 celebrating X'mas at QBM

For the whole school long holiday, Emeryn attended only half day at her daycare. The other half day, she would spend her time at home mostly playing her iPad. On Wed, Emeryn joined the tang yuen making class at her daycare and brought back some of her end result to share with mummy. On Thurs, aunty Cheng, mummy's colleague gave her a green papaya and that triggered mummy to cook instantly for our dinner that evening itself.

Emeryn attended X'mas party at her daycare on Fri and brought home a gift which she loves it so much. She was happily smiling from ear to ear while unwrapping her gift. It was one of gift in her wish list, bow & arrow. 

X'mas eve falls on Sat and we went to Bukit Jambul before 11am. We ended up buying a school bag from Body Gloves and bought Mc Donalds for Emeryn's lunch. Due to the time restriction, Emeryn had her McD porridge in the car before mummy sent her to Cambridge class. It was a replacement class as there is no class held on X'mas day. After the class, we drove to Teluk Bahang as mummy wanted to survey some places for our photography shooting. We reached Taman Rimba slightly after 5pm and Emeryn requested mummy to buy some snacks as she was hungry. We left Taman Rimba after 15-20mins and headed to Straits Green. We spend at least 30mins there before driving to town.

Mummy is meeting her friends for a X'mas catch-up. Before the gathering, we walked to the hawker stalls and Emeryn had some lok lok. The meet up was at Kim Haus ad we left before 11pm.

On Sun, we celebrated Christmas at Queensbay Mall. We asked Ah Kong, Por Por, Theng Ee & family to join us. We started our day early to avoid the massive festive jam. First we shopped for our photoshoot clothing before adjourning to Haagen Daaz for a quick stop before the Christmas performance started. One of the outlet also gives out free cotton candy to the kids in conjuction of X'mas. Por Por and Ah Kong joined us watching the performance while Theng Ee Ee were late. She only arrived at the very last minutes for the snow falls. After the performance, we had our late lunch at Kim Gary before mummy continued a quick shopping. After getting what she needed, mummy drove Por Por and Baby Will back home. As usual Emeryn spent her weekend time with Baby Will before we went home.

Mummy Venturing into Baking

 pineapple tarts

 blueberry cookies

Mummy's aunt gave her a pre-mixed ingredients for pineapple tarts during Baby Will's birthday. The next 2 days later, mummy started to baked. The first batch filling was too hard and mummy tried again after getting more advice from her aunt. The second batch has some improvement. The leftover dough, mummy used it for blueberry cookies. The end result wasn't too good and mummy definitely needs more improvement.

@ the party

Mummy collected our online orders from Ezbuy and one of it has a very nice design. Emeryn looks so sweet wearing it but unfortunately the size doesn't match her growing pattern now. She would probably outgrow the dress in less than 3months time. Thus, mummy decided to sell the dress to Joey. It was school holiday and Emeryn was a bit reluctant to attend daycare. On Fri when Theng Ee Ee was off, mummy sent her to Theng Ee Ee. She went for breakfast with Ee Ee before sending baby Will to his nanny. They both then went to the hair salon where Emeryn got her hair permed into big curls. For the whole day, Emeryn tagged along with Ee Ee until mummy off from work. Mummy picked Emeryn from Ee Ee's home at about 6pm and had a quick dinner there before mummy dropped her to tutorial class.

On Sat, it was mummy's X'mas gathering with her gang. They met at Arang Coffee for lunch and had the gifts exchanged, a tradition which they have practiced for many years ago. Emeryn also collected gifts from mummy's friends and in return she gave them each a Pocky. After the gathering, we drove over to Por Por's house. We picked Por Por and baby Will up before we went to Gurney Paragon to meet Elmo & Friends. So co-incidentally Gurney Paragon's X'mas theme is the same theme as Baby Will's First Birthday theme. Upon reaching, we took many photos and got in just in time for the Meet & Greet session. We managed to snap some photos with Elmo & Cookie Monster on the stage. We stayed for awhile before driving back to Por Por's house for baby Will to get his nap. Later, we drove to Theng Ee Ee's house and had dinner nearby. Toki Ee Ee & Uncle Lin Chun joined us for dinner as well. After the dinner, all of us went to Theng Ee Ee's house and got ourselves busy with the birthday preparation. We stayed till almost 11pm before returning home.

On Sun, Emeryn attended her Cambridge class as usual before we brought lunch home. After having lunch and getting ourselves readied, we went to Theng Ee Ee's house to help with the birthday decoration at about 4pm. The party started right after 7pm and ended by 10pm. After clearing the hall, we left around 11pm. We brought home some leftover cakes.
