Dragon Dance puppet

Here's a backdated post about my art-and-craft project in school. 妈妈 only manage to snap a photo of me with it today, that's why it's posted late.

This year for CNY, I made a dragon dance puppet - with help from teacher of course! I colored the dragon head by myself, and teacher helped to do the rest. Some of the other children's dragon head had whiskers. I didn't like that style....

弟弟 and I were playing with it during CNY. I hold its head, and 弟弟 hold its tail. Haha... quite fun.

Chinese New Year

This year is a little special for us children because 爸爸 and 妈妈 bring us to 極樂寺 for our annual 拜拜. These couple of years, 爸爸 and 妈妈 will bring us to temple to pray for our health, well-being, safety, happiness...... and the list goes on. We lighted a candle for our 合家. There were many people visiting, traffic jam all the way up and down the hill. But it was worth it, because the lights are amazing. 妈妈 took the photo with the pagoda and lights, she thinks it looks very artistically interpreted.

I'm taking photos with these lovely flowers because 爸爸 and 妈妈 say I am dressed in yellow like them..

Since it's getting late and we're all tired... we did not take the new tram up to the 观音statue. 爸爸 say, let's save it for next trip. 弟弟 is also getting tired and cranky, he's not as good at posing for photos like me so we get less photos with him.

拜年

We went to 大姨婆's house during 初一. I shake hand with my cousin, who is younger by about 1 year old. I am no longer baby of the family??

The clothes that I am wearing are gift from 薇姨婆.

At first 姐姐 is wearing Kitty t-shirt, which is gift from 薇姨婆 also. But she has a surprise present from 三姨婆 and 薇姨婆.

So she went to change into her new presents, a nice pink hat from 薇姨婆 and pretty skirt and blouse from 三姨婆. 姐姐 has so many new clothes this Chinese New Year until her wardrobe is exploding!

弟弟：姐姐, why you look different?

CNY mini concert

My music class hv Chinese New Year mini concert. We sing 'Come and play with me' and play 'Roller Coaster' (do-do-do) together at our keyboards. Then each of us went up to stage individually to play Happy Elephant (do-re-do) and Riding on the Clouds (do-re-mi). I watch the DVD for the songs frequently with 弟弟, so I'm quite familiar with them. I practise sometimes on the piano.... 妈妈 say I play quite nicely this time and I try to follow the music! Finally we sing 恭喜 恭喜。。。 but I am not familiar with this one. Hehe, I prefer Christmas songs.

Unfortunately 妈妈 forgot to bring camera and cellphone so not able to post any photos this time.

I love music class!

Furry Friends

Here's my favorite toy. She is a gift from 妈妈's good friend. See how we grow up together.

Here are my other toys.

For 弟弟, his toys' photos are in Facebook.

Penang Hill visit

Another very back-dated post to put in pictures how was the Penang Hill trip for the children :) The furnicular train had been taken down since Feb 2010. Since this visit, we had not the chance to go as we're afraid the queue would be long with the new train. We'll wait, after all it's not going anywhere :P

At the Penang Hill Bottom Station. 弟弟 is so small then.

This fountain became our background prop very often

The good ole' Penang Hill Furnicular Railway at the top left photo.

The even older version of Penang Hill funicular railway.
And more fountain photos :)

Everywhere they go, they must play at the playground they found :)

My favourite photo of the trip. Look at the beautiful sky :)

Siblings

弟弟 and I have grown a lot. Bet you couldn't recognize us if you haven't seen us in a while. I'm still learning to be a 姐姐. 爸爸 and 妈妈 thinks I'm getting better lately.

弟弟 just a newborn baby here.


弟弟 at about 6 months.
