There’s been a lot of tension around here but I’ve said what I needed to say so it’s back to regular programming today. Everyone, take a deep breath and relax!
So two weekends ago, we had a very eventful Drypers Little Day Out at Big Splash.
It was really nice of Drypers to plan everything just so that families could spend some quality time and have a bit of fun outdoors. The event was held in conjunction with the launch of the new Best Ever Drypers – Drypers Soft, Drypers Wee Wee DRY and Drypers DRYPantz, which are now available in stores. The kids have been on the new ranges for the past month and I’m looking forward to testing out the all new supersoft Drypers Soft for Finn. Speaking of, I’m giving birth in less than 2 months…OK NEED TO STOP HYPERVENTILATING.
Anyhow, all we needed to do was show up to enjoy all the rides and activities – totally my kind of event.
On a bunny trail, I have no idea where the kids learnt to do the 2-finger peace sign while taking pictures but it’s like their default picture pose these days. I’d be appalled if it wasn’t so insanely cute.
Time for a Math question: If each kid holds up 2 fingers and daddy holds up 6, how many posers are there?
Moving along, we may have found the coolest carnival game ever. This is Truett holding what looks like a real crossbow, only instead of real arrows, it was replaced with child-friendly suction arrows. Not to brag or anything but this little marksman hit a bullseye on his second try and there was like an audible cheer from the queue of parents. I wanted to give it a shot too but he kind of set the bar pretty high so I totally chickened out.
Besides the carnival booths, there were also kiddy train rides and carousel rides, which are always a hit with the kids.
And then we wrapped up the evening with an outdoor screening of Alvin and the Chipmunks-Chipwrecked under the stars, which was a really cool idea, especially for parents with kids. When the kids got restless, they could fidget and munch on snacks and ask annoying questions without getting shushed or given dirty looks by irate neighbors.
All in all, it was a splendid way to spend a Saturday with the family. Props to all the folks at Drypers who worked so hard to put it all together.

I went for this… But when I reached (at around 6pm), I chickened out at the HEAT, and we decided to retreat to Old Town for some coffee (and snacks for the kids) till it was sundown! Hahaha… Jay tried the crossbow thingy too, and killed it. I didn’t bother to try it after him either! Hahaha…

Yeah the heat was pretty crazy – we had to take shelter at Carl’s Junior too!
Still loving your regular programming! :D
Heh thanks! More of that to come…
A lot of people will have a lot to say about everything. What matters most is what is impt most to yourself and your family.
Glad you had such a fun family day :) Props indeed to companies who know how to create an experience, not just a boring promotion for a product!

True that!
Daphne, how is it that you’re due in a couple of months’ but you don’t even look the least bit pregnant at all?!
Gotta love regular programming. :)
I’d say it’s a combination of strategic placement of the kids plus a little bit of camera magic. I was just at the gynae this morning and I was told to go on a diet because the baby is 300g overweight – so depressing
Ya in fact you look prettier. If I didn’t already know you expecting Finn, I would guess you are having a girl because old folks believe you will look prettier if you expecting a girl. If its a boy, your nose will be big and red, you will look really fat and clumsy.
Yeah I heard that before too.. thankfully I didn’t get the big and red nose for all 3 pregnancies phew!
Hi Daphne,
You look great in the last picture, I can hardly see your baby bump. Looking at these pics, I’ll say that it’s certainly my kinda event too. But too bad, I missed it.

Thanks Emily!
Hi Daphne,
Hope all is well and you are not too affected by the negative comments people posted. Let’s leave this matter to God and to the justice of the Law, while standing alongside with your leaders and your people. Just to let you know that a lot of other churches and Christians are praying too.
Love the bright and colorful photos you took. Sounds like a great event!
