As a SAHM, i should have more time on hand and I should have taken a more consistent approach on my blog. But, I have been extremely lazy (no great pocket of time in the noon which i thought i have) and the spare time i have were spent on catching korean and HK dramas. Bad mummy! Poor Seth did not get as much updates as I liked to have. Would have to backtrack and do my postings. Surely and really, I would try my best to do as much updates as possible!

For the last December holiday, 4 families of us decided to bring the kids to a Cruise. Since we had never cruised before, all of us were excited! Unfortunately, Daddy again was reluctant to bring Seth along as he won't really play and eat much and notwithstanding that, we will have to pay the same cost for him as well. We left him to the care of Ah ma and our helper again. Sob Sob! I promise, promise the next family trip (other than M'sia) will include Seth!
Day 1
After wandering, the kids can't wait and went for a dip at the pool!
The welcome entourage were also at the poolside performing acrobatic acts and dances.
While waiting for the dinner, the big boy joined the young men for some beyblade.
We had a sumptuous dinner and followed with an entertaining juggling show at the theatre. Every one of us enjoyed the show tremendously!
Day 2
We had our full before we disembarked in Penang.
-Penang Char Kway Teow, laska, Crispy Cuttlefish, Oyster Egg and
this (which i do not know what shell creature is this). But it was GOOD!
Day 1
By the time we boarded the ship, it was around 4pm+. We did not realise that many "chiong" to queue in order to secure seats for the gala dinner and we took our own sweet time wandering around and doing things such as:
1. Playing "Chess"
2. Taking phots of our balcony room
3. Taking late tea!

Except for Sky and Sammuel, all the kids loved the slide. This was also the first time, Shannon braved through a seemingly long slide. Sky on the other hand, couldn't overcome his fear.

1st stop: Nonya Museum
After the education tour, we went on to try several local delights which includes
-Famous chendol (even our PCK ate before! )
-Penang Char Kway Teow, laska, Crispy Cuttlefish, Oyster Egg and
this (which i do not know what shell creature is this). But it was GOOD!
After makaning, we made our way back where we had dinner (Yes, Eat Again!).
Day 3
As usual, morning half were spent gorging the breakfast and lunch.
We needed to transfer to Phuket island via a small ferry. The kids at the "upper deck".
In adventurous spirit.
Sky focusing hard...
Girls' turn
Ice-cream time!
The men and boys went for an exciting All Terrain Vehicle ride.

Looking cool!
The girls and us women chatted on..
When we were back to the cruise, we washed up and got ready for Gala dinner. This time, we secured tickets to the Gala dinner. Actually, it wasn't so grand as it sounded. They were not particular on the dress code as well.It was just another meal in the restaurant. The only "spectacular" part was that the first dish presentation was similar to wedding dinner where the waiters doing the first dish entrance and a little dance.
Last day
What else but eating again! We had our full four meals (including tea) till we were back in Singapore.
Making Santa hats!
Scrolling and explore more of the Cruise. The guys were playing basketball and Sky gotten into a small incident. Sign. He had a fall from daddy's back and bumped his head. Luckily, he was alright. It was a loud thud!
Dinner and farewell time!
Till our next trip...

Started Seth on a playgroup. This is the second playgroup I enrolled him in. The frist, I felt the teacher was not up to standard and withdrew him when this playgroup near my place had vacancy.
I must say that this playgroup is a gem. The teachers are dedicated as compared with the first playgroup. While the first playgroup has 1 main teacher (whose English seems to be half past six) and an aunty to assist, this playgroup has a English teacher, Chinese teacher, an assistant teacher cum admin and an aunty assistant. I was able to sit through for the whole week to settle Seth in and at the first playground, I was whoosh out on the 2nd day.
For the first 15mins, the kids will go to the various corners i.e. artist corner, reading corner, cooking corner, etc. Seth likes the "Little Artist" corner best. The next 2 hrs includes circle time, literacy time, play time, snack time, singing and story time.

Nov is a busy month for me! Daddy kana reservist notice and needed to go Australia for his army duties for nearly 3wks. This means I would have to be the chauffeur mummy instead.
Not only I was busy, Shannon was "busy" as well. Her ballet school staged a concert and there were 3 performances. As her group is the main character, she has to perform for all 3 shows. On the day of the last show, it also coincided with her school chinese dance performance put up for P1 Orientation back to back.

Brought the kids to CHC Children Church for the Children's Day programme.Pastor mentioned that 8 kids would be chosen as the most fervent worshipper and attentive in bible story / lesson. Guess what! Shan was one of them. She got a chance to go into a container to grab as many chances to win prizes. She told me her heart was pumping very loudly when she went up stage. Too bad, not much luck and she did not manage to win any prizes. To me, the badge worth so much more!
Shan told me that she prayed to God and wanted to do her best for God to see. :)

After some deliberation, we have changed Sky's school. Here he is, in his new uniform, looking smart.
