Morning at Youth Part

As promised on Saturday night, we brought you to Youth Park after breakfast. Luckily the weather is very cooling and nice for outdoor activity. Daddy and mummy introduce something new to you rather than letting you play with the slide, see saw, swing...all these u can get it from the playground nearby our house or in your school.As expected, you seems a bit worry when we ask you to climb up, you keep telling us you afraid will fall down. Daddy keep assuring you that he will stand behind to support you and mummy even threaten you by telling you that we are leaving if you do not try on this new game. ** mummy so bad huh** At the end, you did climb up and you call this jungle gym. BRAVO!

And mummy spotted another jungle gym and again, we ask you to try.After 2 challenging game for you, we let you run around and we walked to the public swimming pool before heading to the playground at the skating/cycling area. You were so excited seeing the pool but we told you the pool has too many people and it's not hygiene, so you are happy with our explanatio. So no more request from you for want to jump into the water. But, you do request mummy to let you play with the water from the fountain. And we let you touch the water for a while then proceed to the playground again.
You get to play with slides and we saw another jungle gym attached to the slide, so again, we asked you to climb and i guess could be this one attached to the slide, so happily, you climb on it.Oh...both daddy and son get trapped in the big cage, LOL!It's almost 12 noon and we need to drag you as you refuse to leave, We told you that we will bring you back to Youth Park again with Kaitlyn and happily, you follow us to the car. Phew!

RIP BoyBoy, you will be missed!

Yesterday ah kong told mummy that our dog,boyboy, refuse to eat his dinner on Friday night. So after i get both of you settle down, i brought boy boy to see Dr Pava. Boy boy basically doesn't have much energy, as he used to be very active, likes to run around when mummy let him out from his "house". Mummy put boyboy in a box and drive him to Dr Pava's clinic alone. Along the way, boyboy keep looking at mummy and mummy keep talking with him so that he wont feel afraid sitting in the car.

Dr Shobhna checked on boyboy and i helped Dr Shobhna to open up boyboy's mouth and guess what. boyboy's tongue is blueish in color. Meaning he is lack of oxygen. Actually we can tell that he has breathing difficulty as his breathing sound is very heavy. Then, Dr Pava perform a second check on boyboy. My heart sink when i heard that Dr Pava need to do a detailed check on boyboy. I hate this very very much. Dr Pava told me that boyboy has respiratory failure. When i heard the word failure, i really want to break down. I asked doc what should i do, but Dr Pava said no point sending him for xray or anything, it's waste of money. Dr Pava prescribe boyboy antibiotics and the same time gave him a nutrient injection. Boyboy seems a bit active after the injection and his breathing gets better. I thought everything is over......i thought he's gonna safe...i think he's gonna recover...

Until this morning, when i call ah kong to check whether has he give boyboy the medicine, he told me, boyboy has gone. I asked ah kong whether he confirmed that boyboy has gone, he said YES. DANG!! Boyboy has gone....and i wonder Mimi can feel it or not as Mimi seems to be very upset today. I need to find another dog to accompany Mimi else she will feel lonely. RIP boyboy, you will be missed.

Great time at Penang Swimming Club

We went for dinner with family friends at Penang Swimming Club. Before we headed for dinner, we let Kaitlyn to take a quick evening nap so that she wont be cranky when we had the dinner.

As soon as we reach Penang Swimming Club, Kelvin gets very excited as he gets to play badminton while waiting for our mean to be served. As for Kaitlyn, she walk around in the restaurant.
After a while, she gets bored and started to play with the spoon and fork.Both kids, in fact, should be 3 kids (2 kids from our family and 1 kid from family friend) enjoy their meal very much. The last item is dessert, and the kids enjoy the ice cream very much.And what's next after dessert?? It's badminton time again!See, my little girl also learn how to hold the racket, LOL! I have to be the bad person calling off the night and drag the 3 kids out from the badminton court by promising them will bring them back for badminton again!Luckily, no fuss from 3 of them, could be they too exhausted to say no to me.

2 pianists at home

My dad carried this big YAMAHA keyboard all the way from US for his precious grandkids.
When my 2 kids see the keyboard, they can't stop hitting playing with it. everyday they will sure need to spend some time with the keyboard, hitting, playing and fight over which button they want to hit on. I hope the keyboard can last til the time Kelvin can actually start to learn how to use it. I do plan to send him for music class and see whether he has the pianist gene in him or not. LOL!

Where is daddy?

