Popiah

We saw some MengKuang aka turnip at the supermarket so decided to do PoPiah!!

Is my first time in doing it, went to do some research and it seems pretty easy!

Haha...say too early!!

Preparing and Cooking is easy but when you want to combine everything is the problem.

From the picture, you can see the skin "peeling". Haha...some are even worst, the 2 ends just "burst" out!!

Alfred say I too generous already!! Will loss money!! =P

Peek - A - Boo - ReAnne's Version!

CAUGHT!!

While i was preparing water for our little princess, I saw her head over the cot!!

SHOCK!!

Quickly rush out and realise she manage to pull herself up in a "Kneeling" position!!

She been practicing her pulling skill by using me as the wall but dinno she can do it so fast!!

Time for Mr Alfred to do something to her bed liao!!

(The "Railing" of the cot cant be pull up)

Yesterday afternoon, she fell asleep in this funny position.

Come to think about it, I think I used to sleep in this position when I was young as well!!

=)

The Happy Destroyer!!

Sunday Class @ Gymboree

We brought ReAnne for a Trial Class at Gymboree!

Happy ReAnne getting ready for her Play class Although she did cry in the class again (But lesser than the other 1)but Alfred and I feels that this class is so much better than I like Gym.

As in the class, they sing and dance more. So is so much more enjoyable for a 7mths old baby!

So we decided to go for the class every week!!
Yeah!


After class, the cranky gal is feeling so much better after a short nap!

A Weekend Excursion!

On Saturday, we went for an excursion to the Horse Farm!
It was nice to go somewhere outskirt other than the city which we are already so bored of.

Early in the morning and we are all very excited about our excursion!!

Is not a bad place but too bad, Baby ReAnne is too young for it. Probaby next time ya!

After the horse farm, we went to a "Theme Park"

Is a theme park that is equipped with all sort of games you want but is pretty old.

As usual, we played nothing as nothing seems to interest us!
So as usual, we did our usual stuff!

Camwhoring!!

睿恩七个月大了!!!

Woohoo...our little princess is 7Mths old le.

More than half a year gone and very soon she will be celebrating her 1st Birthday!!

Mummy is cracking her brains to think how to have a Blast Birthday for her.

Well, lets hope that things are going the way we want!!

Mango Cake

We have alot of mangoes (Ripe mangoes) from Alfred's cousin that day. So in order not to waste the mangoes, I decided to bake a Mango cake.

This is my 1st attemp to bake a cake with fillings and cream.

Appearance not very nice as my cream crack!

I think is because i never put thick enough!

But taste wise, yummy!

The sponge cake is very soft!!

Maybe i should start my baking again!!

haha

Swim Swim Swim

On Sunday, we finally brought her to the pool for her first dip.

This Swimming diapers are specially flew in from Singapore by Alfred's supplier!

As we are not able to find any in JKT!

All set ready to go for swimming!

See how super duper good mood she is!! =) She loves swimming!
We thought she will probably cry just like what happen at the Baby Spa but no, she enjoy the water!!


Not too bad for a first timer ya??

We let her play for only about 10mins.
As the water is not very good for her delicate skin so once a week 10mins will do!

I Like Gym

We brought ReAnne to a baby gym call " I Like Gym"

Basically is for her to crawl around, mix with other babies and have fun.

Preparing to go out for class!

While waiting for class to start!

She is still in happy mode!!
Just before the class start, I brought her in to get used to the environment first.
She was doing pretty well initally and enjoyed the welcome song and warm up.

BUT!

Once more and more babies came in, she started to be cranky!

AND

She cried almost the whole session!!

I think she is just not used to the environment with so many people!

We will continue to look at other schools and probably sign up 1 for her to mix around with people if not i think she will end up very "Gu Pi" in the end.

I can Sit le!!

Woohoo!! Today ReAnne finally able to sit by herself but of cos with me around!
Now she will tend to push my hands away when I put her in sitting position and balance herself!!
=)

ReAnne's 1st Swim!!

Been wanting to bring ReAnne to swim ever since she touched her 6mths. But as we are not able to get any Swimming diaper here (Don't know how the kids here swim without any swimming diaper!!) we been delaying it till now.

Today we brought her to Spa Baby, something like "Hua Xia" in sg for her first dip into the "Pool" which is actually a big sink!

Before we go, better make sure this little gal gets her milk and her snacks!!

She munching her biscuits while we "Enjoying" our lunch!

Spa Baby

This place provides Aqua Swim, Massage,Masks and even medicure and pedicure.

While waiting for our turn, some camwhoring!!

Still in joyful mode till ...........

After a while, using all the toys to distract her, she get slightly better

But it did not last long. So in the end, she only swim for less than 10mins.

I think she is just not comfortable with the float around her neck as she is not able to see her fingers bah!

Hopefully she will enjoy swimming in real pool more!
