Water Play still okie lah.. just have to bring luggage.. hahaha

I'm staying near Balestier Area. Nearest Mrt is Boon Keng MRT. But Sembawang Shopping centre far, have to take shuttle bus from Yishun MRT... I try k...
 


kam,
oh..i've never tried the waterpark before although i stay quite near, don't mind trying now that kimberly is older =) after that can makan or snack at astons!
 
lol..smelly feet. didn't know babies also will get smelly feet! can spray those lemongrass footspray on their feet or not?
 
steph,
actually i really peifu u! u can bring 4 kids out alone! i bring 1 out alone, sometimes i already feel tired...so much barang to bring!
 
kiki,
Exactly! Astons just right beside the playground! Good thing with this kind of waterplay, as compared to swimming, is mummy won't get wet :)


steph,
Oh, you are quite far away hor.....

We haven't fixed the venue yet. Can be anywhere. I am just suggesting.....
 
Kam
Ian and I wanna go too! Sambawang a bit far for me too.. LOL but Aston sounds GOOD :p I'll go with the crowd.
Or how about airport? LOL also a bit far but lots of space for babies to run around. Or marina barrage? Can play with water too.

Potbelly
my younger bro used to have belly bigger then Kam's boy! really big like those African boys. Doc Said too much air too. My mum also never do anything and 30 years later, he got 6 pecs lah! Haha

itsy

Yeah my cloth bk! I have no transport now that Hubs is overseas. <font size="-2">I can't drive *blush*</font> I'll be home from next Thu onwards tho, so maybe I can meet u at Compass Pt or wherever if u're there?
 
Sembawang

Ooh.. so faaarr away....

steph

I haven't brought Sam to indoor PG yet he had smelly feet. I think it's the sweat.
 
I hope Sam is ok...

SIL's kids were supposed to go to the park tdy but they called last nite to say that her #1 is sick. Then this am, the kdis called &amp; my FIL dashed up there to have breakfast &amp; fetch them to MIL's although he'd just made a trip up there to fetch us down. Wonder why BIL doesn't drive them down since he's not working.

And SIL's really inconsiderate! Her kid is sick yet she aws brings them down to play with Samuel. They're perpetually coughing and she still claims that they're very strong when I try to warn her whenever Sam's sick. That they never get HFMD even though the school had it. Duh.. HFMD is spread by CONTACT with body fluids what. And she says there's no need to wash hands after her kids pee coz they only pull up their pants. gross! And MIL's aws feeding the kids &amp; Sam from the same spoon!

ugh. Just feel so disgruntled with the ILs in general.. *thinking hard abt CC*
 
my boy finally started to cruise yesterday!! finally!! i waited so long.. but worth the wait cos he was doing very well cruising around with the toy walker...

hope he can catch up running with his peers here!!
 
jul::
oh dear.. ur SIL so inconsiderate... i will stay away frm them if possible... even ur MIL helping looking after shld practice cleanliness...


one time, Z was crawling in their hse at the living room, and he stop and stoop to have his face close to the floor and kiss the floor... i was nearby only but i was observing him ard so i saw and i stopped him immediately.. MIL who was just beside him still ask me what is he doing?! and laughed.. faintz..


Playdates::
all locations are so far away... =(
 
<font color="ff0000">Bookdepository 10% voucher</font>

Anybody wants a 10% voucher for Bookdepository? I will have to enter your e-mail in their system and then you will receive the e-voucher. Voucher valid till 15th Dec. They assure that they won't keep your e-mail, once they have sent the e-voucher to you, they will delete away your e-mail. PM me your e-mail if you want one.
 
<font color="119911">JUL</font>
U sms me your address, I see if I can drop it at your place. U home on weekends? Else, I'll be at Compasspt on Sun at about 12noon.

Why use same spoon? So your MIL feed Sam and other kids from same bowl of food and same spoon? ANd after pee pee must wash hands even if they only pull up their pants. This is to teach them good hygiene habits.


<font color="119911">Kam</font>

Rach,
So luchy to have a good maid. Maid levy is $176 or $170? I'm paying $170. Yours no experience still $380? I might take philipino if my current one really don't want to continue, provided my MIL ok with that.Philipino are better in English.


Flower4,
Basically you also need to pay for her neccessity ba which include shampoo, soap, etc. Medical also need to pay.
 
Connie> price has increase already.. Under the new phili law, by right they have to be paid US$400 a month...

Alamak, like that I jia-lat, cos home is English speaking environment.
A few months ago, we decided to make an effort to speak more Mandarin. End up my mom speak Mandarin like speak dialect, my hb speak Mandarin (whatever little words he can manage) like ang-moh speak Mandarin (and worse than some Westerners some more). After a while, we think aiyoh, better not continue if not, my boy sure speak all salah, all cao-yum (lost tone). Oh no...! What's the second best method?
 
Jolimilk,
Me n HB speak chinese to my son, Maid speak English n Malay to him n MIL speak Teochew to him. His CC teacher also tell me his chinese not good so ask me to speak chinese to him. Hmmmm, already speaking chinese at home. Might send them for chinese enrichment in future.

You might want to consider enrichment program. Not sure will this help :

Rach,
I might be wrong on the levy but I thought 170 is because we have tobble. Normal levy is 200++.

flipp maid now so x? I'm paying approx 390/mth including the bonus to my maid. Then when we go holiday, she also tag along.

Mummies and toddler who are interested to attend <font color="ff0000">(please state your preference for morning/afternoon and choice of venue of 1, 2, 3 or 4)</font>, we go with the majority:
1. Kam and Xi Yu - morning, 1 or 3.

4. Jul and Samuel
5. Kiki and Kimberly
6. Itsy and Ian

<font color="ff0000">"Rules" for the meetup</font> - every toddler and adult MUST be free of any symptoms of not being well (fever, coughing, runnning nose) for at least 24 hours, to avoid the bugs passing around.
 
Gathering:

Gotta give it a miss... Haohao is down with soar throat and cold.... just come back from PD

milkyway:
so that was u! didn't come over as have to busy finding table and highchairs at the crowded Ikea keke
 
Kam,

I like this phrase :
"Rules" for the meetup - every toddler and adult MUST be free of any symptoms of not being well (fever, coughing, runnning nose) for at least 24 hours, to avoid the bugs passing around."

Why set at 24hrs?
I don't think I can make it, need to work.
Can't imagine seeing mummy with luaggage for the outing.
 
Connie,
:) I read it somewhere (a trusty source) so just typed it out. Cannot remember where, but I am 100% sure it says 24 hours after recovery. Maybe 24 hours is enough for the bugs to totally cleared from the body after a recovery?
 

Hohoho... Waiwai... We are just fated not to join in gatherings.....
