The Trafford Centre

We went back to the Trafford Centre to day to return Amelie's dress which she didn't like and also gave Chien and I a chance to buy the various gifts to take back to Taiwan for the good people at my workplace and at Chien's too. Our main stop was at Thornton's, famous for their chocolates and sweets, and we bought a lot!

We had to ditch Amelie with my mum and grandparents so we could do the shopping. It was a bad thing to do, but it was the only way to sneak away while Amelie was occupied so that we could get the gift shopping down swiftly.

I also took the opportunity to take some pictures of the shopping centre, apparently one of the biggest in Europe. Amelie seemed to enjoyed the dolphin water fountain which squirted water at high pressure over two stories high!

Nothing to report really, just more shopping and more money spent :-p. No games for me a long time now!

Happy 2nd Birthday Amelie!

Another step up the age ladder for my daughter Amelie (populary known as Tongtong too). Time certainly has flown, and with each day, it doesn't get any easier! She's started to form her own opinions and learning to express them in various different ways. She's a clever little one, but still lacks a certain amount of discipline. That's probably going to come from me, because Chien-yu is a little soft. I just hope she knows it for own good when I give her the smack-botty when she steps out of line. Last night we sang her the birthday song just before we slept (its was about 1am already). After a couple of choruses, she picked it up quickly and sang her own birthday song! Well, almost anyway, because sounded like "Hapi tu tu tu you". More practise for next year! I will add photos later on this evening.

Amelie Back In Taiwan, Reunion With Mister Donuts

Amelie finally back in Taiwan! Have missed her for three months, but have been busy at work, not had chance to catch up with her. However, Amelie did some catching up herself...with her favourite Mister Donuts! You must cut down on those foods!

Superman Snappy

Snap the man of steel and score points! My first attempt, I got 82. This will just have to do until I get a new camera.
