Another Playdate at the Zoo

Worried that it might rain again today, we had the option of gathering at my place as a standby. At 9am, just before I was about to wake Renee up, Karen sms-ed me to cancel the Zoo trip and changed our meet up to 12:30pm at SK. But as I was unpacking the bag, she text again and we finally met at the Zoo at 10:30am :).

We headed straight for the water play(Karen showed me the other side of it) after breezing through the playground(which I didn't know exist) and though we were prepared for a small crowd ast it's towards the end of the school holidays but we had not expected sooo many people there today. With so many older kids at the waterplay, we had to keep a closer watch out for ours, Karen was made wet by some kids though... We spent about an hour there before proceeding for our lunch at KFC where we waited quite a while for our turn at one table and in turn, be waited by others when we were about done hahaha.

Renee, unwilling to end her playdate, invited them over to our place where they had abit more of free-play time :).

At 5pm, we decided to take them downstairs but the playground was packed with kids(more of boys) too! We moved on to the one at the other end, and it was also packed(more of girls, hahaha). These children might be from the new families whom had been moving-in since early this year as I didn't see them around when I used to bring Renee down(but then again, it's been quite a while since I've stopped bringing her down already due to the crowd of children/maids). Our friends decided to head off when we started to feel drizzle but Renee threw a tantrum and even cried on our way home from sending them off to the Compass Point(she wanted to go to the mall). However, the evening turned-out alright though, when she gave/showed me the best attitude during her violin practice! - I had expected her to throw another tanthrum when I corrected her bowing mistakes but instead, she said : "I'm sorry, mommy, I'm sorry" and So, for that, I gave her 2 stars :D

This time round at the Carousel, Renee chose the bench seat as she's afraid that we'll make her ride on the "moving' animals, aiyoh so boring and a waste of my money hahaha
