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 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.

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.

Pets

WE have fish. Fishes.

Named Adam and Luke, after the twins.

Z chose them after breakfast one day at Tiong Baru.

They've survived a week with us.

So far so good.

Jacob Ballas Garden

DADDY and Z had a fun time at the water play area in the park this morning.

The recently opened park, part of the Singapore Botanic Gardens, is a play and discover area for children under 12.

Funny thing about the admission policy is: While children have to be accompanied by an adult, all adults have to be accompanied by a child!

We went about 9.30am and it was packed.

It was also super hot which made it even more fun for Z.

Photo fun

Edward's party part 2

FROM the camera of Edward's grandpa:

Z caught in the act!


The two youngest Koh cousins - for now - because more are on their way soon!

Edward turns two

COUSIN Edward turned two today.

There was a very colourful Bob The Builder cake,


... ball games,


... a bouncy castle,


... and very nearly some unscheduled water play.


Z loved running about on the lush carpet grass and stopped frequently to inspect it.


So fun to tear up!

Bebotoh by Affandi

SIMPLY stunning.

Sentosa Brunch

HAD a lovely champagne brunch at Sentosa with the Feders and Aunty Jo.

Love this pic which J snapped of the Dads and the kids.

When Z saw Julien on L's shoulders, she immediately demanded a ride too.

Z and Aunty J.

Bee-Ball

WE went to watch Lynn and Anna play in the finals of their league.

Z was a great loud cheerleader.

She kept yelling: Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeynnnn! Nananana!

I'm surprised she didn't lose her voice.

The team we were rooting for came in second overall.

Here she is with her nanny, "Tata".

Finger painting

NEWSPAPERS were laid out before I opened the three pots of colour.

Red and Blue and Green.

I showed Zoe what to do: Finger in pot, finger on paper, repeat.

She got the hang of it pretty quick, even changing colours as she painted.

But after a while, the finger painting became more of a body art experiment.

The process:
