X'mas Baking - Gingerbread Family

We, the Tan Family like to wish the readers of my blog..
A very Merry X'mas & Happy New Year!

Presenting the Gingerbread cookies that represents us, the Tan Family!




As X'mas is approaching, everyone is busy with christmas shopping or xmas baking for their loved ones & friends. However, our parents are too busy & hardly have time to shop for gifts this year. We also do not have the mood to set up our huge family xmas tree. My parents are too preoccupied with the frequent incidents that I've been facing in school & busy searching for new one, hoping the new environment will suit me fine.

Moreover, with our new member, Hebe, who is still very young, constantly needs hugs and attention from us.

Despite all this, Mummy tried to create some x'mas atmosphere to our family by involving me to do some handmade xmas cards & simple baking. Last week, we experiment a new recipe given by our neighbour last year, to do some gingerbread cookies for our loved ones. It is a success.. Yum Yummy!!



Mummy as the main chef.. she made the dough in that afternoon & chilled it for our use in the evening.

I'm her assistant chef, assisting to cut out the shapes and do simple decorating on them.

Here the freshly baked gingerbread cookies.. see the black dots on some cookies? That are those I help to decorate.

Happy with my 'master' work!

These are the pretty cookies decorated by Daddy, using the food marker.


we enjoy this whole baking process as it is a activity involving the whole family... we will wait till Hebe is older to join our baking session.

Looks forward to my new school

After frequent incidents that keep happening on me in school (especially on the last incident that we've posted), my parents had finally made the final decision & withdrawn me from my current school (after one more incident - finger scratch mark on my left cheek that occured last Wed, 16 Dec).

I will be with the school till 29 dec & starting in another new school on 4th Jan. This new school is different from this current cc, it is a kindergarten consists of daily 3.5 hours learning program. So Mama's daily task is to bring me to this school and fetch me home. I will also be having school holidays during June/Dec. We hope that the shorter time I be spending in this new school, will help to reduce the conflicts I may have with other new classmates. Moreover, the class is much smaller.

We are keeping our fingers crossed that I will adapt well in this new school and the new classmates will be nicer to me. So at this moment, we will not disclose the name of the new school I will be going.

P/S: Last Wed 16 Dec, I came back with a scratch mark on my left cheek & the teachers in my current school knows nothing of how it occurred. Mummy suspected that this is caused by fingernail of someone as the scratch mark is quite deep on my pretty face.

This evening (23 Dec), my mummy is totally outraged when she saw a red 2 inches long scratch mark on my right hand. Somehow, the teacher even indicated there is no visual mark when I left the school on my communication notebook. This time, I told my mummy & mama that I was scratched by a boy classmate during the playtime. My Mummy immediately called up the school and they do not know how it was happened. This proves that my parents' decision to withdraw me from this school is RIGHT! The teachers there definitely do not keep a tight rein over the kids there. Mummy feels that since I can relate to them so well, I must somehow have informed the teacher(s) there once this happened. This is strange why they are not taking action over such incident or bo chup attitude. Look at below pic / evidence that Mummy has took!

Can see the scratch mark on my right hand??



the red ugly long mark caused by the fingernail of that noti classmate of mine!

It seems that once in each week, I always back home with scratch mark. No wonder lately, I dread going to school every morn. Hence, today shall be my last day with the school. Bye bye to Star Learner!!!

Christmas Lightning along Orchard Road

Last Saturday...
Daddy decided to drive us out to eat yummy frog porridge at Geylang..
We did ask Mama & Gong Gong to join us but they are both sick, down with cough.. & only Ah Ma came along with us. After the hearty dinner, Daddy agreed to bring us to Orchard road to see the xmas lighting and let Mummy had the chance of window shopping. We parked our car at Ion Mall and the mall was so packed with crowds of shoppers. I was also busy roaming around and my parents have a hard time holding onto me..


A sight of Orchard road..
we reached there around 6.30pm after our early dinner.

Posing happily with Ah Ma with both of us seated at the back in comfort

I was so happy and tired upon reaching our home sweet home finally!

Bite Mark!

Hello!!
Sharing the bite mark that I've got bitten by my new classmate (girl) on last Tues.

When my mummy & Hebe fetched me from school bus in the evening, they are shocked to see such an ugly red mark caused by my new classmate / in my new transfer class.

Why new classmate(s) & new class??
Coz the week before this incident happened, I was kena pinched on right upper arm by this girl classmate, Megan, in my former class. There is a dark blue black bruises resulted from the pinch. My parents have brought this up to the principle and teacher in charge during the meet teacher session on 5 Dec. This is not the 1st incident that occured to me. I was also kena scratched by another girl's fingernails just about 2 months ago. Along the way since I've enrolled, I been scratched occassionally (once even by the care giver teacher who assisted to shower me, on my face). Some of the incidents & Mummy has already hightlighted to the teacher on such cases & most of the time, they just accept it as part of the growing as it is unavoidable when playing with other 'rough' kids in my class.

However, the bite mark is the last straw that my Mummy can take it! Teachers are saying that I was snatching toy from this girl, provoked her causing her to bite me. However, since there are 2 teachers who witness the whole incident. They should interfered & stop me from snatching the toy.. to prevent such ugly incident happened. Everytime, my parents hear the same thing from the teachers / principle and saying such cases is small matter.

Often, we wonder if the situation is reversed & if I'm the one who bit or pinched the others. Will the parents of the victim comes to us & cause a scene?? As of now, my parents yet to approach the parents of that classmate. My parents always taught me to be kind and nice to other kids. Must not involved in fighting with other kids. Yet this is what we got in return especially facing such mischievious kids. Though violent is not suggested here, I must learn to protect myself when facing to such kids.

My parents now looking for courses for me to learn the art of self defense as well for my well-being as form exercise.
If you are in my parents' shoes now, will you :
A) withdraw your child immediately from this school? OR
B) continue in this school ??

P/S: Edited post - agreed that violent is not the way to handle such situation.. and those kids are not really at fault. Parents and teachers should play an important role in disciplining the kids to avoid such situation.

More Sweet Poses!

Below are some sweet sweet poses taken together with my lil sis, Hebe.

Upon waking up each morning, I will walk over to Pooh room to look for my lil sister who will be slowly waking from her beauty sleep. Her smiles and yawn brighten up my morning. I would stay on to watch my sis having her bath before I left to take my school bus.

I'm such a good sister, will help my mummy to pick the clothes Or getting the required stuff (diapers / clothes) for Hebe. Sometimes, I help to feed her too by holding her milk bottle.

My face would light up whenever Mummy bring mei mei to wait for my return each evening. I would give her a big hug and kiss.


~ Lots of Love from Hayley to her Hebe ~

Presenting our new car, NISSAN Latio Premium

This is going to be our family car ..
It is a weekend car but it is already good enough as we can explore ulu places or farm visiting. Looking forward to more of our field trip & picnic outing (if weather permit).

We will call it our 'Pooh Car' coz soon we are going to deco the interior with lots of Poohsss decorative items that our parents have ordered but stock will be arriving next year.


* Daddy & Mummy's 1st car is Volkwagon Beetle which they had it for 2 years during their stay in France. Though this is not as 'cute' as their former Beetle, it will serve as a good family car with ample space for passengers seated in the back. This is also their 1st car they owned in Singapore.

Thank you, Daddy & Mummy!
