I picked this up from Carol’s blog. If you find it interesting, let me know what are your 3s.
Here we go.
Three names I go by (besides my name): 1. Ah Ling 2. Lao Por 3. Ah-mee (that’s what Xy calls me)
Three Jobs I have had [...]

Airport, Care Bears but no Aeroplanes
Posted in Out and about, Xinyue on July 20, 2009 | 4 Comments »
We had planned to go to Tampines One but it was so packed that we could not even get into the carpark. In the end, we decided to head further east to the airport for a late lunch.
I think the airport is a great place to go when you have young children. There are [...]
Home-made lunch
Posted in Baking and cooking, Daily musings, Me stuff, Work on July 16, 2009 | 2 Comments »
In an effort to avoid the office cafeteria’s MSG-laden food, I have started bringing lunch to work.
Most days, it is an egg/tuna/chicken mayo sandwich and a salad. I prepare the filling the evening before and make the sandwich in the morning. Usually there are extras and KJ eats them for breakfast.
I’d admit that [...]

A few nights ago, I woke up to Xy’s whines to find her crawling off her mattress in a half-asleep state. Her eyes were still closed but she was heading towards the door on all fours.
Without the safe enclosure of a cot or a playpen, there is really no way of stopping her from [...]

This would have been Xy’s 3rd bed within a space of 15 months.
We switched to a playpen just barely 2 months ago but she has been sleeping rather fitfully. Actually she’s never been a good sleeper but it just got worse and we were desperate to find a solution.
Finally we decided to let her [...]
Xinyue : 15 months

We have settled into a weekend routine where we let Xy splash about in her inflated kiddy pool. She likes to waddle around in circles, occasionally makes a weak attempt to splash water at us.
As she grows older, she has learnt to express her own opinion on things, food preferences included. To our constant amusement, [...]
Journey to the West

The Singapore Science Centre is currently featuring a Da Vinci Exhibition and under the strong persuasion of my sister-in-law, almost everyone in the entire Poh family embarked on a journey to the west.
It has been eons since we visited the SSC; the last time was when they featured a Lord of the Rings exhibition almost [...]
URTI

I often see these 4 alphabets on the MCs which my company doctor issues.
URTI, scribbled under diagnosis.
It was only recently when I realised that it stands for Upper Respiratory Tract Infection. In English, this translates into the everyday flu. Runny nose, sore throat, cough and the occasional fever that comes with all these symptoms.
Also [...]
