29th June Daredevil goes singapore flyer

Ryann being voted Little dare devil in 2008 by September mummies showed me his daring acts in the capsule of the Singapore Flyer.


Looking down for a good view.
Things became smaller and smaller.

Happily playing with the handle bars.


It is so hard to get these pictures of him looking at the camera.


Posing =p

Never miss a chance to play with hubby's phone.


With my mum.

Look tired after running around.

Stepping on the glass!

No smile serious face Ryann. So ah beng look.
Singapore Flyer definitely not worth the price for Singaporeans but once is enough for a lifetime.

28th June Ryann's class

Today we learned about the letter Z. Teacher Russell was on leave and thus teacher Diane took over. She had this very deep accent which i am really not used to it. Was enduring through out the class. =p Not that i have perfect english but it was really a strong accent and half of the time i am trying to figure out what she is trying to say.



Ryann was pretty responsive to the songs we sing and he was walking around the room and 'high five' with almost every one. I felt like crying when i saw that! Haha. You can call me emo but it was really happy tears to see Ryann interacting with others. He taps along with the teachers at times and was enjoying himself.



Things will never be the same when it is zoo bag time. We introduced zebra, zoo and zig zag but Ryann was interested with none. He only got involved when we were walking on the zig zag lines. However it was a total different reaction when he saw the flash cards out. He was able to do many movements and made quite a few phonics sounds. He managed to show me 2 new actions - L and O. His P action is getting more obvious then before. Hopefully he will show more response on his speech.



They introduced the traffic light game to teach fast, slow and stop. For project they did the traffic light cookie. Nutella was applied by me and Ryann placed the m&m on the cookie. It went right into mummie's tummy. =p

Today's class was very chaotic. half of the time the teachers were busying trying to discipline the kids to sit down. Most of them especially Ryann were running everywhere. Thank God for the teacher's patience.

p/s: Brought a sesame street finger paint set that came with apron.

24th June My investment

I invested 3.5k on a vacuum cleaner because i really had enough of dust flying around the house. Some of you might think that i am crazy but after u see the demo, you will really be convinced and for the family, it is all worth it.

Our mattresses and pillows were all swept clean from dust. The water turn black and my mattress is only like 3 years old. imagine those longer then that! Best part is when i clean Ryann's mattress. Shocked by the amount of dust.

Great investment to protect our family especially kids since they are more prone to dust or irritation.
Any one wants to get free demo, feel free to get the contact from me.

p/s: Updates on day 2 of our trip is up. =p

21st June 5th day - Ryann's 1st trip out of Singapore

We met up at 6.30am to catch the sunrise and it was pitch dark when we woke up. It was a little cloudy thus we didnt really see the sun rising from the horizon but we only caught part of it. Great experience we had. Bye Pulau Ketam!
Ryann woke up to wait for sun rise too. See this ah beng. He must be angry that mummy woke him up to watch sun rise.
Pitch dark at 6.30am.

Slightly brighter.

Beautiful skies.

Brighter and brighter

Seems to be covered by cloud.

Beautiful reflections on the cloud

We saw something!

Big red sun!

Bright and clear.

Beautiful day has begun.

They were entertaining themselves. Guess what?


Crabs and more crabs and lots of crabs

See all those black spots? Crabs hiding place.

Our hotel - Sea lion hotel. When low tide, we are just on pillars like that. And guess you know where our waste water from the shower rooms and toilets goes to.


We had our dinner in Kulai Johor. Celebrating father's day as well.
Seated on the left is my grand father in law. Happy Fathers' day to Hubby as well. =p


Last day in Msia. All of us were glad we can leave that place. We are really not used to the run down place in kelong but i have to say it is already much accomplishment for a kelong to be so established.
We enjoyed ourselves pretty much but it is really tiring to handle Ryann on such a long bus journey. Thank God for the creation of portable dvd player. And all glory to God who healed Ryann when he vomited twice while we were travelling downhill. Too much of braking and turning, 3 kids and 1 maid threw up.
Overall, it was a fruitful trip all together and i have learned alot of new things about my in law family. We are so blessed.

20th Jun 4th day - Ryann's 1st trip out of Singapore

We only had a short 1 hour to visit KLCC in the early afternoon. After which we need to rush to Port Klang. It will take us 45 minutes of ferry ride to reach Pulau Ketam (Crab island).

We had the famous yang's bak kut teh. Very different taste as compared to Singapore but it surely taste good.



It was a hot afternoon and we had to struggle to get on the ferry. Old ferry with torn seats and stinky smell. But it managed to get us to our final destination of our msia trip. More photos to tell the story.



Ryann was practically so excited every time he saw a ride in the mall. There were many rides in KLCC. I never expose him to those coin operated rides thus he will always just imagine and just turn the wheels like he is driving.




See how happy he was?




Smile baby!



He love this winnie the pooh ride too.





KLCC joke: my cousins in law were trying to tell my grandfather in law that this is called the shuang feng ta (twin tower) , but some heard her saying san feng ta (flu tower).


Pulau ketam. There is no land underneath. when it is high tide, we are all covered with water.



Peeling fresh shrimps to prepare dried shrimps (xia mi)


Their only Christian kindergarten! Praise the Lord!
The population - 90% chinese 10% malay but majority of chinese are all taoist or buddism.

Young boy trying to catch crabs during low tide.


This is the other side of the small village.


Going to be low tide.

better view of the village.

Sunset.
We had a great steamboat dinner and was warmly entertained by the village head with KTV and mahjong facilities. The village being in the kelong area had not other entertainment but lots of them love to sing. Sister in law went for a hair wash at 12 RM. Although they do not have much entertainment, they still find joy in what ever they are doing.
This is definitely not what we 'city people' can appreciate.

19th jun 3rd day - Ryann's 1st trip out of singapore

Nothing much today, spent half a day on the bus and only had half day at KL. Didnt even have the time to shop. Roads were bumpy and not suitable for prams. But dinner was good.


How blessed are we to be staying in singapore with enclosed rubbish collection area. You can imagine the 'fragrant smell' i've experienced. - KL



Ryann playing with hotel phone again. =p

We first went to rose valley where lots of flowers and plants were found there. Including this 2 pot of cactus, from left, 40 years and 38 years old..

Smiling so happily.

He is really tired. he refuse to wake up for lunch because he is simply too tired already.

Corn plantations. Those are all corns.

First time ever in my life i have ever seen so many cactus before.


Favourite playtoy, PHONE!! Ryann will take the pencil and paper, hold the phone on one hand and write on the other hand as though he is doing big big business.


We went to the strawberries farm too. We were allow to go in and pluck strawberries from the plantation area. Grand pa in law enjoyed himself.
We went to the tea valley as well and some of the kids even climb the tea valley. beautiful scenes we have got there.
Very blessed trip.
