Cici Shayana's Birthday

super hot.
a lot of fun.
met my lao shi and hasanah.
he wasn't afraid of the clown today. *I am so proud*

We don’t do this too often, but every time we do this, Caden is always excited.

Today, he was more than excited. He started with just looking at me drawing houses, boat, flower, rain (he likes drawing rain and thunder), etc on the paper, but soon, he painted some on the paper and…on HIMSELF!

I let him painted both of his feet for a while, but brought him straight to the bathroom when he started walking around the house; he would make the house filled with ‘interesting’ colorful color in no time.

First Professional Hair Cut for Sasya

Oma cut Sasya’s hair yesterday and because she was moving around too much, the sides of were a little bit slanted. And, Oma was too scared to use a razor.

Because Sasya is going to have a birthday party soon, I decided to bring her to a hair salon that Caden always visits every month.

All of us picked Caden up from school and straight we went to the Kiddie Cuts at Forum (inside the Toys R Us).

Sasya was a little grouchy at first. I tried to carry her and try to make her sit by herself, too, but none works. At one point, Sasya was pointing her finger to Caden, so I thought let’s try it with Sasya sitting down next to Caden…

Anddd…it works!!! She did actually sit through the session quietly with Caden by her side.

Thanks koko Caden for all your help!

We should do this more often ya…. ^_^

A Day with Oma...

Zoo: Raining :-(

We went to the Zoo this morning just to catch his favorite show, the ‘Rainforest Fights Back.' But it was raining when we get there and soon it turned to drizzle.

I’ve bought Caden his first raincoat and he was excitedly wore it.

We waited at the entrance and asked the ticket booth if the show will be canceled. And they said, it should still be on.

Lots of people had sit down and waited for the show to start, when an announcement was heard that the show had been cancelled.

I heard a lot of disappointment from the audience, especially when there was not even a drizzle anymore.

Maybe because it was weekends and a lot of people were there, the Zoo decided to make all the casts and some animal came out and greet the audience.

Caden had a blast seeing the cast members of the ‘Rainforest Fights Back’ show. He even touched the snake today. ^_^

Dress-Up Party

The kids were told to dress-up like their favorite book character. I was so happy that I’ve bought this Bob The Builder costume from the US.

Caden was very excited to wear this costume that he talked about it again and again last night and this morning.

I am amazed on how big Caden is. I bought this costume for the age 4-6 years old, but it looks like it’s not going to fit him by the end of the year. Hiks....

With Mommy at Takashimaya

Story Telling: "Jesus Died on The Cross"

Caden: "....bad guys..."

Suster: "Yes with the bad guys, with the soldiers..."... Read More

Caden: "This is the bad guys, this is the bad guys. Bad guys died on the cross with Jesus"

Suster: "Ooo...."

Caden: "It is, suster..."

Suster: "And then how does the story goes?"

Caden: "And then died on the cross, and then do you see, those are the bad guys ??" Bad guys, go up to the Cross and died on the Cross. And then Jesus go up and died on the cross, too. And then one more go up and died on the CROSS!!!

Suster: “And then?” [while flipping to the next page]

Caden: “And then the rock is closed [flipping the next page]. And then Angel said, Jesus is not here, Jesus is alive. And then, it’s so bright…..ahhh…ahh….ah…..[closing eyes and scream] I cannot see!!!! Angel is too bright!!!”

Suster: “Ooo….”

Caden: “And then the rock opened, and then Jesus gone, and then already died on the cross. And then Jesus is gone…”

This is the part where it gets so funny:

Caden: “And then Angel said, go and tell others that Jesus died on the cross. And then Jesus came back (i.e alive)".

[Supposed to be, “go and tell others that Jesus has alive”] hehe....

The Boy Who Cried Wolf

We went out to watch this show, “The Boy Who Cried Wolf.” I should say it was a very good show. It was really catchy and engaging that Caden, who was not even 3 years old yet, able to sit down throughout the entire show.

The one thing that I notice the most is that, if I’ve bought a story book similar to the story line of a show, Caden would be more interested and more curious about what was going to happen next. I can really see it in his eyes.

We all love the show. Very good story lines and very good props, too.

National Day Celebration at School

Eyes Check Up

Two people, my mom and an uncle who had just passed away, had told me that Caden eyes may not be in the right position, i.e he probably has a lazy eye syndrome.

I thought I checked him up, just to make sure that everything is alright.

We did this check up when he was 13 months old in the Kinder Clinic, but today, we went straight to their office at Shaw Centre called Pediaoptix.

They have what they called to be a “gun.” The optometrist pointed and ‘shoot’ the gun to Caden’s eyes and a reading was right away transfered to a computer. With that, she was able to get nearly accurate reading on his eyes.

Thankfully, everything was alright. His eyes were perfect as for now.

Caden still has a little bit short-sightedness, but it is normal for someone as young as him has a little bit of it. The short-sightedness will gradually go away when he is older.

I really hope that his eyes will stay perfect (read: he doesn’t have to wear any glasses) until at least he is in Primary 5, where he is able to take care of himself better.

I have to pray hard for it.

Sing "1,2,3 Jesus Loves Me"

One, two, three, JESUS loves me
Four, five, HE gave me life
Six, seven, my home is Heaven
Eight, nine, bright as sunshine
The last number I learn is ten
For HIS promise I say AMEN!!

at Orchard Road

A lot of bands are performing along the Orchard area this week, in conjuction for the National Day.

Caden loves to listen to them for a long time before mommy has to pull him home.
