Xiao Jiujiu's birthday

We celebrated Xiao jiujiu's birthday a couple of weeks ago.

4 of us were definitely more excited than the birthday man. Before we blew candles, 4 of us were busy "chopping" the preferred cupcake. hahaha... and needless to say, 4 of us have also very helpful and enthusiastic to help jiujiu blow his candles too!

It was so difficult to take a decent picture of us. hahaha

Celebrating Children's Day 2012

On Children's Day, everyone in school is allowed to go to school in their favourite party dress! On the eve on the party, Xuan told us that she wanted to dress in her Snow White gown! Hahaha... We gave it a try and fortunately, the gown which we bought almost 2 years ago from HK Disneyland still fits her!!! Well, Xuan has lost most of her baby fats and that's explain why. Fortunately, the material used for the gown has a bit of elasticity to allow for expansion. :)

Xuan said that the teachers treated all the children to food like nuggets, sasuages and jelly. They played games and even have a simple fashion show! And Xuan is one of the selected models for the fashion show! hahaha...

Sport's Day 2012

Xuan has her 1st Sport's Day in August 2012

It was a good experience for both Xuan and didi. Weeks before the Sport's Day, both of us had practice session in school every friday. Back home, Xuan and didi were always running and hopping up and down, practising for the race! Xuan even asked for a spoon and a ping pong ball to practise her balancing skill while running.

Mommy was busy cheering for her 2 darlings in their every race while papa was busy capturing our every moments on the camera! We had fun! :D

Through this Sport's Day, Xuan has learnt how to cope the emotion of losing a game. Well, Xuan wasn't too happy when she didn't get a medal for the individual race. She was disappointed and was sulking for a while. She almost cried! It took quite a while for her to get over it despite mommy's consolation and encouragement.

Darling Xuan, remember that you have done your best and it is your best. It doesn't happen whether you win any medal. You had fun and we celebrate and cheer for your best effort okay!

Medals waiting for us!

Upon arrival.

My 1st individual race! Hopping on 1 leg all the way! It is really not easy. :p

The team relay race where we had to run a distance while holding a ping pong ball in a spoon. Fun!
Xuan is the 4th and last runner in the team and Xuan's team came in 1st!
Yay! Xuan's 1st gold medal!
