Chatty baby

While we didn't plan on having Baby No. 5 - and then we did, we have found Charlotte to be an absolute joy. Ok, not saying that had she been a difficult baby we would've have regretted it (lol) but it sure makes it easier when she's such a ray of sunshine most of the time.

She doesn't have bad moods. And she's really chatty and intelligent. At 2.5, she can pretty much hold a decent conversation. And she asks clever questions to boot. Today, as she was holding onto her My Little Pony figurine, she asked me how come the pony only had one eye. The figurine was made such that her mane fell over one eye this making it look like she was one-eyed. Since the mane was also made of moulded plastic, you couldn't just sweep it over the other side to reveal the hidden eye. 

I explained as simply as I could and just prayed she would either get it or drop the topic altogether. Lol. 

Here is my cutie.

Charlotte is growing up

My bestie keeps saying that for an accident baby (we hadn't planned on having a fifth baby), Charlotte is a real cutie. And very easy to handle. And smiley. And clever. Lol. What can I say, I'm her mom. I'm bias.

At just past 2 years of age, she can say a lot of things. And she's cheeky too. And she loves singing along to Kelly Clarkson in the car. 

I can still remember first finding out I was pregnant again. I had suddenly felt nauseous for no reason. I instinctively knew I was pregnant and quickly did the math AND a pregnancy test. Bingo. Lol. I totally blamed the stupid app I had on my iPhone that was supposed to tell me when my fertile days were so I could avoid getting knocked up. Didn't work out that way obviously. Lol. 

Here is a pic of my cutie pie and me.

More of the school holidays ..

We also took the girls to our favorite place .. The zoo. Ok, it's not really MY favorite place (who am I kidding) .. But I know the girls enjoy it and that's good enough for me.

They watched the elephant show and we had a good time trudging along w The Daddy as well.

The new S.E.A Aquarium at RWS.

The Daddy brought his girls to the new S.E.A. Aquarium at the Marine Life Park on after church last Sunday. It was very exciting. We parked at the Palawan Beach Carpark and hopped onto the beach tram which the girls enjoyed.






Here we are waiting to enter the aquarium :)











It's a really awesome aquarium. Apparently, the world's largest.









The girls were of course intrigued with the Discovery Touch Pool.










I don't have a photo here (cos my phone was dying at about that time ...) but my favourite was Zone 5 .. the Open Ocean .. where you look through what they tout as the planet's largest window to the ocean. It is indeed MAGICAL to see it all. Leopard sharks ... the magnificent manta ray .. you have to see it yourself.


Last photo of The Daddy and his girls before leaving. We will be back again !!

My baby had her ears pierced today!

Emily asked for her ears to be pierced last week! She's 6 and a half and once she's decided to do something .. She seldom changes her mind.

We brought her to b*dazzle and voila! My baby has pierced ears !!

Flowers!

Who doesn't love flowers? We brought the girls to see Sentosa Flowers this evening. It was a really cool and lovely walk. Not really crowded. Here are some pics.

Love my littlest baby

We didn't plan on having a 5th baby. God is good and God is great and He gave her to us :)

There are times I feel frazzled dealing with the whole gaggle of kids. But what the heck .. I love my kids to bits.

Claudia is 14!

Can't believe my first born turned 14 last week! Man, 14 years ?! She's now a teenager .. Pink repulses her now (lol) .. so she's mostly dressed in black now (duh) .. I think most teens do that. Heck, I still do that. Under some misguided idea that I'll look smaller somehow (haha) .. Anyway .. Back to Claudia ...

We surprised her with a One Direction cake. It's her all time favorite band. Man, the girl is a big fan. We bought her some One Direction merchandise. She was a happy teen. Happy Birthday to my first baby ever!

My little bubba is 2!

So happy :) Charlotte turned 2 on the 15th of January. She's such a happy baby. And generally easy to take care of. She's been a blessing to us even though we hadn't planned on having a 5th baby. Lol.

Christmas photos !!

We went to The Studio Loft to have our photos taken. It was a blast. Ok, Charlotte wasn't well that day .. She was down with a fever. We had a couple of nice smiley shots then it was downhill. Haha. I must say I do love the photos w her crying. They're really cute photos.
