Happy 2010!

Happy 2010!

We'll be moving house in Jan 2010. So 2010 seems to signal a lot of beginnings for us.

A new place to live. I'm a bit apprehensive about how Sean will adapt to moving. Although we've told him about it, he still thinks that we'll be moving into a new house but the current one will still be around.

A new school for Sean. He has orientation on 3rd Jan, but school only starts for Nursery children on 18th of Jan. I hope his transition into new school goes smoothly. But there's really nothing I can do until it really starts. So we're just going to wing it.

There'll be many new beginnings in 2010. Here's a toast to the coming year. May it be blessed and bring new and wonderful experiences. =D

We celebrated our last Christmas party in this house in a big way. We cooked a lot of food! We had: Turkey, roast lamb, Spaghetti Carbonara, Bolognaise, Prawn salad, Tomato Bruschetta, garlic bread, Mango with yogurt and of course punch. Some of our relatives brought a huge tray of yam cakes, noodles, and a big Caramel white chocolate macademia cake.

What's also great was we had many relatives coming back from Singapore and Australia. So it was mostly a big family gathering. On Sam's side anyway.

Sean @ 39 month

This is very late. It's because Sean has been hogging my laptop so much recently. By the time he's not playing, and I'm no longer busy, I'm too tired to use the computer.

Mr. Why
Probably the most significant thing this month is Sean's incessant 'Why's. I can't remember how many months ago he started asking 'Why' but this month, he has at least 5-10 'Why's in every conversation. Now we know why other parents say, "don't worry about him speaking late, once they start, it's hard to keep them quiet." ha ha ha....

Christmas party at last day of Playgroup
The only thing I remembered to take photos of this month is the last day of Playgroup when we had our Christmas party. Sam was the Santa Claus of the day. When Sam came out from hiding ho-ho-ho-ing, Sean wasn't fooled for a second. He immediately asked, " Why is Daddy Christmas?" (He meant Santa Claus) Since we never really talked much about Santa Claus, he just associated him with Christmas. Even when taking photos together, he wasn't taking pictures with Santa Claus but with Daddy Christmas.

I invited the mummies and kids over to the house for an extended playgroup. The kids had a great time. We gave 2 of the rabbits away, Akamaru to Faye and Alvin, and Zorro to Jacqueline, Ethan, Jonathan, and Grace.

I invited a few mums and kids over the week after but most are already traveling to hometown. So only Sam and Yen came with their youngest who were much younger than Sean. So Sean went up to play computer with his Daddy while I had such a great time chatting that I went late to teach tuition. =P

I've also been busy packing the things in the storage room since we'll be moving house next month. So I haven't played much with Sean. He has been playing lots of computer games with Daddy. Daddy made a blog list of all Sean's games. This is Sean's game blog http://seansflashgames.blogspot.com/

But I found his old inflatable ball pit, which the maid almost thrown away, and blew it up and filled it up with balls. Sean insisted that I joined him inside the ball pit. So we had a wonderful time rolling around inside the ball pit. We even crashed the standing fan because of our enthusiasm. =P The next morning, I found parts of the pit deflated. Ha ha ha... I had punctured it. =P
