Two of K's firsts

We've been wanting to bring K for a movie but never know for certain if she'd sit thru one. We decided to try, but to watch one at the usual weekend screenings at the club so we could just walk out if she got too restless but yet not feel too terrible about the ridiculous amount we pay for the tix.

We waited for a suitable movie that we thought she might be interested in. On 5 Sep, we brought her to watch her first movie. A BBC documentary no less! It was one on meerkats. It was 83 mins long and she sat through most of it. Only during the last 10 to 15 mins she was restless and started to play with the water in her bottle. But what a feat for a 20 mths old. Although she didn't want to sit on her own seat throughout the movie. Well done, little one.

We shall have to do this more often until she can sit through one. Then it would be movies at the cinema proper, cheesy cornchips and popcorn!



On 12 Sep, we brought her to her first live concert. It was the Hi-5 Surprise concert. Initially, we weren't very keen to go because we very much prefer the old cast but we got complimentary tix from the Chengs. We are very glad we went.

This cast turned out to be much much better live than during studio recording....very weird. But we enjoyed it very much. K was happy just to sit on our laps throughout and only warmed up during intermission where she went wild dancing. During the second part of the concert, she was uncontrollable and almost did forward rolls on my lap several times. Funny girl.