Hubb went to China early this morning while the 2 kids still in their sweet lala-land. Thank goodness, Kelvin doesn’t wake up looking for daddy! Phew! Mom came to my house in the morning helping to get the 2 kids ready to school.

While me carrying the kids into the car, we saw Cathay flight flying over our house and I told Kelvin daddy is in the plane, and he even wave with the plane. Hmm..daddy, do you see us waving at you? LOL!

Maybe Kelvin grow up and he is a bit independent than before, somehow he understand when I told him daddy is way for business trip, he doesn’t whine when he can’t see hubb in the evening when he back from school. As for Kaitlyn, she will glue to her ah kong whenever she sees ah kong, so no worry when hubb is away.

At night when hubb call back, Kaitlyn is taking her evening nap and Kelvin is busy playing around, so he just talk with hubb over the phone for less than 30 seconds.

Going to airport

Today is a busy day for us.In the morning, we went to Youth Park for the school's Family Day and in the evening, we need to pick up ah kong and ah ma from the airport.

Ah Kong and Ah Ma went to US for holiday and after 6 weeks of vacation, they are back! We went to airport to pick them up around 7pm and as soon as the 2 kids see the grandparents, they were so excited, especially Kaitlyn. She kept calling ah kong ah kong and at the same time using her hand to hit her head. Yeah, this is what she will do when she feels excited! LOL! After that, we went for dinner and both kids perform well during dinner time. And what’s next??? Heading home!

As soon as we reached home, ah kong showed the kids the biggest and heaviest item that he brought all the way from US…..YAMAHA keyboard. Aunt Christine has an old YAMAHA keyboard that she doesn’t need anymore, so ah kong decided to carry it back all the way for both of you since Kelvin said he wants to play piano after playing the keyboard at Uncle Piao’s house.

When the 2 kids seeing the giant keyboard, they are so excited. At the same time, I can’t wait to see those online purchase items that I bought from Children Place. Kaitlyn has more items as compare to Kelvin. What to do..girls items more interesting than boy’s items.

And for me..the biggest relief is…Kaitlyn will no longer glue to me as her ah kong is her idol, she will stick to ah kong whenever she sees him. For the past 6 weeks, she has been super glue to me! Time for me to sit back and relax a bit! And time for dad to get busy with Kaitlyn after 6 weeks vacation.

D' Monte Family Day

Today is D’Monte family at Youth Park again. It's Kelvin's third time attending the family day and Kaitlyn's second time attending the family day. As usual, we wake up around 8am and laze on the bed for a while then only shower ourselves and the kids. While we are busy getting ourselves freshen up, we received a call from Uncle James asking for our help to drop by the school to pick up the balloon pump. As soon as we get everyone ready, we leave the house.

We reached Youth Park around 10am and we saw some student leaving the place.. Daddy drop us nearby the event and he went to find parking. It was so crowded. While mummy busy locating uncle James, Ms Goh appeared in front of us and thank god, I need a helper to handle 2 of you. Kelvin is a bit moody and for unknown reason, he glue to me and doesn’t want to move around. I guess could be……our fault, as me and hub keep telling him that he will get to play with jungle gym at youth park, and I noticed he keep looking high and low to look for jungle gym. Lesson learn, never tell the kid what he/she will expects up front, else u will dig your own hole, LOL!

We met some of the kids’ friends and let the kids mess up play among themselves, and my camera just decided to go on strike in the morning, so I am there in the event camera-less. DUH!! For this year, Kelvin doesn’t seems to enjoy much as compare to last year, but Kaitlyn enjoys herself very very much. She even stand there and pose to let other parents to take her pic, LOL! **I should have ask for modeling fee from whoever take her pic**

The event ended around 11am, and both kids don’t really want to leave the place, they still continue to run around at the big field nearby the event place. So what’s next? Time for brunch, we went to Yong Ping at town for dim sum then headed back for the kids’ nap.

Dinner by the beach

Today we had family dinner at Hou You seafood restaurant at Teluk Kumbar. We were late and when we reached the restaurant, everyone half way eating their dinner.

We ordered few types of seafood and i brought porridge for both kids as afraid they may not have anything to eat. But my thoughtful cousins actually ordered steam fish for the kids, and the kids had some then headed to the beach. For me, i sit there and enjoy my meals while the rest of the family members busy taking pics by the beach.

By the time i finish my meal and headed to the beach to join the rest, it's sunset time. The sunset scenary very nice and we managed to take some pics.
