Last weekend, after our excursion at Downtown East in the day, we went to James's uni pal, Chwee Ling's place at Telok Blangah in the night time. Haha, as usual, we are among the last to arrive at 8.30p.m cos the kids needed to sleep and I had to settle their dinner before we could leave. Guimei, Jasmine and Wenshan were so excited to see the 2 kids though they just saw the 2 little Js during our X'mas gathering. James and I were famished and we could actually sit down and enjoy the great feast as the 3 ladies were busy fussing over our 2 kids and loved to play with them. We've got great babysitters, hehe! Guimei prepared a lot of dishes like home-made pizza, satay etc and the lovel host prepared ribs which they marinated themselves. Impressed! Perhaos we were starving so we finished almost all!
Chwee Ling recently ROMed with Gaowei but their customary will only be later in Dec this year. Both are simpletons who did not re-renovate the place though it was resale. The house furnishings looked well maintained though and there was even a bath tub amidst the 5-rm flat! Our friends loved to play with our 2 kiddies and the 2 were friendly towards them too. Though both were a bit sick, down with flu and cough, they still enjoyed playing with the aunties.
Soon after, Jasmine and Guimei left with their partners and the remaining group of us played board games similar to charade. We split up into males vs. females and had fun several rounds till it was put to a halt by our dear Jovan who made 'gold mine' ! Well, as they had no kids, so we had to scramble finding a suitable place to change Jovan. Intially, Chwee Ling even suggested their dining table which they STRESSED they really don't mind. However, we were really paiseh so managed to find a corner where it's breezy. James's friends looked at both of us changing his nappy and commented next time they would need to engage us when they have kids haha!
A surprise was in store for us when we saw a kaya cake for James! It wasn;t really a birthday cake but the taste was splendid. All listened to Jovin's sweet voice as she sang birthday song for her dearest daddy in English and Chinese. James's best pal, Krist looked so envious. Jovin enjoyed the cake and all of us had wine to boost the nite. It was a wonderful gathering spent with them. Looking forward to our next meet-p during Jovan's 1 yr old birthday bash on 28 Feb :)
