Nice Sat morning and "Driving Ms Emma Joy Foo"

I didn't realise how long it had been since we've blogged... it sure had been veeereeeee long! The last blog was about how Emma was heads over heels over Hello Kitty and Friends. Well, she still is. haha.. no surprise over that right? anyway, one of the Hello Kitty songs was "Green Machine" sung by the froggie Keroppi. It's about his green sports car, which he boasted in his song about being the best car, beating all others to the checkered flag, and sending all the other female kitties screaming "green machine! green machine!"... u should hear it, and especially with the additional backup vocals provided by Emma Joy. =)

well, we went out for breakfast yesterday (saturday) morning at Ghim Moh hawker center. Nice lazy Saturday morning it was, with a nice bowl of beancurd as starters for me, and fishball noodles for Ade. Emma of course snacked from our food. Alright, I did have another few slices of roti prata.. so much for controlling my calories and fat intake, in my bid to control my cholestrol level.. yes, it is HIGH!! so fine, I'm fat on the inside... time to up the ante in my running regime, perhaps to twice daily instead of daily runs that I'm already doing now... sigh...

As we were heading back to the car after breakfast, we saw this bunch of kids going around in battery operated toy cars in an open space just next to the playground. Sure looked like fun, and it sure captured little Emma' attention. We set her down, and she walked around the "garage" of cars, and she seemed to like ALL of them!!! gosh... anyway, there was this "green machine" with froggie pictures on it. It looked very much like Keroppi, and perhaps his Green Machine too. We chose that green car for Emma, since it had a remote with which I could control the car without bending down to hold the steering wheel and strain my back in the process... hehe... that's unmanned remote technology for u!

Needless to say, Emma had a ball of a time "driving" around in her "green machine"... Ade took a video... enjoy the video, and keep your eyes out for Emma's squeals and her "Queen Elizabeth" hand waves. Yes, I think she has lots to learn in terms of keeping her eyes on the front while "driving", but anyway, she didn't mount any sidekerb this time. =)

After seeing how Emma loved the driving experience, I wonder if she'll grow up to be like Ade in liking small but exorbitantly priced cars (like the Mini-Cooper Sports, or the VW Beetle).... *gasp* !!!
