Fright Night !!!

Chloe had fun with Pete @ the Asian Civilisation Museum tonight. This was Chloe's 1st Halloween experience. She was all dolled up to look a part of the event. My little 'devil' look devilishly cute in her red devil horns & pitch fork. Unfortunately mummy was quite tired to tag along & decided to stay home to rest instead. From the pics daddy took, Chloe really enjoyed herself especially since eating mashmallow & icecream was her favourite!

Dinner @ T3

It's been some time since I caught up with Tricia, Chloe's godma & my long time friend I'd known from the then IRC (internet relay chat). We decided to dine at T3 on Friday night after work to catch up.

Sam & Tricia came over to pick us together with their darling baby Udelle. Chloe was thrilled to meet Baby Udelle cos I've told her the day before that we would be dining with god ma & god pa.

We had an enjoyable & hearty pasta dinner at a very ideal location. Chloe had fun playing with Godpa & even held hands with him while walking. The conversation was centred around our little ones (of cos) & our upcoming trip to Phuket. Tricia had also passed me some maps & info on Phuket island.

What I realised now as I am typing this post is that we've missed taking shots together! So no pics to post in this update :(

We must get together again & remember to take a family shot of our 2 families together :)

Mad About Cows

Chloe loves the moo media cow decals she sees at MRT stations & cabs. She would shout out mummy see COW! whenever she sees them. When she saw these biggies while we were downtown shopping last weekend, she insisted to pose with every single cows on display.

Beautiful Sunday Morning

Chloe & I woke up early today. Pete was already off for his company's treasure hunt. I decided to bring Chloe to the nearby coffeeshop for breakfast by myself. On most Sundays, we would travel to somewhere to have prata for brunch or I would fry an omelette with ham & corn for Chloe when she wakes while Pete can sleep longer in bed.

This morning was pretty pleasant for me. Chloe was exceptionally well behaved. She would wait for me on her seat while I kept an eye on her while queueing for breakfast from afar. Chloe managed to finish a plain prata on her own, loaded with sprinkles of sugar of cos. After breakfast, I pushed Chloe in her stroller 2 bus stops away to get some fruits & eggs. The weather was good, in fact a beautiful sunday morning. I decided to stop by at a nearby playground as a surprise trip for her because of her good behaviour.

She was as happy like a bird. I gave her a choice between two locations & instructed her that we could only stay for 10 mins. Alas, our time spent at the playground was a merely 8 minutes or so when we heard the distant sound of thunder. We decided to head home.

You Are So Sweet

Pete is on night shift this week. After dinner, Chloe & I sat down on the sofa & watched a programme on Channel U together. The show featured lots of crabs. Chloe was able to recognise them & said out loud CRAB! mummy crab! There sitting with my fat bum resting on my comfortable seat, I watched with interest the different kinds of delicacies you can make out of a hairy creature.

Then Chloe blurted out:
Mummy u want eat crab?
She gave me a sincere look on her face as if really intent on waiting for my answer.
I replied: Yes.
Tomorrow Chloe buy for mama ok? I gave her a look in surprise.
Only for mummy? what about papa I asked.
Chloe replied: Tomorrow Chloe buy for mama & papa ok?
I was amused & continued teasing her exclaiming how sweet & thoughtful she is.
Then i asked her: So do you have money?
She looked at me smiling & replied NO! Chloe no money & went on playing on her own.

I just thought inside me, this is enough to make me melt & smile to think how fortunate I am to have her.

Outing to ION

I just wanted to try the much hyped Takoyaki from the foodcourt at ION Orchard. So we brought Chloe together with us after school to check it out.

Verdict? not bad & the queue was moving quite fast though Pete thought it would taste better if there are more varieties for the filling. He doesnt eat Octopus :P

My Doll House

Tired..

I havn't been updating this site recently. I have to admit I am kinda lazy to go online now. The chair is not comfy. I just could not sit for too long especially when my eyes is on my office computer throughout the day. The last thing I want to do is log on & surf. My eyes need a break. Maybe getting a new chair might help.. or a router so i can rest comfortably & surf on my bed. Let's see.

Here are some pictures of Chloe taken during the past week or so.
