Malta

It is the Christmas holidays, and as Mummy and I didn't have to go to school for some time, we decided to go for a holiday to Malta. We saw many churches, cathedrals and statues, as well as enjoyed the beautiful scenery, the sea and the sunshine.

We also went sightseeing and shopping...

... and took a ride in a horse carriage. Oh yes, apart from Daddy and Mummy, Uncle Daniel also joined us in Malta for a holiday.

After the carriage ride, Daddy tried to feed me to the horse!

There were so many things to do in Malta. I spent some time enjoying the view from our hotel room:

In addition, I enjoyed swinging with Daddy and Mummy:

But the best part of the holiday was the time that I spent dancing in the hotel bar!

Almost Christmas

Christmas is coming soon, but we won't be at home this year to celebrate it at Ah Ma's house. There are Christmasy things to see and do in Cambridge though, and Christmas parties to attend.

1. The shops have started selling gingerbread men. I really enjoyed decorating them, but they're not that nice to eat.

2. Mummy brought me to a children's christmas party at Churchill College. The magician made a rabbit appear out of a chocolate-filled box, and the rabbit ate all the chocolates without sharing them with me. But because I had been a good girl, Santa Claus gave me a box of chocolates as a present.

3. Mummy also invited Daddy and I to a Christmas party at her school. This Santa Claus also gave me a present - a bag of chocolate snowballs and snowmen =D



4. The shopping centres were also decorated to give a festive atmosphere. While the decorations were not as elaborate as those back home, Mummy likes them because they are simple and elegant.

London Museums

Mummy was in London to watch a varsity rugby match today, so Daddy decided to bring me around London to do some sightseeing. We went to the Science Museum, where there were many cars and aeroplanes.



We then went to the Natural History Museum (again) to see dinosaurs. Daddy's really fascinated with them, much more than I am, haha.



We ended the day with a nice treat - yummy ice-cream from MacDonalds!

Randomness

Daddy took a random photo of me at home today while I was lying down on the cool wooden floor. So cute right?

Colin

I want to marry Colin when I grow up, and I have been having a series of conversations with Daddy and Mummy about my future marriage plans:

Conversation 1
Me: Daddy, why does Ber Ber (Daddy's brother) call me Princess?
Daddy: Because you are our princess lor.
Me: Princess must marry prince? But Colin is not a prince, I cannot marry him?
Daddy: I am a King and I can make Colin a prince so that you can marry him
Me: Ok!

Conversation 2
Daddy: Zoe you so big already, can Mummy and I eat you?
Me: Noooo! I want to grow bigger.... so that I can marry Colin!

Conversation 3
Mummy: Zoe can you don't suck your thumb anymore? Later your finger not pretty how?
Me: *Bursts into tears* I want to be pretty so that I can marry Colin!

So tired...

I was so tired this afternoon, but Daddy and Mummy insisted on going out to Tesco to buy groceries. I wanted Daddy to carry me so that I could lie on his shoulder, but Daddy came up with a brilliant plan instead.

Here's my new temporary bed :D

Silly Daddy

I had a fun day with silly Daddy today. When we went grocery shopping in the afternoon, Daddy made the Little Men and Little Miss sit with me in the shopping cart. Silly Daddy didn't believe me when I said there was no space for all of us.




Then in the evening, silly Daddy couldn't stop me from talking. I managed to keep my silly Daddy quiet though, haha. I love my silly Daddy!

Library and friends

We used to go to the libary every week when we were back home, but since we arrived in Cambridge, we haven't yet been to one. So this afternoon, for the first time, Daddy and Mummy brought me to the library to borrow books. This is the outside of the library:



In the evening, we had friends over for dinner. We often eat at Kaijie's house, so today was Daddy's and Mummy's turn to cook dinner instead. Mummy's classmate, Uncle Wee Siang and his family also came over for dinner. The three of us - Kaijie, Portia and I, had a lot of fun playing with the Wii afterwards.

Face painting

As part of the Children in Need day in the nursery today, we came to school in our pyjamas. It was a day for us to do something different and raise funds for charity. So, we tried out face-painting today. I am supposed to be a (pink and purple) tiger, roaaar!

London (Part 2)

After a good night's sleep in Chloe's house, we continued our sightseeing in London today with Daddy and Mummy's friends. I took a photo with Uncle Sebas at Trafalgar Square, where the sun was shining brightly in my eyes.



Next, we walked to a place when we saw guards in red riding on black horses.



Along the way, we passed by a place with many pigeons. I ran after them, but they all flew away before I could catch them.



We also went to visit Buckingham Palace...



... as well as the Big Ben.

After walking around all morning, Mummy brought me to a church in Bayswater for mass. It was a very small and old church, and Mummy said that she used to go there for mass every week a long time ago when she was studying in London. After lunch (where we had duck rice at the famous Four Seasons restaurant), we went window shopping at Whiteleys. The Muji shop had a cute white paper penguin that looked like me:

To finish off our weekend in London, we went out for dinner. Daddy and I went back to Bayswater for dinner with Chloe and some of his friends, while Mummy went to Leicester Square. After dinner, we went to meet Mummy so that we could go back home together. We remembered just in time to take a photo before we parted ways =P
