Water splashing

I had a round of water splashing activity at Great Grandma's place today. Mum thinks I won't like swimming, but kept bringing me to the pool for some water splashing fun until I'm comfortable with the pool.

Early Evening is good for swim, while Mr Sun still shines
 
More water fun on the way.

Visitation Continues

I'm still collecting ang bao. This evening, Daddy and Mummy had a wonderful time of fellowship with their friends. We began by visiting auntie and uncle Ray's new home. It's very beautiful!

Didn't bring my swim wear. Sobs

After this, we attended Sarah's birthday party at Aloha, and Her Mummy is pregnant with baby number 2, that's fast! Sarah is only about 1.5 months older than me. Mummy's still thinking about her addition... 2011, 2012, 2013 or ???? Time tells. 

With Mummy's friends

In the night, Daddy's friends came over for soccer and beer. The typical men's lifestyle. Baby Lucas was here too. I had a great time playing and sleeping. Shy shy, I shared my bed with another boy. 

Lucas loves my playpen
Lucas is the longest occupant in the playpen. I only want to get out
After fun and milk, was bedtime for us

And after our bedtime, Mum and Dad sneaked out of home to continue drinks session elsewhere!

Peek at my school

School celebrated 'yuan xiao jie' today. It also dictated the school's open house for new intakes. Activities were fun filled, there were lantern making session, tang yuan making, face and hand painting and food of course! Mummy and me turned up in our favourite colour, blue! There were so many children and parents. 
 
This was how I spent my morning with Dad and Mum: 
 
I got my right arm painted with flowers!
 
Aren't they beautiful?

The playground is too sunny for play

"Daddy, why is 'fu' upside down?"

May we have a smooth sailing year

I love the drum!

Lion head!

I can only eat the watermelon. The rest are Mum and Dad's.

Mum didn't know that the popiah was spicy, and she gave it to me. I gave an undesirable expression, and spat it out. Training came early huh. After that, Mum gave me an egg mayo sandwich. As usual, Daddy is complaining about the different food she introduced to me. He alerted that I've just recovered from diarrhoea and egg mayo contains egg white.

Look at the number of shoes outside the door!
Mummy spotted how I climbed onto the chair to sit
After all the fun... it's back to class. This was where I bid goodbye to Mum and Dad

School is really fun, especially when learning is through play. Mum and Dad are paying costly fees to the school. There are frequent thoughts of wanting me to go to a cheaper school once I turn older, a toddler. Comparing the fees among schools, the amount is really drastic, Mummy could use the money for more shopping. But Mum and Dad are so comfortable with me in this school. The problem is, once it gets comfortable, it's just hard to go for the other options.

Oh, noted mummy's new hairstyle? I couldn't recognise her after her salon trip early this week. It took me half a minute to realise she's my mama!

Another Eeyore added

I think I'm obsessed with Eeyore. I've one that I need to hug and sleep with every night. This evening, Mum and Dad were out dining with their friends. Dad brought me for a walk while Mum continues her dinner. I came back with a new Eeyore! Mummy gave Daddy the blank look and said, " Another toy added? She has one already." Daddy was quick to reply, "She didn't want to let go, she chose that of all the plushes." And that defines my Daddy... never fails to buy me toys! 
 
Holding tight to my new collection

Maybe Mummy should try this method when she shops, hold on to her desires and not let go. Then Daddy will have no choice but to buy it! Begin with diamonds, Mum.

Group hug for Eeyore... welcome to the family

Watching over my bum

Bedtime with Eeyores 

Daddy explains that they're in different outfit, so there's a reason to buy.


Sometimes I would love to carry Eeyore whenever I go. If Grandma is carrying me, she would say she has no strength to carry both, it's either me or Eeyore. What a tough choice. And when my teeth gets itchy, I would chew on any parts of Eeyore. Grandma would say that Eeyore feels painful, and asked me to not bite on him. Grandma is so funny!

With one hand

I'm able to hold my bottle during milk time. It's a matter of laziness. Sometimes I'll just hold for awhile before letting go for Mummy to feed. This morning, mummy discovered that I could actually do this with just one hand. Again, the lazy me is only willing to do it for awhile. I just prefer to be fed by Mummy.
 
I guess I'm gonna be a right-hander (Mummy's follower). Daddy is a left-hander

Not failing to 'Love Love' my little Eeyore

Mummy's looking forward to the day when I can be left alone during milk feeds.

Mummy's busy...

Just hours ago, I was cruising my way to mummy, where she was sitting on her armchair with focus set on her laptop screen. As usual, I was being very sticky to her, I reached out both my hands, whined a little and wanted her to carry me. She turned to me and said,"Mummy's busy now, Jazz." She then paused a moment for some thoughts... 
 
How many times will she be saying this as I grow by? Busy - An excuse or reason that's easy to give, yet gives her guilt. She doesn't want to keep brushing me off with busy as a reason or maybe that was an excuse. It's startling when she soon realizes she has time for me some day, I won't need her to carry me anymore. Life sometimes work this way, tomorrow, another day, next time and then it might not be needed anymore. 
 
