy's nipples being engorged and remaining that size forever leh... eee... like small mini grapes leh... yiKes!!~ I dun like wor... now I cant decide if i want to wait until after she has her 1st mensus or do it before it comes... so scared something might happen to her as she is still so young and the worst case is that I wont even know when her 1st mensus will come! Aiya... Wei she mo zhe yang neh? =( Shang nao jing...

I recently bought 2 new toys for the both of them. kekek... found a partner for GinGin while I was at PLC and decided to jus buy a pair so that I can let them play the GinGin that I oredi have. I also bought a bottle of Heineken for Toby... Hahaha.... :) Check out the new toys and how my Short Fart and Gigantor are happily playing with each other... Hehehe .... the scene of crime I come home to everyday :)








Tink I'll go take a nap for awhile before the whole gang arrives... we're celebrating Sharon's birthday at my plc today and we'll be having steamboat later... perfect weather for steamboat too :) We'll be catching a ride from LianHoon back to Houg later tonite so tat we can drive the car back cos tmw we have to be in Houg slightly earlier as there are so many errands to run and also becos we are finally sending Nurul back and fetching the new maid over... will be meeting KoKo and family in Houg tmw... till my next update bah...

~*~ Great Weekend ~*~

The weekend was fantastic... saturaday wasnt that great cos we didnt reali go anywhere. Stayed home with the kids and bathed Tamy since Toby's stitch hasnt fully healed. After that I tried on some of Tamy's clothes on her and my goodness she has outgrown most of them. Jus look at the pics below and u will know what i mean liao... check out how tight and short the yellow adiddas top is on her. It about mid back liao. Cant reali see cos she's sitting down. Her princess dress seems slightly loose but length-wise it was ok. Her tennis dress is getting a little too short for her too *tSk* *tSk* *tSK* I tink I beta start lettin her use her clothes before she reali out-grows them ah.... My My!!! GIGANTOR is in the house!!! Hahah... :)






Went to IMM in the evening for dinner and spent a bomb at Crystal Jade... My treat to Mr Lee. After dinner we went for a walk and I ended up buyin quite a few DVDs cos there was a sale at the atrium... :) Sucker la... sale onli have to grab sme stuff... well the shows weren't the latest but at least it's the few that we quite like. I still cant find my cartoon for Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs, Cinderalla and some others though. The best news on saturaday was from Serene when she sms-ed to inform me that the dog tags that we ordered from Taiwan were here!!! YiPPY!!! I cant wait to get my hands on them. Hehehe... :) Shall collect it from Winnie on Sunday and take many pics... :) Hor Winnie hor... I arrange with you again ah. Most prob in the evening but that's if you're at home la... hehehe....

Sunday was better cos I finally bought ourselves a TV and sound system for our bedroom from Gain City!!! Hehehe... :) Nothing too OTT though... we got ourselves the LG 22" TV and a Sharp Home Theatre System which consists of 1 tuner/player, 1 sub woofer and 5 speakers... Wondering why the player is on my plastic box where all my bags are being stashed n not on the shelf next to the tv?? Well... we didnt expect it to be so long cos it looked kinda small on the display rack when we saw it... now we've gotta find a small cupboard or smething for it so that it can be put on the floor next to the woofer... *siGh*




All in all I paid slightly more than $900 for it... kekeke.... :) Check out my new mini theatre in the comfort of my own room... hehehe... this is a temporary layout... knowing wat a neat freak Mr Lee and I are, it wont remain this messy for long :)

Before goin to Gain City, we followed my in-laws to this 2 bungalows that my FIL jus completed building. Both houses were BIG!!! I love the Kitchen the most i tink... the master bedroom was nice but it was a pity the view wasnt tt good... however, the view from the attic (connected via this spiral staircase from the master bedroom) was reali fantastic!!!

I could see the Singapore Flyer and even Parkview Square!I tink we could have caught the fireworks from the balcony up there... Check out the slides below man~ Each house is going for S$6.5 Million!!! Oh goodness.... U have to be a multi-millionaire to afford such a plc man!! Just the maintenance of the plc can kill you... I'm pretty sure the bills for both the electricity and water can add up to at least 2k a month... *pEngZ*


While we were oooing and aahhing at the bungalow, the whole family together with Terry & Tommy went over to our plc for a short visit... Heheh... the 4 of furries have not seen each other for quite sometime oredi... and I was told that the 3 boys had alot to discuss whilst the Princess stuck to my dad very closely on the sofa... hahaha... also, Tommy pee-ed in the house... hmm... nottie boy ah... i reached home jus in time to play with Terry & Tommy before we got a lift from papa to Lot 1. Oh and before we left the hse, Terry gave us a farewell present! He poo-ed a huge pile right in the middle of the hall... wahsay!! the stench was super man!! hahaha....

Last nite was the 1st time we allowed Tamy to sleep on our bed for quite awhile as we were testing the tv and the system to make sure that it was all working after Mr Lee tirelessly did the wiring around the room... hehehe.... after tt, I completed the last 2 episodes of the Taiwanese serial that I was catching... and during this whole time, both of them were on our bed snoozing...
I guess the next thing for us to do is go down to SCV to get a 2nd set-top box for our room. This way I'll be able to enjoy watching cable tv from the comforts on my bed :) hiak hiak hiak...

Oh ya!! I called 1633 to cancel my subscription to the Sports Group as well as Chinese Star Movie. Decided that it was a waste of time as we rarely ever watch these channels. I also made a slight change to our subscription. We are now taking up the Movie Lover's Package which originally consisted of 3 basic groups + The HBO Pak + Cinemax. However, as I wanted 4 basic groups, the CSO was kind enaf to add on an additional basic group and I only need to pay $55 per month. Not too bad a deal ya... kekeke... :) Now I have Channel 69 and 70 liao!! :)

When we decided to turn in for the nite, we contemplated whether or not to put Tamy in her playpen and took a risk by deciding to let her sleep next to Toby in our room without it. I'm glad that she was a good girl and didnt mess up the room. hehehe.... she slpt soundly next to Toby thruout the nite until Mr Lee woke up this morning :) I hope she continues with this cos we will be collecting their new beds this sunday and I dun wanna have to bring her playpen in n out every nite. kekek... lesser mess and makes our room more spacious...

This is where both of them are slping now... so when the bed comes, it'll be placed there... :) I hope the bed is high enaf to cover the plug that's behind the cupboard... that's the reason y there is a cupboard against the wall... to prevent Tamy from chewing on it... or else there goes my aircon... kekeke... if not I'll haf to tink of another solution liao... so ugly with tt cupboard there...
