Long weekend (aug 9-11)

Day 1: Test drive day:
It's SUV that's it! that's all i can write... wait till the next post.
The adventure : Daddy started to drive after adjusting the driver seat, steereing wheel and mirrors. Driving on the highways with speeds of 100 to 120. vivian got comfortable right away at the back seat while I was checking the interior and manual. we headed to city centre for groceries around 2pm then, needing to return it at 5pm, we decided to pass by the house first to unload the groceries. after a long drive. daddy parked the vehicle in front of the gate, i saw his head going left and right, hands going all over the pockets, was thinking what the... he shouted, "forgot the house keys in the other car!" which was, by the way, in the parking lot of the car showroom.... harharhar daddy is getting old.... so we just left and went straight to return the SUV and transfer things to the car. bye bye SUV hopefully we will see you again!
Day 2: Pictorial Day

"daddy! vivian! time to take a bath!", as i was cleaning the tv room and viv's room then set up a "mini studio" t0 the first ever dad& daughter and the family photo op (viv & i just had it 2 wks ago). overall it's fun, another way of bonding and realization. viv, who is used to project in front of the camera since she was a baby. now she wants it her way ... the pose, facial expressions and even clothes to wear (we argued about it for quite a while)....2 more years and i won't have a say anymore.. even daddy can't do the superman lift to her anymore, (really had a hard time doing that pose) can't believe how time flies... sigh. 'til my next project =).

Day 3 : Stayed at home
The chores: I was preparing breakfast while daddy started to clean the car and front yard. the little girl was trying to help out, first with daddy but she was sent to the kitchen =), helped me with the juicer and set up the table. we had our normal yummy breakfast.
The drama: Vivian was not allowed to watch tv for a while, she pretended not to hear us while talking to her. daddy noticed it, as this was not the first for the week. she was sent to her room and no tv for the day. truly breaking our hearts every time we needed to punish her. we put a serious face on getting her disciplined..... for an hour =) then i called her to listen to the high school musical 2 OST. She gave us hugs and kisses and said sorry.
Do your own thing: Daddy was catching up on reading the new harry book. mommy on the computer. vivian taking a nap. ended the day watching "the wedding singer" (one of my all time fav) with vivian. daddy was still reading.