Anyway, after that short moment of thought, she carried me and allowed me to randomly tap on her keyboard for play. That's my favourite activity for now... tapping the keyboard!
 
Thank you Mummy for your love!

Nose is runny

My nose is running like a tap. All onto Mummy's shoulder... Yucky! I don't like it when Mummy cleans my nose, it has to stop leaking real soon! Get well quickly! 

Mucus... Eeeei Eeeww

New addition

I visited Universal Studio!

I'm down with a fever, cold, cough and diarrhoea. It's irritating to have them back on me, I feel so unwell. Sigh! I skipped school today because Dad wants to bring me to the doctor and we had also pre-planned a trip to Universal Studio, Yes! The one at Sentosa! We had some complimentary tickets from our kind neighbour and these tickets were fully redeemable on meals as well. It was a cashless day! Except for a shirt Mummy bought for herself and the exuberant parking fees!

I may be sick, but I'm not missing out the fun. We went ahead with the plan. I think I wasn't enjoying as much as I think I could. Apart from being sick, I was very sleepy too. We arrived at about 5p.m and strolled the place till 9 p.m. That's lots of walking! Not for me of course, I was being carried on rotated duties. Using the pram only for nap, naughty me.

The place is fun! We met many interesting movie characters like the kung fu panda, Beetle Juice, Ms Bo Beep etc. The rides and shows were not open to our $10 tickets of course, but we had good fun with just this entry. The staff and crew are very friendly, and for being new, the place is very clean!

Here are some pictures for sharing. Mummy thinks I'm not in the mood for anything, she didn't catch my smile at all. Or maybe, I'm just a cool baby when it comes to camera. 
 
Sun kissing our faces

Don't want to be eaten... Nooooo!
It's Madagascar

The Kung Fu Panda!

Jelly beans! Yummy!

We emerged from dino egg

Practice walking with the huge space around

The Queen, Princess and their palace

It's Adam and Even behind... don't think they were overweight

Though just an evening, it felt like a whole long day. Our legs are so sore from all the walking, except mine. It was a good work out indeed. Thank you neighbour for blessing us with the tickets. Though daddy kept comparing this Universal to that in Los Angeles we visited, Mum feels it's the companionship, much more than the sights. I went with Mum and Dad to the Universal in LA too, when I was in Mum's womb. 
 
It's so much fun this festive season! And now, fun aside, I need more sleep to get my good health back.

Where's my double lid?

Mummy has, Daddy has, so I thought I'll have those double eyelids too. Mummy wonders where are mine... I recalled having them at birth... but they're lost now. Hmm... never mind, I'm the true Asian beauty! 

Me at 0 month, spot the lids

Me at 'Now.' My eyes are still beautiful!

Well, Daddy says those lids will develop as I grow. He's so confident of me!

Visit to River Hong Bao

How true is it when we say, "time flies when you're having fun." I had so much fun from the days of celebration, and tomorrow, it's back to school. Mummy always say, school is fun! I'm happy to be back.
Yesterday was a long and tiring day. I began visitation in the afternoon and then hung out with grandparents till late. We had dinner at Raffles City, then strolled over to River Hong Bao. I enjoyed the crowd, decorations and atmosphere. We stayed out so late that I slept while everyone were still out enjoying. I was pram-less, as Mum's afraid of the crowd and paths that may be pram unfriendly. 
 
Here are my moments of fun:
 
Sliding fun while grandparents are having dinner

Come closer Mummy

Water fountain

With Grandpa

On a tiger with Grandpa and Grandma

"Fainted" on Grandma's shoulder


It was a great time of bonding with everyone! Everyone took turns to carry me, and of all, Xiao jiu is the strongest. He could carry me for long without complaining arm ache. It's so 'useful' to have him at outings.

Double celebration

Chinese new year seems to have overshadowed Valentines day this year. Everyone's too focus on visitation, food and ang baos. Mummy didn't receive her flowers, but she didn't prepare Dad's gift either... Oops! Instead, I did... See! 
 
I made this in school early this week. My toes made up the petals

To Daddy and Mummy with love!
 
Valentines day is the opposite of CNY, whereby celebration is between 2 person. CNY is a celebration with many people. This night, Mum and Dad were steamboat-ing and alcohol-ing with Grandpa, Grandma, Xiao Jiu, Da Jiu and their girlfriends. Daddy took out the long kept alcohol for this occasion. Mum couldn't drink when she was pregnant and breastfeeding, now she can! In the midst of these, I was so soundly asleep. Even the mahjong and karaoke singing kept me still in bed. Daddy subscribed to Starhub's ktv channel, and we all had fun singing. I enjoyed the children's songs too! Here are some photo journal the first day of CNY:

Too tired, slept on Great Grandparent's sofa

Okie, do the sums. My collection for today!

Oh, Pillow got ang bao from grandparents too!
