Playful Shannon spoiled ah yi's alarm clock for the 2nd time. And, this is not the 1st time the baobeis damage her stuffs. To name a few, there are alarm clock, dream catcher from Australia, disney calendar and many more that i can't recall. :p Ah yi demanded me to give her $10 for the spoiled clock.

I decided to teach Shannon the value of $$ and reinforce to her that she cant' get away scott free for spoiling things. So, I found a piggy bank & told Shannon to earn $10 fm me to give ah yi. This is how she earn her $10 today:

$1 - Do drawing/colourings by herself and not disturb daddy who is busy at the PC.
$1 - Drink water
$5 - Eat dinner by herself
$2 - Eat ice-cream only in the kitchen
$1 - Not disturbing Sky when he's asleep

I was patting her to sleep & telling her she can give $10 to ah yi the next day when she say, "mummy, we have to buy sweets for ah yi also" I asked her why and she replied "so that ah yi will not be angry!" .

Hmmm, this gal sure know how to go the extra mile!

Shannon is 3 today!! Happy Birthday my big baobei! This yr, she requested for a strawberry shortcake cake.

1st Celebration @ School
Her godma & I took leave to celebrate with her in school on Friday.

Shannon & her classmates

After that, we went to Bt Panjang Plaza to have a drink while she played bubbles. Later, we brought her to Bt Panjang Plaza library to borrow books. I must say that the books selection at BPP library is so much more interesting & extensive than CCK.

2nd Celebration @ home
At night, She had another cake cutting session with the family except her daddy.


3rd Celebration @ Globetrotters
For the benefit for daddy who jus came home y'day & thus has not sing b'day song, we bought a small cake fm polar cake to Globetrotters. Shannon had fun playing in the little trotters fun room while Sky was busy "mum mum". He has been eating alot recently!

Final Cake cutting!

Shannon & her signature pose!

Our gift to her - a kitchen set.

The 2 baobeis's daddy is in Vietnam for a wk & will be back just in time this Sun for Shannon's BD. Whole of last wk, he has been putting Shannon to sleep. He must be thinking of to make up for the 1 wk loss of seeing his baobeis. Naturally, yesterday, Shannon was asking for daddy to accompany her to sleep.

Dh emailed to inform that I would enjoy shopping there as there's lots of nice bags & shoes with embroidery. Green with envy!! Shall wait for surprises then! haha

These days, shannon seems to have imaginary friends. She will be on the phone & as if talking to someone. When i asked her who is she talking to, she will reply "my friend la" & quote a name. Conversation overheard, "wait for me at NTUC. Lot 1 there, hmm, ok, bye"

?!?!?!? LOL

With the coming of the National Day, Shannon's CC has been teaching her the National Anthem. So recently, she has been singing the anthem at home. It does bring me back to my old school days memories when I hear her singing.

Today, she amaze me by reciting the pledge to me. To think that she can really recite the full pledge & not missing out any verse. I was totally "wow" by her! I think i only learnt the pledge in primary school?!?
