Fun December!

December is a fun month for Rachael because daddy and mummy are mostly home with her. And this fun month is going to end very soon. Daddy and mummy are going to start work again in a few hours time. 

Before that happened, I'm gonna continue with what happened in December so far...

14 Dec

Hubby went to work and Rachael was with me alone. I brought her down to the playground to play with bubbles. However, not long after, it started to drizzle. 

I wanted to bring her to the slide but she seemed happy playing in the train. 

15 Dec

We went to Gardens By the Bay again. Unfortunately, the Flower Dome was closed for maintenance. We could only visit the Cloud Forest.

After visiting the Flower Dome, we walked to Satay by the Bay to have our early dinner while Rachael slept in her pram. Last minute, my mum said Robinsons having members sales that day and we decided to go get something for her over there. And we got her a Hotel Collection pillow. She said for all her life, she had never used an expensive pillow and now she knows how comfortable it is to sleep on an expensive one! 

As for our dearest daughter, her daddy got her another box of duplo Lego set. And she had fun playing at the atrium.

She looks like a real professional pianist here!! 

17 Dec

We went to have lunch with hubby's friends at MK restaurant. It's really not worth going and is the worst steamboat I ever had. Nevertheless, it's never about the food but the company. 

Our first time at West Gate but we didn't have much time to walk around. We went to JEM Robinsons to get two more pillows for my brother and SIL. 

Playground again before we head home. Rachael was admiring the beautiful moon. 

After washing up, she helped to put up the ornaments to our Christmas tree. 

And she was in the mood of Christmas as well and started singing Christmas songs.

18 Dec

Her daddy went to work again and left both of us at home. We did many activities that day! 

Putting the toys through the slit in the container.

Playing with this toy... 

Reading the Lego booklet...

And sorting these small little beads into colors. 

19 Dec

Preparing to go to church. She was singing Jingle Bells again. 

I could only capture her playing this in church. Also took a video of her singing and dancing the 5 Little Monkeys song. 

She last through art & craft that day and was hungry. I took her out for some biscuits. When we came back, she actually listened attentively to the Bible story and had some biscuits. Good improvement!! 

After service, we had some desserts with Eunice and Jane. Then we went off for dinner separately. 

Rachael wasn't interested in the shot, so we took it ourselves instead! 

21 Dec

Goh Family dinner at our house. We had steamboat that day. The mala pot smell still lingers in our house till today... 

What's a family dinner without a family shot? 

22 Dec

We stayed home that day. And I cooked the leftover prawns. Nice spicy and sour paste from New Moon.

Rachael did some art & craft again. Stamping with the lady's finger that we cooked for lunch! 

Hand and finger painting. 

Can you see how happy she was? I think she really loves art. Maybe the next round will be foot prints. 

23 Dec

We had an early Christmas gathering with our closer friends. Deb was not in picture but she rushed down from work and paid $33 for cab fare!! Thank you for making the time and effort down to join us.

24 Dec

Yeoh's Family dinner at Patrick & Charlene's house. It was a sumptuous spread as usual.

We took another family picture. Top was taken in 2014 and bottom was taken that day. Can you spot the difference? I suggested taking photos in the same position every year and see how we change and grow over the years. 

25 Dec

It's Christmas Day! We went to mum's house for lunch and before that, Rachael was busy opening her presents. 

26 Dec

Another day to stay home and rest. Hubby finally found the time to pack the study room while both Rachael and I fell asleep on the sofa. 

After some rearrangement of the furniture in the study room, there's space for the drum set and Rachael had fun playing with daddy's toy!

Before she went to bed, she said she wanted to hug Santa. What a sweet girl! 

27 Dec

CG Christmas celebration! We had fun and lots of food! 

Rachael couldn't wait and opened a gift in the car!!!

After a while, she was so tired that she fell asleep in daddy's arm while we were walking back home from the carpark. 

And so we ended this post here. Time to pack my bag for tomorrow's work. Oh, it's already tomorrow.
