25 Nov 2011 - Little Pro Bowler

Every night when we reach home, Javier will come and ask me to let him play Wii bowling. As he has been practising almost every night, he's now slowly turning into a "pro". His bowling style is so funny, especially when he's about to release the bowling ball, his left leg will be raised high up......a bit like 狗尿尿.....lol.......

Though his action is funny, his bowling skill has improved quite tremendously. Below video shows how he improves slowly.....from throwing away my Wii remote to getting spares and finally STRIKES!

21 Nov 2011 - Jerlene, the hairdresser

Today, Jerlene's castle had turned into a hair salon. And guess what, Javier is her first customer......the one and only customer....... Let's hope that Jerlene did a good job and next time when we bring Javier for a real haircut, he will not scream and shout. :-)

19 Nov 2011 - Building up Xmas mood at home

As Christmas is approaching, I decided to setup a Xmas tree. Jerlene and Javier were very excited the moment they saw me taking it out from the storeroom. They were very eager to help me out........

After the tree was setup, next was to put up some lights and finally all my angel bears.........

We all had a sense of achievement after the tree was fully setup. I think we still need some presents at the bottom of the tree. Anybody want to donate some?

16 Nov 2011 - Completion of English Speech and Drama 2011

Today is the completion of Jerlene's Speech and Drama enrichment class for 2011. Parents were invited to the childcare centre where the kids had a short performance. This year, the theme surrounds the story of Babar elephant. As you can see below, all the children were wearing an elephant mask which they made it during their previous classes.

After the performance, every child was presented with a certificate of completion.

15 Nov 2011 - Nursery 2 Class Graduation Photo

Jerlene brought back her graduation photo of her Nursery 2 class. Though she's one of the oldest in her class, she's also the shortest...... Below are the slightly enlarged version.

13 Nov 2011 - Confident jumping on a trampoline

Javier has always wanted to try out new things. Unlike him, Jerlene would not dare to try things that she's not familiar with. In fact, a lot of time, she actually encourages Javier to go try things that she herself would not dare to do. Javier, on the other hand, really 天不怕地不怕. Today while we were shopping at Suntec City, we came across a mini trampoline. I first asked Jerlene to try and as expected, she wouldn't dare. When I asked Javier to go, he straight away went on it and started jumping confidently.

I think I need to put in more effort to "counsel" Jerlene not to be afraid of failure. Not everything needs to be first. She needs to know that as long as she tried her best, that's sufficient. I will never give her that type of pressure.......

12 Nov 2011 - Am I pretty?

Am I pretty? Mama tied for me.......

6 Nov 2011 - Kid's Talk

Daddy: "Jerlene, your skirt is too short."

Jerlene: "Yes....."

Daddy: "It's like a mini skirt now."

Jerlene: "No, it's not......"

Daddy: "Yes, it is a mini skirt....you see the skirt is so short."

Jerlene: "But there is no Minnie on my skirt!"

Daddy:"............."

5 Nov 2011 - Another Karaoke session

Another enjoyable singing session in the KTV room. Now both Jerlene and Javier were willing to sing together....... Watch the video below. Tell me what do you think Javier was doing while Jerlene was singing..... :P

NO....it's not what you are thinking.....he's simply imitating what's on the TV screen...... ;)

1 Nov 2011 - Princess long dress....but I thought.....

As I've mentioned many times, Jerlene has always wanted to be a princess. She has built her princess castle and tonight, she decided to make herself a beautiful veil and a nice long dress......

To me, my first impression when I saw her is that........"Why you make yourself like a terrorist??!!" :-P
