Took some random and silly shots with Denise...

Debbie's 2nd Birthday

I LOVE this picture!!!

Debbie turned 2 on July 10th. Like Denise, we celebrated her birthday in the Nursery with her "little friends". I ordered a "Winnie the Pooh" agar-agar for her. Prepared goody bags for her friends... That was a tough job because most of her "little friends" in Nursery are below 1.

Our helper woke up "super" early to cook for the party. We had bee-hoon, chicken curry, sausages, nuggets, chicken fillets etc... Wanted to order food but she offered to cook for the party...:) Yummy....

Many of her friends were there! Denise even dressed up like a fairy...:)

All eyes were on the agar-agar "flowers" and "leaves"... The mummies had to keep removing those little hands while I lighted the candles.

Debbie knew that it was her birthday. She was so eager to blow the candles and cut the cake on her own. Denise had an Elmo cake for her 2nd birthday. Can you spot her? The little gal in the pink jacket.

Debbie is so blessed! She received so many presents; clothes, toys, $$$ and many warm wishes! Thanks for making it special for her!

Brushing Teeth

Debbie has started to learn to brush her own teeth. Like what we did with Denise, we bought First Teeth Baby Toothpaste and a toothbrush for her. Every morning, we will involve her when Denise and I brush our teeth. She started with sucking the toothpaste and after 2 weeks, she has started to brush the front of her teeth...:)

Denise has no problem brushing her teeth in the morning. But sometimes when she is too tired, she will not brush before she goes to bed... One night, she tried to bargain with me...

"Denise, it's time to brush your teeth."

"Mum, I will brush twice tomorrow morning."

*faint* "Ok, then you don't need to eat breakfast and lunch tomorrow, I will feed you 3 times during dinner."

Dad's 1st Death Anniversary

Last year this time, the family was having a hard time shuttling between hospital and home/work. Time flies... It's been a year since my Dad passed away.

I remember that when we admitted Dad to the hospital, he was very weak; couldn't stand and walk on his own. Pastor Tan visited and prayed for him. He received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit! After Pastor left, he insisted on standing up! JX managed to capture a shot of him standing and praying in tongues. This is probably the last shot we have of him, standing upright.

Whenever I miss Dad or feel discouraged, I look at this picture. To me, this is a picture of FAITH!

I've hugged him, kissed him, told him I love him, heard him told me "he is very proud of me", spent great quality time with him, went holidays with him and have told him how proud we are to have a Dad like him... Basically like what people always say... Give flowers when they can still smell it! Our relationship was not always like that. It took us many, many years to work on making it better!

This Father's Day, I thought I would cry buckets but I surprised myself. I did not... Yes, I miss my Dad a GREAT BIG DEAL but there is no sense of regrets towards him...:) I have told him all that I needed and wanted to tell him. And death is easier to accept when you know that he has gone to a better place!

E1R1 - Each 1 Reach 1; who can you reach out to today? Live a life of no regrets! Someone needs to hear you say "I love you", "I appreciate you"... It's never too late!

Surprise From JX!

Cannot resist blogging about this... JX bought me a LV bag today! It comes with a LV padlock.

This is supposed to be my Wedding Anniversary and Birthday present.

But most of all, tomorrow is my Dad's 1st year Death Anniversary and JX told me he wants to cheer me up...:) My Dad bought me my first Coach handbag and now my husband bought me my first LV bag... I love the "men" in my life :)

Orchard Central

Orchard Central; also known as the tallest vertical mall in Singapore. It is 12 storey above ground with 2 basement levels. Went there with Denise last Tuesday when JX went for his meeting.

The escalator outside the mall travels from level 1 to 3! It was long.... But nothing much yet. Probably only 30% ready.

Mount Faber

We drove up to Mount Faber recently. These photos were taken by Denise...:)

It was a HOT afternoon! But the view was superb!

We took the cable car from Mount Faber to Sentosa. The last time we took one was last November when we went to Hong Kong Ocean Park.

The view was awesome, especially the Sentosa IR! The project is massive!

Dinner @ Waraku

Read from Edmund's blog that Waraku @ Cuppage is having a 50% promotion from 18-21 Jun...:) It is our favourite Japanese restaurant, so we decided to go there for dinner tonight!

The place was crowded but we managed to get a table within 10mins! The staff were very friendly; Denise and Debbie were given a toy each...:) To take advantage of the offer, we ordered all our favourite dishes!

Yummy!!! For the amount of food we ate, we only paid $54! Then I realised that we ordered 2 plates of "bacon quail egg" but only 1 of it was given a 50% discount. I highlighted to the waitress. Not only did she minus off the 50%, she even gave me a full refund of the dish as an act of goodwill. In other words, I actually had 2 plates of "bacon quail egg" for free! Final bill - $46!!!

Haha...definitely my favourite Japanese restaurant...:)

Took this candid shot at Taipei 101 recently. It came with a certificate indicating the date we went up the building...:)

Guitar Hero

Photo evidence that we are a ROCKING FAMILY.... haha....

Celebrity Weekend

Last weekend was Celebrity galore at City Harvest...:) It was amazing seeing many of them performing and sharing their testimonies to glorify God!

This is the 2nd time I met Vanness Wu. Cool! I heard 1 Japanese fan heard that he was performing in CHC; flew to Singapore just to see him...

F.I.R. - Fantastic and powerful vocal! Definitely the best act...:)
