Xmas @Centrepoint

CHRISTMAS this year promises lots of fun and laughter.

Zoe loves pointing out the trees, sparkly balls and shiny stars.


And not to mention, breaking the barriers to get to the toy displays!

Thanksgiving

WE celebrated at a friend's pool party.

Z got her own pool - but Dad had to fill it.


But for the little one, he couldn't fill it fast enough!


Here she is in her cute butterfly Submarine swimsuit - unfortunately she doesn't look too impressed with it.

Furniture shopping

RENOVATIONS have begun and hopefully we will be moving into our home by the end of the year.

For the last week or so, Z and I have been busy checking out stuff for the house.

Here is Z with her God-sister Becks at the Robinsons bedding sale on the weekend. Notice how the Dads are so industrious in testing out the goods.

Dinner at Grandma's

THE noodles were delicious!



Z was generous with Grandma:


Then it was time for a drink:

And when the clock struck 8pm (already a veyr late night), Z bid everyone goodnight!


Thanks to Uncle Wei for these great photos.

First pedicure

SHE calls it her "nice nice"!

But shhhh, coz Papa doesn't approve!


Here she is looking really cheeky - I kinda think she looks like me here!

Prince Bear and Pauper Bear

CELEBRITY Uncle Steve was helping launch his friend's book with his daughter Hayley.

I took Z along to hear a reading of it.

At the end there was a Q&A session and Z decided to go up to the microphone to answer the final one.

A sweet smile and a hearty cheer saw her winning a prize!


Big congratulatory hug from Hales:


Smiling for the paparazzi:

Hayley Jie Jie

HAYLEY adores Z and the feeling is mutual!

Jacob Ballas Carnival

Even at 10am, it was super hot and super crowded.

But it was for a good cause.

At least Z had fun - at the waterplay area, as usual.

Poppy's Birthday

ALOHA!

We celebrated Poppy's birthday this year at the Pavillion.

Since the setting was a lush, tropical garden, Poppy decided on an Hawaiian theme, with Elvis Presley crooning and lots of flowers.

Z in an adorable Greggy Girl outfit:




Z with Poppy:


Z gets into the spirit of the party:

Icypoles

ICE cream isn't on Zoe's menu.

Instead, home-made Ribena ice lollies!

Here she is in her new bikini chilling out by the pool:


I like!


And hanging out with Kongkie after her swim.

Baby Nay dress

ZOE loves big skirts she can twirl in.

This is a pretty one we recently acquired... online summer sales!

Comfort food

"HOLY strawberries Batman! We're in a jam!"

Robin, aka Jake, gave Zoe a Holloween virus last week.

A fever of 39 degrees hit at 7pm on Monday, about 10 hours before we headed off to the airport and a delicious beach holiday in Phuket.

Needless to say, the trip was canned.

Z's appetite since been very poor until today, when I made Uncle Kennedy some birthday cupcakes.

Double choc fudge with Cordon Bleu



There were 13:

BabyBug's Holloween

My little buggz got all dressed up in her first outfit for her playgroup party.

The outfit cost us about 10 bucks. Deal!

I bought the Ladybug hat and mask from Ikea and Z's nanny made her a set of wings.

Z thought it was a laugh to get all dressed up.

She actually kept the outfit on for about an hour.

Here is my BabyBug with a couple of her mates from the class - Tinkerbell and Robin...


...and her teachers, though I'm not quite sure who they are supposed to be.
