Sentosa Flowers 2012

There’s no school on te 3rd day of CNY and mummy decided to bring us to the annual Sentosa Flowers.

Taking a picture with the dragon mascot as it’s the Year of the Dragon!

Mummy and Je t’aime with the flower mascot.

The water-dragon.

Flower Fairies.

Je t’aime posing with the pretty roses.

Heart shaped formation of the flowers.

Je t’aime especially loves flowers and she was constantly touching this flower and that flower. She made the staff at Sentosa Flowers very worried as they thought Je t’aime was plucking but Je t’aime said no, she was only touching and smelling.

At the tea table.

Dino-land. Spot the 3 dinosaurs.

Iguanodon

Sand sculpture of a dragon. Amazing!

We love you, mummy! And thanks for bringing us all the way to Sentosa Flowers all by yourself. Even the taxi uncle said “Wow”!

 

It’s a happy day!!

Freestyle Dance At Universal Studios Singapore with the Rockafellas

I love to dance! And I gamely volunteered myself when the Rockafellas at USS asked for volunteers to preform freestyle dance. Watch the link above for my performance. I told mummy that I want to volunteer again the next time, but I want to improve my dance first. =)

Je t’aime was inspired by all the dance performances especially one by the Rockfellas with the song  ‘Nobody, Nobody But You”. Watch the above link for Je t’aime’s home performance! And she did it numerous times, maybe more than 10.

Je t’aime’s Writing and Song

http://youtu.be/Zx5A3PIyNxA

28 month old Je t’aime’s 1st attempt in writing prior to her drawing shapes like circles and ovals etc.

This sister of mine is such a fast learner, when it comes to songs. Mummy just casually sang ‘It Only Takes A Spark aka Pass It On”. And Je t’aime picks it up upon the 1st few hearings and sings it. When she knew that we are going to videoed her, she even strike a pose throughout her song. Lol. So cute!

Narnia, The Exhibition

First outing in 2012. We went to Narnia, The Exhibitiom at MBS. Mummy is a great fan of Narnia and has nfluenced daddy and me to the stories of Narnia.

Me, opening THE wardrobe.

Je t’aime in the THE wardrobe, playing with the fur coats.

What do you see after stepping in … and further in … inside the wardrobe? THE lamp post. =)

The faun, Mr Tumnus’ cottage.

An armour

Me holding the sword of King Peter. The inscription on its blade reads “When Aslan shakes his mane, Narnia shall know Spring again.” Cool!!

The icy throne of the White Witch. This throne is indeed cold when you sit on it.

The frozen waterfall mentioned in Narnia. And hey, those are really ice that we are touching. Amazing how it stays frozen in the exhibition.

Even though this is a small exhibition, but it is worth the $5 that you need to pay to enter. All of us, including Je t’aime, enjoyed it very much. Besides the above mentioned, we got to design our own coat of arms, build an arc (like those seen on castles etc), explored the map of Narnia on a touch screen and lots more.

Afamosa Trip

We are going to Afamosa Resort, Malaysia again. It’s Je t’aime’s first visit and my second though I don’t have any recollections of my first as i was 1.5 years old then.

Brave me, handling a real snake.

Je t’aime is one who likes to do what I do. She gamely said she wanted to hold the snake too, “like gor-gor”.

Went Afamosa with my paternal grandparents and maternal grandma. We spent our 1st day doing some shopping and headed to the Cowboy Town for 4D theatre show (not as good as those found in Singapore), a sumptious Chinese dinner (provided in our package) and of course the Animal Carnival Parade. We saw fireworks at close range too and that was one of the highlights of the day. Love it!

Playing on the train in Cowboy Town.

Je t’aime and mummy sitting on the kiddy ride.

We played this game…

and this game… and won alot of coupons which in turn can be redeemed for a soft toy. An XL soft toy! Yeah!

Where are we heading to, the next morning?

Ahhh… it’s the Jurassic Experience! This is a temporary exhibition and boy, aren’t we glad we were there.

The exhibition is in the wild, unlike the Singapore Science Centre ‘Dinosaurs Alive’ (which is an indoor exhibit). The experience at Afamosa is more authentic. Let the pictures below do the talking.

What’s next, after the Jurassic Experience?

We went to the ‘farm’ in Animal World and fed huindreds of small chicks. What an experience!!

We even went inside the rabbit enclosure to feed the rabbits.

Didn’t stay long inside the ‘farm’ as we had a bird show to catch.

Took the above picture with the flamingoes after the bird show.

The 2 grandmas with the beautiful peacock. It’s amazing the zoo-keeper can get the peacock to open up all the while, while people snapped away.

We headed to the walk-through area to feed more animals. We fed the racoons, emus and ponies. I even sat on a camel with grandma Annie.

Off to the Water World after the Animal World. Alas, time was rather tight for us so we didn’t get to explore the Water World much or make full use of its facilities. We only played at the Kids Adventure Pool.

On our last day, we tried archery. Je t’aime like it more than me. Haha!

I chose to ride on a horse rather than a pony as I’ve not rode on a horse before. I’m a big boy now! And I am not scared. I even wanted to ride on it a second time.

Je t’aime riding on a pony named Bubble.

Grandpa had a go at adult go-kart while I tried my hands at the mini-go-kart. It is meant for children 6-12 years old but I was allowed to ride beacuse I am tall enough (feet can touch the pedals).

My first experience with go-karting and it is great fun!! Rm 50 for 10 rounds of go-karting. Worth it.

A group photo. We had fun at Afamosa!! Will recommend this resort to families with kids. =)

 

 

Play At Stadium

14 Dec 2011

We went to the stadium with Alexis and Ambrose to play running, relay races and ball. It was our first stadium play-outing and we had alot of fun! Kudos to mummy for suggesting the play-date. =)

Jurong Bird Park Again

We are at Jurong Bird Park again. It is the most visited attractions for us this year. Usually it’s the Singapore Zoo but Je t’aime seems to fancy the Bird Park, so here we are.

But today is abit different. Our main objection is to visit the newly opened Birds of Play, a water-play area for kids. It’s beautiful and fun, like the one at the Zoo.

I enjoy sliding down this water slide. First time I slide down so many times as I tend to be abit apprehensive when I was at the Zoo.

Playing near the water-play area. There’s also a playground with swings, see-saws etc just beside it. It’s fun!!

There’s a free craft area for us to make animals out of eggs. This craft activity is only for a certain period. Look at our creation above, a bird inbetween 2 sheep. I made the one on the right mostly by myself. Yeah! Mummy and Daddy helped Je t’aime make the other 2.

Besides playing at the Bird Park, we went to see the birds too. One of them, the sun conures, at the Jungle Jewels. We especially love the Hornbills section. Go take a look at the beautiful and many different hornbills if you visit Jurong Bird Park.

Je t’aime’s Learning

Je t’aime turns 27 months old today. Have I mentioned that she loves to pose. Haha!!

Mummy has been flashing these owls cards to her and she knows and recognises all 10 of them. I do too. We are now learning more about the other birds of prey like bald eagle, kites, vultures etc.

Je t’aime can differentiate the Treble clef and the Bass clef. Clever girl! And she knows which hand is for playing which clef.

She also knows the music notes C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C. Now she’s into 2 and 3 black keys. =)

Choosing Her Own Clothes

It has been a week. Every morning when Je t’aime wakes, one of the first things she will do after drinking milk is to head to her wardrobe.

She will open the doors and drawers of the wardrobe and choose the clothes that she wants to get changed into.

Say her mouth the word “Jeans”.
