Aricia's life story: December 2007

31st December - Monday
It's New Year Eve where the silly adults usher in the new year by countdown. I'm not that silly, I want my precious sleep.

We went out to a place called Red House for seafood - and what can I say.... I don't get to eat the nice crabs but only fish, vegetables, scallops and man-tou. Yah! And that is only when I protested and refuse to eat what Aunty Zet has cooked for me. So they have to feed me.

We were there at close to 7pm, and we waited for mama, yeye, dua-gu, dua-kim and Ignatius. Ah-yi is in Beijing, enjoying herself to remember us! ( I hope she buys something for me)

Photos of me waiting... and waiting

Yeye with the 3 cute grandchildren

After dinner, they went to the seaside and lit up the sparklers - which I was so afraid of.

Then it's time to go.. gotta tell you coz' my daddy and mummy very old man / woman, cannot stay up late outside now. Boring people huh?

I better don't complain about them... otherwise next time they won't even think about bringing me out!!

22nd December - Saturday

Daddy brought us out for a show - Alvin And The Chipmunk - at Cathy Cineleisure.

Before the show, we went for dinner at a chicken rice stall. But I don't get to eat..... Aunty Zet brought my dinner out. *sians* How is it that I cannot eat outside food??

This is a collage of photos taken in a span of 2 minutes. See how my expression changes so fast. In the first row, 3rd picture shows me signing "eat"
In the second row, also the 3rd picture. Daddy was nagging at me so I gave him a funny look. Anyway, I'm still aggitated over the fact that I can't eat outside food.

After dinner, they walked back to the cinema for the show. I get to sit next to Aunty Zet. I enjoyed the show.... well there's music you see! I was a good girl in the cinema - really!

After the show, they walked to a place called Plaza Singapura. We took some photos outside. I saw the figurines of a man and a woman looking at a baby, just like my daddy and mummy looking at me. This baby was born in a manager, I was born in a hospital.

24th December - Monday
Today is Christmas Eve. Whatever does that mean?
Mummy did some shopping.
In the evening, daddy went to mama's house and we went out for dinner - which I DON'T GET TO EAT. SO WHY BRING ME OUT?!?!?!

25th December - Tuesday
One year ago, I was this small..

One year later, I'm this big..

and I still don't understand what is Christmas. But what the heck! I have presents and food, which I may get to eat. Here I am digging what a man called Mr Santa gave me. I woke up in the morning to see his by my cot. Wow!

I was so excited with this something new. So I opened it with great enthusiast, biting things hoping they're 糖. But I ended up "pwew-ing" out the papers. Eeeks!

More surprises for me under the tree. (prancing about) pressies , pressies, I've got more presies

Present from Aunty Zet

From mummy

From mummy (again?) Can I eat this? Oh! This is a shoe??

Bear bear from daddy

My presents this year!

Then after my shower, I had to wear this very red red dress, like going to 拜年 like that

We went to mama's house for lunch. Yay! Does it mean I get to eat what the adults eat?? But then........I saw Aunty Zet packing my lunch in. Sob...sob... I want to grow up faster so that I don't have to eat homecook food all the time.

It was a small party for family members and dua-gu's Godma and Godsister.

Here's me arriving in style with my 3 helpers

Posing by the Christmas tree

I'm a social butterfly, mingling with guests - kor kors and che-che

Opening of presents time!! Yay, the youngest one - Ignatius gets to go first. And we being the che-ches get the priviledge of helping him to open up his first present.
Ps. After that I was bored.........

and gladly went to Yishun mama and tell her "eat" and do my babysign. She gave me a small piece of goreng pisang. Well, at least this is much better than waiting to see what Ignatius have, and I don't get to keep his present.

After a long long wait, che-che opened hers and then I opened mine. The bag is from dua-gu; dua-kim. The box is from Yishun mama.

Mummy gave the 3 of us a little Santa bag packed with goodies. Not much goodies though, coz' mummy do not want any sugar overload. So she packed in Pigeon snacks, pigeon drink, toy and a pencil - which I can't use now..

I was getting a little restless and I threw my 小姐脾气. Finally daddy and mummy decided to make a move. Afterall I received my first souvenir in mama's house from knocking my head against the edge of the cabinet...and I want mummy to sayang me in my home. In the car, che-che was going to knock out in Kuning-land. While I was playing peek-a-boo with daddy.

At home, after being in a much better mood. I opened my Santa bag to see what's inside.Ooh... I love being a child!

26th December - Wednesday Mummy sent che-che to school in the morning, and then she brought me back to Dr Tan for my MMR vaccination. Oh my! We waited real long to see her and mummy did make appointment - which got her even more mad for waiting to 2 hours!!!Actually, I was feeling quite restless too. I'm tired but I can't sleep. After that, mummy had to rush down to meet Godma to pass her her presents and I got mine too! In Godma's workplace, I was helping her to do some work which mummy said I was messing up the place. Actually..... I wasn't really helping her, I wanted to do some custom check. I poo-ed in my diapers so mummy made a quick run back to the car and went over to PP to meet che-che's Godma.

27th December - Thursday
Ooh! This is life!! You don't have to study at all but play and play. I promise myself never to grow up at all.

We went out to VivoCity for che-che's playdate. I also have a playdate with Ignatius.

They forgot to remove my diaper, see how absorbent Drypers is. If that is not bad enough, the panty was too lose and it showed my bum.

Ooh... dinner time. Di-di and I get to sit together

(laughing to self) We have a bowl and a spoon each

Aricia : di-di, does it mean we get to eat adult food?

Ignatius : Yes, che-che. If not why they put a bowl and spoon here?

Aricia & Ignatius : Oh no! Home-cooked food again!!

This time round daddy brought us to Vivocity. I wanted to go into the water but mummy don't allow me as she did not bring additional clothes for me.
