Afterword

27 mths old hand vs ..... adult hand
hahaha!

Yes! I'm happier than her.
Because this is one of the 2 situations she'll want me to carry her.

situation 1: look for mommy
situation 2: go on a carousel (she'll come to me with arms open) =)

I was very delighted upon seeing the Expiration Date is 10 years later!

Yes, I should have known. There isn't such a good deal...

Went through these hassle in exchange for 2 questions posted by Cheyenne.

1) On the day of our arrival, bro n family picked us up at LAX. Grandma carried Cheyenne and she asked: 'Where's 姑姑?'
I was in the washroom.

2) On  the day of our departure, only bro sent us to the airport. He reached home and Cheyenne asked: 'Where's 姑姑?'
Bro says: 姑姑 went back Singapore...

After hearing these, all efforts are worth it and I sustained my No. 3 position. Yeah!! Love Cheyenne! Muacks!!

Cheyenne [Oct 2010]

My 1st picture of u on the day of our arrival

look at her eyes

still looking...

one of her favourites

little girl is tired...

she seems like a big girl from this angle...  



this is how she drinks.. like an adult.

 Girl, slides are not meant to 'walk' up...

this look is so unfamiliar to me.

she's unhappy

Minnie Mouse - her Halloween costume this year!

Random takes

Carpools Lane
(this is good for big cities like LA)

unique shape door entrance

these cranes remind me of dinosaurs. ;p



complicated cabling

This caught my attention..


Not sure what is this place but all the vehicles are white!
