Movie date - Cinderella

14 March 2015. The last time I took the girls to a movie was in November for Big Hero 6. Kayley slept during the cartoon movie. I don't think Kayley is ready for an adult movie so I went to the Cinderella movie with Chloe, just the two of us.

It was a long day. We started with her an hour long kids jazz class at 1230 at Pomo. I will take train with her from tpy to dhoby ghaut.  She relaxes in her stroller while I pushed her in the hot sun. That was her 4th class. She danced to songs like Moves Like Jagger by Maroon 5 and Rather Be by Clean Bandit.

Next stop eduplus chinese class at bishan from 230pm to 4pm.

The movie was 430pm at bishan j8. As usual before the movie, the theatre was playing trailers for other upcoming movies. Maybe chloe was tired or she was really excited about the movie, so she kept asking me if the movie was going to start. After about an hour of the movie she said she was tired and started to fidget in her seat. At the scene where the stepmother tore cinderella's dress, chloe was afraid and sad, so she hid under my jacket. She survived the movie that was near 2 hours but was very tired at the end. I kept repeating the key takeaways for the movie - have courage, be kind, and believe in magic.

When we were home, the girls were fighting over the ipad, and I said to chloe be kind, and her reply was 'whatever'. #facepalm

To commemorate our movie date, I bought her a cinderella story book.

Number 3

Number 3 aka upper front tooth dropped on 5 Mar 15. It was the last day of CNY. The chia family gathered at TPY for steamboat. Chloe's tooth has been shaky for some days. It dropped when she was playing lion dance with kayley under a blanket. Aloysius alerted me. Chloe was teary but didn't cry. She said Aloysius knocked her. Her gums were bloody. I think it was a premature loss. There was no blood when number 1 and 2 dropped. So daddy had to go 7-11 and buy coke for the upset little girl. She got over it pretty fast and she wanted mummy to show everyone her tooth because she was shy to do it on her own. She then looked forward to the visit of tooth fairy. This time 3 gold dollar coins. Dentist says at times the upper front tooth will take 6 to 9 months to grow. Erm. I hope it won't take that long.

29 Oct 14 - 1st loss lower front
23 Nov 14 - 2nd loss lower front
5 Mar 15 - 3rd loss upper front (premature)
