2012- An Eventful Year

Here's a recount of the small and big little things for our 2012.

Jan

Jared started P1 at our choice of primary school Pei Chun Public and Kaylen started her nursery  classes at TRBK

We had our 1^st appointment for Whampoa B114 just few days before CNY. And After 1^st week of CNY, we officially moved out from Sembawang.

Feb

Jared was having frequent classes of violin practice like up to 3x weekly were spent at Mandenville for Masterclass and Technique class for his grade 2 Exam in March

Mar

Jared took his violin exam, and after the exam we brought him for a relaxing movie treat.

The same week, we had the 2^nd appointment of B114 where we officially gotten the keys

Renovation for Whampoa B114 started almost immediately the following week.

Apr

We got back Jared’s violin exam result, which is pass with merit…Really happy and daddy’s hard work paid off.

We also got him a place at TLL English tuition, as Prof Thanh schedule could not fit in…so we decided to change a teacher..So Paiseh, as prof has worked hard to help Jared with the exam

May

Renovation completed on the 1^st week of May.

We took 2 long weekend holidays to thoroughly clean the whole place..

Found out that our stuff at storage was lost…stress…

Officially moved in B114 without the storage stuff like Fridge, washing machine, study table etc..

June

Did not go for any holidays as all cash was used on the new house

Jared went for his Math & science camp in school

I brought them for Magadascar movie which we all enjoyed so much

July

Surrender to ICA

Aug

Celebrated Kaylen’s birthday in school and was informed that she will be speaking for her class for year end concert..Kam chiong kam chiong..as she is shy by  nature..

Sep

As we did not do much on Jun holidays, so this 1 week holidays was over packed with activities.

1 N D’kranji farm stay with ah yi and grands..where the kids enjoyed so so much…and on Kaylen’s bday we went to Melaka..again the kids had a great time.

Oct

School concert rehearsal 1^st time open for parents to watch..I had a good time snapping pictures and videos. And Kaylen did a good job for MCing the concert

Again on actual concert day, Kaylen did us proud…by speaking nicely.

Nov

Kids kampong trip for Kaylen and daddy where daddy found out that she is super popular, there are 3 boys who like her a lot in her class

Jared had a good result and we were invited for prize giving ceremony in PCPS..So proud of Jared ‘s hardwork..Hope this continues!

We have another new didi (my new nephew, kids's new cousin) –baby Reagan joining the family who’s bday is just 3 days away from Jared’s.

Road trip to Legoland..for Jared’s 7^th birthday..So glad that we took the time off to have full day of fun with the kids.

Dec

We went for a family of 4 trip to HK..it has been really long we had not being doing the small family trip since Tokyo ’09 trip. It was a much relaxing trip for me as I only had the kids  tummy to worry about instead of all the family members big and small’s tummy. Although there were times when I blew up, when Jared complained too cold, too tired and wanna play phone games instead of watch out for new things in the trip…there were many many more happy and exciting moments..for eg. this is probaly the 1st time Kaylen knew that it's winter times..though she had experienced many times, but were much younger..

Seeing how much they enjoy the hotel stay with junks overdose each time..and finally the excitement of us all meeting Disney characters..hugging and kissing them…and the beautiful fireworks up close….So tiring to lug them along every trip..but it was a trip the adult and kids deserved for the hardwork we put up in 2012.

To a BETTER, SMOOTHER, HAPPIER 2013!
