Sports Day 2010

Sports Day today! This year Sports Day is held at North Sports Center at Gelugor. It's covered so we don't have to worry about bad weather. The "field" (it's fake grass!!!) is surrounded by netting so parents' hung around. It's also very difficult to take photos as the net is made of some fibre/metal which reflects light especially when other ppl move the netting.

The children gathering by class.

姐姐 waiting to march out for Negaraku and school songs.

Closer shot

弟弟, very difficult to snap photo as he is small and surrounded by so many other children.

Ready for marching

弟弟 also ready to march. Hey why his t-shirt came out. Look at the way he is standing.

What a tiring day! We knocked out after simple lunch at home. No energy to cook dinner so we had pizza and lasagna delivery. It's been some time since our last pizza so the children enjoyed very much.

弟弟 this morning

While I was taking photos of the mother's day gifts, 弟弟 wanted to take his photos too.

Sigh... 弟弟 is so cute, how come this angle look so much like 爸爸?

Sports Day 要穿 sports shoes 的!

Last 2 weeks 姐姐 keep reminding us, Teacher 讲 Sports Day 要穿 sports shoes 的! Even during waiting to get her immunization jab (3rd jab for 5 years old) on Saturday also keep talking about it. So ended up we have to scout for sports shoes for them.

姐姐 is growing older, seems like peer pressure is building up. 爸爸 says that if all the children in her class wears sports shoes and she doesn't have (as hers already too small), she would feel bad.

At first we thought 弟弟 can wear 姐姐's old Garfield sports shoes (bits of pink, so not suitable for boy.. better not let him so many girls' stuff or risk him getting sissy). So end up kena buy for her and 弟弟. No photo as 卜来卜去 looking for shoes.

Updated with photo of the sports shoes.... both wearing same size 32.

Mother's Day gift

My gift from the children this year. As usual teacher will help them make a gift for mother. Since both are in pre-school now, I get 2 gifts :)

From 姐姐, it's a heart necklace.


From 弟弟, it's a flower bracelet. The "mommy" looks a bit scary with the big eyes and bluish face... but still happy that it is done by 弟弟.

Leisurely weekend

Forgot what we did that weekend, but got a photo of both children in red clothes. They also wore this to Mother's Day celebration at school.

Take that, you naughty gecko!

While watching Tom & Jerry cartoon, 姐姐 suddenly say "Look, there is a gecko just run past the container!" Gecko is the way she calls lizard. Argh how I hate lizards. So out with all the "tools" aka swatters. We don't use it on flies but on lizards.

See 弟弟 also take one and follow 爸爸. Finally 爸爸 manage to swat at it. It was quite a hardy one.


姐姐 insist to take part after 爸爸 "conquer" it. See the children taking their turns to swat until it is "gone".

So good to get rid of one more pest and blessed with 2 brave "soldiers" and "commander" at home.
