We Love Christmas

Yes.. we Love Xmas. The Goh family got a christmas tree. Samuel looks like a cute elf and a cute raindeer. Both our boys had so many presents waiting for them. They were super super happy. Kenneth wakes up everyday wondering if today is Christmas. ha ha.. He cannot wait to open his presents and his brother's presents.

Our First Xmas

Our first xmas as a family. Papa and Mama finally settled down in Singapore and this is our first visit to City Hall to admire the Xmas decoration.

Samuel's Baptism

Finally... Samuel's big day has arrived! Our little one received CHRIST today! Godma Sabrina and Godpa Alan will be their guiding light for the rest of their lives! ha ha... Godma and Godpa promised Fr Fredrick that it is a long life commitment!

Our Bath tub

My boys love bathing in their bath tubs. Check out the happy faces in both of them. They just love it!

Kenneth's movie night

Today, I decided to bring Kenneth to the movies! Hmmmm can he sit through the movie on his own?? I wonder? A quick chat with Faith Faith's mum and she said that Faith could only sit through halfway on her own independently. The other half of the time, Faith was sitting on her lap. Hmmmm... as for Kenneth? He was the same! good beginning though.

Kenneth's new MTV

Kenneth is in the stage of imitating people. Its really amusing to watch him do adult stuff!

Samuel's New Haircut

Samuel's hair is in a total mess. All standing up and no sense of style. Enough is enough. Today, I decided to bring the younger boy for a hair cut! Wow! He really looks different right? so handsome and so fresh! ha ha...

Kenneth trying the motorised car

We decided to bring both boys to East Coast for a walk. There, we saw children playing with the motorised cars and scooters. We decided to let Kenneth try. My goodness.. Its so expensive! $2 for 5 mins! We paid for 10 mins and the uncle renting the toy to us really kept a close and tight watch on the time. Kenneth enjoyed it but he was scared of it initally. ha ha.. he did not really know how to control the wheel and of course, he just went round and round!

My First Friend

Auntie Yongli gave me a toy sometime back. Mama decided that now is the right age for me to play with my toy. What is it??? Its Elmo! He is my new friend. I like him very much. I even tasted him! ha ha ... my verdict? My rice cereal taste soooooooo much yummier!

Samuel Sitting up on his own

Samuel attempted to sit on his own today. Quite fun watching him trying to balance his butt on the mattress and sitting up straight. ha ha..

Samuel eating his first semi solid

Samuel ate his first semi solid today. He is only 5 months old and he is eating. Goodness... really much faster than his elder brother. I wanted to introduce it to him only when he turns 6 months old. However, this younger boy has other plans. He is a total opposite of his elder brother. He basically does not like drinking milk so I was left with little choice. Had to feed him semi solids to increase his total food and milk intake. sigh... again.. held victim by the bosses!

Brotherly love

Look! Mama bought us the same set of Gap pajamas. Mine is bigger while Samuel's is much smaller. Nice?

Samuel Holding his own bottle

Samuel is learning how to hold his own milk bottle. This little boy is very determine to control his own food and milk intake so he learns quickly to hold his bottle so that he will take it out when

Kenneth singing his ABC song

So amusing listening to Kenneth sing his ABC song. Its really wonderful and it will always be a wonderful memory hearing him sounding the words of the song. Listen and enjoy

Samuel @ 4 Months

Here is new updates of Samuel. Samuel is smiling more often and it is really so enjoyable watching and hearing him chuckling and laughing aloud.

Make a Smilebox slideshow

Samuel goes for his first SWIM!

All parents naturally want to be fair to their children. I remember when Kenneth was at Samuel's age, we were so excited to let me try swimming that we bought our own swimming tub and float in Shanghai for him. Even though Samuel may not have the chance to try swimming in Winter, at least we should not deprive him of swimming in summer. What we realise is that he is much better swimmer and enjoys playing in water more than his brother. Thinking back, can't help feeling how fortunate kids are these days. Or should I say, how fortunate we are, to be able see that our kids have the best things in life.

Kenneth's Day out with Faith Faith

Kenneth and Faith Faith had an excursion yesterday. We brought them to Parkway parade for lunch and shopping. After that, they attended a trial class at My Gym.

hmmmm...My Gym? Well.. The place was rather small. I expected the Gym to be bigger but that did not deter the kids from enjoying themselves. The teachers at My Gym cautioned us that the kids might suffer from seperation anxiety. If they cry, they told us not to worry. I replied, " Just look at both our kids, they are running all over the place! I do not think they will be having seperation anxiety at all. They seem so comfortable with this place." (Before I finished my sentense, I noticed that Kenneth has already made 6 rounds around the gym!) Seperation anxiety?? hope.. not for Kenneth and Faith! Ha ha.

I was really quite proud of Kenneth. He tried many stations and he really worked out. After the class, he told me to carry him. Imagine! I had to carry this 15kg boy all the way from his class to the taxi stand at Parkway Parade. That was a good 10 mintues workout for me too! My poor boy really could not walk anymore. Aiyoh.. so heartache to see him like this! He was super super tired. well, it was really a good place for him to release his endless energy.

Our First Mess 4 Family Trip

The Mess 4 Mummies decided to go for a mass holiday together. (Finally! After years and years of planning) We decided that it will be carried out over a weekend with no maids and no grandparents! So, 8 adults,
3 kids, 4 cars, 3 car seats, 2 strollers, 1 swimming float and 8 bags set off for Malacca on Saturday 30/8/08. Oh Boy! It was really fun! We should have carried out this holiday plan a long long time ago. Well.. better late than never!

Daemain borrowed 4 walkie talkies and each car was assigned to one. We joked, talked and even sang on the walkie talkies. Kenneth even shared his Barney music on the frequency to Ethan and Megan. H aha..

Check out The Goh Family pictures and I am sure you will agree that a picture means a thousand words. Let alone, soooo many pictures!

Gong Gong's 60th Birthday Celebration

Gong Gong is 60 years old! Time Flies! Even Gong Gong cannot believe that he is so old already... ah ha.. of course, he joked about his age but I believe he is really grateful to God for allowing him to experience love and family unity.

Gong Gong wanted a small private affair and so Mama made the arrangements. Of course, with the help of Uncle Cheese, the whole celebration was a huge sucess. Mama and Uncle Cheese split the cost of the celebration equally. Papa provided advises and transportation, transporting Mama and us to buy the party decorations. Check out the pictures! Mama was SUPER proud of the final outlook of the private room. Gong Gong was surprised and we were happy. The food and the ambience were simply awesome. We had a great time that Mama decided to come again again. ha ha.. maybe for Grandma's 60th Birthday celebration??

Happy 60th Birthday Gong Gong!

Count on Me Singapore!

Kenneth and Samuel's First National Day. so cute.. watching both of them playing with the National Flag and singing the National day songs.

Our Trip to Greece

Our trip to Greece was Awesome! We really had a great time. Kenneth surprisingly behaved very well on the plane. Thank Goodness! Looks like he is ready to go on more trips! Ha Haa Papa just fainted again.

Samuel making his first smile

Samuel is already 2 months old. Just a week ago, he started smiling. I found it quite charming and tried several times to capture it on picture. It is really a very difficult task to do. This morning, I managed to capture some excellent pictures. I am looking forward to hearing him laugh and hearing him call me mama.
