2011 X'mas-ing (Part 2)

On X'mas day actual, we finally managed to catch up with Jimmy and his family! Me and Ade have been talking about a playdate for months and finally it has materialised!

Here's us, "photo-boothing" while waiting for them to arrive...

 Cookie had tried to camouflage himself with the sofa the night before...

  Ashley found out and tried to strangle him...

  A week shy from turning 10 months, Ashley is able to stand with a lil' support...

The 2 girls' first meet up!!! They were born a day apart in the same hospital...

"Twins"... Hehe... The two bunny girls!

Raeanne & Ashley (White chicks!)

Raeanne, Reyes & Ashley... 3 "Ash-ians" in position...
*Ash-ians: Defined in Randy Chan's dictionary as babies/kids with very light-coloured hair. Like colour of ash. (All 3 kiddos qualify)

(I just noticed that Reyes didn't dare put his arms ard Ash! Hahahahah! Shy or what?!)

 
Mr Edward Cullen & Ms Tin Tin..

Ash: "Return me my X'mas presents!"

 

So cute... The Chia children know how to strike a pose at a young age!

When we were busy eating and talking, I spotted Reyes playing with Ashley and teaching her how to play with the toy. Such a nice big brother... Raeanne will be well protected by her gor gor...

Our victory shot! Survived 4 hours with 3 kiddos!!! (Randy as photographer)

Playdate cum dinner - successful! We'll do that again, hopefully soon!

The next day, we had post-X'mas dinner at Ben & Lydia's place... And I managed to catch a few shots of their princess, Luanne and Ash. It was quite funny, like some sort of alien encounter experience for them.

Ashley, trying to catch hold of Luanne's cute bottle...

I think Luanne was just a lil' fazed with a younger kid and didn't know what to do...So she didn't dare sit too close... Haaaa...

 In spite of that awkward picture moment, Luanne was very sweet. She was very gentle in handling Ashley and touched Ash's hand lightly to tell us that she knows Ashley is still a baby.

Can't believe this year just went by and X'mas came and gone!!!!
