Sesame Street Live @ Marina Square

The much loved Sesame Street characters are in town again. I remembered we were at the same show at Takashimaya last year with Chloe. She was barely one year old then. She cried when the children around us were screaming with excitement. She was too young then to enjoy the show. The loud screaming by the children scared her.

This year, it's so much different. Chloe's excited about the show. She clapped & dance when the music played. She stared at the characters in awe especially her favourite 'Momo' (Elmo) appeared on stage. She is better able to relate to the show as she is familiar with all the songs sung too. To add on, Gor Gor Ian was with us. The kids enjoyed the show tremendously.

The queue started more than 1 hour early. Being the first 40 families, we were able to get close to the characters for a photoshoot after the show. However Chloe was terrified of the huge characters behind her during the shoot, as a result, the photo wasn't perfect. My hair was in a mess from all the sudden change of direction & Chloe was ...CRYING :P

We also met up with Sandy, Jo & Matthew at the show. We later posed for a picture together.

Bad Weather

Saturday was spent at home as Pete & I dun really have any idea what we were going to do. I surfed the net looking for design ideas & Pete helped clean up the pile of thick black dust trapped inside the air conditioner.

Chloe created a mess in the house as usual....


The weather was bad...havn't seen such dark clouds in a long time.

My Girl Bites!

My Friday afternoon wasn't that pleasant when I got a call from Teacher Monica again. My heart skipped a beat when I was told that Chloe bit a boy in her class! According to Teacher Monica, she had to give me a call as the bite was 'pretty bad'. Gosh! My girl again...Arrgh! I tried to not get too worked up & let Teacher Monica finishe telling me what happened.

Apparently, Chloe was playing with some toys & she wouldn't allow the boy to get it. Hence she bit the boy on the face & left the poor boy crying. The bite was bad as what the teacher told me. Pete saw that the boy has abit of a blue black mark on his face :(

Teacher Monica advised me to reinforce to Chloe that she cannot go around biting people at home. Chloe was also not allowed to go to the playground that day. Instead, she was sent to the Principal's office! Chloe looked solemn when told by the principal what she did was wrong. So teacher told me that Chloe indeed understood that she was not suppose to do what she did.

I just hope there would not be anymore incidents like this. I feel so bad for the boy & I owe the parents an apology.

Happy Birthday To Me

I went to work as usual on my birthday. It was a usual busy Friday. I have the slightest idea where we will be heading for dinner. I text Pete to fetch Chloe from school & asked him where we would be having our dinner. The answer is Jewel Box.

It was an impromptu decision to head for Mount Faber. Nevertheless, I thought why not since it's a change from the usual dining location. So we ended up on top of Mount Faber, dining alfresco @ the Moonstone afresco bar accompanied with the dazzling night scenery of the harbourfront.

The Beef Tenderloin & Teriyaki Cod fish was a hit. Chloe nodded her head repeatedly asking for more helpings. The friendly staff even offered Chloe a glass of cherries as a sweet treat. We wine & dine under the stars despite the humidity. I must say I was a happy wife & mummy on my birthday. The evening ended with a round of cable car ride to & fro Sentosa island with Chloe sitting on my lap admiring the spectacular view from high above.
