Lagoon Park

This December is a busy month for us. And sure is a exciting month for Indy and Maya as Christmas is almost here.
Indy is on school holiday, so I must bring her some where , to entertain her. Too bad my hubby is very busy this month. 2 weeks ago he couldn't have any day off. So the last week of November, He took a 2 days break and we managed to go to Kundasang. Too bad I my camera didn't work that time and I didn't got the chance to buy a new one then. So no photos from Kundasang.
Then my dh took a day off last week on Thursday and we went to see the "golden compass" which is a great movie!

Indy already watch 3 movies this month! Bee movie, The Enchanted ( very nice and girly movie! :) and then The Golden Compass.

Last Sunday we went to Lagoon Park in Karambunai. near Nexus resort. We went there a few times this year. The last time we went there we had a bbq with friends.This time just us and no bbq , we just pack lunch ( sandwiches, dough nuts, and some croissant ) .


We had a small dip into the beach, and so did Maya. This is not her first time to the beach, but still she act like it! See how happy she is :


Indy even got the chance to show abit of her swim"movement"...kind off..to her dad. And her dad also showed her a bit of tips on how to improve her swimming skills. My hubby was a really good swimmer ( now not as good as before LOL) and he was an active member of boyscout too. He is into rock climbing, scuba diving,motor bike . So for him , he prefer his children to be active in sport rather than got a cum laud mark at school. One of his big disappointment is that Indy still can't ride a bike yet. So this year "Santa" will give Indy a bike! :)



Even though she is not really swimming yet, but a word of encouraging means a thousand words to her. Sometimes we as parents , without we even realize it , we give too much pressure to our children now a days. Keep comparing them to their peers ( who crawl first, walk first , talk first, then who got the better mark at school, who can do it better etc). Below is Indy's face after she got a "glowing mark" for her "swimming skills" from her papa.
After cleaning up, I was trying to get Maya to sleep, but I FAILED. She kept want to go back to the sea! sigh...


Here I want to share , how to loose 10 kg instantly ( without Photoshop editing) :
ask somebody else's kid to cover your bum, then as your own kid to cover you head. Then bend down, and try to keep your toddler from diving into the sea( since she was so excited with the taste of the water!) There you go....10 kg off instantly in the photo! :-D

Ok...I m off to dig those recipes for chocolate chips cookies...IF I have the energy to bake some this year...
